Raise Error Message in ESS for invalid Mobile number IT0105 - 9004

Question

Hi Experts,
I was asked to put a small validation on mobile number being entered by user in his personal details (to check country code).
As we are using both PA30 and ESS, I have implemented both the BADI's
HRPAD00INFTY (for PA30) and HRPAD00INFTYDB (under enhancement spot HRPAD00INFTYBL) for ESS.
My first one is working fine and stops user from entering wrong mobile number.
Coming onto second one for ESS, I have written my coding in the method IF_EX_HRPAD00INFTYDB~UPDATE_DB as follows
    CASE infty.
    handle infotype 0105
      WHEN '0105'.
        CASE subty.
          WHEN '9004'.
            ASSIGN operation-old_pnnnn->* TO <old_p0105>.
            ASSIGN operation-new_pnnnn->* TO <new_p0105>.
            ASSIGN operation-new_psref->* TO <new_psref>.
            ASSIGN operation-old_psref->* TO <old_psref>.
            CASE operation-opera.
        UPDATE
              WHEN if_hrpa_masterdata_db=>update_operation.
                lv_prefix1 = <new_p0105>-usrid+0(4).
                IF lv_prefix1 EQ '9715'.
                  lv_length = STRLEN( <new_p0105>-usrid ).
                  lv_length = lv_length - 4.
                  IF lv_length NE 12.
                    RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE cx_hrpa_violated_assertion.
                  ENDIF.
                ELSE.
                    RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE cx_hrpa_violated_assertion.
                ENDIF.
Now though this method is getting trigged and doing the validation perfectly, it is resulting in RUNTIME ERROR due to "RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE cx_hrpa_violated_assertion" which is un-caught.
Can any one please let me know how to send back the error message without runtime error so that user has clear knowledge of mistake that he has done.
Appreciate any help in this regard,
Thanks,
Lakshmi Narayana

Why don't you use HRPAD00INFTYUI instead?
