D Correct answer
Explanation

Option D is the most appropriate system message - it's clear, professional, and helpful. It identifies the error precisely ('Invalid Employee Code'), explains what needs to be done ('select the right code'), and provides context ('from the Employee List'). Options A and B are too informal or abrupt ('Wrong input!' or unclear), while C is less helpful than D.
