• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 3E154 - No & Infotype record ?

  The SAP error message 3E154 ("No & Infotype record") typically occurs when the system is unable to find a specific infotype record for an employee or object in the Human Capital Management (HCM) module. This error can arise in various contexts, such as when trying to access employee data, perform actions related to personnel administration, or during payroll processing.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Infotype Record: The most common cause is that the specific infotype record does not exist for the employee or object in question. This could be due to data not being maintained or deleted.
  Incorrect Personnel Number: The personnel number entered may be incorrect or does not correspond to an existing employee.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the database, such as records that were not properly saved or were corrupted.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the infotype records.
  Time Frame Issues: The infotype record may exist, but not for the time period being queried.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Infotype Records: Use transaction codes like PA20 (Display HR Master Data) or PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data) to check if the infotype record exists for the specified personnel number.
  Verify Personnel Number: Ensure that the personnel number you are using is correct and corresponds to an active employee in the system.
  Maintain Missing Records: If the infotype record is indeed missing, you may need to create or maintain it using the appropriate transaction (e.g., PA30).
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the infotype records. This may involve checking roles and permissions in the user profile.
  Review Time Period: Make sure you are querying the correct time period. If the infotype is valid only for a specific date range, ensure that your query falls within that range.
  Consult with HR Team: If you are unsure about the data or need assistance, consult with your HR team or SAP support team for further investigation.
