This error indicates that there are conflicting garnishment infotypes that need to be addressed before you can proceed with the action you are attempting (such as creating or modifying a garnishment record).
  Cause:
  The error arises when there are multiple garnishment infotypes (such as infotype 0075 for garnishments) associated with the same employee, and the system requires that these be resolved before allowing further changes. This can happen if:

  Ensure that you are only keeping the necessary garnishment records that are valid and applicable.
  
  
  
  Check for Validity Periods:
  
  Ensure that the validity periods of the garnishment records do not overlap. If they do, you may need to adjust the start and end dates of the records.
