  The SAP error message 5Y654 indicates that the specified infotype (in this case, represented by &1) is not found for the specified periods (&2 and &3). This error typically occurs in the context of Human Capital Management (HCM) or Personnel Administration when trying to access or process employee data.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Infotype Data: The infotype specified may not have been created for the employee in the given time frame. This could be due to data entry errors or the infotype not being relevant for that employee.
  Incorrect Periods: The periods specified may not align with the periods for which the infotype is valid. For example, if the infotype is only valid for a specific date range, and you are trying to access it outside of that range, this error will occur.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the system that prevent the infotype from being recognized or accessed properly.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the infotype data.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Infotype Data: Verify if the infotype exists for the employee in the specified periods. You can do this by using transaction codes like PA20 (Display HR Master Data) or PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data) to check the infotype records.
  Review Validity Periods: Ensure that the periods you are trying to access are valid for the infotype. If the infotype is not valid for those periods, you may need to adjust your query or data entry.
  Create Missing Infotype Records: If the infotype is indeed missing, you may need to create the necessary records for the employee for the specified periods.
  Check Configuration: If you suspect a configuration issue, consult with your SAP HCM administrator or technical team to ensure that the infotype is properly configured and available for use.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the infotype. This can be checked in transaction SU53 (Display Authorization Check) after the error occurs.
