How To Fix 5Z122 - Validity period of infotype is not valid

5Z122 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 5Z - IS-HR/PSG Public Sector Payroll - Germany

• Message number: 122

• Message text: Validity period of infotype is not valid

What causes this issue?

The validity period of the infotype covers a period of more than one
calendar year. This is only possible if the "Headcount, Change to
Headcount" field does not show an increase or decrease (value 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, or space).
This restriction is set since the pension recipient statistics are
always created in January and, for this reason, a personnel number can
only be reported once as an increase or decrease; the infotype is always
evaluated for January.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Delimit the infotype to the end of the year (December 31).
