How To Fix HRBAS00CUST127 - The table infotype &1 cannot have substructure &2

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HRBAS00CUST - HR: Customizing Checks

• Message number: 127

• Message text: The table infotype &1 cannot have substructure &2

What causes this issue?

The table infotype &V1& is a "real" table infotype with its own
database table &V3&, in which the system stores table information.
For that reason there is no point in the table having a repeat
structure &V2& as well, as was the case for earlier table infotypes.
In "old" table infotypes table information was stored in a so-called
repeat structure. A given structure was included in the infotype
several times in succession.
