  The SAP error message HRBAS00DLG871 indicates that there is inconsistent data in the original entry assignment for a personnel action or infotype. This error typically arises when there are discrepancies in the data that is being processed, such as missing or incorrect information in the infotype records.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Inconsistency: The error often occurs when there are inconsistencies between the data in the infotype and the data in the database. This can happen if:
  
  Required fields are missing.
  The data format is incorrect.
  There are conflicts between different infotypes (e.g., overlapping validity periods).
  Changes were made to the infotype that were not properly saved or committed.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Personnel Action: If the personnel action being processed does not align with the existing data (e.g., trying to assign a position that is not valid for the employee), this can trigger the error.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to make changes to certain infotypes, leading to inconsistencies.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Infotype Data: Review the infotype data for the employee in question. Ensure that all required fields are filled out correctly and that there are no overlaps or gaps in the validity periods.
