  The SAP error message HRBAS_BOL026, which states "Enter Infotype," typically occurs in the context of Human Resources (HR) module transactions when the system expects the user to specify an infotype but none has been provided. Infotypes are data structures in SAP HR that store specific types of employee-related information, such as personal data, organizational assignments, and payroll data.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Infotype: The user did not specify an infotype when trying to perform an action that requires it.

  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about which infotype to use, refer to SAP documentation or consult with your HR department or SAP support team for guidance on the specific infotypes relevant to your task.
