  The SAP error message HRPADAE028, which states "Status type Obsolete cannot be changed to status type Valid," typically occurs in the context of HR (Human Resources) data management, particularly when dealing with infotypes and status management.
  
  Cause:
  This error arises when there is an attempt to change the status of an infotype record that has been marked as "Obsolete." In SAP HR, certain status types are defined for infotypes to indicate their validity. An "Obsolete" status means that the record is no longer active or relevant, and the system does not allow it to be reverted back to a "Valid" status.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Status of the Record: Verify the current status of the infotype record you are trying to change. If it is indeed marked as "Obsolete," you will need to create a new record instead of trying to change the status of the existing one.
