  Cause:
  The error usually arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Missing Delimitation: The infotype IT0008 has not been properly delimited. This means that the validity period for the current record has not been closed, preventing the system from allowing a new entry.
  Incorrect Date: The date you are trying to enter or modify may fall within the validity period of an existing record, which is not allowed unless the existing record is delimited first.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that are preventing the proper handling of infotype records.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Existing Records:
  
  Go to the employee's master data (transaction code PA30).
  Check the infotype IT0008 for the employee in question.
  Ensure that there is no overlapping record that needs to be delimited.
  
  
  
  Delimit the Existing Record:
  
  If you find that the existing record is still valid and needs to be delimited, you can do this by:
  
  Selecting the record in IT0008.
  Using the "Delimit" function to set an end date for the current record.
  
  
  
  
  
  Create a New Record:
