  The SAP error message HRPAYDETM200, which states "Infotype records will only be displayed," typically occurs in the context of the Human Resources (HR) module when a user attempts to access or modify infotype records but is restricted from making changes. This message indicates that the system is set to display mode only, preventing any modifications to the infotype records.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to change the infotype records. This can happen if the user’s role does not include the required permissions.

  Check Authorizations: Verify that the user has the appropriate authorizations to modify the infotype records. This can be done by checking the user roles and authorizations in transaction code SU53 or PFCG.
