  Solution:
  
  Check Infotype Validity: Verify that the infotype you are trying to access is indeed valid for the action you are performing. You can do this by checking the configuration in the SAP system (transaction code SPRO) under the relevant personnel administration settings.

  Data Completeness: Make sure that all required fields for the infotype are filled out correctly. If the infotype is not created yet, you may need to create it first.
  Authorization Check: Confirm that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and modify the infotype. This can be checked with the help of your SAP security team.
