The message states that the infotype specified (denoted as &1) is missing or that the employee (denoted by personnel number &2) is not active.
  Causes:
  
  
  Missing Infotype: The specified infotype (e.g., 0001 for Organizational Assignment, 0002 for Personal Data, etc.) does not exist for the given personnel number. This could happen if the infotype was never created or if it was deleted.
  
  
  Inactive Employee: The employee associated with the personnel number is not active in the system. This could mean that the employee has been terminated or is on a leave of absence.
  
  
  Data Entry Error: There may be a mistake in the personnel number or infotype being referenced, leading to the system not being able to find the required data.

  Check Infotype Data:
