  Ensure that the access table is correctly set up with the necessary entries.

  Review Transport Logs:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate why the access table was not populated.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific infotype or HR process you are working with. There may be specific instructions or prerequisites for setting up the access table.
  
  
  
  Testing:
