  Cause
  The error can occur due to several reasons, including:
  
  Data Locking: The records you are trying to delete may be locked by another user or process.
  Authorization Issues: The user attempting to delete the records may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the deletion.
  Data Integrity Constraints: There may be dependencies or constraints that prevent the deletion of the records, such as related records in other infotypes or tables.
  Technical Issues: There could be a technical issue with the database or the SAP system itself that is preventing the deletion.
  
  Solution
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check for Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check if the records are locked by another user. If they are, you may need to wait for the lock to be released or contact the user who has locked the records.
  
  
  Verify Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to delete records from the specified infotype. You can check this using transaction code SU53 after the error occurs to see if there are any authorization issues.
  
  
  Check Data Integrity: Investigate if there are any dependencies or constraints related to the records you are trying to delete. You may need to delete related records in other infotypes or tables first.
  
  
  Review Error Logs: Check the application logs for more detailed error messages. You can use transaction code SLG1 to view application logs related to the HR module.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific infotype you are working with to understand any specific requirements or constraints.
