  The SAP error message HRPIQ00EXC006 indicates that a user is attempting to delete an infotype (a specific type of employee data) and subtype but does not have the necessary authorization to perform this action. This is a common issue in SAP HR (Human Resources) modules, where user permissions are strictly controlled.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization object to delete the specified infotype and subtype. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations in their user profile.
  Infotype/Subtype Restrictions: Certain infotypes and subtypes may have restrictions on deletion based on business rules or configurations set by the organization.
  Data Integrity Constraints: The system may prevent deletion if it would violate data integrity rules or if the infotype is linked to other data.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization failure. This will show which authorization object is missing.
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction PFCG to ensure they have the necessary permissions for the infotype and subtype in question.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator should update the user's roles to include the required authorizations for deleting the specific infotype and subtype.
  
  
  
  Consult with HR or Security Team:
  
  If you are unsure about which authorizations are needed, consult with your HR or SAP security team. They can provide guidance on the appropriate roles and authorizations required for the action.
  
  
  
  Check Infotype Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the infotype and subtype in transaction SPRO to ensure that there are no restrictions preventing deletion. This may involve checking the infotype settings and any associated business rules.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to authorizations or configurations, test the deletion again to ensure that the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide additional guidance on authorization problems related to infotypes.
