SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HRTIM00TDT - Messages for Time Data IDs

• Message number: 107

• Message text: Inconsistent use of ID in subset

What causes this issue?

Errors occurred for the current subset during the collision check for
one of the following reasons:
You have two IDs with the same meaning, such as "default," "ready for
entry," or "for display only," set as active.
You entered the <ZK>default</> option incorrectly as follows:
You did not specify any maeaning as "default" for an ID, but you
indicated that the ID is "ready for input"
You selected several characterics as "default" IDs for each applicable
grouping
You created an ID with both a specific and a generic characteristic.
You want to use both characteristics in this subset.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Check the usage type of the individual characteristics, taking the
following rules into account:
Only one type of time entry can have an active ID (either "default,"
"ready for input," or "for display only") in one subset.
Only one characteristic can be set as "default" for each applicable
grouping for an ID ("default" or "ready for entry")
If an ID has both a specific and a generic characteristic, you cannot
activate both of them in a subset at one time.
