M2342 - Details

• The SAP error message M2342 indicates that there is an issue with the information structure you are trying to use in your reporting or analysis. Specifically, the error states that the information structure is not of the type "Without period." This typically occurs when you are attempting to use a structure that is designed to aggregate data over a time period, but the operation you are trying to perform requires a structure that does not consider time periods.
  
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Information Structure: The information structure you are using is likely set up to aggregate data over specific time periods (e.g., monthly, quarterly) rather than being a cumulative or non-periodic structure.
  Misconfiguration: There may be a misconfiguration in the settings of the information structure or the report you are trying to run.
  Incompatibility: The report or transaction you are using may not be compatible with the type of information structure you have selected.
