What causes this issue?

In infotype 1, person &V1& is assigned to a position which differs from
your assignment in the organizational structure. This is only allowed
if the integration between Personnel Administration and Organizational
Management has been deactivated completely, or at least for person &V1&
in the period &V2& - &V3&. If integration is activated, there must be
an inconsistency in this case.

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 whether the person is marked in open processes. This could be the
cause of the inconsistent position assignments. A person is marked in
open processes if he/she has an entry in table T77INT. Since the
position assignment in infotype 1 is not consistent with that in the
organizational structure, the job, organizational unit and cost center
assignments could also be inconsistent. If person &V1& is not marked in
open processes, correct your organizational assignment, either in
infotype 1 or in the organizational structure in the above mentioned
period. For this you can use report RHINTE30 or RHINTE00.
