  The SAP error message RP858 indicates that there are changes in wage types for a specific infotype (e.g., infotype 0008 for basic pay) and that the corresponding Customer Include (CI) for that infotype needs to be activated. This error typically arises in the context of payroll processing when there are modifications to wage types that are not reflected in the system's configuration.
  Cause:
  
  Wage Type Changes: The error occurs when wage types associated with a specific infotype have been modified or newly created, but the system requires the activation of a corresponding Customer Include (CI) to accommodate these changes.

  Activate the Include: If the include is not activated, you will need to activate it. This can usually be done by selecting the include and choosing the "Activate" option.
  Check Payroll Schema: Ensure that the payroll schema is correctly configured to include the new wage types and that the changes are reflected in the schema.
  Test the Changes: After activation, run a test payroll to ensure that the error is resolved and that the payroll process completes successfully.
