You are trying to update Special Information Type (SIT) (Navigation: People > Enter and Maintain
> Query Employee > Special Info). You select the special information structure: Passport details,
enter the details and try to save. The error “Please choose an existing combination” is displayed.
What is the cause of this error and how would you fix it?
A.
The Allow Dynamic Inserts check box in the Flexfield Definition form was not selected. Select
the Structure Code in question, select the Allow Dynamic Inserts check box, and compile the
flexfield.
B.
All the mandatory segments of the SIT are not entered, and hence the error message is
displayed. If you retry to save after all the segments are entered, this error message will not
appear.
C.
The Start/End Date fields are left blank for the SIT structure in the Details section. Hence the
error message is displayed. If you try to save after the Start/End Date fields are entered, this error
message will not appear.
D.
The value set associated with the SIT Structure has issues. The value set needs to be fixed.
E.
The SIT structure has not been entered in the Special Information Types (SIT) form
(Navigation: Others > Special Information Types). Create a row for the new SIT. Select the
Enabled check box for others.
Explanation:
Generally this happens when the Allow Dynamic Inserts not checked on flexfield is
not checked.
