Hope you referred the previous post and are ware of what's Infotype,its use and the structure.
So Apart from the standard SAP defined Infotypes,we can create custom infotypes to meet our requirements.
Here is a step by step procedure of Creating the Infotype and Configuring the Subtypes for the newly created Infotype.
Go to Transaction PM01.
Enter the custom Infotype number which you want to create (Should be a 4 digit number, start with 9).
Select the 'Employee Infotype' radio button.
Select the 'PS Structure Infotype'.
Click on Create, a separate table maintenance window appears…
Create a PS structure with all the fields you want on the Infotype
Save and Activate the PS structure
Go back to the initial screen of PM01.
Click on 'All' push button.
Click on 'Technical Characteristics'. Infotype list screen appears
Click on 'Change'(pencil) button
Select your Infotype and click on 'Detail' (magnifying glass) button
Give 'T591A' as subtype table

Give your subtype field as subtype field
Save and come back to PM01 initial screen
Click on 'Infotype Characteristics', Infotype list screen appears
Click on 'Change' (pencil) button
