Cause

The exception is caused by the fact the system is unable to fetch the correct name for the “Relationshipes user id”  i.e. Custom Manager Id (CM-Id) or/and HR Manager Id (HRM-Id) 

The system is trying to pull data from the userSysInfo table to build full name but there is an issue with "First Name". We can also see this is referencing to Job Relationship data.  So there is likely a data issue in the Job Relationship table or a null value for first/full name.

 The possible Use Cases are either configuration or data related – below are the known examples

By running an Adhoc report for Job Relationship on the affected user you may find (1 and/or 2):

1-      There is a break in the Start / end Date for one or all the Rel user id

Resolution

Check job relationship data for the affected users and possibly the new manager they are reporting to. 

SAMPLE USE CASES

1-      Fix the data for affected user as below ensuring there is only ONE row for each rel type

This may import successfully but on the UI you may still encounter the error.

This may be due to the date issue mentioned in example 2

In which case you proceed with fix 2

2-      Check and fix the date on one or all the relationships type

Ensure that the Relationship type was valid a the start date mentioned in the report (it could be that the date was  wrongly imported )

In our use case the date should have been as below (10/04/2017 INSTEAD OF 01/03/2017)
