Environment

Employee Central - Advances

Reproducing the Issue

Go to any employee's profile who is eligible for the specific advance and observe that Request Now button is missing.

Cause

This happens when you had not set maximum eligibility amount in the Eligibility for Advances object:

Resolution

  • This is an expected behavior as practically, we cannot have unlimited amount requested.
  • So the request button is not available if maximum eligibility amount/percentage is not maintained.
  • If you want to have the request button, then please maintain some value in the amount field, you can set exception for request amount to yes if wou wish that employee can request for more amount than they are eligible.
