Resolution

You must add a country to each of the legal entities. This is required and must be done

In Employee Central, there is a hierarchy amongst a number of the standard objects

Country is the top of the hierarchy, followed by Legal Entity, so it is vitally important that a country is chosen for each legal entity

The quickest way to fix the legal entities, if several them need to be fixed, is to do the following

1. Import and Export Data

2 Export Country Objects > Don't include Dependencies and select all data records

3. Enter a country for each legal entity // FYI, must be the three-letter country code, not the label of the country

4. Re-Import the file

Alternatively, the legal entities can be fixed manually in manage data

1. Go to Manage Data

2. Search for Legal Entities (Maybe Different in each Instance depending on the name of the object in Configure Object Definitions

3. Add a country to each legal entity and save the changes after updating each legal entity, one by one
