Symptom
You are not able to schedule Service Assignment to an Employee in Resource Scheduler. Working hours of the Employee are greyed out.
Reproducing the Issue
Prerequisite: You have already created and sent Service Ticket item as demand to Resource Scheduler.
-
Go to Resource Scheduler work centre.
-
Go to Resource Scheduler view.
-
Notice that Employee ABC (ABC represents the name of an Employee) is greyed out and you are not able to assign him to a Service Assignment.

Cause
Employee ABC have been assigned to Org Unit DEF (DEF represents the Organisational Unit name) as Primary employee, and during the same period of time assigned to Org Unit GHI (GHI represents the Organisational Unit name) as Temporary employee.
Resolution
