Environment

Employee Central - Global Assignment

Reproducing the Issue

  1. End the global assignment of an employee with a future effective date of 01/10/2018 for example.
  2. Change the effective end date of the global assignment to a date closer to the present day - 01/01/2018 for example.
  3. You receive the error similar to above.

Cause

There is a pending data change with an effective date after the end of the global assignment event now (between 01/01/2018 and 01/10/2018).

The data change needs to be before the end of global assignment if a termination event is being used.

Resolution

Change the effective date of the pending data change to a date before the effective date of the end of global assignment event.
