Cause

There can be two known causes of this issue:

  • There is no name data maintained for this user or for his manager, which can be the case if the user was created via import with the incorrect import sequence. The system is attempting to match the Job History to the name of the user, if the user's name is not maintained the system will throw the error.

To verify that this user or his manager don't not have name data maintained:

  1. Navigate to Admin Center -> Employee Export -> Export User File
  2. Open the Excel File -> Filter on the User ID of the affected User
  3. Note that there is no data in the fields 'FIRSTNAME' and 'LASTNAME'  
  • The Job Information is corrupted.

Resolution

OPTION 1:

If the FIRSTNAME and LASTNAME are blank for this user or his manager, you will need to re-import the Basic User Info for this user, making sure to maintain the user's 'FIRSTNAME' and 'LASTNAME'. After this you will be able to access the user's Job information History

OPTION 2:

Do a Job History Full Purge Import following this KBA:
