Login as an employee then access Time Off through any of the following options: Homepage Time Off tile, Go to Time Off link in People Profile or Time Off tab (v12). An application error message is encountered.

Issue occurs when work schedule has been deleted from the previous job information record, which was only possible due to missing system check/validation.

Product Support: See internal memo for sample logs

System Validation will be added and implemented in 1902 release to restrict deletion of work schedule for job information records older than the current job information record.

Workaround:

1. Edit the job information record where work schedule value has been removed.

2. Reassign the work schedule and then save the changes.
