2876773 - Error: “Value is missing in Employee Time Item Payment Type. Restore value before finish scoping”

Symptom

In your system, the scoping element Integration of Employee Data from External Application to Cloud Solution is already scoped. You want to manually hire employees in this system. Therefore, you de-scoped this scoping element, further scoped the Personnel Administration and created Employees via Personnel Administration work center. Now you are trying to rescope this scoping element Integration of Employee Data from External Application to Cloud Solution. Upon rescoping the element, you are unable to complete the scoping changes due to the error:

  • Value is missing in Employee Time Item Payment Type. Restore value before finish scoping.
  • Currently unable to finalize these scoping changes; some of your decisions would cause inconsistencies in your fine-tuning settings or productive data.
  • If error messages are displayed, resolve them before you proceed.

Cause

The system does not allow you to scope the Personnel Administration, create Employees and then remove it from scope and scope the Employee Replication because it will throw errors and cause inconsistencies in your system.

Resolution

Once you create an Employee either from Employee Replication or from Personnel Administration, the system will not allow you to change the scope for this topic.
