ErrorCode 18: If Offboarding is deactivated in Super Admin it is necessary to be deactivated in Provisioning or this error will be triggered due to a rule (Offboarding eligibility configuration (SYS_OFB_ELIGIBILITY_CONFIG)) that is created if Offboarding is enabled in Provisioning. If the customer does not want to deactivate in Provisioning it is necessary to create a dummy condition for this rule.
- Go to BizX > Admin Center > Configure Business Rules
- Search Offboarding eligibility configuration (SYS_OFB_ELIGIBILITY_CONFIG)
- Edit
- Create a dummy condition that will never be true
FOR IMPLEMENTATION PARTNERS - when disabling the check box is required based on the customer business requirements
- Login to Provisioning
- Manage Scheduled Jobs
- Find"CreateOffboardingActivity" job
- Untick the box for: “Send email to terminated user’s manager if there is a failure in Offboarding activity creation”.
Note:
Even though the "Send email to terminated user’s manager if there is a failure in Offboarding activity creation" flag is disabled in Provisioning, the email is still going to be sent. This functionality will only be fully operational after PTCH-34244 that is going to be released on all environments by December 1st.
