Cause
There could be two possible causes for this error:
Cause 1: The hire date of the employee is not within the validity period of the organizational unit to which the employee is assigned.
For example: The employee hire date is: 01.01.2020 and the org unit is valid from: 01.03.2020.
Cause 2: The Job ID assigned to the employee in the migration template is set to a limited value instead of an unlimited value.
Resolution
Solution for cause 1: Ensure that the validity of the organizational unit assigned to the employee covers or includes the employee's hire date.
Solution for cause 2: Ensure that the validity of the Job ID matches the validity of the employee, or vice versa.
