Symptom
After creating the time model in the Time Administration work center under the Time Models view, you encounter an issue during the employee time file migration. Specifically, you are unable to select a value from the value help for the working time model in the "Edit Value Conversion for Working Time Model" step due to the absence of available data.
Furthermore, you may notice that the status of the working time model is marked as red, with the error message "Target value cannot be empty."
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Business Configuration work center.
- Click on Overview view.
- Search for Migration of Employee Data -<Country> and open it.
- Click on Migrate time and labour management using the migration tool.
- Select the relevant file.
- Click on Execute Migration > Execute Migration step by step.
- Click on Edit Value Conversion for Working Time Model.
Cause
A potential cause is the absence of schedule models in the Time Model view. The input help displays only those time models that are designated as schedule models in the time model view.
Resolution
For data migration, only models of the type "schedule model" are supported. To ensure their availability, you must have selected them in the project scope under Questions in the Human Resources area. Additionally, it is necessary to configure the schedule models in the Time Administration work center before migrating time and labor management data.
