2. Log in to the mobile application and try to access the Employee Central Service Center mobile application.
3. The error "Failed to load data. Please, try again later" is returned.

The error happens for specific users in the system

The affected user(s) cannot access the application due to missing permissions.

In addition to the regular permissions required to use Ask HR in any platform, the 'Admin access to MDF Odata API' permission is required for using Ask HR on the mobile app.

This is stated in the following page of the official Employee Central Service Center implementation handbook: Prerequisites - SAP Help Portal

NOTE: The Ask HR development team is working on removing the 'Admin access to MDF OData API' permission as a pre-requisite to use Ask HR on the mobile app. Such change is planned for the b2205 (first half of 2022) or b2211 (second half of 2022) release.
