When Personnel Administration is in scope, technical personnel administration hiring and terminating instances get created. But the affected  employee was e.g. hired, while Master Data Replication (MDR) was in scope. This means, the technical hiring and terminating instances were not get created as per design.

In the meantime, the system has moved from MDR to Personnel Administration. During any termination date change, the system looks for those technical hiring and terminating PAD instances. Since these are missing, the system does not allow the change. This is a feature gap and will be taken care in future product backlog.

A similar situation happens after an employee was e.g. hired via EC integration

• As a work-around, if you want to extend an employment (change termination date to a later one), re-hire the affected employee and terminate the employee at the desired date.
• As a work-around, if you want to move the start of an employment (change hire date to a later one), change the service start date accordingly.  This way, employee's service will be calculated from the changed service start date.
