3602326 - "You are not permitted to take this Exam/Assessment" while taking exam on mobile device

Symptom

Users are getting an error "You are not permitted to take this Exam/Assessment" when taking exam on mobile device

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Learning

Cause

This can happen when there is connection issues or a drop in cellular connection.

Resolution

LMS backend handles a dropped cellular connection as an assessment failure. 

The workaround here would be to increase/remove limits assigned to the items. 

We don't currently plan to enhance the system to distinguish these data connectivity errors, because it's something we rarely see anymore. Users typically have a stable connection, or are "off the grid" and wait to complete assessments.
