Expected.

Rehire date should not overlap with either the previous record's or the next record's effective date

Let's say there are three records A, B and C with B being the rehire record. Record A is effective from 2025.1.1-2025.5.1. Record C is effective from 2025.8.1-2025.12.1, Then the rehire date should be between 2025.5.2 and 2025.7.31. If you are trying to update the rehire date to 2025.5.1 or 2025.8.1, the system will not allow the correct as it may lead to internal conflicts.

Make sure that the rehire date do not overlap with either the previous record's or the next record's effective date
