Symptom
Since the 2H 2025 release, onboarding candidates with only "View" permission for Employee Data > HR Information > Email Information can see an "Add" button in Email Information section during the Personal Data Collection step, which allows them to add a new email address row.
Due to lack of permissions, onboarding candidates will not be able to either maintain values for the new row or delete the new row, causing an error (e.g. "Email Type is required") while trying to move to the next section and the onboarding process need to be restarted to let them proceed the task further.
Environment

Cause
Known issue.
