Hi,

Please suggest the fix.

Hi,

Distributed employment being active, checks for Central Person(CP object).

I think you have replicated the employee using the report OTM_TRIGGER_EMPL_REPL and Distributed employment is active in your tenant which checks for CP Object.

CP object data is not a part of replication when you use the report OTM_TRIGGER_EMPL_REPL and hence the error.

Please use the report OTM_TRIGGER_EMPL_REPL_CE to replicate the employe which bring the CP object in addition to Personnel Number.

So you have 2 options:

Option 1: Create an Incident and and put in a request to Deactivate the Distributed employment and use the report OTM_TRIGGER_EMPL_REPL to replicate employee you will not receive the error "Personnel Number could not be determined for expense report".

Option 2: Use the report OTM_TRIGGER_EMPL_REPL_CE to replicate the employee which brings in CP object related data(Remote Employment ID).

You will not receive the error "Personnel Number could not be determined for expense report" as the required check is validated and data(CP object) is available in the replication.

Please test it and let me know if more info is required.

Thanks.

Best regards,
