Data Loader to Update Manager Flag and Date Flex Fields in Assignment FailsContent
Good morning Everyone,
We have two data loaders which were created to perform the following:
1) Data Loader 1 - Update the Manager Flag in the assignment
2) Data Loader 2- Update 4 different descriptive date flex fields in the assignment
Please note that we use a value of one for FTE and headcount for all our positions.
In many instances both data loaders fail with the error message "You can't select this position because it doesn't have enough vacant FTE nor an open headcount."
We have been told that this is because the position id in the assignment we are trying to update with the data loader is in one or more other assignment records. We researched this and have found the other assignments where the position id is located are all inactive.
