Could not find Employee: "EMP/0001"0001

This is the error message that I get when I try to save a document Employee Attendance Tool - "Could not find Employee: “EMP/0001"0001” Though I tried looking at the permissions etc. I didnt find any references to old employee id thats been pending in permission manager. I have changed the employee ID series though. Attaching traceback here -

Can you share what is your employee naming series?

Hi Rishab , the naming series that I am using is ReEn - earlier I was using default one EMP/ but then

  1. I later deleted all employees
  2. Changed the naming series to ReEn
  3. Re added the employees with changed naming series using upload feature.

But I get this error while using attendance tool.
