Schedule validation errors and warnings
Contents
Find out what the error and warning messages mean that you might see when building schedules.
When Workforce Management (WFM) is building or validating schedules, you might see one or more of the following Error or Warning messages. The descriptions in this topic will help you to understand what causes these messages to occur and (in some cases) what you can do to resolve them.
When WFM generates these messages, the variable text shown in braces { } is replaced with the actual value.

Warning messages
Warning[4] | More days off have been assigned for agent {A} on week with first day {B} than are permitted by the agent's constraints. The user has assigned more days off to an agent in the specified week than are permitted by the agent's constraints. Contract weekend and/or day-off rules limit the number of days off allowed. |
Warning[8] |
No shifts match the constraints for agent {A} on day {B}; agent assigned a day off. Scheduler is forced to schedule a day off for {A} agent because there are no shifts matching the agent's contract constraints for this day {B}. If a shift is configured to be available on this day, then this warning signals a bad configuration of either the shift or an associated meal. Verify that the duration for the shift and meal are valid. |
Warning[16] | The specified starting timestep value {A} for meal {B} is invalid. It must be positive number greater than 0. |
Warning[28] | Forced day off for agent {A} on day {B} lowered weekly/monthly goals by {C} hours. Conflicting contract constraints will force the agent {A} to have the day off on {B}. This is possibly due to a combination of min/max/consecutive day-off and weekend day-off rules. It can also be caused by shift rejections. |
Warning[31] | Failed to satisfy constraint of type {A} for agent {B}. Scheduler was unable to assign the schedule items for the agent required by the specified constraint. Usually, this is due to a conflicting combination of constraints. |
Warning[34] | The start-step constraint {A} is not satisfied for initial values of shift {B}. Check that the shift start time is compatible with the timestep requested. |
Warning[43] | Planning period work constraint for the dates {A} - {B} for agent {C} cannot be satisfied. The workload constraints for this agent cannot be fulfilled for the specified days due to conflicts in Planning Period constraints settings. |
Warning[44] | The specified agent's {A} schedule cannot be given to any other agent, because it contains fixed elements that cannot be exchanged. |
Warning[49] | A part-day paid exception {C} request that was violating shift settings was removed, so that Scheduler could assign agent {B} a shift on {A}. |
Warning[50] | A part-day paid time-off {C} request that was violating shift settings was removed, so that Scheduler could assign agent {B} a shift on {A}. |
Warning[53] | There are no shifts of {A} contract that can match preferences on {B}. |
Warning[55] | Meal {A} does not fit in to shift {B}. The shift cannot be scheduled. |
Warning[56] | The time-window for day {A} of agent {B} is reduced to [{C},{D}] to match activity open hours. |
Warning[57] | the break and meal sequence for [{A},{B}] duration of shift {C} was ignored as infeasible. Sequence: {D} |
Warning[61] | The planning period paid hours limit granted preferences to {A} for agent {B}. Decreasing quotas to {C}. |
Warning[63] | Single-skill mode cannot be used when task sequences are defined. Changing to multi-skill mode. |
Warning[64] | The {A} constraint for agent {D} cannot be satisfied for the specified date range {B}-{C}. The specified constraint for this agent cannot be satisfied for the specified date range. |
Warning[65] | Some breaks could not be scheduled for agent {A} on {B}. |
Warning[66] | The maximum shift item distance constraint could not be satisfied for agent {A} on {B}. |
Warning[67] | The minimum shift item distance constraint could not be satisfied for agent {A} on {B}. |
Warning[68] | Shift items could not be scheduled at configured time intervals for agent {A} on {B}. |
Warning[69] | Team/shared transport shift item synchronization ignored for agent {A} since contract shift item synchronization is enabled. |
Warning[70] | Shift items could not be synchronized with other agents of the team/shared transport for agent {A} on {B}. |
Warning[71] | {A} constraint cannot be satisfied for team/shared transport {D} starting at {B} and ending at {C}. |
Warning[77] | Failed to satisfy constraint of type {B} for agent {A} on {C}. |
Warning[78] | {A} constraint cannot be satisfied for team/shared transport {B} on {C}. |
Warning[79] | {A} constraint cannot be satisfied for team/shared transport {D} with contract {E} starting at {B} and ending at {C}. |
Warning[81] | Contracts with different weekend start days were assigned for agent {A} during the scheduling period {B} - {C}. |
Warning[82] | Contracts with different maximum consecutive work days were assigned for agent {A}. Value configured on the first day of scenario will be used. |
Warning[83] | Contracts with different minimum consecutive work days were assigned for agent {A}. Value configured on the first day of scenario will be used. |
