  Navigate to Personnel Management > Time Management > Absences > Define Absence Types.
  Review the settings for the specific absence type in question and ensure that it is configured correctly. If it should not have a benefit amount, ensure that the relevant settings reflect that.
  
  
  
  Remove Benefit Amount:
  
  If you are entering a benefit amount in the absence record, simply remove it and try to save the record again. Ensure that you are only entering data that is permissible for that absence type.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review any internal documentation or guidelines regarding the use of absence types and their configurations to ensure compliance with company policies.
