  Review Attendance/Absence Records: Check the specific attendance or absence record that triggered the error. Ensure that the number of payroll days meets the minimum requirement specified for that absence type.
  Adjust Payroll Days: If the record does not meet the minimum requirement, you may need to adjust the dates or the duration of the absence/attendance to ensure it meets the criteria.
