  Incorrect Time Evaluation: The time evaluation process may not have been executed correctly, leading to discrepancies in the quota balances.
  Absence Management: If the employee has taken leaves or absences that affect their quota, it may lead to insufficient available compensation.
  Quota Validity: The validity period of the quota may have expired, or the quota may not be applicable for the current period.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
