IAM-3056160:Modify User Profile request cannot set or change attribute Job Code, since it is not defined in the corresponding data set.

Question

I am trying to modify the value of the field "Job Code" through API I am getting the following error.(OIM11gr2). I do not get this error when updating the other fields. There is a field by the name USR_JOB_CODE in the database. When I poked around I found that there is no Job Code field in the User Form. Any ideas?
IAM-3056160:Modify User Profile request cannot set or change attribute Job Code, since it is not defined in the corresponding data set.:Modify User Profile:Job Code

THanks for your reply. Here is the snippet from User.xml that contains info about job code.
<entity-attribute>Job Code</entity-attribute>

I am able to retrieve the value of the Job Code attribute without any problem with the following code.
System.out.println("JOB Code: "+user.getAttribute("Job Code"));
