Problem in using the api Hr_Personal_Pay_Method_Api

Question

I am getting the following exception message in the HRSSA workflow and it errors out always.
ORA-20001: FLEX-DSQL EXCEPTION:
Error Stack Wf_Engine_Util.Function_Call(hum_hr_ss_paymethods.chg_cash_to_deposit, HRSSA, 3717165, 408994, RUN)
The above custom function call refers to the api - Hr_Personal_Pay_Method_Api. It looks liek the problem is with the two parameters account_name and account_number I pass to the api. Please provide any inputs/help to get this resolved ASAP.
The api call I am using is as mentioned below:
l_account_name := 'CashPay Visa Req ' || TO_CHAR(l_emp_number);
l_account_number := '9999' || TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'yyyyddmmhh24mi');
Hr_Personal_Pay_Method_Api.create_us_personal_pay_method (
p_validate => FALSE -- pbValidate
p_effective_date => SYSDATE,
p_assignment_id => cash_card_req.assignment_id,
p_org_payment_method_id => l_org_payment_method_id ,
p_account_name => l_account_name,
p_account_number => l_account_number -- dummy account number
p_transit_code => '00000000' -- transit code for Bank of America
p_bank_name => 'XXXXXXXXXXXX',
p_account_type => 'C',
p_bank_branch => 'XXXXXXXXXXX',
p_amount => cash_card_req.amount,
p_percentage => cash_card_req.percentage,
p_priority => cash_card_req.priority --paymethod.priority
p_attribute1 => cash_card_req.attribute1 -- (Mothers's maiden name)
p_attribute2 => cash_card_req.attribute2 -- (Use for reimbursement) 2007/02
p_personal_payment_method_id => l_personal_payment_method_id,
p_external_account_id => l_external_account_id,
p_object_version_number => l_object_version_number,
p_effective_start_date => l_effective_start_date,
p_effective_end_date => l_effective_end_date,
p_comment_id => l_comment_id);

Answer 1

Hi, is there any more specific error message?
One thing to try is to apply the trunc() function to your p_effective_date parameter, e.g p_effective_date => trunc(sysdate)...
Hope this helps
