28. Why a I getting Error While Creating a New User with XYZ Extra Field Value:
This happens because the XYZ value is marked as "Unique over the organization," meaning it can only be used for one user.
Using a different, unique value that hasn’t been used before would resolve the issue.
29. Why am I getting an error while creating a new user with the same XYZ extra field value, even though the previous user was deleted?
This happens because the extra field is marked as "Unique over the organization." Even if the previous user was deleted, the value can't be reused unless that user was deleted as a Test User. If not, the system still retains the value in the backend.
Tip: Use a different value or contact support if you need the same one reused.
30. Why am I getting an error while updating a user profile saying a mandatory field (e.g., XYZ) is missing, even though it's not visible?
This happens when the field is marked as mandatory but also hidden for the user's role in the UEF (User Extra Field) settings. Since it’s not visible, it can’t be filled—causing the error.
The Super Admin needs to make the field visible for the user’s role in the UEF settings.
Steps to Resolve:
Log in to Happay Portal.
Switch to Privileged View
Navigate to Administration
Click on Extra Fields from the left panel
