The Element link is not Mutually Exclusive in the Element Link Window in Oracle HRMS Payroll

Reason: 

THERE IS ALREADY A LINK BASED WHOLLY OR PARTIALLY ON THE CRITERIA YOU ARE SPECIFYING. 

Each element must link to an assignment only once to avoid assignments incorrectly receiving an entry twice for a given period.

Example:

Element 'BONUS' is linked to payroll 'MONTHLY'

Assignment number 123 for John Smith includes components 'MONTHLY' Payroll & 'SALES' Organization

When attempting to add a second element link on 'BONUS' based on the organization 'SALES' the '...not mutually exclusive...'  message is returned, because this would mean John Smith would receive the BONUS entry twice, once for being on the payroll & once for being in the organization.

Best thing is to create a common criteria for the element links, this approach would reduce such type of errors.
