Server Error: AttributeError: ‘EmployeeMaster’ object has no attribute ‘job_applicant’

i am facing this error when creating a new employee :

I tired with this solution :and still the same error i tried reinstalling Hrms, changing version, updating the bench, I tried adding a custom field in the employee doctype with name job_applicant i made it a link field and still the same error
I also changed the code if not doc.job_applicant: to if not hasattr(doc, ‘job_applicant’) or not doc.job_applicant: in the employee_master.py
and still the same error.

Installed Apps
ERPNext: v14.74.3 (version-14)

As I can see in your error log, the “job_applicant” field is renamed to “custom_job_applicant,” so in my opinion, this is causing the issue. Have you done any customization to your Employee Doctype?

This is orignal job_applicant field in Employee

[sadashiv]

I was not able to see the Job applicant field so i tried creating it but later i removed as it not working

i m not able to see the original job_applicant field in Employee

[ejaaz]

Check via the customized form because I can see that field code is available in the HRMS setup.py file.

also try updating your site using bench update command

[sadashiv]

Thank you for your help! I have successfully uninstalled the HRMS app, cleared the data, and reinstalled it. Additionally, I updated the site using the bench update command. If I have any questions or need further guidance in the future, I will kindly reach out to you.
