Hello.
When trying to delete an employee I'm getting this error:

Hi @nabinhait , I am new to this open source and was looking forward to contribute some to this community, Can you please help me out in solving this issue?
As I have locally solved out the bug but made some changes in query.
Since these 2 columns ref_type and ref_name are not defined in tabEmployee table as well as not defined in tabEvent table, So the existing query will definitely raise an issue that it has not find these 2 columns. Also there is no column in tabEmployee table that specifies the type of user i.e. Employee, So I think the existing query need to be change, to make it work.

It is fixed by #15854

will be merged soon

ok

is it merged ? I am facing same issue
