- Staff who have not yet assimilated to Agenda for Change however it is not possible to allocate them to a specific staff category
- Staff with an Agenda for Change post descriptor of "To be advised"
- Staff who have a blank/unknown payscale
- Staff who have an AfC detail code but not an AfC payscale
