Today I got my invitation for Working Holiday Visa (IEC), and now they are asking me for Offer of Employment no.
If I don't enter this no. and if I say no to question "Has your employer paid the compliance fee" it validates my form and I am able to move forward.
Is this is just a glitch in the system or can I have any issues if I do not provide this no.? (when I enter the pool I was eligible for both WHV and YP, but they invited me under WH)

So now I don't know what to do? Any experiences with the same issue?

Thank you for your help.

I think I got my answer!
Why do I need an offer of employment number if I’m applying for a Working Holiday work permit?
When you filled out your International Experience Canada (IEC) profile, you said that you have a job offer in Canada. That’s why you’re being asked in the form for an offer of employment number and other details about your employer in Canada.
To complete this part of the application, follow these steps:
• Type “A9999999” in the offer of employment number field.
• Select “No” to the question “Has your employer paid the Employer Compliance fee?”
• Type “Non-applicable – Working Holiday” into the employer address fields.
