I have been to Bahrain for employment for 5 month and 25 days in a row. While filling up the form after ITA, system is asking only year and month of stay in Bahrain, but not the date. Hence system has calculated 6 months for me and suggested to submit PCC for Bahrain.

As per the above link, I need to submit PCC when I present 6 month of more in a row.

Could you please suggest me, what should I submit for the system generated mandatory field in place for Bahrain PCC.

Awaiting for your response.

Be on the safe side and submit the PCC. Is it difficult to get? Many applications get rejected because of missing pcc.

Even if the system hadn't asked for it, 99.9% chances visa officer was going to ask for it anyway as it was a substantial amount of time. It's always at his/her discretion.

Luckily, you cannot obtain a PCC from Bahrain without a request letter. So instead of uploading the PCC, write and upload a letter of explanation stating that you need a request letter from Canada.

They are aware of it and it's very normal. They will send you a letter automatically when they start processing your application.
You'll need that letter to apply for Bahrain PCC. Check the above link for specific instructions depending on your case.

Cheers.

So this means they will issue the letter to bahrain embassy to issue pcc. Anyhow its not requirement to submit pcc at the time of application for bahrain.

So, there will be an ADR but not rejection right...???

I would recommend you write to them first asking for the letter to submit to Bahrain to request PCC.

Anyhow its a system issue. The requirement is to submit pcc when we stay 6 month or more in a row

Firstly, it's not a system issue. That's just how it works.
Secondly, some people have been asked by visa officer for PCC after only spending 1 month in some countries (like in the case of USA). So I'm sure visa officer would've asked for it anyway.
You're lucky enough to know this now, as you have a lot of time to get it before submitting. If you had received the request by VO, he/she would be giving you no more than 30 days or so.
They do not joke with PCCs my friend. Don't lose your time, and start the process.

Cheers.

Like I said, it's normal.
You submit application, and then they send you request letter.
They won't send it to Bahrain Embassy though! They'll send it to you, and then you take it to Embassy.
