1873049 - Your workplace e-mail address and/or telephone number is not maintained

Symptom

You are accessing the Self Services with the intention to maintain the workplace e-mail. But you don't find an according option.

The workplace e-mail is required for various scenarios, for example:

 Sending cases to the Service Provider

Knowing the e-mail and phone number contact data is a requirement for forwarding cases to a service provider. Without the data, you can only save the case locally. Once the data is maintained, you can continue working with the case.

Form Output

The form framework is highly customizable. You may have chosen to add an employee/agent e-mail address printed on your custom designed form output.

Environment

  • SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

The issue can be reproduced using the support scenario. When your e-mail address is not maintained and you are trying to forward an case to the service provider, you get to see the following message.

 Cannot send to the provider; Your e-mail address and/or telephone number is not maintained. Please update your contact data. To report the case internally, deselect the Forward to Service Provider checkbox.

Cause

In the HR hiring process it is unlikely that during the hiring workflow the workplace phone number and e-mail address are already known.
