Symptom
Not able to Edit 'Email' Field under Employee Profile.
Image/Data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems,sample data or demo systems.Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Employee Profile
- Check the portlet where "Email" field is configured and click on edit link to update the email field.
- Email field is not editable.
Cause
There could be multiple reasons -
- Check the RBP settings for a particular role and check if 'email' field has edit permission.
- Even if the RBP settings are correctly configured then it woyuld be possible that the hris field 'emailInfo' is configured in data model XML.
- HRIS field 'emailInfo' is used in 'Contact Information' portlet under Employee Central.
Resolution
- This is a system default behaviour.
- If 'emailInfo' hris field is defined in Employee central then we cannot edit 'email' field in Employee Profile.
- The hris field 'emailInfo' is automatically mapped with the 'email' field in Employee Profile.
- If we update email information in Contact Information under Personal Information section of Employee Profile then it will automatically update the 'email' field in employee profile.
