2250044 - Using HTML Tags in MessageDefinition MDF Object

A message, triggered from a Business Rule, containing HTML tags shows the tags as simple text.

• SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
• Metadata Framework (MDF)

1. Log into the instance
2. Go to Employees Files
3. Select Time off
4. Click Request an absence
5. Select the days
6. Click Submit

A pop up appears. Instead of a link the HTML tags show around the hyperlink text: Before clicking submit, please review the <A HREF="http:/ .......... .pdf" target+"_blank">

Same for: <BR/> Before clicking submit <BR/>

SuccessFactors does not support HTML tags for MDF objects, such as MessageDefinition - this is not supported due to security reasons.

This is expected behaviour. MessageDefinition at the moment only supports text.

Product Management will look into a more secure way of sharing links via MessageDefinition, but currently this is not targeted for a future release. Please watch release notes for mention of this feature in future release.
