2291909 - Create an item in different locale via Item Connector

This is a KBA detailing one way to create the same item in a different locale via the Item Connector in Learning.

SAP SuccessFactors Learning

One way to create a new version of the same item (via the Item Connector), so that it is in a new locale, is by creating a new revision of the same item. It is important to set the following property in the connector configuration page prior to running it to: "item.connector.defaultValue.item.priorRevisions.updateNotActive=N". This will ensure that older versions do not get deactivated during the connector job.

1. Populate the "item_data" file with new item >
2. Copy and paste the entire row onto a new row >
3. Change the "LOCALE" field to a new locale >
4. Change the "REV_DTE" to a unique date/time >
5. Confirm the following property is set to "item.connector.defaultValue.item.priorRevisions.updateNotActive=N" >
6. Run the Item Connector.

Note: If you would like to update localized fields (ex.: CPNT_TITLE, CPNT_DESC), for example you want these fields in more than one locale, you should maintain using the "item_locale_data" file and updating via the Item Connector too. It is recommended to engage the SAP team that delivers services or an SAP Certified Partner to review and perform adjustments in the connector configuration.
