Symptom
When trying to add a successor, the Readiness dropdown does not appear in the Position Card:
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 Succession Management
Cause
This may be caused by the missing configuration of the gradientSetOption "readiness" in the Succession Org Chart XML, on Provisioning, as the Position Card uses the readiness configuration from the Succession Org Chart.
Resolution
For the Readiness values to appear in the Position Card, make sure that the following are configured:
- “Readiness” Rating Scale in Admin Center > Company Settings > Rating Scales;
- “Readiness” gradientOption in Provisioning > Org Chart XML.
To complete tasks in Provisioning, it is necessary to engage an Implementation Partner. The "Readiness" code is introduced in your instance during implementation of the Succession module.
