Symptom
Due Date system field is not selectable as reportable.
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 Recruiting Management
Reproducing the Issue
- Maintain the field id formDueDate in the Job Requisition template
- Enter a value for Due Date on the Job Requisition
- Create a Recruiting V2 report and report value for the field Due Date
- No value is reported
Cause
This Due Date is a standard system field and cannot be configured as reportable.
Resolution
Example XML for Job Requisition template:
<field-definition id="formDueDate" type="date" required="false" custom="false">
<field-label><![CDATA[Due Date]]></field-label>
<field-label lang="de_DE"><![CDATA[Due Date]]></field-label>
<field-label lang="en_GB"><![CDATA[Due Date]]></field-label>
<field-label lang="en_US"><![CDATA[Due Date]]></field-label>
<field-description><![CDATA[Due Date]]></field-description>
<field-description lang="de_DE"><![CDATA[Due Date]]></field-description>
<field-description lang="en_GB"><![CDATA[Due Date]]></field-description>
<field-description lang="en_US"><![CDATA[Due Date]]></field-description>
</field-definition>
The field will show up in the ad-hoc reports, but it will not pull any values. As mentioned above, the Due Date field cannot be made reportable.
Workaround: (Requires use of Manage Templates and making a field custom reportable - 2258199)
A workaround to this limitiation is to create an On Save business rule (maintained in Manage Rules in Recruiting) that will read the value of the formDueDate field and then write the value to a corresponding custom date field like below:
This will allow a reportable due date to be made available for reporting:
