2384629 - Restrict users to hire only in the legal entity of the logged in users legal entity

Symptom

Add new hire screen should be configured in such a way that if person who is adding a new employee in the system belongs to particular legal entity, he should be able to hire persons for that legal entity only and not for other legal entities.

Environment

SucessFactors , Employee Central

Reproducing the Issue

While trying to configure the requirement through a business rule, we found that  Add new hire screen will not pick job information data of the user who is trying to hire the users during hiring process i.e. logged in user legal entity even by using Context + current user.Legal entity is not being catered.

Resolution

At present for Add new hire screen we won't be able to setup this requirement such that a way that if person who is adding a new employee in the system belongs to particular legal entity, he should be able to hire persons for that legal entity only and not for other legal entities that are part of the organization.

Kindly note that Business rule or another function will not support the requirement

Also note that this limitation also applies to MDF objects (Like positions). Example: context.current user also does not work in a rule while creating of position objects.
