2420345 - Originator is not updatable in the upsert request

Symptom

When running report RH_SFI_TRIGGER_JOB_REQUISITION you get error:

'Originator is not updatable in the upsert request with GUId xxxxx.'

Environment

  • Integration Add-On for SAP ERP HCM and SuccessFactors HCM Suite
  • Integration Scenario for Recruiting

Cause

The originator issue usually occurs if there is an error during the transfer of the positions, and the requisition is created in SFSF, but the corresponding requisition ID is not updated in HRP1107, nor the statuses.

So the next time the requisition is sent, SAP sends the originator (as it thinks the requisition was not yet created in SFSF) which should only be sent the first time. SFSF gives an error, as originator is insertable but not updatable.

Resolution

In case you get the “Originator is not updatable …” error message, after the execution of the report “Create and Update Job Requisitions in SuccessFactors (RH_SFI_TRIGGER_JOB_REQUISITION)” write down the affected position.

Check in SFSF BizX whether the corresponding requisition has been successfully created. Write down the corresponding REQ_ID.

Run the report “Change Status of Job Requisitions (RH_SFI_JOB_REQ_STATUS_CHANGE)” and enter the erroneous position in the input field of the selection screen.

Select the entry and push the button “Change Status” on the next screen.

Enter the REQ_ID from the SFSF system.

The program will update the corresponding record in DB table HRP1107, entering the requisition ID and changing the status from '01 Initial' to '02 Open'.
