1. Click/Browse to any other tab within the Item Window which contains an ‘Edit’ button.
2. Click/Browse back to the Instructors tab – you will notice that you are able to now add an Instructor to the Item (the screen re-populated with the expected ability to Add/Edit).

 

• The Admin may notice they can add Instructor to an Item if they add the Workflow called:  ‘Edit Item Evaluation’

SAP SuccessFactors Learning Management System (LMS)

Create an admin Role in the LMS with all suspected "INSTRUCTOR" and "ITEM" type workflows added. Assign to an LMS admin and notice that admin may not be able to see the Edit Instructor information.

The Cause was under investigation by SAP SuccessFactors Development.  Internal Reference:    “LRN-17157 'Edit Item Evaluation' workflow affecting Instructors window”

Developers have stated that this is ‘By Design’ and would require an Enhancement Request to change the current functionality

At this time, our SF developers are considering this as an Enhancement Request for a future release.

Workarounds:

There are two known workarounds.

1. Simply add the Workflow called:  ‘Edit Item Evaluation’ to your Admin’s Role.
2. Click/Browse to any other tab within the Item screen that contains an Edit button.  Click/Browse back to the Instructor tab – you will notice that the screen has populated with the appropriate Edit options.
