2444218 - Gender Talent Flag is not showing on Succession Org chart

The Gender field was configured as Talent Flag in Provisioning > Org Chart XML, but the icons do not appear in the Succession org chart.

SAP SuccessFactors Succession Management

1. Go to Succession > Succession Org Chart;
2. Search for a sample user;
3. Click the display options and verify that gender is selected, but it is not showing in the position node for the users.

This may be caused due to a Picklist association with the standard element Gender in the Data Model, which is not supported, as Gender is a string field.

Wrong code example in Data Model:

<standard-element id="gender" max-length="2" required="true" matrix-filter="false">
    <label>Gender</label>
    <picklist id="gender"/>
 </standard-element>

1. Remove Picklist id tag from standard element gender;
2. Instead of using integer number in the value section of the XML code in "Edit Org Chart Configuration", it is necessary to use the supported values for Gender field:
• F for Female
• M for Male
• D for Undeclared
• U for Unknown
• O for Others

Code example in Org Chart XML:

<iconSetOption index="3" key="gender" target="both">
 <type>iconset</type>
 <label>Gender</label>
 <label lang="en-US">Gender</label>
  <iconset>
   <icon>
    <image>square_green</image>
    <label>Male</label>
    <value>M</value>
   </icon>
   <icon>
    <image>square_yellow</image>
    <label>Female</label>
    <value>F</value>
   </icon>
   <icon>
    <image>square_blue</image>
    <label>Undeclared</label>
    <value>D</value>
   </icon>
   <icon>
    <image>square_orange</image>
    <label>Unknown</label>
    <value>U</value>
   </icon>
   <icon>
    <image>square_grey</image>
    <label>Others</label>
    <value>O</value>
   </icon>
 </iconset>
</iconSetOption>
