Symptom
Are mutiple groups in UI supported for Payment Information?
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 Employee Central
- Payment Information
Reproducing the Issue
The customer has configured two extra groups in the UI for Payment Information.
The extra groups have fields that are defined in the paymentInformationDetailV3 object as custom fields and they are resolved in the UI. An example is as following:
This leads in loading the Payment Information portlet multiple times when Editing and will get the following error message when saving the data.
Cause
Multiple groups are not supported at present. In 1:M association, we need complete context data to make one row repeatable, and support other advanced feature like rules and conditional fields. However, grouping divides the row context into several parts which makes it very difficult to support repeatable form / groups.
Resolution
Don't use multiple groups as it is not supported now. Include all the fields under the main group only. You may raise an enhancement request by following the steps explained in the KBA 2090228 .
