Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Learning (LMS)

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to References > Learning > Subject Area Marker
  2. Add new or edit an existing Subject Area
  3. Choose a color on the "Color" dropdown
  4. Note that whatever color you have chosen on the field, it will reflect on "Color Preview" field

Cause

Our Product Management Team confirmed the following:

The new catalog doesn’t use the Color markers… this feature goes with the old catalog calendar that used to have little squares of color to indicate subject area to.  This deprecated feature may be removed at later time.
