2542641 - Analytics - Candidate Recruitment Date (Onboarding data) not reported in 'Date' type

Symptom

If an Analytics (Report Designer) report is pulling date data (e.g Candidate Recruitment Date) from the Onboarding system, the date data is not in 'Date' type, it is reported in Text type. No further Analytics operator filtering ('between'  etc.) can be performed on this reported date data

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding

SAP SuccessFactors Analytics

Reproducing the Issue

1. Access Business Execution Suite

2. Go to Reporting \ Analytics

3. Generate a report using Report Designer

4. If the report is extracting date data from the Onboarding system, the date data is not reported in 'Date' type, it is returned in 'Text' type

Resolution
