Symptom
When we modify an exisiting foundation object by inserting a new record, we get a workflow named as **[create]:
"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."
Environment
Employee Central: Workflows
Reproducing the Issue
- Insert new record from Manage organization, pay and job structures > Any foundation object > Insert a new record> Save.
- The workflow generated says **[create] instead of **[update].
Cause
Insert a new record is considered as creation of data. Hence, the workflow shows as **[create].
Resolution
- This is an expected behavior as per product design. Please request an enhancement request with help of the KBA 2090228 - How to submit enhancement requests for SAP SuccessFactors products , if changes to current behavior is desired.
- Changes done via Make Correction however will lead to **[update] workflow.
