2593268 - Position data is not replicating using iFlow: EC to ERP - Employee Organizational Assignment Replication v1.0 in Boomi

Symptom

  • Issue in Position data replication from EC to SAP ERP using Dell Boomi.
  • I could see that the position is received by Boomi as a result from the SFAPI call to compoundemployee object for this employee, but it is later not present in the resulting "EmployeeOrganisationalAssignmentReplicationRequest" payload after the conversions at Boomi side.
  •  Position is missing in "EmployeeOrganisationalAssignmentReplicationRequest" payload, but I can see it is correctly received in Boomi.

Environment

Success Factors

Dell Boomi

Reproducing the Issue

Step 1: Trigger position data replication using Dell Boomi process “Packaged Integration: EC to ERP Position Replication v1.0”.

Step 2: Further process position data using SAP ERP t-code SFIOM_VIEW_ORG_REQS

Step 3: Check the position in PO13 and Infotype 0001.

Step 4: As expected it should be getting created in ERP but currently it's not happening.

Step 5: Just to be sure that the issue is correct as mentioned in symptoms, please cross verify it in SFAPI audit logs, Boomi process logs Success factors payload you should see the position data getting picked and flowing. The place where it will be missing must be in EmployeeOrganisationalAssignmentReplicationRequest" payload after the conversions at Boomi side.

Cause

The reason why position data is not replicating is because of the Groovy script written in the MAP while mapping fields between EC and ERP.

You can check it in standard iFlow configuration switching to Master Account.

Map named as MAP_EC Compound Employee to ERP Employee Organizational Assignment Replication Web Service, Function Used for position under map is MAPF Check Position Replication.

As you see we have the parameter used for position field mapping is ECERPORG_REPLICATE_POSITION and logic for which is written in script as shown in below screenshot.

if (position_relevant_in == "X") {
  position_out = position_in;
}

As you see the field position_relevant_in is directly attached to parameter ECERPORG_REPLICATE_POSITION hence as per logic is must have value saved as 'X'.
