Symptom
When trying to import Succession Data Model by setting Standard Elements such as 'lastName', 'firstName', 'email' to 'Mandatory' an error is displayed:
Form data is invalid |
???Validation Failed ! |
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Profile
Reproducing the Issue
In Succession Data Model, change the parameter 'required' of Standard Elements to 'true' and try to import it back to the system
See an error message display:
Cause
If Employee Central is enabled, First Name, Last Name, Email and so on are synced from EC to EP via HRIS and must be populated in EC - Personal Information only.
Standard Elements must be set to 'Visible Only' and not 'Required'.
Resolution
Standard configuration is to populate these fields in EC only.
If you want EP to reflect these values, they should be visible only, not required.
