2602352 - How to update the shopping account type in Learning to 'External' using the connector based on status

Set the shopping account type as external type.

SAP SuccessFactors Learning

Learning uses a copy of the property to set the shopping account type based upon the STATUS value.

The options are:

• INTERNAL = internal shopping account.
• EXTERNAL = external shopping account.

By default, the mapping of the employee status to the Learning shopping account type is:

• ACTIVE = Internal.
• ACTIVE_EXTERNAL = External.
• INACTIVE = Internal.
• INACTIVE_EXTERNAL = External.

To make this work, the following must exist in the "CONNECTORS" configuration file.

sfuser.field.mapping.data.NOTACTIVE=STATUS
sfuser.field.transform.data.NOTACTIVE.N=active,active_external,ACTIVE,ACTIVE_EXTERNAL
sfuser.field.transform.data.NOTACTIVE.Y=inactive,inactive_external,INACTIVE,INACTIVE_EXTERNAL
sfuser.connector.copy.field.mappings=SHOPPING_ACCT_TYPE=NOTACTIVE, JL_DESC=JL_ID, COL_NUM8_VAL=ORG_ID, REGION_ID=DMN_ID, COL_NUM12_VAL=ACCT_ID
sfuser.field.transform.data.SHOPPING_ACCT_TYPE.INTERNAL=active,ACTIVE,inactive,INACTIVE
sfuser.field.transform.data.SHOPPING_ACCT_TYPE.EXTERNAL=active_external,ACTIVE_EXTERNAL,inactive_external,INACTIVE_EXTERNAL

If you are using the User Connector, replace "sfuser" with "user".

Note: The employee export job in BizX provisioning does not include employees with the "active_external" or "inactive_external" statuses. Hence, to get them updated in Learning, a user data file for these external employees must be manually and separately generated and placed in the SFTP folder.
