2633808 - Onboarding Buddy Email Received in Wrong Language - Onboarding 1.0

Symptom

The buddy of a new hire receives the "Buddy Email Notification" in English even though their locale/ language is not en-GB or en-US.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding 1.0

Cause

  • The behaviour of the Buddy Email Notification, is such that if the language/ locales for the buddy and new hire differ e.g. nl-NL and en-GB, the system will send the email notification in the default language en-US.
  • This is the behaviour that was agreed upon by the Product Management team when this feature was first implemented.
