Symptom
In the 1808 release, Manage Business Configuration (BCUI) now supports HRIS Sync Mappings for "userinfo-element" and "user-info-record-key".
This enhancement allows users to maintain their own HRIS Sync configuration.
Environment
Employee Central - 1808
Resolution
When you go to Manage Business Configuration and select "Details" for a field listed under a HRIS Element, you will now see 2 more options as well as the option to map to standard-element fields. They are list as follows:
-
HRIS Sync Mapping:Standard field (standard-element) > Used to synchronize to Standard fields in Employee Profile
- HRIS Sync Mapping:User info field (userinfo-element) > Used to synchronize to Userinfo fields in Employee Profile
- HRIS Sync Mapping:User info Record Key (user-info-record-key) > Used for the Employee Central Variable Pay integration - please ensure that this is ONLY configured on the "company" field, and not configured on multiple fields.
SPECIAL NOTE: Post 1808 Release
Please note that when 1808 is deployed, even if you have HRIS Sync Mappings configured in the Succession Data Model xml for "userinfo-element" and "user-info-record-key", they will not automatically display in Manage Business Configuration after the 1808 release. You must instead open a Support case with SAP Cloud Product Support > Employee Central, to have your Succession Data Model xml exported and reimported again to trigger the Manage Business Configuration to update.
If you are not already using "userinfo-element" and "user-info-record-key" mappings, then you will not need to reload the XML.
How to view all Sync Mappings without access to Provisioning
As the Sync Mappings are configured on each field (Details) in Manage Business Configuration, it can be difficult to see what mappings you aready have.
