Symptom
Fields aren't anonymized from the candidate snapshot on application although the fields set to anonymize=true in candidate profile template.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management
Reproducing the Issue
Configure fields in candidate profile as anonymize=true. Purge application and fields in candidate snapshot (more information) section aren't anonymized.
Cause
For fields to be anonymized in Candidate Snapshot page (Job Req --> Candidates --> Select a Candidate), the field has to be configured in "Job Req Application Template". If the field is configured only in Candidate Profile Template (and not in Job Req Application Template) then Candidate Snapshot won't be anonymized for those fields. This functionality is not supported.
Resolution
Fields need to be configured in the Job requisition application template also as anonymize=true to get purged.
Also, the information from the Application will only be anonymized when the Application Purge rule runs.
