Symptom
When creating the SM- Mapping to country field the information does not flow to Employee Profile.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management
Reproducing the Issue
- Create sm-mapping in the Candidate Profile Template
- Save candidate profile template
- Error: Picklist field country is mapped to a non picklist field.
Cause
This is a system limitation. You can not map a picklist field to a non picklist field.
Resolution
Both country fields are standard fields in both candidate profile and Employee profile. In the employee profile the field type is a text and the candidate profile the field type will be a Picklist and that is why the mapping of the field country is not supported.
