Symptom
Is it possible to remove fields from External Candidate creation within Succession?
**Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental**
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Succession Management (SCM)
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Succession Org Chart
- Seach user/position & click on 'Successors' for that position
- External Candidate >> Create Candidate
- All fields are mandatory
Cause
It is not possible to remove these fields. Each field is required as a minimum amount of information required to create an External Candidate within the system. Name of the user is necessary as well as the e-mail which will be used as the Primary ID for the candidate. The Country Field is then required for Data Protection purposes.
