Symptom
Error when trying to run a PM or SM purge within the purge download report.
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 HCM Suite
- SAP SuccessFactors Compensation
- SAP SuccessFactors Variable Pay
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Data Retention Management and create a purge request on PM or SM data.
- In this example the user is inactive and the uploaded file contains the document ID of the PM form.
- Add your required approvers and "launch Immediately".
- When approving the job and checking the request the status shows "Completed with errors".
- Click on "View result", download the zip file and open the "FormTemplateObjectType.csv" file.
- Here we can see the failure within the notes section.
Cause
This is caused by the logged in employee who approves the request not having correct RBP permissions in Compensation & Variable Pay.
Resolution
To correct this issue assign the two following permissions to the user.
- Manage Compensation> Manage Compensation Forms
- Manage Variable Pay> Manage Variable Pay Forms
Note: The Template ID is populated in the preview report of DRTM Performance Reviews Purge. This is helpful to purge the correct form when the PM form is used as rating source when forecasting for the VRP plan.
