2866502 - An Application Error appears when submitting a New Hire from Add New Employee

Symptom

  • An Application Error appears when submitting a New Hire from Add New Employee
  • In the Server Logs, the error shows as Wrapped Exception: cannot set timeInCurrentPosition in UserBean

Environment

  • SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central - New Hire
  • SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central - HRIS Sync

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Add New Employee.
  2. Fill up the data for a new Employee.
  3. Submit the new hire.

Cause

The HRIS field timeInPosition in Employee Central is mapped to the Standard Field timeInCurrentPosition in BizX. Both these fields are transient which means the values are calculated by the system and are not saved in the Database. These fields should not be mapped.

Resolution

Remove the HRIS Sync Mapping for timeInCurrentPosition and the Employee should then be hired successfully.
Please reach out to Cloud Support to check the logs from the Application Error.
