Symptom
There are fields available to report through Adhoc Reports, but each time that it's tried to add them to the report, they are not added, even when we select all fields. No error message is displayed, the fields are simply not added.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management
Cause
The fields are data fields from background elements. These fields' field-name attribute have the same ID in the Candidate Profile, and don't match with the field-names from Data Model. Example:
<data-field id="datafield1" field-name="vfld2" max-length="4000" anonymize="false">
<data-field id="datafield2" field-name="vfld2" max-length="4000" anonymize="false">
Resolution
To fix this, it would require to adjust the field-name to the correct ones, and matching with the Data Model information.
That can be done through Manage Templates or by engaging an Implementation Partner or SAP Professional Services through Provisioning.
NOTE: It's not possible to determine whether the data once inserted in these fields will be able to be restored or if was saved at all. But maintain it as it is right now could cause issues in the future in case you try to hire a candidate through Manage Pending Hires, for example.
