Environment

SuccessFactors Onboarding.

Cause

Lacking of 'is primary' field in Primary Emergency Contact section, need to make it visible for onboardee. The system behaviour is:

  • If onboardee data model is enabled, it is mandatory to add primary_flag field in the succession and the onbaordee data model for this HRIS Element. Then isPrimary field will appear in Provide Personal Data step.
  • If the Onboardee data model was not configured, then the isPrimary flag would appear directly without enabling this field.

Resolution

  • Navigate to 'Manage business configuration'.
  • Find 'emergencyContactPrimary' HRIS Element, and add primary_flag field in the succession and the onbaordee data model.

  • Then 'is Primary' field will appear.
