3166761 - mfield is used as a token, and it's rendering as a number instead of a value - Recruiting Management

Symptom

The job requisition has an mfield configured, and this mfield is configured as a token in the job requisition description. In there, the mfield is rendering as a number instead of the value selected in the dropdown.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management

Cause

The picklist ID configured in Internal and External Applicant Search Settings has been modified, and changed to a different picklist.

Resolution

When the picklist ID is modified in a field, then the option ID of the previously selected value remains selected as this is the current value in the data base. Since RCM stores the option ID of the picklist value, then that is why the number displays instead of the label -- it is the option ID of the previously configured picklist. When this happens, the values must be re-selected. To remove the old ones, you can select all values, un-select all values again so it will remove everything, and select the correct values.
