3190717 - The picklist values are not translating into another language - Recruiting Management

Symptom

A picklist in the system is created with different translated, and all of the values are translated correctly, but the values are still not displaying in the correct translation. E.g. the picklist is translated into English US and Brazilian Portuguese, and the Default Values are following the English translation, but the Candidate Profile field using that picklist is showing all of the values in English although the system is using Brazilian Portuguese.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management

Cause

This issue is probably caused by a problem with the indexing of the picklist in the database.

Resolution

Please, try modifying one of the picklist options' label like adding a period (.), save it. Change it back, run an OData API Metadata Refresh. This refreshes the picklist values in the index and it syncs the translations correctly as it enforces the change, so it should fix the issue.
