Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

Reproducing the Issue

Through import:

  1. While logged in as an user with permission to trigger rules during import, go to 'Import Employee Data';
  2. Select 'Import Data' and entity 'Compensation Information';
  3. Select a file and validate it;
  4. Warning message appears in the top.

Through UI:

  1. Go to the profile of an user;
  2. Go to Compensation Information portlet and click on edit;
  3. Edit some information and click save;
  4. Warning message pops up.

Cause

There is a business rule under compensation information element configured to check a pay component, with the expression "The rule selects one entry from the collection "Compensation" where..." assigned to one or more pay components under the same block.

In the example below it is possible to see that more than one pay component is being checked by the rule in the 'Set' expression:

When there is a rule configured this way and the employee that is being updated does not have the mentioned pay component assigned to their compensation information, the warning message appears.

Resolution

Reconfigure the rule and keep only one pay component selection on each expression. The warning message will also not appear if the employee has the pay component mentioned by the rule assigned to their compensation information.
