3335479 - OnChange Business Rule Not Triggering When Inputing the Same Value More than Once - Recruiting Management

Symptom

OnChange Business Rule does not trigger more than once if the same text input is provided twice or more. This behavior happens in any Recruiting form.

For example:

  • The rule is designed to validate if a text input exceeds 5 characters;
  • If the above criteria is matched, the rule will remove any character exceeding the limit.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Provide the value of "1234567890";
  2. The rule will change the input to "12345"
  3. Insert the value of "1234567890" again;
  4. Rule won't trigger;
  5. Provide any other value than "1234567890";
  6. Rule will trigger.

Cause

Business Rules in Recruiting are designed to store the initial value that triggers the rule and as long a different value isn't provided, the system understand the rule is running within the same session.

Resolution

The explained behavior is expected.
