"Image / Data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental"
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
- Workflow
Cause
The "Respect Permission" setting is blank for the approver of step 2 because this approver was added after the workflow was initiated.
Resolution
1. Hover the mouse pointer over the title of the triggered workflow in Manage Workflow Requests to get workflowRequest Id.
2. Access "Data Inspector" and select the entity "Table_WF_REQUEST_STEP".
3. Define Filter Criteria:
Workflow Request ID > Enter the "workflowRequestId" > Show Data,
4. Check "Is Respect RBP" for every step.
5. Note "Is Respect RBP" is blank for the approver of step 2, because this approver is added by sfadmin after the workflow was initiated.
6. "Blank" equals "False", indicating that 'Respect Permission' is not applied for this approver.
