3381526 - Field defined as mandatory in Person Type is displaying as non mandatory in employee profile - Employee Central

After configuring a field as mandatory in Person Type within Manage Business Configuration, you noticed that in employee profile it still shows as non mandatory.

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

1. Navigate to Manage Business Configuration;
2. Create a Person Type;
3. Set a field as mandatory;
4. Go to the profile of any employee;
5. Notice the field set as mandatory is still non mandatory.

The corresponding HRIS Element has Country/Region maintained.

When the HRIS Element has Country Specific (Country/Region) configuration maintained, Person Type needs to be configured inside of the Country Specific configuration.

To solve the issue, in Manage Business Configuration:

1. Either configure Person Type inside of employee's Country Specific (Country/Region);
2. Or remove all the Country Specifics (Country/Region) from the HRIS Element.
