Symptom
System consider lastLoginDate to calculate inactivity for the candidates purge.
When candidate profiles are created using API by third-party integrations, at the moment of the creation the lastLoginDate is filled with the current date.
However, since some third-party integrations do not use SuccessFactors Career Site, candidates don't access this portal and the lastLoginDate information is not updated anymore, even if they maintain activity in third-party side.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management
Resolution
This has been confirmed by Product Management as known limitation.
System will consider only the login in SuccessFactors career portal to update the lastLoginDate field.
Besides, at the moment, the lastLoginDate is not an upsertable field to be updated using API.
If this is important to your business, you can submit an enhancement request for consideration in future development cycles. To do so, please follow the steps outlined in the KBA 2090228 - How to submit enhancement ideas for SAP SuccessFactors Products.
