3450777 - The Personal Data Collection data validation rule/hire template rule is not working - Onboarding

Symptom

The execution result of the data validation rule or hire template rule configured during the Personal Data Collection step is not as expected, although the candidate matches the rule condition.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding

Reproducing the Issue

1. Data validation rule/hire template rule was configured during the Personal Data Collection step.

2. Onboarding was initiated for a candidate, who proceeded to the PDC step.

3. Though the candidate's data matches the rule condition, the expected result from the rule execution is not obtained.

Cause

The field that serves as a rule condition has its object visibility for external users set to "No".

Resolution

Using the External User Visibility tool, update the related object to be visible to new hires during the Personal Data Collection step.

Implementation Guides:

Note: Please avoid using Job Info fields as rule conditions. Job Info is not visible to candidates in PDC and cannot be changed.
