Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding
Reproducing the Issue
- Navigate to Admin Center > Maintain Onboarding and Offboarding Document Templates.
- Upload an .xdp document.
- Observe the error:
ChangeSet index 1 - ???Error during placeholder extraction. The uploaded template was therefore deleted. - HCP Error Message: Http Status Code 500??? - Upload the same document as a .pdf = Successful
- Upload the same document as a .pdf in SAP demo = Successful
Cause
The issue is caused by a PFS misconfiguration, where the existing PFS URL/account does not currently support .xdp files.
Resolution
The OData service endpoint must be configured to support .xdp files.
To proceed:
- Please create a support case with SAP Support, providing the PFS credentials.
- SAP Support will create an Operations ticket to update the OData service endpoint configuration.
