- IS_SHIFT_EMPLOYEE
- IS_FULLTIME_EMPLOYEE
- IS_ELIGIBLE_FOR_BENEFIT
- IS_ELIGIBLE_FOR_CAR
- IS_CROSS_BORDER_WORKER

Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central: Job information
Reproducing the Issue
Scenario 1
- The field is configured in the data model, but not visible by RBP permissions.
- Insert a new record in Job Information via UI or via import.
- The value is set as "f" (if the field(s) had null value earlier)
Scenario 2
- The field is not configured in the data model.
- Hire a new employee or add a contingent worker.
- Value is defaulted to "f" even though the field(s) are not configured.
Cause
This is a defect.
Resolution
- This defect has been fixed with 1H 2024 release.
- After the fix, the behavior is as follows:
- Insert new record via UI or import: value is copied over from previous record (null, f, t) independent of the field being configured in the data model.
- Hire scenarios: value is set to 'null' if the field is not configured in data model.
