3495188 - onChange business rule evaluating country-of-company previous value as Null - Employee Central

It is not possible to use Previous Value from country-of-company for a business rule set as onChange on another jobInfo field.

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

Firstly, you need to create a simple onChange rule with the expression IF Job Information Model.Country.Previous Value is equal to Job Information Model.Country.Value or vice-versa. Then:

1. Certify you have created another expression to trigger rule when changing field value
2. Place it in Manage Business Configuration > jobInfo > Field you are using to change to trigger rule
3. Prepare Rule Trace as per KBA2257064
4. Make changes in Profile to trigger study rule
5. Download Rule Trace

You'll see that "jobInfo_country_of_company.previousValue" is considering Value= Null.

Hard-coded field as per Product Design.

Expected Behavior once this field depends on Picklist ID: ISOCountryList and it's associated to Legal Entity.

In alternative, use the expression to navigate to Country within the Company, for example "Job Information Model.Company.Previous Value.Country".
