Symptom
The rule in payment information configured to raise an error message is not working while submitting the hire. This happens only when there is a workflow involved.
Environment
- SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central - Hire and Rehire Employee
Reproducing the Issue
- Create a rule under Payment information to raise an error message on certain condition during hire/rehire.
- Go to rehire inactive employee.
- Select the user and submit the hire.
- Notice that the error message didn't pop up, as configured.
Cause
This is an expected behavior.
Resolution
