3504945 - [Main KBA] Dynamic documents as email attachments are not sending - Onboarding

Symptom

Dynamic documents as email attachments are not sending.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Configure a business rule for dynamic document as email attachments
  2. Go to Email Services >> configure above rule in relative email template
  3. Email is triggered >> dynamic document is not sent

Cause

Cause 1: Email category/trigger used is not supported:

  • Dynamic documents as attachment are generated during document flow; only email triggers under "(ONB) Document Flow Message Category" are supported:
    • (ONB) Document Signature Declined Message To Participants Trigger
    • (ONB) Document Signature task creation Trigger
    • (ONB) Document Signature task creation for new hire Trigger
    • (ONB) Document Signature task completion Trigger
    • (ONB) Documents signed by New Hire Trigger

Cause 2: Incorrect PFS credentials configured in provisioning.

Cause 3: Incorrect business rule configuration.

Resolution

Scenario 1: 

Workaround: Maintain the text in attachment document directly into email body instead and add email tokens (e.g. [[FullName]], etc.) as per business needs for dynamic email content.

(*Note: Email body has maximum length "4000".)
