Symptom
Numeric Option ID appearing instead of Picklist Value in the UI for certain languages.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Employee Profile
- Got to Job Information portlet.
- Notice that numeric Option ID is appearing instead of picklist value.
Cause
Translations have not been entered for this specific value.
When the leading entity is MDF for example Position, Department , or Custom MDF Object, then the default language value will be used by the system rather than the Option ID.
However, when the leading entity is not an MDF entity, for example Job Information, Compensation Information, Recruiting Management etc, translations must be maintained for all active locales, otherwise the numeric Option ID will be pulled.
Resolution
Ensure to maintain translations for picklist values for all active locales/languages.
