Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Click on the Profile Icon in the global header
  2. Click in "Reset Password"
  3. "Current Field" is auto completed by browser
  4. After entering New Password twice, the "Save" button is still appearing as greyed out and not clickable

Cause

In previous version, Save button is displayed as clickable by default and it validates the required field after being clicked.

However, in b2411 version, the Save button is greyed out by default and it will be clickable automatically when all required field are validated as not null.

However, it failed to recognize the "Current Password" field as not null when it is auto completed by browser "remember password" function.

And it caused the "Save" button to be not clickable.

Resolution

The solution to this issue is currently under investigation.

Engineering team plan to revert the "Save" button to be always clickable by default.

Please follow this KBA for updates.

Workaround before the issue is fixed:

  1. Add any letter to the "Current Password" field which is auto completed by browser, and then left click on any space on the pop up widget.
  2. You will find that the "Save" button is available now
  3. Then go back to "Current Password" column and remove the extra letter you added just now
  4. Click on "Save" button
