Symptom
- After migrating to TIH and/or Latest Goal Management, the competency filters no longer work on the Development plan.
- The filter is set on a specific Library or Category, but all Competencies are visible and selectable instead of only a filtered selection.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Succession & Development
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Goals
- Go to Development
- Select the Development Plan which has competency filters
- Create a new Goal from scratch
- Verify all Competencies are visible and selectable
Cause
The issue can be caused by the inclusion of the following code in the Development Plan XML: <switch for="show-competency-browser" value="on" />
Resolution
- Identify the code in the Development Plan XML.
- Change the value from "on" to "off" as follows: <switch for="show-competency-browser" value="off" />
- Reupload the plan
- Verify if the issue still occurs.
Note: Using skills in Career Development Planning:
If you are using TIH and if you have configured the competencies field in the development goal plan template, users can use a picker to add skills and competencies to development goals.
Using <exclude type="skills"/> or <exclude type="questions"/> to exclude the competency type starting with "TYPE_SKILL_" or "TYPE_QUESTION_" isn't supported.
However, <include type="category" match="category name" library="library name"/> isn't supported.
The terms "library" and "category" are replaced with "tag" in Talent Intelligence Hub. You can use either of the following configurations to filter skills and competencies by tag:
...
</default-category>
<competency-filters>
<exclude type="forms"/>
<exclude type="roles"/>
<include type="library" match="tag name"/>
</competency-filters>
<field-definition ...>
...
</default-category>
<competency-filters>
<exclude type="forms"/>
<exclude type="roles"/>
<include type="category" match="tag name"/>
</competency-filters>
<field-definition ...>
