Symptom
When creating Role Assignments in RBP UI, it requires a name:
However, when creating the same Role Assignments through API, no names are requested. This results in the Role Assignment being created with a generic automatic name, which is not the same behavior as the UI.
When querying RBPRule to retrieve data of this Role Assignment, its name is not returned in any fields either.
Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.
Environment
- SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
- OData API
Reproducing the Issue
Resolution
RBPRule entity represents the legacy RBP UI in SuccessFactors, when a name for Role Assignments was still not a required value.
So, currently, RBPRule does not support creating Role Assignments with specific names when being Upserted, and it can't retrieve their names when being queried.
