3589264 - onChange Rule Doesn't Set Field on Import - Employee Central

Business rule is not setting value for a field when importing employee data. There is a onChange rule assigned to a field in the BCUI to set value to another field in the same HRIS element.

1. Assign onChange rule to a field A that will set value for a field B;
2. Import Employee Data with field A;
3. Check employee profile;
4. Field A was changed according to the import file but field B stays the same;

Both fields need to be in the import file. When trying to set B with an onChange rule assign to A, a column for field B needs to be in the import file with no value as system design.

If the column for field B is not in the import file, the rule will trigger but nothing will change in the profile for field B.

Add a column for for both fields in the import file and leave the target field with not value. 

Note: To ensure the import file is classified as a change in field A, you must add a value to field A that is different from the existing value in the profile. Otherwise, the rule will not be triggered.
