3599998 - It is not possible to use custom attribute type in performance template and JPB

Symptom

  • We are getting option only for "Competency" and "Skill" under Attribute section of Performance template.
  • We are unable to link custom attribute created under TIH to Performance template

Environment

  • SAP SuccessFactors Performance Management
  • SAP SuccessFactors Talent Intelligent Hub

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Manage templates
  2. Open the Performance template 
  3. Navigate to Competency/attribute section
  4. Attribute Type drop down option shows for "Competency" and "Skill"
  5. There is no option for custom attribute type

Cause

Expected system design.

Resolution

As of now , it is not possible to use custom attribute type created in TIH in competency section of Performance form.

Only "competency" and "skill" attribute type are supported in Performance form. 

Engineering team has planned this feature in future roadmaps , but there is no timeline currently.

Custom attributes cannot be mapped in JPB also. This feature is planned tentatively in 2H 2025 release.
