Symptom
- An issue arises when a minor change is made to the role, such as updating the role description.
- The last modified date updates to the current date on all role assignments, even though the role assignment was not altered.
- This issue is the exact opposite of the one described in KBA 3544379 - Last Modified Date not updated with change in Role Assignment - Latest Role-Based Permissions Pages
Environment
- SAP SuccessFactors HCM suite
Reproducing the Issue
- Make a minor change to the role, such as updating the role description.
- Observe that the last modified date updates to the current date on the role Page but also on all role assignments.
Cause
- The issue arises from the fact that the role assignment was created in the legacy UI.
- In the legacy UI, the role assignment does not have a specific name and lacks an independent last modified date.
- As a result, the last modified date for the role assignment defaults to the date associated with the role.
Resolution
- Identify the role assignments created in the legacy UI. These can be identified by a name like "No Name (Click “Edit” to get a system-generated name for the assignment.)".
- Edit the identified role assignments in the latest UI.
- Post-editing, the issue of incorrect update of the last modified date should no longer occur.
