Symptom
- After 1H2025 release, fields marked as Translatable are now required to be reportable too.
- Error message: "Translatable field must be reportable"
- Unable to save the plan when changing Field-Based Permissions (FBP).
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Compensation
Reproducing the Issue
- Login to SAP SuccessFactors Compensation module.
- Navigate to Compensation Home > Access the Plan > Design Worksheet.
- Edit any fields visibility and Field-Based Permissions (FBP).
- Attempt to save the changes.
- Validation Error will show up indicating that a translatable field must be set to reportable.
Cause
The issue is caused by a system behavior change implemented in the 1H2025 release. The requirement for making translatable fields reportable was introduced to resolve a previous gap where the correct label from Employee Central (EC) was not displayed for translatable fields.
Resolution
This issue is tentatively planned to be fixed through patch, which will be available in Preview on June 3rd and in Production on June 5th.
