3631597 - Candidate not visible on Onboarding dashboard issue

Symptom

While initiating onboarding from Recruiting, receive the following error:

“An error occurred while saving the HRIS data for the user due to the following reason:
Country/Region Specific XML file does not have format defined for national ID type National Identity Card Number for Country/Region.”

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Initial onboarding from Recruiting
  2. Checked the business process configured to run as part of onboarding initiation.
  3. Error occurs specifically under the step: Validate HRIS Data for user: "Country/Region Specific XML file does not have format defined for national ID type National Identity Card Number for Country/Region XXX."

Cause

  • The format of the National Identity Card Number being sent from Recruiting (RCM) is different from the format configured in Manage Business Configuration (under natioanlIdCard_XXX).
  • This mismatch causes the system validation to fail during onboarding initiation. 

Resolution

  • Please check in Suite Integration Tool what exact National ID value is being sent from RCM.
  • Then, in Manage Business Configuration, verify that the field National Identity Card Number under nationalIdCard_XXX is configured to accept that format. If the value has hyphens, update the format accordingly.
  • Alternatively, adjust the mapping in RCM to send the value in the expected format.
