Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental. 

Environment

SuccessFactors Recruiting Management

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Recruiting
  2. Open Candidate Workbench
  3. Select an Application
  4. Numbers are in order in English Language
  5. Change Language to Hebrew / Arabic and replicate it again
  6. Number sequence is changed

Cause

Expected Behaviour

Resolution

The numbers are sequenced as 1234 - 5678 ~ 9, the system is taking this as separate words

First Word is (1234)
Second Word is (-)
Third Word is (5678)
Fourth Word is (~)
Fifth Word is (9)

So in English it shows as "1234 - 5678 ~ 9 But in Hebrew it will show as "9 ~ 5678 - 1234"

It follows the Right-to-Left and aligns them as words, if you type the numbers without breaking them up then it will show as one word as seen above '1234' does not change the order
