3644944 - Behavior of future class when revising existing items in SuccessFactors Learning

Symptom

When manually revising an item in UI page, how is the future class impacted if the option "Do you wish to change all future classes to use/access the new revision?" is selected?

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

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Learning

Resolution

Future Class is defined by comparing the timestamp when the revising happens and the start date of any slot within the classes.

For example, assuming that the revising happens on Aug 8th 15:00:

  1. Class 1
    • Only associated with one slot, scheduled to happen on Aug 1st 9:00-18:00
    • After revising, the class will still be associated with the old item version (because the class's schedule is from before the revisioning took place).

  2. Class 2
    • Only associated with one slot, scheduled to happen between Aug 1st 9:00-Aug 30th 18:00
    • After revising, the class will still be associated with the old item version (because the class's start date is from before the revisioning took place).

  3. Class 3
    • Has two slots:
      • Slot A: Aug 1st 9:00-18:00
      • Slot B: Aug 30th 9:00-18:00
    • After revising, the class will be associated with the new item version (because the start date of Slot B happens after the revisioning).

  4. Class 4
    • Associated with only one slot, scheduled to happen on Aug 8th 9:00-18:00
    • After revising, the class will still be associated with the old item version (because the class's schedule is from before the revisioning took place).

  5. Class 5
    • Associated with only one slot, scheduled to happen on Aug 30th 9:00-18:00
    • After revising, the class will be associated with the new item version (because its start date happens after the revisioning).

  6. Class 6
    • Associated with three slots:
      • Slot A: Aug 1st 9:00-18:00
      • Slot B: Aug 8th 9:00-18:00
      • Slot C: Aug 30th 9:00-18:00
    • After revising, the class will be associated with the new item version (because the start date of Slot C happens after the revisioning).
