3650339 - "To be Hired" flag does not update when termination record is imported

Symptom

After termination record is added via import or API upsert, no record is added in position to update "To be Hired" flag from "No" to "Yes"

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Import termination record for an employee 
  2. Click on the related position 
  3. No record is added to the position showing "To be Hired" flag changing from "No" to "Yes"

Cause

Expected behaviour - "To Be Hired" adaptation is not triggered via Termination import or API. The to be hired flag is not updated as there is no position change but an employment status change. 

Resolution

"To Be Hired" adaptation only takes place if the position is changed and if the employee has an active employment status. For example, the "To Be Hired" status is not updated when you import Job Information with the termination event.
