Symptom
After a rehire, a pop-up application error appears when attempting to edit Job Information or Organizational Information in the employee profile.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding
Reproducing the Issue
- Navigate to the employee profile of a recently re-hired employee.
-
Click on the History / Edit icon.
-
Select Job Information or Organizational Information.
-
The application displays an error.
Cause
- The error occurs due to a null value in the onboarding integration data, specifically the Target Date field in the Onboarding Info object. This causes a NullPointerException when the system attempts to compare dates during data validation for rehired employees.
Resolution
-
A corrective script needs to be executed to address the null value in the onboarding data.
-
Following the script execution, the employee’s Job Information and Organizational Information history were verified and are now accessible without errors.
Product Support: Refer to the internal memo for detailed logs and execution results.
