3671069 - API Call for Manager PersonID field needed from onboarding

Symptom

  • An integration between SuccessFactors and Microsoft AD requires the manager's PersonID for all users. Currently, this information is retrieved from the custom10 field of the User entity/UDF file.
  • However, onboardees do not have UDF entries created until their hire date, resulting in delays in onboarding as the manager PersonID is not populated.
  • Multiple fields in other APIs, such as Employment information, Job information, and ONB2Process, were explored but did not provide the required manager PersonID. The JobInformation API contains a supervisor/managerID field, but it only provides the manager's username, not the PersonID.
  • The issue causes delays in onboarding when additional permissions are required, as the manager PersonID is only available post-hire.
