3676750 - Talent Hybrid Integration (BizX Add-on): RH_SFI_SYNCHRONIZE_EMPL_DATA: Gender Values

Symptom

RH_SFI_SYNCHRONIZE_EMPL_DATA throws error: 'Invalid property value. Property name:gender.' (HRSFI_EMPL_DATA 019).

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

Environment

Integration add-on for SAP ERP HCM and SAP SuccessFactors HCM

Reproducing the Issue

1. In infotype 0002 the values for 'Gender' can be defined as follows:
(Please not that the gender definitions vary from one country to another. This is an example (South Africa, Country code (Molga) = 16.) 

* 1 (Male)
* 2 (Female)
* blank (Unknown)  --> This value has been selected for the employee.


2. RH_SFI_SYNCHRONIZE_EMPL_DATA: Selection parameter 'Gender' is configured as '1 Infotype 0002 / Standard Mapping':




3. Error 'Invalid property value. Property name:gender.' is visible in the program log or in table HRSFI_D_ERR_LOG.



Cause

These are the gender values as of Success Factors, API Reference Guide (OData V2) - Inserting a Gender of a User

 



Resolution

To send values which are compatible to SuccessFactors definition above, in this case a value 'U' for 'Unknown' (instead of 'blank'), please:

  1. Implement SAP Note 3277802 - RH_SFI_SYNCHRONIZE_EMPL_DATA: Enhancement of the gender key

  2. In RH_SFI_SYNCHRONIZE_EMPL_DATA, for selection parameter 'Gender', choose '2 Infotype 0002 / Enhanced Standard Mapping':
     



  3. Prerequisite: This functionality can be used only in ODATA version of RH_SFI_SYNCHRONIZE_EMPL_DATA (not in SFAPI (SOAP) version)!
    To enable Odata version, see SAP notes

    2782467
    * 2342729
    * 2318969

    (You can ignore 3. when RH_SFI_SYNCHRONIZE_EMPL_DATA is used in Odata version already.)
