Symptom
When running an an existing Succession table report last modified before 2H 2025 release, error "The following selected view columns are not valid:" pops up.
Environment
- SAP SuccessFactors Succession Management
- SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
Reproducing the Issue
- Navigate to Report Center
- Choose a Succession report that was last modified at a time before 2H 2025 release.
- Run the report, then the below error pops up.
"The following selected view columns are not valid. 1. ???ANALYTICS_LIST_VIEW_BUILDER_SUBDOMAIN_succession_by_true_ec_position_succession_by_true_ec_position#go_loc_8???"
Cause
After the 2H 2025 release introduced a new field "Employment Type" to the Position object, which is causing this issue in the Succession Reporting. This is affecting all existing Succession table report created and last edited before the release, so when trying to run this existing report directly without any editing, an error will pop up.
Resolution
The fix for this issue is planned to be deployed with the patch b2511p6, which is is tentatively scheduled for November 25th for Preview and November 27th for Production environments.
