Symptom
Reminder emails do not work for email templates with the Buddy Assignment Trigger.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to email services.
- Configure an email template with the email trigger - Buddy Assignment Trigger.
- In the configured template, create a reminder to trigger before or after the initial email is sent.
- Following this, complete the buddy task, assign a buddy to the onboardee and see that the initial email triggers.
- Allow time for the reminder to trigger as per the configuration and see that no reminder triggers.
Cause
This is expected behavior.
Resolution
- Reminders will not trigger for templates with the buddy assignment trigger.
- This is because the task is in status completed so there is no due date for the reminder to be triggered from.
- Enhancement requests can be submitted following KBA 2090228.
