Symptom
"Position title" is the label of externalName in Position Object, it is a translatable field. The translation for the position title was updated in Manage Position, but it didn't create a corresponding record in the incumbent's job information for syncing.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
- Position Management
Cause
Position Title field is not listed in the Position to Job Information sync rule
Resolution
- Create a custom-string field in Manage Business Configuration<JobInfo, label it as "Position Title"
- Grant permission to view this field.
- Go to Position Management Settings<Synchronization tab
- Click to open the business rule configured in "Rule for Synchronizing Position to Job Information"
- Correct the rule to add one more set
- Set Job Information.Position Title to be equal to Job Information.Position Title. English(United Kingdom)
In this case, when the UK translation of a position title is updated either in Manage Positions or in the Position Org Chart edit mode, a job information record will be created in the incumbent's job information for syncing purposes.
