Symptom
When clicking the “OK” button on the EMOS warning pop-up while sending the form to the next step, the overall rating is not updated. Instead, the page remains in a loading state and the same warning pop-up appears repeatedly.
This behavior occurs only in the Legacy Form Experience and does not occur in the Latest Form Experience.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Performance Management
Reproducing the Issue
- Open a performance form where EMOS is configured to trigger based on a rating field (e.g., behavior or overall assessment rating).
- Set the EMOS-triggering rating field to a value that meets the warning condition (e.g., a low rating). Simultaneously, set the overall form rating to a value exceeding the allowed threshold defined by the EMOS configuration.
- Attempt to route the form to the next step. Observe that an EMOS warning popup is displayed.
- Click "OK" on the warning popup. The page continues loading, and the same warning popup reappears repeatedly.
- Click "Cancel" on the warning popup. The ratings remain unchanged and reflect the user-entered values.
- Save the form. The warning popup appears again. Clicking either "OK" or "Cancel" closes the popup, and the overall rating is automatically adjusted to the allowed value.
