Symptom
- Change Audit Reports for data changes at the user level for an MDF object are not generating as expected.
- Audit log appears blank despite attempts to generate it.
Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.
Environment
- SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
- Metadata Framework (MDF)
Reproducing the Issue
- Attempt to generate a Change Audit Report for a custom MDF in the People Profile.
- Make changes for a specific user ID in the test environment.
- Run the Audit Report and observe that the relevant records are not retrieved.
Cause
It is a known error investigated by our internal Engineering team.
Resolution
- Generate the audit by entering the user ID directly in the text field rather than using the search option, and keep the user id, as the example below:
- Ensure that MDF Version History is enabled in the object definition page and set to "Complete History."
- Verify that the Change Audit feature has not been disabled and re-enabled, as this action deletes existing audit data and creates a new blank audit database.
