The HRIS sync mapping for the Country is Fields Hard-Coded in the system using the Coprorate Address of the Location (Job Information > Location > Corporate Address > Country).

The system synchronizes some Employee Central data based on the hard-coded sync mappings from HRIS fields to standard and userinfo elements.

To avoid unexpected behaviors, don't delete nor duplicate hard-coded sync mappings.
