Symptom
- The file path for SFTP scheduled jobs for Canvas Reports is being altered at runtime, causing reports to be delivered to the wrong folder on the SFTP server.
- Although the file path appears correct after saving the job, it changes to a different folder when the daily job executes.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Learning
Reproducing the Issue
- Login to SAP SuccessFactors Learning.
- Access Report Centre.
- View all schedules.
- Select all schedules.
- Access Canvas Report.
- Click on actions.
- Cancel job.
- Edit job.
- Click on Step 2 & Step 3.
- Notice the file path name has changed.
- Update file path to /Canvas_Report and save.
- Click view schedule and run now.
- Go back to schedule and submit for next day's run.
- Next day, check SFTP server and notice that the reports are delivered to the wrong folder on the SFTP server.
Cause
The file path (folder name) defined in the SFTP schedule configuration is being stored in the database table and it is overwritten each time with the latest update value. When a scheduled report job runs, it retrieves the folder path from this table, which always contains only the most recent value. As a result, the file is created in the newly updated folder location, causing the issue.
