Symptom
Error "The job profile is currently in workflow." received when trying to import Role-Competency mapping file.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Job Profile Builder
Reproducing the Issue
- Create a Role-Competency mapping file.
- Import the file through the Import and Export Data Tool or from Manage Job Profile Content Import/Export.
- Check the MDF Data Import job from Scheduled Job Manager.
- Notice that the job fails with the error "The job profile is currently in workflow."
Cause
- There are pending Job Profile workflows in "Draft" or "Pending" status, this can be verified in Manage Job Profile > In-Workflow Job Profile.
- The roles associated with these in-progress workflows are included in the Role-Competency mappings being imported, which leads to the issue.
Resolution
To resolve the issue, either:
-
Complete the pending Job Profile workflows so they are no longer in "Draft" or "Pending" status,
OR
-
Remove from the import file any roles that are linked to Job Profiles with change requests currently in workflow.
