Symptom
- Customers may observe that despite Additional Internal Hire Activities switch being enabled, Onchange rules configured with the rule context “Internal Hire” are not triggered during Crossboarding initiation.
- Even though similar behavior is expected based on the RCM–EC Internal Hire process.
- This occurs even when Additional Internal Hire Activities switch is enabled.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding
Cause
- This occurs because the Onchange Rule execution for Crossboarding functionality is controlled by an internal sysconfig.
- If this sysconfig [not visible on the UI, it is a backend feature] is not enabled, the existing Internal Hire Onchange rules will not be executed during crossboarding initiation.
- This sysconfig is not visible in the UI and must be enabled by SAP Support
Resolution
- To ensure the expected behavior, customers must enable the “Onchange Rule for Crossboarding” functionality by raising a ticket with the component LOD-SF-OBX-XBD
- Based on customer feedback requesting consistent behavior with the RCM–EC Internal Hire process, SAP will remove this toggle starting in the 2H 2026 release and enable the functionality by default.
@Support, please refer to the internal memo.
