3742271 - Not able to move country field from in-house address to other sections in Employee Edit view - SAP Cloud for Customer core applications

Symptom

  • In the Employee object, attempting to move the standard Country field from the In-House Address section to another section (for example, Organization Data) is not possible in adaptation mode.
  • In adaptation, the Move to dropdown for the Country field lists In-House Address multiple times and does not show other sections.
  • No error messages are displayed.

Environment

SAP Cloud for Customer

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Navigate to Administrator > Employees.
  2. Open any employee and select Edit.
  3. Enable Adaptation mode.
  4. Select the Country field in the In-House Address section.
  5. Open the Move to dropdown for the field; only In-House Address appears multiple times and other sections are not available.

Cause

The Country field is not an independent field; it is part of the address composite and, by design, must remain with the other address-related fields in the In-House Address section.

Resolution

  1. This is a standard behavior.
  2. Note that the Country field is part of the standard address group and is fixed to the In‑House Address section by system design; it cannot be moved to other sections via adaptation.
  3. Maintain Country together with the other address-related fields within the In‑House Address section.
