3758620 - Position code not available in cds i_workassgmtdetsdex or manage workforce app; recommended alternatives – SAP s/4hana cloud public edition

Symptom

  • Not able to find POSITIONCODE in CDS I_WORKASSGMTDETSDEX.
  • Integrating employee data along with job details from SuccessFactors to S/4HANA.
  • POSITIONCODE not visible in the Manage Workforce app (App ID F6097A).
  • Checked CDS view I_WORKASSGMTDETSDEX, but POSITIONCODE is not visible.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open the app Manage Workforce (App ID F6097A).
  2. Search for a worker and open the worker record.
  3. Navigate to the job details section and observe that the Position Code is not displayed.
  4. Check the CDS view I_WorkAssgmtDetsDEX and observe that the Position Code field is not available.

Cause

  • Position Code is not stored in the Workforce Data Model (WFD) in S/4HANA Cloud.
  • The persistence table WFD_D_ASSGMTDETS does not contain a Position/Position Code field.
  • Consequently, released CDS views I_WorkAssgmtDetsDEX and I_WorkAssignmentDetail do not expose a Position Code.
  • Position data from SuccessFactors is not persisted during MDI synchronization to S/4HANA.

Resolution

1.Use Job Code as an alternative:

  • Leverage field WorkforcePersonJobCode available in CDS I_WorkAssgmtDetsDEX (synchronized from SuccessFactors).
  • Adjust Flexible Workflow agent determination rules to use Job Code when role/job function-based routing is acceptable.

2.Use Supervisor Work Assignment for manager-based routing:

  • Leverage field SupervisorWorkAssignmentExtID available in CDS I_WorkAssgmtDetsDEX to determine the direct manager as the approver.
