3758740 - Job requisition fields are not editable even though permissions are given - Recruiting Management

Symptom

Job requisition fields are not editable even though all permissions are correctly configured.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Recruiting
  2. Select any Job Requisition
  3. notice that fields that have write permission for the user in that status are not editable

Cause

A custom translation for the message key RECRUITING_CLOSE_JOB_REQ_CONFIRM used double quotes around the phrase “Requisition Closed”, causing a string termination syntax error. 
This prevented field types from loading and led to a “RCMJobReqRenderer is not defined” error in the UI.

Resolution

  1. Open the custom translation for the message key RECRUITING_CLOSE_JOB_REQ_CONFIRM
  2. Replace the double quotes around Requisition Closed with single quotes
  3. Save the change
  4. Reopen a job requisition and verify that fields load and are editable
