Symptom
- When clicking "Submit" on Onboarding task completion pages (for example, Additional Data Collection, Assign a Buddy), a modal with the message "Run a Quick Action" appears and blocks proceeding/closing the step; behavior is intermittent.
- A similar "Run a Quick Action" pop-up appears on configuration pages such as Manage Permission Roles, preventing save/submit actions.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding 2.0
Reproducing the Issue
- Navigate to an Onboarding 2.0 task (for example, Additional Data Collection or Assign a Buddy).
- Click Submit to complete the task.
- Observe that a “Run a Quick Action” pop-up appears and prevents progression.
- Optionally, go to Admin > Manage Permission Roles and attempt to save/submit; observe similar behavior.
Cause
An in-app guidance overlay (WalkMe) was enabled and launched a “Run a Quick Action” modal that intercepted the Submit action on affected pages.
Resolution
- Verify whether the in-app guidance/WalkMe feature is enabled for the instance.
- Temporarily disable the WalkMe (or the specific walkthrough/launcher that triggers “Run a Quick Action”) at the tenant level.
- Retest submitting the Onboarding task and saving changes in Manage Permission Roles to confirm the pop-up no longer appears.
- If resolved, refine the WalkMe configuration to avoid launching on Submit actions for these pages, or keep the conflicting guidance disabled.
- Re-enable guidance incrementally (if required) to identify and adjust any specific flow that causes the interference.
