Symptom
- In Configure Object Definitions > Sequence, the MDF Version History field is set to No by default.
- When attempting to save after setting MDF Version History to "Complete History", the error appears: "You are not allowed to change the value of attribute MDF Version History for this object Sequence.".
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Configure Object Definitions.
- Open the Sequence object and choose Make Correction.
- Set the MDF Version History field to Complete History.
- Save the object.
- Observe the error: "You are not allowed to change the value of attribute MDF Version History for this object Sequence."
Cause
This is expected behavior after the 1H 2026 release product enhancement.
Resolution
This change was applied as product enhancement of the 1H 2026 release.
The Sequence object was excluded from Change Audit and its MDF Version History attribute is non‑editable by design to avoid performance impact and increase audit reliability.
