SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding

1. Populate a position for the candidate in Onboarding.
2. Proceed to the "Review New Hire Data" step.
3. Observe that the "Start Date in First Job" field is read-only despite the user having edit permissions.

• Standard behavior when the hire is initiated via "Add New Employee to This Position" from the Position Org Chart: certain fields, including Hire Date/Start Date, are auto-derived and displayed as read-only in the Hire/Rehire wizard.
• Role-Based Permissions do not apply within the wizard and cannot override this design.

1. If the hire was initiated using "Add New Employee to This Position" from the Position Org Chart, note this is by design: the Start Date and related fields are read-only in the Hire/Rehire wizard, and RBP does not apply or override this behavior.
2. It is not feasible to configure the Start Date as mandatory in Onboarding while keeping it non-mandatory in EC; the EC Job Information start date is system-required.
