3793729 - Multiple values are not supported in Matrix Position filter in Mass Data Management

Symptom

In Mass Data Management for Position mass changes, selecting multiple values in the Matrix Position filter returns a different count when the same position values are chosen as a filter in a different order. The filter appears to respect only the first selected matrix position value.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central - Mass Data Management (Mass Change for Position)

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Mass Data Management and start a Position mass change
  2. Adapt Filters and enable the Matrix Position filter
  3. Select multiple matrix positions (for example, positions A, B, C) in a given order and apply the filters; note the number of returned positions
  4. Clear all filters, select the same set of positions in a different order (for example, B, C, A), and apply the filters; observe that the returned count differs

Cause

The Matrix Position filter currently supports only a single position value. When multiple values are selected, the system effectively evaluates only the first selected value.

Resolution

The Engineering team have created an enhancement (JIRA Reference#ECT-276775) to support multiple matrix position values. This is planned to be deployed in the 1H 2027 release. 

Workaround:

Until the enhancement is deployed, use a single matrix position value in the Matrix Position filter, run the mass change, and repeat for each additional position as needed.
