Symptom
- The standard validation for postal codes in Latvia only allows four numeric digits and prevents entry of the "LV-NNNN" format.
- The error message displayed is: "Wrong Format of the zip code expecting format NNNN".
- The issue occurs when entering postal codes for a person attached to a legal entity operating in Latvia.
Environment
SuccessFactors Employee Central 2605
Reproducing the Issue
- Enter a postal code in the format "LV-NNNN" for a person attached to a legal entity operating in Latvia.
- Observe the error message: "Wrong Format of the zip code expecting format NNNN".
Cause
The current behavior is expected.
Resolution
An additional format allowing the "LV-" prefix is planned for the 1H 2027 release.
Until the planned enhancement is delivered, continue to use the four-digit NNNN format for Latvian postal codes.
