3801096 - Error "the feature required for this object definition is not enabled" when editing MDF Object Definitions

Symptom

  • An error occurs when attempting to edit the object TRBizxSuiteLifeCycleStageEventForServiceWarningSource.
  • Error message "TRBizxSuiteLifeCycleStageEventForServiceWarningSource cannot be created or updated because the feature required for this object definition is not enabled."

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Access the MDF object.
  2. Go to Configure Object Definitions.
  3. Edit any field of the object.
  4. Save the configuration.
  5. Observe the error and that the changes are not saved.

Cause

The affected system MDF objects (for example, TRBizxSuiteLifeCycleStageEventForServiceWarningSource, parent TRBizxSuiteExecutionSource) were renamed and are no longer present. These are internal Instance Refresh–related MDF objects and are not intended to be modified.

Resolution

It is recommended not to modify anything for Instance Refresh related MDF Objects.

If inconsistencies are suspected, run the “MDF Object Definition to DB Sync” job in scheduled job manager.
