Symptom
-
When using the User Needs Mgmt tool to assign an item, on Step 5 the Required date is set one day in past ( yesterday ) than current date.
-
Unless required date is adjusted error displays:
The Required Date cannot be earlier than the assignment date
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Learning Management System (LMS)
Reproducing the Issue
Use any item with retraining set on item level to use as assignment in User Needs Mgmt and note on Step 5 the Required date is populated with yesterday's date.
Cause
This is due to a Database override of the timezone on a multi-timezone tenant to a zone earlier than the current. (Support can reference internal memo to determine apllicability if unknown by customer).
Resolution
-
This is targeted to be fixed in 1811 as investigated by LRN-45417
-
Workaround is to edit the required date to current date or future before selecting Run Now or Schedule in User Needs Mgmt tool.
