JPB - Certification

The Certification worksheet in the Job Profile Builder Workbook is used to define, process, and manage all certifications associated with specific job profiles within SAP SuccessFactors. It ensures that the system correctly maps, activates, and updates certification data.

This guide outlines the step-by-step process for Certification updates using a pre-generated workbook in the Job Profile Builder module, and automating the changes using CodeBot for SAP SuccessFactors.

1. Login to CodeBot. On the Dashboard locate & click on the Job Profile Builder module tile.

2. Enter into your workspace & open the JPB workbook to the Certification tab.

• Column B: Set the Processing Status to pending.
• Column C: Enter a new certification.
• Column D: Provide a Description.
• Column E: Set the status to either Active or Inactive according to the requirement.
• Column F: GUID is a unique identifier assigned to each certification record in SuccessFactors. This is read-only and used for backend referencing. The GUID will be autogenerated once the execution is successfully completed.

• Close the workbook.

3. Back in CodeBot, click on the hamburger menu and select Start Configuration.

4. If the SSO is implemented, Login using SSO, enter Execution Notes, check the Certification checkbox, and click on Confirm and Start to begin the process.

5. As the status changes to processing you can track the progress of the execution. To monitor the progress please refer to the article attached below:

6. Reopen the JPB workbook and navigate to the Certification tab.

• Successfully updated information will be highlighted in green.
• The GUID is generated by the system.
• The Processing status has changed from pending to processed.

7. Log in to your SAP SuccessFactors instance:

• Navigate to: Admin Center → Manage Job Profile Content.
• Select Certification from the dropdown.
• Review the list to verify that your updates have been applied correctly.

Expected Outcome

• The new certification is successfully updated and activated in the Job Profile Builder.
• Green highlights in the workbook confirm successful processing.
• The updated Certification appear in the SAP SuccessFactors instance.

Note: If anything doesn’t appear as expected, check CodeBot execution logs and send us the Tracking Request ID via the chat box in the lower right-hand corner.

Thank you!
