Validation Functionality in CodeBot for SAP SuccessFactors

The Validation feature in CodeBot helps ensure that the data in your workbook matches the data in the instance. It’s a quick and efficient way to verify that your workbook is up to date.


Steps to Perform Validation:


  1. Open the Workbook


  • Open a generated workbook for any required module (e.g., EC). Here, we will validate the MDF objects from the workbook to the instance.



  • Set the processing status to Pending for the items you want to validate. The bot will then focus on those specific items.



  • Close the workbook



  1. Start Validation in CodeBot


  • In CodeBot, click the hamburger menu and select Start Validation.

 

 

  • Login using SSO (if enabled). If not, enter your SuccessFactors password.
  • Provide execution notes.
  • Select the MDF Objects checkbox.
  • Click Confirm & Start to initiate the process.

 


 

3. Monitor the Execution


  • The iteration is processing, click the “i” icon to track execution progress.

 


  • Refresh the logs to view updated information.


 

  • Once the status changes to complete, review the logs to ensure there are no errors.



4. Review Results


  • Reopen the workbook.
  • Red highlights indicate differences between the workbook and the instance.
  • Green highlights confirm matching data across both.
