Subject Person Setting in HR Case

Sruthi17

I need help with setting the Subject Person on an HR Case.

We have a parent HR case and two HR tasks created under it.

Task 1

  • Type: HR Service (Service: ABC)

  • When the fulfiller submits the HR Service form, the new HR Case correctly takes the Subject Person from the parent case.

Task 2

  • Type: HR Service (Service: XYZ)

  • When the fulfiller submits the form, the new HR Case incorrectly sets the Subject Person to the fulfiller instead of the parent case’s Subject Person.

Both tasks have the same setup, but the behavior is different.
I’m not sure what configuration is missing for Task 2.

Request your support in identifying and fixing this.

@Sruthi17 

any business rule or flow is updating the Subject person later on?

Did you check in history calendar what's the value of Subject Person when record was created?

Thanks @Ankur Bawiskar 

You are correct. There is a Business rule that populates the Subject person from the parent case for specific HR services.

 

But can I ask, isn't there an OOTB option in the HR service / HR template to configure this?

@Sruthi17 

Glad to know that my approach of finding BR helped.

nope, I couldn't see such option in that template screenshot you shared.

So it should be handled via BR
