Last updated on JANUARY 26, 2024

Applies to:

PeopleSoft Enterprise FIN General Ledger - Version 9.2 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

On : 9.2 version, PT8.55.14,  URL/Site Issues

After applying the PT8.55.14 minor update, ALL direct link URLs in Email notifications generated throughout the application are truncated when used, and the <UserID> will go to a Search Page rather than to the specific item that needs to be worked. 

As an example, for HCM 9.2 Candidate Gateway, clicking on a direct link to a specific job posting URL goes instead to the Job Search Page.

This will happens throughout the HCM application, and includes products such as: Recruiting Solutions, Absence Management, Workflow, Candidate Gateway, On-boarding.  The situation also occurs with FSCM Approval emails as well.

 

EXAMPLE

Direct link:


 7)   Copy the URL and open different browser, e.g. IE11, paste the external URL.

Note the URL is truncated. Web Profile is not configured with bypass Login ID, so there is a login Prompt. Login as User/PW. Goes to the Job Search page.
Result: the URL is truncated and goes to the Job Search page.
