Environment

  • SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
  • SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

Go to employee's profile -> Take Action->Termination/Separation-> effective last date 31 st jan 2017 -> try to capture the log for termination rule using Rule Trace/ Business execution log.

In the rule execution result you can see correct value getting calculated however on the termination incorrect value shows.

Cause

There can be two root causes for this.

1. The current year's time account has a manual adjustment balance which has not been utilized. This will add up to the termination rule proration result.

In the example scenario

Employee A - Terminated (Last data 31 Jan 2017 ) - sick / hospitalization leave(paid ) entitlement shows 7, but according to the rule trace it should have been 1 leave.

6 was the balance amount from a manual adjustment and no accrual was posted in his current time account. When we are terminating him in Jan 2017 as per the termination rule balance should prorate to 1 but the amount shows 6+1 = 7.

2. The old year's time account is not closed and has a remaining balance. This will also add up to the termination rule proration result.

In the example scenario

Employee A - Terminated (Last data 31 Jan 2017 ) - sick / hospitalization leave(paid ) entitlement shows 6, but according to the rule it should have been 1 leave.

5 was the balance amount from his old time account. When we are terminating him in Jan 2017 as per the termination rule balance should prorate to 1 but the amount shows 5+1 = 6.

Resolution

The termination rule proration will consider the old time account balance and manual adjustment balance in current time account along with result of termination rule.

To avoid adding up old time account's balance, you can either close the old time account by changing status of field closed = Yes manually of via import.

Or you can use Period end processing rule to carry forward balance from old time account to new time account(new account should be already created) and close the old time account according to your business requirement.
