Symptom
When trying to simulate balances for a future date, you can see that the simulation stopped working correctly after some years ahead.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central (EC) - All Versions
Reproducing the Issue
- Select one employee;
- Go to Manage Time off (or administer time of you are on PP3);
- On "Effective ass of", change the year for a future year (like in this example 2026);
- See that the simulation worked for the first years and then stoped working;
Cause
Expect behavior.
Due to performance reasons we restrict endless calculation.
Resolution
The configuration field maximumSimulationHorizonInMonths is invisible per default on TimeAccountType. You can make it editable to enter a bigger number.
To do so go to:
- Configure object definitions>select object definitions>select time account type;
- Select take action>make correction;
- Search for the field maximumSimulationHorizonInMonths and make it editable;
- After this you can change it manually making this horizont bigger.
