2618848 - Change Audit Data Loss When the Enable Change Audit Log Job Is Scheduled Recursively

Symptom

Captured Change Audit data is no longer available after the Enable Change Audit Log Job is configured to run on a recurring basis.

 
 

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Cause

The previously captured Change Audit data is no longer available after the Enable Change Audit Log Job has been configured to run on a recurring basis.

Resolution

To prevent potential loss of Change Audit data:

  • Do not schedule the Enable Change Audit Log Job as a recurring job.
  • The job should only be executed when required to enable the Change Audit Log functionality.
  • If the job has already been configured with a recurring schedule, review the configuration and remove the recurring schedule.
  • Customers should be advised to avoid repeatedly executing the job, as this may impact previously captured Change Audit data.

Note: "Enable Change Audit Log Job" should never be scheduled to run on a recurring basis, as doing so may lead to loss of previously captured Change Audit data.
