2705723 - Can multiple Trigger Tasks Job be created, or Can Trigger Tasks Job be scheduled a different time than default midnight?

Symptom

Can we create multiple 'Trigger Task Jobs' and also change the frequency, for example, from once to every 2 hours?

Or can we reschedule the  'Trigger Task Jobs' job so that it runs a different time than the default midnight ?

Environment

  • SAP Successfactors Employee Central - Time Off
  • SAP Successfactors Employee Central - Time Sheet
  • SAP Successfactors Time Tracking

Resolution

  • It is not recommended to create multiple trigger task job as it could lead to duplicate accruals.
  • There should only be 1 Trigger task job that is scheduled to run daily once.
  • When there is only 1 instance of Triggre task job scheduled, the job will automatically adjust/reschedule itself to run at 12:00 AM of the tenant preferred time zone, even if you try to adjust the execution time of this job.

NOTE: As of 1H 2023 release, it is possible to adjust the tenant preferred time zone as documented in the What's New Viewer page Updates to Tenant Preferred Time Zone.
But please take into consideration any possible impact caused by changing the tenant preferred time zone, and it is a customer decision and action to change the tenant preferred time zone.
