Symptom
You are expecting the "End date" in your SFAPI CompoundEmployee response, but you could not find / it is not being returned as API response.
Environment
- SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite
- Compound Employee
Reproducing the Issue
Run your SFAPI CE delta query and observe that the XML tag <end_date> is not found in some nodes.
Cause
Since period-based delta transmission is designed for consumers that are not able to handle effective-dated entities and future changes, it ignores end dates of time slices that are outside of the given period.
Resolution
The description of this behavior can be found on the guide section End Date Handling
Since period-based delta transmission is designed for consumers that aren’t able to handle effective-dated entities and future changes, it ignores end dates of time slices that are outside of the given period.
No end dates for that are outside of the given period are contained in the CompoundEmployee API response. Only if a time slice of an effective-dated object ends before or within the period, the end date is also part of the response.
