Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Cause

Users are not permitted to use SAP SuccessFactors services from embargoed countries. Therefore, a user that travels to an embargoed country is prohibited from using our services while in that embargoed country. Users can access SAP SuccessFactor services after returning to a non-embargoed country.

Resolution

For the list of such countries/regions, please go through: https://www.sap.com/about/agreements/export-statements.html

Note: When users are blocked it starts a clock of 24hrs, the user should only retry to login after those 24hrs and when outside the embargoed country.
