Symptom
The system allows users to apply leave beyond the "Balance Cannot Fall Below" value on Time type.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central: Time Management
Reproducing the Issue
- There are two time accounts A and B, for a given Time Type for a user, with balances 0 and 5 days left respectively.
- The "Balance cannot fall below" value is set to -2.
- When the user applies for a leave, the expectation is that any Leave period beyond 7 days (-5-2=-7) should not be allowed by the system.
- However, the system still allows the user to apply for a leave period up to 9 days.
Cause
This is an Expected behavior.
Resolution
- The Balance cannot Fall below setting is checked for each Time account that exists for a given Time type.
- That would mean, the system will allow a balance up to -2 for each of the Time Accounts A & B.
- Since the system will allow users to borrow 2 days in addition from each time account, the user can take up to 9 days of leave in the example here.
