3115918 - Rule Context Not Applying to Direct Reports

The rule context setting is not being respected.

• When the rule context is set to 'No', the rule still triggers.
• The behavior is observed for direct reports, even though the expectation is that the rule should not apply in this case.

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

This is the system’s expected behavior.

The Rule Context only applies to the user who is directly undergoing the change. For example:

• If you configure the Rule Context to exclude Termination UI, the rule will not trigger when the manager is terminated.
• However, updates that occur for the manager's direct reports (such as changes triggered by Termination, Position Change, or Global Mobility) will not follow this context restriction and may still trigger the rule.

In case this functionality is important to your business, we encourage you to submit an enhancement request so it can be considered for future development cycles.
