Symptom
The authentication for Preview (Pre-Production) Environment of Workforce Analytics on SQL has been enhanced as of 2205 release to be simplified.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Workforce Analytics
Resolution
You can now do unified login to Workforce Analytics on SQL Preview (Pre-Production) Environment from Successfactors Login.
After login to Successfactors production application, you need to use this new URL in a separate tab : https://analyticsXXX.com/Preview/Login.aspx?sfCompanyId=SFCompanyID.
Please replace analyticsXXX with your DC id and add SFCompanyID in the end. For example if you are in DC10, your existing URL is https://analytics10preview.sapsf.com/Preview/Login.aspx and your Successfactors company id ANABC
Then the your new URL would be https://analytics10preview.sapsf.com/Preview/Login.aspx?sfCompanyId=ANAABC
To review configuration of this enhancement, please contact your professional services representative.
Impact to WFA Preview Instances (applies only to customers on WFA on SQL)
The “WFA preview site” is where customers of WFA on MS SQL Server preview the next monthly cube after the monthly refresh has been completed. Typically, only a handful of expert users access WFA preview site once a month to perform this task.
Today, these expert users typically access the WFA preview site via a direct URL (direct login). When accessing the URL, users are presented with a screen where they enter a WFA-specific username and password.
In the future, users should use a two-step process to leverage the integrated login:
- First, users will have to log into SAP SuccessFactors HCM.
- Once they are authenticated, they navigate to the WFA preview site. This can be done by opening another tab and go to the WFA preview site. Since the browser has already authenticated their session, they will not be presented with a login screen.
Please note that WFA Preview site users must have the permission “Pre-production Environment Access for Workforce Analytics on SQL” to access the environment. Refer this BLOG: Workforce Analytics Direct Login to Integrated Log... - SAP Community Groups
