3253281 - Unable to create a work schedule day model with the same start time and end time

Symptom

A customer wants to create a work schedule day model with start time and end time as same, e.g: 07:00 AM to 07:00 AM next day. But the system throws an error 'One of the end times is the same as the corresponding start time. Please correct this.'

Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.

Environment

  • SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central : Time Off

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Navigate to  Manage Data -> Create New -> Work Schedule Day Model
  2. Set the field 'Cross Midnight Allowed' to Yes
  3. Create a segment with start time as 07:00 AM and end time as 07:00 AM 
  4. System throws an error 'One of the end times is the same as the corresponding start time. Please correct this.'

Resolution

  • This is currently the standard system behavior
  • Having a segment from 07:00 AM to 07: AM (next day) can lead to collision issues, hence such a configuration is restricted
  • As a work-around, the end time can be set to 06:59 AM.
