Symptom
- You have configured the Leave purchase setup as per the guide.
- However, when a user is trying to make a purchase request, it gets saved automatically despite configuring the workflow.
- The expectation is to trigger the Workflow that has been configured on the Time Account Purchase Profile.
Environment
- SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite
- SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
Reproducing the Issue
- Configure a workflow on the Time account purchase profile object
- Trigger a purchase leave request and notice that no workflow is triggered upon submitting it
Cause
This is occuring due to the Admin access to MDF OData API permission granted to the logged in user
Resolution
- If the user requesting the purchase leave has the Admin access to MDF OData API permission, no workflow is triggered except when the purchase leave request is created from the Manage Data UI.
- From Manage Data, the workflow will always be triggered, independent of the Admin access to MDF OData API permission.
