3313773 - How to simulate accruals for a single user using Time Account Process Simulator

Symptom

How to simulate accruals for a single user?

Environment

  • SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central - Time Management

Resolution

The "Time Account Process Simulator" tool can be used to verify the eligible accrual for a user prior to posting.

Required Permissions:

  • For Accessing the time account accrual simulator UI - Manage Time> 'Access Time Account Process Simulator' permission.
  • For Searching an employee - General User Permissions > 'User Search' permission

Procedure for simulating accruals:

  1. Search for the tool "Time Account Process Simulator" in the tool search
  2. Search for the specific user in the Employee field
  3. With the Date Picker, choose a date based on the Time Account Type frequency or a specific date as indicated by the use-case scenario
  4. Select the Time Account Type
  5. Turn on the 'Recalculation' toggle if you want to simulate accruals based on the most recent data change for a user who already has an accrual posted
  6. To simulate accruals for a terminated user, enable the 'Include inactive users in search' toggle
  7. Click on Run Simulation.

The expand/collapse option allows us to see additional details about each of the stated factors, such as the calculation scenario, time account type, accrual period, and so on.

The rule trace logs can be used to validate the rule execution and debug any errors that arise during the simulation run. Refer our KBA 2257064 - Employee Central - Business Rule Execution Log
