3344341 - 'Send Back' button for Time Off workflows

You would like to know if it is possible to add the Send Back button for Time Off workflows, the same way you can for person related changes in Employee Central and, if so, how to enable it.

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

• SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
• SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Usually, when you want to add the Sent Back button, you have to edit the 'Pending Data' field on the object to 'Yes'.

However, if you try to change edit this field in the 'Employee Time' object, the error message 'You can’t make changes to the Pending Data field because it is fixed to the SAP SuccessFactors delivered object definition EmployeeTime.' is thrown.

Setting the Pending Data option to 'Yes' isn’t supported and causes inconsistencies in your data.

Inflight changes are not supported. For more information, access the Implementation Guide Configuring Workflows for Absence Recording.
