3370096 - Role Based Permission reports are showing the incorrect target population

Symptom

Role Based Permission reports are showing the target population of "everyone in self, EVERYONE" or "EVERYONE" instead of everyone in self only

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Login to SuccessFactors
  2. Go to Report Center
  3. Run an Ad hoc report
  4. From the results, the Target Population column is showing 'everyone in self, EVERYONE' or 'EVERYONE'

Resolution

  • Target Population column is showing 'everyone in self, EVERYONE' :

    This is an expected behavior as the "Target Population" means that the selected target population should be in the groups you selected.
    “everyone in SELF, EVERYONE” means that the target population should only include the users themselves, i.e. the intersection set of "everyone" and "self" is the target population in this case. Engineering team is working on improving the user experience to avoid any confusion in the future release.
  • Target Population column is showing 'EVERYONE':

    This is working as designed. For the permissions which do not require target population, there is a default target group(everyone group) stored in DB tables for each rule (or called role assignment) in the role. In this situation, the target group name will be ‘EVERYONE’.
