3406308 - The behavior of SSO Login from third-party integration platforms to Successfactors Primary Employement, Concurrent Employment, and Global Assignment (GA)

Symptom

The login behavior of using Single Sign-On (SSO) from third-party integration platforms to Successfactors Primary Employment, Concurrent Employment, and Global Assignment (GA)

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM suite

Resolution

The login behavior for Global Assignment (GA) is:
When user has an active Global Assignment, no matter uses which account name to login, the system will consistently redirect the user to GA employment, this behavior persists until the user returns from GA employment (GA ended).

The login behavior for Concurrent Employment (CE) is:

If CE employment is the primary assignment and active, the user will be redirected to CE employment upon login.
If CE employment is not the primary assignment and active, as long as the CE account has login permission, system will allow the CE account log in to the system.

Admins can check which username is assigned as primary assignment from "Manage Login Accounts" page.

This is the expected working behavior as per current design. Customer can switch between employments after login.
