3448474 - SAP SuccessFactors Employee Time Sheet in "To be Approved" status Deleted by System

• Employee Time Sheet has been submitted for approval, then it's noticed that system deleted original "To be Approved" timesheet and generated a new one with empty "Replaces" field. 
• Employee Time Sheet workflow is triggered again by v4admin.

Currently it is expected system behavior.

When recalculation is triggered for a timesheet in "To be Approved" status, system will delete the original timesheet and generate a new one.
The new timesheet will be auto-submitted by system.
If Employee Time Sheet object workflow can be triggered by v4admin as well, then the new time sheet will be in "To be Approved" status. 
If timesheet workflow is not triggerred by v4admin, then the new time sheet will be in "Approved" stauts. 

For example: 

1. Submit Employee Time Sheet for approval, timesheet Approval Status became "To be Approved". Copy Employee Time Sheet external code ABC by clicking Trace button on timesheet UI.
2. Recalculation is triggered for the pending approval timesheet period, such as creating a new absence or canceling an existing absence. Message "The displayed data might not be fully up-to-date because a recalculation is pending for the time sheet." is displayed in timesheet UI.
3. After recalculation is completed successfully, above message will disappear. Then, click Trace button and check timesheet External code again, a new external code XYZ is generated by system.
4. Search for Employee Time Sheet object with original external code ABC, object cannot be found in the database. Search Employee Time Sheet object with new external code XYZ, field "Replaces" is empty. 

Additionally, "Replaces" and "Replaced By" field are only set when recalculation happened to Approved timesheet.
