3499372 - Accruals Not Automatically Generated for Future-Dated Time Profile Changes

Symptom

We have updated the user job information with the new time profile change effective 01/Jan/2025 and observed that the system has generated only the Time Accounts and accrual generation is still pending.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central – Time Management

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Navigate to User Job Information>Insert New Record
  2. Set the Effective Date as 01/01/2025
  3. Change the Time Profile
  4. Save the changes
  5. Go to Administer Time UI>Time Account
  6. Select Date as 01/01/2025
  7. We can notice only Time Accounts are generated.
  8. Accrual posting is missing

Cause

Working As Designed

Resolution

  • When a future-dated time profile change occurs, the system will generate Time Accounts exclusively.
  • Accruals will only be generated on the posting date during the Accrual Calendar run.
  • The system will only post accruals automatically if the account validity and the accrual posting date both fall within the current period.

Workaround:  

  • To allow users to apply for leave in the future, such as starting from January 1, 2025, before accrual posting, you can enable "Simulate Accruals" by setting it to Yes under Time Account Type.
  • Moreover, if you require accruals to be generated before the actual accruable start date, you can adjust the "Accrual Creation Offset (Days)" setting within the Time Account Type configuration.
