Symptom
Deprecation of Pay Scale Group API and Pay Scale MDF Objects FAQs 2H 2024 release.
Environment
SAP Success Factors Employee Central 2411
Cause
Initial update as per WNV: Deprecation of Pay Scale Group API | SAP Help Portal.
Resolution
1. Does the Deprecation of Pay Scale Group API imply the deletion of the payScaleGroup object?
No, we are not deprecating the object. Previously, Pay Scale Group was non-effective dated however, going forward, this entity exists but as an effective dated entity.
2. Is the API empjob> payScaleGroup API scheduled for deletion in November 2026?
The API for job info exists, but the API for the object itself with non-effective date will get deleted. In other words, the Object API with effective start date will replace the object API with non-effective start date which exists today.
3. Will the Pay Scale Group object be replaced by the "Compensation Structure" MDF object?
Compensation Structure is an entirely a new feature. For the best use of this new feature, Pay Scale Group object needs to be effective dated.
The current Pay Scale Group API, which does not have effective date, will be deprecated and what is going to be available is the API which supports effective date.
4. If we use MDF objects in our Business Configuration instead of the picklist, will any changes be necessary?
Yes, changes are required only if MDF objects that are referenced in business configuration.
