Symptom

Time Sheet access will be totally blocked when

  • View permission to EmployeeTimeSheetEntry.EmployeeTimeSheetEntry or EmployeeTimeSheet.Allowance or EmployeeTimeSheet.TimeValuationResult in Time Management Object Permissions is not given for weekly period time sheets.
  • View permission to EmployeeTimeSheetEntry.EmployeeTimeSheetEntry or EmployeeTimeSheet.Allowance or EmployeeTimeSheet.TimeValuationResult or Time Recording or Allowance Recording in Time Management Object Permissions is not given for monthly period time sheets.

even though you have been given the view permission to EmployeeTimeSheet object.

There will be error message "You are not authorised to access time sheet data or the user does not exist." raised on the time sheet UI under either of above condition.

Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.  

Environment

  • SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central - Time Sheet
  • SAP SuccessFactors Time Tracking
