3543200 - Permission roles changed after the 2H2024 release

Symptom

  • After the release, history shows changes in several roles in Manage Permission Roles, although no changes were made by users
  • Roles with Benefits-related permissions were changed in 2H24 release

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Navigate to the Admin Center > Manage Permission Roles
  2. Review the 'Change History' for roles
  3. See there are changes made on Oct 14 in Preview tenants and Nov 16 for Production tenants, although no changes were performed by users

Cause

This is caused by a redesign of Benefits Permissions to introduce a separate user permissions category.

Resolution

This change was triggered by a release enhancement that created a separate user permission category for Benefits permissions as per Help Portal Redesign of Benefits Permissions to Introduce a Separate User Permissions Category | SAP Help Portal.

Note that this enhancement did not cause any change in the role itself, but rather rearranged permission categories, that was caught by Audit Trail for the roles.
