3600463 - Is it possible to consider absence approval status in time valuation ?

Symptom

As of 1H 2025, it is possible to consider approval status of Single Record Approval as documented in WNV .

Does this also support approval status of absences ? Is it possible to consider approval status of time off requests too ?

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Time Tracking 

Resolution

It currently does not yet support the consideration or filtering of absence approval status by time valuation. 

We understand there may be some expectation to have such function. You are welcome to vote on Time valuations to read Employee Time status, and the more votes we have on this influence request, the higher possibility of being developed. 

And currently, as a workaround, you can consider blocking the submission of the time sheet if there is any pending approval absence as documented in 3289220 - How to stop the user from submitting timesheet if the time sheet has a time off pending for approval 
In this way, no time valuation results considering unapproved absences will be sent to Payroll system if you are using the standard BIB or PTP replication to ERP, S/4HANA onPrem, S/4HANA PCE or ECP systems. More details about standard replication can be found in What Is My Integration Use Case and Which Documents Should I Read to Implement It?
