Symptom
- Exclude granted permission to self function not working as expected.
- Users with multiple assignments are granted permissions despite the exclusion rule.
- User is able to view specific area, even though they have the exclude permission granted.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
Reproducing the Issue
- Proxy as the affected user.
- Navigate to Area in question
- Notice that the area is visible and accessible by the user despite the exclusion rule.
Cause
Expected Behavior
Resolution
- The feature "Exclude granted users from having the same access to themselves" only works for specific employment. If a person has multiple employments, it will only exclude the employment set as access groups/users in the permission roles.
- In the next release (b2511), the "Exclude By Person" option will be supported. When enabled, all employments of a person (e.g., GA/CE) will be excluded from the access groups/users for permission roles.
- Refer to the SAP SuccessFactors What's New for updates on the Release.
