Symptom
An alert rule was configured to trigger a notification when a user applies for leave with a Pending status. However, instead of receiving a single notification, the system is sending two notifications to the CC user.
Environment
- SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central – Time Management
Reproducing the Issue
-
Navigate to Administer Time UI → Create Absence
-
Enter the required details
-
Click Submit
-
The CC user receives two notifications instead of one
Cause
-
This issue occurs due to a configuration issue in the alert rule logic.
Resolution
- To ensure only one alert notification is triggered, update the alert rule with the following conditions:
IF Employee Time.Approval Status is equal to Pending
AND
IF Employee Time.Workflow Request not equal to -1
Then
Execute Trigger Employee Time Event()
- These conditions will prevent duplicate notifications and ensure the alert is only triggered during valid scenarios.
