3631537 - Time Accounts and Accruals Not Automatically Created for Contingent Workers - SAP SuccessFactors Time Off

Symptom

  • Time accounts and accruals for the current period are not automatically created for contingent workers after assigning a time profile. 
  • Future time accounts for a subsequent year (e.g., 2026) are automatically created instead of the current year (2025) time accounts when assigning a time profile to a contingent worker. 

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Navigate to Manage Data and select Time Account Type.  
  2. Verify that "Account Creation Automation" is set to "Automatic Account Creation".  
  3. Confirm that "Accrual Creation Automation" is set to "Automatic Accrual Creation".  
  4. Assign the Time Profile to the contingent worker's profile.  
  5. Open Administer Time for the contingent worker.  
  6. Observe that the time account and accruals are created automatically for a future period instead of the current period.  

Cause

This is a known issue.

Resolution

  • The issue only occurs when assigning/changing the time profile after hire. If the time profile is assigned during the hire process, this issue does not occur.
