SAP SuccessFactors Integrations 2H 2025

As of this release we have introduced a change making the below replication objects secured by default:

• EmployeeDataReplicationElement (Employee Data Replication Status)
• EmployeeDataReplicationConfirmation
• EmployeeDataReplicationNotification
• ReplicationTargetSystem
• DataReplicationMonitorConfiguration

     

As a result of this change, users who previously had "Access to non-secured objects" permission or the "Admin access to MDF OData APIs" permission should be defaulted to have read and write permissions to the above objects under User Permissions > Data Replication Monitor section in the relevant role in Manage Permission Roles.

• During the 2H Preview release we observed that some customers did not have these permissions granted automatically as part of the release & according to the above logic
   
• DRM engineering team have advised that this should be addressed for the 2H Production release & the permissions should be granted automatically users who previously had "Access to non-secured objects" permission or the "Admin access to MDF OData APIs"
   
    
• Important note: before the release, users with the permissions "Access to non-secured objects" or "Admin access to MDF OData APIs" already had access to the replication objects mentioned above. After the release, these users will receive the new specific permissions for replication objects under User Permissions > Data Replication Monitor. This does not mean they have gained additional access - they already had it through the admin permissions mentioned previously (this change would also not provide them access to the Data Replication Monitor tool).
      
  The access to the Data Replication Monitor tool is controlled via Manage Integration Tools > Access to Data Replication Monitor
  
  
  

 

WORKAROUND:

If you face any of the above symptoms (or similar) following the 2H Production release (that were not occurring before the release) 

Please try manually adding the View / Edit permissions under User Permissions > Data Replication Monitor section in the relevant role in Manage Permission Roles.

Granting these permissions has addressed all reported situations occurring in the Data Replication Monitor as a result of this change.
