3672663 - Update of Work Order Dates During FTE Transition - Employee Central

Symptom

  • A new hire for Regular Employment is submitted for a user whose effective hire date overlapped with the future termination date of their existing Contingent Worker employment record.
  • While completing the hire process, the system processed the new hire and created a regular employment record that overlapped with the still-active CWK profile.
  • The system did not perform a concurrent employment validation during the creation of the regular employment.

Environment

  • SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
  • SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

Reproducing the Issue

  1. In SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, create a Contingent Worker employment record for a user with a future termination date;
  2. Submit a hire with regular employment request for the same user with an effective hire date that overlaps with the future termination date of the Contingent Worker record;
  3. Complete the hire process;
  4. Observe that the new hire data is processed, and a regular employment is created, overlapping with the active Contingent Worker profile.

Cause

Pending workflows are not included in the validations for overlapping employments as of current system design.
