Symptom
The job type “Sync Alumni Data” is not found in Provisioning → Manage Scheduled Jobs.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding
Cause
This behavior is expected.
The “Sync Alumni Data” (Alumni Maintenance Job) is not configured or managed from Provisioning.
Instead, the job is created and maintained in:
- Admin Center → Scheduled Job Manager → Job Scheduler
- Entries visible in Provisioning → Monitor Jobs represent backend execution logs only and do not indicate job configuration availability in Provisioning.
Resolution
To configure and execute the Alumni Maintenance Job:
- Navigate to:
Admin Center → Scheduled Job Manager → Job Scheduler - Create a new job or locate an existing one with:
Job Type: Sync Alumni Data - Provide the required job parameters (e.g., Convert Terminated User to Alumni, Update Access Period, etc.)
- Submit the job request
- Once created:
- The job will appear in the Job Scheduler list
- Use “Run It Now” to execute the job manually, if required
- Monitor job execution status within Job Scheduler
- Note: Any entries in Provisioning are execution logs only
