Symptom
Employee B has two employment records:
- B1 – Main Employment (Manager: A)
- B2 – Concurrent Employment (Manager: A)
Employee C directly reports to B2 (Concurrent Employment).
When Manager A accesses the Team Absence Calendar, the following behavior is observed:
- ✅ B1 is visible under the "My Reporting Hierarchy" section
- ❌ C is not visible under the "My Reporting Hierarchy" section
Question:
Is it possible to allow Manager A to view Employee C’s absence data in the Team Absence Calendar?
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
Reproducing the Issue
- Create a scenario where employee B has two employments (main and concurrent) with the same manager (user A).
- Assign employee C to report to B’s concurrent employment.
- As user A, open the Team Absence Calendar.
- Observe that C is not visible under the "My Reporting Hierarchy" section.
Cause
The Team Absence Calendar displays absences only for employees who report through the main employment reporting line. Employees reporting via a concurrent employment are not included in the manager’s team view.
Resolution
In Team Absence Calendar, A can search for people: C, then A is able to view C's data.
Permission required for A:
1. General User Permissions > Company Info Access > User Search (†=Target needs to be defined )
2. Time Management User Permissions > Enable Search Option in Team Absence Calendar
3. Time Management User Permissions >Access Team Absence Calendar
