Symptom
- Future-dated Job Information records are deleted after termination, but future-dated position changes that were synced from Job Information remain in Position Management.
- Future-dated Job Information records created after a termination action has already been saved are not removed by the automated deletion feature.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
Reproducing the Issue
- Create future-dated Job Information changes.
- Job Information to Position sync will create corresponding future-dated in Position.
- Terminate the employment with an effective date before the future-dated Job Information record.
- Observe that the future-dated Job Information record is deleted, while the corresponding future-dated Position changes remain.
- Create a new future-dated Job (or Compensation) record after the termination exists and observe that it is not auto-deleted.
Cause
- By design, the “Automated Deletion of Future-Dated Records After Termination” feature only deletes future-dated Job Information records; it does not delete Position records or position changes created by Job Info to Position sync.
- The automated deletion is initiated when the termination is recorded. Future-dated Job/Comp records created after the termination exists are not considered for automated deletion.
Resolution
- This is expected behavior: automated deletion after termination does not remove Position records or position changes created via Job Info to Position sync in Position itself.
- If position data should not persist, remove or adjust the future-dated Position records manually according to business requirements.
- For Job/Comp auto-deletion, ensure the relevant event reason has “Delete Future-Dated Records After Termination” set to Yes.
- If you want future-dated Job/Comp records to be removed automatically, create those records before recording the termination so they are in scope for automated deletion.
- When making data changes on a terminated employment, be aware the system will allow saving but will not auto-delete newly added future-dated Job/Comp records.
