Symptom
"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."
- Reason and Comments fields for manual time events are missing on the workflow page.
- Reason / Comment not visible to the approver while approving the request for time event created by the employee.
Environment
- Product: SAP SuccessFactors Time Tracking
- Clock In/ Clock Out
Reproducing the Issue
- Create a new manual time event.

- Approver opens the workflow page for the manual time event and look for the Reason and Comments fields.
- Observe that the fields are not displayed.
Cause
The Reason and Comment fields in the Manual Time Event object were configured with Visibility set to Not Visible/Invisible in Configure Object Definitions, so they do not appear on the workflow page
Resolution
- Go to Configure Object Definitions.
- Open the Object Definition for Manual Time Event.
- Locate the fields Reason and Comment.
- Open Details for each field and change Visibility from Invisible/Not Visible to Editable or Read Only, as required.
- Save the configuration.
- Refresh the workflow page and verify that the fields are now visible.
