Detailed Description

You can now allow users to manage learning items in the latest Development Goals even when they have only read access to the development goal fields. A new switch, Allow users to manage learning without write permission for development goals , is available in the Career Development Planning Feature Settings admin tool. When enabled, users with read access to development goals and permission to manage learning can add learning from SAP SuccessFactors Learning, or create and link custom learning to development goals.

Impact Assessment

This change affects SAP SuccessFactors implementations by introducing updated behavior or new capabilities. Implementation teams should review the change and assess whether configuration adjustments, user training, or regression testing are required. The impact is expected to be minimal and may not require any action.

Test Recommendations
• Test Learning module access and course enrollment after the change. • Test goal management and performance review processes end-to-end. • Verify continuous feedback and calibration sessions are accessible and functional. • Test role-based permissions for affected roles to ensure correct data access after the change. • Validate that no unintended data exposure occurs with the new permission settings.
