Detailed Description

Provider (IdP) Direct Integration with SAP SuccessFactors Basic Authentication and third-party direct integration with SAP SuccessFactors HCM suite will reach end of maintenance and support on June 2, 2025 and be deleted on November 13, 2026. End of Development was reached on May 16, 2025; End of Maintenance was reached on June 2, 2025; the feature will be permanently deleted on November 13, 2026. You can continue to use the software, but you should begin planning for a time when it will no longer be available for use. Why we're deprecating third-party direct integration to SAP SuccessFactors HCM suite: Use of a third-party corporate IdP directly integrated with SAP SuccessFactors HCM suite will be affected by the deprecation of third-party cookies by major browsers, and Identity Authentication and SAP SuccessFactors HCM suite have migrated to a common super domain to avoid this issue.

Impact Assessment

SuccessFactors implementations that use this functionality must take action before the deletion date to avoid business disruption. End of Maintenance was June 2, 2025, meaning SAP no longer provides bug fixes or patches. The feature will be permanently removed on November 13, 2026, after which it will be completely unavailable in production. SAP recommends migrating to method for your business scenario. Implementation teams must audit current usage, communicate with stakeholders, complete the migration to the replacement solution, and test all affected business processes before the deletion date.

Test Recommendations
• Verify that the deprecated/deleted feature is no longer accessible in the test environment after the effective date. • Confirm that all business processes previously using this feature have been migrated to the replacement solution. • Run end-to-end process tests for the scenarios that previously relied on this feature to confirm continuity. • Validate that no error messages, broken links, or missing UI elements appear where the feature previously existed. • Confirm that historical data and audit logs remain accessible and intact after the feature is removed. • Test integration endpoints and API calls for correct data exchange, authentication, and error handling. • Test on multiple iOS and Android devices across different OS versions and screen sizes.
