Detailed Description
The change-reason and change-reason-external fields in the Job Information HRIS entity will reach End of Maintenance on May 15, 2025 and will be Deleted on May 15, 2026. End of Development was reached on May 16, 2025; End of Maintenance was reached on May 16, 2025; the feature will be permanently deleted on May 15, 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. Just as we add new fields for new features when required, we also ensure that we remove fields that no longer serve their purpose well enough, for example, if a feature is deprecated or replaced.
Impact Assessment
SuccessFactors implementations that use this functionality must take action before the deletion date to avoid business disruption. End of Maintenance was May 16, 2025, meaning SAP no longer provides bug fixes or patches. The feature will be permanently removed on May 15, 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.
