Description

Detailed Description

SSO Certificate Expiration For Single-Sign-On (SSO) logins into SuccessFactors, which use Identity Authentication or a third-party corporate identity provider (IDP), SuccessFactors generates a SSO signing certificate that is registered with the IDP so that the IDP can verify the tenant's identity. All customers/tenants using Identity Authentication or third-party IDP would need to update their certificate upon its expiration.

Impact Assessment

This deprecation directly affects SAP SuccessFactors implementations that rely on the functionality being retired. Customers must plan and complete migration before June 2, 2025 to avoid service disruption. should begin planning for a time when it will no longer be available for use. Failure to act before the deletion date will result in loss of functionality, requiring immediate corrective action post-deletion.

Test Recommendations
• Verify that the deprecated feature is identified in all affected environments (production, staging, sandbox). • Test alternative workflows or replacement features to ensure parity with current functionality. • Validate that all existing configurations have been migrated to the new solution before the deletion date. • Conduct regression testing on downstream processes that depend on the deprecated functionality. • Test all API integrations that use the deprecated or updated endpoints to confirm continued operation.
