Detailed Description

Users now receive a notification card in Microsoft Teams when an absence is updated, rejected, or deleted in the SAP SuccessFactors system. The notification card displays key absence details, such as the period, event type, duration, time, and status. They are sent when there are changes to the absences, provided that the corresponding feature switch is enabled in Admin Center. When the Sync Absences to Calendar feature switch is enabled in Admin Center, the card includes an Update Calendar option that allows users to keep their Microsoft Teams and Outlook calendars up to date.

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 all API integrations using the updated or deprecated endpoints to confirm continued operation. • Validate authentication mechanisms (OAuth, certificates) for API connections after the change. • Test time-off accrual calculations and leave requests before and after the change. • Verify absence balances and entitlements are correctly displayed to employees and managers. • Test role-based permissions for affected roles to ensure correct data access after the change.
