Detailed Description

With the latest Performance Management form experience, you can now configure a new type of section that allows users to evaluate the skills or competencies required for an employee's next job role in their career path. You can also use business rules to control the visibility of this section, displaying it only when specific conditions are met.

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 existing workflows and business rules to confirm they trigger correctly with the new behavior. • Test authentication flows (certificate/OAuth/SSO) to ensure all integrations authenticate successfully. • Test skills search, assignment, and display in affected modules (People Profile, Growth Portfolio, Career Worksheet). • Verify that skills-based recommendations and filters function correctly. • Test goal management and performance review processes end-to-end.
