SuccessFactors HR

SuccessFactors HR is an integrated human-resources platform. It offers users tools for onboarding, social business, and collaboration along with tools for learning management, performance management, recruiting, applicant tracking, succession planning, talent management, and HR analytics. It is also cloud-based.

Supervisor configuration parameters

To configure the connector, following parameters are required:

  • Connector Name
  • Username (Format: <userId (not the value for username) of the SuccessFactors service account>@<company_id>)
  • Password (needed till v.5.0)
  • SuccessFactors HR instance URL (https://apps.support.sap.com/sap/support/knowledge/public/en/2215682).

  • Private key (v.6.0 onwards)

  • Client Id (v.6.0 onwards)

  • Custom Object Types (v9.0 onwards)

  • Instance DateTime Offset (refer Configuring additional datetime offset in connectors for more details)

  • Minimal Attributes (in v1.0 and v2.0)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, only the minimal set of attributes for all the objects will be queried from the SuccessFactors HR system.

  • Fetch Effective Dated Records Only (v3.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, only the effective dated employees will be queried from the SuccessFactorsHR system.

  • Activate Custom Attributes With Full Name (v5.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, then custom attributes would be prefixed with the full name of the navigational attributes.

  • Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints (v5.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, the employees would be separated into two endpoints - the effective dated and future dated.

  • Retry Server Call

    IMPORTANT:

    • Retry Server Call is used to make a retry request to the SuccessFactorsHR system in-case of failures related with an unreachable instance at a given point in time.

    • By default the value is set to false. The customer can enable it in-case such failures are encountered.

  • loginMethod (v9.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, the employees would have loginMethod attribute in the response.

  • Use base 64 encoded id in synchronization (on v10.1)

    NOTE: The default value is false. Set this to true if the id contains special characters and needs the base 64 encoding to support the synchronization.

Connector limitations

  • DELETE operation is supported only by the PerEmails endpoint.

  • Except for PerEmails and PerPhones, CREATE operation is also not supported by any other endpoints.

  • UPDATE operation is supported by two endpoints on selected attributes as listed below:

    • Employees - username, cellPhone, businessPhone, and email

    • PerEmails - emailAddress, emailType.

    • PerPhones - phoneNumber, phoneType, areaCode, countryCode, and isPrimary.

  • If there are multiple records with same 'startDate' coming in at a later point, then it would not be handled since 'startDate' doesn't have a time stamp.

  • 'startDate' is in servertime. Hence, it can't be converted into UTC as the timezone information of the SAP server is unavailable.

  • PerPhones and PerEmails endpoints do not support filters on "id" attribute of SCIM response.

  • The connector supports filter conditions for all the objects.

  • The connector supports filter condition in all the Versions.

  • Supports only AND, OR, and NOT logical operators.

  • Supports only parenthesis () for grouping the condition.

  • The connector supports only single quotes (‘) with filter condition value (ex: phoneType co '10101')

  • Filter conditions should be applied on those attributes that can be filtered. For more information, refer List of Attributes for Filter Condition.

  • Complex attributes are not supported in the filter condition (example: name, email). Only sub-attributes are supported. (email.value, name.familyName)

  • Filter condition should follow the syntax

    For example: 

    1. <attribute_name><space><operator><space>'<string_value or date_value>'

    2.<attribute_name><space><operators><space><int_value or bool_value>

  • Filter condition values should NOT have single quotes or percentage with the filter condition value example: (userName co 'O'Malley') or (userName co 'O%Malley%')

  • Filter condition is NOT supported by the connector for Custom attributes.

  • Supports the following operators to filter the values with example should apply in OneIM.

    S.No Operators OneIM System filters OneIM Select Objects
    1 eq → equal to phoneType eq '00000' phoneType = '00000'
    2 ne → not equal to phoneType ne '00000' phoneType <> '00000'
    3 co → contains phoneType co '00000' phoneType like '%00000%'
    4 sw → starts with phoneType sw '00000' phoneType like '00000%'
    5 ew → ends with phoneType ew '00000' phoneType like '%00000'
    6 gt → greater than phoneType gt 100 phoneType > 100
    7 lt → less than phoneType lt 100 phoneType < 100
    8 ge → greater than or equal to phoneType ge 500 phoneType >= 500
    9 le → less than or equal to phoneType le 500 phoneType <= 500

Some of the example filter conditions (Should be applied at OneIM):

  • phoneType co '1'

  • phoneType eq '00000'

  • emails.value co 'someone.may' or emails.value co 'test.user'

  • not areaCode co '1' and not ((not countryCode sw '1' or phoneType ew '6') and is Primary eq true)

Configuring changes in One Identity Manager to support filter conditions

  1. Open the Synchronization Editor tool.

  2. Select SCIM connector and the Target system

  3. Navigate to Schema Classes.

  4. Add a new schema class for the perphone.

  5. Add the System filter and Select Object condition. Click Commit to Database.

  6. In PerPhones mappings, edit the Target system schema class with the recently created schema and click Commit to Database.

  7. Run the synchronization.

    The Filter conditions will be created.

Conditions on "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" & "Separate Effective And Future Dated Employees Endpoints" flags based on different use cases (for version v.5.0 and above)

  • Use Case #1: Get effective or future dated(if effective record does not exist) employee records in the employees endpoint response

    • "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" - OFF

    • "Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints" - OFF

  • Use Case #2: Get only effective employee records in the employees endpoint response and no separate endpoint for future dated employee records

    • "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" - ON

    • "Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints" - OFF

  • Use Case #3: Get only effective employee records in the employees endpoint response and get a separate endpoint for future dated employee records

    • "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" - ON

    • "Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints" - ON

Supervisor configuration parameters

SuccessFactors HR is an integrated human-resources platform. It offers users tools for onboarding, social business, and collaboration along with tools for learning management, performance management, recruiting, applicant tracking, succession planning, talent management, and HR analytics. It is also cloud-based.

To configure the connector, following parameters are required:

  • Connector Name
  • Username (Format: <userId (not the value for username) of the SuccessFactors service account>@<company_id>)
  • Password (needed till v.5.0)
  • SuccessFactors HR instance URL (https://apps.support.sap.com/sap/support/knowledge/public/en/2215682).

  • Private key (v.6.0 onwards)

  • Client Id (v.6.0 onwards)

  • Custom Object Types (v9.0 onwards)

  • Instance DateTime Offset (refer Configuring additional datetime offset in connectors for more details)

  • Minimal Attributes (in v1.0 and v2.0)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, only the minimal set of attributes for all the objects will be queried from the SuccessFactors HR system.

  • Fetch Effective Dated Records Only (v3.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, only the effective dated employees will be queried from the SuccessFactorsHR system.

  • Activate Custom Attributes With Full Name (v5.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, then custom attributes would be prefixed with the full name of the navigational attributes.

  • Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints (v5.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, the employees would be separated into two endpoints - the effective dated and future dated.

  • Retry Server Call

    IMPORTANT:

    • Retry Server Call is used to make a retry request to the SuccessFactorsHR system in-case of failures related with an unreachable instance at a given point in time.

    • By default the value is set to false. The customer can enable it in-case such failures are encountered.

  • loginMethod (v9.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, the employees would have loginMethod attribute in the response.

  • Use base 64 encoded id in synchronization (on v10.1)

    NOTE: The default value is false. Set this to true if the id contains special characters and needs the base 64 encoding to support the synchronization.

Connector limitations

  • DELETE operation is supported only by the PerEmails endpoint.

  • Except for PerEmails and PerPhones, CREATE operation is also not supported by any other endpoints.

  • UPDATE operation is supported by two endpoints on selected attributes as listed below:

    • Employees - username, cellPhone, businessPhone, and email

    • PerEmails - emailAddress, emailType.

    • PerPhones - phoneNumber, phoneType, areaCode, countryCode, and isPrimary.

  • If there are multiple records with same 'startDate' coming in at a later point, then it would not be handled since 'startDate' doesn't have a time stamp.

  • 'startDate' is in servertime. Hence, it can't be converted into UTC as the timezone information of the SAP server is unavailable.

  • PerPhones and PerEmails endpoints do not support filters on "id" attribute of SCIM response.

Support for Filter Condition

SuccessFactorsHR connector supports the filter condition for all the objects (i.e., endpoints). We could apply the filter condition and take the filtered records from SuccessFactorsHR target system.

  • The connector supports filter conditions for all the objects.

  • The connector supports filter condition in all the Versions.

  • Supports only AND, OR, and NOT logical operators.

  • Supports only parenthesis () for grouping the condition.

  • The connector supports only single quotes (‘) with filter condition value (ex: phoneType co '10101')

  • Filter conditions should be applied on those attributes that can be filtered. For more information, refer List of Attributes for Filter Condition.

  • Complex attributes are not supported in the filter condition (example: name, email). Only sub-attributes are supported. (email.value, name.familyName)

  • Filter condition should follow the syntax

    For example: 

    1. <attribute_name><space><operator><space>'<string_value or date_value>'

    2.<attribute_name><space><operators><space><int_value or bool_value>

  • Filter condition values should NOT have single quotes or percentage with the filter condition value example: (userName co 'O'Malley') or (userName co 'O%Malley%')

  • Filter condition is NOT supported by the connector for Custom attributes.

  • Supports the following operators to filter the values with example should apply in OneIM.

    S.No Operators OneIM System filters OneIM Select Objects
    1 eq → equal to phoneType eq '00000' phoneType = '00000'
    2 ne → not equal to phoneType ne '00000' phoneType <> '00000'
    3 co → contains phoneType co '00000' phoneType like '%00000%'
    4 sw → starts with phoneType sw '00000' phoneType like '00000%'
    5 ew → ends with phoneType ew '00000' phoneType like '%00000'
    6 gt → greater than phoneType gt 100 phoneType > 100
    7 lt → less than phoneType lt 100 phoneType < 100
    8 ge → greater than or equal to phoneType ge 500 phoneType >= 500
    9 le → less than or equal to phoneType le 500 phoneType <= 500

Some of the example filter conditions (Should be applied at OneIM):

  • phoneType co '1'

  • phoneType eq '00000'

  • emails.value co 'someone.may' or emails.value co 'test.user'

  • not areaCode co '1' and not ((not countryCode sw '1' or phoneType ew '6') and is Primary eq true)

Configuring changes in One Identity Manager to support filter conditions

  1. Open the Synchronization Editor tool.

  2. Select SCIM connector and the Target system

  3. Navigate to Schema Classes.

  4. Add a new schema class for the perphone.

  5. Add the System filter and Select Object condition. Click Commit to Database.

  6. In PerPhones mappings, edit the Target system schema class with the recently created schema and click Commit to Database.

  7. Run the synchronization.

    The Filter conditions will be created.

Conditions on "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" & "Separate Effective And Future Dated Employees Endpoints" flags based on different use cases (for version v.5.0 and above)

  • Use Case #1: Get effective or future dated(if effective record does not exist) employee records in the employees endpoint response

    • "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" - OFF

    • "Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints" - OFF

  • Use Case #2: Get only effective employee records in the employees endpoint response and no separate endpoint for future dated employee records

    • "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" - ON

    • "Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints" - OFF

  • Use Case #3: Get only effective employee records in the employees endpoint response and get a separate endpoint for future dated employee records

    • "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" - ON

    • "Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints" - ON

Supported objects and operations

SuccessFactors HR is an integrated human-resources platform. It offers users tools for onboarding, social business, and collaboration along with tools for learning management, performance management, recruiting, applicant tracking, succession planning, talent management, and HR analytics. It is also cloud-based.

Supervisor configuration parameters

To configure the connector, following parameters are required:

  • Connector Name
  • Username (Format: <userId (not the value for username) of the SuccessFactors service account>@<company_id>)
  • Password (needed till v.5.0)
  • SuccessFactors HR instance URL (https://apps.support.sap.com/sap/support/knowledge/public/en/2215682).

  • Private key (v.6.0 onwards)

  • Client Id (v.6.0 onwards)

  • Custom Object Types (v9.0 onwards)

  • Instance DateTime Offset (refer Configuring additional datetime offset in connectors for more details)

  • Minimal Attributes (in v1.0 and v2.0)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, only the minimal set of attributes for all the objects will be queried from the SuccessFactors HR system.

  • Fetch Effective Dated Records Only (v3.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, only the effective dated employees will be queried from the SuccessFactorsHR system.

  • Activate Custom Attributes With Full Name (v5.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, then custom attributes would be prefixed with the full name of the navigational attributes.

  • Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints (v5.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, the employees would be separated into two endpoints - the effective dated and future dated.

  • Retry Server Call

    IMPORTANT:

    • Retry Server Call is used to make a retry request to the SuccessFactorsHR system in-case of failures related with an unreachable instance at a given point in time.

    • By default the value is set to false. The customer can enable it in-case such failures are encountered.

  • loginMethod (v9.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, the employees would have loginMethod attribute in the response.

  • Use base 64 encoded id in synchronization (on v10.1)

    NOTE: The default value is false. Set this to true if the id contains special characters and needs the base 64 encoding to support the synchronization.

Connector limitations

  • DELETE operation is supported only by the PerEmails endpoint.

  • Except for PerEmails and PerPhones, CREATE operation is also not supported by any other endpoints.

  • UPDATE operation is supported by two endpoints on selected attributes as listed below:

    • Employees - username, cellPhone, businessPhone, and email

    • PerEmails - emailAddress, emailType.

    • PerPhones - phoneNumber, phoneType, areaCode, countryCode, and isPrimary.

  • If there are multiple records with same 'startDate' coming in at a later point, then it would not be handled since 'startDate' doesn't have a time stamp.

  • 'startDate' is in servertime. Hence, it can't be converted into UTC as the timezone information of the SAP server is unavailable.

  • PerPhones and PerEmails endpoints do not support filters on "id" attribute of SCIM response.

Support for Filter Condition

SuccessFactorsHR connector supports the filter condition for all the objects (i.e., endpoints). We could apply the filter condition and take the filtered records from SuccessFactorsHR target system.

  • The connector supports filter conditions for all the objects.

  • The connector supports filter condition in all the Versions.

  • Supports only AND, OR, and NOT logical operators.

  • Supports only parenthesis () for grouping the condition.

  • The connector supports only single quotes (‘) with filter condition value (ex: phoneType co '10101')

  • Filter conditions should be applied on those attributes that can be filtered. For more information, refer List of Attributes for Filter Condition.

  • Complex attributes are not supported in the filter condition (example: name, email). Only sub-attributes are supported. (email.value, name.familyName)

  • Filter condition should follow the syntax

    For example: 

    1. <attribute_name><space><operator><space>'<string_value or date_value>'

    2.<attribute_name><space><operators><space><int_value or bool_value>

  • Filter condition values should NOT have single quotes or percentage with the filter condition value example: (userName co 'O'Malley') or (userName co 'O%Malley%')

  • Filter condition is NOT supported by the connector for Custom attributes.

  • Supports the following operators to filter the values with example should apply in OneIM.

    S.No Operators OneIM System filters OneIM Select Objects
    1 eq → equal to phoneType eq '00000' phoneType = '00000'
    2 ne → not equal to phoneType ne '00000' phoneType <> '00000'
    3 co → contains phoneType co '00000' phoneType like '%00000%'
    4 sw → starts with phoneType sw '00000' phoneType like '00000%'
    5 ew → ends with phoneType ew '00000' phoneType like '%00000'
    6 gt → greater than phoneType gt 100 phoneType > 100
    7 lt → less than phoneType lt 100 phoneType < 100
    8 ge → greater than or equal to phoneType ge 500 phoneType >= 500
    9 le → less than or equal to phoneType le 500 phoneType <= 500

Some of the example filter conditions (Should be applied at OneIM):

  • phoneType co '1'

  • phoneType eq '00000'

  • emails.value co 'someone.may' or emails.value co 'test.user'

  • not areaCode co '1' and not ((not countryCode sw '1' or phoneType ew '6') and is Primary eq true)

Configuring changes in One Identity Manager to support filter conditions

  1. Open the Synchronization Editor tool.

  2. Select SCIM connector and the Target system

  3. Navigate to Schema Classes.

  4. Add a new schema class for the perphone.

  5. Add the System filter and Select Object condition. Click Commit to Database.

  6. In PerPhones mappings, edit the Target system schema class with the recently created schema and click Commit to Database.

  7. Run the synchronization.

    The Filter conditions will be created.

Conditions on "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" & "Separate Effective And Future Dated Employees Endpoints" flags based on different use cases (for version v.5.0 and above)

  • Use Case #1: Get effective or future dated(if effective record does not exist) employee records in the employees endpoint response

    • "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" - OFF

    • "Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints" - OFF

  • Use Case #2: Get only effective employee records in the employees endpoint response and no separate endpoint for future dated employee records

    • "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" - ON

    • "Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints" - OFF

  • Use Case #3: Get only effective employee records in the employees endpoint response and get a separate endpoint for future dated employee records

    • "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" - ON

    • "Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints" - ON

Mandatory Fields

SuccessFactors HR is an integrated human-resources platform. It offers users tools for onboarding, social business, and collaboration along with tools for learning management, performance management, recruiting, applicant tracking, succession planning, talent management, and HR analytics. It is also cloud-based.

Supervisor configuration parameters

To configure the connector, following parameters are required:

  • Connector Name
  • Username (Format: <userId (not the value for username) of the SuccessFactors service account>@<company_id>)
  • Password (needed till v.5.0)
  • SuccessFactors HR instance URL (https://apps.support.sap.com/sap/support/knowledge/public/en/2215682).

  • Private key (v.6.0 onwards)

  • Client Id (v.6.0 onwards)

  • Custom Object Types (v9.0 onwards)

  • Instance DateTime Offset (refer Configuring additional datetime offset in connectors for more details)

  • Minimal Attributes (in v1.0 and v2.0)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, only the minimal set of attributes for all the objects will be queried from the SuccessFactors HR system.

  • Fetch Effective Dated Records Only (v3.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, only the effective dated employees will be queried from the SuccessFactorsHR system.

  • Activate Custom Attributes With Full Name (v5.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, then custom attributes would be prefixed with the full name of the navigational attributes.

  • Separate Effective And FutureDated Employees Endpoints (v5.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, the employees would be separated into two endpoints - the effective dated and future dated.

  • Retry Server Call

    IMPORTANT:

    • Retry Server Call is used to make a retry request to the SuccessFactorsHR system in-case of failures related with an unreachable instance at a given point in time.

    • By default the value is set to false. The customer can enable it in-case such failures are encountered.

  • loginMethod (v9.0 onwards)

    NOTE: The default value is false. When the value is set to true, the employees would have loginMethod attribute in the response.

  • Use base 64 encoded id in synchronization (on v10.1)

    NOTE: The default value is false. Set this to true if the id contains special characters and needs the base 64 encoding to support the synchronization.

Connector limitations

  • DELETE operation is supported only by the PerEmails endpoint.

  • Except for PerEmails and PerPhones, CREATE operation is also not supported by any other endpoints.

  • UPDATE operation is supported by two endpoints on selected attributes as listed below:

    • Employees - username, cellPhone, businessPhone, and email

    • PerEmails - emailAddress, emailType.

    • PerPhones - phoneNumber, phoneType, areaCode, countryCode, and isPrimary.

  • If there are multiple records with same 'startDate' coming in at a later point, then it would not be handled since 'startDate' doesn't have a time stamp.

  • 'startDate' is in servertime. Hence, it can't be converted into UTC as the timezone information of the SAP server is unavailable.

  • PerPhones and PerEmails endpoints do not support filters on "id" attribute of SCIM response.

Support for Filter Condition

SuccessFactorsHR connector supports the filter condition for all the objects (i.e., endpoints). We could apply the filter condition and take the filtered records from SuccessFactorsHR target system.

  • The connector supports filter conditions for all the objects.

  • The connector supports filter condition in all the Versions.

  • Supports only AND, OR, and NOT logical operators.

  • Supports only parenthesis () for grouping the condition.

  • The connector supports only single quotes (‘) with filter condition value (ex: phoneType co '10101')

  • Filter conditions should be applied on those attributes that can be filtered. For more information, refer List of Attributes for Filter Condition.

  • Complex attributes are not supported in the filter condition (example: name, email). Only sub-attributes are supported. (email.value, name.familyName)

  • Filter condition should follow the syntax

    For example: 

    1. <attribute_name><space><operator><space>'<string_value or date_value>'

    2.<attribute_name><space><operators><space><int_value or bool_value>

  • Filter condition values should NOT have single quotes or percentage with the filter condition value example: (userName co 'O'Malley') or (userName co 'O%Malley%')

  • Filter condition is NOT supported by the connector for Custom attributes.

  • Supports the following operators to filter the values with example should apply in OneIM.

    S.No Operators OneIM System filters OneIM Select Objects
    1 eq → equal to phoneType eq '00000' phoneType = '00000'
    2 ne → not equal to phoneType ne '00000' phoneType <> '00000'
    3 co → contains phoneType co '00000' phoneType like '%00000%'
    4 sw → starts with phoneType sw '00000' phoneType like '00000%'
    5 ew → ends with phoneType ew '00000' phoneType like '%00000'
    6 gt → greater than phoneType gt 100 phoneType > 100
    7 lt → less than phoneType lt 100 phoneType < 100
    8 ge → greater than or equal to phoneType ge 500 phoneType >= 500
    9 le → less than or equal to phoneType le 500 phoneType <= 500

Some of the example filter conditions (Should be applied at OneIM):

  • phoneType co '1'

  • phoneType eq '00000'

  • emails.value co 'someone.may' or emails.value co 'test.user'

  • not areaCode co '1' and not ((not countryCode sw '1' or phoneType ew '6') and is Primary eq true)

Configuring changes in One Identity Manager to support filter conditions

  1. Open the Synchronization Editor tool.

  2. Select SCIM connector and the Target system

  3. Navigate to Schema Classes.

  4. Add a new schema class for the perphone.

  5. Add the System filter and Select Object condition. Click Commit to Database.

  6. In PerPhones mappings, edit the Target system schema class with the recently created schema and click Commit to Database.

  7. Run the synchronization.

    The Filter conditions will be created.

Conditions on "Fetch Effective Dated Records Only" & "Separate Effective And Future Dated Employees Endpoints" flags based on different use cases (for version v.5.0 and above)
