Symptom

What is the usage of Time and Attendance link in home page

Integrating SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central with Kronos Workforce Central

"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."

Environment

Employee Central
Kronos Workforce Central

Reproducing the Issue

Log into the SuccessFactors instance
Click "Home" and in the menu see "Time and Attendance"

Resolution

This Home menu link is a direct integration from SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central to Kronos' Workforce Central application.

The "Time and Attendance" link in Home menu has nothing to do with Employee Central Time Off or Employee Central Time Sheet products.

If SAP customers have partnered with Kronos or Workforce (they are other cloud based Time and Attendance vendors), they can configure and use this link to navigate to those vendor applications directly from withing SAP SuccessFactors.

The Home menu link can be enabled/disabled via Provisioning > Company Settings > the check box for the feature "Enable Employee Central V2 timesheets link (uncheck to disable the timesheets link)"

NOTE: Once this link is enabled, ALL users in the instance will see this item in the "Home" drop-down menu. It is not governed by Role-based Permissions, therefore it cannot be restricted to a certain set of users. This would require an Enhancement Request. Clicking this link will open a new Browser Window and direct the user to the Kronos application.

Permissionable Link: If you require the link to Time and Attendance to be permissionable, please instead setup the URL in the Custom External Module feature. More info can be found in 2373626 - Enable Configure Custom Navigation and grant permission
