Announcing the General Availability of User Provisioning form SAP SuccessFactors to Azure AD

On August 6th, Microsoft and SAP announced the general availability of user provisioning from SAP SuccessFactors to Azure AD. In addition, SAP and Microsoft have been working closely together to enhance existing integrations between Azure AD and SAP Cloud Identity Services of the SAP Cloud Platform, making it easier to manage and secure your SAP applications.

 

User provisioning from SAP SuccessFactors to Azure AD is now generally available

With the integration between Azure AD and SAP SuccessFactors, you can now automate user access to applications and resources so that a new hire can be up and running with full access to the necessary applications on day one. The integration also helps you reduce dependencies on IT helpdesk for on-boarding and off-boarding tasks.

Thanks to your feedback on our public preview, we’ve added these new capabilities:

  • With enhanced attribute support, you can now include any SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central attributes associated with Person, Employment and Foundation objects in your provisioning rules and attribute mapping.
  • Using flexible mapping rules, you can now handle different HR scenarios such as worker conversion, rehire, concurrent assignment, and global assignment.
  • In addition to email, we now support writeback of phone numbers, username, and login method from Azure AD to SAP SuccessFactors.

      Hi Rashmita,

      Thanks for this blog, all the help documentation from Microsoft is also quite helpful.

      I'm looking for a specific clarification to do with future dated transactions in SF EC, e.g. a promotion starting next month. It looks like the provisioning app will push the employee's new position and manager details as soon as the transaction is entered in EC (Delta mode will pick the data as soon as changed).

      I'm curious to know if there is a way to pick these future dated transactions on the effective date? e.g. Promotion effective 1st Jan 2022 should be sent on 1st Jan 2022 and not on date of transaction?

      Any chance of achieving this?

      Regards,

      Prasenjit
