Admin Center is the central access point to a wide range of administration features and tools that you can use to
configure and maintain each of your SAP SuccessFactors solutions. It also provides tools for monitoring overall
system health and usage and for managing cross-suite and third-party integrations.
As a system administrator for any SAP SuccessFactors solution, the Admin Center gives you easy access to the
tools you need.
Anyone with permission to see one or more admin tools or admin pages can access the Admin Center, but they can
only see the tools and pages that they have permission to see. The admin tools available to you in Admin Center
depend on the SAP SuccessFactors solutions enabled in the system and the permission granted to you, based on
your role.
Note
NextGen Admin is the only UI version and from now on will be referred to as the Admin Center. For more
information, please refer to Deprecation of OneAdmin and Transition to NextGen Admin under Related
Information explaining this transition.

setting that you have the permission to see.
The admin homepage is the entry point to the Admin Center. It is a tile-based landing page that provides quick
access to many administrative features and a user experience that is consistent with the SAP Fiori standards.
As an administrator, you can personalize the admin homepage to suit your individual needs, by adding or removing
tiles.
Tiles on the admin homepage give you quick access to many administrative features. Some tiles enable you to take
action directly on the home page. Others provide a "snapshot view" and link you to another Admin Center feature.
Note
For more information on different ways to search for tools, or to personalize your admin homepage, please refer
to Admin Tools, Finding a Tool in the Admin Center and Personalizing the Admin Center Homepage under

In the past, there were two versions of Admin Alerts; the legacy Admin Alerts and the newer Admin Alerts 2.0. As
Admin Alerts 2.0 has reached feature parity with the legacy Admin Alerts, we deprecated the legacy Admin Alerts
tile, and renamed the newer Admin Alerts 2.0 tile to just Admin Alerts.
The Admin Alerts tile informs you of pending action items in your system, such as stalled workflows, integration
issues, and HR data issues.
Admin Alerts inform you of pending action items in your system, such as stalled workflows, integration issues, and
HR data issues.
System and HR administrators can access Admin Alerts through the Admin Alerts tile in Admin Center. Managers
can access Admin Alerts through the quick action card on the home page.
There are several applications where Admin Alerts can be used at this time:
The following permissions are specific to Admin Alerts and can be found in the role-based permissions under
Administrator Permissions Admin Alerts :
Note
There are some applications that don't use the Admin Alerts UI, but link directly from the Admin Alerts tile
to their own application UI. This permission isn’t required for those applications because the configuration
can only be done under Admin Center Manage Data , for object Admin Alert Type Configuration.
• Trigger Rerun
Only grant this permission to senior admins because the rerun triggers the re-evaluation of all alerts of a
particular alert type.
In addition, some applications, such as Workflow, have permissions specific to alert types for that application.
Please look at the relevant application documentation for details.
Note
It isn’t recommended to use the permission Admin access to MDF OData API in the Metadata Framework
section for business users. This permission is only to be used for technical users in integration scenarios.

Get emails about new alerts for the alert types that are most important to you.
Prerequisites
Context
Instead of depending on the next scheduled job and checking for new alerts in the Admin Alerts tile, you can set up
to get daily or weekly emails about new alerts for specific alert types.
Procedure
You get a popup with a list of the alert types for which you have permissions.
4. In the popup, select the frequency of email notifications for the corresponding alert types. You have the
following options:
• Daily: Emails are sent daily after the nightly build has run.
• Weekly: Emails are sent each Sunday after the nightly build has run.
• None: No emails are sent.
Results
If alerts occurred, you get an email listing the alert types for which you've added a frequency other than None.
Enable the assignment of alerts once to make it available for all alert types that allow this feature.
Context
Distribute workload or find substitution for colleagues on leave by assigning alerts to the relevant person for
processing.
Note
Not all applications have this feature. In addition, some applications, such as Workflow, have permissions
specific to alert types for their application. Please take a look at the relevant application documentation for
details.
Procedure
Note
If you change the field to No, then the periodic run which updates the Admin Alerts during the night is set to
inactive. Certain alerts that depend on the nightly periodic run (like stalled workflows, for example) will not
be updated anymore automatically, and thus deliver outdated results.
Results
On the alert type detail screen for Admin Alerts, you can now see the Assign button, provided that the application
allows this feature.
Process and correct various issues in your system by choosing the appropriate action.
Prerequisites
For more information, please refer to Permissions for Admin Alerts [page 13].
Context
The Admin Alerts tile in the Admin Center displays warnings that, for example, some dynamic role users are invalid
and require processing.
Procedure
The tile shows all admin alert types for which you have the required permissions, such as the Invalid Dynamic
Role User.
2. Select the alert type you want to work on.
You get to the Admin Alerts detail screen which shows a list of the alerts received for the alert type you
selected. The list shows only active data, but there's a Show also inactive box you can check so that inactive
data also appears.
Note
There are some applications that don't use the Admin Alerts UI, but link directly from the Admin Alerts
tile to their own application UI. In this case, refer to the application-specific documentation for more
information on how to process the alerts.
In the case of Invalid Dynamic Role Users, you see a list of those whose users are no longer valid because, for
example, they have left the company.
Note
For alerts related to Event Subscription Management errors, you can select the alerts under the alert type
Failed Domain Events.
If all alerts of an alert type have the same underlying issue, you can also select all of them at once by selecting
the top-left checkbox.
5. If you think you can solve the underlying problem for the alerts, choose Action.
Depending on the application the alert type belongs to, you can choose from a range of actions to solve the
issue.
If the issue has been solved, the alert is removed from the alerts list.
Next Steps
If you think you've solved the underlying issue that caused the alert, but the alert is still displayed in the alerts list,
select Recheck from the actions list, if available. This removes the solved alert from the alerts list.
Prerequisites
You have the Administrator Permissions Admin Alerts Configure Alert Types permission.
Procedure
1. Go to Admin Center Admin Alerts and select the corresponding alert type.
The Admin Alerts page opens, listing the alerts for the selected alert type.
2. In the top-right corner of the Admin Alerts page, select Configure Alert Type.
The Configure Alert Type popup for the selected alert type opens.
3. Select the corresponding configuration option.
Results
If alerts are created in a job, then the changes are usually reflected in the next job run. There are some exceptions:
Note
To display inactive alert types on the Admin Alerts page, select the Show also inactive Admin Alert Types
checkbox that is displayed next to the Admin Alert Type dropdown list.
To display inactive alerts also on the Admin Alerts tile, you need to change the settings under Configure
Alert Type back to Active Yes , which displays the alert type on the tile again.
The alerts for the alert type that is set back to active are updated after the next rerun or periodic run.
There are several options to make companywide configurations to admin alert types.
Note
Consider that not all configuration options are supported by all alert types. For more information, please refer
to the application-specific documentation.
Active
Hides admin alert types from the Admin Alerts tile and the Admin Alerts page when the Active configuration option
is set to No. This way, you prevent stalled workflows, for example, from cluttering the list of alerts and making you
miss the important new alerts.
By default, only the current records are considered when alerts are created. You can include also past and future
records in the next rerun or periodic run when alerts are created.
Note
This configuration option is available only for the HR Data Issues alert type.
Defines the frequency with which the list of alerts is updated for an admin alert type.
For example, you check the alerts you're responsible for only once a week, so you don't want to get an update of
which alerts are still open every day. By setting the frequency to weekly, you prevent the job running unnecessarily,
using performance capacity.
Note
If the frequency is predefined for an alert type, you can't choose a different option.
• Daily
Job runs daily between midnight and 6 o'clock in the morning.
• Weekly
Job runs once a week, early on Monday morning.
• Monthly
Job runs the first Monday in the month, early on Monday morning.
• Never
Stops updating the alerts until the job frequency is changed again, or until you select the Rerun button.
Stalled Days
Includes only workflows that have been stalled for the specified number of days.
Note
You can configure the system to automatically acknowledge (auto-acknowledge) specific admin alerts after a
defined amount of time.
If an alert is still displayed in the alerts list although you've solved it, you can recheck if the underlying issue that
caused the alert still exists.
Prerequisites
Context
This option checks if the reason that caused the selected alerts and any associated alerts still exists and updates
the database accordingly.
For alerts that are solved directly on the Admin Alerts user interface, this is done automatically in the background.
For alerts that are solved elsewhere, for example, on the application-specific user interface, the alerts might remain
in the alerts list. To have them removed from the alerts list, you can do a recheck, or wait for the next job run.
Procedure
You get to the Admin Alerts detail screen which shows a list of the alerts received for the alert type you
selected.
3. Select the alerts that you want to recheck, and select Action Recheck .
If the underlying issues that caused the alerts have been solved, the alerts are removed from the alerts list.
6.1.7 Options for Updating the Alerts List for an Alert Type
There are several options to update the list of alerts shown for an alert type during the workday, so that it displays
only the alerts that are still valid. Which option you choose depends on its availability and your use case.
The list of alerts for all alert types is updated automatically depending on the frequency of the automatic job runs.
However, during your workday, you might want to make sure that the list of the alert type you're working on is

extensibility or retention periods.
The Admin Alert Type Information popup opens when you select the Information button in the top-right corner of
the admin alert type page.
Name The name of the alert type as displayed on the user interface.
Retention of Alerts If a retention period for an alert type is defined, the alerts that
are older than the retention period are automatically purged in
a nightly job.
Maximum Number of Unresolved Alerts If a maximum number of unresolved alerts is defined for an
alert type, and this number has been reached, no new alerts
are created. In addition, the current alerts are not automati-
cally updated even if they've been resolved in the meantime.
You can add custom fields to an alert object to display more information to alerts than what is included in the
standard setup.
Each alert object contains a predefined list of fields that can be accessed using the Settings option on the Admin
Alerts page of the corresponding alert type. For example, for the alert types based on the alert object Time
Management Alert (such as Generate Time Sheets, Recalculate Time Sheets, and so on), you can display the user,
the message severity, and other predefined fields. Using the Settings option, you can add or remove these fields to
the alerts list, and sort, group, or filter them.
If you need additional information that is not included in the standard setup, you can add custom fields to the
corresponding alert object and fill these fields with values from application objects.
Add custom fields to an alert object on the Configure Object Definitions page.
Context
• You have the Administrator Permissions Metadata Framework Configure Object Definitions permission.
• You've checked that adding fields is possible for the corresponding alert type.
You find this information on the Admin Center Admin Alerts page of the corresponding alert type, by
selecting the Information button in the top-right corner. In the popup that opens, you can see the name of the
underlying alert object and whether you can add fields to it, under Extensible.
Procedure
Results
The custom field is added to the Settings option on the Admin Alerts page for the alert type that is referring this
alert object.
Note
To add the custom field to the alerts list, you need to reselect it from the Settings options every time you open
the Admin Alerts page of the corresponding alert type.

Adding Fields
Create an On Load rule to fill custom fields used in alert objects with the desired value.
Prerequisites
• You have the following role-based permissions under Administrator Permissions Metadata Framework :
• Manage Data
• Configure Business Rules
• You know the name of the corresponding alert object.
You find this information on the Admin Center Admin Alerts page of the corresponding alert type, by
selecting the Information button in the top-right corner. In the popup that opens, you can see the name of the
underlying alert object and whether you can add fields to it, under Extensible.
• You've added a custom field to the corresponding alert object on the Configure Object Definitions page.
Procedure

rule scenario is preselected.
5. Enter the required fields for the rule.
a. As Base Object, select the corresponding alert object.
b. As Purpose, select On Load.
Note
A different purpose could lead to performance issues or missing alerts (if the rule stops being executed
for some reason, the alert object is not written to the database and thus alerts go missing).
In this example, you define that the custom field Country is filled with the default value from the job
information. The If condition is always true.

The AI-assisted writing tool is an interactive tool that uses generative AI capabilities to assist employees with their
writing tasks. While writing content in the SAP SuccessFactors applications, employees can leverage the features of
the AI-assisted writing tool to enhance multiple aspects of their writing, such as clarity, conciseness, and tone.
The following is a summary of the capabilities offered by the AI-assisted writing tool:
• Uses language processing capabilities to understand the context of a sentence and suggest enhancements in
grammar, spelling, vocabulary choices, and phrasing.
• Ensures improved readability and a consistent tone (professional, personable, or constructive) to suit the
communication needs for different audience groups in the organization.
• Provides the options to communicate a message in fewer or more words and transform paragraphs to bulleted
lists.
• Provides additional actions in the context of the tasks that users perform in their SAP SuccessFactors
applications.
The following table outlines the available actions in the AI-assisted writing tool.
Action Description
Enhance Writing Suggests enhancements in grammar, spelling, vocabulary choices, and phrasing in the con-
text of the selected line or paragraph.
Change Tone Provides options to change the tone of the selected line or paragraph to professional,
personable, or constructive to suit the communication needs for different audience groups
in the organization.
Make Shorter Shortens a selected line or paragraph to convey the message more concisely.
Make Longer Rewrites a selected line or paragraph by adding more words to provide a detailed explana-
tion based on the original content.
Make Bulleted List Converts a selected line or paragraph into a bulleted list to simplify complex information,
and enhance readability by breaking it down into easy-to-read points.
Analyze Text Performs a safety scan on each text box, prompt entry, or Generative AI output in order to
detect bias, and suggest replacement text for any language flagged as potentially biased,
discriminatory, or harmful.
Translate Translates the written text into the target language chosen by the user. The following capa-
bilities are supported with this action:
• Translation from en-US (US English) to all 46 languages supported in SAP SuccessFac-
tors.
• Full translation between the following languages: English (US), German, French, Span-
ish, Portuguese, Chinese (Simplified) and Japanese.
Note
For information about the languages supported by the AI-assisted writing tool, refer to SAP Note 3396784 .

The User Feedback feature lets users provide real-time feedback on AI-assisted outputs in SAP SuccessFactors.
Users can rate AI-generated content and add optional comments, helping refine AI-driven features over time.
AI-generated content continuously evolves based on user input. By collecting and analyzing feedback, SAP
SuccessFactors can improve AI accuracy, relevance, and usability, ensuring it better supports business needs.
Beyond improving individual AI responses, user feedback helps identify broader trends and areas for refinement.
Patterns in ratings and comments provide valuable insights into recurring issues, allowing SAP SuccessFactors to
enhance AI-assisted processes, refine system prompts, and improve user experience over time.
• Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down Ratings: Users can quickly show whether AI-assisted content is helpful by
selecting a thumbs up for positive feedback or a thumbs down to highlight issues.
• Reasons for Thumbs Down: If a user chooses thumbs down, they can select from multiple reasons like
"Inaccurate Information," or "Off Topic" to clarify why the response did not meet their needs.
• Optional Comments for Extra Detail: Users can enter free-text comments to provide further context. This
additional input helps SAP SuccessFactors identify patterns and make targeted improvements.
To continuously enhance AI-generated content, submitted feedback may be analyzed to identify patterns, improve
features and functionalities, and refine user experience. Feedback may also help optimize AI-generated responses
by assessing trends in thumbs-down ratings and reviewing selected reasons or comments where applicable.
Note
While user ratings enhance the overall user experience, User Feedback is not used to train the AI system but
instead for improvements in the application, user experience, and prompt engineering.
Feedback data are not tied to Customer Data, and we do not have information about which user provided the
feedback. Additionally, users should avoid including personal or sensitive data in the free-text fields.

You can use the Upgrade Center to learn about and apply important opt-in upgrades and legal changes.
You can read about each upgrade, view screenshots and videos, and learn about feature prerequisites and
permissions required to perform the upgrade.
If you're interested in an upgrade but not ready to adopt it immediately, you can flag it as saved it for later and share
a link with colleagues to get feedback.
Some updates can be easily undone with one click, directly in Upgrade Center. For upgrades with the Undo option,
you typically have up to 30 days to undo the upgrade.
Remember
To perform an upgrade, you often need to have a specific role-based permission. Having access to the Upgrade
Center page itself doesn't allow you to perform all of the available upgrades. You can only perform an upgrade
if you have the appropriate permission. If you don't have permission, you can read about the upgrade, but you
can't use it to enable the feature.
Caution
Not all upgrades require a specific permission. If no permission is required, anyone with access to the Upgrade
Center can perform the upgrade.
If you choose, you can control who has access to the Upgrade Center page using role-based permission.
Prerequisites
• You have access to Provisioning or the Enable Upgrade Center Permission setting is already selected in
Provisioning.
Remember
As a customer, you don't have access to Provisioning. To complete tasks in Provisioning, contact your
implementation partner or Account Executive. For any non-implementation tasks, contact Technical
Support.
By default, access to the Upgrade Center page itself is not controlled by role-based permission and it can be
accessed by anyone with access to Admin Center. To control access with role-based permission, you first need to
have that control enabled in Provisioning.
Remember
To perform an upgrade, you often need to have a specific role-based permission. Having access to the Upgrade
Center page itself doesn't allow you to perform all of the available upgrades. You can only perform an upgrade
if you have the appropriate permission. If you don't have permission, you can read about the upgrade, but you
can't use it to enable the feature.
Caution
Not all upgrades require a specific permission. If no permission is required, anyone with access to the Upgrade
Center can perform the upgrade.
Procedure
Results

Procedure
Configure system settings to define the page that users are redirected to after an expired session.
Prerequisites
Context
A user's session expires after a period of inactivity or when the user closes the browser without logging out. The
next time they log in, the user is redirected to either their last-visited page or their personal start page.
By default, users are redirected to their last-visited page. As an administrator, you can configure the redirection
behavior on the Company System and Logo Settings page.
Note
This setting only applies when the user's previous session has expired, without the user actively logging out. If
a user logs out, they're always redirected to their personal start page the next time they log in.
Procedure
