SAP SuccessFactors Integration Monitoring

When you subscribe to SAP SuccessFactors, you get a really polished HCM or employee experience, both for master data within Employee Central as well as talent modules. Unfortunately, SuccessFactors does not live in isolation. You need a payroll system and you also need a finance system. In the case of SuccessFactors, that is most commonly Employee Central Payroll and an S/4HANA system such as S/4HANA Cloud or S/4HANA Private Cloud Edition. Because these systems need to talk to one another, there are synchronisation jobs that run on a regular basis. And unfortunately, these do not always work as intended. Oftentimes, things do not synchronise and therefore you are sitting with missing data on payroll or missing data on your S/4HANA system. This could be a real big problem when you have to run payroll only to realize that not all of the data is on the payroll system. With the Query Manager Integration Monitor solution, we can help you guarantee that the data is there. We compare the data on the source such as SuccessFactors as well as on the target such as Employee Central Payroll or even an HCM on-premise payroll system and help you see what is missing, what didn't synchronise correctly or what wasn't mapped correctly, enabling you to fix these issues before your payroll run, helping you get payroll done on time.

Query Manager looks at our on-premise data, and the data in our SuccessFactors system, and allows us to compare that data and determine if there are any inaccuracies. Once we run the replication, we can see how many errors there are, what’s not right and what’s not matching. It’s so quick, we can filter out the noise we don’t need and focus on what’s important.

I am blown away. (Query Manager) takes any and every variable in SAP, and can mash it up to a depth that is needed on my job. What I need it for is to dig into the depths of SAP for anomalies that I know lurk in bad data.
