Build a connected approach to
workforce management
Organizations today must manage workforce
complexity faster than legacy processes can support.
Hybrid work and changing labor laws increase
coordination demands, while fragmented visibility
creates coverage strain and uncertainty. A clear view
of time, schedules, and availability gives teams the
clarity to perform with confidence.
SAP SuccessFactors solutions combine absence, time and
attendance, and scheduling into one connected portfolio
to support today’s complex workforce management needs.
With shared data and consistent experiences, leaders can
gain real-time visibility into frontline employees, improve
compliance, and reduce manual work—enabling a workforce
that adapts faster to change.

Simplify and enhance
workforce operations
Modern workforce operations depend on three core
capabilities that work together to simplify how work gets
done, especially for frontline and shift-based teams:
• Absence management provides a clear view of
employee absence types, helping organizations manage
availability and apply policies consistently (see Figure 1).
• Time and attendance records employee working hours
to support accurate payroll processing, compliance, and
control of labor costs (see Figure 2).
• Workforce scheduling aligns shifts with demand,
availability, and skills to maintain effective coverage
(see Figure 3).
Together, these capabilities form a connected foundation
that helps organizations streamline operations, improve
visibility, and adapt to change quickly while enhancing
everyday workforce performance.

Manage multiple absence types with ease
SAP SuccessFactors solutions help organizations manage
absences across more than 100 countries. From vacation
and sick leave to maternity, paternity, and other absence
types, teams can apply consistent processes while
meeting local requirements.
Across devices, employees can request time off, view
balances, and plan leave without back-and-forth emails.
At the same time, managers can see who’s off and what’s
pending, making it easy to plan coverage and prevent last-
minute understaffing (see Figure 4). HR teams benefit from
automated accruals, country-specific rules, and payroll
integrations that help eliminate manual calculations and
support correct pay each time.
Absence data updates instantly across scheduling, time
tracking, and payroll, while dashboards and reports reveal
trends, identify coverage risks, and support smarter
workforce planning. Together, these capabilities create a
transparent, compliant, and flexible absence process that
keeps operations running continuously and supports
employees.

Save everyone’s time
The SAP SuccessFactors Time Tracking solution
modernizes time and attendance processes for
employees, managers, and HR teams.
Employees can clock in and clock
out quickly, whether using a mobile
device, desktop, or a clock terminal
(see Figure 5). The solution’s intuitive
self-service tools let employees
view hours, track attendance, and
manage exceptions with real-time
validations and rule-based calcula-
tions that help prevent errors before
they affect pay. This reduces admin-
istrative tasks and allows frontline
workers to focus on their work.
Managers can see hours worked, attendance patterns,
and exceptions in real time with alerts for overtime,
schedule violations, or insufficient rest (see Figure 6).
They can resolve issues early, control labor costs, and
maintain coverage. Meanwhile, payroll teams can access
a single, accurate time data source that helps them
accelerate approvals and prevent errors.
In return, the time process is faster and more reliable,
saving companies time, building employee trust, and
keeping pace with today’s complex workforce.
