With the SAP SuccessFactors Human Experience Management (HXM) Suite, it is our mission to simplify everyday HR tasks and increase productivity with high-impact, intuitive functionality, and with the second half 2023 release we are doing just that!  As a top-rated customer enhancement request, we are pleased to share that we are introducing a new audit tool in SAP SuccessFactors Compensation that can help planners more easily track the changes others have made to their compensation recommendations.

A New Planner Audit Tool

Planners can now view and download a compensation change history log directly from the compensation, variable pay and total compensation worksheets, as well as from the Executive Review. This tool gives planners real-time visibility into the compensation changes that are made as the worksheet is routed to others for review and approval, while reducing the workload on admins to run audit reports to share with planners.

Planner Audit – Change History Log

The audit history log can be filtered by criteria including start date, end date, employee, modified by, location, department, and job code to display the data most relevant to the planner.  And, with access to the auditable data managed with field-based permissions, users can only view or edit the planner audit change history data for which they are authorized.  Additionally, the change history log can be downloaded as a csv report for offline use.

Planner Audit – Filter Criteria 

The planner audit feature can be enabled for up to 10 fields per template. Some standard fields and all custom fields can be selected to be auditable. See here for the list of standard fields that are not supported by planner audit. Note that you cannot enable the feature or add additional fields for planner audit if worksheets have been created for a template.
