SuccessFactors database

Former Member

When I work in SAP ERP system, I always checks the values, for example when I create a new report.

This check I do directly in the database, transaction code SE16, to make sure it works OK.

I have seen SAP standard reports that not works as it should, and therefore I'm always a little suspicious.

In SF, is there any way we can reach the database, to make sure nothing is missing, or do we have to belive that everything works as it should?

How about another application like Tableau trying to access SuccessFactors using a connector... has anyone made this work?

Hi Peter,

There is no way to access the database in SuccessFactors. You can query data in ad-hoc reporting or view it in various screens, but you can't access the database.

All the best,

Hi Luke.

Thank you for your answer, even if I don't like it. 🙂

It doesn't have anything to do with authorizations then?

I mean, it has to exist a database where the data are stored.

Hi Peter,

Access to data is controlled by authorizations and data is stored in a database, but direct access is not provided. Even the APIs apply business logic prior to accessing data. Reporting is the closest you can get.

OK. Thank's Luke.

Then, I have to belive that the SuccessFactors work as it should, without any bugs.
