Live payroll reporting for SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll

Example payroll dashboard powered by Query Manager

Can you get live payroll reporting for SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll, including live API integration with SAP Analytics Cloud and SAP Datasphere?

It's no secret that the leading global payroll is SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll, and every day more clients migrate from on-premises SAP Payroll to SAP SuccessFactors in the cloud.

There is one business challenge, however, that is not solved for either payroll deployment model: easy access to live payroll data results. Every employer needs this access to properly reconcile, monitor and analyze their critical time and payroll data, as described in the blog titled SAP Payroll Reporting.

Unfortunately, as anyone using SAP or SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll knows, real-time reporting of live payroll data from the clusters is not easy. Historically, in the on-premise world, SAP customers had to make use of the Wage Type Reporter or custom development programming (ABAP) and the full life cycle transport process to create and maintain reports, a complex and costly process.

The roadmap for live payroll reporting

SAP SuccessFactors does an astute job of providing easy access to detailed roadmaps of where their technology is going, as noted in this blog How to Access SAP SuccessFactors Roadmaps. SAP SuccessFactors has communicated that some limited replicated payroll results will be made available for payroll reporting in SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll, but that there is no plan for live payroll result reporting.
