Prerequisites

Before continuing, ensure you have the following:

  • A valid TechWolf contract and access to a live TechWolf tenant.

    • The jobs in this tenant must be populated with the Job Roles present in SAP SuccessFactors, which can for example be achieved by using the Standard Job Data Input Integration .
    • It is also possible to load in the data in other ways, for example by writing custom input integrations. When doing this, an essential detail is linking Jobs in the TechWolf SkillEngine API with their corresponding SAP SuccessFactors Job Role objects. The ID of the job roles must be used as the ID of the jobs in TechWolf.
  • An SAP SuccessFactors environment with Talent Intelligence Hub and Job Profile Builder implemented.

    Enabling Talent Intelligence Hub activates the Attributes Library. This allows using TechWolf skills in your SuccessFactors environment.

    Enabling Job Profile Builder allows using Job Families and Job Roles. TechWolf synchronizes skill profiles between SAP SuccessFactors Job Roles and SkillEngine API Jobs.

  • Access to the TechWolf SFTP server to host the integration files.

  • An SAP support case to whitelist the TechWolf SFTP server .

TechWolf has already pre-configured some parts of the integration. The following ZIP archive contains the necessary files that will need to be imported into your SAP SuccessFactors environment:
