The digital landscape is evolving rapidly, especially in data privacy and browser functionalities. SAP SuccessFactors leads this adaptation with a major initiative: the migration to the Common Super Domain (CSD). This transition responds to the deprecation of third-party cookies in browsers like Google Chrome, scheduled for Q3 2024. In this update, we explain the implications of this change. We also show how Clarity Solutions supports clients during this transition.

The Need for Transition: Understanding the Impact on SAP SuccessFactors

The deprecation of third-party cookies represents a major shift in web technology, impacting how applications like SAP SuccessFactors operate. To address this, SAP is transitioning its applications to the CSD, moving from domains such as '*.successfactors.eu' to '*.cloud.sap'. This shift is crucial to maintain functionality and privacy standards, ensuring that cookies essential for SAP’s applications are treated as first-party, thus adhering to the new browser policies.

Navigating the Change: Solutions for Embedded iFrames and External UI Integrations

One of the key changes involves the use of embedded iFrames within the HXM Suite. SAP SuccessFactors will transition these functionalities to the CSD, thereby converting all third-party cookies to first-party cookies. Additionally, for external UI integrations that rely on third-party cookies, particularly for single sign-on and iFrame embedded functionalities, customers will need to adjust their settings to align with the new CSD (*.cloud.sap or *.sapcloud.cn).

How Clarity Solutions Facilitates Your CSD Migration

Our role at Clarity Solutions is to offer expert guidance and support to our clients during this migration process. We assist in updating domain settings and ensuring that external integrations comply with the new CSD, facilitating a smooth transition with minimal disruption to your daily operations.

Embracing the Future: SAP SuccessFactors and Data Privacy Advancements

The transition to the Common Super Domain is a proactive step by SAP SuccessFactors towards embracing the future of digital privacy and browser functionalities. It underscores SAP's commitment to providing secure, integrated, and cutting-edge solutions. Clarity Solutions actively supports clients through these developments and ensures their HR systems stay functional and comply with the latest changes.
