Error - Your machine is not authorized to access this system-Successfcators


Here are the KBAs we have followed:

2088150 - Troubleshooting Login Issues for SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite:

  • IP Restriction: Error - Your machine is not authorized to access this system:

    Your company is using IP restriction to prevent unauthorized access to the SuccessFactors Application and you are trying to access the system from an IP address that has not currently been authorized. Please log a case with SuccessFactors Support to have the new IP address added if this is an IP address that your company has authorized for access.

2089414 - System: How to restrict access to SuccessFactors by IP address - IP Restriction Management

According to what was said above, we are moving this case to Solution Provided. Please, be aware that the Solution Provided is the same as Customer Action, you have 30 days to reopen if you have questions. We are only choosing Solution Provided because at this moment there is no action from SAP.

Manage Data vs Manage Positions in SuccessFactors - my notes

Manage Data vs Manage Positions in SuccessFactors 


  • Position management sync is a very broad subject and is handled in various ways depending on where or how you do updates. SAP is recommending to NOT use the manage data tool at all for updating positions.'
  • Manage data tool is the same as far as updating positions from a data perspective when you compare it with manage positions tool, but it has no sync feature.
  • This is why there is a "manage positions" separate tool in the first place. In short, the "manage positions" tool = "manage data" tool + sync feature.
  • There is also sync capability in the position org chart when doing changes (Note that I say position org chart and not the regular org chart).
  • when we edit within position org chart, it will open the "manage positions" tool to do the changes.
