Where are we on the Road to the Release?
 
SAP SuccessFactors will release its Q3 product and feature updates to your production instances on September 8th. We encourage you to spend time becoming familiar with any changes by using your test environments, which were updated with the Q3 release on August 4th. Have questions about these changes before production release? Post them to the appropriate product page/s.
 
For those of you attending SuccessConnect Las Vegas, consider joining us for a breakout session to hear how a fellow customer overhauled their release process to take full advantage of the Road to the Release.

TLS 1.0 disablement – action needed
 
Please note, on September 30th, SuccessFactors is upgrading a security protocol and you may need to take action to avoid disruption. We are disabling Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.0. While this will not affect many customers, some of you who use older versions of browsers, platforms or integrated applications may need to ensure compatibility with TLS 1.1 or 1.2 to avoid disruption. Read our Customer Community posting or Knowledge Base Article for details.

Resource Roundup
 
A monthly selection of our favorite resources…
 
The Customer Empowerment Events calendar--on the Community's home page -- includes Training, Community, VIP, and Release events. You can view and register directly from the display that appears when you hover your cursor over an event. 
 
Product / Feature retirements are a regular occurrence to keep you using the most up to date versions of our technology. We are making changes to how we manage retirements and you can access information about all upcoming retirements through the Empowerment Center link. 
 
Find these and other resources on the Customer Community.
