In SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, when configuring composite associations, the system validates that the destination object has its effective dating set to "From Parent." This setting ensures that the effective dates of the associated records are synchronized with the parent object, maintaining data consistency across related entities.
This validation is crucial because it ensures that any changes in the parent object's effective dates are appropriately reflected in the associated child objects, thereby preserving the integrity of historical data and future-dated records.
