Overview
Empuls and SAP Success Factors integration allows employees to recognize peers, redeem rewards, and complete engagement tasks directly within your SAP SuccessFactors environment. By unifying these tools, organizations can build a culture of appreciation in the flow of work—eliminating the need to switch apps or remember multiple logins.
Follow this guide to start recognizing and rewarding your team instantly within the SAP SF.
1. Send Instant Recognition
Why this matters: Boost team morale instantly without disrupting your workflow. Timely, public appreciation reinforces positive behavior and increases peer visibility across the organization.
Step 1: Log In
Log in to your SAP SuccessFactors account using your standard credentials.
Step 2: Recognize
Navigate to the Home page and click the prominent "Recognize" button to launch the recognition tool.
Step 3: Customize & Send
In the single modal workflow, search for and select the colleague(s) name you wish to appreciate. Choose the appropriate Award Category, tag a specific Core Value (e.g., "Customer First"), and write a personalized message in the citation box. Click Send to instantly publish the post to the Company Feed for everyone to see.
Tip: Use the AI Recommendations tool (located at the bottom of the message box) to help draft impactful citations.
2. Redeem Reward Points
Why this matters: Instant gratification with one-click access to a global marketplace. Select from thousands of locally relevant gifts and experiences without navigating to a separate portal.
Step 1: Enter the Marketplace
On the Home Page, click the "Redeem Rewards" button. This will automatically authenticate you and redirect you to the full Rewards Marketplace within the SAP interface, showing your current points balance.
Step 2: Select & Checkout
Use the Country/Region drop-down menu to filter rewards available in your specific location. Browse categories such as Gift Cards, Merchandise, Experiences, or Charity.
Step3: Add to Cart and Pay
Select your desired item, add it to your cart, and click Pay to instantly redeem your points and complete the transaction.

Step 1: Open the Hub
On the SAP SuccessFactors home page, click the "Empuls" tab to launch the full engagement dashboard.
