Jessica Ennis-Hill will miss this month's Hypo-Meeting in Gotzis but has not suffered a setback in her recovery from injury.
The 30-year-old has been battling a long-standing Achilles problem which saw her withdraw from the World Indoor Championships in Portland in March.
Ennis-Hill had been hoping to use the Austrian event - one of the most important on the heptathlon calendar from May 28-29 - as a means of assessing her own form and that of her rivals in the run-up to Rio.
But coach Toni Minichiello told Sky Sports they had made a decision not to compete rather than it being forced by any injury setback.
The decision will not unduly affect her hopes of reaching Rio, given that she has already achieved enough points over the course of the year to ensure she will qualify to defend her title.
Fellow Britons Katarina Johnson-Thompson and Morgan Lake are set to compete in Gotzis as they bid to achieve the qualifying standard required to join Ennis-Hill in Rio.
