As SuccessFactors is completely cloud-based, you receive updates with new functions and improvements to existing features twice a year without any maintenance effort on your part.

By workforce process, we mean all SuccessFactors modules that simplify the administrative management of employees.
Employee Profile
Employee Profile is a basic repository for employee master data that is delivered with every SAP SuccessFactors installation, regardless of the licensed modules. As soon as Employee Central is used, Employee Profile recedes into the background and is then only relevant from a technical point of view.
Employee Profile is the database for all SuccessFactors modules (if Employee Central is not implemented). Employee Profile is used to save and view data such as the name, department, office location, managers etc. Furthermore, information from the employee’s resume, such as the academic career, professional experience, skills and certifications can also be stored.
In addition to the standard fields in Employee Profile, you have the option to define up to 15 additional fields according to your needs.
Apart from the Master Data Management, Employee Profile also offers you a simple organizational chart and an employee directory, which you can make available to your employees via the web and mobile apps.

In the modern working world, staff retention and the planning of efficient staff assignments start before the actual hiring. It is crucial to begin integrating new employees before they even start. The SAP SuccessFactors module Onboarding supports you in this process, providing you with all the tools necessary.
SuccessFactors Onboarding allows you to implement an ongoing onboarding process, including your HR department, the managers in charge and the new employee. Already before starting work, your new employee can access relevant information and establish contact with your company’s key figures. That way a major part of the formalities and the paperwork can be completed before the new employee starts work and he/she can introduce him/herself to his/her colleagues, which makes the whole process of joining a new company easier. When starting work, all necessary tools are already available for the employee having attended many onboarding workshops and his/her enrollment plan (possibly integrated with Learning) has already been determined.
This enables employees to start more quickly and identify with the company’s goals (possibly integrated with Performance & Goals). Using Onboarding, you can avoid employees suddenly changing their minds, shortly before or after they start work. In addition, rapid deployment of new staff saves you a lot of money.

Every day modern corporate software generates huge amounts of data that can serve as the basis for complex evaluations. Interpreting the data and making it usable can be very difficult. Many decisions are still made on the basis of intuition and guesswork, as factually sound evaluations take too long.
This changes fundamentally with People Analytics – you get the possibility of quickly evaluating your data status and creating evaluations yourself in a simple way.
People Analytics is an umbrella term for various solutions for the evaluation of your data and the design of visually appealing reports. It differentiates between four different cloud solutions, which are used in various areas. Two of these solutions use the SAP product SAP Analytics Cloud.
SuccessFactors Reporting
The Report Center is included in the license for the SuccessFactors Cloud Platform and you can use this to create analyses with data from all of your active SuccessFactors modules. Pivot and statistical methods, as well as calculated fields, enable the creation of complex reports using data from multiple sources. The tool is particularly easy to use: the creation and adaptation of reports is intuitive. Furthermore, there is a great number of predefined reports to satisfy your requirements.
You can use Story Reports to create visually appealing reports, which can immediately be shown to departments or managers upon access. With SuccessFactors Reporting you receive a more comprehensive view of your company and can make long-term decisions based on evidence.
SuccessFactors Workforce Analytics
This tool takes on many functions of a business warehouse. It is based on a multidimensional data cube that contains all your company’s relevant information, which can be linked and evaluated in all conceivable ways.
You get extensive possibilities to create advanced evaluations in a simple way: You can use Drag&Drop to put different data in relation to each other and, when you have the necessary overview of an area, you can jump directly to detailed analyses using drill-down techniques in order to analyze critical areas more thoroughly. There are also more than 2000 predefined Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) available with which you can receive a quick overview of the status of your company.
SAP Enterprise Analytics (Analytics Cloud for Enterprise)
The SAP Analytics Cloud is a sophisticated Business Intelligence solution that enables you to carry out decisive analyses about the state of your company. In addition to HR and financial data, you can analyze all kinds of areas of your company using this tool – and a wide range of external data sources can be connected. Comprehensive visualizations of this data allow you to gain exceptional insights into your business. With predefined analytics that you can easily tailor to your needs, you can take advantage of the full scope of this tool as quickly as possible and make decisions based on the insights you gain. Predictive analysis, supported by artificial intelligence, helps you to identify trends and make predictions.
SAP Workforce Planning (Analytics Cloud for Planning)
SAP Analytics Cloud for Planning is a company-wide solution for merging analysis and planning processes. The personnel planning process is elevated to a new level, thanks to the integration of heterogeneous data sources and also the unification of analysis and planning functions in one solution in the Cloud.

With SuccessFactors Employee Central and Employee Central Payroll it is possible to map human resources as an entirely independent system in the Cloud. However, many companies have already invested considerable sums of money in existing on-premise solutions from SAP or other providers, and wish to continue to use these. For you to protect these investments and use them with SAP SuccessFactors, SAP offers numerous options to integrate them with SAP systems and also solutions from other providers.
The simplest integration option is the use of SAP Integration Suite. This enables the direct addressing and management of APIs. Furthermore, with Integration Suite it is possible to fall back on the use of special middleware (corresponding to a data hub), such as SAP Cloud Integration (previously Cloud Platform Integration, SAP CPI). This enables a deeper integration with SuccessFactors, which can be implemented either via file transfer or via web services. Using middleware enables integration in real time, while with an integration via data transfer, data needs to be synchronized cyclically. For both options SAP offers numerous prefabricated solutions as well as Rapid Deployment Solutions (RDS), which can be easily integrated into already existing systems. Using modern web standards and open file formats for both integration variants allows the integration of both SAP systems and systems from other providers with SAP cloud solutions. In addition to the SAP Integration Suite, SAP Process Orchestration (SAP PO) or Dell Boomi offer corresponding alternatives for integration setup.
In a hybrid environment where one system is responsible for central data storage and management (usually your on-premise system), reliable integration and data synchronizing are crucial. We at HCM ADVICE are happy to support you with the implementation of your integration project, assisting you at any stage of your project. If you are interested, please contact us for more information.

SAP HCM/H4S4
The SAP HCM solution (also known as SAP HR or SAP HXM) is installed directly on the servers of your own data center or at outsourcing providers or alternatively used as the SAP S/4 HANA HCM solution in the cloud.
It supports your company in optimizing HR management. The modules can be categorized into the Workforce Process and Talent Management areas.
Workforce Process
By workforce process, we mean all SAP HCM modules that simplify the administrative management of employees.
ORGANIZATIONAL MANAGEMENT
SAP Organizational Management facilitates producing, collecting and managing all data pertaining to the organizational structure in a single, centralized location. Other modules use this database for numerous functions, such as defining workflows, assigning roles and permissions in the organization or assigning superiors. SAP Organizational Management prevents redundant data storage in other SAP modules’ organizational charts.
In SAP Organizational Management, you manage your organizational units, positions and people, assign management positions and transfer persons from one organizational unit to another.
In SAP Organizational Management, for planning and optimizing further restructuring, you can create and analyze various notional organizational structures in addition to the actual organizational structure.
Integrating SAP Organizational Management with SAP SuccessFactors allows you to provide your employees with a graphic of the organizational structure.

HR MASTER DATA
SAP HR Master Data management allows you to collect all relevant HR data in a centralized location and provide it to other modules. You complete all HR related workflows, such as an employee’s marriage or salary adjustments, and analyze the data according to your specific needs.
International companies will benefit from the many country-specific versions provided by SAP, which allow them to maintain data relating to a country’s legal provisions in the designated data fields.
With HR master data management, you can manage your international employees and expats as well as staff deployment activities. The integration with payroll ensures that you run expatriate payrolls correctly and prevents the double counting of taxes and other duties.
Integrating HR Master Data management with SAP Employee Self Services (SAP ESS) or SAP FIORI launchpad allows you to delegate various HR administration tasks, such as address changes, directly to your employees, unburdening your HR department.
In addition to the classic SAP HR Master Data management, SAP also offers the SuccesFactors module Employee Central, which is completely cloud-based, for the digitalization of the many structures and processes in the HR department or international HR department (either alternatively or supplementary).
SAP SuccessFactors allows you to make master data available to your employees so that they can view and analyze it. You also have the option of selecting which data should be available according to the employee’s positions. Being able to access data at all times, employees and especially managers can thus make better decisions.
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.

HR COST PLANNING
Future cost planning is an essential element of every successful company. Budget drafts at all levels of the company are necessary to be well prepared for the coming periods and to be alerted in time if planning is too far removed from reality.
SAP HR Cost Planning allows you to manage your personnel costs and simulate these for future months. It takes into account various factors, including the planned compensation for planned items, past and simulated payroll results (incl. tax or social security costs), but also planned pay scale reclassifications.
You therefore have constant access to an extensive overview of the actual situation in your company, and can compare this with various fictitious scenarios. This enables you to quantify optimization potential and prepare in advance for company restructuring and the accompanying cost changes this will bring about, as well as make appropriate decisions.
The results of HR Cost Planning can be transferred into other important SAP modules, such as Financial Accounting, Controlling and the SAP Business Warehouse.
For easy implementation of SAP HR Cost Planning, we at HCM ADVICE have created a template, allowing us to implement efficient HR cost planning with a web-based planning interface in your company.
As a cloud-based alternative to HR Cost Planning, SAP offers the SAP Analytics Cloud for Planning (SAC for Planning), which can be integrated in your SAP HCM system via standardized interfaces.
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.

SHIFT PLANNING
SAP Shift Planning enables your company to carry out work scheduling that takes into account your employees’ qualifications (SAP Qualification Management). In addition, you can manage on-call duty arrangements and assign employees to specific task forces and working groups, such as relieve and repair crews.
SAP Shift Planning allows you to both analyze, manage and optimize current workforce deployment and monitor as well as simulate future HR needs so that you are well prepared to react to changes. You can both analyze existing qualifications revealing your employees’ hidden potential and point out in time that additional qualifications need to be obtained, either through further trainings (SAP Learning Solution, SuccessFactors Learning) or recruiting (SAP Recruiting, SuccessFactors Recruiting).
If shift planning is integrated in SAP Employee Self Services (SAP ESS), your employees can view their current schedules and request changes based on their personal availability and preferences, which will then be sent to the responsible manager for approval. Eliminating the need for many time-consuming interviews and discussions, this automatism greatly unburdens managers and shift leaders.

TIME MANAGEMENT
SAP Time Management includes all the functions your company needs to record and analyze working time. In addition, you can manage employee attendances and absences and make the data available to other modules, especially SAP Payroll.
SAP Time Management supports both positive (recording all attendances and absences) and negative (recording deviations from the work schedule) time management and enables you to create shift schedules based on your specific needs and according to legal regulations. Your employees have many options for recording their times, such as standardized integration in terminal systems, SAP Employee Self Services (SAP ESS) and SAP Cross Application Time Sheet (SAP CATS) or SAP FIORI apps on the smartphone. SAP Time Evaluation automatically generates increases and reductions, making all relevant data directly available to SAP Payroll and other modules.
In SAP Time Management, you can create different absence and attendance types for your employees, such as vacation or professional development time, and automatically assign them to eligible employees. Employees can enter their leave requests directly into the system (or using SAP ESS or mobile SAP FIORI apps) and send these to their superiors for approval.
Integration into SAP ESS means that your employees have the option of independently viewing their time statements or entering the afore-mentioned leave requests.
As a time management system in the Cloud, SAP offers the SuccessFactors Time Tracking module. This can be seamlessly integrated into both the SuccessFactors Employee Central module and Employee Central Payroll in SAP HCM.

PAYROLL
One of the most important parts of human resources is the payroll department. Because of the many legal regulations and various special cases occurring among employees, payroll can be very complex.
Combined with other HR modules, SAP Payroll enables you to efficiently manage all payroll-related tasks. Already its standard version allows you to take care of nearly all your company’s requirements, such as off-cycle payroll, analyzing time data, seizures or year-end jobs in a highly automated manner. HCM ADVICE can adapt these standard solutions to your specific requirements enabling you to view and manage any conceivable payroll scenario.
SAP Payroll is available in many country-specific versions, which include local legal regulations and are adapted to legal changes yearly. This keeps you up-to-date on legislation, ensuring correct payroll accounting.
Integration with HR Master Data ensures that it is smoothly integrated into your calculations. When, for example, a child is born, the correct allowances are generated automatically, without the need for manual HR intervention.
Integration with Time Management means that you can run payroll for your employees, accurate to the hour and including hours, allowances, absences, and periods of sickness.
SAP Payroll is also integrated with Finance Management, allowing for seamless payment processing.
Ongoing payroll data storage ensures high data quality. In case revisions are necessary, the needed data is readily available at all times.
The Payroll Control Center (SAP PCC) allows you to manage SAP Payroll via an innovative web interface supporting you with initial data integrity checks, workflow-oriented payroll graphs and many other tools. PCC allows you to manage payroll both via your On-Premise SAP HCM and as cloud-based service in data centers hosted by SAP. Integration with SuccessFactors Employee Central and the Payroll Control Center means that you can manage payroll directly in SucccessFactors and administer all payroll data in the Employee Central.

INCENTIVE WAGES
The SAP Incentive Wages component enables you to pay your employees based on their performance. SAP supports the following forms of payment: time wage (employees are paid on the basis of the time they have worked), premium wage (a performance-related, variable premium is added to the standard wage), and piecework wage (employees are paid for each unit produced or action performed). Incentive wages can be used for both individual employees and groups, for example a production line.
In order to collect the data needed for calculating the incentive wage, it is necessary to create an interface between the SAP Logistic module and the PDC (Plant Data Collection) terminals.
SAP Incentive Wages is integrated into the SAP Payroll and SAP Time Management components, which can use Incentive Wages data to determine various balances and employee payments.

HRForms by Adobe
HRForms by Adobe is the next generation of SAP Smart Forms and SAPscript. The new PDF-based print forms can be easily combined with the SAP Netweaver technology platform, thanks to decades of intensive cooperation between SAP and Adobe. With this new technology, HRForms by Adobe enables the simplest structuring method for data output or entry to date, with a layout that is both clear and easy to understand.
Regardless of whether it is a remuneration statement or a time sheet, HRForms, with extensive, advanced, and complex new features (e.g. enhanced layout options or support of script languages) always offers the option of creating an attractive and modern-looking form, compared with the old alternative, which also meets your technical requirements at the same time.
The use of PDF forms in electronic business processes in the SAP environment has opened up unimagined scalability and integration possibilities due to the widespread use of Adobe Reader. Using Adobe Reader, an e-mail program, and/or a web browser, a created HRForm can be easily opened, edited, and redistributed at any time.
For years HCM ADVICE has specialized in the introduction, adaptation, and enhancement of customer-specific remuneration statements and time sheets. With our knowledge and experience in both Adobe LiveCycle Designer and the SAP environment, we will be happy to help you design the remuneration statement completely according to your needs, from functionality to layout.

Talent Management
Talent Management includes all SAP HCM modules that specialize in identifying, attracting, developing, and retaining the right talent.
RECRUITING & E-RECRUITING
SAP E-Recruiting is a module of SAP HCM On-Premise Suite that is currently being phased out. SAP E-Recruiting offers your company all the tools necessary for selecting, placing, developing, and retaining new employees. Entirely web-based, E-Recruiting can be accessed at any time.
SAP E-Recruiting allows you to manage applications, keep in touch with candidates and build talent pools from which to choose possible employees. Talent pools also ensure that potential successors for key positions are available, thus helping to keep your company running smoothly.
SAP E-Recruiting offers you an online job portal, which you can integrate into your homepage to facilitate future employees’ application process. Application data is transferred to SAP and made available to those responsible. They can automatically screen applications and use the tool to directly contact suitable applicants.
If your company is also using SAP Organizational Management, vacant positions listed there can be directly added to the recruiting process.
When an applicant is hired, the integration with the SAP HR Administration allows you to add applicant data directly to Employee Master Data Management, without the need for entering the same data twice.
If your company is using SAP Employee Self Services, you can make an in-house internal application portal available to your employees where they can apply for positions and view their application’s status at all times.
SAP E-Recruiting is based on traditional SAP Recruiting which is similar in scope but not web-based. HCM ADVICE also provides support for all questions related to traditional SAP Recruiting.
SAP E-Recruiting will no longer actively be further developed by SAP. SAP offers the comprehensive Recruiting solution from SAP SuccessFactors, which is provided completely in the Cloud and can be integrated into your SAP HCM On-Premise or Cloud systems via standard interfaces.
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.

LEARNING SOLUTION
The SAP Learning Solution (SAP LSO) is a module of SAP HCM On-Premise Suite that is currently being phased out. While the module is currently still in maintenance by SAP, the LSO will no longer actively be further developed. SAP offers two modern alternatives for the successful management of your company-wide advance training in its portfolio. On one hand, SuccessFactors Learning, which is part of the SuccessFactors HCM Suite and, on the other hand, SAP Litmos, which, with its short implementation time and integrated authoring tools, is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized companies.
Today professional development and employees’ life-long learning are key to a company’s success. To meet these challenges, SAP offers the Learning Solution component providing support with any tasks related to learning management.
SAP Learning Solution (SAP LSO) is based on SAP Event Management but also offers online trainings and e-learning, in addition to face-to-face trainings.
SAP Learning Solution offers a learning management system to create and manage trainings, a content management system to store and manage learning content and tests and a learning portal allowing your employees to access all contents. On the learning portal, employees can search the trainings that are being offered and register for them.
If your company uses SAP Employee Self Services, it can be seamlessly integrated with the learning portal.
Via integration with the SAP Qualification Management, employees can compare their qualifications with those of the positions being offered and thus choose and register for relevant trainings.
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.
SUCCESSION PLANNING
SAP Succession Planning is a module of SAP HCM On-Premise Suite that is currently being phased out. SAP Succession Planning allows you to create job profiles and succession plans, ensuring that critical key positions can be staffed at all times.
Succession Planning is based on the concept of jobs and positions and only realizes its added value in combination with SAP Organizational Management, which it complements. If new positions are created in Organizational Management, Succession Planning facilitates a timely response, thus ensuring that you find the ideal candidate. In case you cannot find a suitable internal candidate, you can use SAP E-Recruiting or SuccessFactors Recruiting to find external candidates.
Via integration with SAP Qualification Management, you can match positions with potential successors in regard to qualification requirements and profiles and assign employees to trainings in SAP Learning Solution in order for them to develop the necessary qualifications in time.
SAP Succession Planning will no longer actively be further developed by SAP. SAP offers the extensive Succession solution from SuccessFactors, which is provided completely in the Cloud and can be integrated into your SAP HCM On-Premise or Cloud systems via standard interfaces.
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.
QUALIFICATIONS MANAGEMENT
SAP Qualification Management facilitates creating and managing a qualifications catalog suitable for your company. Individual qualifications can be fine-tuned by means of proficiency scales, thus allowing you to define specific levels of mastery.
Qualifications Management allows you to look for employees with specific qualifications, compare different employees and thus find the ideal candidate for a specific task.
The Qualifications catalog can be integrated into other SAP HCM components, for example:
After creating qualification profiles in Organizational Management, you can then match them with employees’ qualifications or search for a suitable candidate for the position.
Via trainings in Learning Solution, newly acquired qualifications can automatically be assigned to employees.
In SuccessFactors Learning, you can also use an integration scenario to transfer newly acquired qualifications into your SAP HCM On-Premise solution for further use.
In Shift Planning, you can use qualifications to assign employees task or shifts that match their qualifications.
In E-Recruiting, you can evaluate candidates based on the qualifications required for the position to be filled.
And much more …
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.
COMPENSATION MANAGEMENT
SAP Compensation Management is a module of SAP HCM On-Premise Suite that is currently being phased out. SAP Compensation Management allows you to plan and manage your compensation strategy, thus staying ahead of the competition when it comes to finding the best employees.
In combination with SAP Organizational Management, SAP Compensation Management allows you create budgets for your organizational units; those responsible can then make payments to employees.
Compensation Management allows you to analyze your compensation strategy and compare it with external benchmark data to make sure that you stay ahead of the competition.
In addition, Compensation Management allows you to manage employee participation and to assign dividends either manually or automatically.
Via the integration with HR Master Data, payments are directly transferred from an employee’s compensation plan and automatically taken into account by Payroll.
SAP Employee Self Services makes it possible for your employees to independently view their compensation plans. In addition, employees can choose possible participation options according to criteria defined by themselves.
SAP Compensation Management will no longer actively be further developed by SAP. With the Compensation Management and Variable Pay module, SAP offers an extensive solution from SuccessFactors, which is provided completely in the Cloud and can be integrated into your SAP HCM On-Premise or Cloud systems via standard interfaces.
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.
PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
SAP Performance Management is a module of SAP HCM On-Premise Suite that is currently being phased out. SAP Performance Management allows you to define company goals and cascade them to specific organizational units and employees. By implementing a transparent goal management process that aligns your employees with company goals, you are promoting the long-term success of your company.
Managers can evaluate employees and their goal achievement as well as set goals for future periods, thus promoting your employees’ further development. If you are also using SAP Learning Solution, you can plan trainings supporting employees in achieving their goals.
Based on goal achievement, employees can be paid based on their performance using Compensation Management, for example, they can be paid a bonus that is then directly taken into account by Payroll.
SAP Performance Management makes different kinds of evaluations available, such as self-evaluations, peer evaluations and 360-degree assessments. These evaluations are also taken into account when it comes to the regular employee evaluations.
SAP Performance Management will no longer actively be further developed by SAP. SAP offers the powerful SuccessFactors Performance & Goals, which is provided completely in the Cloud and can be integrated into your SAP HCM On-Premise or Cloud systems via standard interfaces.
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.
TRAVEL MANAGEMENT
Today corporate travel is part of most companies’ daily business. Since business trips can be expensive, companies strive to minimize travel expenses, especially in economically strained times. SAP’s comprehensive travel management solution supports you when planning, processing and monitoring business trips.
SAP Travel Management enables your company to manage all the processes involved in handling trips, including requesting and planning the trip, approval prior to the trip, cost approval and reimbursement of expenses. That way travel expenses can be reimbursed to the employees automatically via SAP Payroll or Financial Accounting.
As is the case with many SAP components, there are many country-specific versions of SAP Travel Management, mapping national characteristics relating to expenses or daily allowances, for example, in SAP in conformity with the law.
Integration into SAP Employee Self Services (SAP ESS) or SAP FIORI apps means that your employees can independently request trips and send to managers for approval, book flights, hotels or rental cars and record travel expenses.
In addition to SAP Travel Management, SAP also offers Concur, the global market leader in cloud-based travel management. Concur can be integrated with other SAP modules and used on its own and thus is also of use to companies without SAP system.
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.

Analytics
Do you have any questions, or want to inquire about something specifically? We look forward to hearing from you:
The HR Information System/HR Reporting offers your company the tools to perform numerous standard analyses or conveniently create its own analysis.
The different components of the HR Information System are the standard analyses, the Ad Hoc Query and the SAP Query.
SAP standard analyses are prebuilt reports covering most of the needed information. Examples of standard analyses include summaries of employees’ attendances and absences, staff assignments for organizational units or positions and payment reports.
In addition to standard reports, Ad Hoc Queries or SAP Queries allow you to create any type of analysis and store it for later use.
Our experienced consultants will either create these analyses for you or assist your HR department in doing so.
In case you need even more specific analyses that are beyond the scope of these tools, we are happy to create a customized program catering to your requirements.
In the SAP Portfolio, SuccessFactors People Analytics presents a modern alternative to traditional human resources information systems, facilitating cloud-based analyses of your company’s key KPIs (Key Performance Indicators).
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.
CROSS-APPLICATION
Do you have any questions, or want to inquire about something specifically? We look forward to hearing from you:
CATS TIMESHEET
The CATS timesheet (Cross-Application Time Sheet) is a cross-application tool for recording working times, tasks and amounts and linking them with account assignment elements such as assignments, projects or cost centers. Following approval by the relevant manager, the entries made are available to all integrated components, such as Controlling, Logistics, etc. as well as Time Management or Payroll Accounting.
Since it is an interface tool, using the timesheet necessitates using at least one of the components Time Management, Payroll Accounting, Controlling, Maintenance, Project System, Customer Service or External Services as well. With each integrated component you increase the added value of CATS
Your employees can call up CATS either directly in the SAP system or via an integration with SAP Employee Self Services in your company’s portal.
Via SAP FIORI you can call up the time sheet both on your smartphone or tablet and in a traditional web browser.
We at HCM ADVICE have many years of experience introducing, adapting and extending CATS and are happy to help you optimize CATS for your company. Please see our flyer for more information on how to use CATS in conjunction with process orders or how to make sure that all working hours are distributed among orders:

GENERAL & STRUCTURAL AUTHORIZATIONS
Since highly sensitive data is stored in your SAP Human Capital Management System, it is important to grant access to authorized staff only.
To implement effective controls SAP provides a powerful authorization concept which allows you to combine individual authorizations and assign them to employees. This can be done manually or automatically on the basis of individually defined rules.
With SAP Authorization Concept you can both authorize your employees to call up specific programs and determine which data they can view (For example, national HR staff should be able to call up only employee data from the relevant country.)
Different kinds of access can be specified (read-only, change, erase, dual control change, etc.) and assigned separately.
Using the structural authorizations, you can also determine which organizational units within your Organizational Structure (based on positions) an employee has access to. In case of staffing changes, employees automatically receive the correct authorizations for their new positions.
With many years of experience, we at HCM ADVICE are happy to support you with planning and implementing the optimal Authorization Concept for a smooth business. If you are interested, please contact us for more information.
NEW USER INTERFACES
Do you have any questions, or want to inquire about something specifically? We look forward to hearing from you:
SAP FIORI APPS
SAP FIORI is an ever-expanding apps collection, provided by SAP for coping with numerous tasks in the SAP system. With their advanced design, FIORI Apps emphasize user-friendliness and high productivity.
The FIORI interface is also in the process of becoming the new SAP standard interface. That way, regardless of their technological basis, all SAP programs share the same advanced Look&Feel facilitating your employees’ introduction to new SAP programs.
Your employees can launch SAP FIORI on any browser and thanks to responsive design (adapting to the output device) also use it efficiently on their smartphone or tablet. That way they can complete tasks from anywhere and anytime.
The apps’ user-friendly design and the easy access to FIORI will speed up your processes and as a result, directly reduce your costs.
As entry point to SAP FIORI apps, each employee needs the FIORI launchpad, where all the apps an employee needs are clearly arranged. It allows you to launch any app and complete your tasks with a few clicks.
A few examples from the ever-expanding FIORI apps collection in SAP HCM:
Apply for and approve absences
Record, manage and release working times
View team schedule
Submit and approve travel requests
Record travel expenses
View employee data and teams
View and manage compensation plans
View remuneration statements
Apart from the FIORI apps provided by SAP, you also have the option of adapting existing apps to your needs or developing completely new apps fitting your individual requirements.
Our consultants at HCM ADVICE are happy to plan and implement a SAP FIORI apps project for you and/or develop customized apps fitting your specific requirements. Contact us without obligation.

EMPLOYEE & MANAGER SELF SERVICES
With SAP Employee Self Services (ESS) and Manager Self Services (MSS), your employees can perform numerous HR management processes on their own, significantly unburdening your HR department. SAP ESS/MSS are web-based technologies, allowing our employees and managers to access the offered services from anywhere.
Activities that every employee can execute are mapped in the Employee Self Services. Manager Self Services focusses on typical management activities.
Needless to say, you can also select an optimum set of options for your company, which will be available to your employees and managers in the SAP Employee Self Services and Manager Self Services.
The apps based on SAP FIORI, offered by SAP, represent an alternative to the classic ESS/MSS applications. Like ESS/MSS, SAP FIORI also offers a broad spectrum of apps that can be configured for employees and managers and, thanks to modern design guidelines, are extremely user-friendly and available on all devices. Of course FIORI and ESS/MSS can also be used in combination by integrating the Employee Self Services into the FIORI Launchpad thus enabling the use of the best of both technologies for your company.
With SAP HR Renewal, the Self Service applications receive a new, attractive user interface, thereby becoming more user-friendly and less prone to error.
We would like to show you in detail what options you have when integrating the various SAP components, and what activities you can make available to your employees.
If your employees are authorized, they can use ESS and MSS to view their personal data (for example address, bank details, or communications data) and perform updates, which your managers can then approve or discard.
Combined with Time Management, ESS/MSS allows your employees to record working times online, submit leave requests and view an overview of working times and absence quotas. Your managers can either approve or deny the leave requests and also view team absences and attendances.
In Payroll and Compensation Management, there is an option to display employees’ salary statements directly online and let your employees select their individual compensation plan from those available.
SAP Event Management, where employees can sign up for events, and SAP Learning Solution, where they can access learning materials directly online, can also be integrated with ESS/MSS. The relevant manager can check these registrations and, if necessary, reject or change them.
Integrating the SAP E-Recruiting solution with the Self Services offers your employees an internal job portal, where they can directly apply for open positions. Managers can both manage the job postings and contact candidates.
Shift Planning tasks can also be integrated with ESS/MSS. Employees can list their preferred working times which are then made available to the relevant manager for planning purposes. After planning working times, employees can view the final schedule.
Travel Management can also be integrated with ESS/MSS, allowing your employees to directly request trips, manage travel budgets and process travel expense records.
Far from complete, this list of ESS & MSS functions gives you only a few examples of the many options you can make available to your employees using ESS & MSS.
Regarding modules that are integrated with ESS/MSS, you can also make reporting options available to your managers.
If you are interested, please contact us for more information.
