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.
