You want to introduce a traffic light account in SAP HCM time evaluation for exceeding flextime. If certain limits are exceeded, "the traffic light" switches to yellow or red and a defined group of people is informed by email.

If the yellow threshold is exceeded, the person concerned should be informed. The HR department and the works council are also informed if the threshold value exceeds the red limit.

In personnel cost planning, there is an option to consider employees who have joined at short notice, such as temporary workers, for whom there are currently no payroll results. These employees have missing time tracking data upon entry. Payroll results from the previous year cannot therefore be extrapolated 1 to 1. In addition to personnel cost planning based on simulated and actual payroll results, as well as salary-relevant data from infotypes, costs can also be planned as a lump sum at the organizational level. In the following section, the procedure is explained using the example of temporary workers.

You can just use the tool or commission us with a project on this topic.

The maintenance of the SAP organization management is typically organized very centrally. As a rule, the sovereignty lies with a few people in the Human Resources department. Especially with intensive use, this is of crucial importance for the data quality. However, the 'pre-processes' that lead to a change in SAP OM are mapped incompletely or not at all in SAP HCM.

This article presents an example scenario for applying for new positions and how it was implemented by LM Consulting.

With the "Integration add-on 3.0", SAP offers various business scenarios for the integration between the SuccessFactors HCM Suite and SAP ERP HCM.
This article gives you an overview of the integration scenarios for master data exchange between SuccessFactors Employee Central and SAP ERP HCM.
In addition to the SAP standard solution, we will introduce you to the difference and the extensions of the LM Consulting solution.

SAP scenario: SuccessFactors with Employee Central and SAP ERP HCM
In this scenario, SuccessFactors Employee Central (SF EC for short) is the leading master data system. While the employee master data is replicated between the systems, i. e. employee data changed in SAP ERP HCM is delivered to SF EC, organizational data is exclusively delivered from SF EC to SAP ERP HCM.

The integration includes the following steps:

CSV files are still a popular and easy way to import data into or export from SAP.

We have developed a framework with which it is possible to import any type of CSV file into an 'internal table'. The only requirement is to create the table structure of the 'Internal Table' in the ABAP Dictionary.

In the first step, the data is read into a string table either locally from the PC or from the application server. In the second step, the data is converted into the 'internal table'.

Due to the field definition in the ABAP Dictionary, a syntactical check for the respective data type takes place automatically. For example, integer values ​​and floating-point numbers (amount fields) can be checked for content and their minimum and maximum length and scope. Likewise date/time fields, language and currency, CHAR fields and their defined length.
Special attention is paid to the date. When importing CSV files, a wide variety of date formats are used, which need to be converted into the SAP internal format. If a date format is used which is not defined in SAP or on the executing user (table USR01), you can specify your own date format globally or via the field definition (see below) for each field. For example, the date 15/16/1 in the form DD/YY/MM can be recognized as 15.01.2016.

The mapping of long-term working time accounts is gaining in importance for many employers. There are various reasons for this: on the one hand, it can help to reduce the costs associated with demographic change and, on the other hand, it ensures competitive advantages in attracting and retaining qualified specialists and executives. For the employee, it offers the possibility of building up a value credit for a leave of absence or early retirement without loss of the statutory pension. Read here the detailed project presentation of the introduction of a LAZ model at a reference customer of LM CONSULTING.

The transfer of statistical key figures is provided in the standard in personnel cost planning, but there is no sample customizing or data collection methods for common information such as head counts or FullTimeEquivilent figures (FTE). An example is used to describe how statistical key figures can be determined in personnel cost planning and transferred to CO. ...

On-call regulations are often difficult to map in SAP® HCM time management. In the case of on-call duty, many company agreements grant a flat-rate payment for the travel times.…

With the result of the meeting of the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Funds from 17./18.09.2013, the following changes to the DSKK dataset of the DEUEV incoming notifications were decided under points 14 and 15:

Data module DBBG (reporting situation contribution assessment limit)

A new field 'SI days' is introduced, in which the health insurance company informs the employer of the number of SI days that are to be used for the distribution of the wages of the concurrent employee.

Data block DBGZ (reporting issue sliding zone)

The data type is changed for the already existing field 'SI days'. Previously, it was possible to deliver the DBGZ data block without specifying the SI days (SV days = spaces). The field is now defined as numeric. If no specification of the SV days is necessary (in cases where no sliding zone is available), the field 'SV days' is returned with the value '00'.

The changes will come into effect on 01.06.2014. This can only be imported using a support package; a prior correction is not possible. Since this error has existed since the beginning and only affects rare cases, the immediate import can be dispensed with.

When reading tables, the name of the respective table usually has to be known in advance. With a large number of tables, this procedure requires a lot of source code, since a structure (gt_table /gs_structure) of the type of the respective table must be created for each table.

For the conversion to the SEPA procedure, it is usually necessary to convert all infotypes in which a payment method is stored to the new SEPA payment method from a certain date. Infotypes that overlap with the changeover date are copied and provided with the new payment method from the changeover date. The payment method will be changed for future infotypes (start date > changeover date).

In this context, please also note our fixed price offer for the conversion to the SEPA procedure further down in this newsletter.

Since 1.11.12 it has been compulsory for companies in the temporary work sector to pay their temporary workers a surcharge depending on the length of the loan period in the same company. The surcharge increases by up to 50 % as the rental period increases. Depending on the industry, the deadlines, the pay groups entitled to a surcharge and the amounts of the surcharge vary. LM CONSULTING has integrated a largely automated solution into the SAP® standard for a customer in the temporary employment sector. With this solution, it is only necessary to assign the respective customer company (borrowing company) in a customer-specific infotype for the duration of the loan, everything else then happens automatically. If you are interested in this topic, LM CONSULTING offers a customized workshop.

In the standard system, SAP e-Recruiting manages file attachments that can be uploaded to the candidate during the application process. There is no distinction between application-specific attachments such as the cover letter and candidate-specific attachments such as the curriculum vitae.

In this way, the recruiter may see information about a candidate's applications in the candidate profile that the recruiter is not allowed to access.

The project assignment consisted of distinguishing between candidate and application attachments and realizing a separation of the display in the candidate profile of the two types of attachments.

Implementation:

A new subtype for application attachments must be created for infotype 5134 in Customizing. Attachment types are defined below and assigned to the object type ND (applications) and the subtype application attachments.

Some applications in SAP e-Recruiting need to be enhanced. This includes the attachments (to the candidate) and details of the application (recording of the application attachments) areas in the application wizard of the attachments container and in the candidate profile (recruiter view).

Depending on the customer-specific implementation, data overviews for the candidate and the application may have to be adjusted.
