In this step, you determine the events that trigger automatic changes in the state of development plan items.

This function allows you to partially automate the state management of items in individual development plans. The function automatically evaluates changes in relevant objects on the basis of predefined events for particular object types.

Note
The events are not related to the validity date of development plan items (the duration specified in an individual development plan). This means that events are not triggered automatically after the duration of a development plan item expires - an appropriate action must have been performed (e.g. a transfer).
The state of a development plan item is also changed if the relevant event is triggered before the end of a validity period.

When an event occurs, the function checks

  1. Whether the objects affected are related to each other via an individual development plan
  2. Whether the state change for the event is Active
  3. Whether the development plan item is in the relevant initial state

If all these conditions are met, the state of a development plan item in the individual development plan affected is changed in the way you have determined.

Example

A person occupies a position as an item in his or her individual development plan. The development plan item accordingly has the state Current. When the person has completed the development plan item, he or she is transferred to his or her original position. The transfer triggers the event S_OLD "Holder leaves position", and this sets the item in the person's individual development plan to Completed.

Requirements

Standard settings

The following events are supplied with the standard system:

State Key    Description

APPR_HISTO    Historically record / close appraisal

EVENT_BOOK    Book business event attendance

EVENT_FIN    Business event follow-up

EVENT_BOOK    Cancel business event attendance

S_DEL    Staffing assignment deleted

S_NEW    Position is restaffed

S_OLD    Holder leaves position

Recommendation

If you do not want to use certain events, please do not delete them - use the Active flag instead.

Activities

  1. If necessary, deactivate events that you do not want to use.
  2. If necessary, change the initial and target state of the events

    Note
    You have to perform this activity if you have changed the standard development plan states, and want to use automatic state management.
