Use

In this IMG activity, you specify the groups of employees for which you want special rules for Web applications to apply. You define rule groups for the following applications:

  • Leave Request in Employee Self-Service (ESS)
  • Team Calendar in Leave Request and Manager Self-Service (MSS)
  • Attendance Overview (MSS)
  • Time Accounts (ESS)
  • Clock-In/Out Corrections (ESS)
  • Approval of Working Times (CATS)(MSS): You need to carry out this activity only if you want to use the Manager Self-Service view group or the Time Manager's Workplace group ID to determine the working times to be approved.

To determine the number of rule groups required, find out how many different groups of employees in your enterprise require different Customizing settings for the above-named applications. It may also be the case that you require only one rule group.

If required, you can form the rule groups on the basis of the Web applications that the employees use. This enables you to form different rule groups for the Leave Request and Team Calendar in Manager Self-Service than for the Clock-In/Out Corrections applications.

Activities

  1. Choose the Create Rule Group activity.
  2. Define the various rule groups that you require and give them easily identifiable names. This will make it easier for you subsequently to find the required rule group in Customizing. If you do not want to group your employees, you need to create at least one rule group, 00000001.
  3. Choose Adjust WEBMO Feature. If required, assign your employees to the defined rule groups based on their organizational assignments. Create at least the rule group 00000001 based on the country indicator, for example.

Example

Your employees can use the Leave Request Web application to submit requests for illness without a doctor's certificate. For employees with a particular organizational assignment, you want the HR department to be informed about the absence directly, whereas for all other employees, the manager's approval is sufficient. In this case, you require two rule groups to store two different workflow templates for the absence type (one with and one without notification to the HR department).

Further notes

In the V_T554S_WEB view Specify Processing Processes for Types of Leave you can also use the Personnel Subarea Grouping for Attendance/Absence Types field (MOABW). You do not therefore have to create any rule group to be able to make separate settings for your personnel subareas.
