Use

Until now, in the portal, a manager used Personnel Change Requests to initiate processes for changing employee data.

Now the new service and form application HR Administrative Services is available for such processes. This application is more flexible and allows you to convert much more complex processes more quickly.

In mySAP ERP 2005, HR Administrative Services and Personnel Change Requests are available in parallel and are supported. In future releases, the standard delivery will concentrate on HR Administrative Services. Personnel Change Requests are available in mySAP ERP 2005 for the last time in the standard delivery.

As the HR Administrative Services are already available with mySAP ERP 2005, we highly recommend that in mySAP ERP 2005 you implement processses for changing employee data using HR Administrative Services.

The HR Administrative Services have the following advantages:

  • The new portal role HR Administrator is available and you can include it in your processes within HR Administrative Services.
  • Within a form-based process, every portal role (Employee Self-Service, Manager Self-Service, HR Administrator and others) can start the process or edit one of the process steps.
  • You can also implement very complex processes. The processes can include an unlimited number of steps and use an unlimited number of forms.
  • The process modeling is more flexible as it uses more SAP Business Workflow functions. The standard delivery contains preconfigured workflow templates and standard tasks that you can easily modify.
  • You can track the processes.
  • You can version the forms.
  • The new functions Save Draft and Cancel are available for the processes.
  • Extensive Customizing settings are available for the form logic and back-end functions. This also includes input help, standard values and checks for consistency. In most cases, you do not need to define any coding for these functions.
  • A service for changing HR master data is available in the portal. You can configure the service so that it automatically saves data in the back-end system on the database, on the basis of the business logic of HR Administration.
  • You can define attachments and links for the forms.
  • The processes are integrated with the Digital Personnel File (DPF). This means that you can automatically store the documents created during a process in the DPF.
