In this step, you define and edit development plans. The development plan catalog contains all the development plans that are of interest to an organization.

In the development plan catalog, you can create and manage generally applicable development plans, and use these as copy templates for measures within individual development plans.

  • A development plan group can contain development plans and further development plan groups. Development plan groups are used to structure the catalog logically.
  • A development plan contains a sequence of subactivities (items). In the standard system, you can include objects of the following object types as items in a development plan:
    • Business event type
    • Job
    • Position
    • Organizational unit
    • Work center
    • Location

You can store the following information for each development plan:

  • Duration of individual items
  • Notes for each item
  • Sequence of items (steps)
  • Whether an item is mandatory
  • Whether a specific number of items within a step are mandatory (e.g. at least two of the four items in a step must be completed)
  • The qualifications that result from a development plan (see below)

A translation function has been provided so that you can work with the development plan catalog in different languages.

Development plans are displayed and edited in SAP Network Graphics.
