In this step, you define and change careers. Careers are paths within an organizational structure that are generally applicable. Careers are used to depict the principal personnel development paths in a company. Careers can be used as the basis for career and succession planning.

A career is a set of jobs or positions and can extend over all the organizational units in a company. You can create an unlimited number of careers within an organizational structure. One career can contain up to 9999 career items.

Careers are displayed and can be edited using SAP Network Graphics.

Career items are arranged bottom-up. This means that items low down in the hierarchy appear at the bottom and items high up in the hierarchy appear at the top. Career items at the same hierarchy level are displayed beside each other.

Example

Management career
Manager of IT Department
|
System administrator
|
Programmer
|
Trainee

Specialist career
Marketing manager -> Presales manager

Requirements

You must have created jobs and/or positions before you can create careers.

Standard settings

SAP Network Graphics is always started in the user view.

Note
The View menu provides you with several display options. You can temporarily change how a view is displayed by choosing Settings.

Careers are displayed using the CAREERMOD001 graphics profile of the group HRPE. To create a new graphics profile, call up transaction OCNG and choose Network/Hierarchy -> Graphics profile.

Recommendation

It is recommended that you use only jobs when defining careers. This will enable you to keep your careers streamlined and clear, and will mean that the careers you define will not be affected as much by changes in the organizational structure.

Activities

Before you work through any of the activities below:

  1. Specify a plan version
  2. In the Key date field, enter the date on which the changes become valid.

    Note
    The end date of the validity period is always the highest possible system date (12/31/9999).

  3. Choose Program -> Execute.

    The Career Maintenance screen appears.

Creating a career

  1. Choose Career -> Create.

    The Create Career dialog box appears.

  2. Enter a name for the career, and choose Create.

    The Career Maintenancescreen appears. The new career is displayed in the list.

Editing a career

  1. Position the cursor on the career you want to edit.

    Note
    The symbol behind the career name shows you whether career items have already been defined for the career in question.

  2. Choose Career -> Edit.

    SAP Network Graphics are started and the Edit Career Items screen appears.

  3. To insert a new career item, select a job or position in the Node area by clicking once on the job or position symbol.
  4. In the display area, position the cursor at the point where you want to insert the career item, and click once.

    If you selected a 'job', the Possible Entries via... dialog box appears.

    If you selected a position, the Select Position dialog box appears.

  5. In both cases, select a career item in the dialog box, and choose Select.

    The system inserts the new career item.

    Note
    If you notice that the display is not correct afterwards, do one of the following:

    1. Choose Edit -> Redraw.
    2. Choose View -> Align.
  6. Save the career.
