Customizing procedures
In this chapter, system will be set up so that a large part of the work processes used in the enterprise are
reflected in the HR System.
For example, we can determine which infotypes are to be proposed as defaults when a person is hired or
if an employee's organizational assignment changes.
In the HR System, hiring is considered to be a personnel action; one can define and describe personnel
actions as per requirement of an organization.
One can set up own menus as per requirement.
One can initiate actions so that they depend on the existence of certain infotypes and/or their contents.
Actions
In this chapter, personnel actions together with the possible reasons are defined and the work contents
and the choice of actions for the administrator.

Dynamic Actions
Configuration is done to control the initiation of actions when maintaining an infotype record.
This can be the maintenance of an additional infotype record or performing a routine.
For each action, it can be determined whether it is always carried out when changes made an infotype or
a subtype or whether it is only carried out if changes made to certain fields.
Settings can be made to specify whether the action is to be carried out for "Change", "Create" and/or
"Delete" record.
We can also specify default values for a record that is to be created.

RECRUITMENT
The ability to meet personnel requirements is key for enterprises. The success of an
enterprise depends on such factors as the quality and availability of personnel. It is
particularly important for the development and success of expanding enterprises
that they have quick access to adequate personnel.
This component has all the functions needed for working through the entire
recruitment procedure, from creating applicant data to filling vacant positions.
The Recruitment component contains an entire range of powerful, flexible functions
that can be used to implement an effective and largely automated recruitment
strategy.
The Recruitment component can be used to recruit human resources according to
requirements, at any time. Applicants data can be stored that have not deemed
suitable for a particular vacancy in the Applicant Pool, where they can be
considered for other or future vacancies.
This component enables to define a recruitment procedure that suits the needs of
enterprise. Tasks can be distributed and responsibilities can be fixed to different
people, involved in the recruitment process. Recruitment supports in dividing and
assigning administrative and decision-making task areas. Many tasks can be
processed via mass processing.
The Recruitment component provides dynamic actions to enable to automate many
processes. For example, when initial data for applicant is entered, the system
creates a confirmation of receipt in the form of an applicant activity and a letter
confirming receipt of application. This reduces the administrative tasks required of
the HR department for applicant correspondence.
46

Workforce Requirements and Advertising
The Recruitment component enables to document workforce requirements and the way it is
been advertised in the SAP system.
A company's workforce requirements are represented in the Workforce. Requirements and
Advertising component by means of vacancies. A vacancy is a description of a position that
must be staffed, either completely or partially. The recruitment process is triggered by the
creation of a vacancy. The recruitment procedure is initiated by the creation of a vacancy, and
its purpose is to fill vacancies. Vacancies are published in advertisements.
If a candidate applies for a job in response to an advertisement, he or she must be assigned to
this advertisement during the initial entry of basic data phase. By assigning an applicant to an
advertisement here, the system can propose a likely vacancy assignment for the applicant. This
proposed vacancy assignment can be overwritten if unsuitable. Assignment of an unsolicited
applicant to a vacancy depends solely on the decisions of the personnel officer or line manager
responsible. For this reason, default values cannot be proposed here.
If the candidate has applied in response to an advertisement, he / she must be assigned to a
recruitment instrument and a medium using the advertisement. This assignment means that you
can analyze the effectiveness of the recruitment instruments and media used by company.
In this section, all the necessary system settings are done for the administration of workforce
requirements and advertising.
47

Create media
In this step we create the media used by company.
The medium serves two purposes in Recruitment:
It is used to classify all recruitment instruments.
For example, the recruitment instruments "Washington Post" and "New York Times" are
classified under the medium "Press".
The applicant class is an attribute of the medium and indicates whether a medium is used to
attract internal or external applicants.

In this step, the recruitment instruments, which company uses, are being
configured.
Every job advertisement is published in a recruitment instrument.
Recruitment instruments are classified according to the media used.
We can store a contact name and address key for each recruitment
instrument. The address key can be used to store the address (of a contact)
for a recruitment instrument in step "Create addresses for recruitment

Applicant Administration
This component is used to coordinate and monitor all the steps involved in applicant
administration. The two-tiered data entry concept provides a fast and easy way to enter and
structure unsolicited applications, and applications in response to a specific advertisement.
Create Personnel Officer
In this step we create company's personnel officers.
Personnel officers process the applications assigned to them according to
their authorization from the Personnel Department.
Personnel officers for Recruitment must be created as part of administrator
group APPL. We can use an ID of our choice for the personnel officer.

Applicant range.
Internal applicants are those employed by the company on the date that the job application is
received. External applicants are those not employed by the company on this date. This latter
grouping can therefore also include former employees of the company.
The procedure for entering data is different for internal and external applicants. We have to
manually enter all required data on external applicants. When dealing with internal applicants,
however, we can import data such as name and address simply by specifying the candidate's
personnel number. We can overwrite this data, if necessary.
Both internal and external applicants can submit unsolicited applications, or apply in response to
an advertisement. We need to assign applicants who file an unsolicited application to an
unsolicited application group during initial data entry. An unsolicited application group is a user-
definable criterion for use in structuring unsolicited applications.
An applicant group is used to group together applicants on the basis of the type of work
relationship for which they have applied (for example, employees with a permanent contract,
employees with a temporary contract, freelance workers, and so on). The applicant class is a
characteristic of the applicant group. The applicant class indicates whether the applicant is
internal (applicant class P) or external (applicant class AP).
The applicant range is another user-definable criterion used for classifying applicants. Generally
speaking, it classifies applicants on the basis of either hierarchical or functional criteria.
Classifying the applicants hierarchically involves dividing them into groups, such as executive
employees, salaried employees, skilled workers, and so on. Functional classification involves
dividing them according to areas of employment, such as executive board, administration
department, production, and so on.

Applicant Selection
Applicant Activities
In the Recruitment component, applicant activities are used to enter, log, and plan all the tasks
performed for an applicant during the selection procedure. Applicant activities are administrative
stages through which an applicant passes during the course of the application procedure.
The following characteristics are among those used to identify an applicant activity:
Activity type
The activity type denotes the activity that is to be carried out for an applicant (e.g. Mail
confirmation of receipt, Mail invitation to interview, Appointment for interview).
Activity status
The activity status indicates whether the activity has already been performed for an
applicant (completed) or is still to be performed (planned).
Performance date
For planned activities, the performance date indicates the date by or on which the
activity is to be carried out; for completed activities it indicates the date on which they
were actually carried out.
Person responsible for activity
This employee is responsible for ensuring that the activity is carried out on or by the
deadline specified, and may be responsible for carrying it out him/herself.

Time Management
The Time Management component offers the support in performing all human
resources processes involving the planning, recording, and valuation of internal and
external employees work performed and absence times.
Time Management has user-oriented interfaces that support centralized and
decentralized entry and administration of time and labor data. Data can be
processed centrally by administrators in the human resources department or else in
individual departments by time administrators such as supervisors, secretaries, and
employees themselves.

Public Holiday Calendar
The public holiday calendar plays an important role in the Human Resources
modules. It affects the definition of the organizational structure of the enterprise
and plays a central role in the scheduling process as well in generating monthly
work schedules.
The public holiday calendar is based on an actual year and allows you to apply your working time models
to a specific time period.
It is essential to use the public holiday calendar for recording your employees attendances and
absences: the payroll program can only be run correctly if Sundays and public holidays and so on are
taken into account.
Create Public Holiday Calendar
The public holiday calendar is created on the basis of the regional and national holidays that are valid for
your personnel areas and subareas. Company-specific days off for the festivals can also be entered in
the calendar. All National and Festival Holidays for different Locations can be created in the system and
assigned to the holiday calendar.
Create Public Holiday Calendars
In this step create the public holiday calendars for locations and assign the public holidays to these
calendars.

Work Schedules
With this component, the settings required for creating work schedules for the employees in the
enterprise can be made. Work schedules are shift schedules which must be generated for all employees,
even those with a set working time (salaried employees) or flextime. A work schedule consists of several
different elements. Elements of the work schedule include daily work schedules, period work schedules,
and work schedule rules.
Work schedules can be defined with flextime models or rotating shifts for particular organizational units. It
can also set up the legislative regulations, collective agreements and internal company policies that
stipulate employee working time in the system.
Personnel Subarea Groupings
Personnel subarea groupings are used to group the employees for work schedule rules based on the
personnel subareas / locations.
Group Personnel Subareas for the Work Schedule
In this step, group the personnel areas and personnel subareas for work schedules.

Daily Work Schedules
The daily work schedule determines the structure of working times in the enterprise at the daily level. Also
actual normal working conditions can be defined and those that differ from externally or internally
determined daily working times. In this way, sets of working times can be defined for specific set of
employees.
The planned working time specified in a daily work schedule is the basis for payment calculation of actual
working times that are relevant for payroll, as well as the valuation of attendances and absences.
The daily work schedule, along with Break Schedules, comprise of the working times for a particular day.
The break rules in the work schedule for any particular working day can be defied and can be assigned to
a personnel sub area grouping for work schedules. This grouping enables to assign a break schedule to
as many of the groupings daily work schedules as we want, thereby achieving maximum flexibility in
combining all elements of the daily work schedule.
Define Break Schedules
In this step, define work break schedules for the enterprise. We can specify exactly when breaks may be
taken within the daily work schedule, and whether they are paid or unpaid.

Period Work Schedules
The period work schedule consists of a defined sequence of daily work schedules. It reflects a work
pattern that is repeated after a defined period of time. Period work schedules can extend over one week,
several weeks, or a period that is not divisible by seven.
Period work schedule can be created for any length of time: The period work schedule can provide the
working time model for one week, as do flextime models, or for an entire year.
Period work schedules can also be created for longer term working models, such as those that cover the
entire year. The week number distinguishes between the individual elements of a period.
Define Period Work Schedules
In this step, the period work schedules are created by specifying the sequence of daily work schedules for
a work schedule for one or more weeks.

Work Schedule Rules and Work Schedules
A work schedule rule is a precise description of the work schedule that specifies the working times of a
group of employees.
76

A work schedule rule is assigned a period work schedule, which in turn is made up of daily work
schedules. Rotating shifts are set up by assigning a period work schedule to several work schedule rules.
Work schedules are not stored all at once, but stored for each month. The work schedule is created
regardless of the length of the period work schedule and is not person-specific.
Define Employee Subgroup Groupings
The employee subgroup grouping for work schedules allows us to group several employee subgroups
and base their work schedules on the same rules.

Generate Work Schedules Manually
Work schedules can be generated in this step. The existing work schedules can also be changed or
deleted.
Create all function can be used to generate for more than a month. The function can be called via the
'Edit' menu option.
If the work schedules need to be created from January through December of a particular year, December
of the previous year and January of the following year must be included.
"Create" function can be used to generate the monthly work schedule one month at a time (with
confirmation). the "Create all" function can be used to generate the work schedule for the required period
without confirmation.
SAP R/3 Role
Menu
> Generate Work Schedules Manually

The Planned Working Time infotype (0007) allows us to enter a work schedule to define individual
working times for employees. It also allows store the time management status for that employee.
The time management status specifies whether an employee participates in time evaluation, and if so,
which form.
The following are possible values for the time management status:
0 No time evaluation
80

1 Time evaluation - actual times
2 Time evaluation - PDC
7 Time evaluation without payroll integration
8 External services
9 Time evaluation - planned times

Set Default Value for Time Management Status
In this step a feature is used to create a default value for the time management status in the Planned
Working Time infotype. This default value is proposed when we create an infotype record. It can be
determined on the basis of an employee's organizational assignment.

Time Data Recording and Administration
The time structures in the company can be represented using working time models, the calendar, and by
maintaining the Time Management infotypes. These options allow us to enter all time data and related
information for your employees. This time data includes attendance and absence times, availability times,
and overtime, for example.
With this component, all the necessary settings can be made to allow the recording of working times for
individual employees. This includes absences such as illness, leave, substitutions, overtime, and so on.
A status for Time Management is defined which indicates whether all attendances are recorded for an
employee, or only exceptions to the work schedule.
It is also determined that how the system should react if working time data is entered which overlaps with
existing data (for example, if an illness record overlaps with a leave record).
Absence Catalog
Absences are paid or unpaid planned working times during which the employee has not worked. They
therefore represent a deviation to the employee's work schedule. Information required for defining and
recording absences can be stored in this area.
In this section, the settings required for recording and processing absences are made.
Group Personnel Subareas for Attendances and Absences
In this step, personnel areas and subareas are grouped for attendance and absence types.
For example, if the same attendance and absence types are to be assigned to personnel subareas 01
and 02, same grouping for these both personnel areas needs to be defined.

Determine Entry Screens and Time Constraint Classes

Use the data entry screen number for an absence to determine which screen (entry screen) is used to
enter, display and maintain a record of this particular absence type.
The time constraint class controls the system reaction if a new record in the Absences infotype (2001)
overlaps with existing time infotype records.
In the standard system, the following numbers are allocated to the screens:
1. 2000 - General absence
This screen is used for all absences which do not require special processing (such as paid leave of
absence for getting married).
2. 2001 - Quota deduction
This screen is used for entering data on leave or time in lieu of overtime.
3. 2002 - Work incapacity
84

Use this screen for all absence types where continued pay should be taken into account automatically by
the system.
4. Special screens have been developed for the following absence types:
2003 - Maternity protection, parental leave
2004 - Military and non-military service
2005 - Work incapacity (Netherlands)

Absence Counting
When an attendance/absence is recorded, the system refers to the planned working hours in the
employee's daily work schedule to calculate the attendance/absence hours. This is not always desirable.
There are times when the special regulations for counting attendances and absences need to be applied,
such as:
on specific days (public holidays, weekdays)
85

for specific attendance and absence types
for specific daily and period work schedules

The daily duration of an absence can be counted according to the rules which are defined in this section.
Thus, it can valuate the duration of attendances/absences differently depending on business
requirements.

Managing Time Accounts Using Attendance/Absence
Quotas
An Absence quota specifies an employee's entitlement to time off for a limited period. It is dependent on
an absence quota type.
The Absence Quotas infotype (2006) can be used to manage all employees' time off entitlements and
leave types. The infotype's special functions ensure that an employee can only claim the leave days
stipulated in the contract as the absence type Leave.
When an absence is recorded in the Absences infotype, the system checks whether the employee
possesses sufficient time off entitlement.
An Attendance quota specifies a limited period in which an employee has approval for certain activities. It
is dependent on an attendance quota type.
Time quotas (time off entitlements and attendance approvals) can be grouped or refined according to the
following factors:
Employee subgroups for time quotas (type of employee)
Personnel subareas for time quotas (where is the employee assigned?)
If time evaluation is used: Personnel subareas for time recording (time type determination)
For generating absence quotas: quota type selection rule group (which conditions and rules apply
when absence quotas are generated)
In this section, employee subgroup grouping and the personnel subareas are grouped together based on
the time quota types permitted.
In this step, employee subgroups for time quota types are grouped.
Employee subgroups for which the same attendance and absence quota types are defined are assigned
to the same grouping for time quota types

WAGE TYPE STRUCTURE
Wage types for Basic Pay Infotype (0008)
Earnings and deductions of an Employee are represented in SAP as Wagetypes.
In other words, Wagetypes are the payroll and personnel administration objects used to differentiate
between monetary or time units, which are used in different ways to calculate Employees Remuneration.
The name range reserved for the customer Wagetypes has been described by SAP. The entire customer
Wagetypes should begin with a number.
Hence, all the Wagetypes configured for Cairn Energys Payroll System start with a number.
Create / Copy wage types
We create the wage types for the Infotype Basic Pay (0008) by copying the model
wage types in the standard SAP system.

PAYROLL SCHEMA AND PERSONNEL
CALCULATION RULES

Payroll Schema
The payroll schema contains calculation rules to be used by the payroll driver
during payroll. SAP has developed country-specific schemas.
A schema consists of Personnel Calculation Rules, Operations and Functions. A
schema performs the following:
Imports required Infotypes
Updates the databases
Gross calculation of pay
Processes basic data and time data
155

Reads payroll account of the last period accounted
Processes time data and calculates the individual gross values
Performs factoring
Net calculation of pay

The following table shows the modified schema for Cairn Energy Payroll system:

Schema Text of the Schema
ZN00 Payroll Schema_Cairn Energy_ Nationals

New requirement W.e.f. 01st Apr, 09

Requirement:
In accordance with the provisions of Income Tax under u/s 10(14) read with rule
2BB, location allowance of an employee working at Barmer site is eligible for
income tax exemption @ Rs. 1000 per month as Compensatory Modified Field Area
Allowance.
Solution:
We planned to use INCTX function for this exemption.
We have created one wage type 5LOC (Location allowance) from M200. Eligibility is
getting varied from grade to grade for this allowance. (ExampleRs.5000 to 10000
per month). As per the requirement, we have to configure this wage type for
exemption of Rs.1000 per month u/s 10.

In V_T7INA9, we maintained this wage type and mentioned that it is Allowance.
In V_T7INT9, we mapped the Standard Tax code SLOC to the wage type 1LOC and
mentioned the frequency as Monthly & Exemption amount as Rs. 1000.

In T591A, we have copied the standard subtype SEXM and named the subtype as
SLOC Generic Tax exemption and in the T7INT7, the tax code as SLOC Generic
Tax exemption.

5LOC Wage type is maintained in the Infotype 0008 & Exemption for the month
April 09 in Infotype 0582 as Rs. 1100 against the subtype SLOC.

We copied annual & monthly customer specific exemption wage types MCAX &
MCMX and created as 1LAX & 1LMX.

In Schema, it is maintained as INCTX SLOX 1LAX A 1LMX
156

Since we maintained the maximum limit as Rs.1000 in V_T7INT9, System considers
only Rs. 1000 but In 0582 Infotype, exemption amount entered for the month of
April 09 is Rs.1100.

In May 09, we entered Rs. 300, so the system automatically projects the value and
display the annual exemption as Rs.4300.
Schema ZN00
Schema ZN00 is used for Cairn energy nation employees Payroll run.

Personnel calculation Rules

Personnel Calculation Rule is an instruction to execute defined tasks in Time
Management and Payroll. Personnel calculation rules consist of one or more
operations. They have a decision tree structure.

A personnel calculation rule may contain one or more sub areas.

A personnel calculation rule is a type of work instruction that checks the existing
conditions and executes individual actions.

The country-specific payroll module by SAP takes the statutory and administrative
regulations of a country into account and designs the Payroll schemas and
Personnel calculation rules.

Since each country payroll has a modular structure, we can use the Customizing functions/Rules to
quickly modify the payroll procedure to meet the particular requirements of an enterprise.

On this way, we have designed the following customer specific Personnel Calculation rules to suit the
requirements of the Payroll module of Cairn Energy:

Rule Text of the Personnel Calculation Rule
ZEDL HR-IN: Employer EDLI contrib. as 0.005% (0.01) and multiply by 1lakh

Simulation Run Payroll
We can simulate payroll for individual employees before performing the regular
payroll run for all the employees in an enterprise.
If we have made any changes to an employees master data, which may lead to
far-reaching changes in his or her payroll results, stimulation comes into play.
In this way, we can recognize sources of errors in time to make corrections before
the regular payroll run.
We can even simulate payroll for individual employees at any time during the
regular payroll process, in order to trace the cause of any errors.
A simulation run corresponds to a regular payroll run with the following restrictions:

The results of a simulated payroll run are not saved on the data base. We
can view and print the results in the payroll log.
The system does not lock any master data.
The current payroll period in the payroll control record is not changed.
The steps Release payroll and Exit payroll do not apply.

315

2. Choose Yes.
We can run payroll for this payroll area.
The system has increased the period number in the payroll control record for the
payroll area by 1. The payroll control record is used to lock the personnel numbers
in the payroll area for changes to the master and time data reflecting the past and
present.

Start Payroll (Live Payroll)
We have released the payroll area or areas for which we want to run payroll.
Path:-
Asia / Pacific India Payroll Accounting Start Payroll in the SAP menu.
We can access the selection screen of the payroll program as shown in the
Step Simulation Payroll.
2. Enter the data required.
The current period indicator is set in the Payroll period group.
Depending on the payroll area specified, the system reads the current
period from the payroll control record.
317

If we flag Display log, we get a detailed payroll log after the payroll run.
The Test run (no update) indicator must not be flagged because
otherwise the system will not save the payroll results.
3. Choose Program Execute button.
The system performs payroll (usually in the background). If errors
occur, we will get a list with the relevant error messages after payroll.
Use the error messages to check whether personnel numbers have been
rejected or not selected.
If personnel numbers are rejected or not selected, we must not exit the
payroll program. We must correct the master and time data (Infotype) for
the relevant employee and finally perform a correction run.
Displaying the Payroll Log

The payroll log gives us clear and detailed information on the payroll run and its
results. It is divided into different levels that we can display depending on the
amount of detail required.

The General data level gives information on the processed data and shows the
payroll schema used by the system.
The Successful personnel numbers and Rejected personnel numbers include
processing of the schema for each personnel number

Navigation in the log tree.

To display lower levels, click on the structure node belonging to the level that
we wish to open. To display all levels behind a higher level, place the cursor
on the relevant level and choose Expand.

Old log
If we use customer functions with their own logs, we can display these logs
by clicking on the Old log pushbutton.

We access the selection screen of the payroll program as shown in the step
Simulation Payroll
2. Enter the data required.
The current period indicator is set in the Payroll period group. Depending
on the payroll area specified, the system reads the current period from
the payroll control record.

otherwise the system will not save the payroll results.
320

3. Choose Program Execute button.
The system performs payroll (usually in the background). If errors occur,
we will get a list with the relevant error messages after payroll.
Use the error messages to check whether personnel numbers have been
rejected or not selected.
Simulating a Posting Run
We recommend that we simulate a posting run both before and after completing
(Exit Payroll) payroll. In this way, we can recognize posting-relevant errors in the
payroll results early on, and avoid errors when creating a live posting run.
We can repeat simulation of posting runs as often as we require, as this does not,
unlike creating a live posting run, lead to the payroll results being selected.
Note: - The detailed explanation has been provided in the section posting to
Accounts User Manual.
Exiting Payroll
We have made all master data corrections, have run payroll for all the employees of
the Payroll Area with out errors.
Path:-
Asia/Pacific IndiaPayroll AccountingExit Payroll, form the SAP menu.
Screenshot:

2. Choose Yes
When we exit payroll, payroll is finished for all the personnel numbers in the payroll
area and the payroll period is complete.
321

If we want to exit the payroll run for several payroll areas, it is easier to use
the payroll control record. To do so, proceed as when releasing several
payroll areas.
If we exit payroll using the payroll control record, we can simultaneously
change the earliest possible retroactive accounting period for the relevant
payroll area.

As long as we have not performed the payroll run without errors, it is not
suggestible to change the earliest possible retroactive accounting period. For
this reason, we can only make entries in this field in the payroll control
record after we have chosen End of payroll and before we save the payroll
control record.

Display Payroll Results

We can use report H99_DISPLAY_PAYRESULT (Display Payroll Results) to display
the payroll results for one or several personnel numbers.

Path:-
Asia/Pacific India utilitiesCluster display from the SAP menu.

display the tables for a payroll result, select this payroll result and choose
Display Overview. The system displays the overview of all tables of the
payroll result that are relevant to the country of the employee, and the
number of entries per table.
Remuneration Statement
In the Remuneration Statement, SAP R/3 lists amounts and information for the
employee per payroll period. This includes, for example:
Gross amount (for example, payments)
Net amount (for example, after deductions)
Outgoing payment (for example, bank transfer)
Additional information (for example, organizational assignment, leave,
notes to the employee)

1. We can access the Pay slip, directly while running payroll, using Payroll Driver.

2. After Payroll run and exiting the payroll run, we can generate the Remuneration
Statement.

Double-clicking on a sub-schema will take you to the maintenance screen for that schema.
Double-clicking on any of the rules (PCR's) will take you to the rule editor. You can tell the difference between sub-
schemas a rules by looking at the parameters. The name of the sub-schema can be found in the Par 1 column. The
main schema generally calls all the different sub-schemas. The sub-schemas will then call the payroll rules. In most
cases, when a rule is called, there will be parameters in the Par 2 or Par 3 columns.
In the main, most sub-schemas are called by the "copy" command.
Schemas, rules and features in SAP use the following line editor commands. This allows you to move, delete, copy
and insert lines. All the commands are entered in the area used for the line numbers. Overwrite any of the numbers
with the commands shown below. For the commands using 1 letter - hit the return key once you have entered the
letter. For the commands using 2 letters - hit the return key after the first 2 letters have been entered or after both
sets have been entered.
The most commonly used commands are:
Line Command Description
D Deletes a line
I Inserts a line
M Moves a line
C Copies a line
DD Indicates the start of a block to be deleted
DD Indicates the end of a block to be deleted
CC Indicates the start of a block to be copied
CC Indicates the end of a block to be copied
MM Indicates the start of a block to be moved
MM Indicates the end of a block to be moved
Once you have chosen the block to move or copy, you need to show where to move or copy it to in the schema. The
following commands indicate where you can copy or move the lines to.
Line Command Description
A Places the block after the chosen line
B Places the block before the chosen line
Remember when calling the PCR from the schema: GEN means that the wagetype is **** i.e. you haven't specified
one and NOAB means that it will look at any EE Sub-Grouping. If you want the rule to use specific wage types or
groupings, then leave either blank.
Use the print option and VAR (PAR 2) in the schema to output the variable table during processing.
325

Position is very important for schemas. Look to see where a similar piece of processing has taken place. If in doubt,
place the rule after the similar data has been read and processed.
Commonly used Functions

components to be installed. It links to all other documents that are required for the
implementation of a specific scenario. (http://service.sap.com/erp-inst)

375

1.1.3 . User Administration

IMG Path : SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> User Administration
Description: This IMG activity is used for creation and maintenance of ERecruiting specific users, roles
and
User categories. The logical sequence is
- Creation of authorization profiles/roles
- Creation of ERecruiting specific special users
- Assignment of authorization profiles to reference users
- Assignment of reference users to each ERecruiting end user in SU01.
- Optionally, grouping the internal end users in user categories.

2.1. Creation of Authorisation Profiles

IMG Path : SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> User Administration -> Create User
Profiles
Transaction: PFCG

All ERecruiting specific standard roles have prefix as SAP_RCF.
Copy the standard roles provided by SAP to custom roles. This is done to keep the standard roles
untouched and refer at a later stage in case of issues in the custom roles.

We have configured the roles with prefix as ZER.

376

We are using roles ZER_RECRUITER_EHP4 and ZER_BUSINESS_ADMIN_EHP4 for recruiter and
administrator respectively instead of roles ZER_BUSINESS_ADMINISTRATOR and ZER_RECRUITER which
become obsolete on activation of WebDynpro versions in EhP4.
2.2. Creation of Special users
IMG Path : SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> User Administration -> Create Special
Users
Transaction: SU01
Users can be grouped in 3 categories:
1. Reference users
2. Communication Users
3. Service Users
4. System users
Reference users are used as templates for assigning security authorizations. They are not dialog users
but are assigned to dialog users. The dialog users inherit all authorizations of the assigned reference
user.
Communication users are used for remote communication between 2 systems. These are not dialog
users and must be used purely for communication purposes in the system.
In ERecruiting framework, communication users are used for connecting ERecruiting system and the
Content Server.
Service Users enables system access for unnamed users. In e-recruiting these are used for unregistered
candidates (e.g., RCF_UNREG). Certain BSP/Webdynpro services are accessible to candidates who are
not registered applicants. For such services, the service user RCF_UNREG is assigned against username
in transaction SICF. This eliminates the need to key in username password when the service is
instantiated on the internet.
System Users
System users are required during the execution of specific SAP processes. ERecruiting requires system
users in the form of workflow user WF-BATCH. All background workflow tasks are executed using the
WF-BATCH id.
377

Special users do not exist in the standard system. They need to be created.
Reference User User Type Role to be assigned Role Description
RCF_ADMIN Reference ZER_BUSINESS_ADMIN_EHP4 Administrator
RCF_CONTENT Communication ZER_CONTENT_SERVER Access to Search Engine
RCF_CAND_EXT Reference ZER_EXTERNAL_CANDIDATE External Candidate
RCF_CAND_INT Reference ZER_INTERNAL_CANDIDATE Internal Candidate
RCF_MANAGER Reference ZER_MANAGER Manager
RCF_RECRUIT Reference ZER_RECRUITER_EHP4 Recruiter
RCF_REQUEST Reference ZER_REQUISITION_REQUESTER Requester (not used)
RCF_TC Reference ZER_TALENT_CONSULTANT Talent Consultant (not used)
RCF_UNREG Service ZER_UNREGISTERED_CANDIDATE Unregistered Candidate
Creation of Sample Reference User RCF_CAND_INT is shown below:
Go to SU01, enter RCF_CAND_INT in User field and click the New icon.

Enter the required details.

378

Select the User Type as Reference. Also enter the password.
For reference users, once the password is set, it shows a Deactivated status as shown below:

Assign the custom internal candidate role created in the above step.

379

Similarly, create other reference users.
2.3. Define Roles in ERecruiting
IMG Path : SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> User Administration -> Create Special
Users
View: T77RCF_ROLE
Here we map the special users against the user categories to be used.

380

The reference users need to have exactly same name as above. In case of a requirement which
demands a different reference username, the names in the Reference User column should be
updated accordingly.

381

1.1.4 3. Business Partner Configuration

The component SAP Business Partner enables you to create and manage business partners centrally.
You can create a business partner in different business partner roles, and during the course of the
business relationship the business partner can assume other business partner roles. No new data has to
be created each time, meaning that redundant data creation and retention is avoided, and there can
be no inconsistencies.

In E-Recruiting, the Business Partner concept is used for maintaining personal data of all entities
involved (candidates -> employees -> candidates) and for the addresses of the various branches of your
company.

IMG Path: SPRO -> IMG ->Cross Application Components -> SAP Business Partner

382

3.1. Define Business Partner Roles
IMG Path : SPRO -> Cross-Application Components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business Partner ->
Basic
Settings -> Business Partner Roles -> Define BP Roles
View Cluster: BUPA_TB003
Description : In this IMG activity, you define business partner roles and its attributes. These attributes
show
effect in transaction BP used for business partner maintenance.

The roles that need to be configured are:
1. BUP003
2. RCFAGY
3. RCFBRA
4. RCFVEN

BUP003
383

To configure, choose the row and click on the detail icon .
The fields that need to be entered for each role are:
1. BP Role Cat.
2. Std. Assignment BP Role > BP Role Cat.
3. BP View

The values in these fields should be:
1. BP Role Cat. Same as BP Role (in this case, BUP003)
2. Std. Assignment BP Role > BP Role Cat. Should be Checked.
3. BP View - Same as BP Role
384

Follow the same procedure for remaining business partner roles.
3.2. Define Number Ranges for Business Partners
IMG Path : SPRO -> Cross Application Components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business
Partner -> Basic Settings -> Number Ranges and Groupings -> Define Number Ranges
Transaction: BUCF
Description : Here, you maintain the number ranges for business partners. Two number ranges, one
each for
internal and external number range should be defined. The external number range is
required
for business partners transferred from external systems.
No changes are required here. We are using the SAP delivered standard settings.

Ensure that the current number is set to 0.

385

3.3. Define Groupings and Assign Number Ranges
IMG Path : SPRO -> Cross Application Components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business Partner -> Basic
Settings -> Number Ranges and Groups -> Define Groupings and Assign Number Ranges.
View : V_TB001
Description: The number range grouping determines the number range to be used during business
partner
number generation.

Standard SAP delivered settings are used. No changes required.
3.4. Address Determination
IMG Path: SPRO -> IMG -> Cross Application Components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business Partner ->
Basic
Settings -> Address Determination
Description: Address determination describes the procedure with which the system identifies the
business partner address that is used in a particular business transaction.

The following steps are carried out consecutively until an address is found:
1. If there is a fixed address for a particular object (e.g. contract account in FI-CA) and
this
address still exists, it is used.
2. If an address type is assigned to the BP role in the implementation guide (IMG), and at
least
one address usage for it has been created, the standard usage for this address type
will be
used.
3. In all other cases, the standard address of the business partner is used.
386

Define Transactions
XXDFLT is the standard SAP delivered entry. No changes are required.

Define Address Types:
XXDEFAULT is the standard SAP delivered entry. No changes are required.

387

Assign Transaction to Address Type:
Assign the address type XXDEFAULT to transaction XXDFLT.

3.5. Forms of Address
IMG Path : SPRO -> IMG -> Cross Application Components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business
Partner -> Basic Settings -> Forms of Address.
View : V_TSAD3
Description: In this node, you maintain the forms of address for business partners.

These entries should be in line with the forms-of-address of Personnel Administration.
3.6. Data Origin
Partner -> Basic Settings -> Data Origin
View : V_TB005
Description: The data origin type determines how the business partner data comes into the system.

388

Add the entry 0004 as shown below:

3.7. Name Formatting Rules
Partner -> Persons -> Maintain Name Formatting Rules
View Cluster: NAMEFORMAT
Description : For business partners that belong to the category 'natural persons' the name components
are
stored in several different fields. Country-specific rules can be applied to format the
name components. If you do not state any specific rule, the standard setting applies.

389

We will be using Country IN and Format as 01.

The components of this name format are organized as
<Form of address> <first name> <middle initial> <last name>

Position should be in numeric integers. The order given in the "Position" determines how the name of
the business partner (candidate) will be concatenated in the system.

NOTE: 1. This transaction also should be done in both the HR and the E Recruitment systems, in
separate instance scenario.
2. This is a mandatory technical setup for ALE data transfer and must be done before
doing the first ALE run from HR system to E-Recruitment system.
390

3.8. Marital Status
IMG Path: SPRO -> IMG -> Cross Application Components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business
Partner -> Persons -> Marital Statuses -> Maintain Marital Status
View : TB027
Description: Here you maintain the marital statuses for business partners

This completes the E Recruitment related configuration of Business Partners
391

1.1.5 4. Workflow Configuration
4.1. Workflow Auto-Customizing
Transaction: SWU3
Description : The activities performed in this transaction must be executed so that workflows can be
executed. It provides a runtime environment to all workflows in the client.
Important: The user performing auto-customizing must have SAP_ALL authorizations and must belong
to SUPER user group.

Click Configure RFC Destination and click

The user WF-BATCH, if does not exist, is auto created with same authorizations as the current user.
Enter the password and click .
Now, click the main node in the tree Maintain Runtime Environment and click Generate.
The tree now appears as below:
392

To activate individual nodes, click on the node and press .
Similarly, execute all the nodes. Finally the status should be as follows:

393

The node Check Entries from HR Control Tables will initially show the following error.

To eliminate the errors, execute the report RHSOBJCH. Execution of the report will yield following kind
of output.
394

Select all the entries and click Adjust. Exit the report and try re-executing it.
Output should look as below:

Now refresh/execute the Check Entries from HR Control Tables node in SWU3. It should have
against it.
4.2. Activate Event Linkages

IMG Path : SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> Workflow
Description: This node lists all the ERecruiting workflows that can be activated and used. Activation of
these
workflows is optional and should be strictly need basis.

395

Activation Procedure:
To activate the workflow for Candidates request to delete Registration, execute the node Workflow
after Candidates Request to Delete Registration.

Click Activate event linking.

Click the Detail View icon under the Details column.
396

Check mark Event linkage activated, if unchecked and Save.

The event linkage overview screen shows the activation status of the workflow indicated by green icon
Activated. Activate all other required workflows in a similar manner.
397

1.1.6 5. Search Engine Configuration
The Search Engine in ERecruiting contains 2 main sub-divisions:
1. Full Text Search
2. Attribute based search
In general, we differentiate between 3 search types:
1.1. Full-text search for documents
1.2. Full-text search for objects
2.1. Attribute based search for objects

For documents (for example, the creation of a candidate), the data is unstructured. For unstructured
data, a KPRO index is used. KPRO index is accessible from transaction SKPR07.
For objects, the data is structured. In other words, the data from the infotypes of the HR objects to be
indexed is extracted and transferred to the SES framework. In TREX, an SES object index exists for each
business object. The SES indexes can either be accessed from SPRO IMG or using transaction
SES_ADMIN.
If you perform a full-text search, the system always performs a full-text search for objects. At the
same time, the system performs a full-text search for documents - if there are attachments and you
want to search for them too. During the Attribute-based search, the system only searches for objects.

5.1. Set up Indices of SES Object
IMG Path: SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> Search Engine -> Set up Indices of SES
Object
Transaction: SES_ADMIN
This step focuses on Attribute based Search for Objects. The standard system contains the following
objects.
Business object Short description
398

ERC_CAND SES business object Candidate
ERC_CDCY SES business object Candidacy
ERC_REQ SES business object Requisition
EXT_POST SES business object External Publication
INT_POER SES business object Internal Publication
This node starts the transaction SES_ADMIN. Initially there will be no indexes created.

Index can be created using the menu item: Index -> Create/Activate Indexes

A dialog box with existing indexable objects pops up. Select the relevant object and continue. It should
be noted that the objects should be selected one at a time, not multiple entries simultaneously.
We select object EXT_POST of object type NC.

399

The index as shown below has been created for object NC.

This index should be created for other object types also.
Below is the complete sequence of steps to be followed.
1. Create the object index for EXT_POST/NC.
2. Create the object index for INT_POER/NC.
3. Create the object index for ERC_REQ/NB.
4. Create the object index for AES_DOC/00000100.
5. Create the object index for ERC_CAND/NA. When you create this index, the system issues an error
message since you still cannot create the join index. Ignore this message.
6. Create the object index for ERC_CDCY/NE. When you create this index, the system creates the
corresponding relation index.
7. Create the relation index for ERC_CAND/NA.
Now the indexes are created but documents are yet to be indexed. For indexing the documents, we
have to start the full indexing for each of the indexes which will physically send the documents
corresponding to each object for indexing.
But before that we have to execute program RCF_SES_JOIN_INDEX_CREATE. You can use this program
to add further information to the join indexes. Join indexes contain Meta information about the
relationships between business objects. This program should always be executed when you delete or
re-create one or several indexes.

400

Once the join index is created we should perform the full indexing for all the ERecruiting specific
objects.

Select the objects in the same sequence in which they were created and click Index Immediately.
In the pop-up that follows, select Full (full indexing) only for the first run of indexing. Every
subsequent time, Delta (delta indexing) should be used. Full indexing indexes all the documents
corresponding to the selected object. Delta indexing selects only the new documents since last run for
indexing.
Although, selecting Full indexing for subsequent runs would do harm to the system, when the number
and size of documents on the content server increase full indexing would definitely take longer time
for execution and may put load on the system

When indexing is in progress, the program shows Active status.

401

The status is Completed once the indexing is done.

Once the status displayed is Active for all the indexes created, Attribute based search for objects can
be successfully performed from the portal.
The SES object based search can be tested using program COM_SE_SEARCH_IIF_TEST.
You may face a situation in future where the index becomes corrupt or the indexing accidently stops
working due to some hardware or compatibility related issues. In such situations, you may be required
to delete one or more existing indexes. Index can be deleted using menu path: Index -> Delete Index.

Click Yes on the pop-up that follows. This will delete the respective index. You can then re-create it.

402

5.2. Set up Access to Documents
IMG Path : SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> Search Engine -> Set Up Access to
Documents
Transaction: SICF
In this Customizing activity, you set up access to the CONTENTSERVER service of the SAP ERecruiting
system. This enables users to access documents of the document area HR_KW (Document Storage for
HR Objects). Attachments, search profiles, and so on, are stored in this document repository.

This service, if deactivated, should be activated by right clicking the node and clicking Activate
Service.
5.3. Initialize KPRO Directory
IMG Path: SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> Search Engine -> Initialize KPro Directory
Structure for SAP E-Recruiting
This node simply executes a program that does the necessary initializations w.r.t. KPro. Care should be
taken that during the execution of this program, the RCF_PERIODIC_SERVICES program is not being
executed.
5.4. Activate Indexing
IMG Path: SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> Search Engine -> Activate Indexing
View: V_SDOKIDSP
NOTE: KPro Search/Free Text Search to be accessed using transaction SKPR07 configuration starts at
this point.
403

Here, you select the document area HR_KW for KPRO indexing by checking the Index release checkbox.
Indexing is required to enable the search engine to search the search profiles.
The column Search Srv should contain the search server relation Id which will be created in the next
step. We have created EREC as the search server relation.
Note: HR_KW is the Document storage for HR objects.
5.5. Check Settings

IMG Path: SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> Search Engine -> Check Settings
Transaction: SKPR07

This transaction is used for creating TREX KPro index to be used for free-text-based search.
KPro index creation consists of following steps:
1. Search Server Relation creation
2. Index Category creation
3. Trigger indexing.

404

Search Server relation creation:
IMG Path : SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> Search Engine -> Check Settings -> SSR
Monitor
Transaction: SRMO
Description : The SSR is created to connect KPro and TREX search engine using RFC connection. We
specify
the search engine type and name of the RFC connection.
405

Click on the Create SSR button to create Search Server Relation.

Enter required name for SSR identification and click Create SSR.

406

DRFUZZY is the search Engine to be used by ERecruiting. Standard recommendation.
TREX_Q50 is the RFC Connection created in SM59 connecting SAP backend (KPro) with TREX engine.
The newly created SSR is now visible in the list of SSRs. To set this SSR as default select the entry and
click Set SSR as default.

Index Category Creation and Document Indexing:
IMG Path : SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> Search Engine -> Check Settings
Transaction: SKPR07
The index category can be created from the section Mass Actions of transaction SKPR07.
Uncheck Limited to selected language indicator.
Select Document Area indexing area

Create Index category by clicking Re-Index button. This will create a unique index category which can
be viewed by F4 on Index Category field.

407

The index category in F4 list looks as below.

Once the index category has been created, the documents can now be sent for indexing.
The Index/De-index section of SKPR07 can be used for document indexing.

Trigger Process will index the documents in the foreground. However, indexing needs to be scheduled
on a periodic basis. Program RCF_PERIODICAL_SERVICES can be scheduled for indexing.
Status of document indexing can be viewed from transaction TREX_ADMIN.

408

1.1.7 5. Periodic services
5.1. Define Periodic Services

Here, you specify services in the system that can be performed periodically. To do so, you assign each
service a class containing instructions on how to perform the service.

A range of periodic services are delivered in the standard system that are required for the search
within E-Recruiting. The search engine TREX (Text Retrieval and Information Extraction) does not
search using the operational data, but rather using search profiles. These are an extract of the
operational data. To keep the database up-to-date for the search, the search profiles must be updated
periodically. For the same reason, the documents that are included for the full-text search and the
search profiles must be indexed from time to time and communicated to the search engine TREX. This
indexing is performed by TREX and is prepared and activated using the service INDEX_DOCUMENTS.
409

.2. Activate Periodic Services
Here you activate the relevant periodic services for each client from the available list of periodic
services. Errors that occur while performing a service are written to the application log and can be
analyzed by the administrator.

5.3. Determine Rules from Periodic Services
In this activity, you set up attributes that influence a periodic service according to your requirements.
For Example: When a candidate decides to De-register or when the requisition status is set to To be
deleted, these objects are not permanently deleted but are stored in database buffer for specific
period. This time period is determined by the field Attribute Value in the below table.

5.4. Schedule Background Process for Periodic Services
Schedule the report RCF_PERIODICAL_SERVICES as a periodic background process. This report
automatically executes the services specified in Active Periodic Services table as specified above.
Choose a period between 10 and 30 minutes to ensure the search results are up-to-date
5.5. BADIs Activation
BAdi: HRALE00SPLIT_INBOUND
Implementation: HR_INB_PROCESS_IDOC.

410

The BAdI must be implemented for SAP E-Recruiting so that the data of the Person object (object type
P) may be used exclusively in the E-Recruiting application.
This BAdi is executed during ALE transfer when the data from IDoc needs to be used for module-
specific conversions or processing.
BAdi: HRALE00INBOUND_IDOC.
Implementation: HRRCF00_DELETE_SPREL.
This BAdi deletes all S-P relationships between positions and persons from the inbound IDocs.

NOTE: Both the BAdi must be active and implemented in the ALE destination client/server i.e. the
Target system of the IDoc.
411

1.1.8 6. SAP ECC Integration
IMG Path : SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Technical Settings -> SAP ERP Central Component (ECC)
Integration
Description: This IMG node describes the activities to be performed in HR and ERecruiting systems
under
various system scenarios i.e.
HR and ERecruiting are on same instance
HR and ERecruiting are on separate instances.
We have HR and Recruitment both on same instance.

The HR system is the main system for the following employee data. The data of an employee is
processed using Personnel Management (personnel actions, master data). Changes to the data in the
following infotypes are then reconciled with SAP E-Recruiting.
Actions (0000)
Organizational Assignment (0001)
Personal Data (0002)
Addresses (0006)
Communication (0105)
Qualifications (1001, subtype 032)
Data Reconciliation between HR Master Data and ERecruiting Data
Initial Data Conversion (One time activity)
Every user of the ERecruiting system, internal or external, has the Candidate object NA associated to
it. The NA object is connected to Business partner object BP via, Central Person object CP.
412

To get access to ERecruitment specific applications, services and to work on ERecruitment portal
without errors, HR Master Data needs to be integrated with Business Partner data i.e., each internal
user has to be translated in terms of ERecruiting objects.
Report HRALXSYNC is used for the initial data conversion.
Pre-requisite
Maintain the following entry in table T77S0.
GRPID SEMID GSVAL TEXT
HRALX OBPON ON Integraion O-BP Active

This report enables you to run a consistency check for the integration of HR Master Data and Business
Partner data. If not all data exists for the business partner, you can first synchronize data.
When synchronization is run for organizational units, the basic data (name, description) and the
address data is included;
When synchronization is run for central persons, bank information is included in addition to the basic
data and address data.

You can restrict the employees to be synchronized based on various selection criteria as shown above.
We are using Central Person object for synchronization. Execution of the program will display the
status of data updating.
413

Green Signal Business Partner data is consistent with HR object data.
Yellow Signal Business Partner exists but data is not consistent with HR object data.
Red Signal Business Partner does not exist or data is incomplete.

In case the record as shown above shows status in Yellow or Red, select the entry as shown below and
click Start Repair.

The program then tries to correct the error and if unsuccessful, displays the error or if successful shows
either a warning or no message.

414

This process has to be done for all employees or central persons once initially.

Refer the following section for auto data synchronization of newly hired employees and changes to
existing employees to be replicated in business partner tables on a continual basis.

Synchronous Data Conversion (Subsequent Data Update)
With the synchronization, the data is written automatically to SAP E-Recruiting after changes have
been made using HR standard transactions (for example, PA30, PA40, maintaining the qualification
profile).
Activate the following Business Add-ins for activating synchronous data conversion.
BAdI Definition Name = HRSYNC_P
BAdI implementation = CONV_HR_DATA_TO_EREC
Description: Conversion of Employee's HR Data in E-Recruiting. The BADI is executed every time
changes are
done to HR master data using PA30, PA40 or other master data transactions.
BAdI Definition Name = HRBAS00INFTY
BAdI implementation = HRRCF00_STORE_HRQUAL
Description: Updating of HR Qualifications in E-Recruiting Infotype 5105
415

1.1.9 7. Basic Settings
7.1. Determine Languages Available
IMG Path : SPRO -> SAP E-Recruiting -> Basic Settings -> Determine Languages Available
Description:
Here you specify which languages are supported in SAP E-Recruiting.
You can perform searches only in the languages stored here.
You can save attachments in these languages only.
You can enter texts in questions and questionnaires in these languages only. A separate tab
page is available for each language to enter the texts.
You can enter job postings in these languages only. A tab page is available for each language to
