Hi,
You can read every thread in this forum.
1.Personnel Administration - it deals with the HR Master Data
2.Organization Management - It deals with the personnel planning all about Business Units,Cost centers etc this will give the picture how your organization look virtually.
Keep these modules as base must know modules
3 Time Management - This manages employee times ,leaves,quotas,shifts,working schedules etc working patterns etc
CATS ,Cross Application Time sheets
Shift Planning etc are part of Time Management but these are individually separate knowledge of these is not necessary when you start your career going forward it would be helpful to grow.
4.Payroll- This manages employee payment part and payment including the off cycle payments
These 4 can be considered to be the basic modules of HCM
5 Recruitment -Deals with process of recruitment from manpower planning to on-boarding
Apart from these we have
6.Benefits -which deals with the fringe benefits (applicable to USA ) and some other countries-I t deals with the insurance ,medical etc
7,ESS/MSS This is self service module employee self service and manager self service these are Portal based modules
We have new generation modules
Such(8) E- Recruitment this deals with the E Recruitment this is portal based modules
Learning Solution
Succession Planning
Personnel Development
Talent Visualization by Nakisa
Enterprise compensation Management (this is again a separate module)
These all part of Talent Management Suite and portal based modules knowing these would give you an edge.
This module is very upcoming and hot
To become an effective HCM consultant you need have good business process knowledge combined with the any of 4 to modules (indepth)
Outside HCM if you knowledge of HR ABAP and MS Excel and MS Word of great advantage.
To start your choose Personnel Management,Org Management combined with Time Management and Payroll
Or ESS/MSS with Talent Management
