  • PI 7.1 enterprise services: How to find & invoke SAP HCM enterprise Service

    Hi all,
    in PI 7.1, i read, there is support of enterprice services.
    is my current understandings right about PI 7.1 and enterprise services:
    1.the standard BAPIs, standard RFC that were provided in R/3 are replaced by standard enterprise services in SAP ECC.
    2.a nonSAP application can invoke an enterprise service in the same way as a nonSAP application used to call an RFC in the R/3.
    I want to view how an enterprise service of any SAP module can be called by a nonSAP applicaiton.
    are there any doc or blog which shows this.
    is possible with/wihout PI.
    We have follwoing things installed.
    1. PI 7.1 SP4.
    2. SAP ECC 6.0, i am dealing with SAP HCM module.
    are there any enterprise services of HCM available (e.g standard enterprise services given by SAP for HCM module).
    basically i want to test whether a nonSAP application like a java application, can it get some info using standard HCM enterprise services provided by SAP.
    I explored esWorkplace (http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/esworkplace), but it does not display HCM related process components under the column "DISCOVER ENTERPRISE SERVICES".
    thanks,
    Madhu.

  • SAP HCM Life Cycle

    Hi Expert,
    Can anyone help me with the life cycle stages of SAP HCM.
    I have a student who asked me what is the concept of SAP HCM, I explained about where was it started, what is the architecture, why is SAP preferred against other applications, modules covered, logic of integration... I would like to know if I am missing on anything as far as Concept is concerned.
    Thank you in Advance.
    Sejal

    Hi,
    There is nothing as such called lifecycle of SAP HCM.
    It is similar to an ERP application, and basically your organization first decides which of the ERP module they are going to implement, once they have decided to go for HCM, they wil opt for it.
    Again in HCM it depens on customer which module he is going to implement and HCM is vast it inlcudes PA, OM, TIME, PAYROLL, BENFITS, TRAVEL MANAGEMENT, LSO, Performance management, HR Forms and Processes etc.
    This implmentation has a life cycle - like
    Requirement gathering, Blue printing, Realization, implementatin (Configuration and coding), Custom implemenation, Integration if required, Testing (includes, UT, SIT and User acceptance testing), Documentation and hence Go Live.
    This is a huge process and requires domain / business / technical/ functional / Quality / Knowledge experts.
    Hope it helps you.

  • SAP HCM/Active Directory synchronization

    Hi,
    I am trying to integrate SAP R/3 (master database) to Active Directory.
    And Active Directory will be used by rest all systems.Adding of new employee is done at SAP HCM and the same data should be created in Active Directory.
    I went through couple of forum threads but did not get the solution,
    Integrating SAP HR and active directory services
    LDAP/Active Directory synchronization
    http://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=47039448&messageID=7577288
    Please le me know how can achieve this.Your help is greatly appreciated...
    Regards,
    Rudradev Devulapelli

    It is a tool for user data synchronization, provisioning, compliance etc. It is an Java application so it is installed on AS Java.
    I have played with it only for a few days and I was able to use it to synchronize some data from AD and ERP. So I guess your scenario would be something like this:
    - HR adds new employee,
    - IDM synchronizes data between HCM and AD ie. it creates new user in AD,
    - user uses AD to authenticate to access, for example, file share.
    But IDM can do a lot of things besides this simple example. So I suggest you to go through "Technical Overview Presentation":

  • SAP HCM Versus Oracle HR

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    Please tell me which is the best "SAP HCM or Oracle HR" and Why?
    Points will be rewarded for the answers.
    Regrads
    Sairam Maharaj S

    Although the opinion is very subjective, I wld say SAPs HR solution is better than Oracle. My opinion is based on several things, i am not just judging the product superiority but things that affect in a larger picture
    1)size,industry,Geography of the business in question is something to consider while deciding an ERP. because issues like scalability,Integration and most importantly Localisation are of major significance.
    different legislation governs employment in different countries and as far as i know SAP does a great job in localization..and their efforts continue still with growing UNICODE significance. its is also strong in localising  a major HR process i.e PAYROLL. Also its intergration with number of industries supported too is extensive compared to Oracle.
    2)with introduction of Netweaver SAPs proved to be a Agressive competitor in terms of provising great user experience with simple and effective user interface.
    which is of greater significance in todays world of superior UI design.
    3)SAP HR has evolved with SOA,its ESS and MSS functionalities are not limited to typical HR operations but efforts are on way to extending them to accomodate Composite Application Framework and Colloboration Tools. so for any product company Investment in research/ future technologies and functionalities shows its longevity in competitive market.
    4)SAP was essentially a leader in European Market whereas Oracle has strength in US market..but the coporate Marriage of SAP with Microsoft in the form of Duet only shows the tip of an iceberg as to what plans SAP has to extend its market share. Most companies adore the simple and straightforward usage of MS Outlook...now for end users performing SAP functions thru the same interface is a dream come true. SAP HR features are significant in DUET.
    5) Not sure where i read but i believe SAP HR implimentation has become very affordable even to small busineses.The time frame for entire end-to-end impliemntation user training etc everything is significantly faster and cheaper.
    (Lots of us Hr consultants do a  great job with less pay
    so if i keep myself in a businessmans Shoe analysing which ERP gives me ROI and Superior functionality within my budget..and is scalable etc
    or as a end user who doesnt find using SAP interface too complex
    or as a SAP HR Consultant...whose jobs is secure for years to come
    I wld Vote for SAP
    P.s opinion shared is entirely personal based on my knowledge and experience any discripancies otherwise can be pointed i wld correct myself.

  • Obtaining the list of data interfaced out of SAP HCM

    Hello,
    we got a good challenge from our partners in the business organization that we support. The Data Privacy officer on the business partner side would like to know:
    - what other systems are "takers" of the data from our SAP HCM instance
    - what data pieces (what tables, fields...) are being interfaced out
    - what is the frequency of that
    We are trying to maintain the document whenever a new interface is being built but in practice you know how it looks like.In order to have 100% confidence in the anwser I would want to pull such list from the system. Is there a way to do that? What would you suggest?
    Regards,
    Pawel

    Try the function below, pass the item name and get the Data provider for that particular item, you will have to do this for all the items in the template.
    function getDPName(item){
         prop = SAPBWGetItemProp(item);
         var tableHidden=true;
         if (prop != null){
           for(i=1;i<prop.length;i++){
             if (prop<i>[0] == "DATA_PROVIDER")
                   return prop<i>[1]
           }//end for
         }//end if
    }//end function
    Thanks.

  • Dear All,what are the major issues in implementation in sap hcm

    what are the major issues in implementation in SAP HCM project scope is PA ,OM,TIME, INDIA PAYROLL

    Hi Ramjan,
    Try to have a clear understanding of requirements and find the best solution in SAP. Keep as much as possible everything standard and based on SAP best practices.
    In PA look for a comprehensive enterprise structure. It's base for everything.
    DON"T do anything through development(ABAP code) as much as possible specially in PT and PY. Try to do claculation by PCRs and Schema.

  • Integrating SuccessFactors PMS solution With SAP HCM without saving any employee master data in SF

    Hi Friends,
    We’re implementing SuccessFactors’s Performance Management Solution only at one of the client location in Saudi Arabia and trying to integrate with the On-Premise SAP HCM and Push the employee data to SF.
    However, due to security concerns customer doesn’t want to store any data on SucessFactors cloud solution to run the PMS cycle.
    During the purchase of license for SuccessFactors SAP has demonstrated client that, in SF a unique Id will be created for each employee, which will not be the actual UserID(PERNR)from SAP, and with this unique ID actual employee data will be tagged/linked  in SF which will fetch the data from SAP On-Premise system to run  the PMS cycle.  Once the user logins in SF, based on the unique ID data will fetch from SAP On-Premise system to SF on a real time basis and when the user logged out from the SF system, data should be cleared/deleted and nothing will be saved or stored in SF with respect to employee Master Data.
    I understand SAP has provided the standard add-on for the Employee Data Scenario between SuccessFactors and SAP HCM, which could have been leveraged here for integration using PI, however with the above limitation this solution is absolutely out of scope.
      Please advice, is there any solution where with PI if we can achieve the above requirement of client.
    Thanks,

  • To implement SAP HCM module in existing SAP ECC 6.0

    Hi,
    I have SAP ECC 6.0 system already implemented 2 years back.
    I am planning to implement SAP HCM with OM, PA, SAP Time management, SAP PAYROLL in existing SAP ECC 6.0 system.
    I have currently 3 system landscape for SAP ECC.
    I would like to know what change/addition is required in above landscape to implement SAP HCM module in existing SAP ECC 6.0
    Do share your view.
    Regards.

    Hi.
    As per you, Already designed Landscape. Why dont you follow you existing Landscape which is alredy proved for other modules.
    Normally Dev/Quality/Production clients will there..
    If more that depends upon flexibility in Each client and defining different business for testing and production interfaces purpose.
    Better use Existing only remaining modules already sucessfully running in Production Right????
