SAP C_THR81_2505 - SAP Certified Associate - SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Core

In the scenario where an employee transfer process is initiated, and a workflow is triggered, the system behavior is as follows:

Alternate Workflow Usage: If there is a future-dated record entered for the employee, the system utilizes the alternate workflow. This mechanism ensures that the appropriate workflow is applied based on the effective date of the transaction, allowing for accurate processing of future-dated changes.

This functionality is designed to handle scenarios where actions need to be taken in advance, ensuring that the system processes the correct workflow when the future-dated record becomes effective.

The rule in Option B effectively captures all unspecified events in a transaction because:

It sets the Event Reason Value to "Data Change" whenever the Event Reason Value is null.

This ensures that all unplanned or unspecified events are assigned a default action, which is crucial for maintaining data consistency and avoiding errors during transactions.

Scenario 1: HR Transaction Rules

Rule contexts in SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central can be applied in the following scenarios:

A. onChange rules

These rules are triggered when a field value is changed and are used to validate or calculate data dynamically.

C. onSave rules

These rules are executed when a record is saved, ensuring compliance with data validation or propagation requirements.

onInit rules apply during the initialization phase but are not considered part of dynamic user-triggered contexts. onView rules are not available as a configurable option in the rule engine

In SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, employee identifiers are managed as follows:

A. Once generated, you CANNOT change a user id.

The User ID serves as a unique identifier for an employee's employment record. Once assigned, it cannot be altered.

D. A user can have multiple user ids.

An employee may possess multiple User IDs, especially in scenarios involving concurrent employment or global assignments. Each employment instance is associated with a distinct User ID.

E. A user can have only one person id external.

The Person ID External uniquely identifies an individual across all employment records within the system. An employee is assigned a single Person ID External, regardless of the number of employments.

Options B and C are incorrect:

B. A user can have only one user id.

This is incorrect because, as mentioned, an employee can have multiple User IDs corresponding to different employment instances.

C. Once generated, you CANNOT change a person id external.

This is incorrect. While the Person ID External is intended to be a stable identifier, it can be changed if necessary, though such changes should be managed carefully to maintain data integrity.

In SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, the People Profile is designed to consolidate related HRIS elements into cohesive blocks for streamlined data management. Specifically, the compInfo (Compensation Information) and payComponentRecurring (Recurring Pay Components) HRIS elements share the same People Profile block. Similarly, the personalinfo (Personal Information) and globalinfo (Global Information) HRIS elements are grouped together within the People Profile. This structured grouping enhances the user experience by providing a unified view of related employee information.

When configuring events and event reasons in SAP SuccessFactors, you can perform the following actions:

A. Add a new language translation

New language translations can be added for events and event reasons to support multilingual organizations.

B. Change the status

You can activate or deactivate events based on organizational needs.

D. Change the labels

Labels for events can be modified for better understanding and alignment with organizational terminology.

C. Change the external_code of an event and E. Add a new event are incorrect as external codes are immutable once created, and adding events requires admin-level access beyond event picklist configuration

Event Reason Derivation in SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central is triggered when changes are made to employee data through specific actions. Utilizing the "Actions" menu in the People Profile to update employee information initiates the Event Reason Derivation process. This mechanism automatically determines the appropriate event reason based on the nature of the data change.

In contrast, inserting a new record via the history UI, deleting a record in the history UI, or using the "Add New Hire" function does not trigger Event Reason Derivation. These actions either bypass the derivation process or involve scenarios where event reasons are manually selected.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B: Using Actions menu in People Profile

This approach ensures that event reasons are accurately derived and recorded in line with the configured business rules in SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central.

To ensure that the salary change initiated by the HR Business Partner is approved by their manager, you need to configure the workflow with the following details:

Approver Type: Manager

Approver Role: Manager

Context: Initiator (this ensures the approval request is routed to the manager of the person initiating the workflow).

Relationship to Approver: From the initiator’s position, the system derives the relationship to their manager.

Selecting Role: Manager - Source: Initiator in Step 1 aligns with these requirements.

Scenario 2: Approvals for Self-Service

To establish a one-to-many association from Location to Legal Entity and enable filtering of the Location field based on the Company field in the Job Information block, the following configurations are necessary:

Define the Association in the Location Object:

In the location object definition, add an element to link it to the legalEntity object. This association should be defined within the section.

Configure Field Criteria for the Location Field:

Within the Job Information (jobInfo) element, add a element as part of the . This configuration ensures that the Location field is filtered based on the selected Company (Legal Entity) in the Job Information block.

Therefore, the correct answers are:

B: as part of

D: as part of

These configurations align with the standard practices for setting up associations and field criteria in SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central.
