02 //Why this course

Why this course.

S4/SAP SuccessFactors (HR) is proposed as a 75-day SAP SuccessFactors Human Experience Management program centered on the employee lifecycle and HR platform foundation: Employee Central Core, organizational and employee data, Position Management, permissions, business rules, onboarding/recruiting integration, compensation, performance and goals, learning, reporting/integration and implementation practice.

SAP's current Employee Central Core Academy covers initial configuration, permissions, foundation objects, employee data, transactions, business rules and optional configurations. SAP also provides a dedicated Position Management learning path covering configuration, employee lifecycle, business rules and integration with other SuccessFactors solutions.

SAP documentation further describes SuccessFactors as a connected HR environment in which Employee Central provides core employee/organizational data used by other solutions. Current documentation covers Recruiting-to-Onboarding-to-Employee Central flows, Compensation integration, Learning integration and Core Hybrid integration with SAP S/4HANA.
