SAP C_THR81_2405 SAP Certified Associate - Implementation Consultant - SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Core Exam Practice Test

To direct approval processes to the head of a business unit, you use aDynamic Role. This approver type allows you to dynamically assign approval tasks based on relationships such as the head of a specific organizational structure.

AManagerapprover type refers to direct line managers, which is different from business unit heads.

Dynamic GroupsandRolesdo not specifically address the dynamic nature of organizational roles like a business unit head.

In SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, thepayComponentNonRecurringHRIS element is used to record one-time payments or bonuses for employees. The following fields are mandatory and must be enabled for this element:

A. value

This field captures the monetary amount of the non-recurring payment.

B. pay-component-code

This field specifies the type of payment, such as a bonus or commission, by referencing predefined pay components.

C. pay-date

This field indicates the date on which the non-recurring payment is made.

These fields are essential for accurately processing and recording non-recurring payments within the system. It's important to note that other fields likefrequencyandis-targetare not applicable to non-recurring pay components and are therefore not required.

The rule inOption Bsupports theDefault_JobClassrequirement by setting default values for fields such as Job Title, Pay Grade, and Employee Class when the Job Classification field is NULL. This ensures that appropriate default data is applied to job information records when certain fields are not explicitly filled.

Scenario 1: HR Transaction Rules

When importing Personal Information into SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, the following fields are mandatory:

B. Event Date

This field specifies the effective date of the personal information record. It is crucial for maintaining accurate historical data and ensuring that changes are applied from the correct date.

SAP Help Portal

D. Person Id External

Theperson-id-externalserves as a unique identifier for the individual across all employment records within the system. It is essential for linking personal information to the correct person.

SAP Help Portal

Options A and C are not required for importing Personal Information:

A. Username

Theusernameis associated with system login credentials and is not a required field for importing personal information.

C. User Id

Theuser-idpertains to employment records and is not mandatory for the Personal Information import process.

TheCREATE Respects Target Criteriasetting in the Position object definition ensures that the system applies access control criteria when creating positions. This is critical for maintaining organizational and data security. It should be set toYesin the following cases:

A. To restrict access to create positions based on the granted user's target population:

This ensures that users can only create positions for entities (e.g., departments, locations) within their authorized target population.

C. To restrict access to create lower-level positions from the Position Org Chart:

This limits the ability to create subordinate positions in the hierarchy to authorized users, maintaining the integrity of position relationships.

To meet the requirement where the HR admin must approve the manager's updates to an employee's location, the workflow derivation rule must include the following IF condition:

Option A: Ensures that the condition checks whether the user belongs to the permission group for HR Admins, and the Event Reason value matches "Location Change".This configuration aligns the workflow rule with the scenario requirements, where HR admins are explicitly designated as approvers

Scenario 2: Approvals for Self-Service

To autogenerate the Position Code in Position Management, the following prerequisites must be fulfilled:

B. Set a Business Rule using the Trigger Rules to Generate Assignment ID External with the event type onSave and assign it in Position > Save Rules:

This rule ensures that the Position Code is automatically generated when a position is saved, based on the predefined logic in the business rule.

C. Set Position External Code Generation by On Save rule to Yes in Position Management Settings > General tab:

Enabling this setting ensures that the system allows automatic code generation based on the onSave rules defined in the Position Management module.

E. Set the Position Code field as read-only in the Position Object Definition:

Making the Position Code field read-only prevents manual entry, ensuring that the code is exclusively autogenerated by the system.

These settings align with best practices in automating Position Code generation and reducing manual input errors.

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.

SelectingRole: Manager - Source: Initiatorin Step 1 aligns with these requirements.

Scenario 2: Approvals for Self-Service

Workflow derivation rules for new hires are assigned in theJob InformationHRIS element.

The Job Information section contains employment-specific details and is the primary place where workflows for hiring processes are configured.

This ensures that workflows for approvals or other processes are correctly derived and triggered during the hire action.

C. The Parent Position field should NOT be included in the business rule:

The Parent Position field is typically derived automatically based on position hierarchy and does not require explicit inclusion in a business rule for defaulting position attributes.

D. The FTE field should be derived from the business rule to Calculate FTE based on Standard Hours:

The FTE (Full-Time Equivalent) value should be calculated using a dedicated rule that accounts for standard hours, rather than being directly included in a defaulting rule.

Including these fields inappropriately can lead to data inconsistencies or rule execution issues.

Position Management in SAP SuccessFactors supports different behaviors for position types, allowing tailored management practices. The following behaviors can be configured differently based on position types:

A. Trigger workflows on Job Information if the position changes are synchronized to the incumbents:

Specific workflows can be triggered for updates, such as when a position change impacts the employee(s) occupying that position.

B. Respect workflow at Copy Position in Position Organizational Chart:

Workflow rules for copying positions can be customized, ensuring approval processes align with organizational requirements.

E. Set or reset TBH (To Be Hired) status if an incumbent's FTE is changed:

Position types can define whether the TBH status is updated automatically based on changes to an incumbent’s FTE.

These behaviors enable organizations to manage diverse scenarios and requirements in position administration efficiently.

Cross-entity business rules in SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central allow for data propagation and validation across different HRIS elements. The following objects are supported in cross-entity business rules:

A. Pay Component Recurring

This object pertains to regular, recurring payments such as salaries. Cross-entity rules can be configured to update or validate data between Pay Component Recurring and other entities like Job Information.

D. Job Information

This object contains details about an employee's job role, department, and other related information. Cross-entity rules can be used to ensure consistency between Job Information and other entities, such as Compensation Information.

Objects likeWork Permit InformationandPersonal Informationare not currently supported in cross-entity business rules. The focus of cross-entity rules is primarily on employment-related entities to maintain data integrity across core HR processes.

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 order for an employee to change their nationality information on their own, theIF conditionmust:

Validate that theContext.Current Useris equal toLogin User(ensures that the logged-in user is making the changes).

Check if theNationality.Valueis not equal to theNationality.Previous Value(ensures that a change is being made).

Scenario 2: Approvals for Self-Service

Event reason derivation in Employee Central does not support certain predefined events such as:

Termination: This event is typically manually configured without automatic derivation of event reasons.

Hire: Similarly, for the hire process, event reasons are explicitly selected rather than being derived automatically.

Other events like Transfer and Data Change are supported for event reason derivation, as they rely on changes in job information or other key attributes.

To set up the Auto Delegation feature in Employee Central workflows, the following steps are required:

Enable Auto-Delegate Permission: Users must have the auto-delegate permission enabled, which allows them to define their delegates for workflows.

Enable Auto-Delegation in the Corporate Data Model: This configuration ensures that the system recognizes and supports the auto-delegation functionality at the framework level.

Correct Answers:

B: Enable the auto-delegate permission for users.

D: Enable the field in the Corporate Data Model.

TheDefault_JobClassrule should be assigned to theJob Codefield in Job Information. This field serves as the key reference for deriving other job-related attributes, such as Job Title, Pay Grade, and Employee Class, ensuring that defaults are set when required.

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 thelocationobject definition, add anelement to link it to thelegalEntityobject. This association should be defined within thesection.

Configure Field Criteria for the Location Field:

Within the Job Information (jobInfo) element, add aelement 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.

To create a custom field that appears only for legal entity France:

UseConfigure Object Definitionto add the field in theLegal Entity object.

Add field criteria to display the field conditionally based on the country being France.

This approach allows you to manage country-specific fields without modifying the Corporate Data Model directly.

When creating a business rule to trigger a transfer event reason upon a location change, theJob Information Modelis the correct base object. This is because location is a field within theJob Informationentity, and changes to fields within this entity are best handled using theJob Information Modelbase object for related rules.

Correct Answer:

C: Job Information Model

Country-specific field configurations can be applied to certain employment-related objects in SAP SuccessFactors. These objects include:

Employment Details: This object supports country-specific fields to reflect variations in employment attributes across different countries.

Job Information: This object is frequently used for managing job-related data that varies by country, such as legal entity, location, and pay grade.

Correct Answers:

C: Employment Details

D: Job Information

TheJob Information Modelis the base object used for theJobinfo_FTF_Comprule.

This rule applies to job information-related events and ensures that the necessary validations or transformations are triggered based on job data changes.

As Job Information is the foundational data structure for tracking employee roles, positions, and assignments, it is the correct base object for this scenario.

Scenario 1: HR Transaction Rules

In theCorporate Data Model, thecountry-specific Corporate Addresselement requires the fieldCountryto be specified. This ensures that address configurations are appropriately associated with a country.

The following processes in Position Management are controlled from thePosition Management Settings:

Follow Up Activity in Position: Allows configuration of follow-up actions such as automatically adjusting positions after specific events (e.g., vacancy creation).

Automated Daily Hierarchy Adaptation: Ensures daily updates to the position hierarchy based on changes to positions or organizational relationships.

To Be Hired Status Adaptation: Automatically adjusts the "To Be Hired" status of positions based on certain conditions or events.These settings streamline position management and help maintain accurate organizational structures.
