WHAT IS SAP ESS?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Collection of services designed to provide individual employees access to view and maintain their data<\/p>\n

What are the components available in Employee Self-Service (ESS) Applications?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The ESS provides information about the applications (services) that are available in the Employee Self-Service component.<\/p>\n

The individual applications are assigned to the following areas:<\/p>\n

Address Book<\/p>\n

Working Time<\/p>\n

Benefits and Payment<\/p>\n

Personal Information<\/p>\n

Career and Job<\/p>\n

Procurement<\/p>\n

Work Environment<\/p>\n

Travel<\/p>\n

Life and Work Events<\/p>\n

What is the definition of a line manager?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have defined a line manager as the post holder who is responsible for the performance and well-being of a member of staff in the University. This may or may not be the post-holder who carries out the SDPR \/ performance review for the member of staff. There are important responsibilities and requirements for line managers accessing information through MSS. If there is any doubt about who is the line manager, it is advised that the more senior role is applied.<\/p>\n

What are the Implementation Considerations for SAP ESS?<\/strong><\/p>\n

If your employees need to access their data in the intranet used at the enterprise, they require an SAP user. The system needs to know which ESS user belongs to which employee because employees must only be able to maintain their data. The component enables you to create relationships between employees and users.<\/p>\n

What are the Features of SAP ESS?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Employee Self-Service component is composed not only of services but also of tools that you require to create relationships between users and employees. You can create new users, or use existing users.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
