SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central: core HR on the cloud

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central is the core HR system of record for the SAP SuccessFactors suite. We implement it around your policies, countries and organisation structure.

Overview

One trusted record for every employee, in every country

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central holds employee master data, job and position information, organisation structure, time off and the workflows that connect them. It also feeds recruiting, onboarding, performance, compensation and payroll. Getting the foundation configuration right makes every later module easier, so we invest time in design before we configure.

What you can expect
  • Workshops with HR, payroll and business owners to capture policies
  • Foundation objects, role-based permissions and workflows configured to your needs
  • Country-specific set up for each location you operate in
  • Clean employee data migrated from your existing HR systems
  • Testing with real HR scenarios and training before go-live
