2083963 - Admin Domains or Decentralized Administration - Compensation

Symptom

  • This article explains how it is possible to have a decentralized administrative setup so comp admins are restricted to specific subsets of employees as defined by the super admin.
  • Can the population that a comp admin can access be restricted, edited and otherwise managed to specific target populations?

Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Compensation

Resolution

  • Customers with local HR Teams may choose to manage elements of their Comp & Variable Pay plan template setup locally.
  • An Admin with Super Admin permission can oversee all setup activities. Elements for de-centralized admin:
    • Comp & Varpay Guidelines
    • Varpay Bonus Plans
    • Varpay Business Goals
    • Varpay Business Goal Weights
  • The Benefit:
    • Each local admin team can manage any element defined for them for their region, but is restricted from viewing or managing this for people in other regions.
  • How to Get It
    • Please open a case with support who can enable this.
      • This does not require a CCOR
      • There is no cost if compensation is already enabled
      • This does require you have the latest Compensation Admin 2.0 already enabled (also a free update which can be enabled from the Upgrade Center)
  • How to Use It -  Example Using Guidelines
    • Go to Admin Tools > Actions for all plans > Import/Export Data > Manage Dynamic Groups
    • From here manage: Manage Field Permission Groups and Manage Administrator Groups
