Define Employee Groupings for Determining Commitment Items

In this step of the IMG, you define employee groupings.

These groupings are a prerequisite for using feature PM007 (Define Employee Groupings for Determining Commitment Items) to determine employee groupings which, in turn, are used for finding commitment items. A commitment item is determined on the basis of a specific employee grouping/expenditure type combination.

These settings are required if you want the system to propose a default commitment item when you finance a person within these employee groupings.

This commitment item is, in turn, a prerequisite for determining a FM account assignment (a specific combination of ,funds center, and commitment item).

Example

In HR Funds and Position Management, you want to use the budgets of integrated budget structure elements to finance civil servants and salaried employees. To ensure that an FM account assignment is proposed by the system during this process, you would define the following groupings:

Employee grouping Description
001 Civil Servant
002 Salaried Employee

2. In the Employee grouping field, define a 3-character numeric key for every employee grouping in your organization.
3. Enter a descriptive text in the Name field for every key defined in step 2 above.
4. Choose Save.
