This iView displays the employees in the manager’s area of responsibility, that is, employees who report either directly or indirectly to the manager. The display is based on the SAP application component Organizational Management.
You can provide managers with various display options in this iView. To do this, you make the relevant Customizing settings in the back-end system (see the "Prerequisites” section) and in the iView properties (see the “Settings” section). Managers can also filter the data that is displayed.
You can provide managers in your company with all or some of the following display options:
● Display employees for one or more organizational units
Organizational units are displayed in a separate navigation area in which the manager can select the relevant organizational unit. You have the following display options for the navigation area:
○ List display
The system displays organizational units in a list. This view is suitable if the manager is responsible for only a few organizational units.
○ Hierarchy display
The system displays organizational units in a hierarchy. This is suitable if the manager is responsible for a large number of organizational units, or for part of the overall organizational structure.
● Display directly reporting employees in a list
This view is suitable for managers located on a higher level in the hierarchy who require quick access to directly reporting employees.
● Search for employees
The search function is useful for managers who are responsible for a large number of employees. The simple search function in the standard system provides managers with the following search criteria:
○ First name
○ Middle name
○ Last name
○ Personnel number
The enhanced search function also includes the following search criteria:
○ Organizational unit
○ Personnel area
○ Personnel subarea
You can define additional search criteria in Customizing.
This iView is part of the General Information, Compensation Information, and Personnel Development pages. The iViews on these pages are called by a single Web Dynpro application. In the standard system they are not standalone applications, as users select most data for all iViews on a page, centrally using the Employee Search iView.
Managers select an employee in the Employee Search iView. Using Eventing, the Floorplan Manager informs the remaining iViews on the page that a new employee has been selected. The iViews obtain the personnel number of the selected employee and display the relevant information for this employee.
In the standard system, the Employee Search iView is integrated with the following iViews on the pages previously mentioned:
● Managers can use the following iViews to display further information for the selected employee:
Additionally, the Organizational Assignments iView is available by hyperlink from the General Data iView.
○ Photo
○ Profile Matchup and Required Training
● Using the Additional Activities iView, managers can request data changes for a selected employee, or run an Employee Self-Service application for this employee.

For more information about how you can include the Employee
Search iView in other locations in your portal, see the documentation for the
Business Package
for Self-Service Administrator.
● The general prerequisites for business package are fulfilled.
● You are using the SAP application components Personnel Administration (PA-PA) and Organizational Management (PA-OM). The components are integrated with one another in your SAP ERP system.
● In Customizing for Manager Self-Service (mySAP ERP), you have made the settings in the Object and Data Provider section.
