Assigning HR Objects to Work Centers

Prerequisites

You can link work centers in logistics (LO) with the Human Resources Management System in two ways:

  • If you want to assign the HR objects people, positions, requirements profiles and qualifications to LO work centers, you must first assign the work center to an HR work center. This can be an existing HR work center. You can also create a new HR work center (which can have the same name as the LO work center) during the assignment procedure.

  • Alternatively you can assign a LO work center to an organizational unit in HR. You can then create no further links to other HR objects via the organizational unit.

You can delete links between an LO work center and HR.
