Understanding the increasingly complex SAP HCM Landscape: On- Premise vs. Cloud vs. Hybrid 5
Understand the Reporting Options Available for On-Premise, Cloud, Hybrid, Etc. The SAP landscape for HCM is quite complex, and there are many new terms that may be confusing, including: Cloud vs. On- Premise vs. Hybrid SuccessFactors and Workforce AnalyAcs Business Warehouse (BW) HANA SoRware- as- a- Service (SaaS) SAP s On- Demand SoluAons Employee Central Let s start with a discussion of the landscape and where each of these items fits
What Tools to Use for Reporting in HCM 3 Plaborms (Cloud, Hybrid, On- premise) 3 Report Types (AnalyAcal, TransacAonal/OperaAonal) 2 Timing OpAons (Real- Time or Offline) Over a Dozen Report Tools (BW, Ad Hoc Query, SF Workforce AnalyAcs) Report Accessibility opaons (Portal, ESS, MSS, Mobile)
On-Premise and Cloud On- Premise Any technology that is locally installed on hardware that resides in your physical locaaon. Example: Microso< Windows Cloud Any technology that does not require a local installaaon and is accessible via any PC that has access to the Internet. Example: Gmail
History SAP Used to be purely an On- Premise soluaon for all HCM modules In December 2011, SAP acquired SuccessFactors, whose sorware was largely designed on a Cloud or SaaS (SoRware- as- a- Service) plaborm
What SAP Offered Before the SuccessFactors Acquisition On- Premise SAP Modules Personnel AdministraFon OrganizaFonal Management Payroll Benefits Time & AJendance Management E- RecruiFng E- Learning Performance Management CompensaFon, etc.
What SAP Offered Immediatley After the Acquisition On- Premise SAP Modules Personnel AdministraFon OrganizaFonal Management Payroll Benefits Time & AJendance Management Cloud SuccessFactors Modules ENTERPRISE EDITION RecruiFng Onboarding Learning Performance & Goals CompensaFon Succession & Development On- Premise E- Recrui/ng On- Premise E- Learning On- Premise Performance Management On- Premise Compensa/on, etc. The old specialty SAP modules were replaced by new SuccessFactors modules. In SAP, these are now called On-Premise Talent Management Solutions which SAP will support until Year 2020.
Where It Is Today On- Premise SAP ERP HCM Modules: Personnel AdministraAon Org. Management Payroll Benefits Time & Ajendance Mgmt Etc. Cloud SuccessFactors Modules: ENTERPRISE EDITION RecruiAng Onboarding Learning Performance & Goals CompensaAon Succession & Development * Employee Central ** Employee Central Payroll * Employee Central is the new face of SAP HCM that allows users to view, maintain audit and report on SAP HCM data. ** Employee Central Payroll is currently a hosted payroll soluaon in development
A Common Deployment Today = Hybrid + = On- Premise Cloud Hybrid SAP ERP HCM Modules: Personnel AdministraAon Org. Management Payroll Benefits Time & Ajendance Mgmt Etc. SuccessFactors Modules: ENTERPRISE EDITION RecruiAng Onboarding Learning Performance & Goals CompensaAon Succession & Development * Employee Central ** Employee Central Payroll
Hybrid Deployment Trends Some customers are keeping their core SAP modules (HR, Payroll, Benefits, etc.) on- premise and are moving talent management modules (such as Recruitment, Succession Planning, etc.) to SuccessFactors SAP is working toward a cloud- based payroll soluaon that integrates with Employee Central in SuccessFactors. Many companies we talk to plan to conanue to keep their core data or their SAP payroll data on- premise for the Ame being

Third- Party SoluFons On- Premise soluaons are used in the local SAP system There are pros and cons with each soluaon, as noted on the following slides
1A. SAP Standard Canned Reports SAP delivers hundreds of standard reports for the Human Capital Management module You can find them via General Report SelecAon navigaaon on the SAP Easy Access Menu Each funcaonal area in SAP ERP HCM is listed by module and all of the available standard reports are included there

2. Custom-Coded Reports (ABAP, SAPScript, etc.) Any report developed that requires a trained programmer to insert code into SAP to collect informaaon, design output, and produce a report Every company has at least a handful of custom- coded reports Created from scratch Sample code from ABAP report at right
3. Query Tools There are a couple of SAP pre- delivered, Query- based tools that can be used for reporang, including: SAP Query Ad Hoc Query (known as InfoSet Query in modules other than HCM)
What s New with the Query Tools for SAP ERP HCM? Zip Nada Nothing The tools have not been enhanced since version 4.6 No new funcaonality planned SAP s current commitment is for analyacs and to further develop SuccessFactors reporang soluaons, not transacaonal reporang Large numbers of exisang SAP Notes with both Ad Hoc Query and SAP Query (see next slide)

The Biggest Challenge for SAP HR & Payroll 45
Biggest SAP HCM Business Challenge The largest challenge for SAP ERP HCM customers is that mulaple tools are required to report on core HR and Payroll data (Payroll, OM, Benefits, Time, etc.) ORen this data is collected via mulaple tools and consolidated offline. Besides being a considerable waste of Ame, resources and money it also poses both security and data integrity risks
Why So Many Tools for On Premise? Core SAP HCM Modules Master Data AdministraAon ReporFng SoluFons and UFliFes Pre- delivered reports Benefits Management Custom ABAP/SAP Script Org Management Ad hoc Query / SAP Query Time & Ajendance HIS Payroll Data QuickViewer Tax Data Payroll Recon Report Financial PosAngs Wage Type or Tax Reporter Concurrent Employment PCP0
The Biggest Reporting Challenge Ocen Fmes, data taken from mulfple systems has to be manually consolidated and manipulated in an outside system to produce reports MicrosoR Excel
SAP HR/Payroll Reporting With Easy Reporter Type of Data ReporAng SoluAon Master Data AdministraAon Benefits Management Org Management Time & Ajendance Payroll Data Tax Data Financial PosAngs Concurrent Employment
Solving the Business Challenge You no longer have to use mulaple tools to access SAP HCM data You no longer have to download data and manipulate it in an outside applicaaon like MicrosoR Excel or Access You no longer risk losing the security of the data once you take it outside of SAP You do not need technical or coding or ABAP skills to get the data you need. It is a simple drag and drop
