Based on the content in this section, please review the list of implementation decisions your company may need to make before implementation begins and discuss them with your stakeholders, project team, and SAP SuccessFactors implementation consultants. In this way, you will be better prepared to begin the implementation.
- Will Payroll Administrators be able to self-assign policy deviations/errors identified in payroll? If so, they should be given access to the Unassigned Alerts functionality.
- Will Payroll Managers be allowed to adjust the following aspects of the payroll process, or will this be something that Information Technology must do? If so, they should be given access to the Manage Policies and Manage Processes user interfaces.
- Creation of new validation rules
- Which validation rules are used in the payroll processes (Pre-Payroll & Production Payroll)?
- Which Key Performance Indicator (KPI) data is used in the payroll processes (Pre-Payroll & Production Payroll)?
- Assigning and unassigning Payroll Administrators involved in the payroll process.
- Making payroll process periods available to run
- Will it make sense to provide authorizations and training for the Manage Configuration application?
- Which off-cycle activities will your organization run, at what interval, and who will run them?**
- Mass Off-Cycles (e.g., Annual Bonus Payments)
- Individual Off-Cycles (e.g., Correction Payroll 2 days after every payroll)
**Additional Role-Based Permissions (RBP)-based decisions will be included later after the functionality is explained**
