Navigating the User Interface​

The SAP SuccessFactors HCM Home Page is the starting point for all users to access the SAP SuccessFactors suite. It features the Needs Attention section, designed to help users manage tasks that require action, such as learning assignments, approvals, or team-related responsibilities. These tasks are displayed as cards, allowing users to quickly identify and prioritize what needs to be completed. The Analytic Card can be enabled on the HCM Home Page to display the user's total learning hours to the year-to-date.

When using the Learning module, the Needs Attention section provides a clear view of training assignments. Users can select the View All button to display and filter their learning tasks. They can view assignments specific to themselves, and managers can also track tasks assigned to their team members. For managers, cards related to their team's learning assignments include an option to send customizable reminder emails, making it easy to follow up with team members and ensure timely completion.

The SAP SuccessFactors HCM Home Page simplifies learning task navigation. Selecting a learning card from the Needs Attention section takes the user directly to the details of the activity. From there, the user can review the assignment, complete tasks, or view additional details about the training. To access the Learning Home Page, users can select Learning from the Home menu.

The Learning Home Page displays users’ assigned learning. The assigned learning resides on the My Learning Assignments tile. Essential tiles, such as Find Learning and Learning History, and optional tiles, such as Recommendations, Featured, and Self-Assigned, can be displayed.

Depending on the role and permissions of the user, the Learning home page can display additional tabs. Configurations based on customer requirements define which tiles display on each tab.

The Learning Home Page offers a streamlined and user-friendly interface designed to enhance the learning journey for users. On the Learning Home Page, also referred to as the Learning Plan, users can view all assigned learning activities categorized into various formats, including Instructor-led, Online, Instructor-led with Online Content, Other Items, and Programs.

Each learning assignment is presented in a card format (see call out 1 in figure below) providing essential information at a glance, such as the learning type, title, due date and a retraining required notice for curricula that require retraining. This visual representation simplifies navigation and helps users manage their learning tasks effectively.

Additionally, the Search for Learning field (see call out 2 in figure below) enables quick access to resources by allowing users to enter keywords, facilitating searches for items, curricula, programs, QuickGuides, collections, and classes available in the library.

Enhancing user experience further is the Dashboards menu (see call out 3 in figure below), located at the top right of the Learning Home Page. This menu provides tailored access to Learning pages based on user roles, ensuring that individuals can quickly find relevant resources suited to their specific needs.

Next to it is the Activities menu (see call out 4 in figure below), which grants access to various functionalities, including Curricula, QuickGuides, Learning History, Collections, Accomplishments, Approvals, Orders, Reports, Training Planner, External Learning Requests, and more. This comprehensive structure not only organizes learning resources but also empowers users to take charge of their educational paths efficiently.

All assigned learning displayed in the Learning Home Page is presented in sections on the User’s learning plan. Each section consists of cards that describe the various learning events, such as Instructor-led, Online, Instructor-led with Online Content, Other Items, and Programs.

The visibility of available sections is dependent on how or by whom the learning was assigned. Examples of common sections that may be displayed on your learning plan include:

• Required Learning: This section shows required training assigned by others, such as the administrator or manager. The learning assignments are prioritized by due date. The user can quickly see at a glance items that are overdue, due soon, and upcoming.
• Important Learning: This section shows optional learning assignments assigned by administrators and managers. If learners aren't interested in a particular assignment, they can remove it.
• Requests for Me: This section shows any learning requests that the user needs to address such as observation requests or training request approvals.
• Invest in Myself: This section shows learning that may have already started or has been approved and ready for the learner to start. Any item that has a due date in the next 30 days appears first. After that, items appear in the order of your last interaction with them.
• Latest Bookmarks: This section displays saved courses and other learning content flagged using the bookmark feature. It provides users with an easy way to manage their learning interests on a single page.
• Suggested for Me: This section allows users to see person-suggested items. The recipient can bookmark the opportunity or indicate that they aren’t interested.
• Personalized Recommendation: these are powered by SAP Business AI and can recommend learning for users based on their profile information, growth portfolio attributes, and their system interactions and activities.

It is possible to include skills-based learning in the Personalization Recommendations sections. To include skill-based learning, the following prerequisites must be met:

• Enable the Talent Intelligence Hub.
• Enable the associated skills and other attributes with your learning activities, such as Items and Programs.
• Users have maintained skills and attributes in their Growth Portfolio.
  Note

  The Growth Portfolio displays learning suggestions for skills and the current proficiency level under the new Advance My Proficiency section.

SAP Business AI utilizes user data to retrieve, analyze, and identify patterns. The data is used to train machine learning algorithms, resulting in personalized and unique recommendations for the users that enhance job performance, foster learning from each other, and improve job competency.
