Creating Titles

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to create titles.

Creating Titles

Titles are used to group similar positions that are related to the job function across an organization. Positions that are related by a title generally perform similar functions and management responsibilities within an organization. Therefore, companies often use a title to identify and search for positions.

When used in conjunction with SAP SuccessFactors Incentive Management, you can use titles to link related positions for the purpose of assigning compensation plans.

Create Titles

Steps

  1. Navigate to Organization → Titles.

  2. Choose Create ().

  3. The Add New Title screen opens. Add the following details about the title. The required fields are noted.

    • Name (Required): the name that is used to reference this title, for example, "Regional VP" or " Sales Executive Level 1."
    • Description: a brief description of the title.
    • Business Units: the related business unit. This feature provides an extra layer of data access security by segregating compensation data for different parts of the corporate structure.
