%bject Types

What is an object ?

It represents each information class in an

organizational plan.

%bject type is identified by a combination of planversion* object type* and object I,

What are the components of an object?

6. I, N* a short and long te$t defining the e$istenceof the objectC. tructural relationships between the object andother objectsD. Third component is represented by the objectcharacteristics.

What is an organisational unit #%&?

in an enterprise that are usually structured accordingto tas/s and functions. These are used to modelstructures in "ersonnel !dministration or "ayroll

!ccounting* for e$ample. %rganizational units arerelated to cost centers from +ontrolling.

What is a =ob #+&

=ob represents a uni(ue classification ofresponsibilities in an organization. When we create

jobs* we should consider what specific tas/s andre(uirements are associated with the individual jobs.

Which are the application components where jobs areused?

3 =ob and "osition ,escription3 hift "lanning3 "ersonnel +ost "lanning3 +areer and uccession "lanning

What is the difference between =ob Be(uirement and =obPualification?

=ob re(uirement represents list of s/ills ande$perience re(uired in order to be suitable in aposition* job* tas/ or wor/ center* whereas job(ualification represents only list of s/ills.

What is a "osition #&

"osition is held by employees. ! position inherits ajob9s tas/s but we can also define additional tas/srelated to duties performed specifically by thatposition.

If characteristics of a job are changed* this has aneffect on the position as position inheritscharacteristics from =ob. "ositions can be 677Qfilled* partially filled* or vacant. %ne position mayalso be shared by a number of employees* each wor/ingless than full time. 5or e$ample* two employees canhold F7Q and A7Q of a position.

What is automatic object inheritance?

When we create a new position then that must berelated to the corresponding job. Through thisrelationship* an object automatically inherits theattributes of another object if the two are related incertain ways.

What is the advantage of object inheritance?

!utomatic inheritance can be used to advantage when


13/23

creating large number of similar objects. Thissignificantly reduces data entry time* as tas/s andcharacteristics do not have to be assigned to eachposition separately.

What is the difference between job and position?

=ob is single and position is multiple. We can definemultiple positions against a single job not viceversa.

Where do you create organisational units* jobs*position and tas/?

"erson #"&

"erson #employee& hold positions in the organizationalstructure* which is governed by %rganizational

Management. "erson characteristics are maintained in"ersonnel !dministration and are lin/ed to anorganizational plan through their position assignment.

! person can fill a position 677Q or partially. Thisdepends on the number of wor/ing hours assigned to theposition and on the person9s wor/ schedule.

What is staffing percentage?

The staffing percentage refers to the wor/ capacity ofthe person assigned to the position. If the staffingpercentage of the person is greater than there(uirements of the position* the position is

overstaffed. If one or more holders do not fulfill there(uirements of the position* the position isunderstaffed.

What is cost center #>&?

It is maintained in 5inancial !ccounting and can belin/ed to either organizational units or positions.+ost center assignments are inherited along theorganizational structure

Why do we always attach cost center to organizationalunits? What will happen if cost center is assignedagainst positions?

What is a Tas/ #T& and how do you assign it aposition?

It describes the duties and responsibilities performedin a job and position. Tas/s can be classified underthe following aspects


14/23

3 !s wor/flow components to monitor cross'applicationprocesses3 !s personnel management tools* to describe jobs andpositions

!ll tas/s are contained in a tas/ catalog. The tas/catalog lists all tas/s that e$ist in a particular

period. The catalog also shows the relationships thate$ist between tas/s if tas/ groups have been defined.

If you plan to relate tas/s to positions* you shouldfirst relate the tas/s that all positions have incommon to the corresponding job. When you create aposition based on a job* the tas/s will thenautomatically be transferred to the position. If youassign the same tas/s to different jobs* you can usedifferent weightings* which gives you more informationwhen analyzing job descriptions.

Tas/ Group is a collection of conveniently associatedtas/s* perhaps* because they are usually performed bythe same person. ! tas/ group can be used to (uic/ly

relate many tas/s to a job or to a position.
