Why HR planning using SAP Analytics Cloud?

SAP Analytics Cloud’s planning solution enables companies to effectively plan and simulate their workforce. The tool makes it possible to generate a range of scenarios and analyse their impact on workforce planning. It helps companies to make the optimum use of resources, identify bottlenecks early and avoid surplus capacity. Integration into the SAP Analytics Cloud gives companies access to real-time data, in order to make well-founded decisions. HR cost planning with SAP Analytics Cloud is a valuable tool to maximise the labour force’s efficiency and productivity.

What does human resources cost planning in SAP Analytics Cloud include?

Our planning solution includes the following standard modules:

Module: Human resources planning (FTE)

  • Human resources planning (FTE) with new positions, integrated comments function, transfers, terminations and batch/mass reports.
  • Possible interactions within the tool.
  • Known changes are automatically made on the due date.
  • Simple simulations for different scenarios through mass modification.

Module: Human resources cost planning (PEX):

  • The data set can be expanded by human resources costs (base salary, bonuses, one-off payments) based on human resources planning.
  • Integration of OASI/IV calculation.
  • Simulation of pay rises for two successive years (linear extrapolation).
  • The standard planning solution can be expanded as desired according to your requirements.

Frequently asked questions

Is it possible to connect other systems to the SAP Analytics Cloud?

Yes, all peripheral systems can be connected to the SAP Analytics Cloud in order to carry out comprehensive analyses – including those that are non-SAP-specific.

Can additional key figures be incorporated into standard human resources cost planning?

Additional fields from your SAP SuccessFactors (or even other master data systems) can be incorporated directly into the planning. The solution offers standard content that is configured in your SAP SuccessFactors.

How can planning data be retrieved?

Depending on requirements, there is the option to reintegrate plan data, such as permanent positions, into SAP SuccessFactors again. Alternatively, the plan data can be extracted from the SAP Analytics Cloud at any time.

Do I have to buy new SAP Analytics Cloud licences for this?

No additional licences are required if you already have SAP Analytics Cloud planning licences. We would be happy to provide you with a quotation if you do not have any appropriate licences.

How long does such a project take?

The best practice planning solution requires 20 days as standard but, depending on your specific requirements and add-ons, can be adapted flexibly to your wishes.
