Hi,
I have attached a file that provides an overview of SAP-HR. SAP is a software designed not only for HR but also for all departments. SAP is an ERP-based software.

Hi,
What an overwhelming response! I have enclosed another file from a company abroad where SAP is already in use. Please review the file to see how they utilize it and the benefits they derive from it. This additional information should assist you further.
If anything else comes to mind, feel free to compose an email. And please, there is no need for thanks; helping someone a little is not rocket science.
With warm regards,

Hi,
Somebody also asked for interview questions for SAP-HR. Here are some questions. By the way, SAP is more based on infotypes and other parts like creating employee codes, doing full and final settlement, company allocation, making pay, etc.
1. What is meant by payscale structure? How did you configure payscale structure? (I said I created various payroll areas and defaulted them using the feature ABKRS. It seemed he was expecting more than this from me.)
A: Pay Scale Structure means the creation of Payroll area, Pay scale type, area, group, and levels with EmpSub group grouping for PCR & CAP's.
2. How do you import payscale data from non-SAP to SAP? (Somebody told me that there's a tool called LEGACY to transfer non-SAP data to SAP. I said the same. Is it the same for payroll also? He wanted a clearer explanation of how I did it.)
A: Yes, you have to specify from which transaction code you are transferring data from Non-SAP into SAP.
3. How to assign a person two different pers numbers and allocate him two different comp. codes and generate a single invoice? Suppose for a person, I have two pers numbers A and B. I want to send him to one company in the morning and the other in the noon. How should I do this? (I only know one person can be given more than one position by giving a percentage in OM. I said that this process is concurrent employment.)
A: No, even with Concurrent employment, it is not possible to assign two personnel numbers for one person. You can assign him to work with two Personnel ID Numbers with the same number and make an invoice.
4. What is meant by a schema? (I said I'm only aware that it is a set of rules which is copied and renamed, but never worked on that.)
A: No, you have to explain that a schema is a set of instructions (Programs) modified as per requirements, and its process is to collect the data from all the defined instructions with sub-schemas and PCRs. As I was not authorized to work on them, I know just the process of schemas only.
5. How do you restrict the data to be entered in the payroll area?
A: Data is entered in a payroll area, but the employees are defined depending on their payscale structure. If you are restricting any data to be entered for pay structures, this is indirectly for the payroll area.
6. What is meant by authorization? Did you ever work on it?
A: Authorizations are the transactions given to the end-users or the developers for only some areas to work, infotypes, transaction codes, org units, and others depending on the requirement of the client or the developing enterprise. Check this at PFCG transaction code.
7. What is the difference between Indian and US Payroll? (I said each of them has its own ITs and the taxation differs.)
A: Yes, it is correct, and you also have to mention the benefits which are more important in the US. In the US, unemployment tax, garnishments, residence taxation, work tax, and others are significant. You need to provide a broad explanation to show your expertise.
8. How do you differentiate Tax for different countries?
A: Taxation involves creating various user exits, which means it all happens from the new versions which SAP releases.
9. What is meant by slab? How is Indian slab and US slab?
A: Grouping of employees depending on their allowances and perks is known as the slab system, which also applies to Professional Tax.
10. What are Dynamic Actions? Give a few examples. What are the ITs you used in them?
Dynamic actions are triggered by the system as a result of some personnel action. The system automatically displays the info type when a change in personnel data affects another info type. The main purpose of dynamic actions is to maintain consistent and coherent data. These actions are started automatically by the system, unlike personnel actions that you initiate yourself. An example is when you carry out an action like hiring, where you need to populate a set of info types. Your initial entry in infotype 0000 is a personnel action, and the system automatically displays the next infotypes, a result of dynamic action.
What is Recruitment Cycle?
Recruitment Cycle is the complete process of recruitment from identifying vacancies, displaying them, notifying applicants, screening and interviewing them, selecting, recruiting, and appointing them, all constituting the recruitment cycle.
What is Qualification Deficiency? How can you identify if a person lacks certain skills/qualifications?
Generally, required qualifications are stored in Required Qualifications (Infotype 5129). Any deficient qualifications can be viewed in this infotype.
What is IT 41 used for? How do you default IT 41?
IT 41 refers to Date Specifications (Infotype 0041). It records information related to date types used in reports and evaluations. This infotype can be utilized in payroll and the leave program. If more than twelve date specifications are needed for an employee simultaneously, time constraint 3 can be applied.
If the client wants the vacancy to be displayed on a website as well as ESS, how should you do it?
Employee Self-Service (ESS) enables employees to manage their HR-related data in the Enterprise Portal, including benefits, working time, career and job information, personal data, travel management, corporate information, and life and work events. Access to vacancies is granted based on authorizations, generally allowing all employees to view them.
What is internal recruitment?
Internal recruitment involves searching for internal applicants, often facilitated by tools like profile match-up when integrated with personal development. In recruitment processes, internal applicants are represented by 'P' as a person and 'AP' as an external person.
What are the problems generally faced while posting results to FICO?
Mismatches in posted amounts are common issues faced while posting results to FICO.
What is a controlling area, and how is it assigned?
A controlling area is managed by a FI person and is used for costing purposes, typically assigned based on the fiscal variant.
What is the purpose of creating a symbolic account, and can one symbolic account be assigned to multiple wage types?
The creation of a symbolic account depends on the payroll requirements, such as defining salary heads like expense accounts. A symbolic account can be assigned to multiple wage types if necessary.
What is a report variant for off-cycle activities, and what is done in this step?
A report variant for off-cycle activities is used to save input field parameters for future use, ensuring consistency in reporting processes.
What infotypes must be created at the time of hiring using PA40 and cannot be maintained later with PA30?
Creation of infotypes is essential during hiring to capture critical employee data accurately from the beginning.
If we have to create multiple positions, what method or tool can we use to avoid errors due to manual creation?
Multiple positions can be efficiently created using tools like LSMW or batch programs for TCODE PP01 or PPOCE.
What is the landscape in an SAP project, and what does it entail?
The landscape in an SAP project refers to the technical environment, including servers and systems, managed by Basis administrators.
What is the role of an administrator in PA?
An administrator in Personnel Administration is responsible for managing access, permissions, and activities related to HR processes such as recruitment, time management, and payroll.
What does Go-live entail, and what is the role of a functional consultant in it?
Go-live involves transferring data from the development server to the production server after thorough testing in the quality server. The functional consultant plays a crucial role in ensuring a smooth transition and functionality of the system.
Best of luck for your interview.
Preeti, you may check this website for SAP-HR courses in Bangalore. The cost for a full SAP-HR course is not less than 2 lakh rupees. Different parts like payroll may have varying fee structures. Feel free to contact the provided numbers or email addresses for further details.

Greetings to all HR professionals,
I am interested in pursuing SAP, but I have some queries. Is it important to undertake SAP training only from Genovate or Siemens? If I choose to enroll in a program at a local, mediocre-level institute, will I still have good opportunities?
Please guide me.
