How do You Use SuccessFactors in SAP?

 About SAP SuccessFactors

SuccessFactors is a SAP product suite that provides a cloud-based solution for all sizes of enterprises in more than 60 sectors to handle different HR operations such as business alignment, people performance, recruiting, and learning activities. SAP SuccessFactors is a cloud-based human capital management (HCM) system built on the Software as a Service (SaaS) concept.

You can learn about the core principles of SuccessFactors, as well as its architecture and key components, in the SAP SuccessFactors Online Training. The training is for anybody interested in learning the fundamentals of SAP SuccessFactors, especially those who work with business applications.

A staged plan may be the best option in most circumstances when firms want to move elements of their HCM Procedures to the cloud. Either the organization migrates some elements of its HCM operations to the cloud (for example, recruiting) while keeping the core operations on-premise, or they want to migrate their whole HCM solution to the cloud in stages, based on particular locations. In any situation, seamless and tight integration between cloud and on-premise processes is crucial.

The SAP SuccessFactors and SAP ERP Connection is Cloud-to-on-premise.

Different Integration packages that support the integration of SAP ERP-based operations with SAP SuccessFactors cloud-based HCM processes may be found in the Integration Content Catalog.

Technical Landscape

Web services communication is an apparent way to link SAP ERP with SAP Cloud Platform Integration (via the SOAP adapter). SAP SuccessFactors provides numerous API alternatives to technically interface with and link to other systems on the opposite side of the connection, including the following:

• SFAPI: This is a SOAP API for importing and exporting data from SAP SuccessFactors. It allows you to do CRUD activities (create, read, upgrade, and delete) on SAP SuccessFactors entities.
• OData API: This API allows you to use OData to access SAP SuccessFactors material.
• SAP Cloud Platform Integration: The SAP SuccessFactors adapter, which becomes part of the SAP Cloud Platform Integration standard adapter offer, provides a simple and easy approach to access these APIs.              

SAP SuccessFactors Adapter

Depending on whatever API you wish to connect to the SAP SuccessFactors system using, there are several versions of the SAP SuccessFactors adapter (and the communication direction). A list of these variations can be found below:

• Sender SOAP
• Sender REST
• Receiver SOAP
• Receiver REST
• Receiver OData V2/V4

Each SAP SuccessFactors adapter type has its own configurable UI for straightforward access to SAP SuccessFactors entities. After you've chosen a SAP SuccessFactors system to connect to, you can quickly choose entities and specify particular operations on them using the adapter's setup UI, all without writing a single line of code.

Conclusion

Integration with SAP SuccessFactors does not have to be difficult. Different Integration packages that support the integration of SAP ERP-based operations with SAP SuccessFactors cloud-based HCM processes may be found in the Integration Content Catalog.
