SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Global Implementations: Three Keys for Seamless Employment Tracking

Human Capital Management Created on July 23, 2019 Last updated on December 7th, 2023 at 9:15 am by Rizing Staff

When your organization is looking to implement SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central in multiple countries, there are special considerations and important functionality on top of typical key implementation resources that need to be utilized to ensure seamless employment tracking no matter where they may be working.

Sometimes employees work in multiple countries and sometimes they hold multiple roles. A global Employee Central implementation must ensure that however that employee is being viewed in the system—by certain jobs or locations—the information can tell a story about the employee’s lifecycle with the organization.

There are three things that you can do to ensure that employee data is telling that story. We’ll start with functionalities within Employee Central that help with global scenarios before diving into data migration and employee IDs.

Related: 4 Tips from Sabre’s SAP SuccessFactors Implementation

Identify Cross-Company & Cross-Country Scenarios

With global Employee Central implementations, there are employee movement scenarios that occur which do not normally exist in non-global Employee Central implementations. Employees within organizations that have a global footprint have choices to work temporarily or permanently in other countries outside of their home country.

Within Employee Central, there are features that allow organizations to manage such employee movements:

• Global Assignment
• Rehire with New Employment
• Concurrent Employment

Global Assignment  is normally used when an employee moves on a temporary assignment in another country within their organization with the intention of moving back to their home country with a definitive return date.  Example: Employee located in Europe goes to work on a special project for 6 months at a location in New Zealand.

Rehire with New Employment  is used when an employee moves permanently to another Company or Country within their organization. Example: Employee located in Europe goes to work permanently at a location in New Zealand.

Concurrent Employment  is used when an employee occupies two or more jobs/positions within their organization within the same country. Example: Employee located in Canada working for a school board who is a bus driver and a custodian within a school.

Although these functionalities could be used for non-global organizations, we normally see these scenarios for global Employee Central implementations. Some organizations/countries have policies or legalities that require employees to receive a new employee number when moving legal entities even within the same country. Rehire with New Employment would also be used in these scenarios even for non-global organizations.

It is very important to vet these scenarios, especially during global implementations, so that the appropriate Employee Central functionalities are including as part of the project scope. These capabilities allow organizations to manage these scenarios while keeping a global linkage between multiple employments that exist for the same employee. Organizations should take advantage of these Global Assignment, Rehire with New Employment, and Concurrent Employment functionalities as they will provide a seamless historical view, reporting capability, and integration to downstream systems for global scenarios.

Identify Data Migration Impacts for Global Scenarios and Rollout

Although Global Assignment, Rehire with New Employment and Concurrent Employment functionalities are very useful in Employee Central, there are also some challenges that need to be considered when migrating employee populations to Employee Central.

Currently, there is a limitation in Employee Central where we cannot migrate multiple employments an employee may have using standard import templates unless they are global assignment or concurrent employment scenarios. This also gets a bit trickier when we are dealing with phased deployments by country where some countries already use SuccessFactors for talent processes.

With that being said, there are ways to ensure these linkages are kept by using a manual process and employee number assignment as part of the Rehire with New Employment functionality. It will be important for your data migration team to evaluate the impact that multiple employments will have on the data migration process and testing.

Identify your employee ID strategy

It is very important to identify your employee ID strategy to ensure alignment with the standard Employee Central best practices for ID assignment.

  Employee Central

• User ID  should reference an employee’s personnel number.
• Username  should reference an employee’s username that is used as part of their internal identity management solution which will identify them in SuccessFactors. It is also possible that some customers will log into SuccessFactors directly using this username.
• Person ID External should be a global ID that never changes for an employee and is used to link different employments an employee may have between countries or companies within their organization. These scenarios include global assignments, concurrent employment, and rehire with new employment. This ID is usually set to the first personnel number an employee is assigned when entering an organization.

Relation to SAP HCM or Employee Central Payroll  

• User ID  should reference an employee’s personnel number in SAP HCM or Employee Central Payroll.
• Username  should reference an employee’s username in SAP HCM or Employee Central Payroll which is linked to info type 0105—Subtype 0001.
• Person ID External  should be a global ID that never changes for an employee and is used to link different employments an employee may have between countries or companies within their organization. These scenarios include global assignments, concurrent employment and rehire with new employment. This ID is linked to info type 0709 as the person ID in SAP HCM or Employee Central Payroll which links all employments.

It is very important to map out your employee ID strategy to ensure it will work for Employee Central and integration to other SAP and non-SAP systems.  For some customers, this becomes more of a challenge if they use SuccessFactors for Talent processes prior to Implementing Employee Central and decisions that were already made for SuccessFactors User ID and Username do not align with best practice.  There are mechanisms in place to control this mapping between Employee Central and SAP HCM/Employee Central Payroll, but this will add further complexity for integration points to systems outside of this scope.

By keeping these three topics in mind, customers can ensure a more successful global Employee Central implementation. Ensuring employee data is seamless and linked across countries and across roles will make it easier for reporting and planning on an HR level.

Vislink reports second quarter 2024 financial and operational results.

Q2 Revenue Jumps 73% Year-Over-Year to $8.7 Million, First Six Months Revenue Reaches $17.3 Million

Vislink Lands Government Orders and Expands Market Reach with Assignment of NATO Stock Numbers and OEM Supplier Approvals

Mt. Olive, NJ, Aug. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vislink Technologies, Inc. (“Vislink” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: VISL ), a global technology leader in the capture, delivery, and management of high-quality, live video and associated data in the media and entertainment, public safety, and defense markets, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Revenue increased 73% to $8.7 million, up from $5.0 million in the prior year period. The revenue increase resulted from strong growth in sales to both MilGov and Live Production customers.

Gross margin increased to 56%, up from 53% in the prior year period. The year-over-year improvement in gross margin reflects greater operating efficiency and a higher mix of new products. Gross margin performance was slightly offset by delayed revenue recognition of higher margin services revenue due to longer customer integration and installation cycles with large MilGov customers.

Net loss improved to $(2.3) million, or $(0.93) per share, from $(3.0) million, or $(1.27) per share, in the prior year period. This improvement is largely attributed to increased revenue and improved gross margins when compared to the prior period.

Cash and short-term investments were $11.5 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $14.2 million at March 31, 2024. Longer acceptance timeframes for new products delivered to MilGov customers caused a greater proportion of working capital to be concentrated in customer accounts. Working capital was $29.0 million at the end of the second quarter compared to $31.8 million at December 31, 2023. The Company expects to continue enhancing working capital performance by optimizing inventory management and accelerating customer acceptance of new products.

Second Quarter 2024 and Recent Operational Highlights

Delivered initial shipments for significant orders with MilGov customers, including U.S. Customs and Border Protection. These orders demonstrate Vislink’s ability to convert Broadcast Microwave Services, LLC (“BMS”) customers and meet the stringent technical requirements of MilGov clients, including installation and integration with airborne assets.

Grew weighted sales pipeline to $51 million, reflecting strong demand across all markets.

Strengthened MilGov market position by securing NATO Stock Numbers for its AVDS products , facilitating streamlined procurement and distribution within NATO member countries. This milestone raises Vislink’s credibility and market access in the defense sector and augments Vislink’s achieving approved supplier status from three global aerospace OEMs earlier in the year.

Service/software revenue was 8% of total revenue for 2024 with a continued focus on leveraging the infrastructure platform to drive recurring revenues through the LinkMatrix platform.

Accelerated expansion into the large and growing Drone Command and Control (Drone C2) market , increasing its R&D investment, driven by high customer interest in the rapidly growing Drone C2 market, focusing on manned and unmanned applications. The Company continues demonstrating its ability to leverage its current IP portfolio and adapt its technology to support emerging use cases.

Appointed Donnie Gilliam as Vice President of Operations to enhance operational efficiency and drive successful customer outcomes.

Management Commentary   “Vislink’s second quarter results show our continuing progress, highlighting the effectiveness of our strategic initiatives and the continued execution of our growth plans,” stated Mickey Miller, CEO of Vislink. “We achieved a 73% increase in revenue, reaching $8.7 million, driven by continued advancement in both the MilGov and Live Broadcast markets. Our weighted sales pipeline grew to $51 million, reflecting strong customer optimism for our refreshed product portfolio. Recent shipments to U.S. Customs and Border Protection and other MilGov End Users and OEMs demonstrate our ability to seamlessly integrate existing AVDS products with assets acquired from BMS to expand our customer base and capabilities.

“As we progress through the second half of the year, we are driving innovation by increasing our investment in R&D in multiple areas. Our developments in AVDS and unmanned and manned drone systems demonstrate how we are strengthening our position in aerial and terrestrial solutions. These efforts are expected to improve our market position and ability to capitalize on the growing demand for Unmanned Control, Command, and Payload solutions. Recent significant orders and market penetration underscore our momentum and expanding impact in this exciting, high-growth market.

“With the upcoming launch of our upgraded and unified ERP system this fall, we anticipate further improvements in supply chain efficiency and operational performance. These improvements will support our ongoing efforts to enhance gross margins and reduce operating costs. While we continue to target cash flow neutrality by the end of 2024, timing may vary as we strategically prioritize incremental R&D investments that meet customer needs in high-growth markets. Our goal is to develop differentiated IP that can be leveraged for a high return on investment. We expect to offset the additional R&D investment through operational improvements that will allow us to achieve positive cash flow in 2025.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measure: EBITDA To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), we are presenting EBITDA in this earnings release and the related earnings conference call. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. We define EBITDA as our net income (loss), excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization expense and interest income and tax). We have presented EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our operating performance, establish budgets, and develop operational goals for managing our business. In particular, we believe that excluding the impact of these expenses in calculating EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core operating performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP EBITDA to GAAP net loss appears in the financial tables accompanying this press release as set forth below.
