SAP HCM - A Complete Tutorial

Chapter 2. Recruitment Configuration

In this chapter, we will learn how the Recruitment submodule is configured to map the business requirements in the SAP system. We will also learn how to configure the recruitment module and also the integration aspects with other modules such as organization management. Throughout the recruitment component, data is captured in separate databases such as PBxxxx, where xxxx is the infotype number and PB denotes the applicants. Recruitment infotypes are in the range of 4000-4999. Some useful recruitment-related infotypes are as follows:

4000: This refers to an applicant's action
4001: This refers to the applications
4002: This refers to a vacancy assignment
4003: This refers to an applicant's activities
4004: This refers to the status of an applicant's activity
4005: This refers to an applicant's personnel number

Advertising vacancies

The different channels that are used to fill the vacant positions are of prime importance for the stakeholders. The following are the different types of recruitment instruments that clients make use of:

Recruitment Instruments	Description
Internal postings	These are the ways to look internally for possible candidates to fill the position
Employee referral program	This is a cost-effective and efficient mode to track potential candidates
Classified advertising	These are jobs posted in newspapers
Employment agencies and search firms	These are consultancies that are tied up with companies, and they specialize in identifying the right candidate for the job

There are two features that can be checked: the first one is PRELI, and the other one is PRELR. They are checked by navigating to SPRO | Personnel Management | Recruitment | Basic settings | Set up integration with other components. The following screenshot demonstrates this:

What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.

Good book

good book but, it does not cover so many topics on time and payroll sides.It is good for beginners.johnwww.v-basic.net

Rahul Gomez Sep 13, 2014

Well I purchased this book for my KIndle and let me tell you one thing- thank god I did not overpay and purchase the more expensive hardcopy because this is one useless book. The author starts off with Recruitment and skips Organizational Management completely which is really confusing as most of the configurations have not been done you end up getting an error message every step of the way, most of the steps are vague and horrible some of the SAP and SAP Easy access paths mentioned are incorrect.This is probably one of the worst books for students and not a very good book for professionals. PK Agarwals books although they are not properly structured nor student friendly have a better description and it's easier to understand when compared to this over expensive complete waste of money of a book!
