Do you want to maximize your SAP ERP HCM Organizational Management implementation? Learn how by going beyond the basics and delving into the key OM functions, their purpose, and how to use and customize them. You'll explore the object-oriented data model, and learn how infotypes and relationships are used to create the organizational plan. The author shows you how to take the OM model to the next level by determining which elements to use and how. You'll identify methods for maintaining this complex data structure, including OM maintenance tools to modify and transform your data. And you'll discover how to customize the user interface layout. Once you know how organizational data goes into SAP, you'll learn how to get it back out through evaluation paths and hierarchy reporting. This highly detailed book also includes coverage of OM integration with other HCM functions, including Personnel Administration and Employee and Manager Self Services. Based on the newest release, SAP ERP 6.0, this book is also relevant to earlier releases.

She's been a trainer of SAP HR courses and also presented at SAP HR 2004 and 2005 conferences on Organizational Management and other topics.
