What is SAP HCM?

Full name

SAP Human Capital Management (on-premise)

Category

Human Resources

Typical roles

SAP HCM Consultant, SAP Payroll Consultant, SAP Time Management Consultant

SAP HCM is the on-premise HR solution covering personnel administration, organisational management, time and payroll. Existing HR landscapes may be maintained while planning a transition to SuccessFactors.

SAP HCM on-premise and SuccessFactors cloud use different architectures; payroll transition choices require a country-by-country assessment.

A practical SAP HCM engagement begins with an inventory of the installed product and release, affected business processes, connected systems and decision-makers. From there, the team can define scope, data and integration requirements, testing responsibilities and a realistic transition or support plan. This is legacy expertise: confirm current SAP maintenance and product availability against your own contract and roadmap.
