Human
Capital Management training begins next week |
|
The next
phase of SAP implementation involves Human Capital Management (HCM) modules.
HCM describes several of SAP’s most important Human Resources
functions, such as Personnel Management (hiring, transfers,
promotions, and taxes), Time Management (timesheets), Payroll,
and Benefits. Training
on these modules begins next week in preparation for the January 2008 HCM
go-live effort. Training is being coordinated by cluster. You can view the
schedule at http://www.fultonschools.org/fcssap/training.htm.

Successful
first phase of SAP implementation touted |

A news
release was issued last week regarding Fulton’s successful first phase
of SAP implementation. Fulton is the first school system to begin SAP
implementation on-time and on-budget – no easy task for a system as
large as ours. The news
release praises Ciber for its overall management of the implementation
project and has been sent to local and national media with the goal of
broadly sharing the project’s successful start. To read it, click here. |

Quick Tip
for the Week |
|
The best
way to get your SAP questions answered is to contact the SAP Help Desk at SAPhelpdesk@fultonschools.org
or at 404-669-4956. Sure, you
could ask your colleague for a helpful hint, but by contacting the SAP Help
Desk directly we can document the specific questions and concerns that are
occurring throughout the system. This allows the SAP Project Team to see if
there are trends among questions, which will help identify any training
weaknesses or program areas that need to be addressed. |
