Background

Organizations shifting to cloud-based HR systems needed a seamless connection between Employee Central and ECC Payroll.

Accurate, timely replication of master data was essential to support core HR and payroll processes.

Compliance and data integrity requirements demanded automated, rule-compliant integration solutions.

Business Problem

Lack of synchronization between SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central and SAP ECC Payroll caused inconsistent employee master data, leading to payroll inaccuracies and compliance risks.

Manual updates were time-consuming, error-prone, and created delays in payroll processing and employee dissatisfaction.

Implementing a reliable, automated process to map, transfer, and validate complex HR data elements from EC to ECC with support for conditional logic and delta replication.

Ensuring compatibility with ECC’s existing payroll processes while providing robust error handling and logging for efficient issue resolution.

  • Configuring the BIB framework with BC sets and transformation templates to accurately map complex data elements like personal details, job information, and pay components from EC to ECC Infotypes.

  • Leveraging the CompoundEmployee API in Employee Central to extract master data in formats compliant with InfoPorter standards.

  • Routing extracted data securely through SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI) or Boomi to enable reliable and scalable transmission to ECC.

  • Implementing inbound services using PA_SE_IN in ECC to populate Infotypes 0000, 0001, 0002, 0008, 0014, and 0015 for payroll processing readiness.

  • Enabling delta replication, automated error logging, and conditional transformation rules to maintain data accuracy, consistency, and auditability throughout the replication process.

Technical Challenges

Automating 401(k) Data Exchange with ABAP and SFTP Integration

Built ABAP interfaces and scheduled secure SFTP transfers to automate 401(k) data exchange with Fidelity. Inbound files were parsed using ABAP logic, and SAP Infotypes 0169 and 0378 were auto-updated to keep payroll data accurate.

  • Configured the BIB framework with BC sets and transformation templates to map EC employee data to ECC Infotypes like 0000, 0001, 0002, 0008, 0014, and 0015.

  • Utilized the Compound Employee API in Employee Central to extract master data aligned with InfoPorter standards.

  • Integrated SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI) or Boomi middleware for secure, scalable data routing to ECC.

  • Implemented inbound services in ECC using PA_SE_IN to populate Infotypes and trigger downstream processes, including time evaluation and payroll
