"Manage Workforce" app and "Scheduler Configutation" App

[alex1967]

I m trying to setup the Workforce via "Manage Workforce" to maintain the Skill Matrix via "Manage Skill Matrix" but during the Setup of the workforce it is required to select a cost center to which the resource/Workcenter is assigned.

So, as we are not having Successfactors or an SAP ME, what would be the best way to synchronize the Cost center from S4 to DM. 

Thanks for your help.

Hello, @alex1967 

Since you don’t have SuccessFactors or SAP ME, consider building a custom integration layer. This involves creating a middleware or custom application that connects S/4HANA and DM.
Here’s how it could work:
Data Extraction from S/4HANA: Extract cost center data from your S/4HANA system. You can use APIs, custom scripts, or ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes.
Data Transformation: Transform the extracted data into a format compatible with DM. This might involve mapping fields, adjusting data structures, and ensuring consistency.
Data Loading into DM: Load the transformed data into DM. Again, APIs or custom scripts can help achieve this.
Scheduled Updates: Set up scheduled jobs to keep the data synchronized. For example, nightly updates or real-time triggers based on specific events.
Master Data Integration Service (MDIS):
If you’re using SAP Cloud Platform, consider MDIS. It’s designed for master data synchronization between SAP systems and non-SAP systems.
You can configure MDIS to replicate cost center data from S/4HANA to DM. It provides a standardized approach and handles data transformation.
Refer to SAP documentation for detailed steps on MDIS configuration see here: https://community.sap.com/t5/human-capital-management-blogs-by-sap/configuring-the-replica/bcbsfl/tion-of-cost-centers-from-sap-s-4-hana-cloud-to-sap/ba-p/13502169.

Hybrid Integration Models:
The article titled “The Core Hybrid Integration Model on the Example of Cost Centers” (linked in the sources) discusses various options for integrating cost centers.
It covers scenarios like replication of cost centers from SAP ERP to Employee Central (EC), assignment of organizational objects to cost centers, and more.

 I hope this info is helpful to you.

Best Regard,

Hi,

Manage Workforce is supposed to work with SAP SuccessFactors only.
See Integration with SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central and Schedule Replication of Workforce Data for more details.
