Clicking on ‘More’ link directs manager to relevant tab for further details.



Embedded Org Chart in MSS

Managers can now select staff or organizational entities in applications such as HCM Processes and Forms via a embedded org chart view. The organizational chart control visualizes organizational hierarchies within the managers' span of control. Users can drill-down and navigate easily through their teams, finding a more human face of their organization when they start a change request for a person, position or organizational unit.

Embedded Org Chart view available in the following MSS applications:HCM Processes & Forms:

Start Process for EmployeeStart Process for Multiple Employees

Start Organizational ProcessCompetency Management:Maintain Position Details


Background

The embedded Org Chart views are an alternative, optional frontend to the existing „Object and Data Provider“ (OADP)-based frontends in the applications mentioned.

In case the user logs-on in the Accessibility mode, the classical OADP Web Dynpro screens will automatically show up and be used by the screenreadersoftware.

Note:The embedded Org Chart view has been developed in cooperation with Nakisa. The usage of this component (technical name EMBEDDED_ORGCHART 605) is free of charge for MSS Customers.In contrast to Nakisa‘s solution extension „SAP Talent Visualization by Nakisa“ (STVN), the Embedded OrgChart for MSS is not tied to an additional license fee - it is not sold as part of STVN, but is integral part of SAP ERP EhP5).
