SAP HCM & Organisational Management

For Nova, SAP HCM is the authoritative HR source: the personnel master drives the joiner/mover/leaver process, and Organizational Management supplies org units, positions, and their holders straight from the SAP tables HRP1000 and HRP1001.

Capabilities

What Nova does with SAP HCM & Organizational Management

  • Validity periods

    Reads personnel master data with SAP validity periods: Nova understands infotype values with date ranges and distinguishes current values from future-dated changes.

  • Simulation preview

    Simulation preview before every sync: you see joiners, movers, and leavers with the exact field changes before Nova writes anything.

  • Rehires

    Detects rehires by personnel number and email and reactivates the existing profile instead of creating a duplicate.

  • Future-dated changes

    Future-dated changes, such as an upcoming department transfer or a leave date, are stored and take effect automatically on their due date.

  • Org tree from OM

    Synchronizes the org tree from SAP Organizational Management: org units, positions, and position holders, optionally scoped to a subtree.

  • Field mapping

    Field mapping between SAP attributes and Nova fields is configured in the admin interface, including your own custom fields.

Technology and process

Integration and identity lifecycle

Technical integration

Personnel data arrives as SAP infotypes through a virtual directory server (LDAP) or a staging table; the organizational structure is read via RFC directly from HRP1000 and HRP1001, with an RFC ping as the connection check. Access to Organizational Management is read-only by design: Nova writes nothing into your HCM.

In the identity lifecycle

This source sets the pace of the lifecycle: new hires create users, changes of department or position trigger the mover routine, and leave dates deactivate accounts automatically through a daily scan; access requests and recertification work with the current org and position data from SAP.
