Plan Versions:
You can maintain any number of plan versions. Plan versions allow you to create several organizational plans in the system at the same time. You can simulate and compare various scenarios using plan versions.
One of these plan versions represents the active organizational plan and is flagged as the active integration plan version. [PL0G PLOG1]
Object Types: There are 5 Basic object types; each has its own object type key.
Org Unit (O):
Organizational units describe the various units in your enterprises that are usually structured according to tasks and functions.
E.g.: Company Departments.
Job(C):
Jobs are general classifications for sets of tasks or functions that an employee is required to perform.
Positions (S):
Positions are specifications tied to the organizational units and are held by the individual in the enterprise.
E.g.: Sales Managers, HR managers
Cost Centers (K):
Cost centers can be related to Org. Units and Positions.
Tasks (T):
Tasks describe the responsibilities of jobs & Positions
E.g.: Job – Manager – Tasks – managers department – Coordinates meetings
Work Centers (A):
Work centers describe the physical locations where tasks are performed.
E.g.: Corporate office plant.
Other Object types:
Budget – BU – Designed to Org. Unit
Qualification – Q – Assigned to Persons, Jobs, and Positions.
Object Relationships:
- You can create relationships between the individual elements in your organizational plan. There are different types of relationships as the types of connections between elements vary.
- The relationships between basic object types are defined in the standard SAP system and should not be changed.
- You can define your own relationships. The range AAA to ZZZ is reserved for relationships created by the customer.
- Relationships between objects are reciprocal. It a job describes a position, in turn, will be described by the job. These relationships are distinguished by the identification ‘A’ & ‘B’.
Technical identification of relationships:
A relationship may also be one-sided. Relationships to objects of an external object type (cost center in controlling for example ) are one-sided, that is, they only go in one direction.
Object relationships: Org Units
Object relationships: Jobs and Positions
- When a position is described by a job it will inherit certain characteristics of the job such as associated tasks. (Principle of inheritance).
- A job may describe several positions but a position may only be described by one job.
Other relationships between Positions
- A/B004 – “ is subordinate to /is the disciplinary supervisor of “
- A/B005 – “Is subordinate to / is the supervisor of”
- A/B210 – “ Substitutes with profile/ substitute with profile” (workflow)
Object relationships: The organizational Plan
The relationships between the basic object types give rise to structures.
Eg: Org. Unit
Positions
Employee
Object Characteristics:
Once you have created the structure along with objects and relationships. You can assign additional characteristics to the objects.
Object Characteristics: Infotypes
Object characteristics are maintained in info types

Relationship Belongs to , reports to
Additional Characteristics

Address First Address, Second Address
Object Characteristics: Object ID
When an object is created, an object ID must be assigned
- Internal Number assignment [IN]: Automatic allocation of object ID by the system
- External Number Assignment[EX]: Allocation of object ID by an administrator.
Object Characteristics: Status
- Every infotype is assigned a status
- Objects can be created in either planned or active status
- You must assign a status to every object or info type you create. You do not however have to use all the statuses. Many users use only the active status.
- Report RHAKTI00 lets you change the status of several objects at the same time.
Object Characteristics: Validity dates
Validity dates:
- Allows you to define the life span of an object or infotype record.
- Identify changes to your organization while retaining historical data.
Allows you to evaluate the organizational structure on key dates.
Object Characteristics: Time Constrains
Class 1: Information must exist for the entire life cycle of the object but can be changed.
E.g.: Object must have a short name. This information must exist uninterrupted but can be changed.
Class 2: Information is optional but can exist only once within a user-defined period.
E.g.: A position may only have one vacancy info type at a time.
Class 3: Information is optional and the number of data records that can exist within a user-defined period.
E.g.: Sales department can be related with the number of positions simultaneously.
Class 3 with Additional Conditions: Information is optional, and the number of data records that can exist within a user-defined period is dependent on the type of target object.
E.g.: A position can be described by only one Job but by a number of tasks.

Simple Maintenance-System automatically creates relationships
Structural Graphics-System automatically creates relationships
Description: Allows you to append long text description
Vacancy: Allows you to identify position vacancies. A vacancy occurs when a position is not occupied either currently or at some point in the future but is to be occupied again.
Positions cannot be flagged simultaneously as vacant and obsolete if a vacant position is flagged is obsolete, the vacancy is delimited at the start of the validity of the obsolete flag [minus one day].
