Understanding the Career Advancement Processes

The career advancement process exists in three forms:

• Advancement date calculation SQR process (FPA005).

  Calculates the expected step or substep increment date for one employee or all employees.

• Advancement processing.

  This comprises several successive processes. All employees whose automatic step or substep increment is pending are listed and moved through collective processing.

• Advancement simulation.

  Enables you to simulate future automatic step or substep increments.

For each process, the affected employee's status must authorize career management and automatic step increment. The current step must also authorize automatic advancement.
