We are living in a very competitive era as most businesses have the option of relying on in-house professionals to get their processes done, or turn to the highly competitive area of outsourcing where you can find a variety of other professionals.

Outsourcing first started in the IT departments, and then branched out to just about every department of a business with one of the most competitive being in marketing. When it comes to marketing we know that this department does a little bit of everything, from building and managing email lists, developing content, cloud development, employing SEO techniques, managing social media presence, promoting, handling placement of new products, and the list goes on.

Today, we will look at how your in-house marketing team can get a boost from outsourced marketing.

Performance Issues

When we look at in-house marketing, we understand that time is a valuable commodity, which every business needs to utilize correctly in order to stay profitable. In-house marketing can be inadequately staffed as multiple jobs to in-house personnel. This can be trying on in-house teams, and you should be asking yourself these questions when it comes to performance.

* Do you have enough staff in-house to handle all your marketing projects?
* Does your in-house team have enough time to research current trends, and interview leaders within the industry?
* Do you have enough time to keep up with every tactical creative detail to keep up with your competitors?

Contracting Outsourcing

In a recent study by the Ascend2 group found that 62% of marketers used outsourcing along with their in-house projects. If you don’t have the time to fill the gaps in your in-house marketing, then it will be in your best interest to find outsourcing for your projects. A few options that you might consider include the following:

* Outsourced internet services – This is where you in sense are going to a company that provides a list of marketing services from SEO, graphics, programming, design, IT services, and content creation to name a few. These types of service companies are highly recommended as they have everything you need in one place at reasonable prices.
* Marketing agency – Within a marketing agency, you have access to a team that might be able to give you fresh ideas when it comes to market research. However, it can take time for an agency to see what your company is looking for, but can help utilize manpower with a team of skilled marketers.

Deciding What’s Right for Your Business

If you are currently having frustrations within your in-house marketing team it might be time to be open to the possibility of outsourcing some of your tasks to skilled outsourced internet services or a marketing agency. You could always start off with small tasks to take off the shoulders of your in-house team in order that they could focus their time on more important tasks to let you stay on top. http://bit.ly/2Dyahvo #SAP #SAPCloud #AI

1st of December marked the first SAP Inside Track in the City of Light.

Having such a great location made it impossible for some community members to stay away. People came from all over Europe, Brasil and India.

The pre-event dinner overlapped with the first snowflake in Paris.

From SAP Basis, S/4HANA, SAP Cloud Platform and many more, the diversity of topics covered made it an interesting event. Just glaze over the agenda and you’ll find something interesting regardless of which area of SAP you’re coming from.

Besides a multitude of lectures, there was also a creative Lego IoT showcase:

And even a remote speaker…

Big thanks to the organizers for making it possible and for all the attendees, both speakers and participants, for transforming it into a great event.

 

PS: We didn’t forget to have fun … a lot ! http://bit.ly/2Dv15YY #SAP #SAPCloud #AI

Hi All,

This blog will help you in creating a custom UI screen in SuccessFactors by following the steps, you can create, modify, maintain and delete custom objects easily and quickly.

Example: Assuming that there is a requirement to have a screen in SuccessFactors where they can get information about the Transports that all the employees are using to reach the work location. Currently, there are no such screen with fields to capture Transportation info of employees. Hence, we will now create a custom UI screen with required custom fields where the employees can input their information.

Step 1: Go to “Configure object definition” and create a new object using “Create new” Object Definition.

Step 2:  Input values for Code, Effective Dating, API Visibility, Label, Description as required.

Step 3: As we are going to track transport details, Iam going to add three fields in the fields section such as 1. “Is it a Public Transport” 2. “Is it Own Vehicle” 3. “Vehicle Number”

Step 4: Click “Details” and Input the Label which you want to display on the screen for all fields.

Step 5: Click “Done” and “Save”. You will get a success message as Successfully saved.

Step 6: The next step is to create a user interface. So, we’ll click on Manage Configuration UI. That’s where we create these new user interfaces and screens.

Step 7: We are going to click on Create New. We need to give our new user interface an ID and remember that ID because we are going to need to reference it later. We are going to define which object is this based on. Ours is Transport.

Now we can see a nice screen here, with all the fields we created. And let’s go ahead and hit Save.

Step 8: The next step is to go and add that screen to one of our employee screens. That is done under Configure Employee Files. So go into Configure Employee Files and  click Add New.

Step 9: Create new screen name Transport Details and “Save Dashboard” as below.

Step 10: Now add that user interface to that screen as below.

Step 11: To do that, we click at User Elements.

Step 12: Input the Portlet Title and MDF screen ID we talked about earlier called Transport and hit “Save”.

Friends, just few more clicks are needed to make new screen ready for users.

Step 13: Giving access.  Click Admin Tools and go to my role-based permissions. Select a role and click Permissions…, Employee Views. Click the check to make it visible and Save.

Go back to my home screen..My Employee files..you can see the new custom UI screen named, Transport Details…Click to open.
