High-Level Specification

Functional Overview

This report supports the Sales Incentive Plan (SIP) process by providing a pre‑cycle eligibility control view for enterprise compensation processors.

It enables users to:

• Identify employees eligible for SIP based on defined criteria
• Validate eligibility prior to launching the SIP cycle
• Gain visibility of eligibility exceptions that must be marked or corrected
• Support accurate and compliant SIP processing

The report consolidates Compensation and employee data into a single Story Report for ad‑hoc, pre‑cycle validation use.

Data Models

Business Roles

Design Rationale

A custom Story Report is required because:

• No existing report supports SIP eligibility checks prior to the compensation cycle
• Standard SAP / SuccessFactors reports do not provide consolidated eligibility and exception visibility
• The SIP process requires a dedicated pre‑cycle validation view 

Assumptions

• Employee data and Compensation data are correctly maintained
• Eligibility exceptions are marked in source data
• Security access is managed via standard SuccessFactors RBP 

Dependencies

• Accuracy of Compensation and employee master data
• Finalization of security roles for report access
• Dependency on SIP process timelines 

Special Requirements

• Global scope
• Pre‑cycle usage only
• Eligibility and exception visibility is mandatory for SIP validation 

Frequency of Analysis / Report Run

• Ad‑hoc / On‑demand 

Testing Considerations / Dependencies

How to Test

• Validate inclusion of active employees only
• Validate eligibility counts in charts vs table
• Validate page filters (Grade, Hire Date, Workforce Category, Global Assignment Status)
• Validate visibility of eligibility exceptions 

Test Conditions and Expected Results
