How many COEs, HR services do you have?

JuliaA · ‎01-15-2020

We are implementing service now (kicked off yesterday woohoo!) and are coming from another case mgt. system where we had 50 topics, 200 categories, 350 sub categories. Clearly too many. We know we need to slim it down, but are struggling to identify the HR Services that matke sense to an employee and get HR what they need. Is anyone willing to share their hierarchies or lists of HR Services that are working well for them? Or even just how many you have to compare? This is a tough exercise for us...I know it will be iterative but any help is appreciated!

Table now with borders...

And I forgot: we have started with only one COE (HR Core) - to keep it simple. Will add more COEs once we see a real need for it.

Thanks @ramamr & @JuliaA - I am still having a hard time getting my head around the architecture considerations and ideas here. My problem is that - I guess as @JuliaA also experiences - some use cases that are lifecycle events in nature touch multiple of the non-LCE CoEs. If I understand correctly, i could create LCE activities that basically create (sub) cases within the respective CoEs so that would be a bit of a hybrid approach. Just wondering if anyone has actual experience with that.

For example: to set up "pay" as part of onboarding: In isolation that would be a "Payroll" CoE case. Imho it makes me cringe if i have to now run it under the LCE CoE. It also defeats the purpose of what is communicated as benefits if the CoE (limiting and controlling access).

After some initial research it also seems that i'd have to rebuild the topic and topic detail structure redundantly within LCE and the across the other CoEs which would obviously be painful. @JuliaA - any comment / hint about how you addressed / resolved that?
