HR Service Delivery, Employee service center

ServiceNow HRSD

In many company HR spends time on repetitive work like responding to email, chat, excel to communicate with employee cases. Also there is lack of centralized service catalog which employees can use to raise case.

So here ServiceNow HRSD helps HR professional and employees by automating routine tasks and helps HR to deliver services to employee in timely manner.

In service Now we have below modules

HR case Managment

hrsd21120193.PNG

After a ‘HR request’ is submitted via the HR Catalog, an HR application in ServiceNow is used to fulfill those requests. HR Case Management is the collection of all cases.

HR cases hold the details of HR requests, such as requests for information, and HR processes, such as onboarding. Users can submit HR cases through the HR Service Portal, the HR Catalog, or manually with the new button.

Example HR request

An employee named Able wants to find out about the company’s leave policy. He wants to discuss work from home policy.

-Able submits an HR request asking about company’s leave policy and requesting a meeting to discuss work from home policy.

-An HR case is created and assigned to an HR agent, such as a specialist or generalist, based on assignment rules.

-The HR agent processes the HR case, creating two HR tasks for this two-part request. Each task is assigned to the user who can process it.

-When all the tasks are completed, the HR case is closed.

HR Integration

hrsd21120196.PNG

HR administaration

hrsd21120194.PNG

In the HR Administration application, we can configure the HR Applications.

-Surveys - Configure the HR surveys like Satisfaction and exit surveys

-Knowledge - Add and publish KB Articles

How HR data is secured?

HR related data is sensitive and should be visible to the particular employee and HR department only. For this reason HRSD have different scope other than Global scope

Below are important points on HR module security

1.Platform Admin (without HR role) if impersonates as HR Admin or user with HR role then he/she cannot view HR cases, grant roles or view HR profile information of an employee.

2.Platform HR Admin cannot change password of any user with a scoped HR role.

3.Platform Admins cannot grant themselves or other scoped HR roles.

What the HR Groups and Roles?

There are mainly 3 kinds of groups

hrsd211201910.PNG

sn_hr_core.basic contains roles below

hrsd211201915.PNG

What are HR Skills?

HR skills are specialization area of HR stuffs. Like

•Employee Relation

•HR Benefits

Like roles,Skills can be assigned to a group, so that every member in the group inherits it.This Skills can defined in the Case templates so that user in the group will be auto-assigned based on skills.

For example, an HR case opened for a payroll question will be auto-assigned to users and groups with payroll skills.

hrsd211201917.PNG

HR case auto assignment

In case an assignment group is not mentioned in HR case template,

-HR auto assignment rule

-Matching rules

are applied. Let see these 2 functions below

HR Assignment Rules

HR Administrator > Assignment Rules > HR Assignment Rules

hrsd211201921.png

Here we can see if the assigment group is empty when the case was created then auto assigment happens to HR tier1 group

HR Matching Rules HR Administrator > Assignment Rules > HR Matching Rules

hrsd211201923.png

Here we can see that ServiceNow is looking for least loaded agent by the skill type.

What is HR profile?

HR profile is different from User profile .

HR profile stores confidential information like marital status, beneficiaries, medical plan, ethnicity etc.

HR professionals with sn_hr_core.profile_reader can only view an employee HR profile data.

HR profile information is store Hr_profile table.

hrsd211201925.png

Click on the related link to view the entire HR profile

hrsd211201926.png

Hr profiles can be create in the following way

hrsd211201927.png

If user have HR profile then we can see View Human Resources Profile

hrsd211201928.png

2. Generate bulk HR profiles

hrsd211201929.png

Here we can filter for the user for which we want create HR profile. We can see the count at the top.

What is the difference between HR criteria and User Criteria?

User criteria is applied on the knowledge base/Catalog items an employee can view. HR criteria are generally applied to create bulk hr cases by HR or in the lifecycle event (as discussed earlier)

What is HR Case?

HR case is a document that capture employee HR request. An HR professional interact with employee using the HR case

hrsd211201931.png

There are two ways to create HR case

•HR professional may manually create an HR case using Create New Case.

•Employee may submit a request in the Service Portal.

HR can create case using HR Profile

hrsd211201933.png

While creating the case we have defined the COE (center of excellence) ,HR service, opened for and Subject person.

hrsd211201935.png

HR case tables

hrsd211201936.png

HR criteria

HR criteria are set of filter used for bulk user cases.

For example we can select HR criteria as UK employee only for bulk case creation so that only UK employee will see the case created for them

hrsd211201937.png

HR Document template

HR document template are reusable documents with dynamic fields. For example, an employee verification letter format will be same for all the employee. This can be made as an template and dynamically update field based on the HR operating the case from the table.

hrsd211201938.png

In case of PDF template we have first load it into manged documents. Then create a PDF Document Template. And finally Create a PDF template mapping under related list to parse the PDF and add variables.

•Step 1 Manged Documents > Documents > Create New

•Step2 HR Administration> Document Templates

•Step3 Related list > PDF mapping

HR Template

HR templates are different from HR document template.HR template is used to populate the HR case or HR task with information like description, skill, assignment groups.

hrsd211201940.png

Here we can see the template assignment group is Employee Relocation and Skill is Relocation specialist .

When we apply this template to an HR case then automatically fields like description, priority will get updated.

HR Task template

Some HR service requires sub task to completed like watching a video for an employee, sign document etc. In that we need to create HR task template and then attach those to the HR service configuration.

hrsd211201941.png

Create a HR service with fulfilment type activities

Go to Hr Services >HR service configuration

hrsd211201948.png

Select Fullfillment Type = service Activity

Template = select hr case template which we have created before

hrsd211201942.png

Note that Hr Case template which we attached earlier to the service is still attached in Template field.

Making Fulfilment type as Service Activity , allows us to add HR sub task in the related items activity list

hrsd211201943.png

Click New to create Service Activity and fill as below

hrsd211201944.png

After case creation note that based on the case template priority and assignment group auto populated

hrsd211201946.png

Note that when the case is created it moves to draft state and in this state we are not able to see tasks.

hrsd211201950.png

Click on Ready for Work and see the tasks

hrsd211201951.png

This is the most important part of the HRSD application where we bind all the features we described above to create an HR service .

HR service is the starting point to create a case.

hrsd211201952.png

• Centre of Excellence (COE) COE like parent classification of all Categories in which the services are defined.

• Topic category : This provides the first level grouping of all HR services

• Topic Details: This provides the second level grouping under Topic Category.

• HR service : Holds the record details for HR case, knowledge article etc.

HR service configuration

Go to HR Administration > HR Service Configuration

hrsd211201953.png

Fill the details as below

hrsd211201955.png

Lifecycle Events

Lifecycle events are collection of activities that combines to create service. Like Employee onboarding/offboarding. The task or activities needed for LE is grouped into Activity set. This Activity set have a trigger condition to run. The task might be outside of HR control like office setup, creating badge etc. For onboarding activity set might be as follows

hrsd211201956.png

HR criteria can be used on the activity so that it gets triggered only for a specific group of employee.

For example, only US based employee will have 401k form. Other region employee who doesn’t meet the criteria will skip the activity.

GO to LifeCycle Events > Manage LifeCycle Events

hrsd211201957.png

Each LE have two tabs

1.lifecycle Event

2.Activity Sets

hrsd211201958.png

And Activity set has collection of activities.

hrsd211201959.png

Click on the pencil button to edit the activity

hrsd211201960.png

We can also view in the classic view as below

hrsd211201961.png

Create new activity

A new activity can be

2.Fullfiller

4.Notification

hrsd211201963.png

Employee: This can be an employee action like watching a policy video before joining. Activity can be an HR task template (which we discussed earlier)

hrsd211201964.png

Fulfiller: Can be a HR servicer task, a catalogue item or an incident.

hrsd211201965.png

Approval: can be an approval from a manager before releasing the offer

hrsd211201966.png

Notification: Can be email send to the employee to complete the preboarding formalities on time

hrsd211201967.png

Once we have created the LE event. We need to create an HR service with fulfilment type as Lifecycle Event and add the new LE event type we created.

hrsd211201968.png

HR service portal

hrsd211201969.png

And catalogs

hrsd211201974.png

HR knowledge Management

Knowledge articles are HR Information that are shared to the employees. Allowing employee to quickly look for answers to their question reduces the number of redundant cases.

hrsd211201975.png

HR policies might be different based on region or Business Units. User criteria can be set on the knowledge article to decided who can view and who cant.

hrsd211201977.png

What is HR service catalog?

Employees uses this HR service catalogs to request HR services Not all HR services are available to employees to request. So All HR service doesn’t necessarily needs an catalog item but all catalog item must be associate with an HR service.

hrsd211201978.png

Like other catalog item, user will provide their details though variables, variable sets. Click on the edit icon to see the catalog item details

hrsd211201979.png

HR dashboard displays the result of performance metrics, employee stratification and current status of HR case.

By Default, HR manager can view

•HR cases opened in last 6 Months

•Active HR case breakdown by Service

•Active HR case by Service

•Active HR cases by Assignment and State

•HR Case Transfer Rate

•Lifecycle Events Dashboards

hrsd211201987.png

Use PA for HR module

We can use HR content Pack of PA for pre-defined KPIs and several OOTB dashboard. We need to activate HR Performance Analytics Content Pack.

• com.sn_hr_pa • com.sn_hr_lifecycle_pa

HR survey are feedback forms that employee uses to give feedback on HR process.

We can configure the following

-Look and feel of the questionnaire

-Trigger condition, when to send

Metric categories provide a way to group question of similar type for a survey. Assessment Metric is the value, or score provided for each option on question Survey Scorecard display the chart view of the survey result.

Add and customize a field in a table

Administrators can add new fields to a table to store and display data.

  • The system can only have a maximum of 1000 columns per table. Although it is defined that\n 1000 columns is a specified limit, this does not mean you can physically have 1000 columns\n within a table. The number of columns within a table is defined by the database used in the\n ServiceNow datacenter, not by the Now Platform .
  • Every table, regardless of storage engine, has a maximum row size of 65,535 bytes. Storage\n engines may place additional constraints on this limit, reducing the effective maximum row\n size.
  • The system can not have more than 10 medium-length or longer String \n fields to a single table. Attempting to save a large number of characters in 11 or more String\n fields can result in the following error: Syntax Error or Access Rule Violation detected by\n database (Row size too large (> 8126 ).
  • When you create fields, the u_ prefix is automatically added to the column name. If the column label that you enter contains leading numeric characters, they are replaced by the u_ prefix.

For more information on database limitations and general questions on tables in your\n ServiceNow instance, see KB0749585 .

  • \n Navigate to any form. \n
  • \n Right-click the form header and select Configure > Form Layout . \n
  • \n Click Add . \n
  • \n Use the slushbucket to place the field in the desired location on the\n form. \n
  • \n Click Save . \n The field now appears on the form in the designated\n location. \n
  • Make a field mandatory \nFields can be marked as mandatory, meaning they must contain a value before the record can be saved. Mandatory fields are marked with a field status indicator before the label.
  • Change the field label or hint \nYou can change a field's label or the text that appears as a hint when you point your cursor to the field.
  • Delete a field from a table \nYou can delete custom fields that you created. Custom fields begin with u_ . It is recommended that you remove the field from forms and lists instead of deleting it.
  • Add users to a watch list \nWatch lists enable you and others to subscribe to notifications of a task.
  • Highlight list fields \nColor fields in lists to call an agent's attention to them.
  • Modify string field length \nYou can modify the maximum character limit for a string field.
  • Specify a default field value \nA default value populates a value in a field when a new record is created.
  • Make a field dependent \nA choice or reference field can be declared dependent on another field on the same table. Dependent fields limit their available values based on the value in the dependent field.
  • Require unique values for a field \nThe system allows you to require that a field's values be unique. When this is done, the system will not let two records have the same value for that field.
  • Define field styles \nField styles enable you to declare individual CSS styles for a field in a list or form.
  • Record numbering \nIn the base system, several tables are numbered, including Incident, Problem, Change Request, and Knowledge. You can also use these numbers anywhere that script is present, for example to generate watermarks for emails. Records in tables can be numbered automatically.

I have attempted to post all 3,954 tables that are out of box in every ServiceNow environment in this post, but it significantly decreases this webpages load time, to do so.

So instead, you can check out the list of all tables in your own ServiceNow environment.

To do this, go to the table, of tables, in ServiceNow.

You can do this by going to System Definition > Tables .

This table will show you the table label, it’s database name, the table it may extend from, and when it was created.

When you click into each table, you can view all of the columns/fields, any ACL information, etc.

Any table with a preceding “u_”, the to table name, is a custom table, and not one that ServiceNow created.

To do this, navigate to: https://Instance_Name.service-now.com/sys_db_object_list.do

This will simply bring you to the table of tables.

You can also get here by typing in sys_db_object.list, and hitting enter, in your application navigator.

This is a little trick where you put the table in, and then append a .list and hit enter, which is just an easier way to get to a table, if you know the database table name.

You will need to be an admin in the instance to view all of the tables, but this can be changed if you need to, by updating ACL’s.
