Workforce Planning Implementation Considerations
• Model is based on a 12-month calendar
• Default calculations support a single year; may be
modified to support multiple years
• Some member formulas, such as spreading, rely
on a monthly calendar; if the application uses
custom time periods, the formulas need to be
modified to support those time periods

Workforce Planning Customization
• “Out of the Box” building blocks

SUTA come prepackaged with the solution
• New items (for example, unions) require new
calculations

and business rules to include the additional
dimensions

Capital Asset Planning Implementation Considerations
• Based on a 12–month calendar; it is not a weekly
model

calculations use the base currency for the entity
member calculated; if the currency override option is
in effect, depreciation calculations use the currency of
the entered value
• Users can make up to three improvements for each
existing asset. To add additional improvements, the
administrator must add the appropriate “IM n”
members
