    Annual General Meeting of Shareholders – May 10, 2017 CEO Speech – Bill McDermott The spoken word applies Guten Morgen Meine Damen und Herren. Willkommen in der SAP Arena. The video message you just watched tells a powerful story. Michael Dell built one of the most significant companies in the world. Now he is reinventing his company for the 21st century with SAP. For more than 350,000 customers in 193 countries, SAP is THE trusted innovator. As you will hear in my remarks today, SAP has never been a stronger company. We have never been more dedicated to serving our customers or creating value for our shareholders. From this position of immense strength, we will discuss the very bright future of SAP. This is especially important when you consider our unique past. SAP’s distinguished Chairman, Hasso Plattner, is a once-in-a-generation innovator. Together with his co-founders, he gave us a legacy of excellence that we work to honor each and every day. To help carry that legacy forward, I proudly welcome Adaire Fox-Martin and Jennifer Morgan to the Executive Board of SAP. Congratulations Adaire and Jen. -------- Dear Chairman, Dear Supervisory Board members, thank you for your continued confidence and support. Nothing that we achieve would be possible without SAP’s 85,571 employees. Please join me in thanking them for their outstanding work. (Applause) 1 Now let’s discuss our past, present and future. SAP’s record of success: 2010 – present I’ll begin by looking back. In 2010, we set out to make SAP the world’s most innovative growth company.

    First-hand knowledge. Reading Sample Foundation objects are categories or structures for listings of data that are set up to be used across an entire company. This chapter will walk you through overviews, configuration, creation, and extension. “Foundation Objects” Contents Index The Authors Luke Marson, Murali Mazhavanchery, and Rebecca Murray SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central: The Comprehensive Guide 741 Pages, 2017, $89.95 ISBN 978-1-4932-1582-9 www.sap-press.com/4480 Chapter 7 Foundation Objects Foundation Objects are the building blocks of employee records within Employee Central. By creating a listing of data values from which to populate employee records, we are assured standardized data that is consistent and reportable. 7 Valid, consistent, and organized data is an absolute must for any organization look- ing to execute meaningful reports and simplify data entry processes. Having set val- ues to choose from when populating a field provides consistency. Organizing these set values and giving them characteristics of their own takes this process further. In Employee Central, we accomplish this task by utilizing Foundation Objects. In this chapter, we’ll introduce you to the Employee Central Foundation Objects, beginning by walking through an overview of key terms and differences between reg- ular Foundation Objects and MDF Foundation Objects (see Section 7.1). In Section 7.2, we’ll dive into the different categories to define Foundation Objects. Then, in Section 7.3, we’ll see how Foundation Objects work together through the use of associations and propagation. Section 7.4 will walk through the configuration of Foundation Ob- jects before we finally move on to the creation and extension processes in Section 7.5 and Section 7.6, respectively.
