Modifying Resource Qualifications
If PeopleSoft Resource Management is the employee source database for a resource, you maintain the resource's qualifications in the Financials database. These qualifications can consist of:
Competencies and interests.
Honors and awards.
Language skills.
Licenses and certifications.
Memberships.
Tests and examinations.
The values that are available to select on the pages in this section are derived from the qualifications tables that are set up during PeopleSoft Resource Management implementation.
This topic discusses how to modify resource qualifications.
Note: If PeopleSoft HCM is the employee source database for the resource, then when you modify the resource's competencies, interests, and accomplishments in the resource profile, you are transferred to the Person Profile component in PeopleSoft HCM. After you modify qualification information that is stored in the HCM database and return to the resource profile, your changes may not be visible until you refresh the Resource Profile component (RS_WRKR_PROFILE).

Proficiency |
Select the degree to which the resource is proficient in the competency. The PeopleSoft Competency Management Scale rating model (PSCM) uses the following scale: 5-Expert, 4-Very Good, 3-Good, 2-Fair, 1-Little, and 0-None. However, you can establish a proficiency rating scale for every competency. |
Interest Level |
Select the resource's level of interest in the competency. The Interest rating model (INT) (which Resource Matching uses) has the following scale: 4-Very Desirable, 3-Desirable, 2-No Preference, 1-Undesirable, and 0-Very Undesirable. |
Years of Work Experience |
Select the number of years of experience that the resource possesses for this competency. You can select from no years to 9+ Years. |
Note: Competency information is populated in sPro SR from RM SO. This information includes competency of type License, degrees along with proficiency, and years of experience.
When an SR is created in sPro, the competencies column within Resource Management for the SO line is locked so that the user cannot modify the competencies. However, the user can still create a new SO line and also be able to select a resource internally even though an SR is created for the SO.
