Prerequisites
Before you may execute this report, it is imperative that you customizeyour system settings - particularly your classifications, areas, levels,and codes - for Certification and Licensing. In Customizing forPayroll USA (PY-US), customize these settings by choosingSupplements Public Sector US -> Certification and Licensing

To learn more about plan versions, or to set adifferent active plan version, choose Global Settings in PersonnelManagement -> Plan Version Maintenance -> Set Active PlanVersion in Customizing for Personnel Management (PA).
Finally, in order to generate a qualification group from eachclassification you have customized, this report requires a correspondingScale ID. You are therefore required to have maintained this Scale ID.To do so, choose Personnel Development -> Master Data ->Edit Scales in Customizing for Personnel Management (PA).

Note
We strongly recommend that you define your scale(s) in a binary fashion- for example, with the characteristic values Certified andNot Certified - because from the perspective of issuingauthorities, an individual is either certified (or licensed) to performa duty, or not certified (or licensed). We therefore do not recommendthe use of percentile or other numeric scales.

• MA03 for area MATH at level 03

Upon executing this report, one qualification group and threequalifications will be generated in Personnel Development; all of theseobjects will displayed as a tree structure in SAP List Viewer format.
