This article explores the functionality and benefits of utilizing a Tms Module, specifically focusing on the VA’s updated system and its Single Sign-On (SSO) capabilities.
What is the TMS Module and Why is it Important?
The TMS module provides a centralized platform for managing all aspects of the employee lifecycle, from recruitment and onboarding to performance management and succession planning. By integrating various HR processes, the TMS module offers a holistic view of talent within an organization, empowering informed decision-making and strategic workforce planning. A well-implemented TMS module can significantly enhance efficiency, reduce administrative burdens, and improve overall talent management outcomes.
Accessing the VA’s TMS 2.0 via SSO
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has implemented an updated TMS 2.0 system with enhanced Single Sign-On (SSOi) capabilities for a more streamlined login experience. This leverages VA’s internal SSO solution, requiring users to be logged onto the VA network to access the following URL: https://logon.iam.va.gov/affwebservices/public/saml2sso?SPID=https://www.successfactors.com/VAHCM03. This improved access method enhances security and simplifies the login process for authorized personnel.
For convenient access, a direct link to the TMS 2.0 SSOi page has been added to GFE IE Favorites within the VA Shortcuts/National folder. A comprehensive user job aid document outlining the SSOi login process for TMS is also available here.
