  Successor Pool is a feature of SAP Talent Management (PA-TM) that allows organizations to identify and develop potential successors for key positions within the company.

  Successor Pool can be used to identify and develop potential successors for key positions within the organization. To do this, the organization must first create a pool of potential successors for each position.

This will help ensure that the organization has a ready supply of qualified candidates when a position needs to be filled.
