• Key Concepts: 
  Fallback is a feature in SAP Organization Management that allows you to assign a default value to a field if no other value is specified. This default value is referred to as the fallback value. It is used when no other value is available or when the user does not enter a value. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP Organization Management, fallback can be used to assign a default value to a field if no other value is specified. To do this, you must first define the fallback value in the system. This can be done by going to the “Define Fallback Values” tab in the “Organizational Management” menu. Once the fallback value has been defined, it will be used whenever no other value is specified or entered by the user. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When defining fallback values, it is important to remember that they should be generic enough to apply to all situations. For example, if you are defining a fallback for an employee’s job title, you should use a generic title such as “Employee” instead of a specific job title such as “Accountant”. This will ensure that the fallback applies to all employees regardless of their job title.
