Using Fast Entry of Personnel Actions for an Employee

In a fast entry action, only the required fields for each infotype record are displayed for you to enter data. You can, however, add further data to infotypes once you have saved the fast entry action. After you have exited the fast entry screen, you access the specified infotype, which enables you to add your additional data. Furthermore, the system automatically displays the individual infotype screens in which you have entered incorrect data.
