Procedure documentationDestroying Family Member Data Using HRPA_FMLYM

 

You can use the HR: Family Member archiving object (HRPA_FMLYM) to destroy all family member data once a specified retention period has expired. The archiving object destroys data from the infotype Family Member (0021) and corresponding data from country-specific secondary infotypes.

The archiving object is divided into archiving subobjects. A subtype of the infotype Family Member is an archiving subobject:

Infotype

Description

Archiving Subobjects

0021

Family Members/Dependents

Subtypes of infotype 0021, for example:

1 (Spouse)

2 (Child)

3 (Legal Guardian)

You can define different retention rules for each archiving subobject. After you have successfully destroyed the data, the system generates a destruction log for each archiving subobject. The system automatically prevents data from being created or edited for this archiving subobject (subtype) for the destruction period.

Country-specific secondary infotypes are also destroyed, for example, from the infotype Family/Related Person (IT0106) for US-specific features.

Note Note

The archiving object also destroys dependent data. To display a complete overview of the relevant database tables, choose DB Tables in Archive Administration (transaction SARA).
