Procedure documentationDestroying Works Council Data Using HRPA_WRKCN

 

You can use the HR: Works Councils archiving object (HRPA_WRKCN) to destroy works council data once a specified retention period has expired. The archiving object destroys data from infotype Works Councils (0054).

The following programs are available for HRPA_WRKCN:

Program

If, for example, a legal case to do with the accounting for lost works council payments is not yet closed, you can block the relevant data records from being destroyed. To do so, in the Legal Hold infotype (3246), put a legal hold on the employee's data (subtype 177). For more information, see Legal Hold.
