This infotype stores the address data for an employee.

The employee’s address is used in conjunction with the employee’s name, taken from the Personal Data infotype (0002), for employee lists of different kinds, for forms, or for address labels.

You can enter different addresses for each employee. The standard system contains the following address types as subtypes:

  • Permanent Residence

  • Temporary Residence

  • Home Address

  • Emergency Address

  • Mailing Address

  • Nursing Address

Integration

There are many different entry screens for the individual country versions for the infotype Addresses (0006). When you create an address, the system will choose the country-specific entry screen that corresponds to the country of the personnel area to which the employee is assigned in the Organizational Assignment infotype (0001). If you change the country when creating an address, the screen will be changed if the newly-entered country has its own screen.
