Transferring a Person ( Workflow (SAP Library

Transferring a Person - Workflow

Use

You are transferring person (employee) from one position to another. During the transfer, you want to trigger a workflow that sends the personnel department a work item for carrying out the personnel action you specify. For information about transferring a person (employee) to another position, see Transferring a Person.

Prerequisites

To trigger the transfer workflow, the following conditions must be met:

You have set up an appropriate workflow. For further information, especially about customizing for this workflow, see under the SAP Easy Access Menu ® Tools ® ABAP Workbench ® Development ® Workflow ® Definition Tools ® Tasks/Task Groups ® Display. Choose Workflow Template and enter 01000014 (for workflow template codes, see transaction PFWS). Note that the standard workflow template does not necessarily match your enterprise-specific requirements.

The PLOGI EVENB (Enhanced Integration) and PLOGI EVCRE (Create Event for Entry T77INT) switches in table T77S0 are set to ‘X’. Compare the Set Up Integration with Personnel Administration section, in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Organizational Management.

When the Assign Person dialog box appears as you are transferring the person in Organizational Management, select a personnel action type. The system only offers a choice of those personnel action types that were specified as being relevant to Organizational Management in the view V530_all.

Procedure

You want to transfer a person, and have already carried out steps 1 to 4 of the Transferring a Person procedure.

In the Assign Person dialog box, select a personnel action and make the entries described in steps 5 and 6 of the Transferring a Person procedure.

Save your entries.

The employee in the personnel department then receives the Decision work item in his or her inbox (Transaction SWLD - Integrated Inbox).

The employee in the personnel department can then execute, change (in other words, enter a different personnel action type), or undo the personnel action.

If the personnel action selected by you is carried out, both the administrator and the person (employee) affected by the action are informed by mail – both receive the mail in their inbox.
If the action is undone, the system displays in Organizational Management the original position of the objects in the organizational structure (that is, their position before the transfer procedure). After the action is undone, the employee in the personnel department receives notification by mail in his/her inbox.
If you undo the reorganizational action (the transfer), the workflow that was started is automatically canceled.

Result

The employee in the personnel department has executed the work item relating to the transfer workflow that you triggered.
