Process Model: Example 

Personnel number selection

The selection program H99_SELECT_PERNR transfers the personnel numbers to be processed to the process model.

Programs

The program RPCALCX0 with selection variant SAP&PM99 belongs to the PY-Payroll program category.

Form printing and payment are processed together, therefore, the total runtime is reduced.

Sets of personnel numbers

The payroll program simultaneously processes sets of 500 personnel numbers and the transfer program processes sets of 1000 personnel numbers. This means that the runtimes of the programs are reduced.

Programs that process sets of personnel numbers can follow programs that do not split selected personnel numbers, and vice versa.

Breakpoint

The unconditional breakpoint interrupts the process each time it is run and before any documents are created.

Programs that select personnel numbers can only follow programs that also work on the personnel number level. For example, the payment program cannot transfer personnel numbers to the check printing program as a selection criterion. Only a program that does not select personnel numbers can follow the check printing program. The system documentation for the program categories specifies which categories select personnel numbers.
