List Screen (SAP Library - Developing an Infotype in Personnel Administration)

List Screen

The list screen of an infotype enables you to display all of a specific infotype’s data records created for a personnel number.

Screen 3000 is usually used for the list screen. You can, however, choose to use a different screen as a list screen. Screen 3000 of module pool MPMMMM00 is used as a model.

You can create your own list screens for infotypes included in the standard system. Customer-specific list screens are assigned to the name range 3900 to 3999 .

Screen setup

The list screen is divided into three areas:

Lines 1 to 3 include the header lines.

Lines 5 to 19 contain the list with the infotype records.

Fields assigned to structure Pnnnn are usually displayed. If you want to display further information, such as long texts, in the list screen, you can maintain further fields for this purpose.

Infotype records can be displayed in one or several lines within the list screen.

Line 20 contains the Choose fields ( RP50M-BEGDA, RP50M-ENDDA , RP50M-SUBTY, RP50M-ABGRD and RP50M-PAGEA ).

These fields enable you to select infotype records within the list in accordance with the validity period, subtype, delimitation date, or item in the list.

With the exception of the Delimitation date field ( RP50M-ABGRD ), it should always be possible to make entries in these fields. The delimitation date in field RP50M-ABGRD should only be displayed on the list screen if the current function really is to delimit.

If you create the list screen using transaction PM01 Enhance Infotypes, the system sets the list screen up automatically. Fields assigned to structure Pnnnn are also included in the list screen.

If you do not use subtypes in the infotype, delete field RP50M-SUBTY.
