P_APPL (HR: Applicants) (SAP Library - Authorizations in mySAP HR)

P_APPL (HR: Applicants)

Definition

Authorization object that is used during the authorization check of Recruitment infotypes. The checks take place when applicant infotypes are edited or read.

Structure

The P_APPL authorization object contains the following fields, which are tested during an authorization check:

Authorization Field	Long Text
INFTY	Infotype
SUBTY	Subtype
AUTHC	Authorization Level
PERSA	Personnel Area
APGRP	Applicant Group
APTYP	Applicant Range
VDSK1	Organizational Key
RESRF	Responsible Personnel Officer

More Information About the Fields

The AUTHC field contains the access mode for the authorization (for example, R = Read). See Authorization Level for a detailed description of the possible specifications (M, R, S, E, D, W, *) for this field.

The PERSA, APGRP, APTYP, VDSK1 and RESRF fields are filled from the Organizational Assignment infotype (0001). Since this infotype has time-dependent specifications, an authorization may only exist for certain time intervals depending on the user’s authorization. A user’s period of responsibility is represented by all the time intervals for which he or she has P_APPL authorizations (see also Example of the Period of Responsibility Using P_ORGIN).

Note

Unlike the P_ORGIN and P_ORGXX authorization objects, the check on this authorization object cannot, in principle, be deactivated (that is, there is no corresponding authorization main switch).
