Creation of Events When HR Master Data is Changed (SAP Library)

Creation of Events When HR Master Data is Changed

Use

There are two tables for controlling the creation of events when HR master data is changed.

HR objects require this "special treatment" because the creation mechanisms mentioned so far cannot be used in this area for technical reasons.

The various infotypes of an HR master record are stored in the tables PA* and PB* . Changes to these tables are to be published by the creation of events.

Features

Assignment HR information - object type

The assignment between the table and the object type is made in table T588V . For an entry in this table, the key structure of the table for HR information must agree with the key of the object type.

Field name

Description

TBNAM

Table for HR information

BUSOB

Object type

Example

An example entry in table T588V :

T588V-TBNAM: PA0006 ( HR master record infotype 0006 (addresses))

T588V-BUSOB: ADDRESSEMP ( employee address)

Assignment change - event

Those changes that are to cause an event to be created are listed for each table in table T588W . The event (event ID and object type) to be triggered is also specified. This event to be triggered can also be determined using a function module with a predefined interface.

The existing entries in the table provide an orientation.
