Personal Data (Infotype 0002) 

The Personal Data (0002) infotype stores data for identifying an employee/applicant.

Name formatting enables you to control how the employee’s or applicant’s name is output (for example, “known as” first name instead of first name, without title).

The Personal Data (0002) infotype has the time constraint 1, which means that an infotype data record must exist in the system at all times as of the date on which the employee is hired.

The validity start for the first record of the infotype Personal Data (0002) is determined from the employee’s/applicant’s date of birth.

Marital Status/Religion

Because the individual family members do not have to be recorded in the system, a check is not run to see whether the number of children entered in the Family/Related Person (0021) infotype corresponds with the number of children entered in the No.children field in the Personal Data infotype (0002).
