Use
The Human Resources Management System provides an array of functions for accessing employee data.
Features
A large amount of data in the Human Resource Management System is stored in infotypes . To access data on an employee, you must enter the employee’s personnel number and the infotype whose data records you want to process.
You can find personnel numbers, even if you do not know them exactly, by using the Search Help for Personnel Numbers .
After you have found the employee you require, you can access this employee’s infotype records as follows:
Selecting a known infotype
Each infotype has both a name and a number. If you know either of these, you can enter it directly.
Selecting an infotype using functional areas.
The Human Resource Management System contains functional areas that group infotypes together by subject matter. For example:
Personal data
Payroll data
From the functional area, you can select the infotype you want to process.
Selecting an infotype using the text search
If you enter a search term in the
Infotype
field, the system displays a selection menu listing all of the infotypes whose name includes the search term.Selecting an infotype using the personnel file
The Personnel File is a reference tool that you can use to view all of the information stored in the system for a particular employee.
