Use

For infotypes that must be read frequently – for example, the Organizational Assignment and Payroll Status infotypes (0001 and 0003, respectively) – the standard system provides corresponding read methods – for example, P0001 and P0003.

Procedure

If you plan to create a new infotype, and if your infotype will require data from other infotypes, we recommend that you implement the following business logic.

CALL METHOD a_read_infotype->read_single EXPORTING tclas = tclas pernr = pernr infty = '0003' subty = space objps = space sprps = if_hrpa_read_infotype=>unlocked begda = low_date endda = high_date mode = if_hrpa_read_infotype=>last_intersecting_record no_auth_check = true IMPORTING pnnnn = p0003 data_exists = data_exists.

The above business logic enables your infotype to obtain multiple records from the corresponding infotype to be read. By means of the method READ_SINGLE , this business logic also allows your infotype to read cost assignment and other secondary data. If you would like to implement the method READ_SINGLE in your infotype, review interface IF_HRPA_READ_INFOTYPE .
