populating the custom infotype

Former Member — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 10:27:26 GMT

Hi Experts,

Payworld is an application which is used by employees travelling to Onsite on work permit and by employee who is hired overseas. Please provide me pointers on how the data from this payworld can be populated into respective infotypes by the batch as a part of different events in Payworld.

FM HR_INFOTYPE_OPEARTION can v use this to populate the data into the respective infotypes.

Yes, Please use the same FM 'HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION' to modify/insert record of the employee in the INFOTYPE.

Use FM 'EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE' to lock the employee, HR_READ_INFOTYPE to read info type data for the employee. If data exist for in the info type for the employee then modify the record else insert the record.

Hope it helps.

Thanks,

Jayant

Hi Joshi,

One way to get external system data is through application server files. The files will be sent by sent by external system in predefined format. This can be read through your program.

TCODE is AL11 for application server files
