HR Buffer and FM question

bryan_cain — Wed, 28 Jun 2006 16:17:47 GMT

Hi all -

This question may have a simple answer that I'm just missing.

I found a FM called "HR_PUT_ORG_STRUCTURE" that writes infotype 0001 data to the buffer according to the comments in the code.

How do I save the data from the buffer to the DB? I've tried commit work, RH_UPDATE_DATABASE and RHOM_WRITE_BUFFER_TO_DB, none seem to work.

Thanks in advance!

Bryan

Can you use? :


CALL FUNCTION 'HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION'      
     EXPORTING                             
          infty         = '0001'           
          number        = pernr            
          subtype       = p0001_aux-subty  
          objectid      = p0001_aux-objps  
          lockindicator = p0001_aux-sprps  
          validityend   = p0001_aux-endda  
          validitybegin = p0001_aux-begda  
          recordnumber  = p0001_aux-seqnr  
          record        = p0001_aux        
          operation     = 'MOD'            
          tclas         = 'A'              
          dialog_mode   = '0'              
          nocommit      = 'X'              
     IMPORTING                             
          return        = return1.

I'll try it, but I don't think it's going to work. I've tried using that FM in another program, and it won't let me change infotype 0001 values. If I go into transaction PA30, that won't let me change those values either, if the employee has been tied to an org unit - Basically, I'm trying to change an employee's org unit when that org unit gets updated in the org master.

It seems this value (pa0001-orgeh) only changes when you change where the position is assigned in Org master data, PPOSE. Basically, I'm trying to simulate that.

Thanks for the suggestion though. Once I've tested I'll come back and award points as appropriate.

That did it! I'm not sure why I couldn't get it to work before, but thanks for your help.
