PPCI Infotype modification problem

Former Member — Fri, 26 Oct 2007 10:16:59 GMT

Hi,

i created a PD infotype several days ago with 3 fields using PPCI.

I have to change this infotype adding 5 more fields. I have modified the HRI9500 structure. The PPCI only allows me to create new infotypes, but i want to modificate an existing one. What sould i do? Is there any transaction to do this? If i try to create the same infotype using PPCI it gives me an error telling me that it already exists. I don't want to create another infotype using a different infotype number.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

To modify HRI structure and regenerate infotype, I don't think so it's possible.

I Think it's better to delete infotype and start again.

Deleting entries from the table TADIR is not advisable as it can create inconsistencies.

There is a Delete option in the menu of transaction PPCI. Just select the infotype to delete. This should be the best way to make sure all the entries are deleted.

Hi Fina,

There is the change option available in PPCI.it is possible to manually add the field and change the code in infotype.where exactly you are facing problem ?
