hey there,

you can say that an infotype is sort of a class defining the various aspect of an object.

You use infotypes to define additional object attributes or characteristics. You edit infotypes in Detail Maintenance. You can create, change, display, delete and delimit infotypes.

Each infotype enables you to define particular characteristics for an object.

In the Relationships infotype, you can, for example, define how two objects are related to one another. In the Work Schedule infotype, you can define working time for a position, organizational unit or a work center.

Some infotypes are only relevant for certain object types. The Vacancy infotype is, for example, only relevant for positions and not for any other irrelevant object types.

Infocube:- InfoCube describes a self-contained dataset, for example, of a business-orientated area.or in plain words u can say it is a colected set of data as in they contain data physically just as parcels of data which can be transferred
