Create new pernr using HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA

Former Member — Wed, 14 May 2008 20:34:35 GMT

Hi All,

Can someone please give me the steps to create a new pernr using the FM HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA?

I tried it but some how it is not working.

This is what i have entered,

PERNR 00000000

MASSN

ACTIO INS

TCLAS A

BEGDA 05/14/2008

ENDDA 12/31/9999

OBJPS

SEQNR 000

SPRPS

SUBTY

WERKS 1801

PERSG 1

PERSK 12

PLANS 50062342

DIALOG_MODE 0

LUW_MODE 1

NO_EXISTENCE_CHECK X

NO_ENQUEUE

and in the proposed values tab this is what i have

INFT FNAME FVAL

0000 MASSN HP

0000 MASSG 02

0002 PERID 111223333

0002 GBDAT 01/01/1980

0002 NACHN DEF

0002 VORNA ABC

0001 ABKRS U4

0001 BUKRS 1818

I am getting a message saying 'make an entry in all required fields'.

Your quick answers will help me a lot.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Sandeep,

I see you are passing values of 2 fields from infotype 0, 4 fields from infotype 2 and 2 fields from infotype 1 to the table parameter proposed values.

How this FM works is:

SAP Wrote:

that exactly same validation checks take place as would in the individual maintenace screens for the infotype (PA30). The error messages are the same as those which appear in the dialog, in other words, the individual maintenance screen error messages are transferred rather than interpreted by this module.

Therefore, the logical way to find out your error would be to actually try and create the infotypes manually (PA30) with the same data that you are passing to this FM. I'm sure you'll get the same error message but you'll know which particular mandatory field is missing from which particular infotype out of the three supplied to this FM. Then you can pass (append) the missing field(s) with correct values that are missing to make this work.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Sougata.

Hi Sougata,

Thank you for the reply.

I tried running FM in dialog mode = 2, where the exact same PA40 routine is simulated and you have to enter the data manually into the infotypes. The problem is that in one of the screens for infotype 1, I am unable to enter the value for company code, since it is greyed out and consequently when I try to save the entries I get a message saying 'Company code does not exist.

I am not sure if the config automatically is supposed to default the comp code value or not.

Any inputs in this regard are greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Sandeep

I am passing the following as proposed value in my code and it works fine:

0000 P0000-PERNR 03191401 00

0000 P0000-INFTY 0000 00

0000 P0000-ENDDA 99991231 00

0000 P0000-BEGDA 20080503 00

0000 P0000-MASSN P1 00

0000 P0000-STAT2 3 00

0001 P0001-BUKRS 1000 00

0001 P0001-WERKS B590 00

0001 P0001-PERSG 1 00

0001 P0001-PERSK FT 00

You dont need to send everything but you can try and see which combination works for you

Hi Aparna,

Thank you for the reply.

I see that your are passing the PERNR as well. My requirement is to perform a HIRING action so a PERNR has to be created at run time by the FM.

That is why I am passing NO_EXISTENCE_CHECK = 'X' and PERNR = blank to the FM.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I am passing PERNR because in our case pernr is generated by the legacy system and we keep the same numbers in SAP. As i said before, you dont have to send everything I am sending, I posted to values so that you would have a reference of something that works. Populate as much as you can.

Hello Sandeep,

Every system is different in regards to configuration and customization. I suspect the company code field is greyed out (not ready for input) as a result of the configuration of Infotype Screen Control (T588M).

There might be a dynamic action or an user-exit/BADI already active in your system which defaults the company code on infotype 1, but it looks like this is not triggered when you call this FM. As a workaround, you should consult your functional consultant to change the T588M screen control config back to "ready for input" (for field BUKRS) so that you can input a value (through this FM) and hence make it work the way you want to. After your program is run, the screen control setting can be turned back to how it was. As long as you validate the company code data (for each employee) in your program, I don't think it would impact on the system.

I've worked hard for you so please don't forget to reward points!

Cheers,

Sougata.

Hi Aparna,

Can you please list the import parameters that you passed to your FM?

Thanks!

besides what i have already posted(proposed values), I also pass:

PERNR = NUMBER --->legacy employee number

ACTIO = OPERATION ---> INS

TCLAS = TCLAS -

> A

BEGDA = VALIDITYBEGIN -

>begin date

ENDDA = VALIDITYEND -

> end date

WERKS = WERKS -

>v_werks

PERSG = PERSG -

>v_persg

PERSK = PERSK -

>v_persk

LUW_MODE = LUW_MODE -

DIALOG_MODE = DIALOG_MODE -

NO_EXISTENCE_CHECK = 'X'

NO_ENQUEUE = 'X'

Hi Aparna,

Thank you!

One last thing - I am guessing that your system was configured to allow non-internal assignment of pernr, meaning that the user is allowed to specify the pernr that needs to be created.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks!

I am not to sure about what has be configured, but considering the fact that I am able to create a employee with by proving a employee number, i think it should be th case.

I vaguely recall (it's been about 2 years since I wrote the interface, and I don't have the source code handy) that I needed to create an 0003 infotype before creating an 0000.
