Delete infotypes

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need the best way to delete infotypes without taking too much time. Maybe a function, that could do that as quick as possible.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Sónia Gonçalves,

Goto PM01.

Enter infotype number and click on delete. And this involves data & structure deletion so deletion manually and deletion through some function will take same time.

Hope that helps.

Use HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION.

I really need to this by code, because is a job that runs every day to transfer data from interface table PTEX2000 to infotypes 2001 and 2002.

But before that transfer, I want to delete all the records in infotype 2001 and 2002 in the selected period.

Thanks.

HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION do the same just mention the operation type as delete.

This FM call a BDC on that infotype and delete/insert as per the operation selected.

It will also take care of all the necessary validations too.

Check this link for sample code -

Hi,

use FM HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION with OPERATION = 'DEL'.

I already tried with those functions and it's still slow.

Do you have any more ideas?

Thanks.

Sonia,

THe function module that others mentioned above should be fairly quick. Are you running your program in the foreground or background? It will run much more quickly in the background.
