Delimit function in infotypes

[Former Member]

Hi,

I created a new infotype for HR. It is storing employee performance rating everytime. In that I am having a date field start & end date. When even I entered data in the table , the end date is not getting delimited. For example there is an entry with start date as 01.01.2006 and end dat 31.12.9999. when I enter second entry as 01.01.2007 and end date 31.12.9999. The previous record end date is not getting delimit as 31.12.2006. How this has to be done in infotypes.

Hi karthik,

1. This is not done by abap.

2. This delimit concept

is done in customizing

by setting the field 'TIME CONSTRAINT'

for that praticular infotype.

HI,

Use the Delimit function from the PA30 transaction.

Enter the employee number and infotype in PA30 and then use Delimit function from the Application tool bar OR press (SHIFT + F1) In this way your old record will be delimited.

go to tcode sm30 and view V_T582A and select ur infotype there and in the screen field "Time Constraint" ,specify the time constraint as '1' .it wil solve ur issue.

(Time Constraint 1: An infotype record must be available at all times. This

record may have no time gaps. You may not delete the record last

stored on the database because all records of this infotype

would otherwise be deleted.)
