HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION error

[Former Member]

Hi all.

I'm using FM HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION to upload data to some infotypes. I'm using BAPI_EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE before I call the FM, and the BAPI returns no error, which means the employee has been locked, but when I call the FM it returns "Employee/applicant not locked yet". I tried using BAPI_APPLICANT_ENQUEUE instead, but it still didn't work.

any help will be welcome.

thanks in advance,

Hermes.

Hi,

use the function module 'BAPI_EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE' before your function module, and after your function module use 'BAPI_EMPLOYEE_DEQUEUE'

I'm using it, but still it's not working. As I said in the first post, although the BAPI_EMPLOYEE_DEQUEUE returns no error the FM HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION is saying that the employee is not locked...

Hi,

In your fm HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION already system is locking the PERNR

Check for function module HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA within this system locks PERNR

      perform enqueue_pernr(sapfp50g)
                       using pspar-pernr ' '.

then why do you need explicit lock before calling HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION

Just to make sure we cover the obvious stuff, make sure that you're passing the same pernr when you call HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION as when you just called BAPI_EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE.

Hi Hermes,

I have a similar problem. Did you ever resolve this?

Thanks

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE'

EXPORTING

number = lv_pa0008-pernr.

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_EMPLOYEE_DEQUEUE'

EXPORTING

number = lv_pa0008-pernr.

Use these function modules..They are definitely going to work!

I am facing the same problem. Any solution yet??

I used bapi_employee_enqueue and bapi_employee_dequeue, for hr_infotype_operation.

Its working perfect for infotype 0008, but is showing "Employee/applicant is not locked yet" for 0014

Did you check the return code from the BAPI call. What I do is this:

* Lock Employee
  call function 'BAPI_EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE'
    exporting
      number = ls_0001-pernr
    importing
      return = enq_ret.

  if enq_ret is not initial.
    write:/ ls_0001-pernr, ' ', enq_ret-message.
  endif.

then:
  call function 'HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION'

Also, you have marked this question as “assumed answered”. Please then provide what solution worked for you, this way we can all learn on this forum. Thank you.
