Hi,

Custom Infotype can be created by following these steps:

1. Go to transaction PM01.

2. Provide the Infotype number. The number should be from 9000 to 9999.

Avoid providing the Infotype number that already exists.

3. See to it that the Employee Infotype and PS structure radio buttons have been selected.

All Push button

4. Select the u2018Allu2019 Push button as shown in above figure. The following below shown screen is

displayed.

5. Maintain the structure (Provide fields) which will be included in our current custom Infotype. The

PAKEY/PBKEY and PSHD1 structures are not required to be provided while creating the custom

Infotype. They are included in the custom Infotype by default.

6. Save and activate the structure. Go to the initial screen of PM01 transaction.

Technical Attributes

Push button

7. Select the u2018Infotype characteristicsu2019 push button shown in the above figure. The below screen is

displayed.

New Entries Push button

8. Select the u2018New Entriesu2019 push button shown in the above figure. The below shown screen is

displayed.

9. Provide the Current custom Infotype number (9002) and description for the Infotype. Also provide the

Time constraint based on the requirement, 2000 as the single screen and 3000 as the list screen.

10. The u2018Subtype Obligatoryu2019 check box needs to be selected if we intend to make the subtype as mandatory

field. This step is useful when we come through the step 11 (Subtype maintenance).This step can be

skipped if we donu2019t want the subtype for an Infotype.

11. Save the Infotype details and go back to the initial screen of PM01 transaction.

Additional steps

If a subtype needs to be maintained for the Infotype then some additional steps also needs to be performed

before providing Infotype characteristics (step number 7).

12. Select the Technical attributes (Figure shown in step 6) from the initial screen of PM01 transaction .The

below shown figure is displayed.

13. Select the change button on application tool bar. The dialog module in the above screen then becomes

editable.

14. Select the Infotype 9002 and select the details button as shown in the above figure (In change mode).

The below shown figure is displayed.

Display/Change button Details

15. Provide the Subtype field of the Infotype, Subtype table as T591A and Subty.text table as T591S.

16. Save and go back to the initial PM01 screen.

17. The subtypes for an Infotype can be entered via the maintenance view V_T591A.

18. Continue with step 7 as required.

Regards,

Neelima.
