FM for org unit shortname

[Former Member]

Hello All,

Im looking for a functionmodule to get org unit shortname. (HR-OM)

I'm using HR_READ_FOREIGN_OBJECT_TEXT to get position shortname. can i somehow use this FM to get org unit shortname as well? or is there another fm that i can use?

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_READ_FOREIGN_OBJECT_TEXT'
     EXPORTING
          OTYPE                   = 'S'
          OBJID                   = p0001-plans
          BEGDA                   = pn-begda
          ENDDA                   = pn-endda
     IMPORTING
          OBJECT_TEXT             = ls_stext
     EXCEPTIONS
          NOTHING_FOUND           = 1
          WRONG_OBJECTTYPE        = 2
          MISSING_COSTCENTER_DATA = 3
          MISSING_OBJECT_ID       = 4
          OTHERS                  = 5.

Thanks

Claes

Hi Claes,

Yes you were right.. I didn't notice.

In case you want to get the org unit short text, then you should use the same Function module by passing the objid ,otype = 'O' etc for the org unit to get the text for the org unit.

In other words this function module gives the text for one object(The object can be anything person, job, position, org unit etc).

so, get the relation between the position and the org unit it belongs to.

For that org unit , use this fm again.
