Infotype 0006

[Former Member]

HI All,

A) I need to create new entries to infotype 0006 ( address Data) .

What would be a better approach

1) BADI

2) Use FM

3) Is there some other way??

B) Also if there exists a record I need to modify few fields

How to do this ?

from PM01.

Hi,

To change data in an infotype as part of a custom development I would recommend using FM HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION. It will handle modification or delimiting a current record and creating a new one (depending on the time constraint configured for the infotype and sub type combo)

BADI would be for adding logic to perform another task during the save / display of the data (as would the user exits)

PA30 is for maintaining the data as a user

PM01 would be used to customise the infotype

Cheers

It is migration of data from one R3 system to other . So I cant use PA30 or PM01 for updating .

Why don't you use ALE?

PM01 is to create a custom infotype or add custoom fields to a Std infotype.

PA30 is to Maintain Master data of an employee .. not for mass update..

Hi Suresh,

I am using RFC Call. Could you suggest what methods should be used for uploading data ?

[suresh_datti]

Did you try BAPI_ADDRESSEMP_CHANGE ?
