Trouble in BAPI (for basic pay)

[former_member187692]

Hi ,

      I have been trying to pass data by execute this bapi "BAPI_BASICPAY_CREATE"

As follows:-

call function 'BAPI_BASICPAY_CREATE'

   exporting

     EMPLOYEENUMBER             = '3'

     SUBTYPE                    = '0   '

     VALIDITYBEGIN              = '01012014'

     VALIDITYEND                = '31122014'

  IMPORTING

    RETURN                     = RETURN

TABLES

   WAGETYPES                  = WAGES.

In RETURN, these are the errors I have been facing

Type   E      Personal number not yet assigned.

Type   E      Employee/applicant is not locked yet

PS:- Here I am just trying to test the bapi ( in SE37 ) by passing dummy values.

Regards,

Naren.

The above RETURN value errors are for different values ( before I have taken Employee number as 12900)

My actually requirement is I need to be able to transfer infotype 0008 (basic pay) details from notepad to SAP using BAPI . So, I picked up this bapi "BAPI_BASICPAY_CREATE".

Call function module BAPI_EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE before calling BAPI_BASICPAY_CREATE.

The error 'Type   E      Employee/applicant is not locked yet' will be gone.

Thank you for your reply Amol but I have done that as well before, now from the last 5 try I am getting this error

" Personal number not yet assigned.".

Hi,

Check whether entered employee is valid in the input date range

Could you try to execute the FM with correct values in internal format (e.g. replace '3' with '00000003', '01012014' with '20140101', etc.)

Remarks :

• This is a BAPI and not a BDC, so strong suggestion to use internal format (SE37 test mode will convert the input using adequate conversion-exit, but not execution during a program) .
• A small research on the message SE91, where-used (*)  would have enabled you to identify the problem, value not found in a basic infotype like PA0001, so check primary keys values : pernr, begda, endda, etc.

(*) Also either post the exact text or the id of a standard error message.

Hi Raymond,

I have done it. Thanks for your remarks  ( it was like one hit on my head ), " Sometimes we think in such a fashion that even we become blind to the obvious things. "

I whole issue was with miss-communication from HR consultants in basic pay values.

Below is a program for further reference:-

       empno type bapip0008-pernr,   " Personal Number

       sub type bapip0008-subty,     " Subtype
