What is Person number (PERSNUMBER)

[former_member217914]

Hi Everyone,

I'm a MM consultant and am seeing some value of ADR6-PERSNUMBER being assigned to a user. I need to understand from where the PERSNUMBER is coming from? Is it maintained somewhere, e.g. in PA30? Or is it randomly allocated? Is there any way to link PERSNUMBER to PERNR in PA0001 table?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

Gaurav Sharma

It is possible that the employee has been created with a Reference Personnel Number (in IT 31).  This happens when an employee has several personnel numbers in the company.  With this, the same infotype record is used for all the personnel numbers in the case of IT 2, 6, 9.
