eRec Requisition form / infotypes - Enhance or create from scratch

[former_member188019]

Hi All,

We are planning to develop requestion form for our client,

when we looked the standard  "create requisition" form from portal or WDA application, there are only very few fields are usable for client, and have to add around 15-20 fields, that are not present in standard form.

there are many fields which are not present in standard, eg:

no. of posts for men,

no. of posts for women,

if the post is temporaty, who is the coordinator,

class of service,

age limit relaxation, if physically handicapped,

special category status if any,

etc.

what could be better approach, is to enhance the 5125 infotype, and the WDA application,

or should we create completely new requisition foom using zWDA application from scratch

shall we use ztables instead of eRec standarda infotypes.

incase if we want to enhance standard objects, what all infotypes, badis, WDAs we need to enhance.

thanks in advance.

Hi Madhu,

The best approach is to enhance the standard infotypes by using the customer include structures.

This way, the data is also handled by the underlying e-recruiting data handling classes. As an additional benefit, the data is also present in the import structures of the data overview smartforms.

Please refer to this overview of infotypes to choose the most appropriate infotype to enhance for each additional field.

If you really, really wish to create a new infotype, that is possible as well, but you'll have to develop all processing logic by yourself. To add it to the requisition maintenance screen, you can define a new WDA component and enhance the standard FPM application configuration to include it there.
