Hi,

I'm an SAP administrator and among my tasks is to enter employees to the SAP using transaction PA40, and in I have a large mass of employees I have to get them one by one , then I search for a transaction or a method to enter in mass.

thanks

You can use LSMW by creating (a) LSMW object, (b) PA40 batch update recording and (c)an Excel file saved as *.TXT file with data for the update/insert).   The LSMW txn has a number of steps starting from object creation, relating the input file fields to infotype fields, running LSMW update to create a batch session, run BDC, etc.  All the steps should be executed with a sample file for one or 2 employees.

After creating these in Dev config client, include all the objects in a transport request (TR).  Copy the TR to dev test client. Test the LSMW update.  Check data maintained and ensure if ok.

Then you can move transport to QA and re-test with more data and do a UAT. 

Move TR to Prod.   Create/save update file and save as *.TXT file.  You may split the file to 2 or more files to reduce the load in one update.  Run a sample load again; check updated data; and then the rest.

If you are hiring, then use the hiring action for the batch recording - this may be in 2 stages; first for non-payroll related infotypes 2, 1, 6, etc, 2nd for payroll related ones.
