Problem in HR Master Data Distribution through ALE

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hi All,

Are there any settings that need to be maintained in <b>SPRO</b>before sending HR Master Data through ALE (Tcode: <b>PFAL</b>) in the source/target systems.

I'm using the msg type: HRMD_A and the basic type is :HRMD_A06.

Did you setup change pointers in BD21 for message type HRMD_A? schedule a job to collect change points using TR.BD21. After that run Rseout00 to send IDOCS..

FYI

Also don’t forget to schedule BD22, to delete process change pointer for performance purposes.

also refer thread !!

Good luck

Hi Saquib,

Thanks for ur reply,

my problem is that the data in some of the PA infotypes is not getting picked in the source system itself, OM infotypes are transferred with out any problem. Any thoughts?

Distributed HR Master Data Procedure

Purpose

This description of a procedure is for distributed HR master data.

Prerequisites

Customizing

If you want to distribute objects and relationships of Organizational Management, Personnel Administration, and Recruitment and be able to use integration, the following Customizing requirements apply:

&#9679; The distribution model must be maintained accordingly

The change pointers must be activated for HRMD_A.

If you require more information, access the Implementation Guide (IMG) and choose SAP Web Application Server ® IDoc Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) ®Modeling and Implementing Business Processes ® Maintain Distribution Model and Distribute Views.

&#9679; The following filters must be set:

&#9675; In the global system: object types O, C, and S; infotypes 1000, 1001

(but not object types P and AP)

&#9675; In the regional systems: object type P (and possibly AP); infotypes 0000, 0001, 0002, 0003, and 1001

(but not object types O, C, and S)

&#9679; Integration between Organizational Management and Personnel Administration must be activated (in all participating HR systems)

If you require further information, access the Implementation Guide (IMG) and choose Personnel Management ® Integration ® Integration with Personnel Administration.

&#9679; HR master data distribution must be set up (in all participating HR systems)

&#9675; You activate the Distributed HR Master Data scenario.

&#9675; You activate integration in ALE inbound processing.

If you require more information, access the Implementation Guide (IMG) and choose SAP Web Application Server ® IDoc Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) ®Modeling and Implementing Business Processes ® Configure Predefined ALE Business Processes ® Human Resources ® Master Data Distribution ® Distributed HR Master Data.

· Distributed Organizational Management must be activated (in all participating HR systems)

If you require more information, access the Implementation Guide (IMG) and choose SAP Web Application Server ® IDoc Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) ®Modeling and Implementing Business Processes ® Configure Predefined ALE Business Processes ® Human Resources ® Master Data Distribution ® Set Up Distributed Organizational Management ®Activate Distributed Organizational Management.

· The definition of relationship direction B 008 must determine that it belongs to the original (in all participating HR systems).

If you require more information, access the Implementation Guide (IMG) and choose SAP Web Application Server ® IDoc Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) ®Modeling and Implementing Business Processes ® Configure Predefined ALE Business Processes ® Human Resources ® Master Data Distribution ® Set Up Distributed Organizational Management ®Distributable Relationship Direction.

· The definition of this relationship direction must determine that it is valid for object combinations P-S and US-S (in all participating HR systems).

If you require more information, access the Implementation Guide (IMG) and choose SAP Web Application Server ® IDoc Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) ®Modeling and Implementing Business Processes ® Configure Predefined ALE Business Processes ® Human Resources ® Master Data Distribution ® Set Up Distributed Organizational Management ®Distributable Relationship between Original and Replication.

&#9679; In the regional HR systems, the example coding supplied for the WRITE_CHGPTR_FOR_REPLICA method of the HRALE00ORIGSYSTEM BAdI must be implemented so that change pointers are written for infotype 1007 (Vacancy) for positions

If you require more information, access the Implementation Guide (IMG) and choose SAP Web Application Server ® IDoc Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) ®Modeling and Implementing Business Processes ® Configure Predefined ALE Business Processes ® Human Resources ® Master Data Distribution ® Customer Enhancements ®BADI: Fine Tuning of Original System Mechanism.

&#9679; In the global HR system, the example coding supplied for the SAVE_DATA_FOR_ORIGINAL method of the HRALE00ORIGSYSTEM BAdI must be implemented so that infotype 1007 (Vacancy) is read for positions in ALE inbound processing.

If you require more information, access the Implementation Guide (IMG) and choose SAP Web Application Server ® IDoc Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) ®Modeling and Implementing Business Processes ® Configure Predefined ALE Business Processes ® Human Resources ® Master Data Distribution ® Customer Enhancements ®BADI: Fine Tuning of Original System Mechanism.

&#9679; Separate number ranges must be set up in the participating systems for all object types, particularly object type CP (central person).

You can activate dialog boxes to provide information when you change data for replications (in all participating HR systems).

If you require more information, access the Implementation Guide (IMG) and choose SAP Web Application Server ® IDoc Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) ®Predefined ALE Business Processes ® Human Resources ® Master Data Distribution ® Distributed HR Master Data ® ALE: Dialog Box for HR Data and Application Link Enabling (ALE) ® Predefined ALE Business Processes ® Human Resources ® Master Data Distribution ® Set Up Distributed Organizational Management ® Activate/Deactivate Dialog Boxes.

Furthermore, you can use reports RHALEHRMDORIGINIT, RHALEORIGINIT_EMPLOYEE, and RHALEORIGINIT_APPLICANT to determine the original system for existing objects.

You can also access the report in the Implementation Guide (IMG); choose SAP Web Application Server ® IDoc Interface/Application Link Enabling (ALE) ®Modeling and Implementing Business Processes ® Configure Predefined ALE Business Processes ® Human Resources ® Master Data Distribution ® Set Up Distributed Organizational Management ®Register Objects.

Process Flow

The procedure is the same as for Distributed Organizational Management Procedure (see the Process Flow section).

Data is distributed in both directions, so you must ensure that IDocs are processed correctly in inbound processing. You must be certain that an IDoc has been processed successfully or with warnings (booked or incompletely booked) before IDocs are dispatched from the receiving system. Otherwise, data synchronization cannot be ensured. If a data inconsistency is discovered, you can use program RHALEINI (transaction PFAL) to synchronize data manually. Update mode must be used because insert mode is designed for initial transports with prior object deletion. To restrict the amount of distributed data as much as possible, you are advised to specify an infotype/subtype in update mode.

Pl..award the points ..

Thanks
