How to sort wage type in HR Forms.

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have created Zpay_slip in using HR forms. When I we added wage type in evaluation class In this the amount is displayed in the payslip. but it displaying in the order "/" in the first and other wage types after. but we require in the order like...

current order:

/BT1 tax details

0710 Basic salary

0715 Hra

0719 Med allowances

required order.

0710 Basic salary

0715 Hra

0719 Med allowances

/BT1 tax details

how to achieve this in HRforms or in evaluation class?

Hi yashwanth

Options to achieve sorting over your infodimension:

- you can do your selection with wage types and use the sorting option instead of doing your selection over evaluation class.

- you can change your wagetype to set them in different groups for evaluation class 02, create one infodimension per grouping value and "physically" sort them on your form context.

- you can use the BADI HRFORM_HRF02 method CHECK_PERNR_LATE and perform a custom sorting in any stars belonging to your infonet.

- you probably have a lot of other options I am not thinking of.

Best.

Funny one just crossed this note: 2156288 - Wage types are not sorted as per customizing in HRFORMS

@Christopher Solomon this might be of interest for you? 🙂

You can't. That is just how standard sorting is done......special chars (_,-,*,/,\,etc), then numbers (0,1,2,3...), then alpha (a,b,c,d...)....(usually by ACSII or binary values of the character). For example in your case, "/" equals 47 while "0" equals "48", so the "/" comes first in the order.

Why is this such an issue? I would be more worried that the correct wage types are there rather than changing how the underlying sorting works.....and I am talking "global", database level sorting....not just here.

If you want the more "technical" reason/how sorting is done there are other links I can give. Also, at times, this sort can be different depending on underlying operating system too. YOu are getting into a "deep water" discussion. haha
