0EMPLOYEE master data not getting correctly populated

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have enhanced 0EMPLOYEE_ATTR datasource by adding a new field (Region Code) to the extraction structure. After that, CMOD routine was modified in order to get the new field populated. Everything is working as expected with the extraction and information is being transferred to PSA table in BW side. As part of the change, I added ZREGION attribute to 0EMPLOYEE characteristic and updated transformation between datasource 0EMPLOYEE_ATTR and characteristic by adding a new rule that simply transfers the data from the source to the target (direct assingment).

The problem becomes when I run the DTP in order to transfer master data between PSA and characteristic. New attribute isn't correctly populated in many employee master data records. There are inconsistencies between PSA and characteristic. I'm running a full DTP that transfers the last request from PSA table.

After running DTP I activated master data and also run an attribute change run. But master data remains different from PSA table. I mean, in many cases, new "Region Code" attribute contains wrong information. Sometimes it is filled with a wrong value, other times it remains empty even though it present a value in PSA table. I tried just running a full DTP from PSA to characteristic with a filter based on "Employee Number" but error still persists.

Any idea that can explain this behavior?

Thanks in advance.
Regards.
