long email names

[Former Member]

Has anybody had the problem that the email names the company is using are too long for SAP HR. And did you find a workaround or a solution?

Hi,

To store the employee mail id you can use IT0105(Subtype 0010). This is SAP Default subtype. You can store via PA30 transaction.

That is correct, but he will cut it off if it's to long and then you get for instance xxx@hollandcas in stead of xxx@hollandcasino.nl

you can go to V_T591C table view to select the subtype for email to be of long id. this should solve yr problem

Hi,

There are two fields in infotype 105 for storing communication details.One field is short and the other is long which can be used for storing communication details. I don't remember the technical names.You can go to screen modification node and select the long field in place of the short one.Hope that will be able to accomodate the long name.

Please let me know in case you require any further clarifications,

With Regards,

Thank you, we know. The long one is I think 30 characters and that is not enough. Our format is xxx@hollandcasino.nl

if email addresses are too long then u have 2 ways to resolve this -

1) Either enhance IT0105 and increase the lenght of field storing mail address .

u can use PM01 transaction for enhancing any Infotype.

2) U can create a totally new screen of IT0105,Subtype 0010 ..say name it as 9046..u can just copy the sap standard screen and then u can do modifications to ur mail ID field length and then in SPRO u have to call this screen whenevr creating IT0105,Subtype 0010 for ur company employees instead of standard SAP screen.

Hope this clarifies the issue.

Thank you, but we only use standard SAP and do not add real customizations
