Drawbacks on program: Delete Personnel Number (RPUDELPN)

[Former Member]

Hi, Experts,

I am using this program "Delete Personnel Number (RPUDELPN)" to delete personnel data. It works fine in Development environment. But it fails to work if T000-CCCATEGORY = "P" (production client).

I am thinking of copying a program and comment the following codes, so the program can go through in production.

IF t000-cccategory EQ 'P'.

MESSAGE e637.

ENDIF.

However, my question is: (1) is there any drawbacks on running this program in production? (2) Why this standard program set this error message? any special reasons?

Did you try Tcode PU01 instead?

Hi Suresh,

Thanks for your reply.

Since I have to delete the personnel in batches, while PU00 can only delete one single personnel. So I think I still have to use RPUDELPN.

Hi,

My take is as deleting Personnel numbers is not recommended we always have this message for Production client. We too had the same problem and had run it after commenting , and reverted back to the original once the work was over. There are no drawbacks as such but again it depends on you business process ,whereall it effects once you delete the number.

I have not seen the notes as mentioned by others maybe you go thro them and try

Hi Wai Man Tang ,

Why this standard program set this error message? any special reasons?

Obviously special reason if the person really dont know about it mistakenly run the report ?

Then assume the tragedy!!

There is some note for this i dont remember but can do if it is required.

No problem .
