Upload Business Partners from HR with the role RESOURCE

Former Member

Hello everybody,

do you know how one can upload from HR the BPs with the role RESOURCE and as well populate the Costing Tab with a cost rate for the resource? Normally the BPs get created with the Role EMPLOYEE, but we need the RESOURCE role as well. Moreover, when a BP is pushed from HR one cannot make any changes to it (create role Resource in cProjects directly). cProjects ad HR are on different instances (so we need to use ALE).

Any help in this matter will be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

L.

Hi,

for creating BP with the role "RESOURCE", you will have to first create the BP role resource as per the following steps. Then you can create the BP with role "Resource".

SPRO>CROSS APPLICATION COMPONENTS->SAP BUSINESS PARTNER->BUSINESS PARTNER>BASIC SETTINGS>BUSINESS PARTNER ROLES->DEFINE BP ROLES.

Define the BP role "Resource" - WFM001.

Please let me know if it helps.

Regards

Hi

I also have the same requirement, have not figured out the complete solution yet but can share what i have found so far. There are multiple exits in cProjects for inbound processing of IDOCs but to create the resource role we need something which is called after the BP creation in IDOC processing.

Therefore, the best way is to tap the event 'CREATION' for BP object BUS1006 and can trigger your code( Function Module call or Workflow Task ) to add role resource to the newly created BP. There is a BAPI available to add the role. BUT i cannot see how i am going to fill/add the attributes of resource role for BP. I have checked but could not find any BAPI which does so.

If you have any other information or have made any progress in this, please let me know.
