Hello awesome people,

Just wanted to clarify how , actually I can give an example here. suppose I have Change is position action and it has different reasons. So how can I make different infotypes to come up when you run the action for these reasons.

thanks,

Hi Jess

The Infogroup (Set of Infotypes for an action) can be configured to react differently based on Personnel Structure, User Group and Action Reason. Except for 2nd, you use feature IGMOD and define the decision tree.

In your case, it will drill down to:

IGMOD -> Action Type -> Action Reason -> IGMOD Return Value

Using this return value, you define what Infotype should popup in table V_T588D.

Hi Jessica,

In order to have 'Reason Driven' Actions, you need to setup the feature IGMOD. Here is a step by step explanation:

1. Create Action

2. Assign Infotypes to that action.

3.When you are assigning infotypes to the action make sure you are numbering the Infogroup modifierfor each reason. This will be the driver for which infotypes to use for a specific action reason combination. So if reason 01 has 10 infotypes than all these infotypes will have infotype modifier 01. Next reason is infotype modifier 02 for the whole group of IT that will be impacted by that reason.

4. In the feature IGMOD, use the decision tree to filter by action, then reason and then the return value is the Infogroup Modifier that you have set in step 3.

using your example:

User group is ZH

Infogroup is the action , lets say ZP 'change personnel data'

Reason is 01 update address

So your feature IGMOD is:

Infogroup ZH

Action is ZP

Action Reason (field)

Return value is 01

suppose I have Change is position action and it has different reasons

Reasons can be configured in V_T530 for that Action type

. So how can I make different infotypes to come up when you run the action for these reasons

you are takeing about the infogroup for that action where you can find in the infogroup menu in the the IMG path
