Adding/Creating new records

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am new in ABAP and would appreciate help with sample code on how I can add employee address record into SAP HR. I know there is a method called EmployeePrivateAddrUS.Creat but I don't have a clue how I can use it or whether there is a better way to add record .

Thank you in advance,

Sunny

Hello Anand,

Thank you for your help. I have another related question. I need to add all the information for a new employee. It appears this method to create only the address information for an employee. Is there a different BAPI I must use to first add a new employee?

I appreciate your help.

How about BAPI_PERSDATA_CREATE?

Hi Sansanee

For any employee operation you can use the FM <b>'HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION'</b>. E.g. to create a new employee you should use this FM to create a 0000 record.

I have an example at .

Hello Sunny,

Yes, there is a Business Object for Employee Address - EmployeePrivateAdrUS. And there's a method for this object called Create. The employee address data in maintained in the Infotype 0006.

In SAP this method is implemented by a special kind of Function Module, called BAPI. In this case, the BAPI you would have to use is BAPI_ADDRESSEMPUS_CREATE. Please read the documentation for this BAPI carefully before you go ahead with it.

Here's the code sample of how this BAPI is called :-

* define the structure which is to contain the 
* employee's address data

tables bapip0006.  

* Fill the vaious fields of this structure as appropriate.
* But the first three fiedls , PERNR , BEGDA and ENDDA are mandatory.



* Define the structure for capturing the error messages 
* from the BAPI, if any.

data return  type bapireturn1.




  CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ADDRESSEMPUS_CREATE'
       EXPORTING
            employeenumber   = bapip0006-pernr
            validitybegin    = bapip0006-begda
            validityend      = bapip0006-endda
            addresstype      = bapip0006-anssa
            coname           = bapip0006-name2
            streetandhouseno = bapip0006-stras
            scndaddressline  = bapip0006-locat
            city             = bapip0006-ort01
            district         = bapip0006-ort02
            postalcodecity   = bapip0006-pstlz
            state            = bapip0006-state
            country          = bapip0006-land1
            telephonenumber  = bapip0006-telnr
            commtype1        = bapip0006-com01
            commnumber1      = bapip0006-num01
            commtype2        = bapip0006-com02
            commnumber2      = bapip0006-num02
            commtype3        = bapip0006-com03
            commnumber3      = bapip0006-num03
            commtype4        = bapip0006-com04
            commnumber4      = bapip0006-num04
            COMMTYPE5        = bapip0006-com05
            COMMNUMBER5      = bapip0006-num05
            COMMTYPE6        = bapip0006-com06
            COMMNUMBER6      = bapip0006-num06
            nocommit         = nocommit
       IMPORTING
            return           = return.

  if not ( return is initial ).
*   there were some messages sent back by the BAPI
*   appropritae processing to be done here....
  endif.

Before you call the above BAPI, you need to Enqueue the Employee Record and after you call it, you will have to Dequeue the same. For more information, refer to the BAPI's documentation.
