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.
Sunny
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.
