Automating the Hiring (Mass upload)

[Former Member]

Hi,

In one my project since user feel hiring through PA40 is time consuming, we have planned for a automated hiring through custom webdynpro application

As for as now, we were planning to upload a flat file using BAPI & FM (HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA, HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION) combination.

Now I have few doubts on how to go with the same plan

1. HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA is used to hire employee, is it possible to create all infotypes apart from IT000, IT0001 & IT0002 at one shot?

2. If many different user group available and the setting is done in SU3, how to handle that in Technical side?

Regards

Hi Raj

Pl exercise caution when you use that and ensure 0,1,2 data are avauilable.yes this is the FM tat

can be used to upload data all the other inftyps.commit wont sometimes work though its gets uploaded in run time.

regrading your 2nd query ,is this a global implementation ?and SU3 and UGR parameters will

come  into picture ,please ensure you that you maintain a standard UGR for this activity else check

if there is provusion to query UGR in FM.

hope it helps

no worries

Hi,

Instead of going for a development, it is better to go for LSMW  to mass hiring action. you can go to LSMW and create a recording for PA40 with IT0000, IT0001, and IT0002. rest data of the employees can be uploaded through individual LSMW for each Infotype.

following links will help you create LSMW

Hi,

You can even use BDC Programs to upload the master data. It is possible to upload set of infotypes in the same shot (using single flat file) by giving mandatory input fields

Thanks

Do you want Mass Upload employee's data into many infotypes right? You can do it by using LSMW with T-code PA30 and IF 0000. You cannot do it in PA40.

Lets create LSMW with T-code PA30, you will resolve your issues

Hope it helps!
