Things to Note (1)
4/26/2008 www.saptopjobs.com 28

29. Personnel Actions
Things to Note (2)
4/26/2008 www.saptopjobs.com 29
• Some fields are defaulted to certain values, for example:
– In some countries, Social Security number will default to IC number.
– Expiry of Probation Date (in Monitoring of Tasks infotype) will default
to a date depending on “Probationary period” (in Contract Element
infotype).
• In most cases, you do not need to change the default information. In
special cases (e.g. Employee has a different Social Security number),
you can override the default.
30. Personnel Actions
Things to Note (3)
4/26/2008 www.saptopjobs.com 30
• Sometimes, you need to maintain additional infotypes
using PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data) after completing
an action, for example:
– After Hiring: Additional allowances (IT0014, only 1
record is allowed during Hiring);Other Family
Members (IT0021, only Spouse allowed during
Hiring), e.g. parents (information required later when
EE applies for bereavement leave)
– After Termination/ Resignation: Delimiting infotypes
that have more than 1 record (only 1 record is
delimited for each infotype during Personnel Action),
such as IT0014, IT0015, IT0045, and IT0057).
