Creating / Updating Custom Infotype Records

Hello everbody,
We implement alot of custom HR infotypes in our system, both PA & HRP.
For the past several we have been using BDC (Batch-Input) recorded functions in order to update / create the records in our infotypes.
We're currently facing an upcoming ECC upgrade , and I would like to lead a change that will eventually lead to us using generic SAP supplied functions.
I've researched a few functions that might do the trick:
RH_INSERT_INFTY:
This one is giving me an SY-SUBRC 2 error code - Insert error, I tried to select a current record and insert it as different objid but this doesnt work.
HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION:
I've read of several people that recommended using this function, but it is not released by SAP and I couldnt get it to work as well.
BAPI_HRMASTER_SAVE_REPL_MULT:
This one seems to work for sap infotypes but I dont think it suits custom infotypes.
What is the "official" way of doing such operations?
thanks in advance,
Eli.

Hello Dilak,
Im currently trying to insert a new infotype record of infotype HRP9226.
First I call function RH_GET_NEXT_NUMBER to get an objid.
then I fill an HRP9226 line.
after this i call the function:
call function 'RH_INSERT_INFTY'
exporting
FCODE = 'INSE'
vtask = 'S'
ORDER_FLG = 'X'
COMMIT_FLG = 'X'
AUTHY = ' '
PPPAR_IMP =
OLD_TABNR = ' '
REPID = ' '
FORM = ' '
KEEP_LUPD =
WORKF_ACTV = 'X'
tables
innnn = hrp9226_line
ILFCODE =
EXCEPTIONS
NO_AUTHORIZATION = 1
ERROR_DURING_INSERT = 2
REPID_FORM_INITIAL = 3
CORR_EXIT = 4
BEGDA_GREATER_ENDDA = 5
OTHERS = 6
I'm getting an "Error_During_Insert" and Im out of options regarding what I can possibly do.

Creating / updating Custom infotype with different screen

Hi All,
I have created custom infotype having different screen for different subtype(1,2).
From Subtype 1, indotype is automatically updated as it is a standard program. But for subtype 2 i am using HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION for updating the record which is ending with error, as employee which i am trying to update is already locked by me only through PA30. So this function module ends with Complex error. Please suggest how to update the infotype with subtype 2.
Thanking you..
Best regards
Akshay

Performance issue while updating the custom infotype records

Hi All
i have the info type with 80,000 records my requirement is to change the infotype wage type value to the certain hard coded values .
after populating the final internal table , in loop i am passing the records and updating the info type by using the hr_infotype_operation function module
i have done the coding like bellow .
loop at lt_infotype assigning < x>
at new pernr.
bapi_employee_enquee
endat.
hr_infotype_operation
at end of pernr .
bapi_employee_dequee.
endat.
end loop.
but it is taking nearly 15 hours to update all the records .please suggest me better solution for reducing the execution time .
Thanks & Regards ,
pramodh.m

The delay problem can be solved with HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION by using it with another FM i.e. HR_PSBUFFER_INITIALIZE the delay happens because of buffer problem. Use HR_PSBUFFER_INITIALIZE inside the loop just before you call HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION and you wont see that much delay.

Updating custom infotype with FM 'HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION' dumps

Hi All,
While updating a custom infotype 9008 with FM 'HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION', its giving adump.
Except. CX_HRPA_INVALID_PARAMETER.
I am using DIALOG_MODE as '1'. when I enter a valid field value to that particular field ( mandatory field) on that infotype, it gives dump.
Can you suggest something which will solve this?
Thanks.
Dipti.

Hi,
Here is the dump.
Runtime Errors         UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION
Except.                CX_HRPA_INVALID_PARAMETER
Date and Time          12.11.2008 07:23:32
Short text
An exception occurred that was not caught.
What happened?
The exception 'CX_HRPA_INVALID_PARAMETER' was raised, but it was not caught
anywhere along
the call hierarchy.
Since exceptions represent error situations and this error was not
adequately responded to, the running ABAP program
'CL_HRPA_RESOLVE_EXCEPTION=====CP' has to be
terminated.
Error analysis
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_HRPA_INVALID_PARAMETER', was not
caught in
procedure "RESOLVE_EXCEPTION" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
clause.
Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
The reason for the exception is:
Invalid parameter EXCEPTION, value
The occurrence of the exception is closely related to the occurrence of
a previous exception "CX_HRPA_VIOLATED_PRECONDITION", which was raised in the
program "CL_HRPA_MASTERDATA_FACTORY====CP",
specifically in line 6 of the (include) program
"CL_HRPA_MASTERDATA_FACTORY====CM004".
The cause of the exception was:
Precondition Violated

Creating Update and deleting Records Forms

Hi Guys
Hopefully some one can help me with this, I am using php and
mysql, I already have a page that shows all the records of
customers details, which I can navigate through the pages of
records.
I have created a update page, using the update wizard, which
works but only shows the first record. I have added a repeat region
and page navigation which allows me to choose individual records
but wont update those records.
I also took a look at a tutorial video that had you adding an
extra column and add the word update to add a hyperlink that took
you to the update form with that particular record for updating,
the video was using cold fusion the link was update page address
then this ?ID=#ID#, I tried different versions of this with no
success.
I also tried to alter the record set and added a filter using
Member_ID and = paramater URL, this made my cusomter detail page
stop working.
can some one help please
Cheers
Mark

I'm not familiar with the ASP server behaviors, but there is
a Master
Detail Page Set for PHP (it's on the Insert > Data Objects
menu).
Creating an update page is very easy.
1. Create a page that lists all records in the database.
2. Alongside each record, create a link to the update page.
3. When creating the link, click the Parameters button inside
the Select
File dialog box.
4. In the Name field of the Parameters dialog box, type the
name of the
primary key (ID).
5. Click the lightning bolt icon to the right of the Value
field, and
select the primary key from the recordset.
6. Click OK twice to close both dialog boxes.
7. Save the page and test it in a browser. When you mouse
over each
link, it should display a URL that looks something like this:
update.php?id=3. The name/value pair after the question mark
pass the
details of the record as a URL parameter to the update page.
8. In the update page, create a recordset that uses the URL
parameter as
a filter to select a single record depending on the value
sent from the
previous page.
9. In the update page, create a hidden field to store the ID
from the
recordset (click the lightning bolt icon alongside the Value
field to
insert the dynamic data).
10. Apply an Update Record server behavior. Make sure the
primary key
gets its value from the hidden field in the form.
Alternatively, if you don't want to build your own update
form, replace
steps 9 and 10 by using the Record Update Form Wizard (Insert
> Data
Objects > Update Record > Record Update Form Wizard).

Not able to create a customer master record with US as the country code

Hey All,
I am not able to create customer master data in the Transaction Code XD01/FD01 with the country code as US.
The error message for the same is *NO JURISDICTION CODE* COULD BE DETERMINED. I have checked the tax code settings but could not locate the problem.
I have checked the field in the account group(OBD2) but tax code is in optional status
and also checked the country settings for US in the transaction code OY17 still the same error message,
but when I tried checking the settings for a different company code's customer data base (us in county code)
I can see that there is a number mentioned in the address tab under tax jurisdiction field (beside time zone) which is not populating for this company code.
So, do anyone know where exactly we mention this number so that it populates in that field of address.
Hope am clear.
hope to receive a solution
thanks & regards
vinila

Hi,
You need to maintain the JURISDICTION CODE for country US. This JURISDICTION CODE code mainatanance purely FI/CO part.. it depends on the country's tax procedures.. Better take the help from your FI/CO consultant..
Menu path for Defining tax jurisdiction code
IMG -- Financial accounting -- Financial accounting global settings -- tax on sales and purchases -- basic settings -- define tax jurisdiction

Create Custom Infotype and handle Modification/Updation

Hi All,
I need to create a custom infotype and handle few checks while creating/updating the existing one.
I have gone through the existing threads and have figured out the creation part.
Could anyone tell me where i need to code the checks while creating/updating.
I tried editing the PBO/PAI of the Module pool program, but as its standard, is asking for access key. Do we need to code this in any userexit or implement BADI.
For example,
a) i need to check that only one instance of the infotype should be valid for an
employee at a time
b) This infotype should be created for only Employees and not contingent workers.
c) Few fields on the body section needs to be updated/modified.
Thanks and Regards
Manish.

You can use the IN_UPDATE or AFTER_INPUT Methods of the BAdI HRPAD00INFTY to perform your validations.

Creating custom infotype

Hi,
I want to create a custom infotype with the following fields.
Molga (country grouping)
Personnel Number
Subtype
Language Key
Comment Line 1
Comment Line 2
Comment Line 3
in this first 4 fields are keys. The user should be able to edit only the rest of the fields.
Subtypes similar to the infotypes values 0168,0169,0014,0015,0009,0006,0002 should be created.
While updating and saving the infotypes 0168,0169,0014,0015,0009,0006,0002 the system should prompt this infotype through dynamic action to enable the user to enter comments.
can anyone give me a step by step approach for creating this infotype?
Thanks in advance...
