How to Create Personnel Area

All HCM (HR) Community -
I am new to SAP and I just started online training on SAP HCM...is there anyone out there who can help me with creating Personnel Area? My question is that I am trying to Create Personnel Area and I'm kind of lost in transition. I would really appreciate any help I can get.
Regards,
Obra

Obra,
Is there an existing Personnel Area to copy? If not, search though SAP web sites for direction. If so, go through the IMG as you have.
Double click the activity u201CCopy, delete, check personnel areau201D.
Press the u201CCopyu201D button. Press u201CEnteru201D.
Provide the Personnel Area to be copied.
Provide the Personnel Area to be created.
Press u201CContinueu201D. Press u201CEnteru201D three times.
Then SAVE.
There will be a delay while the system copies the record.
Press the u201CEnteru201D button.
Press the green u201CBacku201D arrow.
Double click the activity u201CPersonnel areasu201D.
Press the u201CPositionu201D button near the bottom of the screen.
Enter the newly created u201CPersonnel Areau201D, and then press u201CEnteru201D.
Select the Personnel Area, and then press the u201CDetailsu201D button.
Change the appropriate fields.
Press the last button on the tool bar that resembles an envelope.
Maintain what is required.
Then SAVE.
The navigation path supplied earlier also leads to Personnel Subareas, Employee Groups, and Employee Subgroups. These may already be defined. If not, you need may help brainstorming the ultimate requirements for the future. One of the things to consider is whether or not you are now or will be using the Payroll module. Personnel subareas could be used to define the shift on which an employee works if youu2019ll have people doing shift work. Employee group and subgroup fields sound like a good place to define direct and indirect employees.
Navigate as follows to assign a Personnel Area to a Company Code:
Enterprise Structure > Assignment > Human Resources Management > Assignment of Personnel Area to Company Code
If you are running payroll in the US, Personnel Area is the basis for accumulating wage and tax information by legal entity. The Tax Company Code is SAP terminology for the legal entity. To assign a Personnel Area to a Tax Company Code, navigate as follows:
Payroll > Payroll: USA > Tax > Tax Companies > Assign tax company to personnel area
You may find the following Wiki helpful, although it doesnu2019t directly relate to creating Personnel Areas. The URL is:

How to create an Area(or shape) from a set of points?

In fact I want to accomplish a function which can fill an area of same color on an image, just like the Magic Wand tool in Photoshop.
I have written a function to figure out the points which should be included in the Area, but I don't know how to create the Area from a set of points...:(
I tried to create Rectengel2D from each point, the union them one by one, but it's too slow
Anyone can help me? Thanks

you should look att the fillPolygon api instead, it can draw more than one corner.
I would use it in a paintComponent method and a method that creates the x and y cordinates for each corner.

How to map personnel Areas

Hi Experts,
Company XYZ have head office in hyderabad and it have branches in all states in india and also they have in 10 countries.In this scenario how to map personnel area and subareas.Is it necessary to need seperate company codes for abroad branches.
Regards
kishore

Hi,
Manikya is correct. You first need at least one Company Code per country you are in. You may have more than one if you have different subsidiaries which each keep their own chart of accounts. Then you can assign Personnel Areas as distinct locations to each Company Code. The Personnel Subarea could then be the functions within that location.
Example: Company Code - US00. Personnel Area - New York (NY00) , Personnel Area - Chicago (CH00)
Personnel Subareas - Finance (0001), Human Resources (0002), Sales (0003), Warehouse (0004).
Thus, you could have US00 - NY00 0001 NY00 0002 NY00 0003 where New York has Finance, HR and Sales
US00 - CH00 0002, CH00 0003, CH00 0004 where Chicago has HR, Sales and a warehouse.

How to create an area menu?

Hi all,
I am at se41 (menu painter)...what are the next steps to create an area menu?
Thanks,
Charles.

Hi,
Go to SE41-> Program Name -> Give PF Status(ZTEST) name
I think your requirement it to create Application Tool bar.
Expand the node Application Tool Bar -> give the desired name for *Function Code(ZSTATUS)* and double click on it. It will ask for Functional Type- leave it blank. Give some text in the Functional texts and Info Text. If you want to a icon to be displayed then select the icon from the dropdown. In the program you need to write code for this Function Code .
Ex. SET-PF Status 'ZTEST'.
case sy-ucomm.
when 'ZSTATUS'.
call transaction 'VA01'.
endcase.
Hope this would be useful.
Thanks and Regards

How to Create Personnel Numbers in SAP?

Hi All,
Hope you're well. Sorry to bother you,
I am currently working as SAP support in FI/CO and 1 of my tasks is to create personal No's for staff so when an expense invoice is being posted into FI, the AP clark could have the option of filling the Personnal No for an employee so we could then run a report to show all journeys/expenses the employee has taken.
Could somebody please explain to me in detail what steps I must do to create a Personnel No and use it on an expense invoice.
Could you kindly help me by explaining the steps I need to take from the start. Including Tranaction Codes if possible.
Your help is much appriciated,
Many thanks in advance
Alex

Hello
I hope for you that all it is customized.
The good way it is to create by PA30 and after to create the vendor view by PRAA.
Your question is not very clear to answer with the good sentences.
So could you precise if the HR is customized, and it is how use the standard transaction to create a personnal number.
Or your need is it to do this customizing ? I have some document to do it but there is in french.
Best regards
Philippe

How to Create Personnel Numbers in FI?

Hi All,
Hope you're well. Sorry to bother you,
I am currently working as SAP support in FI/CO and 1 of my tasks is to create personal No's for staff so when an expense invoice is being posted into FI, the AP clark could have the option of filling the Personnal No for an employee so we could then run a report to show all journeys/expenses the employee has taken.
I have my own number range which I would like to use. Also all employees have vendor accounts opened under there names.
I would need to create a vendor range for employees or do I just use the preivious employee numbers?
Could you kindly help me by explaining the steps I need to take from the start. Including Tranaction Codes if possible.
Your help is much appriciated,
Many thanks in advance
Alex

Hi,
Personnel numbers are created in HR module of SAP and to supplement the expense related postings we create employee vendors in FI module.
To make this happen we should use the transaction PRAA which automatically copies the HR master data from HR tables and fills it up in the employee vendor master record.
However the program only copies client level data, that is, name address and all.
The company code level data still needs to be updated in the employee vendor master record. This data comes from the reference vendor which you need to mention in the PRAA selection screen.
When you execute the program PRAA for creating employee vendors for the selected Personnel Numbers, the program copies recon accounts, payment terms, house bank etc froom the reference vendor.
For using PRAA transaction, the following details must be filled up in the corresponding HR master record:-
1.) Actions (Infotype 0000)
2.) Organizational Assignment (Infotype 0001)
3.) Personal Data (Infotype 0002)
4.) Permanent Residence (Infotype 0006 Subtype 1)
5.) Bank Details (Infotype 0009 Subtype 0 or 2)
If these are not present, the program will give you an error and tell you what information is actually missing.
Now regarding the number range, you should create a separate account group for employee vendors and assign a number range to it.
If you want the personnel no=vendor number then you will have to make the number range as external and adjust the user exit routing 'SET_VENDOR_NO_BY_USER' (in include RPRAPAEX_001).
Please read the PRAA documentation (which is given in the blue coloured "i" button on the PRAA screen next to execute button).
Using PRAA also helps in cases where exmployee is getting transferred from one company code to another. It gives better control to the system.
You should avoid using FK01 and XK01 for creating employee vendors.
Best of luck,
Nitish

New Business Areas can be created anytime in the Enterprise structure in the IMG. However, in the year of creation, no comparison can be done with the previous year data as the Business Area did not exist in the previous year and there are no postings in the previous year.
After create the new Business Areas, new G/L accounts should be created for :-
Sales
Cost of Sales
External Process Cost
Consumption
Material Change
Purchase
Cost of Difference for Production
Factory Output for Production Order
Next create a default account assignment to maintained the link for cost center and business area.
Transaction OKB9
Enter the Company Code and Cost Element
Cocd      Cost elem.      Acct assignment detail
Enter the details as per business area/valuation area

Personnel Area Config

Hi Gurus,
I need some good info on how to go about creating personnel areas, (and importantly), what are the important configuration involved in creating them.
A good link or some good material on it through email would be awsome.
Thanks,
Vivek

Hi All,
Thanks a lot for the links, though I have gone through it before.
Could you please help me with this:
Suppose I copy a Personnel Area from an existing PA. What could be the possible checks and manual config I would need to do to ensure smooth functioning.
For example, in payroll rules, would I need to go through every rule, and check if any hardcoding for personnel areas is done? What could be the other possible thing involved?
This answer would be really helpful.
Thanks,
Vivek
