How to know "pernr" after creation of employee with HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA

[Former Member]

Hello,

Anybody any idea how you can know the pernr of the employee you created with HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA?

Problem I am facing:

I create a new employee using HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA.

As I do not have all information required yet, I only update/insert IT0000.

(otherwise the program asks me to "Fill in all required fields")

Then I want to fill up the other IT with HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION, but I don't know the number that was created.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks.

Have you checked the exporting parameter from the fm call?

EXPORTING
*"             VALUE(RETURN) LIKE  BAPIRETURN STRUCTURE  BAPIRETURN
*"             VALUE(RETURN1) LIKE  BAPIRETURN1 STRUCTURE  BAPIRETURN1
*"             VALUE(HR_RETURN) LIKE  HRHRMM_MSG STRUCTURE  HRHRMM_MSG

Hi Ilse Van Loocke

output table MODIFIED_KEYS will have the employee number that was generated along with the Infotypes that were created.

I checked the Modified_keys table and the pernr there is '00000000' instead of the one created '00000040' :'(

Any ideas?

I used NUMBER_GET_NEXT and then substracted 1...

Not the best solution, but it works...
