Hi Anil,

Infotypes are HR-specific structures that are used to organize Employee master data.

In the background, they also update table fields (PAXXXX & PBXXXX).

However, they present more than a table : Easy data entry, logical database reporting, etc.

An infotype consists of a table (PAXXXX - PBXXXX), module pool (MPXXXX00), screen (e.g. 2000), subtypes.
