How to get immediate manager from the org. hierarchy - any FM or Table

[Former Member]

Dear All,

Is there any way of getting immediate manager name in the org. hierarchy? Can you please suggest any FM or table from where we can derive the immediate manager?

Check out the Business Object BUS4101. Test it by giving an userid in the Instance and see the runtime values of the BO.

you might find some useful information in the various attributes of the business object.

Hi,

Sorry for the wrong link.

The foll sample code should help:

DATA : ls_ac_container type swcont,

lt_ac_container TYPE TABLE OF swcont,

lt_approver TYPE TABLE OF swhactor.

lv_creator TYPE swp_agent.

CONCATENATE 'US' <User Id> INTO lv_creator.

clear ls_ac_container.

MOVE : 'ORG_OBJECT' TO ls_ac_container-element ,

'000000' TO ls_ac_container-tab_index ,

'014' TO ls_ac_container-elemlength ,

'C' TO ls_ac_container-type ,

lv_creator TO ls_ac_container-value .

APPEND ls_ac_container to lt_ac_container.

REFRESH lt_approver.

CALL FUNCTION 'SWX_GET_MANAGER'

TABLES

actor_tab = lt_approver

ac_container = lt_ac_container

EXCEPTIONS

nobody_found = 1

OTHERS = 2.

Dear All,

The function module SWX_GET_MANAGER is not working through BAdI when a shopping cart is created. I was trying to get the manager name of the user who has created the shopping cart. Please can anyone help me on this?
