WD ABAP - HR infotype update

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to develop some custom applications using WDA in ESS for displaying and updating the employee;s infotype records (IT0581, IT0591) and I am new to WD ABAP.

I have completed the beginners tutorials available in sdn and planning to use service call functionality available with WD ABAP in order to display and uppdate infotype records. For this, we are developing some custom RFC;s display data of IT0581, IT0591. Can anybody guide me how to do this ?

Is there any documentation available for same ? What are the best practises or approaches to keep in mind while developing the content for ESS using WDA?

Hi Anil,

Not all ESS applications are in WDA yet, but SAP is moving in that direction. Below is the link which gives you details about each of the ESS application as of EhP3.

Hi Amith,

Thank you for your inputs. I have problem in executing the function module from se37. It gives the short dump.

I have given the following inputs

Infotype : 0021

pernr number : 999

Record : 1

Operation : DIS

Initially, I am during the exercise to display the infotype records. And from se80, I have created a service call for the Webdynpro component. During the service call, I am taking the import parameter as pernr and infotype. But, not sure of export parameter which one to select.

Once this is successfully done, we can map the context of component controller with the view controller in order to get the data from BAPI.

Hi Buddy

You are wrongly passing the parameters. Pass the parameters like this

data : ls_pa0006 TYPE pa0006.
data : ls_p0006 TYPE p0006.
DATA : IT_PA0006 TYPE PA0006 OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LIN
DATA :  RETURN LIKE BAPIRETURN1.
DATA : ERROR_TAB LIKE RETURN OCCURS 0 .

SELECT * FROM PA0006 INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE IT_PA0006
  WHERE ENDDA = '99991231' AND PERNR = PERNR .
SORT IT_PA0006 BY SUBTY.
LOOP AT IT_PA0006.
IF IT_PA0006-SUBTY = '1' .
move-corresponding it_pa0006 to ls_pa0006.
ls_pa0006-name2 = co.
ls_pa0006-stras = STREET1.
ls_pa0006-LOCAT = STREET2.
ls_pa0006-PSTLZ = POSTALCODE.
ls_pa0006-ORT01 = CITY.
ls_pa0006-ORT02 = REGION.
ls_pa0006-TELNR = TELEPHONENUMBER.
move-corresponding ls_pa0006 to ls_p0006.
ls_P0006-INFTY = '0006'.


CALL FUNCTION 'HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION'
  EXPORTING
    INFTY                       = '0006'
    NUMBER                   =  PERNR
    SUBTYPE                  =  '1'
    VALIDITYEND           = IT_PA0006-ENDDA
    VALIDITYBEGIN        = IT_PA0006-BEGDA
    RECORD                   = ls_p0006
    OPERATION              = 'MOD'
   TCLAS                      = 'A'
 IMPORTING
   RETURN                   = RETURN.

I think OPERATION = DIS will not be the correct here. Change operation to insert that is correct. Cehck this code it will work.
