Introduction :
This Document demonstrates a practical approach to distribute HR / HCM Master data for standard Infotypes and HRP master tables.
The data distribution is from one SAP system to another SAP system.
I have implemented and tested this Approach on ECC 6 SAP systems.
System Versions :
Sending System is on ECC 6 ( SP level 47 )
Receiving system is on ECC 6 ( SP level 97 )
Please note : It is not mandatory to have both systems on ECC6 with specified SP levels in order to distribute data.
Skills :
You need to have a sound background on working of ALE-IDOCS and IDOC extension and IDOC enhancements.
You need to have good understanding of HR processes and master data concepts.
In addition to implement this strategy, consulting team needs to have a HCM Functional consultant.
Requirement in Brief :
Infotypes like PA0000, PA0001, PA0002, PA0006, PA0022, PA0027, PA0041, PA0105 and several tables like HRP1001, HRP1002 etc.
This is for Cutover requirement.
Solution :
The following configuration needs to be done in SENDING system :
This configuration is usually done by Basis Consultants
Maintain Message types HRMD_A and SYNCH.
SYNCH message type is not explicity required but in case you will be distributing Distribution Model,
system will ask you to maintain SYNCH message type.
You need to specify PORT while adding Message type in Partner Profile.
I have created filter for Infotype 0001 which means only Infotype 0001 data will be distributed to receiving system.
we can add required Infotypes in this Filter Group to extend scope of data distribution.
If we do NOT create any filter group, then all Infotypes and HRP tables data ( specified in IDOC : HRMD_A07 ) will be distributed
The following configuration needs to be done in RECEIVING system :
Master Data Distribution Program :
Choose INSERT Radiobutton for 'Transfer Mode' as the data is sent for first time to Receiving system.
Take help of HR Functional consultant for this configuration and data issues and send data again.
Initial approach suggested for this requirement was download data from Sending system in excel file and upload it in Receiving system
using programs and BAPI call.
Advantages of this approach :
Development time is significantly reduced as ALE standard settings are required to transfer data
I will be covering Delta updates to Master Data using Change pointers and UPDATE Mode of program RHALEINI in next document.
