Documentation
Definition
The data fields for Human Resources (HR) master data, time management, and applicant data are grouped logically into information types, infotypes for short.
Examples of infotypes are "Family/Related Person", "Organizational Assignment" oder "Basic Pay".
The following naming conventions are used for infotypes:
- Infotypes 0000 to 0999 for HR master data and possibly applicant data
- Infotypes 1000 to 1999 for Organizational Management
- Infotypes 2000 to 2999 for time data
- Infotypes 4000 to 4999 for applicant data
- Infotypes 9000 to 9999 for customer-specific infotypes

Infotype
Definition
Data on the HR database PREL is not stored by field but
according to logical aspects, i.e. it is combined to
information types.
Expl.: family, workplace, basic pay information types
Information types 9000 to 9999 are reserved for customers.
Supplementary Documentation - INFTYPA 0002
Use
Here you can enter the infotypes that you want to reorganize. You can use all the options offered in a selection option for data selection. If you specify infotypes in your interval that cannot be reorganized because of their time constraint or the time constraint of their infotypes, the system automatically excludes these infotypes from the selection.

Supplementary Documentation - INFTYPA 0003
Use
Here you specify which infotype is evaluated by the valuation rule. Intervals are created for time periods for which infotype records exist.
Procedure
Specify the infotype number of the infotype that is to be used to create intervals.
Examples
Dependencies
You must also specify a subtype if subtypes are defined for the infotype.
The system is unable to permit all infotypes (subtypes) for the interval creation because of technical reasons. Use the input help to find permitted infotypes.
The system only supports the infotypes (subtypes) that have time constraint 1, 2 or T. In addition, the system does not support the infotypes for applicant data.
Supplementary Documentation - INFTYPA 0004
Use
You specify here which infotype is evaluated by the infotype selection condition. Intervals are generated during the calculation of time data (for example, length of service) for time periods for which the infotype selection condition has been entered in the employee data.
Procedure
Specify the infotype number of the infotype that is to be used to create intervals.

Supplementary Documentation - INFTYPA 0005
Use
The infotype that was defined for this infotype selection condition.
Procedure
Examples
Dependencies
The system was unable to permit all infotypes (subtypes) for the interval creation because of technical reasons.
Only the infotypes (subtypes) that have time constraint 1, 2 or T are supported. In addition, infotypes for applicant data are not supported.
Supplementary Documentation - INFTYPA 0010
Use
If the headers overlap with records of this infotype when you add a new record of the infotype, the system reacts according to the indicator in the Reaction Indicator field.
Procedure

Supplementary Documentation - INFTYPA 0011
Use
