Definition
Sort criteria sequence
You can use this parameter to define the sort criteria for lists.
You can choose the following criteria:
Company code
' Personnel area
' ' Personnel subarea
' ' ' Cost center
' ' ' ' Employee group
' ' ' ' ' Employee subgroup
' ' ' ' ' ' Organizational unit
' ' ' ' ' ' ' Personnel ID
' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' Name
' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' '
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
The parameter is nine characters long. Each character is assigned to a sort criterion (see above).
For example, 1st character for company code, 2nd for personnel area, etc. You can define the sort sequence by assigning priorities to the individual sort criteria. Enter a '1' under the sort criterion with the highest priority. Proceed in the same manner for the sort criterion with the second highest priority and enter '2'.
Note: The 'Sort: field names type' database sort parameter is replaced by this parameter, and may therefore not be used.
Examples:
----------
a) Sort according to company code, cost center, personnel subarea and employee group.
Solution: 1234567
Sort sequence ... 1 234
The remaining sort criteria do not apply and therefore do not need to be entered.
b) Parameter default:
1234567
Sort sequence... 1234567
results in sorting by:
Company code, personnel area, personnel subarea, cost center,
employee group, employee subgroup, organizational unit
