Documentation

Definition

The view indicator is used to combine infotypes to views.

The feature IVWID assigns an infotype view indicator to organizational data such as personnel area, employee group, employee subgroup and country grouping.

The view indicator may not be changed since the records of the "primary" and "secondary" infotype must always have the same keys. To ensure this, the view indicator is stored in the "Payroll Status" infotype (0003).

Example

In the "Basic Pay" infotype (0008), additional data for the German Civil Service is stored in the structure P0230. This data is maintained in view V008.

Use

Procedure

Enter the view indicators that are linked to views of infotypes 0001, 0008, 0027 and 0052 in the public sector group.
These indicators must also be assigned to all selected personnel numbers of infotype 0003.

View indicators are created in the feature IVWID; infotypes are assigned to these views in table T582V.
