Maintaining Attribute Characteristics

All SRM Attributes are stored in table T77OMATTR. In order to change the behavior of an attribute or create a new attribute, this table need to be maintained using SM30.

Planning in Org Structure

Organizational Management allows us to depict our Companys Structure in past, at present and in future using Plan Version, Validity Periods and Plan Status.

Plan versions allow you to manage several organizational plans in the system at the same time. Different plan versions can be used to experiment with different scenarios, for simulations and for comparison purposes. Only one of these plan versions represents the valid organizational plan, and is flagged as the active or integrated plan version Plan versions exist independently of each other This facility enables you to prepare for future staff requisitions or changes and, thereby, respond accordingly. Plan versions allow you to depict alternative plans in the system, however only one plan can be integrated at a time. Plan versions exist independently of each other. They can be created as a copy of the original plan in statements using report RHCOPL00 Copy Plan Version Report RHCOPLPT Reconcile Plan Version supports you when transferring data from an inactive plan version to the active and integrated plan version. Nevertheless, this report is not able to update personal data in info type 0001. This can lead to inconsistencies in the integration between Personnel Administration and Personnel Planning (SAP Note 354019). Note: The plan version .: must not be used or deleted because it is used for transporting data to other clients or systems
