Description
Conversion of the HR functional area of the ABAP/4 query for release3.0D. The structure of the HR functional area has changed. This programconverts your old functional area to the new structure. Once theconversion has taken place, the new functionalities for maintaining thefunctional area are available. The conversion is carried out for thefunctional area specified as well as for all the relevant queries. Ifproblems arise when you try to start the queries directly after theconversion has taken place, please regenerate the query. Use thefollowing menu to generate the query: TA SQ01 -> Query -> Additionalfunctions -> Generate program.
Additional fields used to be assigned in the table T770Q (Additionaland Table Fields for HR Query). As of release 3.0D, a syntax check iscarried out before the functional area is generated to check that theall the additional fields assigned to a functional area can only becalled using specific entry parameters. The general ABAP/4 queryrestrictions appliy here, i.e. you can only use constants or infotypefields to which the additional field is assigned as entry parameters.
Otherwise, you will receive an error message when you are editing a newor a converted functional area (TA SQ02 - Functional area maintenance).
The entry parameters for the additional fields are stored in tableT770S (Module calls for HR Query). Please change your own additionalfield calls in accordance with your new guidlines. (Here the permittedentry parameters are fields for the corresponding infotypes andconstants - this restriction did not exist before 3.0D).
You must now change the coding for the FORM calls in the relevantreports (PRMPAQPN, RPMPAQZT or RPMPAQPC).
If you receive an error message when you are changing a functional areathat has already been converted that refers to calling up additionalfields, you can choose the relevant additional field in the functionalarea maintenance using the additional field option. A popup appearsasking you if you want to 'Delete the additional field' via deleteadditional field. You should press the 'no' button. You then branchinto the 'Additioanal Field' screen. You can carry out the necessarychanges here. If you press Enter in this screen, you will receive thecorresponding error message. In this instance, correct the relevantareas.
