PA and OM Integration

Hi friends,

PA-OM integration is one of the complex issues or one of the most 'problematic' issue in SAP-HR. Let us look at usual 'problems' and solutions.


--> 
Problem: Updating infotypes Planned Compensation (1005), Account Assignment (1008) and Emp Group/Subgroup (1013), is not flowing into Org assignment (0001).
Solution: These three OM infotypes are used to default values or propose valid values for the OM objects. These values can always be overwritten in the PA side. When the integration is active, and the data entered in PA side do not match with the valid/default values mentioned in these infotypes, a warning message will be shown at PA side, and you can still overwrite it.
As we can understand, with the above functionality, these OM infotypes cannot be expected to flow to PA. See the similar explanation in SAP Note 1429161

-->
Problem: The Position/Org unit description were changed in infotype 1000, but the same are not reflecting in IT0001
Example scenario:  Infotype 0001 is from 1/1/2011 to 31/12/9999. The position in this infotype has a record in infotype 1000 from 1/1/2011 to 31/12/9999.
Now I am going to PP01 and changing the name of the position from XXXXX to YYYYY effective 15/01/2011 and expect this to reflect in infotype 0001.

Solution:
--> Any change in to OM attributes do not automatically flow into PA (even with RHINTE*). In such cases it is better to create a record from the same effective date in PA as well (i.e. 15/01/2011). In that case the new changed attributes will be shown in PA side.

-->
Problem: When bulk updates happens through BDC/LSMW integration does not happen, and we have to run RHINTE* reports for the integration to reflect.
Solution: When bulk uploads and BDC sessions, integration is switched off. SAP clarifies this in SAP note as well So after such updates you need to run the RHINTE* reports.



-->
Problem: When few updates happen through ABAP code using standard FMs, integration to other module does not happen (Ex: RH_INSERT_INFTY, RH_CUT_INFTY_1001_EXT)
Solution: Ensure that in such FMs, vtask = 'D'. That is update happening in dialog mode.
