Sending a work item to a Person

Fri Apr 7 15:06:06 EDT 2006

In the IMG from Personnel Management --> Personnel Administration --> Communication --> Create communication tyes you should see an entry for '0001' under sybtype and 'System user name (SY-UNAME)' under the Name column and '2' under the time constraint column. Well it does in my system and most systems I've worked on.

If its not like that I would go talk to the HR config folks and double check.

Cheers and good luck.

It doesn't accept '0001' as a valid entry. In SE16 the T591A entry appears as '1' rather than '0001' (there is a '0010' but that is for email address).

The '0001' that the code is looking for as the subtype is coming from table T77S0, the entry with MAIL / SAPSY. However from looking through the WUG archives that seems to be correct.
