SWEHR1/2/3 - Adding REQUESTED event to PERSDATA on ESS Name Change

[Sathish Venkatesan]

Rick

I would say add a new record for PERSDATA and leave the other one there. We
have similar HR workflows in our syatem and I always added new entries. No
issues so far after 2 major upgrades.

Just a thought - Instead of using BADI\Exit to lock the record, you can
control it through ESS role authorization value such that when they change
that particular infotype, it will always create a locked record. I think the
value is 'S' and "D' for creation and deletion of locked record.

Regards,
Sathish
