Custom HR Event - Key not filled in certain circumstances

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Sue
If you can reproduce it and its been introduced by ehps and there is no note already raise it.  BUT raise it under HR not under workflow as its a standard HR routine that has changed behaviour

Hi Sue,

I gather from the screenshot that you have managed to replicate this problem? That's good news,at least.
I would be very interested in what the input to HR_ASSEMBLE_OBJECTKEY is, and I would gladly F5 my way down into its innards to see exactly why it isn't returning a key. I assume this will eventually be fixed with a SAP Note, if you haven't found one already.

regards
Rick Bakker

Hello all,
We have a custom workflow to notify when a retiree is rehired.  It’s been running quite happily for 10 years.
The workflow is triggered by the event ZREHIRED, which is configured in ZWEHR3 with a nice Z_HR_EVENT_RULES_PA0001 which determines if the correct action has occurred, we want to raise the ZREHIRED event.

And then the Enhancement Packs happened.  We are on SAP ECC 6.0 – and recently upgraded to EHP5 SPS11.
Since then this event is not always being raised with a Key filled in.  Sometimes it is!  But sometimes it is NOT.
I have determined that a series of events, REHIRED and POSITIONCHANGED precede the custom event when it has blank/zilch/nichts for a pernr.

I have debugged and debugged, searched and searched.

The nearest thing to an explanation I can come up with is that, during the course of saving the rehired person to their organization, the function
HR_ASSEMBLE_OBJECTKEY is called, and comes back with an empty BUSINESSOBJECTKEY.  Please notice in the debugger screen shot below that the field is empty.

I could show you screen shots of the event log and the events that had a key, and those that did not.  I could show a lot of junk.
But I think the key is right here (so to speak).
Has anyone else encountered a problem like this?
And who can I beat up for the way HR events are piggy-backed?
