The aim of the Human Resources component is to enable companies to process employee related data according to business requirements in an effective structure. The Human Resources module uses a system of data grouped together called infotypes. Infotypes mirror a quantity of connected data records; infotypes are identifiable through a four character numerical string [e.g. infotype Addresses (0006)] and a complete listing is included. You can save the infotypes as time dependent to enable a retroactive evaluation of Employee data. The infotypes appear as an entry screen for the user, through which you can maintain infotype records. Infotypes can be processed individually or in fast entry mode.
