Creating / Maintaining a Report Category is one of the important task in ABAP HR when handling Logical Databases. Report Category provides an added flexibility in term of field selection to be displayed on screen and the handling of fields in the back-end.
PNPCE database in many ways can be said as the extension of PNP logical database. PNP doesn’t contain all the data elements that are now in the expanded Concurrent Employment Database. SAP made an internal decision to not modify PNP, rather supercede it with a newer logical database, PNPCE.
The PNPCE logical database supports the evaluation of HR master data. It includes the functions of the PNP logical database and offers additional evaluation options. Therefore, PNPCE logical database should be preffered over PNP database for all new developments.
The macros will be used to get the data from the various clusters based on the cluster ID.For Buffering purpose we use macros.
For example, when we want to read the data from the cluster RU, we have to pass the cluster ID “RU” and Rx-KEY to the particular macro. By using the Rx-key the macro will fetch the data from the cluster RU.
Basically we use the macros to IMPORT/EXPORT the data to or from the clusters.
