Time Constraints in HR Master Data

Time constraints guarantee that exactly the data the system needs to be able to correctly process the employee data, handle personnel administration processes and run payroll for an employee is available in the system. Time constraints keep you from storing mutually incompatible data and prevent gaps from occurring in the data history.

Time Constraint 1
Time constraint 1 must be used for all of the infotypes containing information that must be available at all times. This is particularly true of personal and organizational assignment data.

Time Constraint 2
No more than one valid record can exist at any one time. Records with constraint 2 must not overlap.

Time Constraint 3
Any number of valid records can exist at any one time. The individual records do not conflict with each other.

  Time Constraint A
Infotypes with time constraint A must have no more than one record. The system automatically assigns the record a validity period from January 01, 1800 through December 31, 9999. This validity period cannot be subdivided.
Infotype records with time constraint A cannot be deleted.

Time Constraint B
Infotypes with time constraint B must have no more than one record. The system automatically assigns the record a validity period from January 01, 1800 through December 31, 9999. This validity period cannot be subdivided.
Infotype records with time constraint B can be deleted.

Time Constraint T
Infotype records with time constraint T depend on the subtype.

Time Constraint Z
The infotypes you use for entering working and absence time have a special time constraint behavior.
