action type.
- In Customizing for Personnel Administration, you can tailor
the make-up of the various infogroups to the requirements of your company.
- You can define infogroups as user-group dependent.
*-- Debjani Paul
Infogroups are used in Personnel Actions to define a set of sequencial
infotypes that you would be using while performing an action. For example,
when you hire, you would want to use IT0000,0001,0002,0006,0007,0008 etc
in a sequence- in a particular order. So define an Infogroup for this purpose
which contains all these infotypes, their order of execution and the user
groups it is applicable for. Then you assign this infogroup to the action
that you had defined. *-- Krish
