SAP Infotype

A personal number is used in SAP to identify employee data and is comprised of up to eight digits. Infotypes group related employee data fields and have start and end dates to define information validity. Infotypes are coded by category like personal administration or time management. Time constraints ensure required data is available and define if overlapping records are allowed. Infotypes have constraints that determine if one or multiple valid records can exist simultaneously. Personal development involves identifying employee qualifications, determining job requirements, and managing performance and succession planning.
