    The document discusses renaming or deleting personnel areas and subareas in SAP. It notes that while the text of a personnel area can be changed, historical data like payslips and appraisals will still show the old text. Deleting a personnel area is possible but will impact historical data, so stopping new assignments through user exits or BADI enhancements is preferable. The responses advise that deleting unneeded entries from customizing tables T500P and T001P is safe if a personnel area is obsolete, and that creating a new personnel area avoids impacting historical records.

    Deleting / Renaming personnel areas / subareas Mar 1, 2012 11:37 AM
    Hi Mates,

    Í have a scenario where I have to change the texts of some personnel area / subarea and get rid of ones which
    are obsolete now.

    For the cases where I have to change the text of PA/PSA(code remains the same) :-

    1. Since there is no delemition option, what's the impact on historical data - payslips, appraisal smart forms
    where psa is printed?

    2. Is there any other impact?

    For the case where I have to delete the PA/PSA:-

    1. First of all is it advisable to delete any PA/PSA? What's the impact?


    2. If not advisable, how do I stop users from using it? User exit?

    I have no active employees assigned to this PA/PSA, and only 1 inactive employee tagged to it 2 years back.

    Pls advice / share your experience.

    Thanks
    Allen

    Hello:
    1. Since there is no delemition option, what's the impact on historical data - payslips,
    appraisal smart forms where psa is printed?

    personal area and group text will change at least for PA and PY (payslips, smartforms etc....) I am just
    guessing appraisal works the same
    2. Is there any other impact?

    not that I know of

    1. First of all is it advisable to delete any PA/PSA? What's the impact?

    Ïf you don't use it anymore, impact will be on historical data. you can delete it in T501/T503 that won't have
    impact on historical P0001 records.
    2. If not advisable, how do I stop users from using it? User exit?

    you can use infotype 0001 badi or XPAD and enhance code.
    something as basic as:
    if p0001-persg eq OLD_PA.
    message e000 with blablabla.
    endif.
    of course you can code some more interesting or quality logic!
    I have no active employees assigned to this PA/PSA, and only 1 inactive employee tagged
    to it 2 years back.

    are you still evalutaing payroll for him? or is p0003-ABWD2 filled with a date? cuz if you are still doing payroll
    for this employee (although inactive) you might get an error message there.
    If I was to do it, I would not delete the entry. Rather add logic to perform checking so the users don't assign any
    new employee to this particular PERSG/PERSK.
    Cheers.

    Hi Allen,

    if you delete a personnel area you have to do it from IMG Enterprise structure / definition / human resources
    management /
    personnel areas / Copy, delete, check personnel area
    Only if you delete it this way it will delete all table entries correctly. If the personnel area/subarea is obsolete
    there is no harm to delete it. Tables T500P and T001P are customizing tables so you can remove entries that
    you do not require.
    Hope it helps,

    Kind Regards
    Christine

    Finally didn't delete or rename any PSA, rather created a new one so that history is not impacted.
