Help regarding education infotype

Question :

Can anybody tell me how can i relfect the education attainment of an employee, i mean will i input it in the begda endda? if i do that when i generate report using ad-hoc query i should back track the covering date so that i can output his education data but the consequence is even those withdrawn employee will also be outputted.

Answer :

You will need to use IT0001 or IT0000 to determine the status of the employee. The dates are not when the employee took the education, but when it was associated with his data.

IT0022 is the infotype for education records. As Philip says the dates associated with this are the validity dates of the record, not the dates of the education. So typically the start date of the record will be the end date of the education course and the end date of the record is usually 31-12-9999. There aren't fields on IT0022 to indicate the dates of the education course itself. You'd have to use the comments field if this is essential, but then you won't have a way of pulling this out with an ad-hoc
enquiry.

Thanks for the suggestion, i guess i just use one of the field of IT0022 and rename it for the covering date of education attainment.
