Recently we had a requirement of creating the organizational unit hierarchy using Webdynpro abap .  While navigating through SDN i found this post and  Amy King has clearly articulated the way org unit hierarchy can be build in Webdynpro keeping in mind the way SAP has built using the search help HRBAS00OBJID2 . I followed the post and it worked wonders !!

But it can lead to performance problem due to deep org unit hierarchy as the search help or Function module RH_STRUC_GET basically gets list of the all org unit at one execution and builds the hierarchy.

In this blog I am going to discuss ( steps for Webdynpro abap are not detailed out ) on how alternatively we can use of table ui element and create a org unit hierarchy without using function module RH_STRUC_GET . The code constructs a tree like structure and only when the leaf is opened it fetches the rest of org unit below the selected org unit.

• Created a Function Module Z_GETORGUNIT with below details

Sample code listed below

DATA it_hrp1001 LIKE hrp1001 OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA : temp_org LIKE hrp1001-sobid .
SELECT * FROM hrp1001 INTO it_hrp1001
                                            WHERE plvar = '01'
                                                 AND otype = 'O'
                                                 AND objid = org_unit
                                                 AND rsign = 'B'
                                                 AND relat = '002'
                                                 AND sclas = 'O'
                                                 AND begda <= begda
                                                 AND endda >= endda.
     org_list-org_id = it_hrp1001-sobid.
     SELECT SINGLE stext FROM hrp1000 INTO tstext WHERE plvar = '01'
                                              AND objid = it_hrp1001-sobid
                                              AND otype = 'O'
                                              AND begda <= begda
                                              AND endda >= endda.
     org_list-org_name = tstext.
     SELECT SINGLE sobid FROM hrp1001 into temp_org WHERE plvar = '01'
                                               AND otype = 'O'
                                               AND objid = it_hrp1001-sobid
                                               AND rsign = 'B'
                                               AND relat = '002'
                                               AND sclas = 'O'
                                               AND begda <= begda
                                               AND endda >= endda.
     IF sy-subrc <> 0.
       org_list-no_sub_orgs = 'X'.
     ENDIF.
     APPEND org_list.
    clear org_list .
ENDSELECT.

• In the webdynpro abap component create node ( as shown below ) , with cardinality 0…n and Selection 0…n

• Insert a table in the view layout with two columns with cell editor as
  • text View
  • A row arrangement with a link to action as the cell editor
  • Mapping details :
    • Table Data Source : Mn_ORG
    • RowArrangement (TreeByNestingTableColumn) CHILDRENLOADED : Mn_ORG-CHILDREN_LOADED (WDY_BOOLEAN)
    • RowArrangement EXPANDED : Mn_ORG-IS_EXPANDED (WDY_BOOLEAN)
    • RowArrangement isLeaf : Mn_ORG-IS_LEAF (WDY_BOOLEAN)
    • RowArrangement , Link to Action , on Events onLoadChildren create action LoadOrgunit
• Details of LoadOrgUnit

  wd_context->set_attribute(

    value = wd_this->table_count

Done , activate and execute the application will render the org unit hierarchy .

Note : Do not customize unless it is required , always tend to use the standard provided by SAP . Comments and feedback are welcome.
