Thanks, Chamanoh,

I have submitted my papers and am preparing for an interview. What are the expected questions the interviewer may ask me about clusters and PCL1?

I know that clusters are a group of tables used for storage purposes in a storage medium. Could you please provide any broader definitions?

Please post any additional information you have.

Thank you.

Hi,

I am speaking about SAP HR. To delete a personnel number, go to transaction code SE38 (ABAP Editor) -> specify the program RPUDELPN -> click on execute.

Thank you.

There are a lot of internal tables in SAP HR. WPBP (Workplace & Basic Pay), RT (Results table), CRT (Cumulative Results table), BT (Bank transaction table), C0 (Cost distribution), ARRRS (Arrears table), DDNTK (Deductions not taken). Many tables are there like this.

These are all stored in the PCL2 file in IN (Indian Payroll Results) cluster. There are a lot of internal tables like this in payroll.
