HR Programming involves data extraction and manipulation from these infotypes and clusters using LDB/MACRO and function modules. Infotypes mirror a quantity of connected data records; infotypes are identifiable through a four character numerical string [e.g. infotype Addresses (0006)] . You can save the infotypes as time-dependent to enable a retroactive evaluation of Employee data.

ABAP is used for customization and modification of SAP applications.

Also, you really need to understand the infotype time constraint concept since the data organization in HR is Employee-Time based, When you cannot get the information that you need out of the logical DB look at the function modules...
