Question 1
A global company is standardizing its hiring process. For legal compliance, the 'Ethnic Origin' field in the Personal Data infotype (IT0002) must be mandatory for employees in the US (Country Grouping 10) but hidden for employees in Germany (Country Grouping 01). What is the most efficient and standard way to configure this requirement?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
The standard SAP best practice is to use features to control screen modifications. Feature P0002 is specifically designed for Personal Data (IT0002). By evaluating the MOLGA (Country Grouping) field, it can return a variable key. This key is then used in the screen modification configuration (table T588M) to set the 'Ethnic Origin' field (P0002-RACKY) to 'Required' for the US key and 'Hide' for the German key. This is the most efficient and maintainable solution.
