What Is Qualification Block

Explain about qualification block.

A Qualification Block (QB) is a bundling of diverse qualifications for the purpose of assigning them to other objects. Qualification blocks enable you to bundle individual qualifications from diverse qualification groups (with different scales) together and assign them in a block to other objects in order to map qualification and requirements. The qualifications assigned to a qualification block do not inherit the attributes of the qualification block.

- You define qualification blocks in the infotype maintenance transaction (PP01). There you can also assign qualification blocks to one another and create a hierarchy of qualification blocks. You can then assign qualification blocks to persons as qualifications and to positions, jobs and tasks as required.

- You must activate the qualification block in the Set Up Control parameters step with the QUALI QBUSE switch and defined the view for editing Qualification 

Blocks for desired objects in the Define Profile Views IMG step.

- When you assign a person at least one of the qualifications in a qualification block, the system automatically assigns the qualification block to the person. 

In the interest of data consistency, the user is not provided with a function for direct assignment. The attributes include the Percentage of how many of the qualifications in the block are already assigned. This assignment is stored as an external relationship in Infotype 1055. All qualification assigned to the qualification block are displayed as inherited requirements, even though, technically speaking, the only direct assignment created was the assignment of the object (S, P or T) to the qualification block. 
 

Which HR table contains Qualification and Qualification block field?

The employee's qualifications can be read using the BAPI "BAPI_QUALIFIC_GETLIST".

The qualification data is stored in HRP1001 having link between Personnel number and Qualifications. 

Note:

There are few things to keep in mind with this, Firstly you need to check if the Integration switch is turned on for PLOGI - QUALI from 0 A032 to 1 A032 , only if this is on you will find the qualification in the PA table which is PA0024 or else you will find the qualifications sitting in the HRP table HRP1000.
