and . They allow two modes of operation:This mode configures the driver to set validity dates in the same manner employed by all other previous versions of the driver. The driver sets the current date for the validity begin field (BEGDA) and sets the maximum SAP date for the validity end field (ENDDA).
This mode configures the driver to not set any BEGDA and ENDDA field values. When these values are not set, the default validity dating scheme of the SAP server is used to set these two field values. Standard SAP configuration sets the BEGDA value to the date that the Employee record was created and sets the ENDDA value to the maximum SAP date value.
