ESS/MSS: Approve Leave Request in UWL - not working

Hi to all,
we are using web dynpro ESS/ MSS (SAPESS07_12/ SAPMSS07_4) in portal NW04s for mySAP ERP2005 and are using UWL in order to approve leave requests. If employees are creating leave requests, everything works fine. After that the manager opens the leave request in UWL, the web dynpro application is openening succesfully and after some clicks he reaches the buttons to approve or reject the leave request. But by pushing one of them the following messages occures :
<b>Workitem 000000000000 Cannot be read</b>
After pushing the button again, another message comes up:
<b>No Customizing for status typ ARQ, Status approved...</b>
By the way, the same errors also come up when the employee wants to delete his leave request which is not approved.
Any ideas, what can be the reason?
Regards,
Frank

Hi Ashutosh,
I have found the reason. The user <b>WF - Batch</b> in sap erp, which is using the RFC Destination for workflow, was locked. Well, it is a a little bit strange for a cummunication user that he becomes locked. Unlocked him, now all works.
Thanks for your support.

Frank

  • Error while approving Leave request from UWL

    Hi Experts,
    We are getting following error while manager clicks on Universal Worklist to approve Leave Request. On system we have assigned ess id to employee no. 43 in IT 105-0001 but it gives error message about employee no. 167 which has nothing to do with this leave request.

    Hi Ashish,
    Short text of the error message:
    "No data exists in this period for infotype 0105 and employee 00000167
    This clearly suggests that the employee data is not up to date.
    Go to Tcode : PC00_M40_CLSTR
    here 40 is the country coding or the Molga value for India. Like wise which ever country you work for, enter the country code there instead of 40.
    Enter the pernr as 00000167 and you would find till which date the payroll for 167 has been run successfully.It has to be in green color.
    If the payroll is not run till the period in which you are getting the error ( which obvisouly is what the error means) try running the payroll by going to the Tcode : PC00_M40_CALC or you can ask your HR team to run this payroll for you and you are good to go.
    Good Luck!

  • ESS Leave Request in UWL not launching

    Hello,
    We are trying to configure ESS\MSS, and currently stuck at the step of Leave Request\UWL configuration. 
    u2022     We have configured UWL with the backend system (WebFlow Connector).  We can register the system successfully.
    u2022     In IMG, we have set the u201CProcess Request Using Workflow: u201C: 12300111
    Once a user fills out a leave request, We see the following in the UWL ([SEE IMAGE|http://www11.speedyshare.com/files/21590441/download/LeaveRequest.jpg])?  We do not see any option to launch WebDynpro? And why does the item text states u201CGeneral Workflow for Documentsu201D instead of u201CLeave Requestu201D?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Hello,
    I donu2019t see any items in the Tasks tab, the way Iu2019m testing is on the u201CTracking" Tab of the person that have made the Leave Request.  When I click on the item in UWL, it does not open up any Web Dynpro.  I've checked the Tasks in TCode SWFVISU, and WDynpro Java is defined.

  • ESS Auto Approval Leave Request

    Goodday all,
    I'. trying to create a WF which will have a step tp auto approve a leave request after 5 days of submission to the approver. I have made a copy of the standard WF12300011 and have included 'modeled deadline monitoring' step just before 'request approved?' step. This is where i'm stuck, once teh deadline is obsolete, i will need to create a new step to automatically change the REQ.STATUS to 'Posted' OR 'Approved'. How do i do this step? or is there a better way to do things? Thanks in advance
    Regards

    Try Like this
    1. As you said that you hvae a copy of the standard workflow so when the Modeled Deadline monitoring is reached any ways a outcome will be included in the WF template , so what you can do is in that outcome you include a Activity which uses the method of conatiner element REQ  which will have the current request instance
    REQ type is cl_pt_req_wf_attribs so in this class you hvae a method with name APPROVE so use this mehtod in the Activity that you will create in the modeled deadline monitoring outcome. this will approve the request and when ever the report RPTARQPOST is executeed the approved request will be posted into the respective infotypes.
    If you hvae any more queries plz let me know, because i also had the same issue and i fixed that in the above mentioned way.

  • UWL Filter causing error while approving Leave Request

    Hi Guys,
    We recently applied MSS SP17 and we changed our UWL filter BADI to SWK1 Function group - SWK_LOCAL_INBOX_GET.
    The filter works fine, but when we try to approve leave request, it somehow calls this piece of code again and does not allow (DUMPS) BADI to set the filter saying - this field is not modifiable.
    Has anybody seen this before. Can anybody let me know how to resolve the issue?
    Regards,
    SC

    We added a code that if leave request calls this code...skip it.

    Dear Swarnaprakash,
    Hope you are doing good.
    Do make sure that all ESS related applications/services are running.
    Please try to restart the applications this way:
    1. start the telnet admin tool
       telnet <hostname> 5<instnum>08
    2. logon using the J2EE Admnistrator user
    3. lsc (to list the available servernodes)
    4. jump <servernode> (usually jump 0)
    5. add deploy
    6. start_app -all
    Please have a look at the below for more information:

  • Configure ESS/MSS Approval Email Alert

    Dear Gurus,
    I'll using the ESS/MSS module for request a leave and claim.Can we do the configuration in SAP,if the requestor fill the application leave using SAP then send it,after that the Manager get the email alert from Outlook to approve the leave using SAP system.And also if rejected the requestor also get an email alert.See below;
    1) Is there a way to send or inform the approver  that their  have to approve the leave via email like outlook.
    2) And to inform the requestor that their leave is rejected via email using Outlook.
    Many thanks
    /Shah

    Hi Shahril,
    Your requirement can be very well handled in the system.
    Please follow the given steps:
    1) Go through the SPRO node documentation for all the nodes under:
    Personnel Management->Employee Self-Service->Service-Specific Settings->Working Time->Leave Request->Processing Processes
    2) Copy the std. workflow 12300111 to a custom one and insert the Send Mail activity in the workflow wherever required i.e., Send Mail to approver for approval intimation and Send Mail to leave requestor for Rejection intimation
    3) Use the above custom workflow in the node:
    Personnel Management->Employee Self-Service->Service-Specific Settings->Working Time->Leave Request->Processing Processes->Specify Processing Processes for Types of Leave
    Picture will be clearer to you once you go through the config node documentation as suggested above.
    Also, you will need a workflow consultant to do the required changes in the workflow.
    Hope this helps.

  • Issue in Deletion of approved leave request using ws12300111

    We are using Std workflow 12300111 and its working fine for new leave request and change leave request but when raise request for deletion of approved leave request the workitem created and info type  updated automatically without seeking approval from manager. When you check the workflow log the agent determination happend and updated the info type 2001.  This issue is in production system , At the same time if we tested the same scenario in QAS its working fine, ie its asking approval from Manager.
    Pl help on this issue.
    Regards,
    Muthu

    This is correct and intended functionality, NO WF IS triggered.
    Let me explain, There is no WF triggered when APPROVED (NOT POSTED)
    absence is deleted. This is standard, You can trigger a mail
    which You had already done so. But there will be no WF triggered.
    So if you notice
    when the leave request is in status POSTED, it calls the workflow,
    but if the leave request is not POSTED yet, it is doesnt call the
    workflow.
    There is no standard Workflow triggered when the Approved leave request
    has been deleted by the employee!
    This step should be configured by the customers as when to trigger a
    mail to the Admin or Supervisor, when deletion or cancellation happens.
    The workflow template is a simple template, You can modify
    to suit their needs.

  • Multiple Approval Leave Request in Fiori

    Hello,
    Do we have multiple approval Leave request in Fiori and how do we enable it.
    In EHP7 portal we have multiple approval and Fiori app should be in synch with the same. However, I could not find any option to enable the multi-level approval for leave request in Fiori.
    Regards,
    Divya

    Hi Divya,
    Are you talking about, multiple levels of approval in approve leave requests app in Fiori.
    This totally depends on the workflow template you are using. If the workflow you use in your portal handles multiple approval, your approve leave request should allow the same too. Make sure you are getting the workitems in your sap inbox.
    Let us know if this is not what you are asking for.

    The last update failed on
    my window 7 home prermium pc, resulting in me having to try it manually download and install,
    this also failed leaving my I tunes not working, I tried restore back to a
    safer date, but every time it tried to update it failed. eventually it told me
    to delete and reinstall, this fails due to the apple mobile device service
    failing to start, and asking me if I have sufficient privileges to start system
    service, I have tried all suggestions on iTunes page, ie delete everything to
    do with apple, and start as administrator, nothing works, help please

    I too have tried the latest iTunes (12.1.1.4) in Win7. I did a search for latent drivers as you noted but found none. I am glad it worked for you - I'm still no-joy at this point. I'm able to install AMDS over and over again, without issue - it just doesn't start then iTunes launch fails with Error 7. I have to manually remove it.
    I am able to connect my iPhone via USB cable and access my photo storage on the phone. I am just not able to install iTunes anymore. I have attempted resolution to this issue for almost two months now. Until that time, I was content with what was installed. It was only when the proverbial update box appeared that I attempted to 'update' my iTunes. WHAT A MISTAKE putting blind faith into an Apple request to update. I SUGGEST NOT TO UPDATE YOUR ITUNES IF IT IS RUNNING PROPERLY!
    I realize now, once again I might add, my reliance on software provided by others. It's like anything else, I shouldn't rely on just one method for anything. Time to search for a more pleasant alternative than Apple. Truly, when it worked, it was good at its job, but now that I am wasting time I am looking seriously at upgrading to another type of smartphone and media management software. Way too much trouble for anything as simple as this should be. I wonder, is this a result of another feud with Microsoft?
