Part appraiser process in OSA

in the part appraiser process in OSA,
1. is employee allowed to chose the part appraisers or the part appraisers are selected by the system (using BADI Default Appraiser HRHAP00_DOC_DEF_D1)
2. is it mandatory for the part appraiser to complete the part-appraiser process step before the final appraiser can appraise?
can final appraiser appraise without the part appraiser's input?
3. if multiple part-appraiser exist, will the employee see multiple part-appraiser columns (one for each part appraiser)?
4. can i have a part-appraiser process without the standard part-appraiser column (i.e. the part appraiser uses the final appraiser column)?
thanks.

1. Is employee allowed to chose the part appraisers or the part appraisers are selected by the system (using BADI Default Appraiser HRHAP00_DOC_DEF_D1)?
A: As Cheta says, the employee can not select or modify the appraisers assigned in the preparation process. The BADI HRHAP00_DOC_DEF_D1 is usefull is you want to implement a customer logic to select part appraisers. The system deliver an implementation assigning by defaul the appraiser and appraisee as part appraisers too, but to select this implementation is optional.
2. Is it mandatory for the part appraiser to complete the part-appraiser process step before the final appraiser can appraise?
can final appraiser appraise without the part appraiser's input?
A: In the standard or proposed process, the part appraiser doesn't need to complete the part appraisal before the final appraisal. And the final appraisal itself can be completed even if the part appraisals has not been completed yet.
3. If multiple part-appraiser exist, will the employee see multiple part-appraiser columns (one for each part appraiser)?
A: The employee can or can not see all the part-appraisals columns (PAPP), you can customize this behavior in the "Column Access" tab at template level (VA object). You can make customizations too in the "Element Access" tab at criteria (VC object) or criteria group (VB object) level.
4. Can I have a part-appraiser process without the standard part-appraiser column (i.e. the part appraiser uses the final appraiser column)?
A: You can customize the "Multiple appraisers allowed" behavior in the "Processing" tab at template (VA Object) level. All the appraisers you assign using this option, will be allowed to modify the FAPP column. But this is not a "part appraisals" process, because the system can not mantain the information about what person make what value change.
I hope this can help you.
Best regards,
Alejandro.

Part Appraiser Column in R/3 - not visible

Hello,
I'm facing trouble in getting the Part Appraiser column in OSA document within R/3. I've configured Appr. template with FAPP column with access to change for the Part Appraiser. Also the elements - Objectives are given individual access to the Part Apprsr.
I'm suspecting if there is an authorization issue here. I'm using SAP_ALL access for testing purposes and still cant view the details in the Appraisal Document.
Can you give me some direction on this please.
I thank you.
Regards,
Sandeep

Ok, this is the scenario.
Part appraiser is the manager itself. It's basically been setup to achieve the mid year review. So its the same manager doing the Mid/Yearly review.
Now, when Mgr logs in, he is able to maintain the weightages and Final Appraisal columns. Mgr login is not able to see Part appraiser columns in editable.
We are on ECC6.
Thanks Sameer for looking into this.

Part appraiser in flexible PMS

Dear All,
Need your expert advise on flexible PMS process. We are implementing flexible PMS in EHP4 for a client. There is a requirement to send appraisal document to part appraiser after self review is done. We have defined status sub status as per this requirement. However part appraisal process is starting before self appraisal process in system. How to change and send part apparaisal docuemnt first to appraisee and then to part appraiser.

Dear Sivani
Before the start of review phase, after mangager submits ratings & comments if he wants to add a new Part appraiser (Reviewer) - configure a new button which on selection the workflow goes to the HR / Appraisal administrator.
HR / Appraisal administrator should read the comments of Appraiser to add an additional Part appraiser (reviewer) * they should do the same in the backend using PHAP_ADMIN transaction. They can manually add them in edit mode of the particular appraisal document. Later, on submission by them the appraisal dicument should proceed to the review Phase.
This method is an workaround as their is no add option to appear in the appraisal document either by means of a BADI or by any development.
Note:- If you are using part appraisals then in 'In Proces' (final) phase - the first substatus or review should be done by Part Appraisers. Then onlt the status flow & Radio buttons will behave / appear correctly.

OSA - Part Appraisal Column Contents not saved

Hi All:
We are implementing OSA in ERP 2005. We have implemented the header access BADI, that lets the employee change the part appraiser during the appraisal process. But when the part appraiser is changed, all the comments entered in the notes by the previous part appraiser is deleted.
We would like to retain the notes entered by the previous part appraisers ( just like how it works fine for "Appraisers").
Can we add additional code in the header access BADI to save the notes column and not delete and add a new one.
Or is there an OSS note. I looked in the market place could not find one.
Thanks
Iliana

Hello Iliana,
This is not possible. The reason for it is following. An appraiser is assigned to a document, a part appraiser is assigned to a part appraisal column with an unique part appraisal ID.
If you replace the part appraiser we perform 2 actions, delete the old part appraiser. Here his notes are deleted. And create a new part appraisal column with a new ID for the new part appraiser.
We would not have a possibility to display the old notes on the document even if we did not delete them.

OSA - How does the system determine a part appraiser

I have copied a standard SAP template to create a performance feedback template. I have one employee in an org structure that is the chief of an org unit. I then have a subordinate org unit that reports to the higher org unit. I have an employee in this org unit. I have created two user ids and assigned each employee to one of the user ids. When I create the appraisal using phap_create_pa, I can create the objectives for the form with the chief. When I start the appraisal process, it kicks me out. When I go back in with phap_change_pa and am logged on as the employee (part appraiser), I cannot do anything since every column is greyed out, even though the status of the appraisal doc is in "in process, part appraisal". What am I missing? I guess I don't know why this part apparaiser is not working. Any help will be appreciated

Here are a few things I can think of:
1. In the template under the status flow tab ensure that 'person authorised' has the entry part appraiser
2. Check if the workflow event entered for the previous step is not a display event, but an approval event.
Hope it helps.
Also, can you please tell me which r/3 version you are using.

PMS OSA - Part appraisal at any state

Hi Experts,
One of our requirement is to get feedback from part appraisers at any stage of the appraisal process i.e., 'In Planning', 'In Review' and 'In Process' states. However, as per help, i read that feedback from Part Appraisers can only be obtained when the appraisal form in state 'In Process'. This is one of our key requirement. How can we achieve this?
Appreciate your inputs on this.
Thanks
Karthik

HI Anupama,
Please ensure that you are accessing the part appraiser document, only for the Part Appraiser document the Part Appraiser ID adn roles are shown.
Be dafault Phap_admin_pa only shows the main appraisal document. In order to view the part appraisal documnet, add the part appraisers in the selection screen besides the part appraisrs and then execute, the output will give u all part documents and appraisal document type should be "part document".
Thanks & Regards,

How to mass copy old rating and weightage to new appraisal documents in OSA

Hello experts,
As a part of annual appraisal process, we have incorporated some new logics in terms of rating calculation and elements in the same templates. But those logics are not being copied in already triggered documents whose goals/objects are approved by manager during mid year.
Now we are planning to trigger new documents for all those employees, but can any one suggest how to copy those approved goals and objectives in new documents? As my client doesnot want to go through the goal setting process again .
Please suggest if any BADI or ABAP program we can use for the same.
Regards
Tandrima

implement a fix enhancement (HRHAP00_ENHANCE_FIX) to add the old approved elements to the new document. And tehn have value determinations (HRHAP00_VAL_DET) to fill these added elements with the correct content.

Max number of part appraiser allowed for a 360d appraisal

Hi, experts,
i am trying to implement a 360 degree appraisal using OSA framework(part appraisal).
according to F1 help:
If you have selected only the Part Appraiser (PAPP) and/or Importance
Part Appraisal (PWGT) columns in an appraisal template, this is a 360°
appraisal, and the SAP system does not restrict the number of part
appraisers allowed.
in my template, only have PAPP column , but the maximun number of part appraisers allowed is still set to 18. what's wrong? it should be no limit.
i tried to create a document(using phap_create_pa) , the 18 limitation stop me to add more part appraiser.
i am so confused, does that mean we can not have a REAL 360 appraisal without limitation for part appraiser?
thanks and best regards.
Jun

hi,
i traced into the program, in funciton module
HRHAP_0DOC_MAX_NO_PART_APPER
it's quite clear, there is no special logic for 360 appraisal , the formula is always set to :
no_of_part_appraisers = ( c_column_max_number - l_total_columns )
DIV l_part_columns.
so i think it's not possible to use OSA to depict an REAL 360 appraisal without maximum appraiser limitation.
the maxi number is (18 -1) / 1 = 17
which is really a pitty...

Part Appraiser Functionality in SAP Objective Settings & Appraisals

Hi All,
I have specific requirement where, at the time of Annual Appraisal when Employee submits his/her final rating, Appraisal Form should be routed towards Part Appraiser, if the same has been selected in the form. If part appraiser is selected for all Appraisal Forms, then adding a new SubStatus (Part Appraisal in Process) under Status (Annual Appraisal) would have made sense. But in case where addition of part appraiser in appraisal template is dynamic, how should we achieve this kind of scenario?
Thanks a Lot!

Hi Sameer,
Pls share with us if you know more details

Part Appraisal column in appraisal document

Hi,
   In a template we have one appraise , one appraiser and one role as part appraiser...
In R/3 that part appraiser column is coming in the editable mode.. but in standard BSP itself that part appraisal column is coming in the display mode always//
is there any solution for this..?
i need that column in editable mode..

If in R/3 its coming in editable mode and only in BSP Page (HAP_DOCUMENT) its coming in Non-editabl emode, then I will ask you to check the Implementation for the BADI "HRHAP00_ACC_HEADER"....
Note -
1) The filter name (Filter created for the Implementation of the BADI) is assigned in the Appraisal Template as follow..
    Transaction PHAP_CATALOG -> Select the Template -> Processing Tab -> Further Template Behaviour -> Enhancement Area
    name = "Header Access",
2) Inside this implemetation (hope you will find one in the step1, they case code with the UI_MODE, which differntiates BSP and R3

Performance Appraisal - Processing of rejected document

Hello
If part appraisers are utilized for an appraisal form and the appraisal is rejected, can the appraisal be directed to a specific part appraiser? If so, how can this be setup. If not, how does it work from a process stand point.
Please advice. Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
This can be achieved.
Try the following way. Assume that the part appraiser sequnce is 1->2->3 and then final appraiser. If the rejection has happened, then the appraisal document has to be available to say Part appraiser 3.
For this u need to create a new rule in Tcode PFAC. Just clone any of the standard rule from OOHAP_BASIC and create a rule and code in the Z function module as per your requirement.
Now after doing this add the new custom rule to OOHAP_BASIC.
Also add the rule to the category group, category and template in PHAP_CATALOG.
Then in the flow logic of the template, after the complete button is pressed, make sure the person authorized is the new rule which u have created.
Hope this helps you.

Subbu.

Performance Appraisal-Move the document from Part Appraiser to Appraiser

Hello
After the 2nd level manager (part appraiser) has rejected the document, it should be sent back to the 1st level manager review the notes and make changes before resending it back to the 2nd level manager.
When the second level manager receives the document, it is in "IN PROCESS-PART APPRAISAL IN PROCESS" status. Is it possible to change the status of the document from this status to "IN REVIEW" or some other status for the first level manager to make changes based on the 2nd level manager's feedback.
How else can we incorporate the functionality? Please advice.
Many thanks in advance.

Hello
We were able to achieve this by adding multiple substatus to the status "In Process" and then control the authorization at that level.
Thanks

Issues with part appraiser

Hi,
I am using part appraisers during " In Planning " and "in Process" status. The process is working absolutely fine when the document is in "in process". However, when the document is in planning status it does not come into part appraiser's queue. I am unable to see the appraisal document under both ESS or MSS.
I have maintained the owner of the substatus as Part appraiser and using PAPP column for part appraisal. When the status is in process and substatus Part appraiser in process the document is available under ESS.
I have the following questions :
1. Why is the document not avaiable for part appraiser when it is in planning?
2. When document is in Process the part appraiser can view the document in ESS. Why not in MSS?
3. there is a button called setstatus in process status. But this button is not available during In planning or any other sub status. Whats the significance of this ?
Looking forward for your answers.
Regards,
Priya

Hi F S,
