We currently use managers desktop within our organisation, however, we would like to add some new reports (e.g.sickness etc) into it - how would i go about doing this?
Thanks, as always

Hi Niel,
Select the Report Folder, right click on that, click the Selected Function, then you can view all the selected Functions under the report, Check the required reports as per your need.

Org unit from managers desktop

Hi All,
I've created a report and it's been attached with the managers desktop.Now when I call this report from managers desktop, I want to read the Organization unit in my report before doing anything. I'm using PNP logical databse.With PCH logical database I could read the org unit but with PNP I can't read until I reach to GET PERNR statement. I can't use PCH logical databse as the requirement is to run the report based on employee number selection within that org unit.
It works fine even with PNP also but the customer wants to have cutomized screen to go back and forth years to see the report and while executing this custom funtionality , it's not picking the correct org unit.So I want to store the org unit the very first time when I'm calling the report and then I'll pass the same stored org unit for further functionality.
If anyone has idea how to grab this org unit , pls let me know. Will award points.
Thanks
Alok

Alok,
That is how I coded the Org.stru logic in my code ( FYI - I used LDB PNP ) ..
SELECT-OPTIONS: pnpobjid FOR PERNR-orgeh NO INTERVALS.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR pnpobjid-LOW . "OUTPUT.
CALL FUNCTION 'RP_PNP_ORGSTRUCTURE'
    EXPORTING
      begda = SY-DATUM
      endda = SY-DATUM
      plvar = '01'
    TABLES
      pobjid = pnpobjid.
Loop at P_obj.
And in HRp1000    OBJID = p_OBJ-LOW
endloop .
Hope this will help !
Good luck !

Hr ps report in manger desktop

hi!
i created a report combining hr ps data not using logical DB.
i am trying to execute the report via manger desktop transaction PPMDT.
the problem is that there is no authorization check done , even though the specific user has authorizations( including structural authorizations).
how can i execute it trough PPMDT and have an authorization check?
regards
yifat

What kind of HR data are you reading? How can you read HR data without reading infotypes?
I guess the question is how do you want to keep the user to only see his organizational unit. There are two options.
1. Code all necessary authorization checks into your program since you are not using LDB.
2. The way that we have set up our MDT Reports is to be called via a custom function module with the following interface:
"----"*"Local interface:
*" IMPORTING
*"     VALUE(ACT_FCODE) LIKE MWBFCDDEF-FCODE
*"     VALUE(ACT_PLVAR) LIKE OBJEC-PLVAR OPTIONAL
*"     VALUE(ACT_OTYPE) LIKE OBJEC-OTYPE OPTIONAL
*"     VALUE(ACT_OBJID) LIKE OBJEC-REALO OPTIONAL
*"     VALUE(ACT_BEGDA) LIKE OBJEC-BEGDA DEFAULT SY-DATUM
*"     VALUE(ACT_ENDDA) LIKE OBJEC-ENDDA DEFAULT SY-DATUM
*" EXPORTING
*"     VALUE(ACT_PROGNAME) LIKE SY-REPID
*"     VALUE(ACT_SCREEN_NO) LIKE SY-DYNNR
*" TABLES
*"      ACT_OBJECTS STRUCTURE HRSOBID OPTIONAL
*" EXCEPTIONS
*"      OTHERS
Once you create the function module it gets set up in MDT config. The table ACT_OBJECTS contains the objects passed in through manager's desktop. It should have all of the relevant PERNRs.
However it is not recommended to rely on this to secure data. You should still code the necessary authorization checks into your code.

Authorization Managers Desktop 0% Staffing Percentage

Hello,
there is the following requirement: In Managers Desktop Supervisors should get no authorizations for employees who hold positions with 0% staffing percentage in his responsibilty area.
Is there anyone who has an idea how to map this?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Daniela

Hi Helen,
Since it is a custom Report, you can check if the contents of the internal table used for output and issue a message after the end-of-selection event.
something like this..
END-OF-SELECTION.
if t_out[] is initial.
write:/ 'No data Selected'.
else.
*Continue with your normal processing
endif.

HR Managers Desktop and JVM

Hi everyone,
I have been asked the question "Does Managers Desktop (MDT) require Sun's Java Virtual Machine in order to run?"
If MDT <i><b>does</b></i> need a JVM to run ?
Can it be one other than Suns version?
Thanks in Advance.
Tony Roundhill.

I believe, JVM is linked to Graphics related stuff . As such we dont have any graphics related stuff in PPMDT.

Discoverer report accessible through Desktop but not through Viewer

Does anyone have a hint for me about this problem: we can use a Discoverer report via Discoverer Desktop, but when we try to access the same report through Discoverer Viewer, we get an error message: the page cannot be found.

It sounds like discoverer viewer may not be correctly configured or the permissions on the database account may not be correct. Can you run any reports through Discoverer viewer as any other user? What version of Discoverer are you running?

Error when running a report in Discoverer Desktop

All -
I run a report in discoverer desktop and got the following warning message: This sheet currently contains no data.
I generated the query by using the sql inspector tool and run the query in the database and, to my surprise, it showed the correct records.
I don't know what is causing this error.
I checked all items (in discoverer administrator) that are used in by report and everything seems to be ok.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Daniel.

Hi,
There could be many reasons for this, what is in the query you are running?. It could be a bug in your version, what version are you using? Does it happen with one workbook or all workbooks? It could be an NLS Language problem, check that the calculation USERENV('LANG') returns the language you are expecting in Discoverer desktop. It could be a problem with the context for your session, are you using an apps mode or database mode EUL?

Report output to desktop as file.

Hi all,
I need to send a standard reports output to desktop as file (text).
how can i do that. if possible give me an example.
Thanks,
Nagaraju.

Hi Nagaraju ,
You can use the FM 'LIST_DOWNLOAD' to download the list.
see the code below .
START-OF-SELECTION.
Write: / 'test1' ,
       / 'Test2'.
CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
   LIST_INDEX                = '0'
   METHOD                    = 'NOCO'
** EXCEPTIONS
**   LIST_DOWNLOAD_ERROR       = 1
**   OTHERS                    = 2
*IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
** MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
**         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
*ENDIF.

RE: Report Writers/Managers

We have started using Crystal Reports for all our reporting requirements in the FORTE applications accessing an Oracle database. For general reporting eg daily, monthly reports etc, we use Crystal INFO. This package uses the Crystal Report engine but also includes a scheduling and distribution component. No more writing report programs in COBOL for us and we do not intent to write any in Forte either!

Adding Report Viewer Webpart through console app Throws UpdatePanel Error

Hi,
    I had created a console application in Visual Studio 2012, to add Report Viewer Webpart into the team site page in sharepoint 2013. I wrote a code to add the Report Viewer webpart into the sharepoint site. I followed some links to successfully
execute the console application to add the Report Viewer webpart.
    After successful execution of the console application, if i navigate to the sharepoint site where i had added the webpart through console application, it throws the following error.
"Cannot unregister UpdatePanel with ID 'ViewerAreaUpdatePanel' since it was not registered with the ScriptManager. This might occur if the UpdatePanel was removed from the control tree and later added again, which is not supported".
    In my console application i didn't use any UpdatePanel. Just add the webpart into the default sitepage in sharepoint. Hope it was in the default page on the sharepoint site.
   I had googled the rootcause for the error, but i end up with all the answers pointing to ScriptManager into the aspx page. But i didn't find the SafeScriptManager .dll file. I followed the steps, in some other sites to create the ScriptManager
dll file, but that .cs project was not in compatible mode with VS 2012/2010.
I had attached the full executing code of the console application.

I can able to create the ReportViewer webpart in the site manually.

Hi Jai,
Did you find a workaround to this issue. I have the exact same issue with SharePoint foundation 2010. I am adding report viewer webpart through HTML5 web page hosted in SharePoint site.

I want to run a report from the desktop

I want to run a report from the desktop using RWRUN60
What all has to be installed on it to make it work
I have 10g client on mine and it works but I can't install that on all the clients
Is there a little install package for this?
Thanks

RWRUN60 is a part of "Oracle From6i Developer Suit". If you want to run report on desktop client than you have to install "Form6i Developer Suit" on every client where report is needed.
I was facing the same issue and it was a difficult job to install "Form6i Developer Suit" on each client. So, I done the followings.
1. Configured Oracle Application Express
2. Created Required Application in Oracle Application Express
3. Installed "Oracle 10g Developer Suit" and configured "PDF Report Services"
4. Now, each user is running the application through URL and I have saved my time of installations.

MDT (Managers Desktop) - Adding a URL link

Hi,
We have a R/3 4.5B system for HR and are using the MDT functionality. Could you please tell if it is feasible to have a link to an URL from the MDT and return to the MDT screen (on clicking the back button of the browser) without having to login again.
Looking forward to your comments.
Many Thanks,
Sudarshan

Hi Sudarsan,
I don't think it feasible to get back into SAP via the BACK button on the browser. But why do you have to log on again? You can have the URL open in a new window and leave the SAP session open.

Skiping initial selection criteria screen of HR report for Manager Desktop

Dear All,
The reports are configured using a custom scenario (Z Scenario) for Manager Desktop and used over the Portal through MSS. I have a requirement where for only one report (named Expired Qualifications) the initial selection criteria screen which comes when accessed through portal needs to be disabled or skipped and directly the transaction S_AHR_61015536 for this report needs to be called.
Please provide the inputs if it can be done and how for one report only.
Regards,
Samir

Dear Sen,
I have checked the thread suggested by you but the report here is not independent transaction integrated using iView. It is a part of Scenario which makes the reports available to the managers. It uses MSS Standard iView "Reports" and "Selection Criteria". Both iViews are in one page as delivered by SAP. The reports iView displays all the reports configured in the scenario for Manager Desktop and Selection Criteria iView is launched first in the portal content area when the report ( "Expired Qualifications") link is clicked from the Reports iView.

Samir
