Appraisal question

Hi experts!
I found detail questions on appraisal topic were seldome answered.
but here i still try, i wish some one could figure me out. thanks in advance.
the question is about role configuration with transaction oohap_basic.
standard roles could satisfy the need of integration with OM, i.e. to automatically select subordinates from organizational structure. but if i need to customize my own roles, how can i relate these roles with OM module?
Kind Regards,
Echo

HI,
I will try to attempt a solution ,
You can explore a possibilty of any BADI implementation or any enhancement which will allow your custom relationship maintained in OM in the drop down box where you specifiy employee or supervisor .

Appraisal question - mulitple answers of questions in appraisal

hi there,
i have a apprasail form to ask user question in kind of a 'test'.
i am using Appraisal tool from LSO.
I have created my questions, and with radio button the user can select a answer out of 3-5 possible values.
but now i have one problem:
one of the question is a multiple-answer, meaning that there are 2 answers possible from 6 values.
but i only can push ONE radio button per question .
does anybody now how to handle this in appraisal forms ?
reg, Martin

Hi Martin,
As you mentioned, some questions might have more than one possible option. So for example if a question has two possible answers then display the values as a drop down so that it looks neater and add it in two columns. Radio buttons will definately look worse, as I am not aware of the possibility of selecting more than one option from a drop down.

Appraisal period dates

Hello,
Platform: EBS 11.5.10
The PER_APPRAISALS table has APPRAISAL_PERIOD_START_DATE and APPRAISAL_PERIOD_END_DATE. Where do these dates come from? Our appraisal questions are set up in a Competence template.
Alwyn

Hi Alwyn,
PMP (Performance Management Plan) is the key functionality without which you can't initiate an Appraisal because while configuring the Performance Management Plan, you have to attach the Appraisal Template and to provide Appraisal Period and Appraisal effectivity dates and within these dates only you can initiate an Appraisal. Suppose the Appraisal Template is valid from 01-Jan-2013 to 31-Dec-2013 and Appraisal dates are 21-Dec-2013 to 31-Dec-2013. You can initiate an Appraisal between 21-Dec-2013 to 31-Dec-2013 only, not earlier or not later. However..the Administrator has the grant usually to modify the Appraisal dates. Coming to PMP.. i think ..no tables are available as the data in PMS can't be captured as of now. I hope you need a licence for PMS Intelligence module where you have this previlege to capture the data.
Hope this helps.

Siva

Question on Team appraisal

I have a question on the team appraisal. We have unique situation here.
A person ( employee ) from the team needs to maintain the appraisal document for the entire team for monthly result inputs achieved by the team.
So we should only have one appraisal document per manager or org unit. I selected the check box for multiple appraisees ( in phap_catalog_pa -> Appraisal template -> Processing tab ). Is this setting enough to achieve this requirement ?
I need some guidance on this.
Aneez

A member of the team. Manager can nominate this person
An additional idea here: Have the manager use MSS to generate the form. The appraisee he chooses can be the "nominated" person to have input on the form.
You can then definitely use a BADI to automatically add the entire team as "further participants" on generation of the form.
We are debating on this. I am recommending to have a custom relation ship ( say, is proxy between manager's position and employees position). Lets say, if there is no "rule" , what happens?
If you go with the approach I just mentioned you can avoid a custom relationship and additional data maintenance. It also gives flexiblity, if you want to add additional appraisees or change the appraisee it can be done through phap_admin transaction very easily.
This is not the case . We will have one form for the entire year. There will be 12 criteria groups , say january evaluation, Feb evaluation and objectives (criteria ) will created for each. The person maintaining will input the montly result achieved.
One idea here to experiment with, is to create a whole slew of sub-status in the "In Planning" or "In Review" phase. Based on the substatus you can control who gets notified (email notifications to participants), who can edit when (appraisee vs appraiser), and who can see what when (further participants).
For each month you can create a substatus "Jan - Emp Review" --> "Jan - Mgr Approval" --> "Feb - Emp Review" -- > "Feb mgr review" ...... --> End of Year Appraisal "
One question - Most of the standard workflow are either for appraisee / appraiser - what is the scope of further participant in terms of workflow ?
i don't think there is any standard workflow for "further appraisers", but technically it sounds like all you would need is a notification by email. here you don't need email, you can SMTP from program. The BADI can be called anytime the document status has been changed.
good luck, let us know how this solution proceeds!

Question over the appraisal status change

Dear All,
Our appraisal has ( following the flexible template ) has planning, mid year review and final phases. With in each main status we have sub status configured. Example - In the planning stage ( say in the month of February ) , employee add objectives, change weights etc and send to manager for approval. If manager approves, the document status will be changed from planning to mid year status and employee's form is changed to the display mode ( so he cannot update objectives / weight etc)
Then again in the mid year status ( say a few months later - June ist ), the employee needs to review the appraisal, add or update the objectives etc and submit for manager approval.
My issue is - After the employee's appraisal form is changed to display only from planning to review status - How the employee's appraisal form can be changed from a read only to change mode in the same status ? As it is necessary for employee to add/ update in the form.
I am seeking the best approaches for the below as I am considering two options ( as mentioned below )
1) For the mid year status , I will configure a sub status ( called start mid year ) and attach a push button. The employee select the push button during the mid year period ( say June 1st ) and this push button triggers the status change from Mid year to Mid Year / Start Mid year. We also plan to apply a custom implementation for BADI for column access and badi (HRHAP00_COL_ACCESS) will decide the access control for columns etc.
2) The other approach I am considering is we are considering a workflow (INFO_APPRAISEE_CHANGE_REVIEW ) to notify th employee 7 days before the mid year review starts. Can this workflow trigger the status change or read the column access from the BADI (HRHAP00_COL_ACCESS) ?
Any other simpler approaches ?
I saw in the Process config ( tabs and process ) that we can define the phase with dates and status / substatus etc. Can this be useful for the above scenario. For eg. On June 1st when the mid year review start, can the status be changed like from Mid year to Mid Year / Start Mid year ?
Please let me know . Greatly Appreciated!
Aneez Hameed

Hi Aneez, both options are great, HRHAP00_COL_ACCESS is configurable at each sub-status, so you have many options. You can have the manager "approve" at beginning of year, but keep it in "in planning" by having a 3rd sub-status.
You can have the employee or manager have access to the pushbutton so that mid-term can start.
you can also do a workflow option where it is changed automatically, your option 2.
the final option is the HR adminstrator can change the status, by doing a mass select in phap_admin and then they change to the status to move it to "in review" with all of your mid-term substatuses.
they key to making this work is the additional config that goes along with HRHAP00_COL_ACCESS. here you will want to do define a Z table with the following columns:
object id - your template ID
role - which are the same roles values defined at your template - apee for apraisee
template status - integer - represents status ID
template sub-status - ID
column id - FAPP, OBJO, etc..
availability indicator (char) - here you will configure H, X etc... which the badi uses to know how to handle it.

Urgent ----- Appraisal for offline editing functionality Question

HI ESS/MSS Gurus,
Currently my client using MBO Team viewer in Portal for Appraisals. They heard from some persons about offline Appraisals functionality--- Like downloading Adobe form, fill it and upload and they want to implement it. I didn't find any SAP delivered iViews for this functionality. Currently they are in EP Version -7.0, MSS 600 . I need advise of you guys for achieving this functionality .
Kindest Regards
Srinivas Ayyala

Hi Peter,
Glad to be of help! I just had a quick look at the Wondershare web site. It appears that the Windows version has PIP, but not the Mac version. I can't comment on its capabilities as I've never tried it - but I doubt very much that "it had the functionality that supersedes iMovie". iMovie '11 is a very powerful application, with many functions not obvious to the newcomer. A quick look through the Help pages, and other tutorials will reveal its full capabilities.
Regarding split-screen, that is also a feature included in iMovie '11, although somewhat limited. It allows you to have two side-by-side videos playing at once. See the following iMovie Help topic -
http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3a622531
Also, you may like to have a look at the following articles/tutorials -
iLife '11 Video Showcase (scroll down to the iMovie section) -

HAP_DOCUMENT Appraisal. How to autofill cells?

Hi to every one!
First of all I want to thanks to everyone who have been helping me. I've done several of questions about the HAP_DOCUMENT BSP application and I always have an answer that solved my problem or leads me to solve it by my one. So Thank you very very much to all of you.
Now.
What I'm trying to do is to autofill some cells of my template after I press on button I've create and I'm showing at the "In Process" status.
I complete by hand a couple of cells and I need to show some data in another cell calculated from the one complete by hand before.
I'm using a copy of the HRHAP00_VAL_DET_007 implementation to autocomplete some cells in a custom column when I change my status from "In Preparation" to "In Planning" (when the In Planning template shows up I get some values from a table depending on the appraise ID) and its works ok. But it seems that this implementation does not work when I'm "In Process" to complete my cells of another custom column that are only shown in this status.
Does anyone know how can I do this?.
Thank you very much again for all your help.
Nico.-

Hi,
Yes. I think you are very close to the solution.
Just ensure that the import parameter T_BODY_CELLS-NO_VALUE is not marked for that cell. If so the cell would not accept any default values.
May be this can be checked in debugging.
Otherwise i think it should be working fine.

Subbu

How to trigger follow up processing actions in appraisal documents?

Hi gurus,
We are customizing the performance management process using Objective Settings and Appraisals (ECC 6.0; Enh.Pack 4, ESS/MSS with business pack 1.41) and we have customized the evaluation templates (transaction PHAP_CATALOG_PA) with the enhancement "Follow-Up Proc. (Background) - Adjust Qualific. (Start Date)" in Follow-up Processing section of the Processing tab, at template level (VA object).
The system functions is ok, and the cualification appears in the employee profile (transaction PPPM) correctly after the performance management especialist trigger it using the admin report (transaction PHAP_ADMIN_PA).
My question is: Is there anyway to automatically trigger the follow-up processing after the appraisal document is finished? Do we need to develop in ABAP a new implementation of some BADI?
Thanks in advance!

Maurice Hagen wrote:
Followup processes are started as soon as the document goes from status 1-4 to 5 (completed).
Do you mean ALL available follow-up processes should be started as soon as status is set to "competed"?
That's not what happens for our (custom) appraisal: follow-up process(es) are not started when the status becomes "completed", neither from the backend nor the portal. We always have to manually launch the follow-up process from the phap_admin transaction, and select the ones we want to be done.
In phap_catalog, we have a couple of follow-up processes that are selected in the "Processing" tab.
when the approval process is activated (infty 5025) and or status 6,7,8,9 are selected then the follow up process only takes place after status change to close approved.
Even when setting the status to "closed approved", no follow-up process is started.
Any suggestion? Isn't there a setting somewhere that should be set in order for the follow-up prpcesses to be automatically started when the status is set to "completed"?

Training & Event Management - Business event appraisal

Dear all,
Wish you all a very Happy new year.
I hve two questions.
1. For e.g. there is one trainer who has conducted many training program in an org and business event appraisal has been performed where there is criteria to capture instructor information. Then how I can get a report for that trainer only. There is one selection criteria in the report of business event appraisal where I can select the instructor(appraisee) id. But it is not working.
2. When there are more than one instructor in one business event, then how attendee appraisal and business event appraisal are done?
3. In training & event mgt is it possible to perform periodic appraisal?
Thanks,
Have a happy weekend.
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
There is no SAP standard report on Trainer wise attendance history for this purpose you have to define the Adhoc query.
When there are more than one instructor in one business event it is a tough scenario to have attendee appraisal .
In TEM it is possible to have periodic Appraisals.

How to change Font size and alignment in Appraisal document - Font settings

Dear Eperts,
We are working on 360 Appraisal. Can Any body explain how to change the fornt size and allignment (text wrapping to wndow size) in Appraisal document.
Thanks and Regards,
Ajaykumar

Hello Ajaykumar,
if I am not completely mistaking the 360° Appraisal uses the Adobe Forms.
In this case the font can be set in the Adobe Live Cycle Designer by selecting "Palettes" -> "Font".
Here is a discussion which addresses this question, and also contains a link to how to handle Adobe Forms:

Hello Juan,
what you are looking at is standard functionality provided by the WD ABAP ALV table view (which is used by the POWL - of which these are examples) - the user themselves can define their own views of the data (and you can I believe - although I have not yet tried - even define them globally and assign them as defaults).
Have a look at the POWL feeder class used by the appraisal status view - I think that it explicitly enhancable through a BAdI - if not then you could always just enhance the feeder class yourself. I'm not sure that you could include an action link column in the POWL, but you can certainly include a new button at the top of the list - and allow actions to be launched on selecting a row of the table and then clicking that button.
For more details on POWL - have a look at [SAP help doco on POWL|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/46/65c34314e97184e10000000a114a6b/frameset.htm]

How to populate historical data in the appraisal

Hello,
I am working in Oracle PMS module. Our requirement is to display historical data of an employee in the next appraisal cycle.
Eg. If there are 3 appraisal cycle in a year. In the first appraisal manager will add objectives and competencies for an employee. lets say he added competency 1 ,competency 2,Objective 1 and Objective 2. after completion of the first cycle.
When manager initiates the second appraisal. in the objectives block 2 values (Objective 1 and Objective 2) should be auto populated. Same as in competency block 2 values (competency 1 and competency 2) should be auto populated.
Here manager can add more objectives or competencies.
Please suggest how this can be achived.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Shunhui
Answers :-
If the required fields are not available in the Maintenance link, does it mean that I have to goto SE11 and create an append structure for the extract structure MC02M_0ITM which belongs to the datasource 2LIS_02_ITM?
Then I have to write codes in the user exit for transactional datasources in RSAP0001?
Ans : That's correct . Once you have done this on R/3 side, replicate the data source in BW side. Activate the transfer rules with appropriate mapping for 3 new fields and also adjust the update rules so that these 3 new fields are availble in Info providers.
Are you able to provide some information on the errors that might arise during transports with the delta being active in the production system? Will data be corrupted? Will I need to clear the delta queue before the transport goes over?
Ans : I assume that deltas are active in Production system . There is risk to your active delta into BW .
Before your R/3 transports reach Production system , you need to clear the delta queue that means bring the number of LUWs for 2LIS_02_ITM to zero . Also stop the delta collector job in R/3 for Application 02(purchasing). Make sure that there are no postings (transactions /users are locked) so that there will be change in purchsing base tables.
Then send your R/3 transport into Production system (Append structure , new fields + user exit code) .Replicate on BW side. Now send the BW transports to BW production system .
I had done this earlier for 2LIS_12_VCITM and had a step by step proceduew written with me ....will have to search for that document . Let me know your email ID , will try to send it once I find the document

How to configure a pop up message when creating an appraisal?

Hi All,
I have a question.
When the supervisor creates an appraisal for an employee, the supervisor is obligated to create Objectives for the employee but creating Competencies are only optional for executives (people group). When the supervisor has finished creating the appraisal and wants to review it, he will need to click on a Continue button.
When the continue button is pressed, a warning pop up message will appear if the competencies created was null. As it is only a warning pop up message the supervisor can just click ok and continue to the review page.
Now I am needed to configure this pop up message for the appraisal creation page and I would like to know how do I go about in searching for it? Should it be in the OAF java files or is the pop up message can be configured using personalization? I just want to know how to search for the configuration of this pop up message. Thank you
regards,
Ilham

Hi Sheela,
Though you made 'Dataline' field as mandatory, system will throw an error message and will put MOUSE CURSOR on that missing field. So ultimately user would come to know that a particular field is missing.
And in SAP there would be lots of mandatory fields and it's really not feasible to put pop-up messages for such requirements and that too in transactions like CMR.
Tell user that system will automatically put MOUSE CURSOR on a particular mandatory field anytime anybody misses to maintain it. As a SAP consultant, your job is to convince the user with such standard functions.
If at all you want to put pop-up message for it, then you need to go for User Exit development.
Revert back if any further issue.
Regards,
Anup

Technical Link b/w Employee and Appraisal Template

Hi,
Can anybody please help me in finding the technical link b/w an Employee and an Appraisal Template? In other words, I need to know the table name(s) in which data is stored while appraisal processed is going on. I can view the appraisal form in IT0024 and IT0025 in PA. I can also see the objects VA, VB & VC in PP01, but where are these entries stored in the table.
We are on SAP R/3 4.7 (Enterprise) and using new Objective Setting and Appraisal Component.
Thanks
Vikas Bhatia

Hi there,
Function module 'HRHAP_DOCUMENT_GET_LIST' can be used for this purpose.
In order to find the objects you want, make sure you set the appraisal templates for calling this function as well as all of the other required parameters. If you need help for the other parameters then let me know.
The fields for the template table import parameter need to be set as follows:
plvar = Active plan version
otype = VA or VB or VC
objid = appraisal template id
This returns two tables - the appraisals and the associated documents.
Other tables you may be interested in are :
HRHAP_T
HRHAP
HRHAP_APPER
HRHAP_APPEE
Hope this helps you out. Any questions, let me know.
If this works, please award the points for this advice.
Cheers
Colin.
