Attendance/Absence type sort order on portal timesheet

Hi,
I'm quite new to ESS/MSS, so I'm not sure how this can be accomplished...
In the Working Time iview, the timesheet appears. The column for the Att/Abs type has a dropdown button, and when you select it, it shows the text of the att/abs, and at the end has the code in parentheses.
Ex: Regular Time (P0001)
The list appears to sorted by the att/abs description, but we want it to be sorted by the att/abs code instead...
Can this be done.
Thanks.

May be you want to look at this FM HRXSS_CAT_WD_RECORD and try to enhance it or use CATS user exits

CATS0002 CATS: Supplement recorded data
CATS0003 CATS: Validate recorded data

Attendance/Absence Text not available in CATS_APPR_LITE layout

In the display layout of CATS_APPR_LITE the attendance/absence type description is not available for display. Is there a way to display the attendance/absence type description in the layout?

SAP suggested the following
you can fairly easily include the desired textual descriptions in the
report list by using the BADI CATS_REPORTING. In order to include the
fields the following needs to be done:
a) a new field zzawart_text needs to be appended to the structures
CATSXT_COMP_DETAIL and CATSDB_ALV
b) In the BADI Method BEFORE_DISPLAY_APPR
the function module CATS_HR_ABSENCE_ATTEND_TEXT needs to be
called for every record that has the AWART field filled
the result of the function call is moved into the new field
zzawart_text.

Deactivate absence type in CATS screen

Hi,
I have to hide one absence type in CATS ESS portal screen.
I have configured the absence type in this path,
Cross-Application Components -> Time Sheet ->Specfic Settings for CATS regular -> Select Allowed Absence Types.
But i am still able to see the absence type in CAT2 screen. Does this really work in ESS portal screen.
We don't have any testing portal to check this.
Kindly suggest me on this.
Thanks,
puspita

could be a cache issue, have your portal admin clear the portal cache and check again it should work. If you are on ehp5, the cache is on the backend app server... a basis guy should be able to help you in that regard.

URGENT Help Pls - Absence type to be considered as Attendance in Time Eval

Hello Experts,
There is one specific absence type which has to be reported as absence in IT2001.
This abs type is something an EE works outside of office and need to be tracked as absence. And when the EE has scheduled to go out for work on this absence, there is an absence request form and approval process. Everything is in place.
But, since the EE is performing work on this absence, this absence type needs to be considered as attendance in Time Eval so that number of hrs work in a day gets added up. Plus, we have specific OT rules, it EE works more than 8 hrs and less than 10hrs in a day, he get 1.5 time rate in OT. And if he works more than 10hrs, he gets double OT. But if he works less than or equal to 40 hrs in the same week, he does not get OT.
Due to this complex OT calculation, the above absence type needs to be added or considered as regular working hrs so that the EE get OT accordingly.
Please reply me VERY URGENTLY. Somenone with helpful answer and/or suggession will be awarded points.
Thanks in advance

Hi Subodh,
Would you please send me those PCR's, i have a similar situation but with time, if he starts before 6am gets double time and after 6am he gets 1.5 times for overtime.

Query result list sort order in the Service Manager Portal (2012).

Hi there,
I have a setup a user prompt for a request offering in which the values are based on a query results list. When the user prompt is displayed in the portal the order of the items presented based on my query results list is in reverse
alphabetical order (Z to A) instead of traditional A to Z. I can clicked the column header to toggle the sort order, however having to do this is slightly annoying.
My query results list is based on returning the Department field of a specific criteria of template AD user accounts (which are imported into the CMDB via the AD Connector).
Where and how is the sort order defined?
Thanks
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
After a quick test I can see the query results is in a descending order based on the first display column of the query results configuration. In the Request offering wizard I don't see an option for sorting. I don't think it is possible to configure this
out of the box.
But maybe it is possible from a Self Service Portal rendering point of view. Maybe there is a key for it in the settings.xml just like the maximum of query results:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/servicemanager/archive/2011/11/08/advanced-query-results-customization-for-request-offerings.aspx
If this is possible I'm also curious to know how! :)

Project Server 2010 TimeSheet line classification sorting order- Issue

Hi,
We have PS 2010 SP-2 environment , and having few time sheet custom line classifications in order to sort them I have prefixed my custom time-sheet line with numbers like 100, 110, 115 and it is perfectly sorted in Line Classification settings under server
settings, please see below.
But strangely when a user creates time sheet and click insert new row then "Add an existing task" modal dialogue box shows "Standard" OOTB line classifcation on top and all custom line classifications underneath it.
Please check below
Don't know why it is not considering sorting order defined under "Line Classifications" settings. Same configuartion used to work fine in PS-2007. But dont know why its not working in 2010.
May be some silly configuration I am missing or something serious here, seriously not able to make out why this is happening.
Please let me know, Thanks much !!!
Sachin Vashishth MCTS

Hey Thanks Guillaume,
That's what I want to confirm in context of 2010. Because same configuration used to work in our 2007 environment. So want to confirm its default behavior or I have missed something in configuration.
Any other idea do you have, like putting some java-script code in modal dialogue box to get this sorting done or any other customization.
As of now considering "javascript" but need some pointers to get start working on this.
Thanks much !!!

Add_item : Attributes list collection sort order

Hello:
I created multiple custom attributes and added them to my custom item type. I need to apply these attributes while adding an item programmatically.
1) How do i define the order of the Attributes list via the Portal builder so as to match the corresponding values read from a list/table,etc. ?
2) The ordering arrow buttons in the attribute list of my custom item type does not match the result set from my query. I tried all options of "order by" clause. Here is the query - (componenttype is the name of my custom item type)
select iatts.ID
,atts.caid
     ,atts.DATA_TYPE
     ,atts.CAID
     ,atts.NAME,atts.DISPLAY_NAME
     ,iatts.ITEM_TYPE_ID
from wwsbr_item_types itypes
,wwsbr_item_type_attributes iatts
,wwsbr_attributes atts
where --itypes.caid = 133
itypes.name like 'ComponentType'
and itypes.ID = iatts.ITEM_TYPE_ID
and iatts.ATTRIBUTE_ID = atts.ID
--and atts.CAID = 133
order by atts.id
3) I need to expect a certain order of the attribute ids, when bulk collecting into the attributes array, in order to populate the values collection in the same. So, how do I determine the order of the attributes ids ?
4) Is there a better way to do this ?
Thank You.
regards
Ananth

Document Sets are great tools for grouping multiple documents together. However, if every set has exactly one document, it would be better to just upload the file and not place it within a Document Set:
Uploading documents using object model - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ms454491(v=office.14).aspx
Uploading documents using web services -
http://cecildt.blogspot.com/2010/10/upload-documents-to-sharepoint-2010.html
If you have requirements to use Document Sets, keep in mind that this adds a layer of complexity beyond a simple Document Library. Behind the scenes, each Document Set is treated as a separate folder, and although can you query items within it, there might
be extra steps for getting the sort order to ignore the folder structure. Can you try setting the Scope to be "Recursive" and also specify that you are looking only for files and not folders:
<Eq><FieldRef Name='FSObjType'/><Value Type='Lookup'>1</Value></Eq></Where>

Request/Service Offering Sort Order Problems

I am having a difficult time finding a way to sort the results of a MP Enumeration List prompt type. The sort order on the portal user prompt is random even though I have arranged them in teh Service Manager console list to be alphabetical. This
does not apply to the prompt the end user sees in the portal. It is not alphabetical. Anyone have any ideas?
The MP Enumeration prompt is mapped to the Service Request Source list. Version is 2012 R2 with update rollup 2 installed on all SCSM servers.

I'm experiencing the same issue, have you found a solution to this?

Any way to Restore Last Manual Sort Order or Prevent from being Overwritten accidentally?

     Help!
     I'm constantly accidentally overwriting painstakingly created manual sort ordering (sometimes hours but more often months of accumulated work) in folders with files numbering up to 1,000, when i, however breifly, switch to another sort ordering (size, date modified etc) to check something, immediately forget that i'm in another sort order, and, unthinkingly (actually i guess i'm thinking of a lot of other things) drag a file to another position, this immediately destroys any past manual sorting i've established, overwriting it with this new inadvertent manual ordering.
     I've tried CommandZ (edit undo) but that only undoes my last rating or labeling, i've rushed to force quit Bridge through the activity montior hoping i will catch it before its overwritten, but obviously i am not as fast as a computer, and i don't think this has ever worked.
Is there any way or any script someone has written to formally save a manual sort order? Is there anything i've missed to attempt restoring it? Has anyone, repeatedly foiled by this, written something that would give a warning and require confirmation say for instance, if i tried to drag or move a file while in another sort ordering (this seems like something that should have existed the minute the opportunity was given to create manual organization). Would anyone be willing to?
     Seriously, me forgetting almost every time isn't going to change and, more vexingly, it's even happened when i didn't mean to move anything but fumbled momentarily while in another sort order. I think most people might forget because (in the context of computing) we are conditioned to expect a warning if something we have just created is about to be written over or discarded, and since there is no option to formally save a manual ordering we have just created.
     Also, if this was in the real world, moving a single file would not reshuffle everything on your desk. If i had the option to formally save a manual organization i would NOT forget to do this and would use it, as i've wished for one every time spent a while rearranging files. Knowing how easily all the hours (much less months and years of cumulative work) of organizational work can be accidentally lost makes working within Bridge unpleasantly anxious.
      I'm literally willing to do anything including installing some sketchy 3rd-part scripts (though honestly i have no idea what that means or how to do it). I extentively use and rely heavily upon this function so this is a fairly serious Achille's heel. It's like watching your incredibly important meticulously constructed house of cards collapse with a careless but innocent sigh, or like having the equivelent of a not even charming cat dance across your keyboard during a live concert, etc etc....
     Also it is not usually appropriate, given the context, to batch rename everything to preserve a manual ordering w sequence numbers, etc. Often the filenames are considerably (but necessarily, to connote important differences) long already, and when i have to rearrange things in the future would have to do that each time, etc, etc, making for even more unwieldly filenames that didn't have any substantive information at the beginning. I'm looking for a way to make this function (manual sort ordering), well, more functional, secure and stable, the workarounds i've considered cause too many additonal problems.
     Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to offer, and as this is my first attempt to use the forums as i live on a boat with no regular net access, would appreciate any forum etiquette corrections, and advance apologies for any misspellings, dyslexic and spellcheck does not seem to work in this interface. next time will edit in external wordprocessing program beforehand,

     PS i'm on a 27" mac w CS4 Design Premium, w up to the minute OS (10.6.8) and Adobe software updates installed recently (i do not often move the monster but this week was housesitting w net access, so she has had all recommended shots and vaccinations....)
     PPS I know most of y'all might be running the newest and the latest of everything, but, i'm fairly certain this is still a problem in recent versions as this has happened to me at school where all the macs are running cs5. Though if it's been addressed somehow in cs6 would update entire suite just to fix this one problem in Bridge. I've tried many searches and found nothing relevant or wouldn't bother the considerable expertise and resources of an official forum, was extremely hesitant to ask (feared getting snapped at for unwittingly broaching forum etiquette) but it is truly the bane of my considerable Bridge existence, so was willing to risk the imaginary censure and opprobrium....

That is a good question, to do this requires two functions and a restart of Bridge all done automagically
Copy and paste the script into ExtendScript Toolkit
This gets installed with Photoshop and can be found:-
PC: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Utilities
MAC: <hard drive>/Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities
Start Bridge
PC: Edit - Preferences - Startup Scripts
Mac: Adobe Bridge menu - Preferences - Startup Scripts
At the bottom click the "Reveal Button" this will open the folder where the script should be saved.
Close and restart Bridge.
Accept the new script.
To use:
Tools - Backup Manual Sort
This will backup the hidden manual sort file .BridgeSort to .BridgeSortSave
Tools - Restore Manual Sort
This will copy the .BridgeSortSave back to .BridgeSort and will close and restart Bridge so that the manual sort is restored.
if( BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge" ) {
var backUpManSort = new MenuElement( "command","Backup Manual Sort", "at the end of Tools" , "backupms" );
var RestoreManSort = new MenuElement( "command","Restore Manual Sort", "at the end of Tools" , "restorems" );
backUpManSort.onSelect = function () {
var fileSort = new File(app.document.presentationPath +"/.BridgeSort");
var fileSave = new File(app.document.presentationPath +"/.BridgeSortSave");
if(fileSave.exists) fileSave.remove();
fileSort.copy(fileSave);
fileSave.hidden=true;
RestoreManSort.onSelect = function () {
var fileSort = new File(app.document.presentationPath +"/.BridgeSort");
var fileSave = new File(app.document.presentationPath +"/.BridgeSortSave");
if(!fileSave.exists){
alert("No backup file exists");
return;
app.document.sorts = [{ type:"string",name:"document-kind", reverse:false }];
if(fileSort.exists) fileSort.remove();
fileSave.copy(fileSort);
fileSort.hidden=true;
app.document.chooseMenuItem("mondo/command/new");
app.documents[0].close();
app.document.sorts = [{ name:"user",type:"date", reverse:false }];
Hope this works for you.

Sort order in list wrong: in CAML and in view

Hello,
When I order my list with document sets by ID, the order is wrong. It is wrong in the list and with caml.
This is my view (I just set the sort on the ID column):
The first 4 objects are created by the Client Object Model; the last 4 are created by a SharePoint webpart that I developped myself...
My code for creating document sets in COM is something like this:
ListItemCreationInformation newItemInfo = new ListItemCreationInformation
UnderlyingObjectType = FileSystemObjectType.Folder,
LeafName = _strLeafname // = date in format YYYYMMDDhhmmss
ListItem newListItem = myList.AddItem(newItemInfo);
newListItem["ContentTypeId"] = targetDocumentSetContentType.Id.ToString();
newListItem["Title"] = title;
newListItem.Update();
clientContext.Load(myList);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
The code in the webpart is this:
SPContentType docsetCt = myLst.ContentTypes[p.GetFromResourcefile("xxxxxxxxxxxxxx")];
Hashtable properties = new Hashtable
{"DocumentSetDescription", ""},
{"Title", txtTitle.Text}
SPFolder parentFolder = myLst.RootFolder;
int newId = GetLastId(myLst) + 1;
DocumentSet ds = DocumentSet.Create(parentFolder, newId.ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture), docsetCt.Id, properties, true);
ds.Item["Title"] = title
ds.Item.Update();
why is the sort order wrong?
if i do this query in the U2U Caml builder, the order is also wrong
<OrderBy><FieldRef Name='ID' Ascending='FALSE' /></OrderBy>
if i order by "created", the order is also wrong....
i don't get it....

List of found events changes sort order when pasted from clipboard

when I find a set of events in iCal, the list appears in the window at the bottom of the page in the correct sort order when sorted by date, title or type. When I then copy that list to the clipboard and paste it into another program (Pages, MacJournal, TextEdit) the sort order changes.
I work mostly in English, but my macbookpro keyboard is German, so I assume the problem is with the language settings. I've tried changing the system preferences for language and sort order, and that changes the sort order, but it doesn't get it right.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
