Authorization to allow employees to enter time for themselves

Hello gurus,
We included the functionality to allow employees to enter time for themselves in a role that all users have assigned. This worked fine until no long ago. The SU53 report didn't help. It displayed as missing values for P_ORGIN, which was not active from the begining. After more investigation it worked only after we added value 'U' (update) to AUTHC field for P_PCLX, unless timesheet entries are not transfered. Does somebody experienced such a problem before?
Here are the original values when used to work (tcode CAT2):
P_ORGIN = inactive
P_PERNR:
AUTH = *
INFTY = 0000-0002, 0007, 0315, 0316, 2001-2003, 2005-2007, 2010
PSIGN = I
SUBTY =*
P_PCLX:
AUTHC = R
RELID = B2, PC
New values:
P_ORGIN = inactive
P_PERNR:
AUTH = *
INFTY = 0000-0002, 0007, 0315, 0316, 2001-2003, 2005-2007, 2010
PSIGN = I
SUBTY =*
P_PCLX:
AUTHC = R, U
RELID = B2, PC
My concern is that I am not sure what else a user can perform if I'll grant him with value 'U' to AUTHC field for P_PCLX.
Your help will be appreciated.
Thank you,
Gina

Hi Gina
With a U you will grant access to update the HR Cluster tables in area B2 and PC. In order to investigate further check table T52RELID.
Normally this shouldn't be needed for employees to maintain their data i CATS, but perhaps you have activated some customizing, where the data is updated immediately.

Enter time for terminated employees in cats

I am trying to enter time for terminated employees in cats during their active period,but I got "An error occurred on starting the workflow", I checked employee's master data, and standard workflow being triggered ws2000460, everything seems to be fine,any help?

the error I got right after I tried to submit time entry in cats: "An error occurred on starting the workflow", upon the time time sheet is being submitted, std workflow20000460 gets triggered, but this error prevented it from being triggered. so I deleted this employee's termination action, and his active status got extended to 99991231, then I submitted time for him again, no workflow error, everything seemed working. My guess is that termination action can prevent from submitting time in cats. so I hope any time management expert or workflow expert could verfiy my assumption.

Trying to figure out how to enter time for resources that dont have access to PWA

I am fairly new to Project Online and have configured most of my server settings. I have created a project and set the enterprise resources then published the project to PWA. Once there the users with Project lite and project managers can see the
tasks that have been assigned to them and there time sheets also display the tasks. I can't seem to figure a way to enter time in for all the other resources that do not have some sort of subscription. Most of these resources are labor positions and do not
have access to a computer to input their time. This would need to be done daily by the shop supervisor. I didn't know if this was possible or if I would manually need to enter the that data for those resources in the actual work section in project manager.

jngathings,
Unfortunately, Timesheets are limited to 'users' who have a subscription, even for the Shop Supervisor to act as their delegate. So in this case, updating the project schedule directly could be the only option (or using a third-party app, may be).
If you are using only the tasks functionality, then you could set the Shop Supervisor as the default assignment owner to these resources and have the shop supervisor update it in PWA.

How OTL (TimeKeeper Entered Time) AND (Employee Entered Time by his self)

Hi All
I have a question related to OTL Time entered using TimeKeeper (Using TimeKeeper Supervisor) and Time entered by Employees hisself.
For Example ONE Employee time is entered by Time Keeper and the employee is entered time for hisself too.
Entered BY TimeKeeper
Alternate Name = Leave WO Pay-TimeKeeper
Transaction Date = 01-SEP-2008
Pay Element =Sick Leave
Alternate Name Definition = Time Keeper Def
Hours = 2
Entered BY Employee
Alternate Name = Leave WO Pay-Employee
Transaction Date = 01-SEP-2008
Pay Element =Sick Leave
Alternate Name Definition = Employee Def
Hours = 3
How can I find out in Oracle database in tables that time is entered by TimeKeeper or Employees.
Thanks
Discoverer

You didnt get me :)
Let me explain in detail
The two columns that we need to consider are RESOURCE_ID and LAST_UPDATED_BY in HXC_TIME_BUILDING_BLOCKS
1.) Case when supervisor enter time for other employee, the data will be as follows
RESOURCE_ID -> Person id of the employee
LAST_UPDATED_BY -> User id of the supervisor
2.) Case when supervisor enter time for him self, the data will be as follows
RESOURCE_ID -> Person id of the supervisor
LAST_UPDATED_BY -> User id of the supervisor
So you need to compare resource_id and person id for last_update_by to look whether the time is enteretd by supervisor/him self.

CATS - How to enter times of an employee who works for 2 different Org Unit

Hi,
I am able to successfully enter times for an employee and do the approval process (CAT4) and CAT6 and I can see the records getting updated in PA30.
Scenario :
Employee works for 2 different Org Units and should be able to enter his time through Timesheet. Eg: Employee A spends 6 Hours working in Department B1 & 3 Hours in Dept B2.
The Manager of B1 should only be able to approve 6 Hours of Employee A
The Manager of B2 should only be able to approve 6 Hours of Employee A
Can somebody help me out how this can be achieved?
Regards,
Mamta

Hi Sameer,
Thank you for the response. Yes, when I report the times for 2 different org units I would also want the cost for that employee distributed between org units.
I tried your solution-> by entering times in CAT2 for Employee A for 2 different Cost Centers that I created.
For Department B1 --> In CAT2 I entered Cost center C1 : 6 Hours
For Department B2 -->In CAT2 I entered Cost center C2 : 4 Hours
When I go to CAT4 and try to select the employee for approval and search the employee-A Org unit wise he is displayed only in his original Department -> B1 with 10 hours (6+4). What else do you think needs to be done?
Is this anything to be done with Sender Receiver Cost Centers because the cost center C1,C2 that I created for Org Units B1 & B2 respectively are just Cost Centers. I dont know the difference between Costcenter and Sender Costcenter/Receiver Costcenter.
I will try to explain the scenario again in case I was not clear :
u2022Each employee has their home OU. However these employees may be working with multiple OU each day or the week. So potentially, the time sheet may have to be approved by multiple managers.

Mamta

Error when trying to enter time data for hourly employees using CAT2

Hi Experts!
I'm trying to enter time data for an absence type using CAT2 for hourly employees and it's giving me an error saying "for attendance type, function or/and one of the URA is required".
I'm not sure what that means, the system has no functions available. Entering time data for full-time salaried employees is working just fine.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

hI,
Firstly check infotype 0315
In that check sender cost centre
Next chek whether the Attendent / Absende Tyep which you are trying to enter is configured
That meas it should pop up (F4) when u try to enter using CAT2
in the Attnendence /Abence field

My iCloud has been 'upgrading' for the last 12 hrs. That is, after I had pressed 'install after downloading the latest, improved version without entering my password. How do I get back to the window that will allow me to enter my password?

My iPad has been 'upgrading' for the last 12hrs.That is, after I had downloaded the new version of iCloud, and pressed 'Install' without entering my password. It is probably searching for it. How do I go back to the window that will allow me to enter my password. I have tried switching off the device, but each time the 'upgrading' comes on. I have also switched it off and left it on the charger for at least 6 hrs.

I am having issues with adjusting the duration of time for each still frame and transition in imovie 11. Each time that I adjust these times, the app does not accept the change, and automatically enters its own time. Am I doing something wrong?

I am having issues with adjusting the duration of time for each still frame and transition in imovie 11. Each time that I adjust these times, the application does not accept the change, and instead automatically enters its own time. Is there a work around this? Or am I doing something wrong? Please Help!
Thank you,
lagrl

Have you tried turning off automatic transitions ? Choose file - project properties and follow the dialogue box to change duration with a slider. iMovie also doesn't allow a transition to be more than 50% duration of the clip its attached to. In other words if the clip is 4 seconds the transition cannot be more than 2 seconds and remember that relates to the first clip as the following clip (right side) is pulled back to overlay it.
Does this help. Perhaps you already know this ?

Getting an error while activating a planning area "Enter values for planning horizon From and planning horizon To for the storage time profile level"

Dear S&OP community,
I am getting following error while creating a planning ares in a newly installed sandbox. "Enter values for planning horizon From and planning horizon To for the storage time profile level".
This what I did...
1) Created new attributes and master data objects and activated them successfully.
2) Time profile created and activated successfully
3) Trying to create planing area by assigning time profile in step 2 and assigned master data from step1..Unable to save the data and system returns
this error - "Enter values for planning horizon From and planning horizon To for the storage time profile level"
My understanding is time profile needs to be active but doesn't have to have values...
Any help is appreciated.

Reminder app not working correctly, issue started around Sept. 1,2014. Will not allow me to set date and time for a reminder.

Today I noticed an issue with my Reminder app on my IPhone 5s. Using OS 7.1.2. I called Apple, and the tech didn't know what he was doing and just trying different things.The reminder app will not let me set a date and time for reminder. Finally he escalated the call to a senior advisor who was rude, arrogant and unprofessional. He insisted the Reminder App was updated with the new update of IOS September/October 2013. Not true, the issue just started about 5 days ago August 31,2014. Now there is an additional reminder line for reminder entries that I have to use and have to transfer all my reminders manually from the other part of the app. The feature does exist; if I try to set a date and time for the reminder it appears for 1-2 seconds and then disappears.
Has anyone else noticed this issue?

He insisted the Reminder App was updated with the new update of IOS September/October 2013. Not true
Yes, it is true.
iOS 7 was released 18 Sep 2013. At this time, the Reminders app was updated (with most everything else).
the issue just started about 5 days ago August 31,2014.
Your issue just started but the app was not updated 5 days ago.
Now there is an additional reminder line for reminder entries that I have to use
I don’t understand what this means...
Open Reminders, type the reminder, tap the i at the end, turn on Remind me on a day and enter the date/time.

I'm looking for best practice on allowing employees to install apps.

How does your company deal with employees uploading apps on company owned devices? Is there a request process? Can they expense them? What if they use their personal Apple accounts? Do you use an MDM to manage the devices? What are your security concerns? I'm in the process of formulating a policy (large multi national corp.) and am looking for some best practices.
Thanks

I think the main consideration is that you a multi-national organization, presumably widely distributed geographically. Local management via Configurator or USB IPCU really don't make sense over the long term. An MDM is designed for situations such as you describe. For licensing reasons,each iPad used by a different individual must have a unique Apple ID. One individual could use the same Apple ID on multiple devices he or she controls. Individual devices used by multiple individuals can also have a single Apple ID. In our environment, we typically ask each user to setup an individual Apple ID when they receive their device. They are allowed to download and pay for whatever personal apps they choose. Apps which would be used for Business purposes must be vetted by Security to ensure they protect organization data. Business apps can be deployed via the Apple VPP using our MDM, which is AirWatch. An MDM is included with Lion Server. You could look at this to get some ideas about what it does and how it does it. Airwatch offers a free trial. Some users of this forum have had experience with Meraki. That is another choice. You should also look at the Enterprise Deployment Guide
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Enterprise_Deployment_guide.pdf
and the VPP
http://www.apple.com/business/vpp/
Frankly, though it isn't completely applicable to your situation, the Education deployment guide has a great deal of good information
http://images.apple.com/education/docs/IOS_5_Education_Deployment_Guide.pdf
Hope this helps a bit.

How to populate date & time when user enter data for custom table in sm30

Can anyone tell me How to populate system date & time when user enter data for custom table in sm30..
Req is
i have custom table and using sm30 user can enter data.
after saving date i want to update date & time in table
Pls let me know where to write the code?
Thanks in Advance

You have to write the code in EVENT 01 in SE54 transaction. Go to SE54, enter your Ztable name and in the menu 'Environment-->Events'. Press 'ENTER' to go past the popup message. In the next screen, click on 'New Entries'. In the first column, enter 01 and in the next column give some name for your routine(say UPDATE_USER_DATE_TIME). Then click on the souce code icon that appears in blue at the end of the row. In the code, you need logic like below.
FORM update_user_date_time.
DATA: f_index LIKE sy-tabix.
DATA: BEGIN OF l_total.
          INCLUDE STRUCTURE zztable.
INCLUDE STRUCTURE vimtbflags.
DATA END OF l_total.
DATA: s_record TYPE zztable.
LOOP AT total INTO l_total.
    IF l_total-vim_action = aendern OR
       l_total-vim_action = neuer_eintrag.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING l_total TO s_record.
      s_record-zz_user = sy-uname.
      s_record-zz_date = sy-datum.
      s_record-zz_time = sy-uzeit.
      READ TABLE extract WITH KEY l_total.
      IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
        f_index = sy-tabix.
      ELSE.
        CLEAR f_index.
      ENDIF.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING s_record TO l_total.
      MODIFY total FROM l_total.
      CHECK f_index GT 0.
      MODIFY extract INDEX f_index FROM l_total.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
ENDFORM.                    " UPDATE_USER_DATE_TIME
Here ZZTABLE is the Z table and ZZ_USER, ZZ_DATE, and ZZ_TIME are the fields that are updated.

I like to watch tvcatchup or sky go or I player on my iPad while falling asleep, the problem is that the iPad then stays on all night. I would like to find an app that allows me to set a timer for the iPad to switch itself off automatically.

Does such an app exist? Can anyone help me? Thanks

You can try the Sleep Timer.
