Automatic approval of CAT time data

Dear All,
Generally the boss should approve the working times of the employee in CATS. But the issue is that once the employee click on release button, timesheet gets approved automatically. But this approval should be done by supervisor. He was not facing this problem earlier.
I checked the Org Chart, I dint find any error there.
Please guide me which settings shall I check for this?
Regards,
-Tina

Hi,
I need a report to bring CATS Time data changes during a certain month.
Is there any report that does this?
And is there any idoc that is populated with this information and a report to create it?
Or for example a function that returns this information.
Thanks.

MSS Time Approval - Detailed approval view shows time data for different PN

Hi Experts,
We're using the standard MSS time approval without workflow and here're 2 issues we have:
There're multiple time records for multiple employees in MSS for approval.
1. When manager tried to select all the records for one employee and click the "Approve" button in the collective approval screen, then all the records will be approved including records of other employees.
2. When manager click the hours of one record for a certain employee to go to the detailed/individual view, other employee's time data will be displayed in the detailed view window.
Please help!
Thanks,

Hello Kamalbabu,
after Migration of our ess applications from WebDynpro JAVA to Web Dynpro ABAP we have a problem that sounds similar to the one you descriped above.
In POWL the button 'details' (detail view) for leave request approval seem to have no function.
Because your post is a few years old, I guess you solved the problem and hope you can share your solution with us.
You will find more information about our specifc problem in this threat: http://scn.sap.com/message/15482063

UWL CATS time approval error "No data exists that needs to be approved"

Hi all,
We approve CATS working time through SAP portal UWL. The user can see the workitem in her UWL inbox, but got an error u201CNo data exists that needs to be approvedu201D when he tried to execute the workitem. But the user is able to execute the workitem using Business workplace in ECC. We are using the standard UWL application.
This happens only to CATS time entries for certain type of employees (for example, the employees who do not report directly to the approver).
SAP Portal 7.0
SAP MSS 600 SP19
SAP UWLJWF 7.00 sp23
SAP ECC 6.0
Here is what I have found from my trouble-shooting. When I test (preview) the UWL iView, it seems to be working fine. But when I call up the iView from the portal MSS role, I got the error message u201CNo data exists that needs to be approved.u201D
Please let me know if you need more information.
Thank you,
Qi

Eror in automatic time & date setting

Suddenly the automatic time & date function in System Preferences is returning an incorrect time. I am shown in the correct time zone (EDT), but using the automatic setting puts the time ahead by 4 hours. I believe that would be GMT. Cannot figure out why it would do this. I am using an early-2008 MacBook Pro running Mac OS 10.8.2.
Intrerestingly, my iPhone 4S running iOS 6 is showing the correct time.
Anyone else experiencing this, or have any ideas how do return to the correct time?

see if this link helps http://www.apple.com/support/ical/

Set Time & Date Automatically

Hi folks, I ventured into the Time/date settings and have my time zone set to Eastern USA, and checked the set time/date automatically setting. Then I locked that window via the paclock in the lower left.
How often does Snow Leopard ping those servers? What would happen if for whatever reason the time server was not reachable?
What if the LAN I'm on has its own time service?

I found this thread while investigating a solution for the same problem on my one-month-old unibody MBP running 10.5.6. The clock on my MBP and my old G4 iMac have never been in sync because the iMac (forever stuck on Tiger) can set the time automatically using a time server and the MBP cannot.
I keep all of the System Preferences which have lock/unlock capability locked. Once I unlocked the Date & Time preferences and enabled the "automatic" option, re-locking or leaving Date & Time unlocked had no effect. If I quit System Preferences, the "Set date & time automatically" option in the Date & Time pane would be unchecked the next time I opened System Preferences and went into the Date & Time pane.
I tried the new user creation--no admin privileges--and that did not have any effect, so I deleted the non-admin user. On a whim, I created another admin user (my account is an admin). Before logging in as the new admin user, I made sure the "automatic" option was enabled and the Date & Time pane was locked. I think I quit System Preferences at this point, but I am not absolutely certain. I used fast user switching to login as the new admin user, went into the Date & Time preferences pane, and the "automatic" option was checked. I switched between the accounts a couple of times, going in and out of System Preferences in each account and the "automatic" option stayed enabled. I logged out of both accounts and the "automatic" option survived when I logged back into my usual account. The next thing I did was delete the new admin user and restart the computer. When I logged in normally, the "automatic" option was still set.
I have no idea why creating a new admin account would solve the problem and I would be really interested to know if it works for anyone else....

Has anyone with sprint have time/date issues as well as imessage function automatically turning itself off?

has anyone with sprint had time/date issues as well as imessage function automatically turn itself off?

Im having the same problem, I updated my Iphone 4S to 6.1.3, shortly after that my phone had no audio. It was working fine one minute and then stopped. Was listening to music when sound gave out on me. It wont ring, phone just vibrates even after turning off vibration option. I've tried all the options listed and nothing. My phone has never been jailbroken either. If I connect the earphones is works perfectly. On one of my last calls received, phone's ringtone was heard for about 2 seconds before muting and just vibrating. Ringtone sounded perfect, speakers did not sound damaged.
What else could be done? I've read several post regarding this and it seems like Apple has no solution to this yet. Very dissappointed.

Need Help Urgently - Want to Load Time Data Automatically into Oracle HRMS

Hi All,
I am on my 1st Oracle HRMS project and I need urgent help on HOW TO load Time (IN/OUT) Data from a MS Access database which is populated by a Biometric Hand Geometry System.
And we need to do it in real time as the data inserted in the MS Access Database we need to pull that into Oracle HRMS for Payroll purposes.
If somebody can help me in this I'll greatly appreciate that.
Thanks, AGAIN IT IS VERY URGENT
Zee

Zee,
Let's go back to your core requirement "load Time (IN/OUT) Data from a MS Access database which is populated by a Biometric Hand Geometry System".
Questions:
1. Is this time data to be used to pay a person through Oracle Payroll?
2. What legislation (country) is this for?
3. Are you using Oracle Time and Labor (OTL) as the front-end or do you intend to enter the data directly into Oracle Payroll?
See the following OTL documents:
MetaLink Note 369022.1 - How Can Hours Worked Be Imported into OTL From Third Party System?
MetaLink Note 223987.1 - Oracle OTL HXC TimeStore Deposit API
MetaLink Note 283593.1 - Formatting an Exported Timecard Template using Microsoft Excel

Approval of Working Times tasks show in UWL and shouldn't

Our employees use ESS to record their working time and the managers use MSS to approve that time. Occasionally the task Approval of Working Times, along with the sender date, name and a Cats attachment, appears in the managers UWL which makes it look like someone has time to be approved however, we do not go to the UWL to approve time. If this task is clicked on in the UWL a u201CService cannot be reached HTTP 404 u2013 Not foundu201D error is thrown. The send date of this task does correspond with a date when the employee entered time in ESS which the manager approved a few days later in MSS. So it appears that occasionally but not regularly or in any sort of pattern, time workflows to both MSS where the managers approve it and to the UWL where we donu2019t want it and sits there and drives the managers crazy. (Managers do go to the UWL to approve PCRs.) We have checked the workflow log and cannot see a split. How do we prevent the time approval from routing to the UWL?

Hi,
For me it seems that the the workflow should be turned off. There are ways to disable tasks from UWL, etc. (to not show them), but I would definately take a look to the CATS configurations in SPRO (unfortunately I don't remember the exact path, but it should not be too difficult to find). Basically there is place where you define that which workflow task is send to the manager when the employee releases the timesheet. You can perhaps remove this task from the configuration or perhaps there is some checkbox or something where you can turn of the workflow or whatever. Take look to this first. If you have CATS/HR people on your site, they will probably know what I am talking about.
Another perhaps good option could be that you do certain configurations for UWL and then the CATS approval application is opened when the managers click the item in UWL -. but I would first try to prevent the work item to be sent to the workflow at all, if it should not be sent there at the first place.

Same thing happens when i click restart.
No difference when i run it in Safe mode. And it won't let me create a new profile either. Is there anyway else i can extract my bookmarks? This is driving me crazy!

Did the crash reporter send any crash reports? 
You can see the crash reports in this folder:
"C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports"
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
See also [[Firefox crashes when you open it]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. 
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]] 
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" 
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files) 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox 
If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
