Best practice on how to handle employees who do not have a last name?

We are a Canadian based company with some International employees. We have recently begun to enter the International employees into the HR module. This has led to some problems for employees from India who do not have both a first name and a last name as many of our downstream systems require both names.
I'm wondering what other companies with International employees have done in this circumstance. Can someone recommend a Best Practice? We want to ensure that whatever we do is not offensive to anyone.
Thanks.

Dear,
Indian names vary from region to region. Sometimes Names also influence by religion and caste. Different languages spoken in India in different regions. This variety makes confusing differences in names and their styles.
Now come to the point, since you are international company, while entering the names of your international employees - i would like to suggest to consider the employees names as mentioned in their passport (If they hold valid passport). In case of non availability of passports consider their bank information or any other available information so that they didnt face any further problems like visa, banking transactions etc etc.
1. Maddepalli Venkata Ramana Rao
In this case Maddepalli will be his surname, Venkata Ramana can be his first name and Rao can be mentioned as Second / last name.
2. Hardev Singh
In this case you didnt find a surname... Singh will be considered as Surname or his ethinic recognition. In this case you can enter Hardev as First name and Singh as last name.
Make some entry fields are optional depending on the situation. Take help of an Indian origin employees help exists in your office.

How to list those employees who do not have a certain pay rate type set up

Hi,
I'm trying to create a report that lists all employees who DO NOT have a certain pay rate role type set up. An employee can have multiple pay rate roles - for example: chargeable miles, non-chargeable miles, subsistence, etc.
I want to identify all those employees who do not have, say, subsistence yet set up.
I joined the employee table to the employee rates table. The employee_role_id=20 is the particular rate role value that I am interested in. I want to only list those employees who do not have rate of role type 20 set up. That way I can go and set one up for these employees. At present, I am using selection criteria where employee_role_id=20. This brings back only those employees that have an employee_role_id of 20 setup. I would like to do the inverse but setting <>20 only screens out those roles with value 20 and displays all of the rest of the pay role values for each employee.
Any help is appreciated.
thx!
Mark

if you are not sure about the linking i suggest to just show all roles associated to all the employees,
group by employee
create true/false formula for the role_ids where ONLY your 20 role is TRUE per employee
then exclude all false - that should give you only the employees that are missing that particular role.

Block the processing of payroll for employees who do not have IT0185 ST01

Hi People.
I have a client requirement that payroll should be processed only for those persons for whom ID number (IT0185-ST01) is available. I am trying to do it for Portugal Payroll.
I activated P0185 function in PE04 for Portugal and created 2 rules:
*ZH01 Verifica existência do IT0185*
*TABLEP0185 Ler campos de tabela*
*" VARGBSUBTY Campo tab.VVVVV ArgV*
*" 01*
*NUM=1 Definir*
*ADDWT&0185 VAR tab.variáveis*
and...
*ZH02 Verifica existência do IT0185 Subtipo 01*
*NUM=& 0185 Definir*
*" NUM?0 Comparação*
*ZERO=&0185 Definir VVVV p/zero*
*" =*
*ERROR Cancel.processamento*
And I put the rules in sequence in the scheme. But the function P0185 doesn't accept rules.
How do I block the processing of payroll for employees who do not have infotype 0185 subtype 01?
Thanks,
Helio Rabello

How to return employees who did not register?

Hi All.
I've tow tables, employees (for data of employees) and emp_comm(emp_no number, comm_date date) for registering coming
emp_no in emp_comm table is a foreign key references to the primary one emp_no in employees.
Now I tried to use this code in a report to return all employees who didn't register between tow dates (using user parameters):
select a.FINANCIAL_NO , a.emp_full_name, b.xdate from
employees a,
(select to_date(:P_FROM,'dd/mm/yyyy') + (level-1) xdate
from dual
connect by level <= to_date(:P_TO,'dd/mm/yyyy')-to_date(:P_FROM,'dd/mm/yyyy')+1
) b
where (A.EMP_NO, b.xdate) not in (select EMP_NO, TO_DATE(COMM_DATE, 'DD/MM/YYYY') from EMP_COMM)
But the previous code returns all the employees not only who not register! Why? and How to solve?
Thank you
Note: I'm using DB 10g, Reports 6i
Out Of Stock

Hello,
in your query
FROM    employees a
      ,(SELECT TO_DATE(:p_from,'dd/mm/yyyy') + (LEVEL - 1) xdate
        FROM    dual
        CONNECT BY LEVEL <= TO_DATE(:p_to,'dd/mm/yyyy') - TO_DATE(:p_from,'dd/mm/yyyy') + 1
        ) b
gives a cartesian product - every employee with every date
Since comm_date matches only a single date in b you get a NOT IN for every other date.
Try
SELECT a.financial_no
      ,a.emp_full_name
FROM    employees a
WHERE a.comm_date NOT BETWEEN TO_DATE(:p_from,'dd/mm/yyyy')
            AND TO_DATE(:p_to,'dd/mm/yyyy')
What do you need b.xdate for in your example?
BTW: Isn't comm_date a date column? TO_DATE on a date column is wrong, it might give you wrong results because it will implicitly converted to TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(comm_date),'dd/mm/yyyy') where the TO_CHAR uses the default date format.

A report that lists all non-exempt employees that do not have a supervisor

HI all,
Please help. This is urgent.
bold "A report that lists all non-exempt employees that do not have a supervisor assigned in R/3." bold
I have already selected non-exempt employees but don't know how to select people who do not have a supervisor" What selection criteria I should choose in the ad-hoc query
Thanks a bunch,
Rashmi

Hi
Actually its not that difficult. You can give a criteria in selection where relationship A002 is equal to a space . Replace A002 in this example with the relatioship you have defined for 'Reports(line) to'.

Best Practices Question: How to send error message to SSHR web page.

Best Practices Question: How to send error message to SSHR web page from custom PL\SQL procedure called by SSHR workflow.
For the Manager Self-Service application we’ve copied various workflows which were modified to meet business needs. Part of this exercise was creating custom PL\SQL Package Procedures that would gather details on the WF using them on custom notification sent by the WF.
What I’m looking for is if/when the PL\SQL procedure errors, how does one send an failure message back and display it on the SS Page?
Writing information into a log or table at the database level works for trouble-shooting, but we’re looking for something that will provide the end-user with an intelligent message that the workflow has failed.
Thanks ahead of time for your responses.
Rich

We have implemented the same kind of requirement long back.
We have defined our PL/SQL procedures with two OUT parameters
1) Result Type (S:Success, E:Error)
2) Result Message
In the PL/SQL procedure we always use below construct when we want to raise any message
hr_utility.set_message(APPL_NO, 'FND_MESSAGE_NAME');
hr_utility.raise_error;
In Exception block we write below( in successful case we just set the p_result_flag := 'S';)
EXCEPTION
WHEN APP_EXCEPTION.APPLICATION_EXCEPTION THEN
p_result_flag := 'E';
p_result_message := hr_utility.get_message;
WHEN OTHERS THEN
p_result_flag := 'E';
p_result_message := hr_utility.get_message;
fnd_message.set_name('PER','FFU10_GENERAL_ORACLE_ERROR');
fnd_message.set_token('2',substr(sqlerrm,1,200));
fnd_msg_pub.add;
p_result_message := fnd_msg_pub.get_detail;
After executing the PL/SQL in java
We have written some thing similar to
orclStmt.execute();
OAExceptionUtils.checkErrors (txn);
String resultFlag = orclStmt.getString(provide the resultflag bind no);
if ("E".equalsIgnoreCase(resultFlag)){
String resultMessage = orclStmt.getString(provide the resultMessage bind no);
orclStmt.close();
throw new OAException(resultMessage, OAException.ERROR);
It safely shows the message to the user with all the data in the page.
We have been using this construct for a long time for all our projects. They are all working as expected.

Peddi.

Best practices on how to implement logging in custom application

In the Enterprise Manager it is possible to display/browse the content of different log files generated by the application server modules.
I have some custom web applications which currently use the log4j framework to write to log files. Is it possible to make these log files accesible for the Enterprise Manager ?
Or what is the best practice on how to implement logging in custom applications which can be browsed in the Enterprise Manager (I do not want to use system.out)

I thought that this could be done. An ex- colleague did this - but he didn't tell me how to solve this.
But as it just took 10 minutes to solve this I believe it's fairly easy.

Okay, I left off a lot of important information...
I'm using two tables
TWDATA
EVENT
From TWDATA I'm pulling the fields TWDATA.OrderNumber and TWDATA.DisbursementDate
From EVENT I'm pulling the fields EVENT.EventCode and EVENT.CompletedDate
The two tables are linked by OrderNumber.

i am new to numbers and invoices and i wnat to know how i can email an invoice from numbers to a person who do not have an apple computer or number program? is this possible and how please? thanks a lot in advance

print to a pdf and email the pdf to the client.
You can print to pdf from any application by selecting the menu item "File > Print..."
then click the "PDF" button in the botton left corner.
I recommend using the "Save as PDF..." item from the list so you can save the pdf with a meaningful name then attach that file to an email.

List of users who do not have USER GROUP.

Hi friends,
I want to find out the list of users who do not have USER GROUP.
Can any one please let me know how to find out.
Thanks,
Ankitha

Hi,
use the transaction "suim" or the abap report "RSUSR002"
-> user information system
open tree -> user -> users by compley.... -> exec. users by complex...
next screen -> Group for authorization -> select multiple selection (right symb.) -> in the tab 'single vals' -> click on the left symb. -> select '='
leave the fields blank. -> 'F8' or ok. -> then in the main screen 'F8' or run.
so you will get all users without a group asignment
I hope it was helpfully.
best regards
Cahit

My MBP will not lot start up. It chimes on but will not load up the OS. Any Ideas on how to reboot, btw i do not have the OS Disc.

The System DVDs that originally came w/your MBP has the troubleshooting tools. Suggest that you find them.
Do you have any 3rd party utility DVDs? If so, they may work. DW would be your best choice. Does wonders.
You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those - http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/intlstoreroutingpage.html Another resource: International Support Phone #s.

goodnight. as you know apple has evolved considerably until today but there are people who do not have ability to buy new products. in my case I would like to know why the apple do not let the iphone 3g update to iOS 4.3 as are several applications that can not put on my iphone 3g due to this reason. Why does not Apple make a repository with applications for ios 4.2.1? or else do not work in an update to ios 4.3 on iphone 3g?

This has nothing to do with Apple, as Apple does not make the apps.
This is the decision of the app maker.
Contact those app makers and ask them why they do this.
