Can we approve working time in UWL without MSS web appl?
Hello Friends,
I have a doubt thats bugging me for the past one week, I have a requirement where an employee enters working time through portal and the manager should approve through the portal.
I have configured ESS and also the backend, thus when an employee enters his working time and releases , a workitem is created in the managers inbox at the backend.
I am using the approval reports RCATSB01 for approving working time in the backend.
I am planning to do the UWL config so that managers can access workitems through portal, <b>Can i use this approval report to approve working time in UWL or is it mandatory to use "Approve working Time" web application from MSS</b>.
Regards
Sriram
Hello Ashutosh,
I have given the visualization parameters for task TS31000007

PACKAGE : sap.com/msscatapproval in SWFVISU
Then followed the UWL config guide and did minimal configration
Created a sytem in system landscape (alias UWL_SYSTEM) and registered in UWL
registered all item types for the system.
Now i can able to see the workitems in the UWL but when i click on the work item Approve working time i get an error

SriramHi all,
I have maintained the CATS_APPR_PROF parameter in my login ID. and in backend i have used the workflow TS31000006. Time administrator(radiobutton selected), with approval procedure(radiobutton selected), checkbox checked (with sap business workflow) as well as checkbox checked (with auto determination of recipient).
I am applying the overtime from ESS screen. I am able to record, able to release also. i run the CATS tcode in backend i shows my pending overtime approvals, but it is not showing in UWL. I haven't selected the approver in this process as it didn't asked me anywhere. So whose UWL should i check?. wht am i missing??????? -
Workitems not showing up in UWL of Subsitute for approve working time
Hi All,
We have ECC 6.0, EP 7.0, ESS and MSS BP 1.0 and we have the following requirement.
We are using approve working time functionality to approve deviations for Employees.The approval is done in single step i.e by immediate Line manager .
The Workflow task used in the CATS profile is TS20000460.
The problem is that we cannot receive the substituted Manager's workitems in the substitute's UWL; we can also see the filters which allows us to filter off the workitems for "My Items" and "Items on Behalf Of.....".
Can anyone help me out with what needs to be done . Is there some customizing settings needed or some other workflow task which i need to use.
Thanks a lot,
ManishHi siddarth
Thanks for the reply ..
I understand the point and had already tried doing the Substitution from the UWL itself.But the problem is that after doing the sunstituion and making it active we are still not able to recieve the workitems in the substitute's UWL.
Cud this be problem with the Workflow task . If yes please let me know if there is one which i can use or if there is something to be done with the settings and activation of the UWL's .

Hi.
We have just implemented Web Dynpro ABAP based Approve Working Time application (Collective Approval iView) replacing the Java based version.
A manager complains that now he has to go into each and every of his employees recordings to check their daily recording while he in the old Java based version could see everything in one view when he clicked the 'Review' button. Off course this is a setback in usability.
To my question:
Is there any way we can offer the same functionality in the ABAP version so that a manager with a single click can see all daily recordings by his employees?
We are running ECC 6 EhP6 and NW 7.31 SP11.
I appreciate all responses. Thanks in advance.
Thanks and regards
Søren BessermannHi Samuli.
Thank you for quick reply!
I am in doubt though, is MSS add-on an ECC component or a portal component?

Hi
We are on EP7 with ECC6.0 as backend.
We are trying to use the Approve Working Time iview in MSS but it gives the following error:
Critical Error
A critical error has occured. Processing of the service had to be terminated. Unsaved data has been lost.
Please contact your system administrator.
The ASSERT condition was violated., error key: RFC_ERROR_SYSTEM_FAILURE
We have maintained the following customizing in backend(
1.Define Approval view: SAP_LINE ( SAP Approval by Line Manager)
2.Define Field Selection for Individual Approval view: SLIN1 and with it Field customizing Field label
Personnel Number , Attendance or Absence Type,Text for Attendance or Absence Type, WorkBreakdown Structure Element, Receiver Order etc.
3. Define Field Selection for Detail View: Attendance, Counter etc
4.Define Profiles and Assign to Views: SAP_Line: Initial View=SAP_Line.
5. Create Rule Groups: SAP Standard( 01)
6 Adjust Webmo feature: Time Sheet Application..assigned rule group: SAP Standard(01)
The Approver is a Manager with A012 relationship with a particular org unit.
Kindly suggest where may lie the problem.....we have a requirement of Collective Approval of Working Times of his subordinates by the Manager.
I would like to add here that we are able to approve Working time requests individually through UWL...but we need to use the Approve Working Time Iview.Hi
We are using the standard taskTS20000460. But we want to use the Approve Working Time service iview.
When we were using the evaluation path for approving the working time data through A012( Chief) in MSS, we were able to see all the working times recorded by the subordinates of the said Chief( Manager) in the service Approve Working Time itself, we did not necessarily have go to UWL and approve from there....Now after we have made the required changes in the evaluation path and made A002 as the approver, the same iview Approve Working Time has a message that "No date exists that needs to be approved'.
At the same time we are able to view and approve the working time data from UWL of A002.
Is there a change that needs to be done in the service to get it working ? or it this because of some other reason.
Please advise. -

Error analysis
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_PROGRAM_NOT_FOUND', was not
caught in
procedure "BUILD_TABLE_STRUCTURE" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a
RAISING clause.
Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
The reason for the exception is:
On account of a branch in the program
(CALL FUNCTION/DIALOG, external PERFORM, SUBMIT)
or a transaction call, another ABAP/4 program
is to be loaded, namely " ".
However, program " " does not exist in the library.
Possible reasons:
a) Wrong program name specified in an external PERFORM or
SUBMIT or, when defining a new transaction, a new
dialog module or a new function module.
b) Transport error

MSS: Approve working times
Dear experts,
a user runs a MSS transaction "Approve working times" but he receives the message: "No data exists that needs to be approved".
The user who runs this transaction is holder of chief position in the organizational plan and one position reports to him.
If the same user runs the transaction "cats_appr_lite" in SAP R/3, records to be approved are displayed.
The MSS user uses the profile "SAP Approval by Line Manager".
Why there are no data displayed in MSS transaction?
Thank you in advance,
Vana SountaWhat about this situation? Manager 1 would like Manager 2 to approve the working time of his staff while away from the office. We setup a substitution in the UWL of Manager 1 to give time approval tasks to Manager 2. Manager 2 receives the tasks as expected. When executing the task (Approve working time) however, the employees from Manager 1 do not appear in the list. I would expect that Manager 2 should see and have the ability to approve the time.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated on this type of substitution.
Best regards,

Hello,
I want to implement "Time Sheet approval" in MSS and I read that it is available as a webdynpro application under the Workset "Team" which should have certain service links in the navigation panel one of which is "Approve Working Times" but the thing is that I do see various overview iviews under the workset but I don't see the service links...how can I get that working ....also how do I configure Time Approval using standard workflow.
Thanks in advance.Disregard that previous post....I was thinking of another part of MSS that is part of HF still (sorry, working on HF stuff today...haha). now...back to your problem....
In the standard MSS role, you should see:
Manager Self Service (role)
+ Reporting BW
+ Reporting CR
+ Reporting IAC
--> Home (workset)
--> Manager Self Service (workset)
+ Overview (folder)
+ Work Overview (workset)
+ Team (workset)
>Team (webdynpro proxy page)
> Employee information (folder)
> Employee Working Times (folder)
+++ Approve Time Sheet Data
>Performance Mgmt (folder)
>Compensation Mgmt (folder)
etc.
Are you SURE you copied all of this over and have that folder structure? Also, if you open the TEAM (webdynpro proxy page) object (go to it via the delta-link tracer in the role, then select the item in the tracer and pick "show in catalog" to find it and open it).....from the "Display" drop down (next to the row of buttons at the top of the edit screen) pick "Dynamic Navigation". This will show you the "Services" iView. This "Services" iview is what shows all those folders (under the TEAM page in the role laout) as items in the detailed navigation panel. The folder is the "subsection" title and the items in the folder are the actual links (like the "Approve Time Sheet Data" one under the Employee Working Times folder. -
Change texts in Approve Working Time
Hi,
In approve working time we have a dropdown wherein we have options like 'Approve' or 'Approve All'. Can we change the texts of these like 'Approve Time for all'there is no customisation available for this, but change in java code is requiired usinhg NWDI
ie
The RFC Function Module called is HRMSS_CAT_WD_APPROVAL. I believe
values for the approval column are either fetched from backend
(FM HRMSS_CAT_WD_APPROVAL) or are coded in webdynpro application

About the approval working time
Hi gurus,
I don't know if it's the correct place to post this.We are using MSS 1.0 and EP 7 .I have a small problem.For the approval working Time we are using task TS20000460 task and we modified it based on the requirement of the client .Now we have discovered that when manager approves the time in MSS , the infotypes are updated automatically which the client does'nt want that to happen.Is the MSS approval will work the same way or it's because of workflow.Is there any setting to be done so that when the manager approves it the update will go into the CATSDB table but not the infotypes.
Reply is needed very urgently on this.

Thanks in advance.Hello,
You need to update the CATSWF transaction not to transfer immediately. Also in the approval profile for the iview SAP_Line uncheck the box to transfer immediate.
Hope this helps and maybe by now you have found your answer.

Call ESS FPM CATS Working time application from non FPM web dynpro application on click of button
Hi,
My requirement is to launch ESS Working time application HRESS_AC_CATS_1 from custom web dynpro application.
ESS CATS working time application is configured in LPD_CUST launchpad.
I tried using method cl_hr_navigation_services=>navigate in my custom web dynpro but it did not work.
Regards,
IbrahimIn case you want to use Launchpad, you can use ABAP class CL_APB_LAUNCHPAD_API. If choose not to use Launchpad, you can use method CONSTRUCT_WD_URL of ABAP class CL_WD_UTILITIES to generate the URL. Specify Web Dynpro application and Web Dynpro Configuration as parameter. Finally create an external window using method CREATE_EXTERNAL_WINDOW that points to that URL.

Dear All
I have a requirement.
When an employee books time in the section "Record Working Time", it goe for approval in "Approve Time sheet data" in MSS under Work Overview>Team>Employee Working Times>Approve Time sheet data.
Now my client needs that it should come in the UWL under the section "Tasks" as it comes in case of a leave request approval.
I just wanted to inform that in the table TCATS in the section "Workflow" we have neither checked "With SAPBusiness Workflow" and nor "With auto determination of recipient".The Task field is empty.
So please help me to know what exactly to do.
Thnks a lotHi
No in SBWP I am not able to see. But all the leave requests that are generated can be seen.
This is the case for both the approver and the person who requests the leave.
But no such aaproval of work time is visible in sbwp
Please give me a solution -
HR Securtity Issue with CATS_APPR_LITE - Approve Working Times and query
hi Gurus
here is the our issue :
1. User need access to do timekeep as well as query . In order to process the time keep task one of the transaction used in the process is CATS_APPR_LITE which requires P_ABAP in the role or by transaction ( Se93 added P_abap object) .
From the query side role this should not have P_ABAP since giving access to this will have access to sensitive data even though the roles are restricted by Personal area or structural authorisation.
If both roles are assigned to users then P_ABAP from the timekeep role will overwrite the query roles and users get access to data for which they should not see .
We have created dual sign on to avoid this task but is there a better way that users can do this task by just single id.
any suggestionsHello,
CATS_APPR_LITE is meant for Time Approval
CATS_DA is meant for Display Working Times.
Can you ellaborate more if this does not solve your inquiry?
Thanks.
