CATT Record Working Times ESS

Hi everyone,
What I need to know is if there is any possibility to add by customizing without any development new fields in the Record Working Times Table. The fields I want are from(hours) / to (hours) for each work day in the weekly view, like it is displayed in the SAP GUI transactions. The hours are available in the daily view and also in the SAP GUI for the weekly view, so I hope its just customizing but I would like to know if anyone has done this as we need our employees to enter time in and time out. Any help as soon as possible will be greatly rewarded...

In the old ITS transaction CATW you cloud display the hours in the weekly view, but the window got so wide that you lost overview. A lot of customers did complain about that. Therefore SAP developed the weekly overview and the daily detailed view, which is a lot better that the old ITS CATW.
Our time-people raised the question, but SAP did reply that it is not possible to show hours in the weekly view, and they has no intension of developing this function.

  • Custom Search help in Record Working Time

    Hi,
    We have a requirement to add a custom field on RECORD Working Time ( ESS). This field has been added and custom search help is assigned to the data element of the field. The values in the F4 help should vary based on employees department.
    The related code for this requirement is written in the serach help exit. The F4 help is working as expected from backend ( ECC) but not in Portal (ESS).
    I have added the custom field in TCATS_SHLP_ITS. After maintaining this table all the values in F4 help are displaying , whereas it should only display the values under employees department in Record Working time.
    I understand the class cl_xss_cat_value_help_general is responsible for the search help in ESS is there any user exit or enhancement available for this class in order to control the serach values on ESS.
    Thanks in advance.
    regards,
    Pradeep

    note that search help of CAT2 and record working time are different!
    these are teh steps
    please modify the following in the table TCATS_SHLP_ITS as follows:
              1. Execute the T-Code SM31
              2. Enter the table name TCATS_SHLP_ITS.
    or check the class
    CL_XSS_CAT_VALUE_HELP_GENERAL
    or check
    CL_XSS_CAT_VALUE_HELP*
    take an example from Sap note 914125

  • ESS - add a new column to Record Working Time table

    Hello all,
    My client would like to add a column to the Record Working Time table in ESS. They would like to add a column for Activity Name next to Activity Number. Can anyone tell me where this can be congured? Or would this be something I would need to hard-code in the ess~cat source code?
    Thanks,
    -Kevin

    I have figured out the 2 step process needed for this, involving Modifiable and Influencing. So I am able to add new fields. The only issue I am running into now appears to be dependant on the field name.
    I can add CATSD-VORNR
    But I cant add CATSDB-LTXA1
    I have tried a few variations and it seems i can add fields from CATSD but not from CATSDB?
    Has anyone else seen this or know what steps must be taken to display CATSDB-LTXA1?
    Thanks,
    -Kevin

  • Time Constraints on ESS - Record Working Time and Leave Request

    Hi All,
    I have configured Time Constraints and their reaction in V_T554Y.
    When I record the appropriate combination of Attendances and Absences in back-end, I can see the reactions as specified... However, when I try to do the same in ESS - Recording Working Time and Leave Request, I do not see that Time Constraints taking effect on the front end.
    Here is what I have done:
    I have two attendance - P001 and P002. P001 is configured to be recorded on Leave Request where as P002 is configured to be recorded via Record Working Time (CATS) link.
    I record the attendance P001 in Leave Request and also post that into infotypes. After this, I try to record P002 in the Record Working Time Screen and I still get errors (Errors are from: HRTIM00REC E/207 and LR E/335)
    If I try to replicate the same in the back-end in IT20002, then there is no issues.
    Can anyone help and let me know how we can implement the same Time constraints reactions on the front-end and the back-end.
    Thanks a bunch
    - Harshal

    Note that Time constraints are not valid for Leave request and Working time ie in ESS
    it only comes via PA30
    in CATS too, we dont follow much HR related collisions checks these are taken into consideration during CAT6
    and in leave request via Rptarqpost
    so its not gonna work, Its intended and correct! go for a user exit cats0003 or check cac1 profile customisation

  • ESS Timesheet - Record Working Time application partialy in german

    I initially deployed the ESS BP and the Time Entry -> Record Working Time application was comming completely in english.
    Then I changed the JCO references of ess/cat DC to some other backend, still the app was english.
    When I changed the JCO reference back again this time the Record Working Time application was half in german langauge.Text on tab strip, all buttons are in german.
    I even changed ProjectProperties.wdproperties property masterLanguage="en", earlier this was masterLanguage="de"
    Still half the app is in german. I even deployed the standard ess/cat DC again still no luck.
    How do I make it english back and what is the reason for random behavior?
    Regards,

    Make sure you have no language set up with Jco connection
    it should be blank!
    Normally no language should be maintained for the above mentioned JCO's
    If you have maintained any language for the JCO's ,kindly put it
    blank.

  • ESS & MSS - CATS regular/Record Working Time (Web Dynpro)

    Hello,
    SAP Library help (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/ef/e18d3f7057eb0ce10000000a114084/frameset.htm) says the following:
    Compared with CATS classic, the following constraints exist for this Web application:
    Since CATS regular is an Employee Self-Service application, time administrators or data entry personnel cannot recording working time data.
    Is there any workaround to solve it? I mean, we need to recording working time data centrally through ESS or MSS. That's possible? Any enhacement for that? No matter where to do it (ESS or MSS).
    Thanks!
    Miguel Angel.

    Hi Jigar,
    That's almost exactly the requirement we need to implement!
    Basically we need:
    a. The employees with computer will record their own working times via ESS
    b. For the employees without computer, their working times will be recorded via MSS by:
    1. their org unit superior OR
    2. someone like a time administrator defined in a custom list containing "employees for the time administrator".
    I mean, someone called "time administrator" will record working time for a determined numbers of employees, but this "time administrator" is not the org unit superior. It's possible?? This is the mostly case.
    Other requirements:
    - Default time sheets and target hours for employees (for each employee the corresponding time sheet and target hours)
    Thanks!!
    Miguel Angel.

  • "Record Working Time" application in ESS

    I fill the number of hours per day for all the days in a week against an Att./Abs. type in the "record Working Time" webdynpro application in ESS, review the entries and save the entries.
    When i come back to check the entries for the same week, it creates multiple rows with the same Att./Abs. type and fills the number hours per day accordingly, which results in a matrix display of entries.

    Sridhar,
    Thanks for your response.
    I have executed the transaction CAT2 in ECC and it was working fine. If there could be a problem with Data entry profile or CAT2 program how would it work fine in the back-end.
    I guess there goes something wrong with the WD application.

  • Record working time in ESS window collapsed

    Dear all,
    after we implemented EHP6 in our environment we have a strange issue with the Record working time window in ESS portal.
    When a user log in to the portal and go the Record working time the record working time window initial state is collapsed. He need to expand the window manually (see the screenshot).
    Does anyone of you have / had same issue? Are you aware of any SAP notes we can consider to solve the issue?
    Everything is standard , nothing customized.
    Thank you

    This is because end users do personalization in that page. In this case when they logon next time always it will display the based on his personalization in previous logon.
    You can clear all personalization's for users in System Administration tab
    Clear all personalization for users from System Administration in portal.

  • Record Working Time on ESS and IT2002

    Hello,
    I'm trying to configure Record Working Time on ESS.
    I input some attendance "hours" and I obtain the message "your data has been saved" on the "Overview of your newly recorded working times"
    When I come back on ECC6, there is nothing in IT2002...
    For information :
    Tcode : CAC1
    Data Entry Profile : Without approval procedure
    Is there something more to do?
    Thanks

    HI,
    You supply Human Resources (HR) with absence and attendance data and
    data on employee remuneration and substitutions by transferring data
    records from the time sheet or an external time recording system. The
    transferred data is then available for further processing in Time
    Management and Payroll. You transfer the data records using the transfer
    report RPTEXTPT.
    Report RPTEXTPT transfers data from the interface tables PTEX2000,
    PTEX2010, PTEX2003GEN, and PTEX2003SPEC to the corresponding infotypes:
    Attendances/Absences (2001/2002), Employee Remuneration Info (2010), and
    Substitutions (2003).
    To ensure that HR is always supplied with current time data, schedule
    the transfer report to run daily.

  • ESS Record Working Time-Save as Template,Decimal

    Hi Experts,
    I am working on the ESS Standard Web Dynpro Java Record Working Time.
    I faced a problem cannot reset the saved template after the employee has saved the templated thru the button of Save as template.
    Can anybody provide any guide on how to reset the templates indvidually thru ESS Portal ?
    Thanks first!

    Now then there is no explicit button for
    clearing the templates.
    The steps to be followed are Deleting the Templates are :
    Delete Row > Save as Template
    For Next Row
    Delete Row > Save as Template
    it will clear the template ;).
    ie after deleting the single row or mutiple rows a save template
    should be used.
