Changes to the ESS Personal Data iview

Hi There
With regard to the 'Personal Data' iview on ESS.
I have a scenario where fields marked as REQUIRED are DISABLED.
How do i enable them ?
When trying to change the field configuration by previewing the Personal Data iview and then doing 'control + right click' on the relevant disabled field the changes DO NOT take effect.
When changing an enabled field the change take effect.
Any ideas as to what may be causing this ?
Any advice with regard to resolving this issue will be appreciated.

Hi,
The ESS/MSS fields can be enabled/disabled from spro settings at the backend.
Please check with HR consultant to see the status of that field.
The pathmay be:
>Personnel Management > personnel administration > own data > personal data
Thanks

How to hide the "EXIT" button on the ESS Personal inf. iViews

Hello,
We are using SAP ECC 6.0 + SAP EP 7.0 + ESS 1.0 (latest Releases).
In the ESS iViews (Java WD) for Personal information (Adresse, Bank, Family, etc. there is the Button "Exit"..
Does any have any Idea where and how to hide this "Exit" Button in the iView/Java-WD?
Many Thanks,
Nazih

Hi Chris,
thanks for your reply.
If you mean to hide the button using the iView/WD Personalisation by rightclick on the iView in PCD and then Review, well yes i know this and i have tried this already before and we were able to hide some not required input fields in the Webdynpro, but we were not able to find and to hide the "EXIT" Button using the personalisation..!!?? you know why?
Why to hide the Exit button, i will tell you why, in the iView for maintainig the ESS Personal Information -> e.g. Adresse --> Edit Adresse View (Roadmap view No. 2) --> when User click on the Exit Button --> This will open new browser Window with ESS... ---> This second Browser Window (Pop up) would confuse the User, since he already have an opened window, so the Customer mean why open new window, since the user can simply click the Button Back and so his data are also saved..
How can we manage to control the behaviour of the Button, so the iView is closed safety without that new Pop-up windows are opened...
Many Thanks,
Nazih

Hide or remove delete button - ESS personal data iView

Hi, regarding for example ESS(50.4) personal data overview iView.
How to hide or remove delete button in the personal data overview iView screen(I know that this can be done on the ITS server side (web studio), but I want to do this in R3)
/Best Regards
Patrick

Achim was right on. Edit/Change the Internet Service in R/3. A few things to consider though....
(1) if using the original service, you may want to create a copy of theme 99 into your own theme (any number will do...99 is just the default theme). If doing so, be sure to change the service's service file (yeh, I always loved that about SAP's naming) to point the ~theme paramter to your new theme.
or
(2) Copy the entire service into your own "Z" service. Then modify the templates as you wish. You will need to point the iView to this "Z" service too.
Also, it is best to do it via SE80 vs. file level because then it will be part of a transport and follow the correct path through the landscape.
Now, if you really want to go back to R/3....find the function module or program the transaction code for your service actually calls, make a "Z" version of it, modify it, create your own "Z" t-code to call it, and THEN modify the internet service's service file (either the original SAP one or a custom version) to call your new "Z" t-code. Lot of work...yes, I know....but that's the way it's done if you gotta get back down to the ABAP level.
Hope this helps!

Bringing additional field in "Personal Data" iView

Hi All,
This problem might have been discussed on SDN, but I could not locate any concrete solution so posting new question.
We are implementing ESS for multiple countries including US, UK , Japan. Language is english only.
For ESS > Personal Data application, we would like to have Suffix field avaialble on the iView.
There is a field for Suffix in Infotype 0002, but there is no field on the iView.
Questions are :
(1) How this can be brought in the iView?
(2) Can this be done using any configuration or need customization using NWDI ?
(3) Does a single process or config will make it available in iViews of all countries?
Thanking in anticipation.
Regards,
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh
Each ESS service is country specific therefore it has to be customizied by country
Regarding adding fields you would normally do this by "Inserting a child" into the relevant views transparent container
- modifying by NWDS is only part of the customization - you still need to ensure the model recognises the
field and passes values to and from the Portal with the correct business logic
I also found the following which may be of interest -->

Problem with displaying a standard field in Personal Data iView

Hi,
I'm trying to display the field 'Nickname' from infotype 0002 in the Personal Data iView. I searched SDN and SAP Help and all of the replies/documentation refers to "Maintain V_T588MFPROPC". I want to display this field in the Edit and the Review and Save screens.
The steps given in this forum seem straightforward but in reality it's a nightmare. I've spent days and nights debugging and testing, but still couldn't solve this. I can see from my debugging that the field is filled in with the appropriate values in all the internal tables/structures but it is not shown at all in the iView. What I got from maintaining V_T588MFPROPC is just the field's attributes.
How do I actually display the field in the Review and Save screens of the Personal Data iView? Does this involving modification to the iView Java program? Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

V_T588MFPROPC is the table where you add the technical field name for the country version you are using
like for USA it is 10
Now the same field if supported should appear in all screens, it if it not then you would need java modification
of the ess component

MSS Personal data iview

HI Experts,
I have to add phone field in personal data iview.
I am using EP7.0 Portal ,and this is a webdynrpo based iview,I wanted to know whether there is any hidden field for phone or we need to add this field or is there any configuration required from backend.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Vinay

Hi,
If this field already manitained at r3 side, you need to get that field from R3 as same what the other fileds you are getting. Nothing is required for this only thing you have to Map this field and you have to bind this field to your view.

I performed a time machine backup without plugging my labtop into a power source. My computer died and all the settings were changed, ie the clock and date were changed back to 2001. So I tried to restore my computer using a previous time machine backup.

I performed a time machine backup without plugging my labtop into a power source. My computer died and all the settings were changed, ie the clock and date were changed back to 2001. So I tried to restore my computer using a previous time machine backup. (which I now know was wrong). However, when time machine tried to restore it said there was not enough room to do a backup. It seems that it did a half backup because some essential files such as system profiler are now missing. Can I undo this restore...? What can I do to fix this

You need to do a full system restore, per Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #14.

Unable to create or update the Excel Personal data provider in Web Rich

Hi All,
Iam getting the below error message ,when iam using Excel as personal data provider in WEBI Rich Client.
"Unable to create or update the Excel Personal data provider in Web Rich Client Cannot open the workbook WIS:10872"
Please suggest a solution ,it helps a lot..
Regards
Mahesh

Hi,
Was this issue resolved? I see this post has been marked answered but there wasn't any information on what it took to resolve the issue.
We have our CMS and processing servers on Linux while our Scheduling servers are on Windows. The WEBI reports with external data providers fail to run on Infoview/ scheduler.
We were told this is addressed in FP 3.6 but that is not the case. We installed FP 3.6 but still continue to see these errors. It required us to manually deploy the ExtensionFactoryService package for enabling the refresh of such reports on infoview/schedulers. It also involves placing of the file used [.xls/.txt] on the linux server on the PersonalDPFiles directory.
No luck so far!!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Personal Data iview can be changed

ESS-PersonalInformation--PersonalData-Webdynpro based iview
I have a scenario that i need Personal Data only for display purpose.There should not be Edit button inorder to edit.
Can we make changes to the Personal Data iview

Personal Data uses SAP transaction PZ13 behind it. You could make a Z copy of the SAP Program (function group EHF5) and remove the 'change' button from screen 100. Then create a new iview that references this custom program/transaction.

Personal data iView error....Anyone able to help?

Hi All,
I have a problem with my EP. I have create an iViews and link it to employee bank information (PZ03) which I publish this thru SE80 under Internet service. On the R/3 side, if I login as the employee, by typing /n then press enter and I type PZ03. I am able to see the screen. The problem is when I wanted to display the personal data (PZ13); I could not publish it in SE80 under Internet service. It gives me an error message that the object does not exist. However I am able to view the screen if I log in as an employee in R/3 (same with what I did for PZ03).
On the EP side, I am not able to view that personal data (PZ13) iView. It gives me some error message which listed below. It is working fine in my development EP. Is there anything that I need to re-publish or any service that I need to activate?

Although I haven't used XSQL specifically with MySQL database, your issue is clearly related to some dependence on Oracle JDBC drivers. The first place to look - did you change the <connectiondefs> section of the XSQLConfig.xml file to include appropriate connection parameters for your database, including a class name of the MySQL JDBC driver? Another thing to try - switch to Tomcat's DataSource implementation - for instructions see comments in XSQLConfig.xml file. You'll need to use oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLDatasourceConnectionManager factory instead of the default one. Note that some advanced features may not be supported with DataSource-based DB connections, but those seem to be fairly obscure.
Hope this helps,

Hi Shiv,
This issue of new window will occur not only in Personal Data , but in other ess services as well. There is a setting which you have to maintain called the Wworkprotect mode.
For a single user it is ,
click the personalise link in the right hand top corner after logging into the portal.You will find an option called 'Work protect mode' in the Left hand side of the 'personalize' window. choose any of the radio button suitable for you. In this case, choose 'open in the same window'. and save it.Relogin to the portal to see the change.
For all users, you can make a general setting
Go to Sysytem Adminstration -> System Configuration -> Service Configuration -> Expand Application -> Expand com.sap.portal.epcf.loader -> Exapnd Service -> open epcfloader.Change the property Workprotect.mode.default to 2.
Right Click com.sap.portal.epcf.loader -> click on Adminstrate -> Click on Restart.
You can also refer to note - 734861

Change Time Constraint for Personal Data InfoType

Hi,
How to change the Time Constraint for Personal Data InfoType.
I tried to do it in Customisation Procedure --> Infotypes, but the option to change Time Constraint is disabled for Infotype 0002.
Thanks

Hi,
you can change time constraints in general attributes of infotype attributes,this can be done through table maintenace view V_T582A.
But note that we cannot change the time contraints for mandatory infotyepe of personnel in an organization i.e -0000,0001,0002.
ex:- without personal details like names no personnel will exist in an organization.

Smartform Alignment for the PDS(Personal Data Sheet) for Japanese Language

Hi,
I have a Probelm in the alignment in the smartform for the Personal data sheet report when logon in
Japanese language.
The texst are Overlapping.
For example:
I have 2 columns in the PDS such as Postion title and Job title.
The texts in the Postion title is Overlapping into the Jobtitle and So on.
And the issue is happening only when i log onto Japanese Language(JA) where as for other languages
the texts are not overlapping.
Could anybody help me in solving the issue.
Thanks.

Japanese characters usually occupy duble byte space, that is a single japanese character will occupy the space of 'AB',
so what you can do is,
change the layout of the Screen (make the window larger),
you can split the text and write it in two lines (if your team agrees)
you will have to create a seperate Smartform for Japanese Language
you can try condensing the text &test(C)& for certain texts it might work
