Configure Managers Approval of Overtime in ECC5

Hi,
I'm trying to find where I can configure the columns for the managers approval of overtime view in the backend for ECC5.
The IMG path in ECC6 Time sheet>Setting for all user interfaces>Approval procedure>Approve working times> Define field selection for Individual approval view, doesn't appear to exist in ECC5.
Any help appreciated.
Rob

When the manager opens the overtime approval item, it displays the Sender Cost Centre, I need to display the Receiver Cost Centre and not the Sender Cost Centre.
How can I do this in ECC5?

OC4J 10.1.3 Distributed Configuration Managerment (DCM)

The OC4J J2EE Services document refers to a Distributed Configuration Managerment script:
$ORACLE_HOME/dcm/bin/dcmctl updateConfig -ct oc4j
I don't see this file in my OC4J installation. Does anyone know how I can get this file? Is there something else I need to download/install?

Hello,
DCM is not part of the OracleAS 10.1.3 distribution.
What are you trying to achieve?
If it is in the 10.1.3 documentation it is a mistake, so could you point me to the document that you are talking about?

Timesheet Approval Configuration - Fixed Approval Routing

Hello,
Currently our timesheet configuration is through chain approvals. Team member submits to their manager, manager does approval and sends to me (timesheet manager). I have Fixed Approval Routing unchecked, as I would like for the Manager to be able to select
me as manager to approve. However, after unchecking Fixed Approval Routing, it doesn't seem to pop up for managers to select me as the timesheet manager. They just get the dialogue box to click OK when approving. Is there a configuration I'm missing? I tried
this for every manager by delegating and it seems it just goes directly to their timesheet manager without having a message to send to. Previously, it would work fine, but after a few configuration tweaks it stopped popping up to select timesheet manager.
Johnny Eltawn, Project Server Admin

For Project Server 2013, Try following:
Add yourself in the "Timesheet Managers" list, which can be set under "Server Settings" -> "Timesheet
Managers"
Update Team member and make yourself as "Timesheet
Manager"
thru "Manage User" or thru "Resource Centre."
Update following setting on "Server
Settings" page, in the "Time and Task Management"
section, click "Timesheet Settings and Defaults"
Select the "Fixed Approval Routing" check box.
Under "Task Status Manager Approval", choose "Enabled" if you want managers to be able to approve individual
timesheet lines. You can also choose to "require line approval before timesheet approval."
Hope this will help you.

ARQ: How to configure Role Approve/Reject Email Notifications???

Hi,
I would like to achieve below for my business scenario with below MSMP stage configurations:
MSMS Stages Configurations:
MANAGER --> Can act on both request and line items level
Role Owner--> Can ONLY act on line items
Requirement
In best case, a Manager approves all the line items in an Access Request. Then an email notification mail for "NEW WORK ITEM" would be sent to Role Owner(s) at next stage. This is achieved.
Now at Role Owner Stage, below 3 cases are possible:
1. All Role Owners can approve the line items
2. All Role Owners can reject the line items
3. Some of the Role Owners approve and Some of them reject line items
In all the above cases, a Role Owner ALWAYS click on "SUBMIT" button (as he is not authorized to reject a request as a whole) and this action is considered to be as "APPROVED" and eventually, "APPROVED" event is triggered.
This looks good in case numbers: 1 & 3. Meaning, even a single role is approved, request can be considered as approved and the request details can be sent to business user.
However, I am facing a problem when ALL the line items are rejected by ALL the Role Owners!
This will surely close the request. However, the email notification that will be sent to user in this case will be of "APPROVED" though the request is rejected in a sense (because all the roles are rejected)!
Can anybody please he understand this and design proper solution?
Regards,
Faisal

Hi Faisal,
We are on GRC SP13.
Please do below settings to make role approval/rejection comments mandatory.
2040 - Set this parameter value as YES
In MSMP - Role Owner - Stage settings - Please maintain these settings
I have come across the same scenario as yours. Below is my observation.
When all role owners rejects all roles by REJECTING roles at LINEITEM level, request instead of getting closed at ROLE OWNER stage, it is going to next stage and getting closed there. I assume this is standard behaviour
Let's see if we can get experts advise on this.

Configuring Sequential approval mechanism

Hello,
i have setup a sequential approval mechanism. So when a user requests a role, it first has to be approved by his manager, then by the role owner (exactly as in the page 21 of the documentation http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/80f324e1-925f-2f10-a7a5-dea9be51beed?QuickLink=index&…).
The first approval works fine. SO the manager receives the notification mail and he can approve the request. But once he has done that, for some reason IdM triggers 2 mails, one for the ROle owner and one for the Manager (again), and any one of them can approve the request.
Is that normal behaviour ?
I have made a trace of it, and in the approvers list, both (manager and role owner) appear in the list.
For the second approval i only want one mail to be sent to the role owner, and not to the manager anymore. Is that feasible ?
BR
Y.

Hello Jaisuryan,
here is the workflow as defined in here:
the manager is only manager and has no authority on the roles. The role owner is not a manager and not defined as manager
the manager approval is defined as follow:
and for the role owner:

Error compiling the BPEL classes while configuring custom approval process

Hi,
I get the below error, but unable to fix this. Any one who did face this issue please share your thoughts to overcome this.
Error(45,34): Failed to compile bpel generated classes.
failure to compile the generated BPEL classes for BPEL process "ApprovalProcess" of composite "default/SelfRegistrationApproval!1.0"
The class path setting is incorrect.
Ensure that the class path is set correctly. If this happens on the server side, verify that the custom classes or jars which this BPEL process is depending on are deployed correctly. Also verify that the run time is using the same release/version.
Thanks,
Bhaskar

You need to keep all the custom jars at three places :
1) Soa ext , and make sao extension jar by running ant
2) Bpel classpath
3) in your project as an external referrence

Where to find "Define field selection for Individual approval view" in ECC5

Hi,
I'm trying to find where I can configure the columns for the managers approval view in the backend in ECC5.
Time sheet>Setting for all user interfaces>Approval procedure>Approve working times> Define field selection for Individual approval view, doesn't appear to exist.
Any help appreciated.
Rob

Rob,
Try this:
IMG->Integration with Other mySAP.Com Components->Business Packages/Functional Packages->Manager Self-Service (mySAP ERP)->Working Time->Approve Working Time->Define Field Selection from Individual Approval View
Alternatively use SM34 and go to view cluster VC_PT_FIELD_SELECTION and enter the screen area as CTS.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Configure approval process in Appraisals - Performance Management

Hi Guys
I am trying to configure the approval process. After the final appraisal by the manager, the appraisal forms hould go to the manager of the manager (next level manager) for approval.
My queries:
1. Is the next level manager defined as further participant or part appraiser?
2. Where do we assign the next level manager? In PHAP_PREPARE? I don't see anyplace where I can do that.
I have done the following configuration:
1. At category level, selected Role 'Higher Manager'
2. At category level, in Status flow--> Person Authorized, selected Higher-Level Manager.
3. In the template, selected Higher Manager in Roles.
What am I missing here?

PO approval from e-mail notifications

Hi All,
We have implemented Oracle EBS 11.5.10.2 on Windows (Financials and SCM).
Managers who are responsible for approving POs, want to approve the POs from their e-mails notifications.
I want to know how to implement this though I know this is possible. I have configured Java Workflow Notification Mailer and Test Mails are going, but want to know how to configure PO approval.
Do I need to follow the steps given in:

Thanks. Now the notifications are sent my mails for approval. There is APPROVE FORWARD buttons(links) at the end but when we click it opens the outlook.
Please let me know if any additional configuration has to be done.

ThiruHi there are two types of configurations to handle notifications.
1. Outbound configuration: Responsible for sending notifications out.
2. Inbound configuration: Responsible for reading and taking necessary action after receiving notification.
What you have already done is outbound (sending e-mails). Now you need to configure Inbound.
Please see Notification mailer in section
Once it opens in outlook, make sure it has the "NID (Notification id)" at the bottom and send it to the inbound e-mail you have configured in notification mailer.

UWL Workitem item shows multiple Leave Request for Approval

Dear All ,
I ahve modified standard workflow for leave WS12300111 . I have 2 levels of approval . The step which goes to approver is standard task TS12300097 which is calling DUMMY method of CL_PT_REQ_WF_ATTRIBS class .
Now my problem is suppose 100 people have applied for the leave after managers approval it workitem will go to HR . So in HR's UWL he/she will have 100 workitem . Now supose HR clicks on first workitem in by logging in to ESS . when HR clicks on pop-up comes on the top it has one table sort of thing , here all the 100 leave request r getting diplayed .
<b>I want Table to dislay only the Leave request of an employee belonging to That workitem.</b> Please help in this regard .
Thank you.
Raghavendra.

You will need to modify the UWL XML file. There is a document titled "How to Configure teh Universal Worklist" on service.sap.com you can use to achieve this. Read the section titled Step by Step Decision views.

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.

Karri
