Deactivate absence type in CATS screen

Hi,
I have to hide one absence type in CATS ESS portal screen.
I have configured the absence type in this path,
Cross-Application Components -> Time Sheet ->Specfic Settings for CATS regular -> Select Allowed Absence Types.
But i am still able to see the absence type in CAT2 screen. Does this really work in ESS portal screen.
We don't have any testing portal to check this.
Kindly suggest me on this.
Thanks,
puspita

could be a cache issue, have your portal admin clear the portal cache and check again it should work. If you are on ehp5, the cache is on the backend app server... a basis guy should be able to help you in that regard.
cheers

Time constraint classes and screen number for absence type

Hi all,
What should be the Time constraint classes and screen number for absence type.
The different absence types are annual leave, sick leave , study leave , personal leave, maternity leave , juryduty leave nad leave without pay etc
Kindly help.
Regards,

The time constaint class depends on the client requirement.
eg.if they want that a error needs to be generated while overlapping absences or warning message is required.
Time contraints comprise the following:
Time constraint classes that determine which collisions in time data records are allowed
Time constraint table that contains the time-based collisions allowed in the time data records
Time constraint indicator that displays whether a new data record that collides with an existing time data record can be transferred to the system or whether the transfer is prohibited
For screen number you will have to see if the is quota based deduction or just an absence. Here is the documentation of screen number from SAP
In the standard system, the following numbers are allocated to the screens:
1. 2000 - General absence
This screen is used for all absences which do not require special processing (such as paid leave of absence for getting married).
2. 2001 - Quota deduction
This screen is used for entering data on leave or time in lieu of overtime.
3. 2002 - Work incapacity
Use this screen for all absence types where continued pay should be taken into account automatically by the system.
4. Special screens have been developed for the following absence types:
2003 - maternity protection, parental leave
2004 - military and non-military service
2005 - work incapacity (Netherlands)
Please go through the documentation of the configuration.

How to keep Default Attendence/Absence type in Record working time (CATS) application?

Hi Friends,
I tried by keeping default value in Profile for Attendence/Absence type but it is not reflecting in CATS application. It is reflecting after entering from time and to time and after pressing ENTER button.
But i have to display the default value while loading the application?
Is it possible?
Can you pls suggest me the solution?
Thanks,
R V Narayana

Hi Siddharth Rajora,
Thanks for your reply. We tried by maintaining standard template for a profile. But It is not allowing us to change the default value in Attendence type.
Let us consider we kept default attendence type as Attendence for 7rows. If we changed the default value of 2nd row from Attendence to Leave, After pressing Save Button the entry which contains Leave is going down to 8th row.
So i dont think that this is a better solution.
I will try with jyothi solution and will come back to you.
Thanks,

CATS Screen dumps when navigating between prev and foll weeks in ESS portal

The medical leave absence type MEDICAL LEAVE @1/2 PAY(13) is the only allowed by time administrators to enter through transaction CAT2 and not through ESS. Once entered,this appears in your time entry in ESS as a disabled entry. However once you navigate between the previous or the following weeks, after this entry appears in your screen, the screen dumps.
SAP allows this functionality where time entries can be maintained for an employee through CAT2 on ERP side with an absence type not available in ESS portal.
The following is the dump analysis from ST22.
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below. |
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_RANGE_OUT_OF_BOUNDS', was not
caught in
procedure "PROCESS_TIMESHEET" "(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:
In the running program "CL_XSS_CAT_RFC_COMMAND_TOOLS==CP", part of a string was
about to be accessed
with an explicitly specified length.
However, this length (4) exceeded the current length of the string
(3).
| This kind of access is illegal.
Kindly suggest.

The latest note released by SAP to solve this issue is 1559416 CATS WD: Dump if Attendance/Absence type is deactivated .It works !

Display Additional Absence Details based on Absence Type selected

On Oracle Absence Details screen through SSHR,
Can display of Additional Absence Details fields be related to Absence Type field in any way ? Requirement is to display additional flex fields only for one absence type and not for others but in SSHR, additional absence details fields are always shown irrespective of what user selects.
Thanks,
Tanveer

Hi Tanveer,
Context sensitive DFFs are currently not supported by OAF and there an ER 6625335 logged by Oracle for the same.
In absence of context sensitive DFF you can use the $FLEX$ option, using this option you can define dependent segments which will get enabled only in case of a specific value for all other values the fields will be read-only.
Also, in order to read the absence data while leave application you will have to read the absence_type data from the HTML code stored in the HR_API_TRANSACTIONS table dumped into a column CLOB named TRANSACTION_DOCUMENT. For more details on how to read XML data from HR_API_TRANSACTIONS refer the link http://www.apps2fusion.com/apps-training/apps-functional-documents/ame-sshr/436-parse-xml-hrapitransactions-sshr-hrms-self-service
Hope it helps. Let us know if you need further details.

Adhoc Query Absence Type.

Hi All,
I am trying to add a column in adhohc query.
Regarding "Leave type" and I am trying to pick this from info type 2001 field name AWART but in the output it is not displaying and the report is blank for the Absence Type column though data is maintained in info type 2001 AWART filed.
Am i doing it in right way?
Need your help experts.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Prasad Kumar

Thank you for the spontaneous reply.
Even i don't see Paryoll hours and days is there any particular reason for this. Please find the screen shot blow.
This is a existing report(Query: PT_ABSENCES) in the system, I guess its a default report available in the system and even i tried with a new custom query using info type 2001 with same filed AWART to pick the data but it is reflecting in the output.
Thanks in Advance.

RFC to return Absence Types

Hello all,
Does anyone know if there is a current SAP RFC we can call from a Web Dynpro application in order to return the content of the T554T table containing the list of Absence Types used in the CATs Working Time table? or is this something we will need to build a custom function to accomplish?
Thanks,
-Kevin

Brian R wrote:
In our case we don't just have a single value we need returned. We call our method and expect to have 2+ values returned. So are you saying in that case you build the class wrappers around the primitive objects?If youw ant to return multiple results a common pattern is to pass an array which you can populate and optionally a length to say how many values were returned. e.g.
public int read(byte[] bytes);Such a method can populate any number of bytes (up to its length) and it returns the number of bytes populated. read() often returns -1 to indicate no more data is available.
You can do the same with an int array, or a long arrary. If you don't want to return the length, you can use the first or last element to hold the length. e.g.
public void populate(byte[] bytes, int[] ints, long[] longs);

CAT2 - Default different absence types for different sets of cmployees

Hi all,
I have ben trying to do this for quite a while
I am trying to default different sets of absence types for different sets of employees ( diff employee groups)
I would ideally not want to create different cats profiles for these employees.
Has any one done this before.
I have chedked the user exits cats0002, the badi cats_derivatives and the customization but could not find a way to do this. Any ideas on how to do this w/o defning new cats profiles for each type of employee?
regards
Raj

Enhancing 0315 wouldn't help.. starightaway.. you would still need to add code to default the A/A type.. & CATS0002 kicks in after User input.. looks like you will need to modify Std code..

at this moment, I am getting this on 2001 screen
Absence hours                8,00
Absence days                 1,00
Calendar days                1,00

Absence days                 0,50
Calendar days                0,50
kindly help in this scenario.

Hi Monam,
Can yuou check the view V_T554S for your absence type.
The minimum duration and maximum duration in 'Input Chceks' Box should be '000' and '999'.
Minimum duration in days
The Minimum duration in days defines the minimum permitted duration of
    an attendance or absence.
Attendances and absences that are allowed to last for less than one
    workday are assigned the indicator 000. Attendances and absences that
    are to be rejected by the system if they are shorter than one day are
    denoted by an indicator greater than or equal to 001.
Dependencies
In the Unit field, you determine which of the three durations in days
    should be used for the validation.
Thanks & Regards, Swapnil Mishra

HOW TO Restrict Absence Type LOV Self Service in 12.1.3

Hi All,
Will someone please inform of whar is the package to use for this new feature restriction as stated below. Thanks.
From new feature PDF 12.1.3:
3.26.4.6. Restrict Absence Type LOV
Prior to this release, all absence types created using Oracle HRMS are displayed to users in Self-Service HR. With this release, implementers can update ""a package"" to restrict the absence types that are displayed to users based on the business requirements. This feature ensures that employees enter only those absences for which they are eligible, and managers do not have to verify the validity of the absence type of employee requests.

Apologies for the delay here.
The package in question is hr_absence_restricted. You replace the Package Body of this package so that the function absences_restricted returns a comma-separated array of Absence Type ids that SHOULD NOT be displayed.
For example,
RETURN '123, 456, 789'
Would prevent Absence Type Ids 123, 456 and 789 from appearing in the user's List of Values. This is supposed to be described in the following Oracle Article but it's not published:

HCM Absence types- need to display in different languages in the same country based on user language preference

Hi
We are implementing in Belgium where we need to have absence in both dutch and French for the different user sets. Is there anyway to set up one absence type but have the different translations for the different user groups. There was a document ID 1619320.1 that referred to the fact that if the absences were created by a seedfile then they would be translated. Has anyone come across this issue whereyou need to display the same absence type for more than one language in the same country and how did you do this or did you have to set up separate absence types in the different languages which I do not want to do
thanks

Hi Parker
If you are using Captivate 4 multi languages is a
posibility..
Set a User Variable to pass the language you want to a Flash
SWF whic is embeded (This can play and hold multiple audio tracks).
For example Captivate 4 will pass "french" to the embeded flash SWF
which will play the "french" track.
OR
you could just use branching ;)

Changing file type format in Screen Capture (shift command 4)

You'd think this would be in a preference menu! But it's nowhere to be found in any apps preference or system preferences.... I've seen posts how to do it in Terminal... and people sell programs to do it.... but Tiger and Leopard have t built in.. sort of....
The default file format when using SCREEN CAPTURE (ShiftCommand4) was a .pdf ... but then it was changed to .png Some people can't read .png... so I wanted my captures to be in .jpg format.
You can change the file format type of your SCREEN CAPTURE to any of the following:
JPG, JPG-2000, TIFF, BMP, PDF, Photoshop, PICT, SGI, PBG, TGA
But first you have to have a file you want to change (say it is a png).
Open the file using Preview.
Once open, under File (in the menu bar) go down to SAVE AS.
There's you'll see FORMAT and a pull down menu. Choose which one you want...
Screen capture will now open your captured pictures in that format.
Crazy, huh?

The OP here was using a keyboard shortcut, not Grabber.
I did some further exploring. I just tried TinkerTool again, and again was able to change the file format of saved screencapture files to jpeg. TinkerTool modifies the com.apple.screencapture.plist file the same way that the Terminal command does.
This clearly works for command-shift-3 and command-shift-4, which save the screencapture image as a file. However, on looking more closely at the O.P.s initial post in this thread, he/she actually said
I use keyboard shortcut control/command/shift/4
When you include the control key in the command, the screencapture image gets saved to the clipboard instead of to a file, and you wouldn't normally be aware of its format until you pasted the clipboard contents somewhere else. I don't know where the OP was pasting it, but as was noted in the thread cited above by Baltwo, pasting a sceencapture image from the clipboard into a mail.app message results in a .tiff file being pasted. I also find this to be true in my system - perhaps this is what the OP was doing all along.
However this is an issue caused by the receiving app, not by the screencapture function. It's possible to look directly at the contents of the clipboard via:
Finder>Edit Menu>Show Clipboard
With my screenshot format set to jpeg by TinkerTool, I used control-command-shift-4 to save a screenshot to the clipboard. Looking directly at the clipboard in Finder as above, the clipboard image was a jpeg. When I then pasted the clipboard contents into a mail message and used Mail>File Menu>QuickLook Attachments, the pasted graphic in the mail message was a .tiff.
