EHP5 and leave request

Hi
I have seen the new functionality around mass approval of leave requests in EHP5. Unfortunately only on paper. My question is:
The list that is presented to the manager: Does it represent records from the leave request database, or does it represent individual workflow task - or a combinaton of the 2?
Thanks in advance
Kirsten

yes it does involve WF also and also read the sent status of the requests from leave request database and displays it to intended approver.
ie
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_05/helpdata/en/e6/c4fb025b4542fcaa6241e9
e5060323/frameset.htm.
For leave request application to be called , we specify the parameters
in transaction SWFVISU through which the application is called when
processed from universal worklist.
I request you to use standard leave request task TS21500003 and please
replace the existing visualization parameter DYNPARAM from
WI_ID=${item.externalId} to
LRF_REQUEST_ID=${item.REQUESTID}. This can be done from transaction
SWFVISU.

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

UWL - Leave Request item still in UWL after approval

Hello,
we are facing the problem that the leave request items have still state "new" after the approval and don't change the state.
But in the list the leave request is not visible any more... so the approval worked.
I found the discussion: Approved items in UWL remains in the status "new". and Leave request workitem in UWL status update issue but that didn't help.
Does someone know what to do?
thanks, Vanessa

Hello Lukas,
with the help of the wiki: http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/UWLworkitemisnotrefreshedafteraLeaveRequesthasbeen+approved I was able to find the required note to get the status fixed. It is now completed and that's great. Unfortunately the items are still there. I am only able to see the new items in the transaction. The old ones are not visible but I need to delete them. Tomorrow I will ask some WF guru to help me fix it.
I also think that there is still a problem with the configuration of the UWL / backend WF. It could be that ne required jobs are not planned. I was happy that the UWL worked so fast but now....
Greetings,
Vanessa

UWL- SAP workitems not visible. ( Leave requests )

Hi All
I am trying to configure UWL so that all leave requests from employee (ESS user) come and sit in the UWL iview of manager in Portal. I am able to get it in Business Workplace in SAP and able to execute the same. But i want the same to be made avaailable in Portal. I have configured the UWL as per documentation and can see the Tasks in the UWL XML on portal but the tasks dont show up in the UWL iview.
Can some one provide a guidance on the same
Regards
PN

thanks Holger,
I had got the same reply from SAP as this seems to be the functionality.
I have some issues though with the Authorisations
I am using ws20000081, ws01000109 transactions for Leave Request and Leave Request Overview.
I am not able to see the Approver name in Approver column in "Create Leave Request" transaction. If i give SAP_ALL, then the Superior name as per the Org strucuture appears in the Approver Column in the service.
Also, the replace button functionality doesnt seem to work. It only shows the Superiors name, I cannot assign any other name where the end user can send the approval if the immediate superior is absent
Appreciate your help
Regards
PN

Select and update leave request data - oracle !!

Dears,
We have a very important presentation here to one of our stakeholders and he is interested to see how to submit and update leave requests using Adobe LiveCycle Workspace.
I have a simple PDF form where the user can choose to submit new leave or update an existing one, if the user choses to update an existing leave he will enter the leave start date and press on a button to retrieve this leave information form the database ( select * from leaves where leave_date=’the entered date’ and requestor=’requestor name’) as requestor name and entered date are variables in the PDF, And then he can update the start date or leave duration and submit his request after updating this record in the database.
Will you please help me how to do that knowing my PDF contains a digital signature and the data saved in a document variable?
The connection with oracle created by updating the adobe-ds.xml file in “C:\Adobe\Adobe LiveCycle ES2\jboss\server\lc_turnkey\deploy” and deploying the ojdbc14.jar in “C:\Adobe\Adobe LiveCycle ES2\jboss\server\lc_turnkey\lib”.
Database is oracle10.2.0.1.0
Adobe LiveCycle Workbench ES2
Version: 9.5.0.0.20100908.1.247189
Many thanks in advanced,
Mohammed Al-Mosleh

Leave Request Team Calendar and Small White Box

Hello Everyone,
I am attempting to adjust the team calendar colors in Leave Request using the method TEAM_CALE_ENRICHMENT of BADI CL_PT_ARQ_REQ. When I set the LegendID field of table CH_CALENDAR_TAB, I am getting a small white box in the Web Dynpro Team Calendar View. Does anyone know how to get the Team Calendar to not show this box and to correctly show the color? I noticed a post from a couple of years ago with this same topic, but no solution was entered.
https://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=24695594&messageID=4366488
Also, I was successfuly in adjusting the colors of the calendar (not team calendar) using the method SET_CALENDAR_COLOR.
Any ideas on how to properly change colors in the Team Calendar?
Best Regards,
Scott

In the method IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ~SET_CALENDAR_COLOR you specify what
color do you want.This will be with respect to the Legend.
And in the method IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ~SET_CALENDAR_LEGEND_COLORS you
specify what color the legend specifies. This is set with respect to
RED,GREEN,BLUE. Combining this three basic colors the
rest of the color can be produced.
There are 16 colors. Please go through the class CL_PT_REQ_CONST.
For Eg: You want to display the Annual leave in the color with respect
to the legend C_COLOR_STANDARD. Then in the method
IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ~SET_CALENDAR_LEGEND_COLORS you specify in the internal
table ch_legend_tab the exact color of
   ch_legend_tab-COLORRED = C_COLOR_STANDARD_R.
   ch_legend_tab-COLORBLUE = C_COLOR_STANDARD_G
   ch_legend_tab-COLORGREEN = C_COLOR_STANDARD_B
   ch_legend_tab-LEGENDID   = C_COLOR_STANDARD.

EHP5 Leave Request Team Calendar

We are in a process upgrading our old Java/Web Dynpro Leave Request application to ABAP Web Dynpro based.
In old application supervisors were able to view Team Calendar for both Directly Subordinate Employees as well as ALL Employees. However, new application there is no option to show ALL Employees.What could be the reason? Will appreciate any input on this.
Thank you,
Bobby

YES YOU CAN

http://help.sap.com/erp_mss_addon10/helpdata/en/44/3c852568e84d1a9e79b208457a2011/frameset.htm
note that
Team Calendar and attendance Overview -
there are higher level managers who in very rare case also want to check
the attendance and team calendar of all employees. So for this case we
provided a drop down where the manager could choose all employees. But
again we do not expect this to be a very common use case. In case this
is a common Use Case we expect customers to ensure that 'All employees'
appears first in the drop down.

UWL Leave Request Approval and Page Not Found

Hello Everyone,
We are in the process of implementing leave request with EP 70 ECC 6.0 and I am trying to implement the approval portion in the UWL. The workflow is appearing correctly in the UWL; however, when I click on the request in the UWL, I get a pop up with an error message that has "Page Not Found or Not Available." Does anyone know what could be causing this? I have read some of the other messages and transaction SWFVISU has been mentioned, but I am not sure how to set this up or if this would even resolve my problem.
Also, one of the reasons I have decided to go the UWL route is because the Leave Request Approval Web Dynpro has too many steps. Our users will not like having to click Approve, then Review, then Approve Request. If set up correctly, would the UWL have this many steps? I would imagine so if it is calling the same Web Dynpro, but I thought I would ask. Ideally I would like to have our Approvers select the Leave then choose approve and that be all they do.
Please let me know what you think.
Best Regards,
Scott

Dear Scott,
I am having this problem as well.
I did 2 things to fix this problem.
Firstly, please go to SWFVISU and check the visualization parameter for the below task.
TS12300097
TS12300104
TS12300116
Make sure it is package value is sap.com/ess~lea. It is not com.sap. Then re-register your UWL and it should be workin.
Let me know if it still does not and you may need to check your WAS setting.
Rewards point if useful

Bryan

How to configure and test workflow for Creating Leave Request

Hi,
When I select leave request iView in portals I get an R/3 screen titled "Create Leave Request".And when I fill in the details for approver and press send I get this error message "You are not one of the possible agents of the task".
So help required to configure and test the workflow behind Create leave request iView.
Regards,
Pavanmeet.

Pavanmeet,
you have to set all activities in the workflow to "general task" as well, not only for WS12300111 itself (doubleclick on each symbol with the "triangle").
check the status of the sent leave request in transaction PTARQ (Display Documents). Here the "next agent" & the "pers. no" of the next agent is of interest.
logon with the user, that is saved in infotype 0105 of the above mentioned pers.no. there should be the approve request.
you can check the status of the workitems with SWI1 (i assume your system is prepared for workflows , check SWU3)

ESS Leave request : Asks for login and password.

Hello,
We are on R/3 4.7 and ITS 6.2 with EP 50.4.
We are using the SAP Inbox service here integrated with portal. (BWSP). I am able to see the SAP Inbox along with workitem.
When I am selecting the workitem (leave request came in inbox for approval) and clicking other than execute button on it i.e. attachments, forward, Replace or resubmission it is working but when I click execute button it is once again asking me the login and password to enter SAP system.
If I enter the same again works properly.
We are having ITS 6.20 and UWL supported ITS 6.4. So we must go through BWSP only.
Kindly reply for the following.
Thanks and regards,
Gaurav J.
