1. Hide Tabs
2. Change Label Text
One more thing i want task you that in, from Portal when we are accessing ESS 1.50 Role,we are not able to open specific ESS iView in Portal.i..e Personal Information iView, Personal Details,Family Details,Etc.
Not even a single iView is getting open from Area Group Page.

How to Pass personal number(pernr) to the ESS Webdynpro ABAP Application

Hi,
How to pass personal number of employee to the standard ESS webdynpro ABAP application as application parameter of iview.
Thanks
Srikanth

Hi
For WebDynpro application in iView there is a property to set Parameter for WebDynpro application.
Handel these passed parameters in Default plug of Interface Controller.
Note string passed as parameter in iview is case sensitive.
Try this code to get URl of Deployed application
String appURL = null;
try {
     WDDeployableObjectPart currentAppPart =wdThis
                              .wdGetAPI()
                              .getComponent()
                              .getApplication()
                              .getDeployableObjectPart();
appURL = WDURLGenerator.getApplicationURL(currentAppPart);
} catch (final WDURLException ex) {
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException(
                         new WDNonFatalException(ex),
                         false);

Webdynpro ABAP application to open a document saved in KM

Hi All,
Need your help.
I have the following scenario to work on it:
My client wants to upload the form16 of all employee to EP and and wants to give a link in ess for that file to it's employees. The form16 will in PDF format and the total number of files will be 30,000 as my client have 30,000 employeess and there will be one form16 file for each employee. My client wants to upload all forms16 (30,000 files) to EP every year by replacing the old one for previous year.
I understand that mass upload of files is required as one by one file upload is not possible for 30,000 files. I also understand that after uploading the files to KM, I will need a Web Dynpro ABAP application to download a perticular file from KM to local pc and open it for the logged in employee. And for that the file name should be the employee number so we can get a perticular file for perticular employee.
now, I have the following questions:
1) What solution should I provide to my client for mass upload of 30,000 files to KM so that they can upload those files every year and remove the old files.
2) In Web Dynpro ABAP how can I down load the single file related to loggin user from KM to local (user's) pc and open it in adobe acrobat reader.
I request you to suggest me in this matter.
Thanks in advance.
Vikrant

Hi Thomas,
thank you.
1) What solution should I provide to my client for mass upload of 30,000 files to KM so that they can upload those files every year and remove the old files.
I will put my above question to portal forum.
2) In Web Dynpro ABAP how can I down load the single file related to loggin user from KM to local (user's) pc and open it in adobe acrobat reader.
For my 2nd question, thank for the solution. I have tried with LinkToURL elemtnt and it worked. But I have one more question about the same. I have uploaded one pdf file to km and tried to open this file using LinkToURL element in Web Dynpro ABAP. In the 'reference' property of LinkToURL element I have given path to the document. This path I got from portal when I opened the settings->property of uploaded file, which was something like this:
http://<%hostname%>/irj/go/km/docs/documents/RComm/PDF%20Files/FAQs%20CTC.pdf
In this I have replaced the
<%hostname%>
with actual host name:port number.
So in this case I have hardcoded the hostname:port number.
Is there any way or function module using which I can get the host name and the port number of the portal so in future, if
it changes, I will not need to change the code.
Thanks again.

Modification in standard webdynpro abap application

Hi
In my portal for some of my ESS applications are used in webdynpro abap for example travel expense and travel request now i have a requirement like i have to make the create travel expense button disable based on the condition llike i only he has to click create travel expense after creating travel request .So can anybody let us know how to do modofications in the standard webdynpro abap application.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
For making changes in the standard web dynpro compoenent, you need to create and implement enhancement.
For this you can find many links in SDN on how to create enhancement.
Now coming to your specific requirement.
Here what you can do is open the standard component.
1. press ctrl +F4, It will open a popup there give some name to your enhancement.and desicrption . then press Enter.
Assign it to teh package you want.
2. Go to the view where you want to disable the button, There go to the layout and find the ID of the button. say it is 'BTN'.
3. Now go to methods tab, scroll right and selct post exit method of wddomodifyview emthod.
4. there write the code with the condition you want.
if flag eq 'yes'.
data lv_btn type ref to cl_wd_button.
lv_btn ?= view->get_element( 'BTN' ).
lv_btn->set_enabled( abap_false ).
endif.
5. one last thing is you can create a attribute named flag of type string and set its value to 'yes' when you want the button to enable.
Thanks

Webdynpro abap application for HCM

Dear all,
In enterprise portal->Content Administration->PortalContent->Content provided by SAP->line_manager->Manager Self-Service->iviews->HCM-> there is a PCR application by name "personnel change request". this is a webdynpro java application.
I have installed latest business package of ESS/MSS. so there should be both dynpro java and dynpro abap application. kindly tell me that for the personnel change request PCR application in which package can i find the wendynpro abap application.
Regards,
Bharath

Dear Bharath,
I am no expert on the topic but i can definitely answer your last question.
Yes, Webdynpro ABAP applications are available in the latest versions.I have seen this in ECC Enhancement Package 3 (ECC 603).
I can't really tell you much abt PCRs but the Requisition forms(SRQ3) in 603 are based on WDA application.If interested you can check the Recruitment work center in MSS.
Also, please ensure that the relevant Business Function/Services are activated when using the enhancement packages to see the relevant functionalities.
I think you need to activate the HCM administrative services BF available as of 602 . This definitely uses webdynpro ABAP applications in the portal.
Regards,
Sowmya

Apply custom themes to WebDynpro ABAP application in Portal

Hi,
We have just upgraded the E-Recruitment to EHP4. We have two instances of ECC in which one acts as HR instance and the other one for E-Recruitmet. We have created custom themes for portal and need to apply the same for the WebDynpro ABAP applications for E-REcruitment. I have downloaded the theme and from portal and uploaded the same in MIME folder using SE80 transaction. I have also added the parameter sap-cssurl=/sap/public/themes/<my custom theme folder name>.
Also tried giving the url in application parameter as
SAP-EP-THEMEROOT=http://<hostname>/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.portaldesigndata/themes/portal/customer/<custom theme>
Is there any other way to apply themes for WD ABAP applications. I dont want to customize the standard applications and just want to apply the themes.
Any suggession on this is highly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Vivek.

Hi,
to create theme for webdynpro abap application, use Eclipse Plugin. Please remeber to check the version of theme file before using theme.

Adjusting portal theme of Web Dynpro ABAP application

Hi,
can the style of all UI elements in our Web Dynpro ABAP application changed in the style sheet editor of the portal?
Or shall we avoid some already in the application?
And can we also use the Eclipse Portal Editor to change the theme for our ABAP application in the portal?
Thanks, Regards
Susanne

Most all UI elements can be changed by the Theme Editor. Not all aspects of each UI element is customizable. You will need to look through the theme editor to see what all it supports.
You can use the Eclipse Portal Editor (unsupported by SAP) to change the them of WDA applications.

Web dynpro abap application on Portal does not work via internet access.

Dear All,
I have created a web dynpro abap application and deployed the same on Portal.
The issue I am facing is that the webdynpro application works fine when the end user logs into Portal from Local Network,
However when the Portal is accessed from outside the local N/W via Internet, Portal is working fine for other applications like ESS
but the web dynpro application dont work.
Is this some configuration issue on the portal / abap development or any workaround is possible.
Regards
Abhinav Dagar

Hi
Please try to use the [HTTP Watch 5.0 Basic |http://www.httpwatch.com/download/] tool to trace that WD Application link from the portal and you can easily find out the problem.

WD ABAP Application exists in SE80 but not in SICF

Hi,
how could I make my WebDynpro ABAP applications available in the services list of SICF?
My problem is, that the WD applications from the WebDynpro Component "FITV_FPM_START" (e.g. FITE_EXPENSES), which I need for my ESS in portal, appear in my ABAP Workbench but not as services in SICF.
Anyone knows what could be the reason?
Thanks for your help in advance.

We have created a new i-view and page in ESS for a custom WD ABAP application.

Yet, the i-views that have been created for custom WD ABAP applications are opening in a new page while the standard i-views are opening in the same page.
Would appreciate pointers on how can this issue can be resolved.
TIA.

check your homepage configuration and makesure nothing is there on window name in the resource.

POWL UI Element in ESS- My Trips and Expenses Application

Hi Experts,
There is an application My Trips and Expenses in ESS. The WD ABAP component for which is FITV_POWL_TRIPS. In the application we can see a TabStrip UI element on which there is an ALV on "All My Expense Reports" Tab. I want to hide the "Attachments" Column on this ALV. I have not worked on POWL UI element before. So please suggest how to hide it. As its needed urgently.
Thanks & Regards,
Vaibhav Tiwari.

HEllo Pooja,
In the feeder class(NAme of feeder i donot know), You can get from POWL_TYPE tx.
There is method get_field_catalog ( ), you can do there.
Other way, Go To POWL_QUERY Tx,
Open the Query, click on settings and save the Query.
Run report POWL_D01 and run.

Hi Shibli,
I'm facing the same issue with the POWL only if called from a part of the network outside our country (Italy) so I think it would be a network configuration problem as you suppose. Can you explain us the configuration of the balancer and dispatcher to solve the issue?
Thanks

Automate Customization of "Application customization class name" in BPM

Hi,
I am from BPM Process Accelerators team.
We are trying to automate the "Process Accelerator" install process in DTE.
As part of PA post install tasks, we have to add the value *"oracle.bpmpa.global.model.WorkspaceExternalApp"* against the *"Application customization class name"* field in Application Preferences page in BPM.
