ESS: Benefits: OPEN ENROLMENT NOT VISIBLE in ESS

Hi Gurus,
This is regarding a SAP HR implementation for US.
Open Enrollment Service is giving a dump with error
u201CNo Correct Adjustment Reason Specifiedu201D.
Following has been checked, still unable to view it in ESS.
u2022     Employees are configured for running Open Enrollment for employees.
u2022     Employees are assigned to appropriate PA and PSA. Country grouping for both the employees is USA: 10.
u2022     Maintained appropriate data in Infotype 0171(General Benefits Information). Correct benefit program grouping is done for both employees ie maintained first and second program grouping for both employees.
u2022     Maintained Benefit Adjustment Reasons for both the employee i.e. Infotype 0378(Adjustment Reason Data).
u2022     Maintained Open Enrollment Offer for employees between 09.13.2008 and 10.13.2008. (MM/DD/YYYY).
u2022     Program HRBEN001 is running correctly in backend. Both employees are able to choose different benefit plans during the open enrollment period.
u2022     User is having SAP_ALL authorizations.
u2022     Resources and Services are correctly defined and linked in the backend.
u2022     HR_BEN_ESS_RFC_ENRO_REASONS is a SAP defined function module to fetch benefit data from Benefit module and post it to ESS internal tables. Testing it in the background using transaction se37 gives correct results in the backend. It is displaying Open Enrollment as one of the Benefit Reasons.
Kindly help with any pointers at the earliest.
Thanks & Regards

ESS Benefits open enrollment - Issue

Hi,
When we click on the benefits open enrollment link, we do not want some of the plans to be displayed to the ess user. Is there any way to control it ( SPRO or BAdI ).
Env - EP 7.0, ECC6.0
Thanks,
Ravi

I posed the same question to an ESS consultant who responded with the following:
"The plans presented in benefits enrollment (PZ14) and Participation Overview (PZ07) are list output from ABAP. You can go into the program and select or exclude some of them based on certain criteria. I've seen customers extend the Plan infotype to add a flag field to make it configurable to show, not show a given plan."
Since specific instructions weren't given, I wouldn't consider the issue answered.
However, I can provide the following work around:
Due to the fact that different populations have different open enrollment period timeframes, and all populations have been configured under one benefit area...we decided to create an "Open Enrollment Adjustment Reason" for each group instead. Thus, the Adjustment Reason permissions will only display the plans we want the employee to see via ESS. Prior to the open enrollment period for the population, we will run the Mass Adjustment Reason report to create IT378 for all relevant employees. The OE offer will appear as another Adjustment Reason under the Enrollment service in ESS.

ESS - Benefits - Open enrollment (Concurrent employment is enabled)

We are trying to set up ESS open enrollment. After adding/editing/changing plans --> review enrollment --> Save.
On saving, getting an error "rfc_error_system_failure" on the ESS screen.
Checked with ST22 for the error details. The name of runtime error is "uncaught exception" and the exception is "CX_HRPA_VIOLATED_PRECONDITION".
Based on a Similar thread on the forums --> Link : [Re: CX_HRPA_VIOLATED_PRECONDITION using HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION to insert rec; and Sap note # 493984 , the error seems to be related with concurrent empoyment.
Analysis:
1. If CE is disabled, there is no error - open enrollment works fine both in R/3 (HRBEN0001) and via ESS
2. If CE is enabled," open enrollment" in R/3 using HRBEN0001 - there is no error.
3. Error occurs only when "open enrollment" is accessed through ESS, when CE is enabled.
Would like to know if some one can share their experience on using ESS open enrollment when CE is switched on?
Version details: ECC 6.0 (support pack level 22 for SAP-HR and EA-HR), EP 7.0 , ESS BP 1.0

ESS Webdynpro Benefits Open Enrollment

We currently have the ITS application for benefits open enrollment (PZ14) up and running. We are trying to setup the Webdynpro service for Open Enrollment.
We are on ECC 6.0, EP 7.0 latest SPs and we are using XSS 600 webdynpro Software Components.
Problem:
When we click on Open Enrollment service (Webdynpro), the following message comes up:
No plan selections could be prepared for the specified enrollment reason. Contact your Benefits Administrator for assistance.
The same service works fine with the ITS service for the same PERNR. The ITS service is able to show up the Open Enrollment without any problem.
Even if I include an entry in Infotype 0378 Adjustment Reasons, the new enrollment reason can be seen under the ITS Service but not under the webdynpro service.
Is there any additional customization (configuration) required for the Webdynpro Service for Open Enrollment.
thanks,

Experiencing the same issue. Did someone find a solution to this?
Thanks!

ESS Benefits Generic Enrollment - Different behavior backend v/s portal

We are using the ESS Benefits generic enrollment service for enrollment kicking off the adjustment reasons on IT 0378.
Here is the configuration set up, trying to simplify to explain the matter. We are on ECC 6.0 with EHP2.
1. Configured one plan type in savings category.
2. Within this plan type, configured 2 plans.
3. Configured all other related configuration to set up the 2 plans.
4. Configured the adjustment reason and the appropriate plan type created in step 2.
5. Created the required adjustment reason on 378.
In HRBEN0001 transaction via backendwe can see the 2 plans configured within the plan type.
But when Trying to enroll from ESS - only one plan can be seen for that plan type, the other plan is not shown at all.
OK - eventually, debugged and found this piece of code in FM HR_BEN_ESS_FILL_SELECTION_DISP. The 2 different plans are there until this piece of code takes one of them Off...
CODE -
3.) Reduce entries to one entry per type and period
delete adjacent duplicates from selection_display_gt
    comparing pernr
              barea
              bpcat
              pltyp
              begda
              sprps.
CODE -
This FM is called only for ESS application and not for backed program.
What we do not understand is why is it behaving differntly on backend v/s portal.
Any information or experience with this form any one of you will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Siddharth,
Thanks for your reply. Yes ESS has its own FMs. The UI, user exits, BADIs etc are different for backend v/s front end.
What we are not clear with, is the different behavior in core functionality -- i.e. When the adjustment reason is processed from the backend using HRBEN0001 - The 2 plans within the Plan Type are available for elections. BUT the same adjustment reason for the same penr when processed from ESS - there is just one plan available for elections.
It's clear from the code, that it is deleting one plan and this code is within the FM which is called only from ESS. But we are still not sure why it should behave differently i.e. 2 plans via backend v/s one plan via ESS.
Wanted to see if anyone can share any information if they have a similar benefits set up .. 2 plans within one plan type FOR savings plan category and then having a adjustment reason set up.
Regards.

Hi Siddharth & Jwala,
the issue got fixed, by changing the order of Payment above the Benefits
1. i made some options to be disabled & enabled in both benefits and payment
2. Then in the portal i could see the benefits and payment
3. inside the benefits & payment i was able to see two option 1 is for benefits & other is for payment
4. we only wanted payment functionality to be displaying
5. so i tried to hide the benefits then noting was getting displayed in the portal
6. finally i changed the order of the payment just above the benefits
then then i was able to see the benefits and payment inside that i was able to see the payment where i was able to see the payslip
i am not sure what i have done but i is working but please let me know what the problem was actually

Restricting certain plans from ESS during open enrollment

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement to restrict plans from ESS during open enrollment. Please let us know the best possible solution to acheive the same.
We have found that Proxy class CL_BENEFITS_AREAPAGE which is assigned to the service can be copied and enhacned to filter the plans, is this the right approach?

I had that exact same delima, but one of our consultants pointed us to the transaction: HRBEN00ADJRSN
This is a mass load of adjustment reasons. You just need to feed the program the total time allowed for adjustments and things like start of records date and end of records date. Because of the dates and the potential for different plans to have different dates, we actually have two open enrollment adjustment reasons. We have one for Flexible spending where I give the 1/1 begin date and a 12/31 end date since it is only effective for the year in question. Then we have our main open enrollment for all other plans where the begin date is 1/1 of the new year and 12/31/9999 for the endda. I then run the HRBEN00ADJRSN twice for the population: once for the flex enrollment, and then again for the main open enrollment adjustment reason.

Regd:Benefits Open Enrollment Issue

Hi SAP,
I have problem in Open Enrollment which is in ESS.
We have used the Portal Navigation for designing the Navigation instead of Homepage Framework.
When we were using Homepage frame work the open Enrollment works fine(ie) it will be highlighted when the period is opened and it will be glared when the period is closed.
But now after changing the navigation design it is working fine when the period is open but its not getting blared or disabled when it is closed instead it gives me the error.
I need to make it disable when the period is closed.
Is there any configuration that I have to do.
Please put me some light on it.
Its very urgent.

I posed the same question to an ESS consultant who responded with the following:

Benefits Open Enrollment using BSP

Hi All,
I am new to the BSP forum. I am a HCM functional person. I wanted to know your view in this matter. We are live in SAP ECC 6.0 with all modules but dont have ESS/MSS right now. We have been doing Open Enrollment via sharepoint forms till now. After employee completes the form the data is udpated in Sharepoint library and then we download these data to excel. We finally upload these data via LSMW/custom program to update Benefits Infotypes. This is a tedious process and takes a lot of time especially the download values from Sharepoint has to to be mapped to SAP fields etc. ESS/MSS may happen next year. We are weighing the pros and cons of creating the forms in BSP instead of Sharepoint. With BSP it might be easy to update the Benefits infotypes.
Is it possible to create forms in BSP and store it in an internal table and then upload these data via a custom program / standard function modules to udpate IT167, IT168 etc.
Please share your thoughts.
Thanks
Sanghamitra

if those form fields needs F4, etc better to go with ABAP webdynpro.

Yes very much possible and much easier to develop and maintain.
