ESS Business Package for SAPNW04s EP 7.0

Hi,
What is the Business Package i have to apply for J2EE7.0 version.Please guide me in this issue.
With Regards
Pradeep.B

Hi Pradeep,
This choice depends more on your back-end version then on your portal version.
Please look here: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/contentportfolio
As you can see there are 3 BP's for ESS
1. Business Package for Employee Self-Service (mySAP ERP 2004) [BP v60.2]
2. Business Package for Employee Self-Service (mySAP ERP) [BP v1.0]
3. Business Package for Employee Self-Service 4.6C - 4.7 [BP v50.4]
option 1 and 2 can 100% run on EP7.0 as it is stated in there discription.
option 3 is not released to run on EP7.0 but from my experiance at a customer that implemented this, it works fine.
Good luck,
Cheers,
Benjamin Houttuin

Problems with user mapping to download ESS Business Package for EP 6.0

Hi,
I am trying to download ESS Business Package for EP 6.0 but facing problems inspite of reading the SAP document on downloading Business Package. Here is my problem:
I start to download the package and to map the user ids. I am mapping the SDN user id to a SAP Service Marketplace user id as mentioned in the SDN website. But the download option is not working and gave an error when I clicked on the 'Download' link after user mapping.
It would help me a lot if anyone else who tried to download BPs after user mapping gave their feedback.
Can someone please clarify about the user ids and describe how can I download the ESS Business Package?
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
from the description you provide I can't tell what the problem might be, so to determine the cause we need more information on this. Screenshots of the error message would be ideal.
In general, the following needs to be done:
- you need to be signed in at SDN with your Service Marektplace s user id
- the user mapping for the data source 'Service Marketplace' needs to be maintained
Please send the error information to: [email protected]
and we will try to solve it.
Thanks, Anke

ESS Business Package for ERP 6.0 is a ABAP or JAVA Web Dynpro

Hi,
We are trying to implement ERP 6.0 and ESS with the Portal.
Is the ESS business package a ABAP or JAVA Web Dynpro????
Thanks.
Regards,
Mike

Hi Mike,
ESS BP is a portal content (runs only on portal runtime) which can only be deployed and run on SAP J2EE server (So it is java based).
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/f6/263359f8c14ef98384ae7a2becd156/frameset.htm
From EHP2 for ECC 6.0, you have an option choose ABAP WebDynpro for Travel related services. However, the portal content (iViews) is still on SAP J2EE server.
Thanks

Reports available in the Business Package for MSS and ESS

Hi,
I have searched sdn.sap.com throughout looking for a comprehensive list of reports available in the business packages for both MSS and ESS, i got a little bit of joy and found some of the MSS reports but not all on sdn.sap.com, can anyone please advise where i would find such information on both these packages, just to re-iterate, i am looking for a list of reports these business packages offer? any help much appreciated.
Thanks
John
P.s any documents can be sent to [email protected]

@John
(1) ESS- We built our own custom PORTAL role/workset in which one of the worksets we created is called "Tools and Forms". Under that workset, we placed various pages/iViews that either are simple URL iViews that link to external documents and such (like vacation request forms since they do not do online leave requests yet) as well as a couple ot t-code iViews that run reports in ECC for the employee. Nothing very mind blowing there. Just some content creation on the portal side.....oh, and some config on the backend to create a Homepage Framework Area Page and all for it (I liked that part!)
(2) Wow....talk about perfect timing...I just had to document the way MSS sees the MDT reports in it's "reporting" area yesterday! haha Here goes the quick explaination....in configuration for MDT, you have various "scenarios". These kinda determine which "groups" of reports will show in MDT. For MSS for the Reporting webdynpro/service, the scenario is RPT0 (in ECC 5.0, at least). Soooo if you look at the function CODES assigned to RPT0, you will see several for Training and one for Accounting (Cost Centers)...you can reference the function CODES listed back to the "pool"/library of function codes a bit up/previous in the same config area for MDT(I think it is called "Define Function Codes"). However, there is one more piece you will see listed under RPT0....it is a DIRECT call to function MODULE "HR_HIS_READ" (this was a bugger to find because I could not find the "Maternity" report listed in the function codes and had to figure out where the heck it was coming from! haha). Anyways....what the function MODULE actually does is call the HR Information System (HIS) passing it the RPT0/MSS scenario. This returns the particular reports for Employee Data and Time&Attendance. You can see this if you run the HR_HIS_READ function directly and enter RPT0 for the second input value (first and third are not needed or you can just enter "*". Sooooo that is how the "magic" happens. Hope that explained it. From there, you can simply config you own scenario/reports to add into MSS if you like.
Hope this helped!

ESS Business Package Error: Period type not allowed for profile ESS

Hi,
We are trying to configure the business package for Employee Self Service on Enterprise Portal 6.0. We followed this SDN contribution <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/21eb036a-0a01-0010-25a3-b2224432640a">ESS doc guide</a>
So far we have successfully deployed the business packages and followed all the configurations that were pointed out in the doc guide. Unfortunately when we try to access the Employee Self-Service portal pages (Overview, Employee Search, etc), we encounter this error:
Critical Error:

Possible to run 2 different Business Packages for ECC 5.0 and 6.0 ?

Hi there,
anybody knows a solution, to support a Busienss Package for ECC5.0 and 6.0 on one NW7.0 Portal?
We build a concernportal as mainportal with different companies in one portal. These companies have their own SAP-Systems.
It´s a complex systemlandscape:
Company ABC have a SAP HR System with ECC5.0 with one client 401.
Company XYZ have a SAP HR System with ECC6.0 with TWO clients 020 and 050.
These both companies wants to get the Business Package for ECC5.0 and ECC6.0
Our solution is to implement the Federated Portal Network, thats works very fine. (Okay, Sessionproblem with ECC5.0)
For company ABC we installed a Javastack on host to install the WebDynpros directly to targetsystem ECC5.0
For company XYZ we have a problem with FPN, because the two clients in the targetsystem.
We installed a Javastack with portal on this machine, import BP for ECC6.0, customize portal and ABAP and pick the roles vis FPN from mainportal. But only for ONE client (020).
Now we can´t connect these Jco´s to the other client, because the users, tehre are in client 050 are not in 020 for logon to the portal. The portal supports only one client as UME on a doublestack-installation.
On Mainportal we don´t install any business packages, because there are only for one Targetrelease.
SAP Help have a solution for mapping the Jco´s, but don´t help us:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/DE/af/84a34098022a54e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
Does anyone have same problems?
Must we install a Javaonly-system, to connect the other Client for company XYZ (050) ?
Best regards
Christian

There are two approaches (that I'm aware of):
- install external authentication (such as an LDAP which can be populated from the R/3 backends)
- install an additional Java instance
I would go for both of them because
- it will make things easier if you implement other functionality that is in the portal (non-ESS)
- it will avoid patching one portal and to keep the SPs of both backend systems in sync with the portal

Fail to import ESS business package..Urgent!

Dear All NWDI expert,
I have installed the NWDI and trying my first step to customize the standard ESS business package. We are on ESS business package 13.
The following are the list of step that i have done. Can anyone tell me which step i make mistakes?
Step
1) Create a new track and assign the SAP_ESS release 100 to the track
2) Copy the 3 files SAPBUILDT13_0.SCA, SAPJEE13_0.SCA, SAPJTECHS13_0.SCA into E:\usr\sap\JTrans\CMS\inbox.
3) "Check IN" the 3 files and check in. Then "check import" and import the files.
4) Copy the SAPPCUIGP09_0-20001215.SCA and SAPPCUIGP09P_1-20001215.SCA into E:\usr\sap\JTrans\CMS\inbox.
5) "Check IN" both file and "check import" for the pcuigp sca files.
6) Import both of the file which is the original file and patch. **(Do i need to import the patch file as well? I did not manage to import the patch file and the status shows outdated )
7) Copy the SAPESS09_0-20000512.SCA and SAPESS09P_3-20000512.SCA into E:\usr\sap\JTrans\CMS\inbox
8) "Check IN" the 2 files and check in. Then "check import" and import the files.
10) Import the 2 files.*(the system show import fail and i hav to repeat all over again by creating a new track)
When i try it for the second time, i am getting the import fail error again and below are parts from the files.
target="_blank">39d5b802352211dcb4890030057116fe</a> exists allready in the repository. No import necessary.
20080422111649 Info :CBS input mode is currently PRIVILEGED
20080422111649 Info :waiting for 10 seconds
The last fail give me the following log
20080422163706 Info :buildspace = E02_BRY_D build request id = 231
20080422163706 Info :wait until CBS queue of buildspace E02_BRY_D is completely processed, before asking for build results
20080422163706 Info :waiting for CBS queue activity
20080422163737 Info :maximal waiting time is temporally increased
20080422163737 Info :build process already running: waiting for another period of 30000 ms
Anyone know which step that i perfrom incorrectly and how to solve the waiting for another period of 30000ms?
Thanks
Regards,
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
Open the CBS Web UI and navigate to the buildspace you are working on.
a. Choose Edit and select Input Mode = OPEN.
b. Save the new state.
c. Try import again.
Reward points if this solves your problem.

Time/LEave approval in Business Package for Manager Self-Service 60.1

Hi all,
Currently implementing ESS MSS on 4.7 system with EP 6.0 SP19.
The BP we plan to use is Business Package for Manager Self-Service 60.1.
My basic question is, we approve leave requests in BP for my SAP ERP (2004s) in the Universal worklist. How do we do the same in Business Package for Manager Self-Service 60.1. There i sno mention on time approval and leave requests approval in the MSS standard documentation ( or probably i missed it).
Any inputs in this regards are highly appreciated.
regards
Sam

Balaji,
in mySAP we had the opition to lauunch the applications in web dynpro. like launch leave approval in web dynpro. do we have this kind of optiion where the manager can approve the work item on the portal application or will it call a transaction based iview to open the work item in the R/3

We have a newly installed Portal 7.3 without any Business Packages installed in it.
My Questions are,
1. If i go with same backend ECC 6 Ehp 4 with Portal 7.3, than what are all the BP's that i have to deploy?
2. Can i go with same Business packages   those i am using currently with Portal 7.01?
3. How to migrate my ESS and MSS apps (customized apps NWDI )from Portal 7.01 to 7.3
4. in future if we upgarde our backend to EHP 5 than what happens to WD java Application. i come to know that ESS application are totally built on WD ABAP for EHP5
Please help me out to determine the correct Business packages for my requirement.
Thanks & Regards
Rajeev Bikkani

Hi,
> 1. If i go with same backend ECC 6 Ehp 4 with Portal 7.3, than what are all the BP's that i have to deploy?
BP's depends upon what all functionality you want to use. e.g If you are using ESS/MSS then you need to deploy BP's for ESS/MSS.
> 2. Can i go with same Business packages   those i am using currently with Portal 7.01?
You should install latest version of BP's on NW 7.3 like for ESS/MSS latest version is 1.51.
> 3. How to migrate my ESS and MSS apps (customized apps NWDI )from Portal 7.01 to 7.3
You need to migrate all these customization manually as PAR files are not more supported for NW 7.3.
> 4. in future if we upgarde our backend to EHP 5 than what happens to WD java Application. i come to know that ESS application are totally built on WD ABAP for EHP5
>
It depends upon you. If you want to use ESS/MSS for web dynpro ABAP then you need to install BP of ESS for web dynpro ABAP but if you don't want to use web dynpro then you can use same way as you are doing currently.
Check SAP Note 1450179 - ESS Based on Web Dynpro ABAP Available.
Thanks

Business packages for Order to Pay process

HI
We do not have SRM available or installed in our landscape. In light of this I am wondering if there are any business packages to cater for the "order to pay process", where a user raises a requisition etc etc .. A package in the form available to HR environments such as ESS that can be imported and customized as required. Thanks in advance for info.
Thanks
Damien

Hiya,
Yann already pointed out where to find the BP for SRM. The Business Package for Supplier Collaboration is also available from the <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/contentportfolio">Portal Content Portfolio</a> in the Specialist section. You want to go for the 2.0 release.
Installation:
In SAP NetWeaver 2004s, the portal is installed as a usage type via SAPINST. For installing the Business Package for SRM 5.0, the installation process also goes via SAPINST. Please follow SAP note 883948.
