  • ESS CATS Timesheet

    Hi,
    I want to display the planned hours in the working hours row in CATS timesheet in portal implemented as CATS Regular.
    Is there any configuration change needed for that in the CATS profile or I need to use an user-exit. If a user-exit is needed, please let me know which one.
    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Hi Bala,
    Thanks for the tip. The exporting parameter ta_timesheetdata has the timesheet data and when I enhanced the FM HRXSS_CAT_WD_RECORD, I was able to get the working hours to display in the planned hours. But the problem is, I got the working hours data from WS in IT0007 which is not giving the correct output.
    I want some way in which I can link the PERNR to Personnel subgrouping and Daily Work Schedule. I could find them in T550A but i couldn't figure out a way to link them to PERNR.
    And one more thing is I want some FM where if I give the holiday/factory calender ID, then it should return me the dates which are holidays in a given date range. The reason being those days should display 0 as working hours.
    So Any ideas???
    Thanks,
    Kumar

  • ESS Cats Timesheet Performance Considerations

    Hi Experts,
    We are using ESS Standard Portal Cats timesheet.
    But the client is not happy with way the Timesheet performs
    Like for example to fill up time in one of the cell -  when the user places the cursor it takes 3-4 secs for the entire row to get selected ( orange in color ) . Once selected the user can fill that cell.
    Our users timesheet runs from 20-30 lines so u can imagine how painful its for a user to complete booking his time.
    The row selections is one of the major pain points in our timesheet.
    Can we do any thing about the slow performance of our timesheet?. I mean something from the design perpective of Java Webdynpro.
    We are also open to develop something in custom.  But we would still end up developing a java wd application. Would it be worth the effort considering the standard timesheet is also in java wd/
    All your thoughts/experiences would be appreciated.
    Thanks alot

  • ESS CATS Timesheet without Project Systems

    Hi experts,
    My customer have ECC EhP7. So far the customer uses a .NET based custom web based application to book time against projects.
    Possibly the project information are stored somewhere in the background database the custom application is connecting to.
    Now they want to move to SAP ESS CATS for time recording.
    Also, they have not implemented the projects information in PS module and have no plan for the same.
    In this situation, if I have to get those project information in CATS, what are my options?
    Is it mandatory in CATS to maintain the project details in PS module ?
    Best Regards

    Hi Count,
    Thanks a lot for your help. Can you please give me little more technical inputs on how to add a z field in CATS?
    And about sending data from catsdb to .net system through file, can you please little elaborate on this
    in terms of what kind of objects need to be developed for this?
    Any function module needs to be developed and configured as a batch job?
    Would this function module will extract data from catsdb and send to .net system in the form of a
    flat file or idoc?
    Can you please advise.
    Best Regards

  • ESS CATS timesheet - template lines repeat when saving

    Hi experts,
    We have implemented CATS on SAP Portal and when you have a time entry template, and you save your time entries, the saved time is "pushed" down the timesheet by blank template lines. This happens only on the web Dynpro version (ECC does not happen) of the timesheet. If there is no template defined, everything works fine.
    Is this a know bug? I am on the verge of raising a message with SAP, but was hoping someone here would have the solution.
    Best Regards,
    AS

    you are on which release we have notes 1112545
    and 1017728 1143980
    also ensure that attributes like absence attendance type which are displayed should be set as input in CAC2
    ie
    Please ensure that all fields in CATS screen are set as input
    If you record an extra attribute than
    the one already saved with the Template, You are bound to get an
    Line Split. Please check if your user exit is defaulting any
    extra attribute or you are adding it during the recording
    of time or being defaulted using 0315 infotype
    Line split occurs when the Employee records time to
    a different attribute ie already available in the Template
    for him
    An example
    You need to ensure that the attributes are not changed
    ie new values defaulted using the exit, which are doing
    Example
    Your template has values :    A   B
    Your exit defaults       :    A   B   C >>> C added extra, line split!
    So ensure A B C are already saved as template. Makes sure your
    end users or the exit is not adding extra attribute to the recording
    time
    This is what i am trying to explain if this is possible.

  • E72 - calendar, default viewing time in Daily View

    Hi
    on my E63 when I go to a different day to today it defaults to opening the calendar at 8:00am, however on my E72 it defaults to starting display at midnight. I find this a little annoying as I seldom have anything to see there.
    I have looked for a setting to configure this, but actually can't find it on either phone.
    Anyone know if its just 'hard coded' or configurable? If configurable how please?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Lily,
    Thank you for the information. Now that I understand how the tasks are sorted by default in daily view, is there a way to modify this on the client side?

  • Sorting tasks in daily view

    Does anyone know if there is a way to sort tasks while working in the daily view of the calendar? I know the tasks can be opened in their own window and sorted by the various columns. However, I can't seem to sort the tasks in daily view and can't seem to understand how they are sorted by default.

    Hi Lily,
    Thank you for the information. Now that I understand how the tasks are sorted by default in daily view, is there a way to modify this on the client side?

  • ESS CATS: Hide "Daily View" tab

    Hi,
    We are using ERP 2005, ESS BP 1.0. The ESS CATS has 2 views weekly and daily.
    Is it possible to hide/disable Daily View tab..
    I tried controlling this with the properties in data entry profiles.
    It does not work and it gives errors.
    Can anyone suggest me on this...!
    Thanks,
    Vijay

    1. Content administation > Portal Content > Content Provided by SAP >
    End User Content > Employee Self-Service > iviews
    2. Click 'Preview' on required iview
    3. Click Ctrl + Right mouse to personalize the UI elements
    Both Weekly and Daily views have to co-exist for the application to work
    correctly.
    So probably its not going to work, Try it

  • Timesheet error when clicking on details in the daily view

    Hi Everyone,
    We just applied the new Pack EHP4 and update our ESS portal accordingly. But in timesheet are getting an error we haven't encountered before. When going to timesheet (record time app) and clicking on the daily view you either get a new screen if you do it correctly or an error message saying Select a Filled row to change to the detail view.
    In the upgraded system that last error message does not come up. Instead it crashes and give this error:

  • ESS CATS - Hide weekly view

    Hi,
    We are on ERP 2005, ESS BP 1.0. The ESS CATS has 2 views weekly and daily.
    Is it possible to hide/disable either of them.. for example for a certain group of employees only the daily view should be shown and weekly view should be hidden/disabled.  I tried controlling this with the properties in data entry profiles.
    It does not work and it gives errors.
    Thanks,
    Mark.

    Mark,
    This is completely a front end thing. Not a back end configuration as far as my knowledge goes. You will have to work through the ess~cats DC and make the required modification through NWDI. I have done a decent amount of work on this DC though not specifically on ur requirement. Let me know if you require any more inputs on this

  • Enabling "Daily View" on Record Working Time iView

    HI,
    You need to implement BADI for this ..
    BADI name : "PT_ABS_REQ"
    In the BADI "PT_ABS_REQ" interface "IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ" you can find the method
    "SET_CALENDAR_COLOR" in that you can set the colure for the Absent type ......
    Adjust Colors of Calendar and Team Calendar
    Functionality
    You can use this method to change the colors in the team calendar.
    In the standard system, the different statuses for requests have different colors. You can use this method to differentiate the colors of requests depending on the following aspects:
    Status of requests (status)
    Action that an employee has executed: new request, delete, change (UIA operation)
    Subtype of absence (SUBTY)
    Full-day or partial-day absence (BEGMT, where BEGMT = 0 signifies a full-day absence)
    Application mode ( mode). You specify the application mode in the Select Employees for the Team Calendar IMG activity.
    Color Display of Status of Leave Requests(COLORS_ACTIVE). You specify this status in the Specify How Leave Is Displayed and Default Values IMG activity.
    Available Colors
    You have a choice of 16 colors. The 16 colors are hard coded, that is, you cannot change them or add other ones.
    The available colors are stored with their RGB value as constants of the CL_PT_REQ_CONST class. Use these constants if you want to change the colors.
    Notes
    If you change the colors in the team calendar, you should also adapt the legend accordingly. You can use the Adjust Legend for Calendar and Team Calendar method to do so.
    Hope this work!!!

  • Addig a new row in a table in Ess/cats

    Hello all,
    I am working on Ess/cats application.
    By default it is displying me 8 rows.I have to put a button to add a new row in the table.
    but i could not find a way to add a new row.
    Thanks and Regards.

    Hi,
    In the onAction of button Add one more element in node which is bounded to the table. You can use following code.
    public void onActionAddRow(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
        //@@begin onActionAddRow(ServerEvent)
           IWDNodeElement element = wdContext.node<Node_Name>().create<Node_Name>Element();" Here Node_Name is the name of node which is bounded to your table.
           wdContext.node<Node_Name>().addElement(element);
        //@@end
    I hope it helps.

  • Change of tabs ess~cat/CatDataRecord - VcCatRecordEntryView

    Hi
    I have an issue regarding changing the sequence of the Tabs in the ESS application ess~cat/CatDataRecord.
    I have managed to get the view for Day to be presented before Week, but the table for day are not loaded directly when launching the application in the portal. Instead I have to select the Week entry and then back to Day to be able to register my time.
    I think it has something to do vith the VcCatTableDay and some onload issues.
    If solved - 10 points is given:)

  • Throw a custom error message while doing CATS timesheet approval

    Hi,
    We are going to implement CATS Timesheet approval using ESS / MSS portal.
    Requirement is NOT to allow an approver to approve / reject a timesheet workitem in MSS duing payroll block period ( e.g last week of a month). we need to throw an error message saying 'No approval of timesheet is allowed during payroll block period'.
    Will SAP enhancement CATS0006 (EXIT_SAPLCATS_006) be useful for this?
    Any other customer exit / Badi will help.
