ESS CATS User Exit

Hi ,
We are using ESS - Record Working Time service to track employee time.
We have used CATS user exits CATS0006. The standard ESS functionality calls this user exit on "check" , "save", "release" "refresh" actions on ESS screen. So the functionality in the user exit is executed multiple times and this does not work in our scenario.
Is a way to perform certain actions upon saving the time to the database from ESS ?? or how can I distinguish between "check" and "save" actions in the user exit.
Pat.

Hi Pat,
You may simply check SY-UCOMM to determine which action has generated the execution of your User Exit.
The value of this system variable will provide you the information of function that was called by the user.
Cheers,
Thierry Bodson.

ESS CATS user exit not triggered

Hi,
I am making some validations on the time sheet using enhancement cats0006, but that user exit is not triggered in the portal, in ESS.
I have my project activated through tr. CMOD, the user exit is triggered in R/3 using transaction CAT2.
What could be the reason ?
Thanks,
Stefan

CATS User exit Question

Hi Guys,
I have two custom fields in my CATS time sheet called Zclock1 and Zclock2. For a record that already exists I need to pre-populate these fields when I open the time sheet for an employee using CAT2, Which user-exit should I use?
I tried CAT0002 but this one will trigger only at the time of creating a new record or modifying an existing record.
Thanks,
Roy

hi Avisek Bhardwaj,
i want to change the data when i use CAT7 to transfer data to CO, before CO document created i must delete some dummy WBS element in a certain user-exit, so i need to find this user-exit to process the data,
i've checked the enhancement CATS0002, but it isn't what i want,
i've found one user exit PCA00001--EXIT_SAPLPC02_001(EC-PCA: Changes to Document when Transferring CO Actual Data)
i do delete dummy wbs element in this user exit but when transferring is finished, i find that the dummy wbs element still appears in the co document. it looks like that user exit doesn't work.
i don't know why,
regards,

CATS user-exit

Hello,
We have added a custom field (say cust01) to the CAT2 transaction to enter working time and it works fine. However, when absences are entered, we would like to have this cust01 values at the staging table. But based on certain situation we do not want it to be transferred to the time infotype.
Is there any user-exit to analyze the data in staging tables like PTEX... and decide what needs to be transferred to the infotypes.
Thanks in advance for all your information.

ESS Pa30 user exit

Hi All,
I am new to Portal and ESS but need to duplicate a user exit we have on PA30..
I.e. we have an exit that catches when a users benefits are updated and loads a custom table, as well as a few other things, i was hoping the when this info was updated on ESS that it would fire the same exit, but it does not it is directly getting updated without trapping the user exit.
So thoughts on what exit ESS calls when you update PA30 info?
Thanks!
-Jason

i did try implementing that badi, as well as HRPAD00INFTYBL
but i am finding that they only catch on the review and modify step, not the save step.. i may be using the wrong method, but i don't think so.

User-Exit CATS0005

Hello,
Could someone please provide sample code for CATS user-exit components
EXIT_SAPLCATS_005 and EXIT_SAPLCATS_008. I have added a field ZZFIELD1 on CATS screen but it is not transferring the data to infotype 2002.
Thank you in advanvance for all your assistance.
saplover

the fields are visible in catsdb
in spro you can add the CI_CATSDB fields to the workarea or with tcode CAC2
and the fields are also visible in the structures that are passed to and from the user exits
but I don't have you're user exit implemented here so I can't check it
kind regards

User-exit ESS / MSS

Hi all,
first of all, I'm not quite sure if this is the right forum, but I'll give it a try anyway. When using ESS / MSS Web Dynpro for entering hours in CATS it seems that none of the user exits, which were created for entering hours in CATS via SAP GUI, are 'used'.
Do we have to do some additional settings, or is this a WD problem in general, or......?
Kind regards,
Micky.

User Exit/Badi for CATS

Hi Experts,
Our requirement is to trigger an email notification to the Employee after his time sheet is approved using the CATS approval WF.
We are using the portal to raise the time sheet and approve the same. We want to determine a User Exit/ Badi when the approver clicks on the approved button in the UWL.
We tried looking into the user exits/badi's etc. given but they are defined only for the R/3 system using the CATS transaction and not via the portals.
Could you kindly guide us with any Badi/User Exit that could be used when it is approved via the portal (i.e) when the approver clicks on the approve button in the UWL.
Cheers,
Belinda Clarke

Hi,
Are you sure that those possible badis or user exit that you found are not also for Portal? Many times there is no difference whether something is done from backend transaction or a portal application - finally the same code/function is used and thus the same badis & user exits are executed. Of course not always, but plenty of times.
If if you cannot find anything, please check also the possibility to use enhancement. Check which RFC function is called during the approval (put RFC trace on) and put a break point there, and see what the code does and if you could put your stuff into some place.
Pay attention also the CATSDB table. That includes the cats entries and if remember correctly, you can find the work item ID there for each CATS entry. Maybe you can build some kind of report based on this table to send the emails instead of using some user exit or whatever.
Regards,
Karri

User exit CATS0003 on loading of record working time screen

Hi Experts
this is continuation to my last thread
ESS CA-TS Missing time sheet,
the requirements remains the same and I just need to confirm below thing
Does cats enhancement user exit CATS0003 will trigger initially at the time of loading the data entry page (record working time screen) in ess? so that before entering the time itself users will get to know that they need to fill previous weeks time before continuing,
experts pls confirm.
Jo

If you want the end user to know what attributes to save time on, Try to make use of template
or A worklist!
Other than this you can just use Default values from Cac1 and Infotype 0315, Just check the docs
on this
Also a simple cats0002 can be used to supplement the recorded data

ESS CATS

Hi all
I've got two problems.
1. In the ESS CATS (ESS 60.2) I should close the calendar. It has to be possible to open it when it is needed. Where Can I Do this? I allready searched in den CcCatRcordInterface but I didn't find any code where the state is set.
2. In the Weekview of the cats record part we should have to implement a from and a to time for the time recording. I allredy tried to insert columns and it works, but how can format the cells and how i put also the time data in the backend? Or is it posible to do this settings in teh backend?
We have Portal 2004 SP 17.
Thanks for a quick answer.
pascal

Hi Sofia
I sent an OSS to SAP. You can't customize it in the backend with Netweaver 2004. All possible user-Exits or BADI's are mostöy for Netweaver 200s Portal.
We also asked developers from SAP. the answer there is that is posible to modify the CATS but it is very complex. How to modify they did not say.
Sorry that I don't have a better answer.

User exit in CATS_APPR_LITE

When transaction CATS_APPR_LITE is executed, the selection is done on the whole population.
We want however to restrict the used population: when executing CATS_APPR_LITE, a Time Approver should only see the employees for whom he is allowed to approve time.
Our implementation proposal is to use a user exit in CATS_APPR_LITE that calls a custom z-table (maintained in a custom transaction) containing for every employee (PERNR) who are his time approvers (one time approver and two back-ups) for a certain period in time.
Our questions are:
- which user exit is there available in CATS_APPR_LITE to call this custom z-table?
- do you suggest a different method?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Vincent Mahy

Hi Vincent
There seems to no user exits to the transaction mentioned. But there is a BADI CATS_REPORTING which is getting triggered while executing the tcode mentioned. Below are some of the methods which could be implemented, please sit with a ABAPer and check which one best suits your requirement,

AT_SELECTION_SCREEN_OUTPUT     PBO for Selection Screen
