ESS Employment Verification

Hello,
We have deployed standard ESS Business Pack ...when I try to run the Employment Verification service under Benefits and Payment I get the following error:
You are not one of the possible agents of task WS01000045
Please help.

Well If you can see via SWDD_CONFIG you would also be able to see via PFTC. you need to go in PFTC for making this as general task. why dont you talk to your basis about this?
Any ways why dont you make your own workflow template by copying standard one. I can give you some inputs.. like where Portal is calling this workflow template.
Go to SE37 and enter this FM: HRXSS_US_EMPSAL_WORKFLOW_START
this FM is responsible for calling WF WS01000045.
inside this FM you will find peform init_wf_binding go inside this perform and you will see hard coded name and no. .
All you have to do is to create your own template, create your own FM based on above FM, insert your workflow template no. Only you need to talk to your portal/java person/developer who can attach your FM at the place of standard FM.
Have fun.
Cheers
Jai

Workflow error when submitting Employment Verification Letter in ESS Portal

in ESS Portal, when trying to send the employment verification letter by mail I get a workflow error in ECC. Error occurs in workflow template WS01000045 (Employment and Salary Verification) task TS00408262 (PF: Find basic pay). The employee submitting the verification letter request is an active employee, has infotype 105 data in the system, and has basic pay data in the system.
workflow log (SWI1) shows the "Basic Pay" object available and when double clicking on the object, it brings me to PA20 where I can see the Basic Pay infotype with correct data.
Can someone help?
note: the employee is Canadian, in case this matters.

Have you created the resposibilities for the rule 60100010 becuase if you observe the rule it will determine the agents by using the category Agent Determination: Reponsibilities so i think you missed to create responsibilities
for creating responsibilities [check|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/ef/3dc9469bbe11d189470000e8216659/content.htm]
Also check that if Rule fails to determine the agents correctly then how can you [handle|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/7f/aed54c9c8d11d1894c0000e8216659/content.htm]

Salary and Employment Verification - UWL issue.

Hi All,
We have deployed ESS 1.41, MSS 1.41 and HRAS 1.41 business packages on Portal EP7.0 EHP1 SP7
When an Employee request for Salary and Employment Verification Letter by going thru ESS-> Benefits and Payament->Salary and Employment Verification, a workflow (std workflow WS01000045) is triggered and the task sits in inbox of HR Administrator. Task id is TS1000076. Now when we HR Admin open the workitem from R/3 inbox, it opens up a dialog box for printing the document.(PDF Form)
But these tasks are not visible under HR Administrators UWL iView in Portal. I have already checked the workflow system creation and its fine. For getting the tasks we need to maintain the task TS1000076 in SWFVISU. But we are not aware about what should be Type (JAVA webdynpro, ABAP Webdynpro, BSP etc.) and Visualization Parameters.
Could anyone guide me on these parameters and if any changes in XML config for UWL.

Salary and Employment Verification in HR Administration UWL

Hi Amol,
Configuring this in SWFVISU will help with the creation of the xml file telling the task how to launch and what to launch with: See the following help documentation:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/2c/05b15de3864040a9426788a12699b3/content.htm -
This is the documentation for action handlers.
Universal Worklist action handlers enable you to customize how a SAP Business Workflow work item is launched. So you will need to check too with the workflow specialist in your organization, but my guess would be that you would launch it with the Abap webdynpro launcher. By defining this in SWFVISU, when you press the reregister button on the webflow connector in the Universal Worklist administration, it generates the xml file and puts a definition in the file for launching the task.

Hello Experts,
I have done little modification to ESV application in ESS.
The send mail, I have customised it to print from dekstop where the details are loaded into adobe form. The functionality wise it works fine. But, it throws java.sql.SQLException: Closed Connection in the second step.
In detail,
On employment verification Iview
(selection) >>>>(review & send)>>>>> ( completed)
When try to move to the review and send screen for the first time it throws me java.sql.SQLException: Closed Connection on the screen.
But if you come to previous step and try again it doesnt thro wnay exception.
Even when it throws the excepiton. I am able to print my ESV, the functionality wise it works fine.
Did anyone see such behaviour before in any other Iview?
Let me know if you have any suggestions.
Thanks,
Raj

You can do easily via Self service Administrator and setting the property of Review screen as True
ie it will be skipped

ESS: Employment and Salary Verification

hi people,
im trying to customize the ess iview "Employment and Salary Verification". but im not really sure how this thing should work. the employee enters "Communication type" (fax or mail) and then he enters either fax-no. or adress.
now what should happen? where does this request go to? should sap automaticly send a fax or an e-mail (via sap-connect, scot, etc.) or should there be a pdf which the employee can send him self?
sorry, i cant find the customizing for this (only hrforms etc.). and the onlinehelp dosnt help me either.
regards ricky

Appreciate all your help RajK. I've used the transaction PFTC to make task TS01000076 as general task and genreated the task. Still I'm getting the same error message You are not one of the possible agents of the task".
What else I'm missing.
Thank you

Employment Verification in ess~us DC

Hello,
We have a request to make this service available to CA. Currently, it is only available to the US. We have stripped out the code from the ess~us DC and created a new DC w/ just the ESV. We created a new function module on the backend that mimics the US one, burt checks for CA specific items such as postal code, etc.
We imported the new model and configured all of the code in the DC, but the inital page is coming up with greyed out text and the FPM along the top also does not look right. At first glance, it looks like data is not binded correctly, but that has all been checked and everything is binded correctly.
Has anyone ever worked with or done a similar exercise w/ this DC?
Thanks in advance!!

i think you cannot copy the copding of sap objetcs, try to copy manually to the CA, or else use comparison tool to compare both the DC's, when you copy any DC that will loose the usage dependencies, check the dependency \,
May be it will work,
Cheers,
Apparao

Employment Verification

Can somebody tell me how this "Employement Verification"serivce under the "benefits and Payment" workset, works.
I heard that if the employee selects the option "send by fax" it directly goes to the recipient i.e to the fax number, which the employee provides in the intial screen.
My question is "how will the recipient know the information is genuine?". will the data be sent on company's letter head or something like that.In which format will the recipient see the data?

I have been through this service in great detail. Sooooo what happens is...
The service/application kicks off a standard workflow WS01000045. You "can" implement a BADI (HRPADUS_EMPSAL_0001) per note 0001146756 to use your own workflow, however you don't have to get to fancy with this.
The standard workflow simply collects all the Employee's information. It then looks at their option....mail or print....and routes it accordingly.
The DEFAULT agent determination is set to route this to the Employee's HR Admin who will either print and "snail" mail the form or fax it per a workflow task for them.
Behind the scenes, all that is being done is the information that is collected for the employee is merged into a "standard text" called HR_SALARY_EMPLOYMENTVERIFICATION (which resides in client000 but you may copy as a Z-version and modify as you like). In that standard text are several "placeholders" which happen to match the name of context nodes for that task that hold all the employee collected data. The methods of the task simply act based on the communication type chosen...REPLACEANDSEND (ie fax) or REPLACEANDPRINT(ie. print/mail).....they replace all occurcences of the "placeholders" with the actual context values. Pretty simpl. THIS is where the "form" actually is that many people get hung up looking for.
Now, as said, the standard workflow puts these as items for the HR Admin. However, you can do some things here (and these are noted in the documentation for this service).
1. You could change the "agent determination" to be "user" for the "print"/mail option....this would pass the item to the employee and allow them to print the form themselves (however, this leaves it open for manipulation as well)
2. You can set the TASK for the fax step to be a "background process". This will make it fax AUTOMATICALLY without the HR Admin's interaction.
Hope this helps. Trying to finish info on some of these old posts! =)

Search employment verification database by first and last name

hi
can anyone please tell me from which info types do i have to get the data???
this is in compensation management
thanks
sateesh

Sateesh,
I am assuming that you are trying to build a search help using SSN (surprised), first name and last name.
I believe for this you can just use infotyypes 2 or 3. i dont what field in those infotypes your company is using to store SSN.
I dont think you need to use any other ifoctypes like 267 etc.
Thanks,

W-4 tax wothholding service available in ESS.

Hi All
What are the prequisite config steps we need to carry out in back end R/3 for makig W-4 tax wothholding service available in ESS. I am not finding ay thing in the 'service specific settings ' of IMG in ESS for this area.
Is there any confg required to be carried out in application area also ?
Can some body please suggest. We are on ECC 5.0
Thanks
Srinivas

Hi Sharada
Thanks for your reply.
As regards the home page design I think we are going with SAP stanadard and all other links in the Benefits & paymants area like salary staement , total comp statement, employment verification, W-2 reprint etc. work fine.
There is a link for W-4 as well but when we get on to the link we do not get the W-4 opened up. You had mentioned that we need to create a iView and page and add to the ESS role. I thought SAP provides standard iView for this functionality. Or is it that for ECC 5.0 SAP's iView is not available. Can you please throw some more light on this ?
Thanks
Srinivas

Workflow error when sending Verification Letter request by mail

in ESS Portal, when trying to send the employment verification letter by mail I get a workflow error in ECC. Error occurs in workflow template WS01000045 (Employment and Salary Verification) task TS00408262 (PF: Find basic pay). The employee submitting the verification letter request is an active employee, has infotype 105 data in the system, and has basic pay data in the system.
workflow log (SWI1) shows the "Basic Pay" object available and when double clicking on the object, it brings me to PA20 where I can see the Basic Pay infotype with correct data.
Can someone help?
note: the employee is Canadian, in case this matters.

Once you are satisfied that the origin is satisfactory it is best to select the option worded something like - always accept from this site.
In my experience it is always more reliable to use the SMTP server which matches your From name. The one exception is running your own SMTP server on a fixed IP.
Check that your Mail SMTP settings have the correct, name, password, security and port.

Don't believe the employment discount

I just renewed a contract with Verizon and was informed by 'Ahley' via online chat my employment discount would be 25% and would have to be activated after I received my device. I have it in writing! I chose Verizon over AT&T based on this information but when I went to employment verification and entered the information, I was informed it was only 15%!?!? When I called customer service, I was told "oops, that information was wrong. Our max discount is only 22% and yours should only be 15%." What a joke- telling customers one thing to get them to sign up and THEN changing the information is a deplorable business practice. BEWARE
<< Edited to remove proprietary information >>

If you have an work email address that indicates your job with an qualifying organization (for instance, a school district or public agency) the discount is applied immediately when you submit and confirm your email address via http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/support/employee-discount-email If the specific email address is not recognized as being eligible for a discount, then you need to submit documentation and it does take one or two billing cycles to be applied. My son's discount was evident on his second bill; he does not have a work email and had to submit a current pay stub, and the discount was applied from his second bill onward.

Employment discount.. I think not!

Where can I find the written policy where it says I cannot have my employment discount if I have a discount from a high plan in more everything? I'm sick of the misinformation from customer care reps 5 said I could use both discounts 2 said I couldn't . Weeks later and hours on the phone I'm being told out of contract I can't use the discount.... Where's the policy on my end that I can read that, the employment verification department said the denied my discount but cannot send me the policy where I'm in violation. This is the hardest time I've Had with a cell phone company.

lewisr13 is correct, the Edge discount of $10/$25 is available even with employer discounts. The month-to-month discount of equivalent value is also available even with employer discounts.
I know exactly what policies pertain to my situation.
If you are attempting to add an Edge discount and are not currently on an Edge plan, you will not be able to do so.
If you want to add a month-to-month discount to a smartphone line access fee to an eligible line, you can do so simply by logging into your MyVerizon, navigating to "Change Features" and selecting that feature to add. Of course, Verizon can change its policies at any time and you could lose your month-to-month discount at any time. Additionally, once you get the discount, it does not necessarily go on for ever. Your eligibility for the discount can change. If you were to purchase a subsidized phone, your discount would fall off immediately.
The month-to-month discount is not advertised, nor will many Verizon reps either acknowledge or are aware of it.
