ESS Error in EP for Working time -- Leave Request.

Hi,
We are on ESS 600 and EP 7.0. We have configured for the leave request and hence using the standard one. We are able to see the process succesully till steps as followed:-
1) Employee can apply to leave from ESS on EP.
2) Approver gets mail in the UWL.
3) Approver can Accept the leave.
4) We run the program to Post the leave.
5) Leave gets updated in infotype 2001.
6) We run program to send mail.
But the employee doesnt get any mail of approval from the approver in his UWL on EP. Any thing needs to be done to make this whole process successful. Kindly let me know.
Also kindly let me know whether the above steps are right and how do we make it automatic without any manual intervention. We need to schedule the jobs, if i am not wrong, but what programs need to be run at what time do let me know.
Thanks and regards,
Gaurav J.

Hi Gaurav,
The mails will be sent to the user's mail box. If you want it to appear in UWL, you need to set uo the SONIC connector. By default, UWL only reads workitem tasks. If you install SONIC, then this connector will enable UWL to read the sap r3 inbox as well.
You can go this link https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/8525afd0-0d01-0010-aaa0-ac6b9e3a2907. You can try searching for SONIC in sdn forums also.
If you want to send mailos to external mail id's then configure SCOT and SOST.
Hope I am clear.
Regards
Reshma

Go to:
IMG > Personnel Management > Employee Self-Service (Web Dynpro ABAP) > Service-Specific Settings > Working Time > Leave Request > Processing Processes > Define Processing Processes for Each Rule Group
Select your Rule Group
Under Record Partial-Day Absences in you have three options: Hours and Clock Times / Hours / Clock Times
You should select Hours and save the record.
With this, you will only have the duration and clock times will not be displayed.

ESS & MSS - CATS regular/Record Working Time (Web Dynpro)

Hello,
SAP Library help (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/ef/e18d3f7057eb0ce10000000a114084/frameset.htm) says the following:
Compared with CATS classic, the following constraints exist for this Web application:
Since CATS regular is an Employee Self-Service application, time administrators or data entry personnel cannot recording working time data.
Is there any workaround to solve it? I mean, we need to recording working time data centrally through ESS or MSS. That's possible? Any enhacement for that? No matter where to do it (ESS or MSS).
Thanks!
Miguel Angel.

Hi Jigar,
That's almost exactly the requirement we need to implement!
Basically we need:
a. The employees with computer will record their own working times via ESS
b. For the employees without computer, their working times will be recorded via MSS by:
1. their org unit superior OR
2. someone like a time administrator defined in a custom list containing "employees for the time administrator".
I mean, someone called "time administrator" will record working time for a determined numbers of employees, but this "time administrator" is not the org unit superior. It's possible?? This is the mostly case.
Other requirements:
- Default time sheets and target hours for employees (for each employee the corresponding time sheet and target hours)
Thanks!!
Miguel Angel.

Wrong agent picked if manager not maintained for employee in leave request

Hi All
We are using std. workflow WS12300111 for leave request approval which is run from the EP side.
It is working all fine, but the problem arises when there is no manager maintained for an employee. Idealy it should have given a error message; but here the workflow runs and the agent is the manager of the previous leave request.
Is there any setting that is missing anywhere? Or there is someother reason that I can't forsee?
Please help me out in this

Hi Varsha,
who the agent is getting selected for that step of wrkflow.... r they using any rule or they are referring and org structure..
if they are referring org structure then it will take the next line manager of that employee...
so if the picking agent is next line manager then it is working fine .............

Preblem for Approver in Leave request

Hi All,
 Well i am facing a problem in Create leave Request For the Approver that is selected by default based on the organisation head.I don't now how it happens but thing that i noticed thta for an employee if i maintain a head position in the org it picks up that head position of org as default.
My consulatant want this value to be picked up as we require i.e fetch a particular employee through coding on the screen itself and default on the screen.Can this be done else if any body can provide any better alternative for this solution is most welcomed.
Well we can actually send or sellect the approver what he wants but what about the approver that comes as default on screen and if there is no approver workflow will not be triggered as it gives the error
Please reply soon.

1) go to swdd tcode,give workflow name and then click on step which finds out the approver of the employee.u will find FM which is finding approver.
now u can go an change the FM in SE37 and put ur own logic to find the approver.
suppose u want to find approver by A002 relationship of employee then u have to write followign code in the concerned FM -
DATA: ls_sobid TYPE sobid.
SELECT SINGLE sobid FROM hrp1001 INTO ls_sobid
 WHERE otype = 'S'
 and plvar = '01'
 AND objid = i_plans
 AND endda >= sy-datum
 AND begda <= sy-datum
 AND rsign = 'A'
 AND relat = '002'.
e_objid = ls_sobid.
2) if not by A002 then u can create a new relationship say 'ZTV' and maintain this relationship for employees and find approver based on tht then as follows -
SELECT SINGLE sobid FROM hrp1001 INTO ls_sobid
 WHERE otype = 'S'
 and plvar = '01'
 AND objid = i_plans
 AND endda >= sy-datum
 AND begda <= sy-datum
 AND rsign = 'A'
 AND relat = 'ZTV'.
e_objid = ls_sobid.
3) reward poins if helpfull

How to configure and test workflow for Creating a leave Request?

Hi,
When I select leave request iView I get an R/3 screen titled "Create Leave Request".And when I fill in the details for approver and press send I get this error message "You are not one of the possible agents of the task".
So help required to configure and test the workflow behind Create leave request iView.
Regards,
Pavanmeet.

Pavanmeet,
you have to set all activities in the workflow to "general task" as well, not only for WS12300111 itself (doubleclick on each symbol with the "triangle").
check the status of the sent leave request in transaction PTARQ (Display Documents). Here the "next agent" & the "pers. no" of the next agent is of interest.
logon with the user, that is saved in infotype 0105 of the above mentioned pers.no. there should be the approve request.
you can check the status of the workitems with SWI1 (i assume your system is prepared for workflows , check SWU3)

Approval view for working time empty fields 'message' and 'standard time'

Hi experts,
We want to use the SAP-standard program to approve working hours in the Portal. The basic settings are all done, but we still have a problem with some fields.
When we use the SAP-standard approval view SAP_LINE (IMG --> Define approval views) and we go to the portal we see that the fields 'message' and 'standard time' are filled and the hours with a warning are red. When we create an exact copy of view SAP_LINE with the same detailscreen selections, the fields 'message' and 'standard time' are empty and the warning does not turn red.
See the print screen below for an example.

Hi,
We have found the place to change this fields.

Need Extra Validation for Attachments in Leave Requests

Hi All,
We intend to validate whether a user requesting for leave (ex.: Sick Leave) using SSHR has attached any documents or not (in case the request is for more than 5 days).
Can someone please help me out with this? I tried to do this by using 'User Hooks' but the hooks that I have used so far (create_absence_entry BP, per_absence_attendances RH) validate the data on the absence entry page itself (i.e. even before the review page where files are attached is reached).
Is there any user hook available on the review page in SSHR? Or, is there any alternative to this method?

Hi,
If so your Message Flow is -
RFC->XI->Http->RFC(R/3)->File
After getting the response you need to send the Response back to the R/3 and same time the response should be sent to File system. Now you can go for BPM here.
This blog will give you some idea-
/people/arpit.seth/blog/2005/06/27/rfc-scenario-using-bpm--starter-kit
So your BPM will contain these steps-
1) Receive the RFC Request
2) Send the RFC request Synchronoulsy
3) Recieved Response will be mapped to the file system structure
4) send the Mapped file structure
Asumption is Mapping i.e Request to Http Request and Http Response to RFC response is done outside the BPM.
Hope this helps,
regards,
Moorthy

Link for ESS leave request?

Hi,
Can some one tell me how to display Ess leave request form ( THR10_1, Lesson Time Data figure 74)
Ejaz

Hello,
It's not a form, it's an Iview. You can access the Iview in 2 ways:
1. Via Content administrator, on the following path:
Portal Content
Content Provided by SAP
End User Content
Employee Self-Service
iViews
Working Time
Leave Request
2. Via Portal Directly, on Links:
ESS -> Working Time -> Submit Leave Request
(opc). Or via the Service directly. But this is only used for testing purposes. You can access the service via the following url:
http://HOST:PORT/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/ess~lea/LeaveRequest

Bentow.
