ESS-in-MSS options for ECC 5.0 / EP6.0

Hi,
We have ECC5.0 & EP6 SP15 and have implemented ESS & MSS. In the old business package, there were iviews for ESS in MSS but I can't find anything in the new one - for example, we used to have Time Statement (PZ04) as an ESS-in-MSS iview but I can't see how to do this with the new web dynpro version of Time Statement - can anyone help?
Many thanks
Jane

Jane,
unfortunately, it's not included in MSS for ECC5.0 anymore.

  • ESS / MSS Implementation for ECC 5.0 (ERP2004)

    Hello,
    We are preparing to implement ESS/MSS for ERP2004.  We are using EP6.0 SP9.  The notes for both ESS and MSS business packages refer to OSS Note 761266 regarding the versioning of XSS components.  Are the patches for the XSS components supposed to be deployed to the portal environment, the ERP2004 environment, or both?  The three patches mentioned are:
    PCUI_GP05_1.sca 
    ESS05_1.sca
    MSS05_1.sca
    Should these be installed in the portal, ERP2004, or both?
    Thanks,
    -Matt
    Since the patches are stored under the ERP2004folder in the support packages area of Service.SAP.com, I assumed they would be applied to the ERP environment, but I want to confirm this.

    Thanks for the clarification James.  I thought the patches should be applied to WebAS for the ERP2004 environment, but the OSS note is vague about that fact.
    Chuckie, We are implementing ESS version 60.2.  ECC 5.0 refers to Enterprise Central Component 5.0, which is how SAP refers to the Core R/3 product in the ERP2004 suite.

  • MessageBox on Adobe Form in MSS PCR for ECC 5.0

    Hello,
    I have a question regarding the behavior of Adobe form messagebox in MSS PCR.
    I tried to test how the messagebox looks like, and so I created a PCR scenario with an Adobe form. This form contains a datetime field. I added the script "xfd.host.messageBox("this is message", "this is title") to the "exit" event of the datetime field. Then I did all the necessary steps so that this PCR is displayed in the Portal.
    Now at the runtime, when I select a date value from the datetime field, the messagebox is displayed, BUT within an empty Adobe Reader page. It is not displayed on the top of my adobe form.
    But the strange thing is that when I use tab key to navigate through the datetime field, the messagebox is displayed on the top of my adobe form, without the empty Adobe Reader page.
    I also tried my script with several different event types, including "Change", and "Validate", it behaves the same way. But when I tried it with the event type "MouseExit", no empty Adobe reader page is shown up at all (of course, this is not the right event type for me)
    The environment is ECC 5.0, MSS business package for ECC 5.0, SAP Portal 7.0 (NW 2004s), Adobe LiveCycle 7.1
    Has anyone experienced this? I'd really appreciate any comments and suggestions. Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Harrison

    Antony,
    The Adobe Reader version is 8.1.1
    Just wondering if you used messageBox in interactive forms with ISR framework, and it worked well for you?
    Thanks.

  • ESS in MSS for ECC

    Hi,
    Has anyone created iViews for ESS in MSS based on the guide "Configuration Guide for ESS in MSS" that is available in service market place?? If so please help me. We are on EP6 SP14.
    Can anybody post the step by step procedure for this??
    Thanks

    hi,
    the configuration of ESS in MSS never was a good solution, because for running that scenario it was necessary to link ESS users to all pernr's. if not, ESS couldn't run, because the evaluation paths of HRORG couldn't run.

  • Configuration of ESS and MSS in Portal for HCM

    Hello Friend's,
            This is suresh calling for clarifications and doubts in HCM...   see i'm new to portal, but my requirement is to configure ESS and MSS for HCM... i dont know actually wat needs to be done and the way of approach... these are the doubts,
    1. Basic steps for Portal Configuration
    2.  I need some docs for configuring ESS and MSS...
    3.   a) After configuring ESS and MSS, wat needs to be done.. suppose my client is asking for Leave Request in ESS, whether    i  need to create that application in webdynpro java or webdynpro abap in backend and i've to call that application in portal throgh iview...
         b) or by doing the configuration of ESS, by default i will get all the aplications(e,g, Leave Request, Travel Managemetn ....) from that package and it will display in iview...
    I dont know basic steps .... plz help me ... Thanks i advance...........!

    Ok. Here are the answers:
    1. Basic steps for Portal Configuration
       > Download ESS/MSS Business Package, it has two parts Business Package for ERP 2005 (Contains iviews, Roles etc) and XSS 5.0 or 6.0 depending upon the version of the ECC.
      > Make sure that you have SAP_HR and EA_HR component installed on your ECC box.
      > Also make sure that there is no compatibility mismatch between version of SAP_HR, EA_HR and XSS.
      > Configure the JCo Destinations, create required system definition and establish SSO between ECC and Portal.
      > Assign the role to the users
    > After doing these steps you can see the SAP provided iviews etc working PROVIDED configuration on HR side are already done.  (This is just to get initial configuration work)
    2. I need some docs for configuring ESS and MSS...
    > Provided by Bala above
    3. a) After configuring ESS and MSS, wat needs to be done.. suppose my client is asking for Leave Request in ESS, whether i need to create that application in webdynpro java or webdynpro abap in backend and i've to call that application in portal throgh iview...
    > Look for that application in WebDynpro (identify the component from iView properties) and show it to the client.
    If they are Ok with the basic things then fine else they need to specify the kind of customisation they want in this component
    Options available if we need to modify the components
    >>Copy the component in your namespace and do the modification using NWDINWDS
    >>If some field need to be disabled, you can do the same using Self service administration.
    b) or by doing the configuration of ESS, by default i will get all the aplications(e,g, Leave Request, Travel Managemetn ....) from that package and it will display in iview...
    Hope this helps. ...

  • MSS Time Approval - multiple (different) selection options for manager?

    Hi all
    I am setting up MSS Time Approval delegation in ERP2005 without workflow, leave request, nor portal development environment set up.
    In this case, the customer needs to have multiple selection options for who to approve:
    1. The manager's direct reports (standard functionality)
    2. All subordinates, all levels down
    3. Delegate's (manager or non-manager) view of a particular (other) manager's direct reports
    3b. This might extend to a set of different delegation selections
    4. Add or remove certain individuals
    Now, getting 3. and 4. to work was simple using the BAdI (I think the enhancement spot is named APPR_CUST), method ...-edit_selection, but I am having difficulties with 2. and 3b. Now I am thinking along these lines, and I would greatly appreciate your input:
    A. It seems that the MSS "Approve working time" app only loads the data selection at the entry into this screen (INIT command from portal), using the start perspective determined for example by the IMG for defining the approval profile <-> view. My debugging suggests that the view change from the drop down menu (CHANGE_PERSPECTIVE command) only picks a different way to present the same data set.
    Could anybody please confirm or contradict this conclusion?
    B. Is it possible to present the entire "Approve working time" section in MSS in multiple different copies so that they would all generate an INIT command? Or is it possible to copy and modify the entire MSS tab, resulting in an ESS tab, one MSS, one "D"SS, one "A"SS (well, not suggesting that the top manager is one, but you get the drift...) and so on?
    If either of this were possible, it would be simple to make two modifications, one at the beginning of the FM called by the portal and one at the FM that returns the start perspective.
    So far I have been trying to catch and alter the CHANGE_PERSPECTIVE command into an INIT in the back end, but the Time Approval functionality is a bit too complex for me to feel entirely comfortable with this approach.
    Your input is much appreciated!
    Kind regards
    Niclas Arndt

    We too are using MSS for time approval of time entered via ESS.  We are on ECC 6.0 for the backend (no enhancement packs, at least not yet), currently sp stack 10 with hrsp 24, and EP 7.0 with stack 10 for the ESS/MSS business packages.  We are using the standard MSS UWL functionality for the approval, so it is workflow-based in my understanding.
    In other parts of MSS, the managers can see a few levels deep in the organization structure, based upon the definition we gave for their structural profiles.  For instance, in the team calendar/overview, or other team information, they have a choice for multiple levels or only direct reports.  However, in the time approval application, only direct reports are shown, so if a manager goes on vacation, at present the only way to cover time approvals for that manager's employees appears to be to temporarily assign a new 'chief' to that org unit, so HR involvement becomes necessary.  The manager doesn't have any method for delegating the approval or other MSS authorities.  We were hoping that by allowing multiple levels in the structural profile, such approvals would "roll up" to the next level, i.e. the manager's supervisor, so the next level manager could act as a backup to his/her managers on vacation.  That doesn't work, however.
    We have heard that a delegation feature for MSS will be available in an upcoming release, but I haven't found any information regarding whether that requires an upgrade, an enhancement pack, a later service pack level, or what or when that functionality will be available.  Does anyone know anything about that?

  • ESS/MSS applications from ECC 6.0 on a SL as ECC 5.0 + EP7.0

    Hi all,
    We have a "strange" situation on the client and I need you help or guidance.
    We are implementing Portal and ESS/MSS on a system landscape as ECC 5.0 for the back-end system and EP 7.0 as front-end.
    My problem is if the ESS/MSS iViews which have the data source as ECC 6.0 or higher are available and if yes how their behavior will be on such environment? We should expect errors or bugs or lousing functionalities or restrictions on it?
    Perhaps the first point will be if we can implement them? The client wants specific applications like time accounts or appraisals. I should mention to you the client has decided to make an upgrade of the back-end system to ECC 6.0 but is not decided yet when. In the meantime we already start the project for ESS/MSS base on the current system landscape.
    What do you think?
    Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Eugen

    I got my answer. You may implement XSS applications as for ECC 5 even on EP 7 but you'll face limitations in functionalities and face lots of tech issues and abnormal behavior from xss applications. Not the ideal system landscape.

  • ESS & MSS users in ECC 6.0  into portal

    Hi Experts
    How to get the  ESS & MSS users in ECC 6.0  into portal
    Thanks
    Daya

    Open the door and let them in. *grin*
    Not sure what you are really trying to ask. ESS and MSS are just grouped content in the portal itself. Your portal users will have portal ROLES assigned to them for ESS and/or MSS. These in turn will tie to backend security roles in ECC.
    Now, "where" your users come from will depend on your portal configuration...like setting them to be authorized via Active Directory, an SAP system, etc.
    Kinda like this....
    user->UME source->portal role(s)--->backend security role(s)

    Hi Experts
    How to get the  ESS & MSS users in ECC 6.0  into portal
    Thanks
    Daya

    Hi,
    You need to have SSO in between ECC and portal and use ABAP engine as your UME.
    then ECC users can directly login to portal using the same user id and password.
    Or you can create the ECC system in portal and user mapping should be done for every user to the ECC system.

  • Installing XSS (ESS and MSS) on EP 7 and ECC 5.0 (and ECC 6.0)

    Hello,
    I need to install XSS (ESS and MSS) on EP 7.0 SP9 and ECC 5.0 and also on ECC 6.0.
    I do NOT know what steps I need to perform (installations & configurations).
    Could anyone please help me ?
    Is the procedure different between ECC 5.0 and ECC 6.0 ?
    Please, help.
    Kind regards,
    Gil

    Hello Gil,
    1) As I wrote in my second posting, I think I installed the EP 7.0 correctly for XSS and the BP ERP for ERP2005.
    Where can I find what configurations I need to undertake and what patches I should install so the XSS and the BP will work correctly ? (that is besides getting error messages when using an XSS iView)
    <b>You need to install the foloowing Web Dynpro Components in ur J2EE server.
    PCI_GP
    MSS</b>
    2) If the projects decides NOT to upgrade to ERP 2005 BUT to stay with ERP 2004, do I need to install the EP 7.0 ALL over AGAIN ?
    If so, how do I install both the BP ERP 2004 and XSS on it in ONE installation (as I performed in for the BP ERP 2005) ?
    If NOT, how do I uninstall the BP ERP and XSS of the ERP 2005 and install those for ERP 2004 ? OR does the BP ERP 2005 support ERP 2004 as well ?
    <b>The pre-requiste for BP ERP2005 is a backend ERP2005. So it will not function with backend ERP 2004.
    You don't need to uninstall anything. Just download the Mysap ERP 2004 BP and do the necessary configuration to connect it to the BACKEND ERP 2004.This will solve the problem.
    You can find the configuration guides and other information abt the BP here.
