ESS Leave Request - Custom validations

Hello all,
As I understand SAP does not perform any custom validations (which we might have coded within the PBAS0001 enhancement OR the HRPAD00INFTY business add in) when requesting a absence from ESS~LEA leave request iView from the portal.
Hence to validate the absence record, I attempted to insert the HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION function module and run it in CHK operation mode to validate the data in the PT_GEN_REQ~START_WF business add in method.
If the validation fails I return RETURN_CODE as non-zero from the business addin. However I keep getting a dump as a result.
Can anyone advice if this has been tried successfully and any alternate if @ all?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Aditya

You can easily to do so with badi pt_abs_req or pt_gen_req
you can call exits in badi, read here the steps

Error after second level approval in ESS leave request

Hi Experts
I am using custom workflow for Ess Leave request process which is copied from WS21500001.
I have added custom class methods to change status from approved to sent.
Then another method i have set next appovaer.
The problem i m facing is that I am getting an error on portal after second approval approves the request.
i.e Field syomol has not been assigned yet.
from st22 i found its generating from
Include LPT_ARQ_REQUEST_UIAF06 - Form   execute_approver_update
By debugging i found that Its not getting next approval with status T as there is only first approval with status 'A'
This results in unassigned field symbol. and then error.
Please help me resolve this issue.
Please confirm why next approver is not found in method.

Hi All
Thanks for your reply.
I checked why it was giving a dump.
This execute_approver_update subroutine takes approval data from table ptreq_approver .
I filled this with resp actor id after request is approved and status is changed to sent.
For every emp its unique actor id is saved in ptreq_actor table agaist his pernr.
   SELECT SINGLE actor_id FROM PTREQ_ACTOR INTO actor_id WHERE objid = nextApprover_pernr.
    wa_appr-mandt = sy-mandt.
    wa_appr-request_id = Request_ID. "Req.requestID ( from Workflow )
    wa_appr-version_no = version_no. "Req.Version ( from Workflow )
    wa_appr-seqnr = seqnr. "Same as version no but in char
    wa_appr-approver_ins = actor_id. "Employee actor id from ptreq_actor
    wa_appr-status = 'T'. "Manual
    append wa_appr to it_appr.
    INSERT PTREQ_APPROVER FROM TABLE it_appr .
    commit work and wait.
This resolved my issue.
Thanks

ESS Leave Request - Customer fields default function not working

Hi,
a. SAP version being discussed
SAP ECC6.0
EP7.0
ESS/MSS
b. Here is the scenario
1. We are using ESS Leave Request application for employees to request leave. We are using the standard web dynpro java leave request application delivered by SAP.
2. Lately there has been a need to provide a customer field on the request form which will have a calculated value showing up when the employee opens the request
3.We used one customer field called customer01 as per configuration steps.
4. This field appears on the request form when it is opened.
5. Our need is to display a value in that field when the form is opened.
6. SAP/s documentation states that we can use BADI PT_ABS_ARQ to default a value to this field on the form. This value is calculated during runtime dynamically.
7. We have used the method IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ~SIMULATE_VIA_BLOP for this purpose
8. After activating and coding this implementation, the system does not default anything on the request form when it is opened up.
9. Once the employee hits the review button, this field gets its defaulted value but this is not what we want. We want the system to display this when the form is OPENED, that means at the prepare stage. For this field to appear after hitting the review button is meaningless as the employee needs to make a decision based on the value in this field before hitting the review button.
It almost seems like this BADI is called when the review button is hit and not when the form is opened up. We may be wrong and missing something obvious which one of you can immediately point out, Hence this post.
10. I did go thru the forum at great length and seen that there has been discusion surrounding the need to populate R3 from a value entered into this field. My problem is different wherein, I wish to populate this upfront as display information when the form is opened and then send it back to R3, once the employee submits the request.
Would be grateful if anybody on this forum could point me in the right direction.
Thank you,
Rajesh

Please, can I take this question a little further.
Is it possible to add more fields to the leave request form on the ESS portal. For example, our customer wants additional fields like reason for leave, contact residential and telephone number during leave, Require leave entitlements (Yes/No).
Would appreciate if a reply can be given on if it is possible or not and what to be done if it is possible.
Cheers

ESS Leave request workflow : ws12300111 : Customizing

Dear experts,
I need to customoze ESS leave request workflow WS12300111.
Can you please tell me do I need to Copy this to a NEW workflow generating a new WF no or can I simply generate a new version for this only ? What is ideal ?
1. Can anyone tell me step by step process(config) in ESS leave application workflow?.(SWFVISU????)
2. Is workflow WS12300111, the only workflow that I need to look for leave application ?.
3. If it is WS12300111 I dont see any start event for this workflow. So how is it getting triggered?
4. For the approval task TS12300097, agent determination is done by expression &Agent_0001.Agents&. How does it interact with Org.Structure.
5. In my scenario, approver should be supervisor of the employee applying for leave. If it is pending with this approver for 5 days it should go to the next up level manager.
For identifying first level approver is &Agent_0001.Agents& enough.? For identifying 2nd level approval do I need to write a rule ?
Kindly help.

Hi Sourav,
Try this step by step process(config) in ESS leave application workflow.
ESS Scenario
Workflow Process 20000081 u2013 Create Leave Request with HTML
Steps for triggering the workflow:
1) The employee logs with his user name in the ESS web page.
2) The employee creates a leave request with an optional note and sends it to the appropriate approver (usually his supervisor). The approveru2019s name is automatically displayed in the leave request form and the employee can replace him with another if such a change is needed.
3) The approver (us approver) logs on to sap system or to ESS
web pages and reads his mails in the SAP Business Workplace. The employeeu2019s leave request form appears in the workflow inbox with approve and reject options.
A) If the us approver approves the leave request, he pushes the
button approve from his mailbox (processing status A with
approve). A screen is appeared with a box (Table entry: 0001)
and the approver must push the button continue in order that
the workflow is continued. Then the form is sent to the
employeeu2019s mailbox in Sap. When the employee opens his mails, he receives a note in his inbox that u201Cthe absence from u2026. To u2026..has been approved byu2026.u201D.After that the absence is
automatically created in the sap system. Then the approver gets a mail (notification of completion & Return u2026u2026).
B) When the approver cancels a leave request, he pushes the
button reject and the processing status changes to u201CRu201D.
Then the same form appears
Realative OSS Notes:588262, 480103, 717560, 452841, 359197, 321439, 428394, 321439, 693368, 451998 (ITS), 197746 (ITS), 419297 (ITS)
ITS - ESS stand-alone solution for 4.7
This solution allows customers to schedule the 4.6C or 470
install / upgrade independently from the Enterprise Portal or
mySAP Workplace implementation and will be supported at least as long as SAP R/3 4.6C and R/3 Enterprise is supported.
This ESS stand-alone menu is intended solely to allow independent scheduling of the 4.6C or 470 upgrade and the Enterprise Portal / mySAP Workplace installation. To use this solution, you have to take the following steps:
1. If you do not already have R/3 4.6C, HR support package 8,
please import HR support packages to at least this level. From
HR support package 8 and above, the correct services are
implemented. For 470, the corresponding recommended HR SP is 16 (See note 621589)
2. Verify that the ITS you want to use does not contain a service or service-related files (HTML templates, MIME files) for the services PZLE, PZM3 or PZM3_start. If you find these files,
delete them.
3. Publish the services PZLE, PZM3 and PZM3_start from your R/3 4.6C system (or R/3 470 system whichever is the case) to your ITS using the SAP@Web Studio or the IACOR service.
4. Maintain the username-employeenumber assignment in your system by customizing Infotype 0105, Subtype 0001 of those employees, who should be able to use ESS.
5. Verify that your users have proper authorizations for
executing RFCs (that is, authorization object S_RFC) from the
function group EH08. If you run into problems, this is most
likely due to missing RFC authorizations to start the service
PZM3.
6. Your users should now be able to access ESS by starting the service PZM3. They can do this by entering a URL like
http://<ITS server>:<http port>/scripts/wgate/pzm3/!
(the ! at the end is essential).
7. ESS 4.70 Unicode System ITS 6.10 patch level 29 and above (With IE and Netscape). ITS 6.20, patch level 6 and above (With IE only).
The ESS development tested these ITS versions.
8. For Release 4.6C, ESS has the same browser requirements as the HTML (see also note 178788) and the mySAP Workplace 2.11 (if ESS is accessed through the mySAP Workplace 2.11).
Hope it helps.Do award points if found helpful.

Issue with ESS Leave request workflow - Deleting a leave request

Hi friends,
This is my scenario: An employee has created a leave request from ESS - Leave Request Workflow(Copy of WS12300111) gets triggered and work item gets created in manager's UWL. After that the employee realizes he has created a wrong leave request so he deletes that leave request from ESS. In this case the workflow instance which got triggered when he created the leave request is under process and the work item stays in the Manager's UWL( there is no terminating event or wait for event step in the approval step of workflow WS12300111), when the Manger opens that work item it shows a blank column, ideally speaking when the leave request is deleted by the employee the work item in the manger's UWL should be logically deleted and the workflow should complete, but this part is not handled in the standard workflow WS12300111as well. How to handle this case. I can put a wait for event or a condition to complete a work item at the approval step but i would like to know how the standard ESS leave request framework works in this case. Please advice.

Hi sapient
This is not handled in std. You have clear the next processor in your in method then only the work item will get vanished from the UWL. For clearting the next processor either you can create a method in your BOR and get the request id. For the request id get the max version and clear the next processor or in the BADI you have wirte your own logic when the change happens what you have to do. This logic has to be written in you BADI. I thing BADI will start with PT_ check with that name in se18
You cannot use wait for event or terminating event since its not R/3 workflow its ESS workflow you cannot use ternminating event or wait step.

Enhancement in ESS Leave Request

Hi Gurus,
I am new to webdynpro Java. I have a requirement to add a custom button in a Standard ESS leave request (Webdynpro Java) view. When i click the the button it has to call popview(not sure is it possible to call a webdynpro abap view). If possible explain me with step by step preocedures(with screen shots).
Thanks,
Mohammed

Hi,
          Good, you are now able to do modification in Standard ESS package. If you want to navigate to another WDABAP iView from your WDJAVA application, you can use the below code on some button or link action to navigate to another iView.
Check this link:-
http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04/current/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/clientserver/navigation/api/WDPortalNavigation.html
public void onActionnavigateToToAbapiView(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
    //@@begin onActionnavigateToAbapiView(ServerEvent)
     try
                    WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute(
                     "ROLES://portal_content/com.demo.DEMO_PCD/com.demo.ESS_SAP/com.demo.iview_ESS/demo.com.java_demo_com_demodc_demo_com_DemoApp",
                     WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_INPLACE,
                     "Window Title", WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.NO_DUPLICATIONS,
                     "Title",
                     "",//ContextURL
                     "param1=10&param2=portalID");
     catch (Exception e)
          e.printStackTrace();
You will find your WDAbap PCD location in Content Admin, copy it and repace PCD: with ROLES at start.
also you can pass parameters between 2-iViews, in the above code snippet you can find that.
the above code needs to be written in your source iView so as to navigate to destination iView which is mentioned using its PCD location.
to retrieve the parameters you need to check ABAP syntax to retrieve URL parameters.
In java we retreive using below syntax:-
String param1 = WDProtocolAdapter.getProtocolAdapter().getRequestObject().getParameter("param1");
String loginID = WDProtocolAdapter.getProtocolAdapter().getRequestObject().getParameter("param2");
to show it as a Pop-Up you need to find some work-around to achieve it, If i get time will do it and let you know, but if you find something for that do share.

Ess Leave Request -Change in Time calculation without changing work schedu

Hi All,
We are implementing a ESS Leave Request in EP6 with backend HR ECC5.0.
The time calculation is taken from the Work schedule rule in
HR backend which is 24*7.
For example if the leave taken is for 2 days-systems calculates as 24*2=48 hrs
but in actual the requirement is to calculate 2*8 =16 hrs without changing
the Work Schedule in 2001 infotype in HR Backend.
Can we do this change through
1.Validation in portal itself
2.Changing the RFC PT_ARQ_REQUEST_CHECK
3.Changing the Absence Types

Standard functionality of ESS Leave Request Details.

Hi Gurus,
Can anybody share the links of Standard functionality of ESS Leave Request Details..?
And,Is there any standard functionality in ESS Leave Requests that if a User raises a Leave Request and want to extend the leave...is there any rule that User First cancel the previous Leave Request and raise a New Leave Request .
Please explain briefly for the same.

You've all the customizing in SPRO > Personnel Management > Employee Self-Service > Service-Specific Settings > Working Time > Leave Request
You define:
1) A Rule with certain settings
2) Absences/Attendances to display in ESS, with certain settings, and its assignation to a Rule
3) A WF (commonly based on standard 12300111) --even you could not use a WF, check customizing
4) Run process (manually or not) for analyze, correct and delete or save the entries finally in SAP through PTARQ transaction
And,Is there any standard functionality in ESS Leave Requests that if a User raises a Leave Request and want to extend the leave...is there any rule that User First cancel the previous Leave Request and raise a New Leave Request .
The employee can be able to cancel the request even when attendance/absence was approved. You define this behaviour for each Absence/Attendance in customizing.

ESS leave request workflow -WS12300111

Hello Experts
I need to develop ESS leave request workflow by making copy from WS12300111. We are using SAP 4.7 and EP 6.0. And ESS and MSS is not yet deployed in EP.I tried to open this workflow in Workflow builder. Its saying that the task 12300111 does not exist. I have seen this workflow in ECC 6.0.
Is WS12300111 not available in SAP 4.7? or after deploying ESS,will it be available in SAP 4.7?
Please help me out...
Thanks&Regards,
Hemalatha

hi Hemalatha
I think in 4.7 you can't get that workflow. In ECC6 you can see the workflow. In EP you can't the visual see the workflow like that ECC6. i have developed multileve ESS workflow. take the copy of the standard workflow ws12300111 and do the customization according to your need. Check with the support pack with the portal and basis team. ESS will support only more that sp18 i guess. check with your basis team.

Problem with ESS Leave Request Workflow

We had configured ESS Leave request, which is working fine with Leave request approval.
1)     Cancellation of Leave Request using the workflow WS12400005.
                              Workflow is not getting triggered when we try to delete the leave request.
2)     Quota Overview
While displaying the Casual Leaves (CL) I need to deduct the Paternity leaves (PL) also.
     Remaining CLu2019s = quota CLu2019s u2013 ( used CLu2019s + used PLu2019s).

hi kishore. how did you resolve the issue of workflow not being triggered?
