ESS/MSS customization

Hi,
We are planning customize ESS/MSS (version 600) on EP 7 SP9
we created new Track in NWDI as explained in the following blog
ESS/MSS Customization Make it Simple
Then we added software component ESS 600 and MSS 600 in our track and checked in
SAP-JEE 7.00, SAP_JTECHS 7.00, SAP_BUILDT 7.00, SAP_PCUI_GP 600 and SAP_ESS 600 file to track.
I could be able view source code in NWDS inactive dcs. But by creating a new project i got following error message
"some used DC's are not available locally. You have to sync used DC's for this project.
The point is that i couldn't able to view the software component SAP-JEE 7.00, SAP_JTECHS 7.00, SAP_BUILDT 7.00
and SAP_PCUI_GP 600 in active dcs.
Please suggest me.
Regards
Osman

ESS/MSS Customizations

HI ESS/MSS Gurus,
During our discussions with the client regarding the inherent features of the standard ESS/MSS functionalities, several points were raised, namely:
1. The cumbersome nature of data/request entry - basically they just want all the request filing to occur in one screen. No need to skip screens to review and validate the request
2. No record id to document the request -> they want a means for the user and manager to monitor and track requests using a standardized request numbering system. I believe that the standard solution for ESS/MSS does not have this one in place
3. Ability to extract reports of histories of requests raised (for the employee) and requests reviewed (for the manager)
In our opinion, these items will require heavy customization on both the portal and back end side. We are basically considering a custom table which will store these information and depending on the status of the requests, a request column will be updated with the corresponding values. The request approvals, notifications, and postings are also to be done via ABAP
In designing this solution, we came across some stumbling blocks, specifically on updating the personal and team calendars for leave requests and the employee's schedule for the clock in/out corrections. Hence, we want to check if any of you guys have had experience with customizing the ESS/MSS interfaces (specifically the leave and clock in/out application and approval), and if so, can you help us identify which tables are being updated/read when a leave or clock in/out is created and approved. We already checked the FMs attached to the portal application and the they call several methods and functions; i.e. is there a table/set of tables that you can point us to instead?
Your immediate response is highly appreciated.
Regards,

1. The cumbersome nature of data/request entry - basically they just want all the request filing to occur in one screen. No need to skip screens to review and validate the request
-- Depending on your version less than or equal to ehp5,.. this is true in versions less then ehp5. then ahain until ehp4 any forms that need implementation will need some element of development work so in your particular case the element of develpment could be a little higher to make them all use a single entry screen that gets submitted.
2. No record id to document the request -> they want a means for the user and manager to monitor and track requests using a standardized request numbering system. I believe that the standard solution for ESS/MSS does not have this one in place
-- for any form or process that has workflow attached there is an automatic workflow-id assigned by the system and I believe you can report on these inthe back end... standard workflow fuctionality... why dont you explore this option with your workflo consultant?
3. Ability to extract reports of histories of requests raised (for the employee) and requests reviewed (for the manager)
-- refer to point 2 answer above...

ESS/MSS Infotype, subtypes?

Hi,
I'm new to ESS/MSS customisation on EP7, I have a task to customise personal data screen and addresses screen by adding additional fields. I have posted another thread regarding how to customise for these changes but I hear the term infotypes, subtypes, tables to change and create.
Can someone please give an insight of what exactly these infotypes, subtypes and table related to ESS/MSS customization are? How are they related to Webdynpro models?
Thanks
Praveen

Dear Praveen,
Infotypes are nothing but places where HR master data sits.You can consider them as tables rather they are tables.For better picture go to PA20 and then put 2 against the infotype fiels.
Subtypes: For certain infotypes there are sub types available which allow you to classify the infotypes in better way.
for eg. in infotype 2006 which is for absence quota there are subtypes defined like sick leave , casual leave etc.
Web dynpro customization of the standard is a long process as it involves changes on both sides web dynpro side and the R3 side i.e the RFC (Remote Function Call) involved.
Hope this might clear a few things

Geet

ESS MSS views

Hi Experts,
I implement these views in the portal, and able to see some HR details.
What I need is to find out how further implementation, changing etc.... can be done.
any links or data will be great.
Thanks,
Limor

Hi Limor,
For ESS MSS customization there are differenet approches avaialble, depend upon the leval of customizations, like if you wants to change the lable or hide a field the you can achive the same using iView personalization for the just check wiki with ESS you get lots of material available there.
Secondly you can do the customization with NWDI, this is complety different approch then the previous one. It require lots off efforts too. For that just look for
JDI/NWDI Cookbook for ESS/XSS (Note 872892) you will get all the information you want.
For easy access just log on to http://host:port/nwa -> deploy and changes -> configuration wizard -> change management service (CMS): Modufy a Software Component there you will get all the link require for ESS/XSS customization.
