Error Deploying ESS/MSS ERP2005 WebDynpro Components for SP7

Hi,
I have been in process of trying to Patch up the J2EE stack in an attempt to turn on SAP Delivered Solution for ESS/MSS.
We are on EP7 with ECC6 Backend.
What I have done so far::
1. Updated J2EE with Netweaver SP stack 11.
2. Imported the business package for ESS/MSS into EP. I can confirm that the content is now available on PCD.
3. Then i tried to upload the WebDynpro Components for ESS/MSS. Files are PCUI_GP, ESS and MSS. they all have a named reference to 600 SP7. These are the ones available to download for self-services from mySAPERP components on service market place.
This step is now falling over. Deployment of these components fail when its trying to deploy the application component. I must add that once we loaded the Business packages for ESS/MSS (step 2), i then checked the delivered content and created a delta link to the AU/Address iView into my own content folder. I am not sure if this has anything to do with the Failure of deployment but this is the only thing that i did in between steps 2 and step 3.
I didn't think that it would have caused any issue as this was an iview while the component its trying to deploy is a webdynpro application, but i am not sure now.
Please see the trace below.

Hi Friends,
I got the same problem but not on ESS/MSS component. But the exception was exactly the same. The solution what i found is
1. Find the exception in the Default trace. By searching for DC Name.
2. Here you should find the one in which its mentioned below error
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.repository.RepositoryRuntimeException: Failed to deploy the file '/usr/sap/EPD/JC35/j2ee/cluster/server0/./temp/webdynpro/public/burton.com/portal~passwordchange/webdynpro/Components/com.burton.webshop.b2b.myprofile.EditPassword/EditPassword.xml' into the database. Reason: Development Object 'local/wdMyProfile' contains already same repository content. Hint: fully qualified name of the repository VMO must be globally unique.
3. Now go to the visual administrator -> deploy -> webdynpro and undeploy the local webdynpro with which the current DC is conflicting. (You should decide whehter you can undeploy or not)
4. Now try activate the activity or Deploy the DC you shouldnt get the problem.
Actually i got this problem when i created a WebDynpro DC by importing the local webdynpro project. So, when i try to activate the activity of DC created then its not getting deployed. When i check the logs, i had same exceptions as you ppl got. So after going thru default trace then i figured out that the local webdynpro is the reason for this conflicting. Then i undeployed that webynpro.
Hope this may be useful for you and others...
Thanks,

Appraisals in ESS/MSS ERP2005

Hi,
I hope someone can help my confusion.
It is true that in ERP2005 (ECC6), there is no standard apprasial functionality for employees?
Is the MSS Appraisal Functionality under Personnel Development or Performance Management (Maintain Performance Documents)?
Thanks in advance
Paul

Hello Paul,
In every release of performance management there is standard appraisal functionality available for the employee; be it directly in R/3 or in the web.
There is no ESS scenario available. Instead you can include pages of BSP application HAP_DOCUMENT to an iview and assign that to the employee. This allows performance management to run in the portal as well as stand-alone in the web.
The same concept can be used for the manager. Besides this we deliver also an MSS status overview.

ESS/MSS in multiclient szenario

Hello,
we want to use on one portal two ESS/MSS (Erp2005) szenarios pointing to different backend clients. What we did so far:
1. Copy the Business Portal in portal to a second folder
2. Redirect the JCo Connections of copied iViews to new client
3. Define new JCo connections
If we start with the overview page, we can see the new page for new client. But if we click on a service, lets say "Who is Who" this does not call the copied iView for new client but still the old one in original location.
Where is this piece of information hidden, that say when I click on a service, open a specific iView? From looking in the code of the PCUI components I did not find any... I believe its somewhere in the R/3??
Best regards,
Frank

Hi Frank,
I'm confused how you have managed to configure ESS to connect to two different backend SAP clients at the same time from within one portal using the ESS webdynpro development components and JCo Connections.
I didn't think this was possible as the webdynpro components use one JCo connection that links into exactly one client. Can you please expand upon how you managed to achieve this as we want to do the same thing.
Did you make copies of the ESS webdynpro development components or modify them somehow to point at a different JCo connection that points at a different backend client?
regards,
Sean

Adobe Document Services in ESS/MSS

Hello All,
Is it possible to get a list of iviews and services which utilise Adobe document services in ESS/MSS ERP2005 on EP7.0?
Any help is greatly appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks all,
Rajit

One good one to mention.....Adobe interactive Forms via HCM Processes and Forms is THE replacement for PCRs.....even says so in the documentation. Soooo....
You will also see them in Appraisals now as well as a big part of E-Recruiting, Travel and Expense, etc.

TIME on ESS/MSS with the SAP Portal, release ERP2005 ECC6.

Hello,
I need to implement TIME (Leave request) on ESS/MSS with the SAP Portal, release ERP2005 ECC6.
Any informations about the customizing for a proof of concept would be appreciated.
All the back-end (R/3) as allready been customized.
Thanks for your responses.
Olivier

Hello,
If you already have all the templates and such configured then its easy. We don't have ESS and only one MSS scenario. However we support the web environment via BSP HAP_DOCUMENT. You can include our list pages in an Iview and assign that to the ESS or MSS scenario in the portal.
They also run stand alone, so you can test it as well without configuring the portal.
See also <a href="/people/sap.user72/blog/2007/02/20/objective-setting-appraisals-the-web-environment bloggy</a> on OSA and the web Environment, especially the last part will be of interest for you.

ESS/MSS: Approve Leave Request in UWL - not working

Hi to all,
we are using web dynpro ESS/ MSS (SAPESS07_12/ SAPMSS07_4) in portal NW04s for mySAP ERP2005 and are using UWL in order to approve leave requests. If employees are creating leave requests, everything works fine. After that the manager opens the leave request in UWL, the web dynpro application is openening succesfully and after some clicks he reaches the buttons to approve or reject the leave request. But by pushing one of them the following messages occures :
Workitem 000000000000 Cannot be read
After pushing the button again, another message comes up:
No Customizing for status typ ARQ, Status approved...
By the way, the same errors also come up when the employee wants to delete his leave request which is not approved.
Any ideas, what can be the reason?
Regards,
Frank

Hi Ashutosh,
I have found the reason. The user WF - Batch in sap erp, which is using the RFC Destination for workflow, was locked. Well, it is a a little bit strange for a cummunication user that he becomes locked. Unlocked him, now all works.
Thanks for your support.

ESS with ERP2005 (without a Portal)

Hi,
in the moment we are using ESS with SAP Enterprise (4.7).
Now we are planning the Upgrade to ERP2005.
We have several customers who has outsourced their HR Processes to us. We maintain their ESS on our SAP Servers.
If we change to ERP2005 the problem is, that our customers have their own Portal which is often no SAP portal. The Portal is a very strategic IT part of our customers, so we have no access to the Portal. On the other hand our customers has no HR know-how to maintain the ESS om their own.
We heard about the internal ESS. May be this could be the solution in our situation. Where can we get more information about the internal ESS. Who has tested this software already.
Best regards
Thomas

Hi,
the internal ESS is nothing else than an EP 7.0 "in disguise". It is a regular java stack, portal 7.0 and the BP for ESS and MSS just in one install on the same machine than HCM.
It is of no difference if you are using a regular external Portal Scenario or an internal ESS.
Generally speaking, SAP will push the Portal. It is now more or less mandatory for ESS/MSS and BW - SRM will follow with the next release. Web Dynpro will be essential part of the GUI-Strategy and WD without portal makes not a lot of sense.
So, customers with a different portal will need to pursuit a "Dual Portal" strategy in future, because there will be no WD integration int other portals. SAP stated very clearly in internal discussions that customers with a different portal strategy will have serious integration problems.
What I recommend is using EP for integration of SAP and use KM with federated portals for "syndication", i.e. for content integration of other portals.
When you are a provider of services, that would be a good point to start as a service offering

Training and Event Managaement in ESS/MSS Portal for ERP2004 version

Hi SDNs,
I am working for ESS/MSS for ERP2004 system to NW2004s system.Afer importing the business packages to portal, I got only the following roles for ESS and MSS.
Employee Self-Service:
Employee Search | Working Time | Benefits and Payment | Personal Information | Career and Job | Purchasing | Work Environment | Travel and Expenses | Life and Work Events
MSS: MyStaff:
Overview | Attendance | Personnel Change Request | Recruiting | Reporting | Headcount
MyBudget:
Overview | Monitors and Reports | Equipment | Planning
According to the Worksets i got it, i couldn't find, Training and Development activity, Performance Mangement in both ESS and MSS.
How do I achieve this?
We also have a requirement of OH & S to be integrated to ESS.
Please suggest me to integrate this activities.
Your help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Sireesha.B.

Hi,
Training and Development, Performance Management are not available in the latest versions of ESS and MSS.
You may have to use the old Business Packages to incorporate this, the only difference would be that those pages would be BSPs.
Please refer to the following threads:
ESS/MSS with my SAP ERP2005
Are there Appraisal for ESS
BSPs for Performance Management - Response Appreciated.

A question about ESS / MSS implementation.

Hi All,
Just a brief again about our landscape as:
1. We have an ERP ECC5.0 system which has J2EE6.40(add-in) without the 'EP' usage type and the present Support package level of the relevant ESS and MSS components are as follows:
a. J2EE6.40 Support Package level is '17'.(We are going to deploy the XSS components here)
b. ERP ECC5.0 system's Software Components details are as follows:
SOFTWARE COMPONENTS RELEASE LEVEL HIGHEST SUPPORT PACKAGE APPLIED
SAP_BASIS 640 0016 SAPKB64016
SAP_ABA 640 0016 SAPKA64016
SAP_APPL 500 0009 SAPKH50009
SAP_HR 500 0019 SAPKE50019
EA-HR 500 0005 SAPKGPHC05
2. We have a separate NW2004s(Dual stack(ABAP7.0+J2EE7.0) installation having EP7.0 with Support Package level is '16'. (We are going to deploy the Business Package for ESS & MSS here).
Here are my questions?
1. what is the best 'Support Package' level recommendation or combination is applicable for all the components(J2EE6.40,SAP_BASIS,SAP_ABA,SAP_APPL,SAP_HR,EA-HR...etc.,) involved in this type of mixed landscape - ESS & MSS implementation?
2. If we apply the higher Support Packages 'only' for the ERP ECC5.0 software components such as: SAP_BASIS,SAP_ABA,SAP_APPL,SAP_HR,EA-HR - what other ERP ECC5.0 software components would get impacted from functionality prespective ?(let us say if we keep the current Support Package level for other software components as untouched)
3. Is there any dependency exist from the Support Package point-of-view between the ESS MSS Business Packages and with XSS components(PCUI_GP; ESS; MSS)
4. Is there any dependency exist from the Support Package point-of-view between XSS components and ERP ECC5.0 software components such as "SAP_BASIS,SAP_ABA,SAP_APPL,SAP_HR,EA-HR"
Kindly address my above concerns.
Regards,
Vijay

Hi Vijay
To answer your questions
First you should check note 1007341 which helps consultants proposing this type of landscape
To answer some of your questions
1) For SPs you have to patch ERP 2004 components following ERP 2004 stack and patch
    ERP 2005 components following the ERP2005 stack recommendations at www.service.sap.com/sp-stacks
    in terms of equivalence levels I would select SP levels from each stack with similiar release dates
2) Presumably you will be using ERP2004 components in the front-end in some capacity therefore these
    ERP2004 components must be patched in line with ECC 500 stacks
3) There is dependancies between Business Packages and XSS
4) There is dependancies between back-end components SAP_HR and EA_HR and XSS/BP
    SAP_HR and EA_HR also have their own dependancies with the other back-end components listed

ESS MSS BP download location and where can i check the appropriate BP

Hi Everybody,
I just want to know the location from where i can download the ESS MSS BP for fresh deployment.
And also the place where can i check the appropriate BP version for my landscape.
Also pls let me know the total list of components to be deployed for ESS MSS implementation.
thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ravi

Hi Ravi
Try
service.sap.com/swdc
Path for downloading XSS files:
-> SAP Support Packages
-> Entry by Application Group
-> SAP Application Components
   -> SAP ERP
    -> SP ERP 6.0 (version dependant)
     -> Entry by component
       -> SAP XSS (Self Services)
XSS software components:
SAPESS SAP_ESS 600
SAPMSS SAP_MSS 600
SAPPCUIGP SAPPCUI_GP 600
Path for downloading Business Packages:
-> SAP Support Packages
-> Entry by Application Group
   -> SAP Application Components
    -> SAP ERP
     -> SP ERP 6.0 (version dependant)
      ->Entry by component
      -> Portal Content
Business Packages:
BP_ERP5ESS 1.0
BP_ERP5MSS 1.0
BP_ERP5COM 1.0
This will vary depending on target versions for example EHPs have a different product path and EHP4 has a different
location entirely called "Portal Content Self Services"
For landscape version please see the following notes

NetWeaver Portal and ERP 6.0: BI, ESS/MSS and full Portal on one machine

Hello,
with ERP 6.0 you need a EP Core Portal for BI Java. An other EP Core Portal for HCM ECC/MSS. The iViews from this portal you integrate in the main portal via federated portal. But in this scenario i need to much portals and have a lot of maintenance costs (administration overhead for evry portal). For a small Customer i will build one Portal for all. It is possible e.g. to use the BI Portal with ESS/MSS and as full portal?
Best regards,
Patrick

Hi,
So you would like one BI installation with both the ABAP and the Java-stack with the full BI-functionallity and additionally the XSS-component and set it up to work against the ECC ABAP-only system ?
I think the scenario would actually work, but:
1) You might get future problems if you want to upgrade your BI-system and not the ECC-system.
Is it possible to run the old XSS-components in the new java-stack ?
2) You might get future problems if you want to upgrade your ECC-system and not the BI-system.
What if the new version of the XSS-component demands certain java-components which the BI-system do not have.
So my recommendation is still to run the java-stack on both systems.
ECC with the XSS-java-components and BI with the Bi-java-components.
This way you do not lock yourself into a corner and each system can be upgrade independent of the other.

Backend R/3 connectivity for ESS MSS from portal

Hi,
We are currently in development cycle for ESS/MSS based on portal EP 6.0 SP16 and ERP 2004 in backend. We are trying to find out how the ESS/MSS business package on portal works with backend ESS functionality in ERP 2004. It is more of a connectivity question. We want to know if we expose our portal to internet so that users can login to ESS/MSS from internet, do we need to put backend ERP (ECC 5.0) system also in DMZ? Do we need to open ports between portal and R/3 so that ESS/MSS can work? Or the communication happens using JCO connections and we need not to expose R/3 system.
Also one more specific question? If someone knows how ESS/MSS talks to backend system. At SAP application layer level or database level? I am asking this question to check if I need to open a port to talk to database or I can very well keep 2-3 SAP application server in DMZ and work.
PK

You need to look at the specific business package. For example, ESS for mySAP ERP 2004 says that the technology is Java / Web dynpro, which says that the Java engine uses RFCc to get the data from the backend.
Othe businesss packages may use ITS, which then needs another connection from the user to the ITS server.
Cheers

I am trying to implement ESS/MSS (600 SP7). For customization I need to import the package on the track in CMS. Import of JEE, JTECHS, BUILDT and PCUIG were successful. When i tried importing ESS and MSS, import is failing. Check-In of both the components are successful but while importing the component under Development tab, its failing. Import of MSS in DTR is successful but CMS is failing.
Below is the log for ESS:

Function modules or BAPIs for ESS MSS

Hi Experts,
I am new to HR (ESS/MSS & who's who). I am looking for standard BAPI's and Function Modules that would give me information about an employee's upper level's and lower levels (reporting).
My requirement is to build an Webdynpro Application with taking employee id as user input and display his uplevel's and downlevel's. Also, hyperlink on employee should help me to further navigate to the corresponding employee's information.
Note: I tried to search this forum, but unable to narrow down the required business functions that i require.
Thanks,
Gaurav.
