My task is i have to send few details about the emp leave to a position manager.
In ESS emp fills these details.
1) Date of applying Leave
2) Leave from date, To date

i want to send the manager the from and to date of leave this is not available in the class. how do i get From and to date.

You will have to develop it yourself. I have never done it, but I know this has been discussed before I think also in this forum. You could do a search for it. Also search the HCM forum, it could be it was discussed there.

**where can i look for standard ESS & MSS related workflows**

There "IS" a central place where workflows can be accessed in SAP...which i eventually foundout...it is thru Tcode SWDM - Business Workflow Explorer
There we need to check for component that we are looking workflows for....
for example :
EP-PCT-MGR-HR - Business Package for Manager Self-Service (HR)
PA-ES - Employee Self-Service
PT-EV -Time Evaluation
And ofcourse Bus.Pack Documentation is always useful.

Any Special transaction code for Activation of Work flow

Hi all.
Any Special transaction code for Activation and deactive of Work flow?
which have we need to transport after WF (like task,method,rule)?
To be reward all helpfull answers.
Regards.
Jay

If I understand your question correctly, you want to know how to activate your workflow after transport ?
Normally, the status of a workflow is included in your transport (if I'm not mistaken)
So activate/deactivate in your dev-system and transport it..

CONFIGURATION WORK FLOW IN ESS (LEAVE)

Hi gurus.
He wanted to know what form it's to indicate that a leave's class should not generate Work Flow when it's post from ESS.
In T554S_WEB it is possible to leave in white the fields of WF's codes. The problem is that there is a field in the above mentioned table, APPROVAL_PROCESS, that if has the value "W" (Workflow) , though the fields have been left in whiteof workflow, tries to generate a WF with code WS00000000.
The case is that the field APPROVAL_PROCESS is not located by me from what point of the parametrización it is possible to modify.
I am grateful for your help.
Thank you very much.

If you need this option then you need to change the WF Task.
General Forwarding Not Allowed
This indicator enables you to determine that work items for this task can only be forwarded to users who are agents for the task.
If this indicator is not set, a work item for this task can be forwarded to all users.
The best way to take care of User
Forwaring authorization is the Task Classification (PFTC -> Additional
Data -> Classification). Classify tasks with General Forwarding Not
allowed, will give you the oppotunity to let the user allow to forward
items JUST to the Possible Agents Assigned to the task
(Additional Data -> Agent Assingment -> Maintain)...
Clear that everything depends on How you have developed your workflows
definitions. In that cases the best think to do is
create Different Tasks definition (TSxxxxxx) and let they start
depending on Company Code (That can be driven via Conditions steps in
the workjflow definition, for example). This will allow you to define
Just the responsible Agents per each task, depending on the Companny
Code. This definitively Resolve the Forwarding frelated Question.

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.

Frank

ESS / MSS - download function module doens't work

Hi all,
We are working with SAP 4.6c, and using function GUI_DOWNLOAD to download data to xls file. When we access the application through ESS / MSS, we don't know why, but it doesn't take into consideration parameter WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = "X". The result is, it'll download the data into the file, but when we open it, the entire record is contained in just one cell. Running the same program using SAP GUI, it works perfectly.
Any idea or suggestion?
Thanks in advance.
TAG: ESS, MSS, GUI_DOWNLOAD, WS_DOWNLOAD, EMPLOYEE SELF SERVICE, MANAGER SELF SERVICE.

Hi Cassio,
Is the data in internal table is tab separated or not?
If not then make the data of internal tabel as tab separated before downloading.
Do like this:
DATA: c_tab TYPE c VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.
Suppose you have a comma as field separator then to make it as tab seprated use thsi syntex.
REPLACE ALL OCCURANCES OF SPACE IN ITAB WITH C_TAB.
Or Loop the internal table and append the data of 1st internal table into another int. table using c_tab as separaptor.
Then use GUI_DOWNLOAD. this time it will download the records properly.

Work Flow For Activity

Hi All,
I have a section called USERS as a related information in the task detail page.Every time I modify the task & click on the SEND EMAIL check box I need to send an email to all users under the USERS section mentioning that this task has been modified.
The problem is I dont have an option to extract all the user details and their email ids. I am using the below mentioned options to create the work flow.
Record Type : Activity
Trigger Event : When modified Record Saved
Workflow Condition: When SEND EMAIL is checked
Under Actions
For the TO EMAIL address, I am not able to extract all the email ids of the users under the USERS related info section. Any suggestions.
Thanks
Natraj

Hi
I do not think you can do it with the current functionality.
you can send emails for activity owner, activity owner manager, activitiy account owner and activity account owner manager.
You can not define to send it to all users, as much as I know.
