ESS - NWBC - Benefits Service Missing

Hi Experts,
We are on ECC 6.0, EHP 6. We are using NWBC for ESS/MSS.
We have assigned standard SAP roles for ESS.
We don't see Benefits Service under Benefits and Payment. We do have assigned required roles for Canada.
Any idea, what is missing on the role side?
Regards,
Ashish

Also make sure you're using the correct role. SAP_EMPLOYEE_XX_ESS_WDA_3 is delivered with EHP6 and it includes the required menu setup. We're in the U.S. and it included country grouping 10 and 99 versions of the new Benefit services for us.
Also, the HRESS_A_BENEFITS_ENROLLMENT web dynpro application is driven based on system configuration and benefit adjustment reasons. For example, Open Enrollment is only available in the ESS menu if the Open Enrollment period is open in the Benefit IMG configuration. Otherwise it's not available in menu when an employee logs in.

Benefits services (WD Java) in EhP5 using NWBC

Hi,
We are using NWBC to acces WDA portal application... They seems to work fine, however, the Benefits applications are still in WD for Java.
Is there a way we can access these Benefits applications using NWBC (for html)? We are using EhP5.
I am told that Benefits services will be available in WDA in EhP6 but thats too long of a wait...
Could anyone suggest how to get around this and what techniques you guys used to get around this problem.
Thanks for your time.

Hi Sid,
Do you know if there are any alternatives to get BN enrollment on NWBC...
We are thinking about
1) Custom WDA application (more like vanilla flavor) of what SAP is releasing in EhP6
2) Create Adobe Interactive Form to complete enrollment (But I hear you need Java for that and we do not have Javas stack yet)
3) offline form - manual process
But we are not sure what are the precautions for each options...
Are there other options?

Objects & attachments not visible for supervisor ESS NWBC.

Hi all gurus,
We have done Travel Request in ESS NWBC. Now when the supervisor try to approve, he can see only limited details. He couldn't see travel service he booked(Flight,Taxi or Hotel booked). I mean in SBWP of Supervisor, he can see the everything in Objects & Attachments. Is there anyway to appear this objects & attachments for supervisor in NWBC when he click on the travel request.??
Regards,
Namsheed.

Hi Namsheed,
I think this is normal because the travel request does not include any booking details.
The travel request is before any online bookings.
So might be it would help to explain in detail your process and used components.
Best regards,

Neeru .

Thanks a lot for ur fast response ....i tried with all options , and found the solution
that is in ESS 1.0 with EP7.0 , to create an icon with a service in ESS home page there should be a webdynpro java page , it will not accept portal page , so i created webdynpro java application and gave the pcd path of abap webdynpro iview in that , created an webdynpro iview and page along with that now it is working perfectly .
this is what i came to know after a good research ....please experts correct me if i am wrong ?
I Appreciate the sdn and who are all helped me for this

SOLVED: "AuthenticationSupport service missing. Cannot authenticate request."

A customer was installing CQ5 on a Red Hat Linux environment, and getting the following error displaying in the browser.
AuthenticationSupport service missing. Cannot authenticate request.
We checked the Felix Console, and all bundles were installed correctly.
We did however find the following message in the error log:
20.06.2012 10:49:26.689 *ERROR* [FelixStartLevel] org.apache.jackrabbit.core.RepositoryImpl failed to start Repository: Unable to register data store in cluster. javax.jcr.RepositoryException: Unable to register data store in cluster.
Caused by: java.net.UnknownHostException: {server name}: {server name}
This was not a clustered instance.
On closer inspection, the error was caused by an incorrect IP address entry for {server name} in the hostnames file

Hello Mkiti,
    I take a look there and my host file only contains comments :s
    Heres the content:
# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
#    127.0.0.1       localhost
#    ::1             localhost
    The error only happen after I install the CQ5 update fix, from package share. I just renamed the crx-quickstart folder, the CQ create a new one and works, but my projects still in the old quickstart :s Is there a way to physically copy these projects, maybe?

Services missing for DUET Configuration

Hi all,
In configuring DUET Enterprise, certain services are missed out which are required for completing the configuration. The missed services are :
/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/saml2
/sap/public/mysssocnt
/sap/bc/srt/pm
In SICF tcode, when I see the above services, Iam unable to find out.
Can anybody clear me that, for these services, we need to install certain patches or any other alternative is there to get these services.
Thanks & Regards,
Kris

Hi Holger,
Thanks for your reply.
As mentioned in chapter 3.3.2 Configure the Service Provider for StarterServices Endpoints for duet Enterprise.
We need to perform some steps on the SAP system on T.code: soamanager.
while performing step number 9 on chapter 3.3.2 we are unable to see
Application and Scenario Communication tab (or the Service Administration
tab) and we are stuck here.
Moreover,
while manually adding services describe in 3.3.2 chapter i am getting
error "0 entities found!"
Procedure iam following is desribed below:
1. Go to T.code: soamanager.
2. Click on Business Administration.
3. click on Mass configuration.
4. click Create
5. In the Configuration Scenario section fill in the following:
a. Enter the configuration scenario name, for example, StarterServices.
b. Enter a description for the scenario, for example, Services used by
Starter Services.
6. Select the Provider tab and click Add.
7. Select the Search tab.
a. In the Search by field, select Service.
b. In the Search Pattern field, enter the name of a starter service
required service, for example CustomerERPByIDQueryResponse_In.
c. In the Field field, select Both Names.
d. Click GO.
e. Click Add to Worklist.
when i click on "go" as mentioned in step number 7 above i am getting
error "0 entities found!".
So we are assuming it might be due to the services missing in SAP(backend system).
Please suggest on it.
Thanks
Kris

ESS Open Enrollment Service

Hello,
I am on EP7.0 NW04s ECC6.0 and want to modify the ESS Service Open Enrollment ...and I am looking for the ESS Webdynpro Application service corresponding to it.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi Antony,
Thanks for replying.
I have verified in SM30. I do not see any value in the input field for "URL of PCD". are there any other check points?
Following are the details of the for the resources, service keys and service groups.
Resource Key: EMPLOYEE_GENERICENROLLMENT_SERVICE05.
Directory Path: sap.com/ess~ben
Object Name: BenefitsApplication
URL Parameter: TRACKING_ID=GENERIC&INITIATOR_ROLE=HRASRD&EVENT=
<b>Assignments</b>
Servive Key: EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_GENERIC_ENROLLMENT05.
Service Group: EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_GENERIC_ENROLLMENT
Resource Key: EMPLOYEE_GENERICENROLLMENT_SERVICE
Directory Path: sap.com/ess~ben
Object Name: BenefitsApplication
URL Parameter: EVENT=
<b>Assignments</b>
Service Key: EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_GENERIC_ENROLLMENT
Service Group: EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_GENERIC_ENROLLMENT
I also have another issue came up during trials.
I copied sub Areas, services, service group, resources, and assigned them accordingly to areas and group pages. and made changes respectively in the PCD location (application parameters:   sap.xss.menuargrp etc..).
I removed the Sub Area from the Area Page. Still I am seeing some links like "Open Enrollement", "Adjustment Reason Enrollments" etc. which just refer the above Resource Keys. Where are the default values coming from? Like mentioned in one of the threads, are they coming from Client "000".
Thanks!

ESS-Employee Self Service-Help required.

Hello,
We have already implemented ESS-Employee Self Service.(PORTAL EP 7.0 SP13 & HR system-ECC 6.0). Now the requirement is that payroll related information in ESS needs to be mapped with another HR system SAP 4.7.Rest of the functionality needs to be unchanged.
I am beginner in portal. Can any one please provide me the required detailed documentation regarding the same.
Useful answers will be rewarded.
Regards,
Subodh Ghosalkar

Hello SJ,
Thanks for your inputs.
We have not mapped SAP 4.7 yet. We are looking forward to integrate it.
I agree that we should go for payroll in ECC 6.0 as well. But its the client requirement that as of now we want payroll from SAP 4.7.They would be migrating to ECC 6.0 in next few months. Till then we have to manage with SAP 4.7
Could you please provide me any documentaion regarding this issue or issues that we need to care off before we go ahead with this complex activity.

ESS Internet Service missing PZ02

Hello,
I'm implementing PORTAL EP6 SP9 with an 46C backend and an ITS.
ESS is working fine for most transactions except for
PZ02, PZ12. They do not appear in the portal with the html design but with a SAP GUI design.
In R/3, transaction SE80, Internet Services, those transactions are missing. I have PZ03 but there is no PZ02.
Could you plse tell me if we have lost something or if we have to update our R/3 46C system. (patch 48 and HRSAPKE46C90)

Hi Gilles
I recently noticed this with the ESS Personal Information workset. Seems the Personal Data, Family / related persons / previous employees etc don't have a service. They all use WEB GUI. Originally the Bank information iView looks also to be WEB GUI until you publish it. Then IAC templates are used and the thing sticks out like a sore thumb in comparison.
I have since deleted the service file from the wgate to force it to revert back to WEB GUI for consistency.
All these transactions are associated with program SAPMPZ02 which then determines what the county key for the user then though config table T77WWW_SC the function module that retrieves the data and controls the screen is determined. I'm sure they will be replaced it soon with Java based iViews like MSS, or web dynpro.
I have recently had problems with the ITS copying PZ03, can't get the search help to work though the ITS properly, which is another story.

ESS 'service' missed in ABAP DWB (SE80)

Hi,
We have SAP R/3 4.7 and ITS 6.20 standalone server. In ABAP Development Workbench(SE80) 'SYSTEM' service is missed and i have to change some HTML template. How to get this service and modify.
include(~service="system", ~language="", ~theme="dm", ~name="TemplateLibraryDHTML.html");
And one morething, anyone tell how to modify pz01 service,
Whos Who PZ01: To include information from infotype 0041 and custom infotype 9040.
please anyone advice.
Thanks,
Suriya.

WOW! A whole lot of questions going on! haha
(1) SYSTEM service not accessble in SE80?
answer: There are several "utiliy" and "ITS specific" services that are installed during the ITS installation that are not available within R/3....such as "SYSTEM", "GLOBAL", htmlb controls libraries, etc. Great care should be taken if you are modifying these (ie. backup original, etc). These can be found and modified/copied/customized at the file system level (ie. look out in your Agate path).
(2) infotype 0041 and custom infotype 9040 needed in PZ01?
answer: This can be done via configuration without custom development at all. Just create your own infoset (if unsure on this, please check documentation). Then with your own infoset, those needed infotype fields will be avilable.
(3) Customizing ITS services? Rename tempates? answer: yes, create your own "Z" version as per typical customization. Then publish out your customized service and call it instead of the standard service. Also, do NOT change the copied template names if you have NOT changed the backend transaction. Template names refer to the ABAP transaction program and screen names behind the scenes...that's how ITS communicates with the transaction. So, the naming convention is <program name>_<screen number>. If you DO create a custom backend program, then YES, do make sure your new template names correspond correctly. For example, if you have a custom version of ITS service PZ01 called "ZPZ01" yet it's service file parameter "transaction" still calls "PZ01", then keep your template names the same. Otherwise, suppose your "transaction" parameter now calls a customized "ZPZ01" transaction, then your templates may now be "SAPMZPZ01_<screen number>" instead of "SAPMPZ01_<screen number>" (*the Z is added in the first one). Make sense?
(4) Restart ITS with each publish? answer: Absolute nonsense!!! You do NOT need to restart ITS. You only restart ITS typically when you change GLOBAL params or such (and with errors like run away/hung sessions). Publishing to ITS is STANDARD operation...no need to restart it.
(5) Missing ITS templates? answer: check your ITS settings in R/3 to make sure it is publishing to the right location. Also check IACOR administration to makes sure the locations are correct as well.
I think that covers it...like I said...several questions...hope I got to them all! =) Till next time....

ESS W2 Reprint service

Hello ,
I am on EP7.0 ERP05 and NW04s and deployed ESS Standard Business Pack and what I found in the BP that the iview for W2 reprint service was missing ,so I created a view (type-webdynpro application) and pointed to the essussap.com->W2Reprint Application and it worked fine ....but the look of this iview is very different from the other iviews like colour and and the personalize options .....
I wonder for the reason for it...
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hello Subhash,
Well I don't have any idea W2 reprint service iview and why its missing.
But you can easily solve that by transporting the iview from some other portal where its working and importing it in ur portal. In that case the look and feel will be exactly the SAP provided way.
I hope someone can send you the transport package to ur email-id.
You must have become an expert on ESS/MSS by now..:-)

SharePoint Foundation Web Application service "missing"

Hi all,
I've got an unusual situation. I was getting an "object reference not set to an instance of an object" error when trying to create a web application which was a little concerning.
Although I've not got to the bottom of that yet I've discovered that the SharePoint Foundation Web Application service is "missing" when I go to the list of Services on Server in Central Admin. It's only a small farm (1 app and 1 web server) with
the service running on the web server.
It must actually be running because the existing SharePoint sites are running, but obviously something's not right.
Has anyone ever seen this happen before?
Thanks.

Thank you for the replies
I've run Install-SPService but that's not made any difference.
When I run the SharePoint Products Configuration Wizard (GUI), on the first screen (Modify server farm settings) it's showing the
correct database server and configuration database name and "Do not disconnect from this server farm" is selected by default.
On the next screen (Configure SharePoint Central Administration Web Application) it looks like I'm configuring a new because it wants me to specify a port for central admin. If I specify the existing central admin port then I get "The port specified
has already been chosen". If I don't specify the port then it appears that if I continue Central Admin will be re-provisioned on a new port.
"False" is returned for the command (get-spserver $env:computername).NeedsUpgrade
Could running psconfig from the command line fix this? If there's an issue I don't want to make things worse (although we are running in a VMware environment so I can snapshot the servers).
Thanks.
