ESS Who is Who - Add search criteria

Hi all,
I have tried searching the forums, but can't find an answer for my problem. I want to add an additional field to the search criteria for the who is who iview.
I am able to change the advanced search, but I want to add a search criteria on the first screen. Changing the service for the adress book (Employee Self-Service -> Service-Specific Settings -> Address Book -> Who's Who -> Who's Who (ESS): Selection and Output) does not change this first screen.
Anyone know how I can make this change?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Marlies

If by selecting fields you mean in the Who's Who (ESS): Selection and Output, then yes.
I have there available 3 tabs, none have the default settings.
First tab I can set the selectionfields, but when changing/adding a field here, my "simple search" does not change. The changes here are reflected under the advanced search, which is nice, but not what I want.
I simply want to add 1 additional field to the first search screen, so the user does not have to always use the advanced search option.

Add (+) search criteria grayed out

When searching in a finder window, the normal ( +) button to add search criteria is disabled. I thought maybe I had a corrupt preference file, so I trashed all the .plist files that seemed to relate to the finder. Whe I restarted, the button was back, but only for a few minutes. After that, it went back to being disabled.
It looks like this attached image, with the button grayed out, and a ( - ) instead of a ( + ).
The problem is isolated to my primary user account. Others on the same machine are unaffected.
I looked over the discussion boards, and can't find anyone else with this problem, but maybe I don't know the right terminology. Any help would be appreciated.
What am I missing?

I narrowed it down further. This finder bug only appears when I use Command-N or click the Finder icon in the dock to create a new window.
If I double click any folder icon or drive on the desktop, the finder window that pops up has the ( + ) icon enabled, exactly as it should. What is going on?

How to Dynamically add Search Criteria in Advance Search Region.

Hi All,
I want to understand how can we add Search Criteria dynamically in the Advance Search Region.
The Requirement is to add 4 additional search criteria for an org_id in a multi org structure. For other business those fields should not be visible.
I did try this with the form personalization but could not Show/hide the additional search criteria programatically for the business as we can only see 4 search criteria at the time of page load and other criteria comes in the drop down list to add which can not be show/hide after page load.
I thought of a solution to add search criterias dynamically for my org through extending controller.
I found the OAAdvanceSearchBean (advance search Region in controller) object for my Advance Search but could you tell me how can I add the Criteria Row in that Advance Search (createWebBean function) and then add the item in criteria Row dynamically.
Also please tell me how we can increase the showed criteria from default 4 to more, setDisplayedCriteriaCount(int) is not allowed and it is not working also.
Thanks.

Hi,
As Lars said The "Search Option Set" and the "Search Component Set" offer you quite some flexibility.
You can configure both of these component to customize your search.
Once you did it, you can create a new basic search iview and set these components.
On the other hand, you also customize the layout use to show result of search.
Dont'f forget that you need to configure Trex and create an index.
For instance, I configured the search criteria, the system only asked me some metadatas (created by us,whose value are dependents). Each time that you upload a document you set these attributes.
Then when you want to search, appear a screen with these values
Country :
City:
search field:
Patricio.

How to add search criteria options in CRM UI?

Dear all,
we`ve recently updated to SolMan 7.1 SPS10 (source was SPS04). Now I`m struggling a bit with adding
an additional search criteria to the Incident Management Search View.
I already considered OSS Note 1918128 (same Title as this thread) and I was able to check this in our - not yet updated - Productive System
where this has been implemented already.
Adding the Object /AICRM/PROJECT_ID to the customizing table BTQSRVREQ in SPRO with some Operators didn`t make the trick
See attached Screenshot.
Can you please assist me how I can add an additional Search Criteria to the Icident Management Search context (selectable/Operators etc.?).
Reason behind is - we`d like search for open / closed incident for certain Projects as filter criteria.
In Addition it would be also great to know - How the Incident Management Standard View / Table can be extended
by the column "Project ID".
The Project ID itsself is already linked a new created Icident - hence I`m able check the Project assignment by opening
a specific Icident and personalize the view.
regards and many thx in advance

Hi,
I need to add an attribute in the context node BTQACT sight BT126S_APPT component ApptSQ.

Hi,
I added once three search fields to the activity search so i you have trouble please contact me.
To get a good start please use the following link:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/CRM/Howtoaddanexistingfieldtoasearchpageofadifferent+component
This link explains how to add new fields to the account search but it was very useful for me because many things are the same.
This are the most important steps:
1. Open structure CRMST_QUERY_ACT_BTIL and scroll down to its bottom. There is an include called
    CI_EEW_BUS2000126_SEARCH. Double click on the include and create it, if needed. Now add the Fields with the data
    elements you want to add.
2. Adjust Design Layer
3. Add the new field to the Activity Search Page in Web Client (Note: Still the fields are without life because search Logic is
    missing).
4. Enhance the Activity Search with BAdI: CRM_BADI_RF_Q1O_SEARCH
I hope i could help you.

Not render any field search criteria initially in Advanced Search Panel

Hi Everyone!
It's possible to hide or remove all field search criterias initially in Advanced search panel. We need that initially doesn't exist any field search and the user use the 'Add another' option when him need add search criterias.
Thanks,
Carlos C.

Your solution to the indexing issue with the LIKE operator is taking a small issue and making a big issue out of it.
Why not just fix the initial problem with basic tuning techniques ... for example a hint would force index usage.
So might having accurate statistics. So might tuning one or more optimizer parameters a small amount.
You have chosen the wrong solution for a very small problem thus you are where you are.

Filter results for New Search Criteria of Advanced Search

Hi,
I'm new to oaf.
I have added extended VO item to seeded advanced search region as new search criteria by personalization.
When i try to search for new criteria the results are not filtering and my extended CO logic as follows:
IN PFR:
if(oapagecontext.getParameter(oaquerybean.getGoButtonName()) != null || oapagecontext.getParameter(oaquerybean.getPersonalizeGoButtonName()) != null)
OAAdvancedSearchBean oaadvancedsearchbean = (OAAdvancedSearchBean)oawebbean.findChildRecursive("assetAdvSearch");
boolean flag = true;
if(oaadvancedsearchbean != null)
int i = oaadvancedsearchbean.getDisplayedCriteriaCount();
String s4 = oapagecontext.getParameter("advancedSearchRadioGroup");
for(int j = 0; j < i; j++)
String s6 = (new StringBuilder()).append("Value_").append(Integer.toString(j)).toString();
String s7 = (new StringBuilder()).append("Condition_").append(Integer.toString(j)).toString();
String s8 = oaadvancedsearchbean.getOriginalUINodeName(s6);
if(s8.equals("XXAssocMsgInput"))
String xx=oapagecontext.getParameter(s6);
oapagecontext.writeDiagnostics(this, "criteria value: "+xx, 105);
if (xx !=null) {
StringBuffer stringbuffer = new StringBuffer(100);
// Setting whereClause at Runtime to restrict the query
OAApplicationModule rootam = oapagecontext.getApplicationModule(oawebbean);
OAApplicationModule childAM = (OAApplicationModule)rootam.findApplicationModule("XXAdvSearchAM");
OAViewObject vvo1 = (OAViewObject)childAM.findViewObject("XXAdvSearchVO1");
Serializable[] parameters = {xx};
childAM.invokeMethod("getAssociateWith", parameters);
In AMImpl:
public void getAssociateWith(String xx)
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)getXXAdvSearchVO1();
Vector parameters = new Vector(2);
StringBuffer whereClause = new StringBuffer(100);
int clauseCount = 0;
int bindCount = 0;
vo.setWhereClauseParams(null); // Always reset
if ((xx!=null) && (!("".equals(xx.trim()))))
whereClause.append(" ASSOCIATE_WITH LIKE :");
whereClause.append(++bindCount);
parameters.addElement(xx);
clauseCount++;
vo.setWhereClause(whereClause.toString());
writeDiagnostics(this,"In AMIMPL whereclause:"+whereClause.toString(),119);
if (bindCount >0)
Object[] params=new Object[bindCount];
parameters.copyInto(params);
vo.setWhereClauseParams(params);
writeDiagnostics(this,"In AMIMPL XXAdvSearchVO:"+vo.getQuery(),120);
writeDiagnostics(this,"In AMIMPL VO Cnt:"+vo.getRowCount(),121);
vo.executeQuery();
writeDiagnostics(this,"After query = " + vo.getQuery(),123);
In diagnostics, parameter is not getting assigned with the value ..
Can you anyone suggest the inputs?
Thanks,
mallik

Add PERNR fieldTo Who's Who Search on ESS

Hi
I need to know how do I add a Search field -PERNR to who's who Infoset Query on ESS. I would also like to know how do I delete certain fields from Selection fields.
Thanks
Priya

Does the infoset not have PERNR available? If so, no need to change infoset. (We use a different one for other reasons).
Go to transaction PZ01C.
Bottom part shows available fields in infoset. Check for PERNR.
Add the wanted field (I belieav it would be P0001-PERNR) to selection fields.
Hope this helps.

Who's Who Search in ESS

Hello,
In ESS in our EP 7 SP10 portal environment, the "who's who" search does not work properly. A lot of times people are missing that should be there. We think we have ruled out this being a security issue because we have used a broad sample of users. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thank you for your time,
Erin Byrne

hey
how we solved it is from the ABAP side.
login to R/3
follow the below given path.
Personnel Management -> Employee Self-Service -> Employee Self Service (ITS Version) -> ESS Settings for Specific Services -> Life & Work Event
this way you can add or remove or edit the fields..
all the best.

ADD new fields Who's WHo

Im trying to add new fields to Advanced search in WHO's Who settings which are customs fields Z from infotype 1008; I customized new infoset copy from standard adding this infotype, but im getting error when i run de query on ESS, anyway Who's who don't Show fields from infotype 1008 on output field details, Anybody Knows How I can add custom fields in Who's who infoset and how the hell can I read infotype 1008 from infoset on PCH DataBase?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Here is the catch, when you add the custom infotype make sure it has the primary key same as other infotypes used in the Query.
For example make Pernr as the primary key in the custom infotype.
I tried the same in our landscape and it worked fine.
The steps I did are as below:
In SQ02 - EDIT - Change Info-Type Selection - Add the Custom Infotype to the Query
In SQ03 created a custom user group and assigned Infoset to the User Group.
In SQ01 create the query and click on Change - From the top selected Basic List and added the fields which I want to see in list and also the selection criteria.
Once done with this execute the Query and see if the data is populated from the Custom Infotype.
There is no coding needed to populate the data.
Make sure the join is right and it should get the data. And the above link shows how to include the Custom Info-type fields in WHO'S WHO search.
Hope this helps.
Cheers-
Pramod
