ESS Who is Who default address

Dear Guru's
For our customer we are looking for an option to view a default address subtype in the output from Who is Who. I have two questions:
1. We use our own infoset with infotype 0006 for addresses. Our customer however uses multiple subtypes in infotype 0006. They want to show a certain subtype default in the output results without selecting this subtype using the advanced search option.
Is this possbile?
2.Also using our own infoset. The outputresults in the Iview don't seem to match with the records in te backend. For example:
infotype 0006 consist two records:
record 1:
P0006-BEGDA= 01.01.2011
P0006 - ENDDA = 31.12.9999
P0006-ANSSA = 1 Permanent residence
P0006-STRAS = x
P0006-HSNMR = x
P0006-PSTLZ= x
P0006-ORT01 = x
record 2:
P0006-BEGDA= 01.01.2011
P0006 - ENDDA = 31.12.9999
P0006-ANSSA = 6 nursing address
P0006-STRAS = y
P0006-HSNMR = y
P0006-PSTLZ= y
P0006-ORT01 = y
The output in the Iview using the infoset and filling P0006-ANSSA in the advanced search option with 1 shows for example
P0006-ANSSA = 1 Permanent address (record 1)
P0006-STRAS = y (record 2)
P0006-HSNMR = x (record 1)
P0006-PSTLZ= x (record 1)
P0006-ORT01 = y (record 2)
Is this a problem with FM BAPI_EMPLOYEE_GETDATA ?
Help needed.

have you made your custom infoset and a query and select those fields which you need to be shown?
Note that
We can only restrict with the query which is based on the infoset.
In the case of who is who, the query is designed based on selection of
selection fields, output fields & output field list.
We can create infoset query based on subtype field of IT 6 but we cannot
restrict it to subtype.
I suggest that you use BAPI method for creating search for Who's Who .
You may need to write your own BAPI.

ESS - who's who (Address book)

Configuring ESS - who's who --> selection and ouput .. I save the changes,
it does not ask for any transport request # .. just saves it.. how can I do an SCC1 to the test client.. Now in the test client , I am able to make changes (other config changes are not allowed) to the same IMG node.. and I am able to do what i want to.. but eventually how will this go to Q or P without a request #
Has any one come across similar situation ?

JM -
See SAP NOTE 216115 Transport of ESS Whos Who Customizing. The automatic transport request for the Whos Who configuration has been deactivated by SAP.
To transport this section, manually generate a transport for table T77WWW_WHO and also SM34, HR_SELECTIONS. I did this at my previous client and still only the selection screen was transportable. Maintaining the fields for the Hit List screen and the Profile Detail screen was still a manual process. Same with the checkbox settings for 'Maintain ESS Settings." We included these maunual settings as part of our cutover plan. Not sure if SAP has updated or issued a subsequent note.

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.

Customising Who's Who- ESS?

HI all,
We are using EP 6.0, mysap ERP 2004 and ESS BP 60.2.
In ESS, Who's Who is working fine, but want to remove one link ( Organization Unit). My requirement is either i have to remove the Organization Unit link as a whole or just want to display the data in Organization Unit( not to have further link for that data).
How to achieve this task..
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Mahesh.M.R

Hi Mahesh,
In case you dont want to display organizational unit, carry out following steps:
In IMG go to following link :
Personnel Management -> Employee self-service -> Service specific settings -> Address Book -> Who is who -> Selection and Output------
Remove 'P0001-ORGEH' from "Output Fields list"
This will solve your problem. Hope this helps

Adding Field to Who's Who iView in ESS

Hi,
We have EP 7.0 and have deployed ESS/MSS 1.0. I want to modify who's who iView in Employee Search.
In who's who iView there is field of Organizational Unit which display searched employee organizational Unit. But i want to modify that field.. i.e i have created z-table which stores division / department of every employee.
Thus this organizational unit should display department from z-table created not default value which it picks up..
According to my understanding there is BAPI BAPI_EMPLOYEE_GETDATA which does fetching of data, thus anything needs to be done with this BAPI. or is there any other simple way to do this...

Jigar Oza.

Who's who as WDA ESS?

Hi there,
I am a brand new IDES Enh. Pack 5 system that I am trying to convince to show me how the Who's Who employee self service works. Today we have a system with Enh. Pack 3 with all our employee data loaded, but we have not configured employee self services as we do not have a java based system to deploy it on.
As a proof of concept and to convince the correct people that we need to upgrade to Enh. Pack 5 sooner rather than later I would really like to be able to show a demo of the Who's Who application. But how can I demonstrate it? It seems like the IDES system has a number of employees defined in client 800, so the question that remains is only what type of configuration is missing. I have already googled quite a bit to try to find a configuration guide or a how to, but all the documentation that I can find relate to the java version of the ESS.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Anders

You have to Java version, as this WHOs WHO is not yet available in WD ABAP , it should be in EHP6
Please refer the above forum
Yes this is not available, only in add on you have it
In Enhancement Package 5 for SAP ERP 6.0, we have not delivered
Who's who and Org Chart applications based on Web Dynpro ABAP.
You can continue using the WebDynpro JAVA applications, for
more information on the release please refer the note 1450179.
ie
Services available in Employee self-service (WDA) is listed here:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_05/helpdata/en/cd/1c7eb674214a3b
8b62e6fe7f4bb0cf/frameset.htm
Please feel free to look into the documentation above.
For your convinience I listed some details here:
Some of the WD JAVA applications which do not yet have coverage in the
new WD ABAP based ESS are:
- Employee Search
- Who is who
- Enrollment and related applications (Enrollment, Open enrollment,
Participation overview, Benefits participation)
- Skills Profile and Matchup
- Sample processes for "Life and work events"

ESS / MSS Payslip & Who's Who Urgent

Hi Gurus,
Please clarify me that what will be minimum configuration required for the Payslip and Who's Who.
That is the very least configuration that will enable the service to work.
If possible please send me some docs to [email protected]
The system is ECC6
Thanks in advance
J.Sera

Hi,
Here is the document which will help you with the ESS configuration
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/21eb036a-0a01-0010-25a3-b2224432640a
After configuring, map the EP user to an employee at the backend thru infotype 0105.This is enough for who's who to work.

Who's Who customizing in ESS

Hi,
We are using portal 6.0 SP17, with ECC 5.0 and the Web Dynpro based ESS applications.
1)
Is it possible to customize the fields that are displayed in the standard application, without Java coding ?
If not, can someone give me a hint of how to do that. Is it required to use the JDI -environment, or is there a easier way to do it ?
Best Regards,
Kristian Rantakoski

Yes....the selection, results and detail fields can all be HIGHLY customized all through the IMG in the backend system. You (or whoever is handling this) will find it under the ESS IMG section. The fields you can choose from all come from a standard SAP HR query. If you need other fields, you can create a modified "Z" version of that query and use it. Also, the fields for the detail tab will also be the ones that show up in the "Change own data" service for Who's Who. It will be confusing since the config you do in the "ITS services" section of ESS config will actually affect the Webdynpro versions too. 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.

Is this becasue of the unavailability of change authorization?
We have'nt actually started the config.

Hi,
This is because you have to give end user permissions for the portal user ot access the objects.This is an issue with permission.
refer the note 939412 for solution.

Who's Who in ESS for ERP 2005

Hi Experts,
I have done the technical configuration for BP for ESS (mySAP ERP2005) as per the link and other documents in SDN
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/f6/263359f8c14ef98384ae7a2becd156/frameset.htm
I can see the ESS Home Page in the Portal using the ESSUSER with the required authorizations.
But on clicking Who's who, I do not see anything, no iview, no error but a blank page.
The Who's Who customizing is done in backend but stilll the blank page.
Please advise.
