ESS: Who's Who Authorization Checks

Hi,
I am testing the ESS iView (tcode PZ01) in the Portal and it seems to be restricting the search results by my authorizations. I am not getting a full list of people in the system. Anyone know how to turn-off this authorization check?
I noticed this only happens when I changed the ESS Who's Who customizing in the IMG for PZ01. If I uncheck the checkbox 'Output fields list', then it checks authorzations. I'm thinking this has something to do with using the BAPI vs. using the query infoset, as the documentation states.

Old post but I have had a similar issue and it was caused by P_ORGIN
Infortype 0105 subtype?????
Seem if the subtype is restricted then they are not displayed if subtype populated in the HR record.

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.

Please advise.

ESS Who's Who - remove link from Org Unit

In Who's Who (web dynpro version for ERP2004), I want to display Organizational Unit in an employee's detail. I do NOT however want the link to the org chart from this field to be available.
Is there a way to remove the link from the Organizational Unit field?
If not, then my issue is that the link does not work. I get the error "Service EMPLOYEE_ORGCHART_SERVICE does not exist" when I click on a link to the org chart from who's who. Can someone point towards some documentation on how to implement this?
Bottom line is that I either want to remove the link on Org Unit or make it work.
Has anyone had success with this?
Thank you!

Hi,
Please check the following in your customizing.

2.table V_T7XSSSERSRV

Please maintain the URL of PCD page as

in the table V_T7XSSSERRES for the key EMPLOYEE_ORGCHART_SERVICE and trythe application again.
As for removing the link, that will require a modification to the Who's Who web dynpro.

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.

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.

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.

Sharadha
