Exit for Aprove Working Times (RCATS_APPROVE_ACTIVITIES)

1)I would like to create an intermediate status between 20 and 30 at the approval process. For that I have created another field in the customer include table CATSDB to fill when the user press the approval button. Thus I need a user exit at the 'USER COMMAND' stage or later. Can I use BADI CATS_REPORTING for that? As I have noticed the methods for this BADI are called before the ALV display and not after the user entry. Is there any way to do it.
2) Is it possible to make no display the 'delete' and 'change data' buttons of the RCATS_APPROVE_ACTIVITIES report?
Thank you

How to change colors for record working time calendar

Hi,
I would like to change the colors in the calendar displayed in record working time based on some conditions.
How do i do that is there any BADI associated with that
Thanks
Bala Duvvuri

Hi Bala ,
Yes its possible to change that .
You need to implement BADI for this ..
BADI name : "PT_ABS_REQ"
In the BADI "PT_ABS_REQ" interface "IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ" you can find the method
"SET_CALENDAR_COLOR" in that you can set the colure for the Absent type ......
Adjust Colors of Calendar and Team Calendar
Functionality
You can use this method to change the colors in the team calendar.
In the standard system, the different statuses for requests have different colors. You can use this method to differentiate the colors of requests depending on the following aspects:
Status of requests (status)
Action that an employee has executed: new request, delete, change (UIA operation)
Subtype of absence (SUBTY)
Full-day or partial-day absence (BEGMT, where BEGMT = 0 signifies a full-day absence)
Application mode ( mode). You specify the application mode in the Select Employees for the Team Calendar IMG activity.
Color Display of Status of Leave Requests(COLORS_ACTIVE). You specify this status in the Specify How Leave Is Displayed and Default Values IMG activity.
Available Colors
You have a choice of 16 colors. The 16 colors are hard coded, that is, you cannot change them or add other ones.
The available colors are stored with their RGB value as constants of the CL_PT_REQ_CONST class. Use these constants if you want to change the colors.
Notes
If you change the colors in the team calendar, you should also adapt the legend accordingly. You can use the Adjust Legend for Calendar and Team Calendar method to do so.
Hope this work!!!

Authorizations for Record Working Time

hi experts,
I assigned the copied role Z_SAP_EMPLOYEE_ERP to a ESS user on R/3 side. The user is trying to access Record Working Time web dynpro application on Portal. He gets an error "there is no authorization to this activity". Does the standard role SAP_EMPLOYEE_ROLE not have the required authorizations?
If not, what authroization is needed for accessing CATS Web Dynpro on portal?
I appreciate your help.
Regards

Hi
Also check these:
1. In IT105 create a record assigning the user id to the personnel number in subtype 0001.
2. Ensure that the profile you have provided in CVR parameter and the profile you have customized are one and the same. Else, SAP will default 'ESS' profile to the employee on Portal.
3. If the above doesn't work out, create a new user in HRUSER - tcode, assign proper R/3 & ESS roles, parameter and then test.
If this helps, pl do reward.
Thanks

Workitems not showing up in UWL of Subsitute for approve working time

Hi All,
We have ECC 6.0, EP 7.0, ESS and MSS BP 1.0 and we have the following requirement.
We are using approve working time functionality to approve deviations for Employees.The approval is done in single step i.e by immediate Line manager .
The Workflow task used in the CATS profile is TS20000460.
The problem is that we cannot receive the substituted Manager's workitems in the substitute's UWL; we can also see the filters which allows us to filter off the workitems for "My Items" and "Items on Behalf Of.....".
Can anyone help me out with what needs to be done . Is there some customizing settings needed or some other workflow task which i need to use.
Thanks a lot,
Manish

Hi siddarth
Thanks for the reply ..
I understand the point and had already tried doing the Substitution from the UWL itself.But the problem is that after doing the sunstituion and making it active we are still not able to recieve the workitems in the substitute's UWL.
Cud this be problem with the Workflow task . If yes please let me know if there is one which i can use or if there is something to be done with the settings and activation of the UWL's .
Regards
Manish

PA30 User exit for Creating work tax area

Hi all,
I have a requirement to create a work tax area for personnel with allocation percent is allowed more than 100% for two particular tax areas.
For this I tried to use the user exit EXIT_SAPFP50M_002. In that user exit I have written the condition if the tax area is one of the two areas and the allocation percentage is greater than 100% then skip the validation it is doing currently. But this user exit is not called when I run the program. I ran in the debug mode to see if it is called. But it is not called.
Currently if I enter allocation percentage greater than 100% then it will fire a dialogue message box saying Work percentage cannot be greater than 100% Change existing records.
So I am wondering if it is the correct user exit to use. Can you help?
Thanks for the great help.
Sobhan.

Hi sobhan,
1. ideally, this is the correct exit.
2. for all infotypes, on saving,
   this is called.
3. to check,
   just give some MESSAGE statement
   (without any If or without any logic
   and without any checking of infotype)
4. From that we will come to know,
if this is really getting called or not.
5. Also make sure, the PROJECT (CMOD)
is activated for this enhancement.

ESS Record Working Time .. Restrict Time Entry with Relative limit

Hi SDN Users,
We are using ERP 2005 and EP 7.0 with webdynpro java ESS applications for Time, Travel and Personal Information.
In the ESS Record Working Time application, a user can scroll to any date he wants in the past or in the future and record/edit working times. The application does not take into consideration the setting made in the time entry profile for relative limit.
Please suggest the best way I can include this in the webdynpro application for Record Working Time. (in other words I would like to restrict the users to NOT be able to scroll before and later than 1 week from the current week).
Can this be achieved by modifying any ABAP program / BADI / User Exit (OR)
Would this require Webdynpro Code changes ?
Please suggest some changes if any one has gone through a similar requirement.
Thank You,
Salome

Hello Salome ,
You can use the following way out for this :
Lets say you want to allow one week before Begda , rest entries not allowed .
1. VcCatRecordentry View - make a method called dateValid(); this would return true / flase
we can get begda and endda.
wdcontext.currentcontextelement.gettimesheetBegda();
wdcontext.currentcontextelement.gettimesheetendda();
Date sysDate = new Date(Calendar.getInstance().getTimeInMillis());
int sysDay = sysDate.getDay();
2. Instantiate the Calendar Calendar c1 = new GregorianCalendar();
3. c1.add(c1.DATE,-7);
Date dt_end = c1.getTime();
now compare the dt_end to begda if it return >0
then in on action navigation nxt - report exception
this would work , since I did the same and it worked absolutely well for me .

HR Securtity Issue with CATS_APPR_LITE - Approve Working Times and query

hi Gurus
here is the our issue :
1. User need access to do timekeep as well as query . In order to process the time keep task one of the transaction used in the process is CATS_APPR_LITE which requires P_ABAP in the role or by transaction ( Se93 added P_abap object) .
From the query side role this should not have P_ABAP since giving access to this will have access to sensitive data even though the roles are restricted by Personal area or structural authorisation.
If both roles are assigned to users then P_ABAP from the timekeep role will overwrite the query roles and users get access to data for which they should not see .
We have created dual sign on to avoid this task but is there a better way that users can do this task by just single id.
any suggestions

Hello,
CATS_APPR_LITE is meant for Time Approval
CATS_DA is meant for Display Working Times.
Can you ellaborate more if this does not solve your inquiry?
Thanks.

How to implement Manager Selfservice - Recording Working Time - BP

Hi!
I would like to have a stepby step approach to implement business package for recording working time.
What I need is the following information?
1. Pre-requisites
2. How to create the iview ?
3. What R3 configurations need?
you can email if you have good documentation on this to [email protected]
Thank you
Ramesh

The primary limitation you will encounter when trying to do high speed
digital I/O using your E-Series hardware is that the digital lines are
all software timed. This means that for each and every digital
read it is necessary for your software to issue a command to your
hardware, read a single point, then receive the response from the
board. This prevents you from performing digital operations at
very high speed. In general, I would say that 100 microseconds is
a very good response using software-timed digital I/O on a Windows
computer.
It is difficult to make a good recommendation without more detail about
what you are trying to do. You may need to consider switching to
a Real-Time operating system, or upgrading your DAQ hardware to a board
that will allow you to time your digital acquisitions on the board
itself. These devices, such as the m-Series DAQ or the PCI-653x
series, would allow you to use hardware triggers for your digital
acquisitions, change detection, and buffered data acquisitions to
reduce the software overhead involved in a rapid acquisition.

Blank screen while release working time

Hi,
One particular employee in Prod system (ESS Portal), is getting a blank screen while releasing his working time. (It is working fine for all other users)
I did following things
1. User has all the right master data (backend data)
2. Did a backend trace (ST01/ST05), and find that the RFC for releasing working time is not getting triggered for this user. (It is triggering and working as required for all other users)
3. In backend trace did not find any valid authorization failures.
Please suggest.
Thanks
Krishna

maybe he doesnt have enough portal authorizations. check by giving him the administrator portal role and try again.

Working Time sub area not visiable Ess

We are using the ESS portal (versions ERP 2005 along with ECC6) for Recording Working Time by our employees.
After loading Enhancement Pack 3 (EP3) the Working Time subarea has disappeared from the Working Time area and we canu2019t figure out why. The Working Time area is there as are other Working Time sub areas.
We have checked the IMG configuration and donu2019t see anything unusual and it looks just like it did before EP3 and matches the configuration in the production system. The Working Time area is defined and assigned and we are using the default Worktime_Subworktime_2005 define and assign settings. We have also checked the configuration in Portal Content Administration and can not identify a cause. When a preview button is pushed in Content Administration the Working Time sub area does not show there either.
We have not done any configuration for EP3, just trying to see everything first and confirm that they are still working.
Ideas?

Hello James,
How did you configure Working Time proxy?
I encounter the same issue as you : Subarea "Record Working Time" not visible.
Thx for your answer,

Working time...

Hi,
In IMG orgnization managment i found working time which is used for defaulting working times for organization unit,positions or work centers.
so plz tell me what is the exact use of this & where can we see the effect of it.
is it possible to use this setting instead of IT 0007 for assignment of planned working time to positions?????
plz rply back.

IT 1011 is working time infotype under OM.This is used for the organizational objects (organizational units, positions, work centers) in your enterprise, if you do not want to restrict working times with rule values. In this way, you can specify a specific working time for individual positions or organizational units and their subordinate organizational objects.
You can define working times of subordinate positions according to the inheritance principle using organizational units. By defining work schedule groups, you can determine, according to which employee group or subtype a position belongs to, the working time that it is assigned.
The advantage of this is that if the working time of several positions change, there is less data input if all the positions are assigned to a work schedule group.
However you should use SCHKZ to assign work schedule to employee. This is helpful since you can make decision criterias as per your client need.
Hope this help. Pls assign points if this helps you.

Adobe PDF won't print non-working time colour in MS Project

Adobe PDF won't print the colour chosen for non-working times in MS Project. I have tried changing the colour, changing the style, moving non-working time in front of tasks and have fiddled with the printer properties, all to no avail. It ignores whatever style I have for non-working time and makes a blank space, although it will take gridline changes . . . . please help!
Shevaun

Thank you for providing the suggestion and the Cleanup tools, however they did not help.
I ran each version of the cleanup tool, and for each I had it clean up Reader and Acrobat (i.e. 4 separate cleanup operations). I then rebooted the machine, and installed Reader 11.0.3.
Still had the same behavior: Reader will not print. I tried printing to a second printer (that is attached via USB)...and it did not work either. I also tried printing to a Cute PDF Writer print driver...and that did not work either. In each case, no print data made it to the Windows print queue (as demonstrated by watching the queue while printing.) No error was raised, but no print data was transmitted.
I then uninstalled Reader 11.0.3, rebooted, and re-installed Reader 9: printing works fine now.
There is definitely something in Reader 10 and Reader 11 that breaks printing in some environments. (As you alluded to...I have seen a number of postings online about printing problems in Reader.)
More details about my environment:
Windows 7 Professional N (Version 6.1, Build 7601: Service Pack 1)
VMWare virtual machine
Two virtual CPUs (each: Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.67 GHz, 2673 Mhz, 1 core, 1 Logicial Processor)
Hardware Abstraction Layer: 6.1.7601.17514

MSS Record Working Times header

I am losing the employee's name in the screen header when I use a custom Webdynpro Application Configuration for Record Working Times on Behalf of Employee in MSS.
Here is what I've done...
The ZHRESS_AC_CATS_1_CP_1 in the screenshot below is an exact copy of HRESS_AC_CATS_1. I did not make any changes to it.
When I specify the standard HRESS_AC_CATS_1 in the Launchpad:
This is what the Record Working Times header looks like:
But when I specify ZHRESS_AC_CATS_1_CP_1 (EXACT copy of HRESS_AC_CATS_1) in the Launchpad:

Does anyone know why I'm losing the employee's name, and how I get it back?

I guess this is a limitation of CATS application.

Extra fields in search help window in Record working time EHP5

Hi Experts,
Can you please let me know how to add additional fields/select options in search help window for Record Working Time ?
My system is EHP5 NW 7.02
I have added the custom search help for the respective filed in table " TCATS_SHLP_ITS".
I can see this table is having entry for only 4 selection options and 6 value fields for search help display.
But in my custom search help programme is having 8 select options(for advance search) and 10 display fields on the search window. It's working from CAT2 transaction but when I am running through webdynpro timesheet, I can only get 4 select options and 6 value fields.
Please let me know how to make the other fields available.
Thanks in advance.
Sonia

Hi Siddharth,
Thanks for your response. In that modify possible entries screen (Details view) I can see the search help is only having 4 select options and 6 display fields.
So as per my understanding max 6 display fields/4 select options can only be displayed on search window.
My requirement is to display more fields on search help OVS window.
Can you please suggest.
Thanks ,
Sonia
