Extracting employee photo to BW

Hi Experts,
Is there a method avialble to extract the employee photo uploaded in SAP HR to BW?
My requriement is to display employee photo against peronnel number in xcelsius.
Regards,
Arun.

Hi Arun,
I am not sure if you can extract the image directly from SAP HR to BW or not. But surely you can upload the required image in SAP BW using SE80 transaction.
Se80->mime repository->sap( folder)->BW->customer->images->right click on image folder and upload your images.
Afterward I am not sure how you can use it in BEX query or xcelsius.

Extract the photo in ArchiveLink and save the file in a path of the server

Hi all,
I need extract the photo file in SAP HCM, object HRIEMPFOTO, and save as a file in a path of the application server, can someone help me how can I do??
thanks!!!
Best Regards,
Félix

Hi Felix,
You should use archive link to upload employee photos by using OAXX transactions. In transaction PA30, you can use Extract->Dispaly all facsimiles to display the photo. Please find further information in the online help :

Get employee photos

Hello everyone,
I have a java portal that comunicates with SAP to use a few RFC functions.
I would like to use the employee photos that we can see on transaction pa30 to appear on my website.
Is there a specific url, table, or something like that, from where i can extract path info from my jpeg files that were uploaded?

Still no help... Is it impossible to extract the path of a image file via any ABAP function?
I mean... look at a web page. You only have to right-click->properties, et voilá. There's your url pathway.
Can we do anything like this here ?

HT2479 I'm trying to extract a photo clip from my video. How do I do that?

I just took a video of my daughter's new wine and cheese shop. She loved it and wanted a picture of her that is in the movie. Can I extract a photo clip from the movie? I can't figure out how to do it and would love some help. Thanks.

Or just play back in full screen and pause the video on the section you want and take a screen shot(Shift CMD + 3).
Another thing you can do is Export using Quicktime from the Share menu and change the Export setting to Movie to Image Sequence. Make sure you export into a folder as you will get approx 30 images for every second of video you export. I would recommend creating a new project and just adding a couple seconds of the video clip around the spot that has the image you want then export Movie to Image Sequence (into a folder).

Calling infotype 0002 in ALV report for showing employee photo

Hi all,
The requirment from business side is a report in which employees personal data shuold be shown with employee photo, I had tried for employee photo in ALV report but it didnt sucessed, then I went for other solution like calling transaction in ALV report.
In this case I am calling Infotype 0002 but the issue is that the transaction PA20 is coming with PERNR but I am not able to go directlly to infotype which shows employee Photo,please suggest any solution.
Thaks.

Hi Jay,
It is possible. Please refer the syntax for the CALL TRANSACTION
CALL TRANSACTION ta { [AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN]
                    | [USING bdc_tab [bdc_options]] }.
You can do a recording till the required page comes & call the transaction accordingly. Hope, you are aware about the same.
For example, I just had a solution to go to the roles tab in the user profile and I did as below:
    CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
    wa_bdcdata-program = 'SAPLSUU5'.
    wa_bdcdata-dynpro   = '0050'.
    wa_bdcdata-dynbegin = k_ok.
    APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
    CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
    wa_bdcdata-fnam = 'BDC_CURSOR'.
    wa_bdcdata-fval   = 'USR02-BNAME'.
    APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
    CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
    wa_bdcdata-fnam = 'USR02-BNAME'.
    wa_bdcdata-fval   = g_value.
    APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
    CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
    wa_bdcdata-fnam = 'BDC_OKCODE'.
    wa_bdcdata-fval   = 'SHOW'.
    APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
    CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
    wa_bdcdata-program = 'SAPLSUU5'.
    wa_bdcdata-dynpro   = '0100'.
    wa_bdcdata-dynbegin = k_ok.
    APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
    CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
    wa_bdcdata-fnam = 'BDC_OKCODE'.
    wa_bdcdata-fval   = '=ACTG'.
    APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
    g_opt-dismode = 'E'.
    g_opt-defsize = k_ok.
*** if user click on the User Name, call SU01
    CALL TRANSACTION 'SU01' USING it_bdcdata
                OPTIONS FROM g_opt.

Dear Vinodh
Normally there might be many reasons for pics not getting displayed, as u have said that the photo is already visible in R/3 then u need to check the following things
1) check S_WFAR_OBJ authorization object has been maintained or not.
2) Access T-code PZUSWHO & check whether the following settings are maintained or not.
Check these links as it entails how to upload the Photos

Get employee photo and display the photo in external system.

Hi,
We start to work with the portal....We want an application that display the employee photo..
The photo is the same one that appear in pa20/30...
We create the photos in OAAD and have a table repository.
How from here i can use this to build a RFC that return "data"..that from the external system we can show the photo,
Thanks.

write a RFC which uses
'HR_IMAGE_EXISTS' to get the image document id and then use 'ALINK_RFC_TABLE_GET' to image in JPG format convert the returned RAW table to xstring format using SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING pass the resulting xstring as the export parameter of this RFC .
portal application can now use this xsring to render the image.

Employee photo is not updated in ESS Who's who service

hi colleagues,
i am facing an error when i am trying to update the employee photos in the who's who service of ESS.
when new photos are added against an employee number via tcode OAAD in the ECC system, they are updated against the record and can be seen in tcode PA20. however, the new photos are not getting updated in the who's who screen. we have tried clearing the cache (figuring there might be a problem with the browser.... we are using IE 7.0) but were still unsuccessful.
any advice will be greatly appreciated.
thanx,
Amer

hello deb,
already did.... not working there as well. except for the first time during logon, it does not ask for any user id or password while viewing the photo in the portal. the photo gets updated in PA20, PA30 but does not get refreshed in the portal. the portal shows the same old photo.
any comments or advice would be helpful.
thanx...

Employee Photo Options?

All,
We are currently using a simple web repository to surface employee photos in SAP and non-sap content. We've configured ArchiveLink based employee photos in our sandbox environment and have an idea how that works. On one hand we'd like to pursue a standard SAP based solution for photos but are concerned that performance could suffer as the biggest consumer of our employee photos is SharePoint and SharePoint Search, sometimes serving up 25-100 photos per page. Does anyone have any experience with performance issues with employee photos in ArchiveLink? The archive.dll will prevent browser caching being a benefit. Any experiences in this area?
Also, what other options have been explored? Is anyone aware of any non-ArchiveLink based architectures that would be SAP supported, (work with sap content out of the box, but be performance friendly for O-SAP apps)? Anyone have experiences with employee photo architectures with Active Directory based photos or web repository, again that would be SAP supported and work with SAP content out of the box?
Any insights, links would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Doug

Two SAP "ways" that are supported with standard services (like Who's Who from ESS)...
1. ArchiveLink (as you are well aware)
2. Make use of KM from the portal (since KM is basically a content server plus much more)...(*there is a portal equivalent to Who's Who that you can find info on)
#2 makes it much better from a performance standpoint. Also, SharePoint should be able to utilize the same repository.
