Flexible Appraisal template screen changes

Hi There,
We are using Standard Flexible appraisal template based appraisal Solution EHP4. Now we have created a template to cater multi level details for each Objective.
Structure looks like
Objetive 1 Add/Delete
   Objective details 1.1    Add/Delete
         Objective details 1.1.1    Add/Delete
               Objective details 1.1.1.1    Add/Delete
Objetive 2 Add/Delete
   Objective details 2.1    Add/Delete
         Objective details 2.1.1    Add/Delete
               Objective details 2.1.1.1    Add/Delete
For each of this level we will be able to create multiple entry.. i.e it can have
1.2.1
2.3.1.2 entries as well
Now we want to group these entries in group/so that we can enable one collapse/expand option for one objective and all its related components. I mean, we should be able to have a header_tray for objective 1 and ojective 2.. and so on.. so that when we close/open all objectives related to Objective 1, are open or collapse from single header tray.
I know we can use pre exit of wdmodify method for view VW_BODY_VIEW , but i am unable to conceptualize how do we create this group dynamically specially when each row is rendered one by one. and apart from numbering there is no other binding to structure related rows.
Thanks a lot for your ideas and suggestions.
Regards,
Sudhir

Hey Thanks Loan,
Will check on the first 2 solutions that you have given.
Regarding the third one, client requirment is that Criterion groups should come in tabs and the elements like objectives, KPI etc should come columnwise.The notes feild should be below the Goal etc.
have a glimpse of the UI that we are preferring to have. this is EHP6 Flexible appraisal template and we are trying to get a better look for our flexible appraisal template which is on EHP4.

Expand Collapse feature for notes in EHP4 Flexible appraisal Template

Hi gurus,
Do we have any solution to add Expand and collapse feature for notes in the flexible appraisal template on the portal. Meaning if the user enters a long note in the Notes feild the expand feature should give a bigger view of the notes feild...
Please refer to the screenshot below we have the notes feilds which have the scroll feature but cannot be expanded.

Hi Amrita,
If your question has been answered or whether the problem is solved, please mark the thread as answered.
Thank you,

EhP4 Flexible Appraisal template HTML errors

We are reviewing the new Web Dynpro Flexible Appriasal interface in EhP4. When we create a new appraisal from our current appraisal template, the html tags for each criteria (Description - Web Layout) are displayed along with the text on the new WD UI. There is also an error message under each criteria description. If we remove the html and just use the standard Description, the form displays correctly.
Is there a way/setting to make the WD UI in EhP4 display html?

Dear Scott,
I found that it supports XHTML, refer to
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/44/51f6dce86e14bce10000000a155369/content.htm
for the tags supported though it is not as rich as HTML.
Also, please implement SAP Note 1354044 if you are not in NW7.01 SP5.
Example :
<h1>
Hello World
</h1>
 
This is a test
 
remarks
Hope it helps a little.

HCM Flexible appraisal template how to read value from a dropdown selection

We are on EHP5 based HCM system.
We are trying to read a drop down value populated in appraisal document. This drop down value is coming from a scale type. Now when i check webdynro application HAP_DOCUMENT_BODY , method BUILD_DOCUMENT_BODY seems to be building the UI and populating all the values. Now I am trying to put a break point and capture instance of this drop down and then based on selected value of the drop down wanted to populate another field attached to same column. Well that will be number two but yeah first thing first, need to find how i can capture drop down instance.
Thanks for your time.
Rgds,

got a body hrhap00_value_det which can do the trick..but i am still trying to figure out how to pin point my element and then process the logic.

EHP4 flexible appraisal - How to use one coloum mutiple times

Dear PMS gurus,
I have a requirement as follows
Is there a possibility to use a column many times in a criterion group or criteria. Like,
There are five objectives created in a criterion group and all the fine objectives have to evaluated as
1. Target to be achieved
2. Actual target achieved
For every target we need to have these columns. Is there a possibility we can do that in the standard.
Also is there a possibility we can have the coloums in horizontal manner instead of the current vertical way the standard gives
Thanks
Balaji

Hi Balaji
Yes in a flexible appraisal template you can use a column more than once in a criterion group or criterion.
With regards to layout of Columns , no you cannot have it vertical instead of horizontal (unless you enhance the webdynpro) . If you wish to have it vertical , you can change the layout in the offline download of form which means the users will always have to work in the offline download mode and upload the appraisal doc. Also you need to check if the ADOBE user licenses allows you to change the offline ADOBE form as it needs ADOBE designer .
Hope this helps

Change the Appraisal Template in Mid of Year.

Hi All,
We want to edit the appraisal template which is being used in Production.
System is allowing to edit the template in development as there are no documents created. Once we transport the change to production what will be the implication.
Q1. Is it recommended to change the template after it is being used.
Q2. If really need to edit the template in mid of appraisal process how do we go forward.
Thanking you in advance.
Kamal R.

Hi Suresh,
We are on ECC 6.0 and SP 43.
We need to put some extra fields / Notes to the targets and extra sub statuses to correctly identify the condition.
But already appraisal process started and documents are created. Now we cannot either create the same documents in new template or postpone the appraisal template change to next year.
In this situation we decided to change the existing template. We want to know what will be the implications if we change the template in development and transport it to production???
Download and upload will create a new template which will not be useful for our case.
Thanking you in advance.
regards,
Kamal.

How to change appraiser / reviewer after creating the appraisal template

Hi All,
Once the Appraisal template created, if we have changes in appraiser / reviewer, how we can change the new names in the appraisal template in standard (other than T.Code: Phap_admin --> Change header data).
For eg., we have created a document for PERNR 1 on Apr 1st for 01.04.2014 to 31.03.2015 with appraiser as Mr. XYZ, on 01.05.2014 Mr. XYZ left and Mr. PQR replaced that position. In this case, how we can replace appraiser name for PERNR 1 as Mr. PQR in the appraisal template.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Venkat Nagam

Koushik,
Depending on the amount of customizations that you did, it may be easier to use the wizard to re-create the master-detail form & report.
If you still want to give it a go:
Assuming that you created the 2-page Master Detail report & form:
On the first page, you will have to chage the SQL to reflect the new table name. Once you do that, you'll have to re-create the link on the EMPID column.
On the second page, you'll need to do some more work. You'll have to change both Page Rendering Processes: Fetch Row from EMP and Get Next or Previous Primary Key. You'll then need to change the Page Processing Process: Process Row of EMP. Also, ensure that you have a proper Foreign Key relationship between EMP2 and DEPT (or your detail table).
Thanks,

Performance Management EHP4 Flexible Appraisal Process

Hi
We are in the process of building Performance Management using Enhancement Package 4 in ECC 6.0 in our test system. We have activiated flexible appraisal process and have completed the necessary config for ESS and MSS and appraisal template.
The MSS user can create the appraisal and define the objectives etc. The ESS user can view the appraisal but cannot add comments. On checking the appraisal template we have created a criteria for employee comments and an element called additional comments the tab 'element access' has been marked against the employee as follows:
Participant = Employee
Plan:Access = Change
Review Access = Change
Completed = Display
So we do not know why the ESS user cannot add comments.
Can anyone help on this issue?
Many thanks
Julie

Many thanks for this - we have checked the template level and have the column access for column 'objectives' (which is what is used at element level for appraisee comments) and if we change the column owner to 'appriaser and appraisee' it works for the appraisee but not for the appraiser. So we have a choice either it is set to appraiser and it works fine for the manager or we change it to appraisee and appraiser and it works fine for the ESS user.
Perhaps there is something else we need to check?

Flexible appraisal processes & predefined Performance Management process.

Good Night.
What is the diference between Flexible appraisal processes & predefined Performance Management process and in what case i have that use it?
Kind Regards-

Hi Juan,
Flexible Appraisal Porcess- As the name suggest you have the flexibilty to design your apparisal templates using the functionalities provided by SAP.
For eample: Using transaction PHAP_Catalog_PA or OOAM, you can design your apparsail template.
Predefined Appraisal Template: Again as the name suggest, SAP has pre-designed the strucure for defining the appraisal template. After clicking on the tab for Predefined appraisal process in IMG node, you will follow the number of screens in sequece.
Excellent material is available on SAP Servicemarketplace for Performance Appraisal in EHP4. Please check the link below:

Report template auto-changed to Default: HTML

I use the builtin report template "Default: Look 4" for all of my report screens and have a problem when importing the application with a new Application ID.
All reports that use the "Default: Look 4" template get changed to "Default HTML" in the new application and I have to manually change them all back again. This is a real pain because I use the application ID as a form of version control - the old versions of the application are auto-forwarded to the new one - so I end up having to do the change quite often.
Is there a way I can prevent the template from changing?

If it's any help to you, I did a bit of 'vanilla' testing ...
- create a new workspace TEST
- Edit Page 1 of the Sample Application
- Note that the region "My Top Orders" is using layout "template: 12. Standard, Alternating Row Colors"
- export the Sample Application
- import the Sample App with Auto-Assign New App ID selected
- Edit Page 1 in the new application and note that the region template for "My Top Orders" is still set to "template: 12. Standard, Alternating Row Colors"
- Change the template for "My Top Orders" to "default: Look 4"
- Export application
- Import application with auto-assigned AppID
- Edit "My Top Orders" and note that template is changed to "default: HTML (standard)"
The template is only changed when the exported application uses one of the "default: Look X" templates, other templates are not changed. Also, importing into the same or different application makes no difference, the template is still changed.
Thanks for your quick reply so far Scott!

Adding a box in Portal for Performance appraisal template

Dear Experts,
We have already released a performance appraisal template and its in production use for a while now.
Now, client wants to add 1 box titled 'Managers comment'. Since its already released template I cant make changes in it and add a criteria in the form of 'Managers Comment'. What is the solution?

Please advise.

you cant make changes to released template, if you do also, new changes wont be shown
Please refer the note 888650
