HCM Process and Forms FPM Forms Process Browser

Hello Everyone,
I'm a Little bit confused. As in the "old Adobe Forms" days there was the Process Browser for Employee's and Managers to track the Requests they have been created. Now with the "new FPM Forms" days all the created Requests are not shown in the Process Browser any more. I debugged the Web Dynpro Application and found the code where all FPM Forms get excluded. Is there a new Application to track down the created Processes or is there no? Or maybe is there a hole new way to see the created Processes.
I really would appreciate if someone could give me an advice. Otherwise I have to write my own Process Browser Application.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Tobias

Hello Everyone,
now I can allready update my own Question with new informations.
As I keept looking around I found out more. Actually there is a "Process Browser" for the "new FPM Forms", as there is a Process Lane in the HCM Landing Page. First Problem was that SAP Standard only includes this Lane for the HR Profesinal Landing Page. So I created my own Page for Employee Self-Services and added the Process Chip.
I don't like the pre-filter Settings for the overview because the OData Service for the Overview only selects all Processes which have the Effective-Date between dueday - dueday + 1 week (if we think about a Process for a Bonus payment which will take effect next month the Manager is never gone see it in the overview until a week before the month ends). So I have to keep looking if I can set this via a Parameter.
So when opening the Process Lane and change the Filter values I see the Processes in a nice way and even can open the Form and see Details like the Process Steps etc.
BUT, my Question is still not answerd. What to do when somebody doesn't want to use the Landing Page? Some Company's can't use the Landing Page because of different reasons (roleout of new Browser is to fare in the future etc.)
This can't be the only way of getting access to ongoing Processes, or is it?
Once again, thanks a lot in advance for any advices.
Best regards,
Tobias

Flash installer and uninstaller stays in processes and keeps laptop form going to standby

i have a fujitsu lifebook t-series 4020d and any time in i have to install flash player or inunstall it it stays in processes and makes it so it won't go into standby till you go to task manager and end the process. my brother has the same laptop and the same thing happens to his. just seeing if this bug was reported. hopefully this can be fixed because it is kinda anoying with all these updates that seem to happen.

oh sorry it is winxp tablet edition and firefox 3.6.18. this is not a browser issue though it is a flash installer/uninstaller issue. it should never stay in the processes after it is finished i got the installer and uninstaller from this web site and it does updates when the comptuer is restarted. after the update is done it stays in the processes and when you try and put comptuer to sleep, standby, even shutting down and restarting you have to go to task manager and en the flahs installer it used. if you try to standby,sleep,restart,shutdown it don't do it. as soon as you end the flash process it goes to standby,sleep,restart,shutdown if that bmakes sense. it hangs on the installer.

Ho to create Mass Processing and jobs for monthly process

Hi Gurus,
I had created all activities and jobs for background run and my question is 1. how to create for mass process ?
2.Do i need to create process chains for background run for every month ?
3. How to create parallel processing as well/
Please let me know and thanks for your answers.
Regards,
Raj

Hi Raj,
Here is the link to saphelp documentation for <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/02/7650d6353611d398290000e8a49608/frameset.htm">mass processing</a>.
You can use a process chain and it is much easier if you want to repeat that periodically and integrate with the process steps. You have the option of creating parallel processes in process chains as well.
Here is the link to <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/81/ae653fac7ab21ae10000000a114084/frameset.htm">process chains</a>.
Hope this helps.

Concepts about Archieving process and Check point Background process

I am still going through Oracle Architecture and presently on the background oracle process. I got struck about the function of Checkpoint process and how archieving process occurs. Any inputs from my friends here will be highly appreciated.

Any inputs from my friends here will be highly appreciated. Checkpoint is an act of cleaning the dirty blocks from buffer cache to disks in order to make fast recovery(if happens) if crash happens. Having said this, this process will make sure that oracle has to recovery minimum numbers of dirty block on instance recovery phase. So there is periodic flushing of dirty blocks from buffer cache to disks. In this periodic time CKPT process will post to DBWR process to write out the dirty blocks to disks. This is basically called the incremental checkpointing.
In incremental checkpointing oracle will keep the record of most oldest block in controlfile and from this block (which is also called RBA), oracle will start recovering dirty blocks.
There is also a full checkpoint in oracle which happen when redolog switch
Now coming to archiving: An archive log is a copy of redo log files, it includes the sequence number and redo entries. Whenever there is a log switch (redo log files gets filled in circular fashion), then arch process will start archive filled redo log file. So during this process arch process will read the filled redo log files and make the copy of it in archive file. LGWR cannot write this filled redo file until ans unless arch process completes copying of redolog entries to archive log file.
Archive log files are required for recovery if in future we wish to recover database during media/datafile/controlfile failure.

How to create Digital Personnel Foile for HCM Processes and Forms

Hi I am creating HCM Processes and Forms using FPM Forms. Now to print these forms Alternate Adobe forms also developed. But once the entire process is completed by HR Admin and in future if they want to see the already processed form and if they want to take print out they should be able to do it. So, based on some knowledge I am assuming we can achieve this by Digital Personnel file creation. Can any one please confirm. Whether they can open already processed form and how to get print these forms as this is FPM form and no print option is available.
In order to configure DPF, can any one share step by step procedure to configure DPF. I dont have any idea on SAP Records Management as I felt this basic is required. Friends help me here.
Regards,
Nayani.

This seems possible.
Refer here ... Print Form (FPM Form Type Only) - HCM Processes and Forms - SAP Library
For DPF - ensure you have used the anchor correctly refer Save PDF file added to processes and forms WDA
Regarding the possibility of being able to print it from process browser - I am not sure.
Process browser for latest release is documented here...

Custom iviews in HCM process and forms

Hi ,
We are using EhP4 in ECC and E-Recruiting systems.
We want to use the customized requisition request process in HCM Processes and Forms.We have developed a adobe interactive form with webdynpro for ABAP along with some workflow.
I want to link these in via the HCM Processes and Forms framework so that they will be called from the standard screen in MSS (Manager Services > My Requisitions > Create New Requisition Request).
what is the best way to implement these customizations? Is there any way to link these applications in HCM forms in SAP Portal.
Thanks,
Lina

There are 2 ways you can accomplish depending on your requirement. The current process group getting called when create requisition is selected is H1NB. If you want to keep the existing processes and just add your process to the list, then you will need have the developer add the process group H1NB to the custom forms. If you only want to disply your forms, you may have to create a new process group in the IMG under Personnel Management>HR Administrative Services. Once you have defined the new group, the developer will have to link the custom forms to the new group. Additionally, you will have to change the application parameters within the Portal on the Iview for Create Requisition request on the Manager Self-Service role from the standard parameter PROCESS_GROUP=H1NB to PROCESS_GROUP=CUSTOMGROUPCREATED. Once these steps have been completed, you should now see your custom forms within the launcher.
Cheers,
Mike

Trouble invoking FPM based processes through EIC activity

Hi All,
We are implementing HR EIC module integrating with HCM process and forms on NWBC. We are using FPM based forms. The standard configuration given in EIC to invoke forms is best suitable for Adobe forms but not FPM. Standard config. uses 'ASR_PROCESS_EXECUTE'. Where as for FPM forms we need to invoke with 'ASR_PROCESS_EXECUTE_OVP' with config 'ASR_PROCESS_EXECUTE_OVP_CFG'.
Through some custom config. on EIC (Transaction launcher) we are able to start this process, but ending up with error "PROCESS DOES NOT EXIST".
But for EIC, the agent creates an activity for employee and then invokes the process selecting from list of processes assigned his role as initiator. But with 'ASR_PROCESS_EXECUTE_OVP', I am not able to get the process list.
Anybody please advise?
Thanks,
Hareesh K

Hi Sahir, yes this process has that role.
Hi Siddharth,
Yes I have activated business function 'HCM_SSC_EIC_2', we have not implemented E-REC.
I am working on 'Employee interaction Center (EIC)' module. If you call transaction HREIC you can see this application. But it needs some initial config of EIC module.
On EIC we create an activity for employee request and we can initiate process through that activity. To initiate the process SAP using application 'HRASR_PROCESS_EXECUTE'. You can check in method CL_HREIC_PROCESSSTART->BUILD_OTHER_URL. This application suitable for ADOBE forms. ADOBE form processes are initiated and completed successfully. Once process completed it will be linked to EIC activity automatically.
Unlike Adobe forms the FPM form processes are not smooth. I copied this class and updated with ASR_PROCESS_EXECUTE_OVP, but I'm getting the error.
I got a breakthrough that I got process started with FPM form but once process is completed, it is not linked with the activity through which it is started.

Creating Search Help for Web Dynpro ABAP (FPM) Forms

Dear All ,
I am very new with SAP HCM P&F with FPM form. I am stuck with field search help functionality in FPM form. I have created on search help using
Web dynpro component to get all travel requests for all employees and linked it to FPM form field and its working fine....
But.... my requirement is how to filter travel request based on the PERNR (employee number) field in FPM form.
I think it can be achieved by using importing parameter LISTENER of interface IF_WD_VALUE_HELP_LISTENER but I am clueless how to pass PERNR to this interface to get travel requests for only employee number in field PERNR.
Kindly help me out in this issue.
Chohan

Use this code in set_value_help_listener
for e.g to read effective date.
wd_this->help_listener->f4_context_element->get_attribute( EXPORTING name = 'EFFECTIVE_DATE' IMPORTING value = wd_this->gv_eff_date ).

Halt/stop a process and then resume again

Hi frns,
I m implementing an application in which i want to add a specila functionality which is described as below :
suppose there is a folder and it contains 5 files.
FOLDER
- FILE 1
- FILE 2
- FILE 3
- FILE 4
- FILE 5
Now I have to send the folder to another pc in internet or any network.
So i will read the contents of all the files and send it to the server.
For this I will zip the folder (with all inside files being zipped) and then read the file in buffer and send to the othere computer.
Now the trouble is that if while zipping the folder; I have zipped FILE 1, FILE 2 and then while zipping FILE 3 there is some problem and the pc gets shutdown or the electricity is no more. So when the pc restarts I want to restart the process of zipping the file FILE 3 and then FILE 4 , FILE 5. and then send to the server.
So wht i am saying is that we should be able to store the status of every step and if there is some interruption in the process and then it restarts again then the status should be resumed and started at that point.
For this, I have one solution that :
when ever a file is being zipped in I will make one file and store the status that FILE 1 is zipped ,then FILE 2 zipped, ie.
FILE 1 ZIP START
FILE 1 ZIP FINISH
FILE 2 ZIP START
FILE 2 ZIP FINISH
and if process stops during zip of FILE 3 then the the status file will contain the entry
FILE 3 ZIP START
it will not contain the FINISH entry.
Now if the process shuts down and restarts I will read the file and see the status for the zipping process.
So I will find that there is no entry for FILE 3 FINISH .so I will start from FILE 3 ZIP process and then complete the process.
This should happen for every step (after zip of FILE 1 or 2 or 3 ..........., or some other task)
But the problem is that this process of handling the process resuming is tedious and will be inefficient when there are so many processes.
So can anyone tell me that is there any other way to do this or is there any inbuilt facility in java to handle such problems.
Thanks for your time and consideration
Sipin

Hi,
You probably need that file that you are talking about (transaction log of whatever you want to call it) but I don't understand why you need to write down the start info. Finished is enough.

Process and Thread

I am new to the servlet and JSP technology.It is said that "Servlets and CGI differ mainly in Process and Thread.CGI used processes and Servlet technology uses Threads".I would like to know what exacly is the meaning of a process and a thread.How do we say that a process uses higher resources and hence a higher resource and memory overhead.
What do we exactly mean by thread and how r they using less resources?When we say Thread t=new Thread(); what exactly is happening inside?

A thread runs with in the context of the JVM process.
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/threads/definition.html
A process is the running of an executable. A cgi can be a C .exe file or a perl script run under perl.exe.
The thread is faster because the jvm process has been loaded into memory and initialized. For each cgi call the operating system has to load the code into memeory and intialize all the variables and resources.

Diff between Processing and Execution

Could you please Help Me??
what is synchronous processing and Execution.

hi
synchronous processing is that in which the progaram can not continue to execute until u get the response from it.
execution is normal execution of the prgram which can be either synchronous and asynchronous.
<b>example</b>
data: oref type ref to CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_FUNC,
      text type string .
try.
CALL FUNCTION 'ABAP4_CALL_TRANSACTION'
EXPORTING
    tcode                   = 'SM59'"
"transaction sm59 opens in same session
EXCEPTIONS
    call_transaction_denied = 1
    tcode_invalid           = 2
    OTHERS                  = 3.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
CASE sy-subrc.
when 1.
    WRITE :/ 'call transaction denied'.
WHEN 2.
    WRITE :/ ' transaction doesnot exist'.
ENDCASE.
catch CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_FUNC into oref.
text = oref->get_text( ).
endtry.
WRITE / text.
WRITE: / 'End Of Demo For Synchronous RFC'.

Form mail form handler properties

I am a newbie to dreamweaver 8. I have created and posted a
basic contact form at
http://www.patentsmakemoney.com/ContactUs.html.
The form does not work. I want visitors to be able to send me some
basic information and eventually expand the form and create others
to allow visitors to fill out questionnaires.
The form has five properties. What should I type into each
other these five fields? My host won’t help.
1. Action
2. Method
3. Target
4. Class
5. Enctype

You're going to need to use some sort of server-side
scripting method to
process and handle your form. First step is to check with
your host to see
what they offer you. If your host offers PHP, have a look

Default value in dropdown field for FPM form in HCM Processes and forms

Hi Experts,
I am developing HCM Processes and forms using FPM forms and I had a dropdown list contains ten values. So, every time while opening the form first time, my dropdown field should be defaulted with fifth value from the list. How can we achieve this in dropdown field related to FPM Form.
Please guide me.
Regards,
Nayani.

You would have to assign the default value to one your custom generic services.
Regards.
PS: There are posts which talk about generic services , make yourself comfortable with the concept of generic services.
