Hi,
You can hide this in two ways.
01. you have do the personalization clicking right mouse and hide the filed if you have admin rights, if not ask your portal admini.
02. if this is an webdynpro application, then via application configuaration or component configuaration, you can hide the element. ask youe webdynpro consultant.

Business Purpose field hidden in ESS portal for only one user

Hi All,
We have one wiered error while creating an expense reort in ESS portal and this is only for one employee out of 15,000 users.
Problem:
The additional information for expense type " Business Purpose " field was hidden for one employee and infact this is a required field and the rest of 14,999 users are able to see this filed while creating an expense report.
We wern't able to replicate the same error in other systems like QA/ Dev boxes with the same authorizations and even from the same laptop. This user got the same problem even by logging into different laptop.
SAP ECC 6.0 - Release 603 .
Any suggestions or ideas will appreciate.
Thanks
Anil

Thanks for the reply.
We do not normally assign the Content Admin role in EP to the end user and his back end ECC role and EP portal role is 100% equal to the other users. Audit won't allow to assign any special roles to end users.

Creating Ztable with fields for URL link and making available in ESS Portal

Hi,
I have a requirement for maintaining URLs in a table, The URL can be unspecified length.
Table maintainance should also be provided.
I have searched SDN for this. But could not find the appropriate solution.
I have to pass these entries to ESS Portal through RFC.
Can I pass a string more than 255 chars. as an export parameter in an RFC.

you can have the field length what ever you want, but you can;t maintain them using Tablemaintenance. you can do one thing using some bdc or upload program update the table with the url what ever you have.
and also you can pass the parameter with more than 255 chars length using the function module.

Field "Valid For" ESS Portal

Hi Guys,
Is there any of you encounter this field "Valid For" after you update your patch in your ESS portal? Its usually found below the Road Map.
Cheers,
Raynard

FYI
This field could be disabled for all users if the portal administrator
selects the corresponding iview and there he should select the field
and do a shiftctrlright click. This when done by the admin it will
hide this field for all users.
He could also login to portal and hide it there and once this is saved
this should get hidden for all users.

Integration of ESS Portal and SAP

Hi,
Project Systems report RPSISKB000 - Capacity Requirements Overview (t-code CN50N) is a report works correctly when analyzing time that was entered via the R/3 GUI in transaction CAT2 u2013 Time Sheet: Maintain Times. However, when executing against time entered via Employee Self Service (ESS) Time Sheet Entry, the u201CActual Worku201D hours are not pulling through to the report.
I believe this is because when time is entered via ESS Time Sheet Entry the fields Capacity ID (KAPID) and Split Number (SPLIT) in table CATSDB are not populated. These two fields are populated when time is entered via the R/3 GUI in transaction CAT2.
I need how to populate these two fields when time is entered via ESS. How data flows from ESS Portal to SAP.
How SAP and ESS Portal integrated for data flow in between.
Thanks,
Suresh

You have to ensure that these fields in The CATS profile are set as input in CAC2 ie fields should be input and not is display

Error in ESS portal

Hi Gurus,
We have a situation where users are trying to login to ESS portal and we can find below dump at backend in ST22.
Runtime Errors         OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED_NO
Exception              CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL
Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible. The current ABAP program "SAPLHRXSS_PER_MAC" had to be terminated because it has come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL', was not

Hello kitchlu
your issue is usually caused by some missing or improper customizing of backend table V_T7XSSPERSUBTYP.
Please refer to IMG activity below:
Personnel Management -> Employee Self-Service -> Service-Specific Settings -> Own Data -> Define Active Subtypes and Application Case (Maintenance view V_T7XSSPERSUBTYP). Use case for the relevant scenario has to be set to use case starting with A (i.e., use case A1, A2 or A3).
Please refer to the documentation of the field as well as below notes to make sure relevant entries are not missing. Please make sure that the value of them are correct according to above comments:

Hide the start time and end time in ESS portal

Experts,
We have a requirement to hide the Start time and End time on the header section of the travel request / expense sheet in the ESS portal. I have searched through the configuration and found several place to hide the start time and end time of segment yet these have no impact on the porta start and end time fields.
Please Advise.
Best Regards,
Martin Weakley

Hi Martin,
you can achieve this with administrative personalisation. In portal content navigate to the role where you deltalinked your iView, click "preview". When a new Window for the preview is opened, notice the URL contains "&sap-config-mode=true". Now right click on the fields you want to hide and choose "enter configuration" (or the like, wording is not exact) from the context menue. The WD-UI-Element tree opens where you can directly hide/customize properties of the WD. When clicking save+exist you can also transport the alterations you did.
maybe this helps or gives you a helpful alternative to the already stated measures in this thread

Customizing Benefits and Payments iview in ESS Portal

Hi Guys ;
I am working on ESS portal.
I want to add new links and textviews in the Benefits and Payments iview. After adding them I want to rearrange their positions with respect to existing fields on the iview.
I tried by opening the preview of iview from
Content Administration -> portal Content -> ESS->iviews ->Benefits and Payments iview.
Then I selected an existing link on the preview of iview and did ctrl + right click but when I select any uielement and click on rearrange I don't get any filed inthe table to rearrange its empty.
Is there any particular node in UI element tree to be selected to rearrange the fieldst?
Please reply I am in a fix.

1) How can employee know when their benefits should start (cant enter start date via ESS)
- It appears that they need to enter a start date but cannot
Typically, EEs are not allowed to enter a start date for benefits coverage. The start date usually depends on the type of enrollment.
If it is a new hire enrollment - the start date for benefits coverage will be the employee start date.
If it is open enrollment - the start date for benefits coverage will be the beginning of the following year (open enrollment is done usually towards the end of the current year - for benefits coverages of the following year)
If it is a generic enrollment (for example - birth of a new child) - the start date will be the beginning date of the corresponding adjustment reason (IT0378 record start date).
2) For insurance enrollment, why does BASIC COVERAGE show ZERO amount. Can we remove if we can?
This is a generic screen used for all the plans and hence it shows ZERO amount. You may choose to customize the code if you want to.
3) We need to relabel some of these plans we set up for HSA - how can we do that?
This can be done by changing the corresponding texts in the benefits configuration. The webdynpro application reads it from there.

vipin

Dear Vipin,
What I will suggest you is to first find out the component name,
then from the component find out the Model (RFC) which is used, I believe that HR forms or SAP Script is used to display the
PDF, and if this is the case then it should be changed by your ABAPer.
You can find the component name from the Iview Property "Application Namespace" (I hope you can find the iview),
Now go to Content Administration>>Web Dynpro >>Deployed Content. Here you can find your Model, Now you can go to R3. Type T-CODE se37, here type the name of your model,now you can see whether its a SMART FORM, HR FORM, SAP SCRIPT or ADOBE FORM(SPF). In case its none, then definately It would be a interactive form UI in your webdynpro Application.
Now when you have got the name of the Component, you can make your changes.
Hope it helps.
Warm Regards
Upendra Agrawal

Total Compensation Statement on ESS Portal

Hello,
I am trying to configure a custom form (ZHR_CMP_TCS) for Total Compnesation Statement on to the ESS Portal.
Can I change the standard settings on Table V_T77S0? Apart form this, what other steps should be followed to have the custom form linked to ESS.
PCOMP     SFTCS     ZHR_CMP_TCS     Form for total compensation statement
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Soujanya.

this should be enough as you have done in T77S0 through PCOMP SFTCS.
Form for Total Compensation Statement
    In this field you can specify which form (smart form) the system is to
    use to create the Total Compensation Statement.
if you need country specific you would require
The customizing of the Total Compensation Statement and Compensation
Review Statement may be found in the IMG, using the menu path
Personnel Management #¨Enterprise Compensation Management#¨ Compensation
Statements.
The node 'Country Specific Enhancements' contains all BAdIs to define
customer specific categories and subcategories if the standard is not
sufficient and you want to display additional data or other data in the
Total Compensation Statement. Here, you can implement the method
TCS_DATA_GET to make the categories and subcategories country specific.
For example, in certain countries, you may want to hide certain
subcategories, read additional data as well as standard data, or read
data other than the standard data

Conflict on ESS Portal

Hi
When employee apply or try to aprrove leaves on ESS portal conflict erro with other absence or attendace type is coming. this process working fine on R3 System but not on portal.
IT 0007 status os 0- No time evaluation.

Hi Vikrant,
The issue is because, the employee has applied for the leaves on portal and before it is approved, that particular date is updated via backend in IT2001.
To resolve this issue, you will have to delete the leaves that are still in the sent status in the portal buffer area.
You will have to use the reports RPTARQDBVIEW and RPTARQDBDEL using tcode SA38.
Run the first report by selecting upto today option and then check the leave request in sent status that are already updated in backend in IT2001 then using the second report, select upto date option and uncheck the test run field and delete those request that you identified from the first report. This will resolve ur issue.
Cheers,
Ayyaps
