Lock Actions in PA40

HI Folks,
We have a new requirement in our role redesign project that Iam working on, where in a particular users in a business group should not be able to do certain actions in the pA40 screen. Restricting at the infotype level is not the answer because for allowing them to do a certain action which need ITs X, Y and Z is also letting them perform any actions that would involve ITs X, Y and Z. The Business is able to complete some other actions as well, which we donot want them to perform. Is there any way of restricting/ providing additional security to a selected actions in the PA40 screen. Smillar thoughts on the PA30 menu tabs as well is appreciated.
Any and all thoughts on this concern is highly appreciated!

Hi Madhavi,
The problem is with the P_ORGIN, if you have the Auth Level W for the infotypee 0000(actions)
then he will be able to perform the action tryby removing that n let me know, it should work.
Also if you want him to perform some actions then for IT 0000 adjust the subtype accordingly.
Say for Hiring action you need a combination of 0000 with Subtype 01 with Auth level write.
Hope this helps

CHARM: Lock actions if the same role is used

Hi,
is it possible to lock the actions, when a user is (e.g.) change manager and developer at the same time?
in some our department it is possible that to different users got the role change manager and developer, but we dont want let one person commit changes and develop at the same time.
kind regards
dirk

Hi Dirk,
you could create a scheduling condition for the action that makes the action not show up in the action dropdown if the change manager and developer are the same BP.

Jason

Dynamic Actions - only PA40 ?

Can we use dynamic actions in PA30... or is it juust dedicated to PA40/Actions ?
Thanks in advance

If you want the spro path

Skip by default 0000 (Actions) from PA40 and shows any other like 0185.

Hi Gurus.
As you know, in PA40, its run infotype 0000 bydefult before executing any other defined infotype. I would like to skip 0000 and want to run first 0185 then 0000 and after that any other infotype. This is because when by default pa40 call 0000 (action) its first create employee then execute other infotypes in a sequence. To display 0185 bydefault is to check first employee id either its exist in sap or not then proceed other infotypes.
Thanx and waiting for response.

Thanks, Jim!
So, here’s how I understand the steps I need to take:
Create 6 slides, one for each question. Create captions and other elements to frame the question. Create a Text Entry Box, one on each of the question slides, where the user will record their answer to each question.
Create a caption on the first question slide where the total score will be compiled. Display this object for the rest of the project. Type $$v_total$$ in the text of the caption.
Create one variable for each question.
Create an advanced action that adds all of the associated variables into the v_total variable.
Apply the advanced action to the appropriate quiz slides.
I was able to duplicate what you sent me, so I know that it works.
One follow-up question: If users want to retake the quiz, I need another action that will reset the v_total variable to zero, right? Where do I apply this advanced action?

Changes needed in OM while performing Actions in PA40

Hi,
I am new to SAP...I need to run an "Organizational change" action type. The action reason is "title change" . Can anyone let me know what are the changes need to be done in PA and OM to run this action?
Best Regards,
Satish

Hi Satish
Organization Reassignment Action is generally used when the employee gets transferred, gets promoted etc. This action allows changing IT0001 for the employee where you would be able to change his position, job, personnel subarea, payroll area etc. Along with IT0001 you are also allowed to change IT0007, IT0008 etc.
When you execute this action in PA, the changes get reflected in OM as well provided your PA+OM integration switch (PLOGI + ORGA) is ON in table T77S0.You will not need to make any change in OM separately after executing this action if this intergration switch is on.

Text not getting displayed in PA40 action.

Hello All,
We upgraded from 4.6 to 5.0. When I doing the hiring or any other action, the text for the action type, reason for action or any other field is not getting displayed. Even when I select the entries the text for that is not getting displayed.
like its displaying only 01- for Action type hiring.
Thank You all in advance for your reponse!
Chakri.

Hello Sharath,
I checked this and this table is having all the values properly maintained. Language, Action, Name of the action is maintained. Is there any place where we need to activate this in order for us to see the name of the action type also when we select an action in PA40.
Thanks a lot for your response.

How to retrieve the action type of a PA40 action?

Hi there,
I am trying to find out the way to identify what was the action type for the personnel action that is just being executed. I will try to explain myself with a concrete example.
Let's take the hiring action.
A user goes to PA40 and initiates the action to hire a new employee. The program will then start guiding the user through the different infotypes defined within the infogroup.
Let's say that the order is IT0001, IT0002, IT0006, ...
I have setup table T779X to call a Function Module of my own after inserting IT0006. At that point in time I can know that the IT has been modified through transaction PA40 (sy-tcode) but, how can I know what action is being executed?
Thanks

Jim,
Actions can always be found afterwards in IT000 indeed
My problem is that I need to know what action type was initiated in REAL TIME. When I am debugging the batch for IT0006, after the user initiated an action through PA40
Thanks for the answer anyway

Personal Actions (PA40)

There is always a strong possibility to create new future Personal Actions with PA40 transaction. The system may allow you to do this but unfortunately, when this actions are done and one personal action is intersperse between the future one and the last one created, the last Personal Action created in time (the future one) is inconsistent.
Is there any way to avoid this to happen ?
Thanks very much for your help in advance.

I dont see any reason there for this to be inconsistent- Please note that, Only those actions that change the Employment Status of the Employee need to be stored in the Actions Infotype- for all other actions, please use the Additional Actions Infotype.
Now, Actions IT has a time constraint of 1- which means, there can be only one record at all times- so, when you execute a future dated action, it would accept it and when you execute another action before the date of the future dated action, the future dated action gets superceded with the new action- which makes perfect sense.
Or, if you have any specific scenario that you are facing, please share that here.
Regards,
Krish

Default Reason code in IT0008 during PA40 Actions

Hi,
My requiremnt is default the reason code in infotype 008 during actions in PA40. Itshould be same as the one the user selected during the initial Action screen.
For Eg: Suppose user is selected the '01' as reson code in the initial action screen during the Hiring action, then when IT0008 appears, reason code should be defaulted as '01'.
Pls share any idea to do it.

Hi,
I have got the user exit for poulating the data. But the problem is how to get values from the screen for Infotype 0000 to screen for infotype 0008. Since the user may not save the data in 0000.So we can't read it from database.

Info group being not called while using Dynamic Actions

Hi,
I am facing a scenario that, while we execute some action from PA40 like termination, then it will call my subroutine for dynamic actions which will be calculating the last day worked and updating the same in Info Type 0041.
For updating the IT 0041, i am using the function module HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA. and IT0041 is getting updated properly. But now the problem is coming that when the control comes out of subroutine, it is going back to the PA40 Screen and not to the next screen of the Info group.
What can be the cause for the same.
RND I have done on my part: I have commented/uncommented the return parametre RP50D-Date1, commented/uncomented the use of function modules to lock and Unlock the pernr.
Please give ur comments.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Nisha,
Not sure if I have understood correctly, but if you just wanted to calculate leaving date and write the same date in IT0041 then you don't need a function module:
1. Create a small program, as follows:
REPORT ZHR_PY_R0008                           .
INCLUDE MPPDAT00.
TYPE-POOLS HRQTA.
TABLES: P0000,
        RP50D,
        T001P.
ROUTINE CALLED BY TABLE T588Z
FORM CHANGE_DATE.
RP50D-DATE1 = P0000-BEGDA - 1 .
ENDFORM.                    " CHANGE_DATE
This program will give you the last working day written to RP50D-DATE1
2. Simply enter the following lines into table T588Z:
0000 04 499*- LEAVING ACTION - Populate Infotypes with leave date -*
0000 04 500 P T001P-MOLGA='08'
0000 04 501 P PSPAR-TCLAS='A'
0000 04 502 P PSPAR-MASSN='*'/X   (* equals your leaving action types)
0000 04 503 P PSPAR-MASSN='*'/X   (* equals your leaving action types)
0000 04 504 F CHANGE_DATE(ZHR_PY_R0008)
0000 04 505 ******** INF.0041 ********
0000 04 506 I COP,0041,,,(P0000-BEGDA),(P0000-ENDDA)/D
0000 04 507 W P0041-DAR07='*'   (* equals your date type)
0000 04 508 W P0041-DAT07=RP50D-DATE1
or if you are simply looking to delimit IT0041 with the leave date then replace lines 506-508 with:
0000 04 506 I MOD,0041,,,(RP50D-DATE1),(RP50D-DATE1)/D
0000 04 507W     P0041-ENDDA=RP50D-DATE1
This will solve your problem : - )

Detailed info on Leaving /Separation Action

Hi Folks,
I would like to know how Leaving/separation action works in PA, and what happens after that in-terms of Full & Final Calculation.
if the scenario is as explained below;
An employee's last date in company is 15.03.2008 and this 15 days he has worked has to be calculated as his/her full and final settlement.
Action:
Run Leaving/separation Action in PA40 effective 15.03.2008, Delimit all his records (Pls specify what all Infotypes has to be dellimited and what all infotypes should not be delimited)
I would like to know what happens after this...?
How would his payroll be run for full and final settlement calculation...?
points will be rewarded.
regards,
Santhosh

Hi TS,
Appreciate your answer, it is more detailed.
One more Info FYI - IT0007 should also not be delimited, other wise payroll while running throws error.
regards,
Santhosh

Locking Selected Fields on Submit

Hello,
I've been working on a multiple-item quote request form. My intention is that Party A (Requestor) will fill in the item description and details necessary for Party B (Vendor) to provide a quote. The form will be emailed to the Vendor who will complete the remaining fields (price and delivery) and email the form back to the Requestor.
The item description and details (provided by Requestor) and the item price and delivery (provided by Vendor) are both wrapped in thier own subform and both are contained in a repeating subform. I've scripted the buttons that add/delete instances of the subform for each separate item being quoted and the button that emails the form to the Vendor. It took me a long time, but I finally got the buttons to work!
Now I'd like to find a way to 'lock' the fields filled by the Requestor when the form is emailed but still leave the fields open that need to be completed by Vendor. I'd also like to lock the contact information fields at the top at the same time. I've attached a JPEG with the form layout to clarify...
I've been reading a lot of old posts regarding similar topics and tried some of the solutions provided but cannot seem to make them work for my application. The closest I've been able to come is locking the entire form. I have the form set to email on event=click of the "Submit to Vendor via Email" button and the locking action on the event=mouseup of the same button.
Does anyone know how I should approach this? I'm begining to think I designed my form and myself into a corner! Unfortunately I do not have a server on which to host the form but would be happy to email it to anyone willing to help.
Thanks,
Jake

I dont know what I was thinking. After some rest, and a second look, I can see this what the code is doing.
I am trying to provide a button that will lock elements on individual pages that are part of multiple instances. Note, each instance will contain said button.
Example: TRANSMITTAL[3].lockButton should only lock items on that instance of TRANSMITTAL[3].
The two attempts had different results
form1.TRANSMITTAL.lockButton::click - (JavaScript, client)
var j = _TRANSMITTAL.count;
for (var i=0; i<j; i++){
var currentSubform = xfa.resolveNode("TRANSMITTAL[" + i + "]");
varLOCK.LockAllFields(currentSubform, "Lock");
..resulted in Locking ALL instances.
form1.TRANSMITTAL.lockButton::click - (JavaScript, client)
varLOCK.LockAllFields(form1.TRANSMITTAL);
..resulted in nothing.
Any suggestions?
