Mass termination in HCM Processes and Forms

Hi everyone,
Is mass termination possible within the HCM Processes and Forms framework? Usually the framework is per employee. Has anyone got it working for mass employees or org units?
I'm leaning more on Web Dynpro development for the mass terminations.
Thanks!

Hi Chris,
Can you please give me more details on how to set up the Mass termination process in HCM. I try to built LSMW through PA40, but it did not work out. Can you give me more details on what are steps for the configuation. IF the process includes any ABAP requirement, please let me know, I have to talk to my ABAPer.
Thank you in advance

Retrieving attachments in hcm processes and forms

Hi Experts,
We have implemented HCM processes and forms and in one of the custom processes which we have created. We have an attachment option where the user attaches the document and the document is reviewed by the approver.
But how does the administrator later on retrieve the attachments for a specific personal number.
Is there any way to search for attachments based on Personal Number?.
If not - what is the ideal solution to retrieve the attachments .
Please help me in this regards,
Thanks in advance

    The exception 'CX_PARAMETER_INVALID_RANGE' was raised, but it was not caught

    the call hierarchy.
    Since exceptions represent error situations and this error was not
    adequately responded to, the running ABAP program
     'CL_ABAP_TSTMP=================CP' has to be
    terminated.
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_PARAMETER_INVALID_RANGE', was not
     caught in
    procedure "SUBTRACT_TIMESTAMPS" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
     clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    Parameter has invalid value: Parameter TSTMP1 has invalid value 0.

The following error text was processed in the system GOA : Component Usage OADP_USAGE Does Not Have an Active Component
The error occurred on the application server sapgoa_GOA_37 and in the work process 4 .

Hi,
In EhP4, the employee search is created using OADP framework . And if the relevant configuration is not maintained , I mean there is a view cluster where the applications (PA/PD) and relevant object types are maintained.
If this is not maintained, this creates a error. Please check .
Hope this helps.

Workflow issue in HCM Process and Forms

Hi,
I have created one workflow for HCM Process and form ( Termination) . In that workflow, there are Two levels. First and second level is approved by the respective managers. I am using the Standard TASK TS17900100 both levels having the Send, "BACK TO AUTHOR" option.
When I initiate the form it has generated the process reference number, it went to first level approval and the respective manger received work item in his UWL inbox in this stage I have checked in backend (PA20) infotypes( 0 & 1) are updating automatically and employee has been terminated without approval of work item.
I have checked in workflow log the work item has with first level manger only.
any one please help me on this.
Regards,
Srujan

Hi,
TS17900101 uses --> CL_HRASR00_WF_COMPONENTS / Method WI_EXECUTION_VIA_R3_INBOX.
In the text of the method you can read the following:
It is only allowed to trigger a WI via UWL which does not execute
that method which was customized at the corresponding task (so this
method). To ensure this if the WI was startet via R3 Inbox then
exactly this method is called to present an error.
So, are you approving from UWL or SBWP?

Hello Parthasarathi,
Please, try to implement the note 1075650.

Use HCM processes and Forms without using the Enterprise Portal

is it possible to leverage existing HR Admin Services (HCM processes and Forms) functionality without using the Enterprise Portal?
1) Create an Adobe form and Interface using SFP
2) Set up ISR and Form Scenario
3) Set up Forms configuration to use existing Backend and generic Services
4) Set up workflow to updated Backend using Services
is it possible to do the above steps and not use the Portal? If Yes, how do we present the forms to the Manager, and provide different buttons that appears on the Portal by default?
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Saurabh

Hi Saurabh,
your assumptions and findings (items can not be started from the backend workflow inbox etc.) are correct: These processes can not be started without the Portal and it is not intended to do this.
The above mentioned backend report are only forseen for implementation and testing purposes and not for productive use.
In addition to the fact, that you already can't execute the work items a lot of other features of the framework (Process Browser etc.) are only available through the Portal.

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.

PS: There are posts which talk about generic services , make yourself comfortable with the concept of generic services.

Workflow could not start in HCM process and Forms

Hi All
It would be really helpful if you can suggest possible solution regarding case management case in HCM forms and process.
I have set up a simple custom HCM process and Form regarding Infotype 2 updation. I have checked the process and form consistency and it seems fine. Now when I run the process from HRASR_DT it generates a process number but it also gives an error workflow could not start.I get following error (SWIA log - Step history)

Hi Swati
One of the similar (not exact) issues were resolved by correcting the event linkage....please refer thread:
http://scn.sap.com/message/14848795#14848795
Not sure of the details of the the resolution, maybe Ragavendran Kanagaraj can throw more light.
Just some high level checks (if not done already):
Check event linkage errors in SWEQADM if anything is related to your WF
Check in SWEL if it's showing any more details (not sure if it will)
Any warnings in syntax check of WF template (PFTC) or WF definition (SWDD)
Any error sin binding

Message Handling in HCM Process and Forms

Hi,
I have added own messages logic
MESSAGE_HANDLER Type Ref To IF_HRBAS_MESSAGE_HANDLER
message_handler->add_message( message = message ).
in "DO_OPERATION" method of Generic Service in HCM process and Forms.
Problem : We have handled messages in method "DO_OPERATION" but when we click on NEXT push button (review and send)at mss level, same error messages is displayed for 2 times above the adobe form.
Same error messages are displayed as many times as we click on NEXT push button.
Need Solution : It is supposed to display only once.
Thank You,

Hi Shweta,
Please check SY-UCOMM in both the cases.
1. After Selecting Position
2. After Clicking 'Next' Button.
If SY-UCOMM is different, Then Add message to Message_handler only when Position is selected.
That means If sy-ucomm = Position select User command
Then Add message to Message_handler.
endif.
'Else dont ADD'
Hope this helps.

Query on HCM Processes and Forms

Hi
I am facing some issues in configuring Hiring Forms in HCM Processes and Forms. I can place them in 2 baskets and describe each of them below. I would appreciate any advise on ways and means to overcome these errors.
Basket #1
I want to use the standard forms SHU1, SHU2 in development environment to understand the HCM P&F functionalities. I copied these form scenarios from client 000 and did all the configurations as outline in IMG activity HRAdministrative Services >> Configuration of Forms and Processes >> Sample Processes for HCM Process and Forms.
When I run a check using HR Administrative Services >> Configuration of Forms and Processes >> Configuration of Forms >> Check Consistency of Form Scenarios and select Form name, I get errors along following lines:
u2022     Error Message Sample#1 Form scen SHU1 vers. 00000 serv. SAP_PA: Only one deflt value allowed for field I0009_ZLSCH
u2022     Error Message Sample#2 Form scen. SHU1 vers. 00000 service SAP_PA: Field I0007_ARBST default value is not created
u2022     Error Message Sample#3 ISR scenario SHU1 version 00000: Field I0001_BUKRS is missing
u2022     Error Message Sample#4 Form scen. SHU1 vers. 00000: Field I0007_ARBST service for default values not required
However, at the bottom of the log I see this message in Green: Form scenario SHU1 version 00000: Form scenario is consistent
I tried to make the changes as suggested in the Long Text for each of these messages. Probably due to the fact that I am using standard delivered forms, I get this message u201CDo not make any changes (SAP entry)u201D and I am unable to save the changes.
Basket #2
In this basket I have Org_Change form and have managed to go the whole nine yards and complete the configuration in ECC. The consistency checks for process and forms are in green. However, I am unable to start the process through Portal. I get this message u201Cno data availableu201D when I try to select a process.
Among the 5 roles delivered in SAP as initiators for processors u2013I am interested in 3 of them HRASARA (for HR Administrator). I have configured HRASRA and HRASRB as initiators for Org_Change. However, I am not able to figure out how to link these roles to portal roles such as SAP_ASR_ADMINISTRATOR, SAP_ASR_MANAGER etc.
I would appreciate any advise on ways and means to overcome these errors.
Thanks

Have you been able to fix your issue in Basket # 2 ?

Use of Table in HCM Processes and Forms

Hi Guys,
I am developing an Adobe form for the HCM process and forms .My requirement is to populate table values in the adobe form based on a value got in the backend service.
I tried declaring an internal table in the backend service but in vain.So decided to code inside the context of the form.But was not able to use the parameters available in the
Now the trouble is how to get the value from the form scenario field and populate that table.
Please provide your thoughts.

Use of BADI in HCM Processes and Forms

Hello Friend's,
I am feeling trouble in learning HCM Processes and Forms.. Actually i dont know what is the role of BADI in HCM Processes and Forms. one more thing i need to know is OPERATION for backend service. What is the use of operation and how i can trigger the badi methods when running in portal.

Hi Ramesh,
Hope this is not too late to help.
Do_operation will be called whenever there is roundtrip, by triggering event USER_EVENT_CHECK using form scripting.
example,
To trigger roundtrip for a drop down list, under exit* event add this
xfa.record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_EVENT.value = "USER_EVENT_CHECK";
ContainerFoundation_JS.SendMessageToContainer(event.target, "submit", "", "", "", "");

Dynamic navigation, on HCM Process and Forms "Web Dynpro FORM"

Hi,
I'm trying to solve an issue regarding dynamic navigation, on a enhacement done at the Web Dynpro ABAP QISR_UI component for HCM Process and Forms.
I'm hiding the Adobe Form, and doing "do_dynamic_navigation" for a dynamic generated view container present at the VIEWSHOWFORM on the QISR_UI component.
The code works great, i.e.: the Adobe Form remains hidden and the custom form, using Web Dynpro appears.
I'm also using the HRASR00_PROCESS_EXECUTE_1 component to execute a Portal IView (Floorplan based component).
When the process is started, and the folowing actions are executed:
1- Select Employee
2- Select Process
3- Edit form
4- Press back (for example if the wrong process is selected)
5- Select the Process
6- Edit form again
There is a NULL exception, the "embedding_vca" (below) is NULL
SAPLWDR_RUNTIME_REPOSITORY
METHOD: IF_WD_RR_VIEW_USAGE~GET_EMB_VIEW_CNT_ASSIGNMENT (LCL_VIEW_USA
* method IF_WD_RR_VIEW_USAGE~GET_EMB_VIEW_CNT_ASSIGNMENT
method if_wd_rr_view_usage~get_emb_view_cnt_assignment.
result = me->view_usage->embedding_vca->get_api( ).
endmethod.
"IF_WD_RR_VIEW_USAGE~GET_VIEW_CONTAINER_ASSIGNMENT
Can you guys give me an hand?

Hello,
Basically what I did was replacing the Adobe Form, by a Web Dynpro component that contains its own form, and associated logic.
Tecnically the steps to acomplish the task were:
1º Development of a component for showing a form. ( I suggest you to start with just a "hello world" or something very basic )
2º Enhance the QISR_UI component (VIEWSHOWFORM view, on the modify view method), something like
if form scenario = XXXXX then
hide the adobe form;
create a custom view container (the problem I had above), and create an instance of the component created on step 1
end if
3º Access the context that the original form returns (you can check the context debugging the VIEWSHORFORM view )
4º Pass the context to the component created..
I can't provide further details on this, I'm sorry...
I do not suggest doing this, this was a requirement so I had to do it... But this requires a lot of workarrounds, and lots of small changes in standard code related with process and forms... It's not, also, a "clean" solution

Joã
