MSS: Employee Search: Data View

Hi All,
I need a few clarifications regarding the Data View of Employee Search/Team Viewer iview.
1)"Click"ability of Employee in Data View
2)"Click"ability of any other object type, like Org Unit or Position in the Data View
After my trials, I'd like to know the following.
If I use the delivered object selection rules (in SPRO config), I'm able to click on the employee (i.e there's a link under the employee name in the Data View). If I use any other rule (a custom object selection rule with evaluation path O-S-P) I dont get the "link" under the employee name in the data view. Any reasons for this behaviour? or any rules regarding an object selection rule?
If I display Positions or Org Units in the Data View, they are not clickable either. Is this not allowed? Is Data View only to display employees?
If there's any other forum I'm more likey to get an answer, please lead me there.
Cheers,
Rajit

Hi Rajit
In most of the HR Implementation projects,in front end some of the fields are only displayed to the end user,The Examples of the fields are Position,Org unit,personal area,personal subarea,company code,Functional org unit,job number,some times cost center is also display only to end user.Even I am also in the project of HR Implementation as webdynpro as a front end we generally will not give a chance to enter the above fields by the end user.

Customizing standard MSS Employee Search (Web Dynpro Java)

Hi Guys,
Currently I am working on EP 7.0, and we have some requirements on MSS Employee Search.
Based on SAP help:
Technical Names of iViews :     com.sap.pct.erp.mss.employeesearch_geinfo
Technical Names of Web Dynpro Applications :     sap.com/mss~eepro/GeneralInformation
So downloaded package msseeprosap.com through NWDI, and opened in NWDS.
There are 3 applications there:
com.sap.xss.hr.eeprofile.GeneralInformation
com.sap.xss.hr.eeprofile.CompensationInformation
com.sap.xss.hr.eeprofile.PersonnelDevelopment
and 2 Components:
CEmployeeProfile_1Comp
CEmployeeProfileAllComp
but there is no views inside these 2 components which contains the screen layout.(E.g: Dropdown list for Employee Selection, Input fields for Last name, Personal Number, Personal area, etc)
How can I identify which package contains the screen layout for employee search?
Thanks a lot.

currently our project has a requirement to modify Employee Search iview: When user select one Org Unit, We need to have a button under the table which contains the users.
We imported package msstmvsap.com and found that it is using OADP screen.
Thus we imported pcui_gpoadpsap.com, we feel View "DataViewView" is the view that contains the user table, so I simply added one textview there, then deploy to server.
Then I run Employee Search, it is giving error
   java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sap.xss.ser.oadp.java.OADPObject incompatible with com.sap.xss.ser.oadp.java.OADPObject
    at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.VTeamViewerComp.onBeforeOutput(VTeamViewerComp.java:303)
    at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.wdp.InternalVTeamViewerComp.onBeforeOutput(InternalVTeamViewerComp.java:210)
    at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.VTeamViewerCompInterface.onBeforeOutput(VTeamViewerCompInterface.java:144)
    at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.wdp.InternalVTeamViewerCompInterface.onBeforeOutput(InternalVTeamViewerCompInterface.java:136)
    at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.wdp.InternalVTeamViewerCompInterface$External.onBeforeOutput(InternalVTeamViewerCompInterface.java:212)
Then i removed that textview, deploy again, still it has this problem.
Any help?
Thanks with rewarding points!

MSS Employee search and General Data

Hi All,
We are implementing ESS/MSS. When i preview "Employee Search" iview in (Content Provided by SAP>Line Manager> Employee Search) iview. It shows all employees under that line manger with all options. But when i click on any employee, it is not showing any information. I tried to test "General Data" iview, it simply shows "Please select any employee, to display data" text only.
Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Krish.

Please check your OADP customizing.
If your system is at ERP 2004 release refers to ~
Different Features of OADP based on ERP 2004 https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/DifferentFeaturesofOADPbasedonERP+2004

MSS Employee search; Remember last "Group of organization view"

I have a business requirement that the "employee search" has to remember the users last selected view in "employee selection".
Day 1: The user default gets "direct employees" (due to customizing) and changes the selection to "all employees".
Day 2: The user default gets "alle employees"
Can that be done?

Thanks for the information.
The cache lifetime (teamviewer.sap.xss.tmv.cachemaxage) is set to 1 by the system as standard.
No matter if I put 0 or 1 or 9 or 99 or 100 the result is the same ......
When I return to the page, the Employee search shows "Direct reports".
So.... it doesnt work for me
Can anyone help?

Hi,
   I have developed some ABAP WebDynpro applications and now I want to integrate them with the MSS team viewer (Employee search) iView i.e. when an employee link in the team viewer is clicked, the pernr of the selected employee should pass to my iView.
   Can someone suggest me how to achieve this.
   Thanks in advance. Will reward points for gunuine answer.

Hi John,
I am also doing the same thing.but the control is not going to the event handeler method.and it is not subscribing to the event also i guess.
below is the code i have written in the View of my component WDOINIT.
    l_api_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
    l_portal_manager = l_api_component->get_portal_manager( ).
    DATA l_wd_view TYPE REF TO if_wd_view_controller.
    l_wd_view ?= wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
    CALL METHOD l_portal_manager->subscribe_event
      EXPORTING
        portal_event_namespace = 'urn:com.sap.mss.employeesearch'
        portal_event_name      = 'SELECTION_CHANGED'"'selection_changed'
        view                   = l_wd_view
        action                 = 'SUBSCRIBE_TO_EVENT'.
and the event handeler code is :-
method ONACTIONSUBSCRIBE_TO_EVENT .
DATA: evt_name TYPE string.
DATA lo_nd_gc_event_data TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
DATA lo_el_gc_event_data TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
*DATA ls_gc_event_data TYPE wd_this->element_gc_event_data.
DATA lv_event_string TYPE string.
evt_name = wdevent->get_string( name = 'PORTAL_EVENT_NAME' ).
IF evt_name = 'selection_changed'.
lv_event_string = wdevent->get_string( name = 'PORTAL_EVENT_PARAMETER' ).
get single attribute
*lo_el_gc_event_data->set_attribute(
*EXPORTING
*name = `EVENT_STRING`
*value = 'handled' ).
ENDIF.
endmethod.
I don't know why it is not triggering the handeller method.
Can you please help me by the steps how you did this.
Thanks

MSS Employee Search

Hi all,
I'm implementing a custom service for managers and I need to execute a employee search. I'm using FPM and I wanna know if there are a standard way to implement it. If so, which is and how can I do it?
Regards,
Gregory.

Hi Gregory,
Please have a look at the standard iview for Team Viewer.
Portal Content - Content provided by SAP - line_manager - Manager Self-Service - iViews - HCM - Employee Search (Generic iview)
pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/line_manager/com.sap.pct.erp.mss.bp_folder/com.sap.pct.erp.mss.iviews/com.sap.pct.erp.mss.hcm/com.sap.pct.erp.mss.genericiview_teamviewer
Under Employee Selection - you can see different options - Direct Reports, Employees for Org Structure, Employees for Org Units, and Employee Search.
This iview is configurable using the Backend configuration and changing a couple of iview properties.
You can also customize the search criteria according to your needs.
Here is the link with some info:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/b8/0808e1c6b44d90b906a4cf97ccc925/frameset.htm
You can integrate a copy of this iview (customized) into a page and then add your custom iview at the bottom and subscribe to the team viewer events as explained in the wiki link I mentioned earlier.
If you try to integrate the application directly using FPM integration - it will be hard to customize it to your needs.
Thanks,
Shanti

MSS Employee Search results

Hi All,
        Just wondering if any one knew if the standard delivered MSS > Team > General Information > Employee Search (a.k.a OADP) shows separated/withdrawn/terminated employees as part of search results. I just separated a couple of employees in our development environment with PA40 only to find out that they are still showing up under direct repots.
        If this is indeed a standard behavior is there any way to filter the search results to display only active employees without having to customize OADP configuration?
Thanks,
Winston

you can do so in ESS STAT2 settings in table T77S0
ie
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Personnel Management > Employee
Self-Service > Service-Specific Settings > Address Book > Who's Who >
Who's Who (ESS): Refine Employee Search
If you wanted to restrict the search to all active employees, you would
need the next entry on table T77S0: ESS STAT2 3
You can get further information about Organization Chart iview on the
next link:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/43/69acffed1b30f3e1000000
0a11466f/frameset.htm
. The Function
module      HRXSS_ORG_GET_ORGCHAR intern calls Function module
     EVAL_INITIA which filters and select the per.nos and send to the
front end; and same list is being displayed ; and also the search query
/SAPQUERY/HR_XX_PA_ESS also plays an important role.

MSS Employee Search WebDynpro Component

Hi,
Has anyone tried to change the WebDynpro component for Employee Search.

Cheers

MSS employee search refresh frequency

Hi all,
In MSS on the iview employee_search that contains a table with the manager employees. There is a small link 'Refresh' on bottom right, that refreshes the table.
How can I change the frequency of this refreshing time? Is it possible to refresh everytime the page is loaded?
Thanks a lot for your cooperation.
Cheers,
André

refer the customisation in the note 954931
ie
The validity of the cached data can be define via iView property 'Cache
Lifetime'. The default value is '1' that means that the data is valid
for one day (to improve the iView performance).
If you want to have a different behaviour, you could change this caching
parameter (e.g. set it to -1 to disable the caching at all).

How to pass Employee number of MSS - Employee Search to Start Process

Hi All,
Just like HR admin role, Employee Information number is getting passed in Display Processes, Start Processes, and Personnel File, we have to make same scenario working for MSS also.
In MSS, General Information Page, when manager selects the Employee, then that Employee Number should get passed in Display Personnel File and also in Start Process.
I am new to HR module so I have not explined the requirement properlly, but Experts may be knowing this. Please help.
Regards,
Nikesh

Hi Siddharth Rajora,
I have actually 2 doubts..
1. You mean to say this can be done and is already implemented, but I think it will only work if we put "Display Personnel File and Start Process" under "Related Activities" area right ?
2. But user wants these views in the Detailed Navigation, so if he selects PERNER from general Information Page, and then if he clicks on "Start Process (under Detailed Navigation)" , then it shud show list of processes for that Employee.
Can you please guide me properly.

Employee Search in Dynamic Navigation does not update other iViews (FPM)

Hi all,
after selecting a person from Employee Search (MSS) we have to display corresponding data in a customer specific iView with help of selected person number.
So I created a Floorplan Manager Application as described in https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/profile/how-toaddacustomWebDynproiViewtotheMSSEmployeeProfile%28ECC+6.0%29&
If I use the SAP content page or create my own pages with corresponding Employee Search and customer specific iView, updating of data on the customer specific iView works. But if I add the Employee Search to Dynamic Navigation, the data is not updated in the customer specific iView.
I didn´t find a solution in this forum. Does anybody know, if it is possible to add the Employee Search as Dynamic Navigation (with help of Floorplan Manager functionality) and update data in other iViews and how this works? Or is it possible to handle this in a different way, e.g. PortalEventing?
Thanks,
Thomas

Hi,
I also tried to use only iViews of 'General Information' and added the employee search (team viewer) of the sap
content page 'General Information' to the dynamic navigation, but the other SAP standard iViews of 'General Information' page are not updated, too.
Does anybody know, if it is possible to add the employee search to dynamic navigation and to update the other iViews of 'General Information'? If yes, what properties have to be set? Are some settings for Floorplan Manager
needed?
Could anybody please give me a hint?
Thanks,
Thomas

MSS - Object and data provider

Hi,
had questions regarding the view groups in the OADP. first, the employee selection for Personnel change request is based on view group MSS_PCR_SELECT. This view group has views which in turn have root , navigation and target selections. due to which the manager logging in can see/navigate through the employees based on their org units etc.
Now for approving time ( direct link "approve timesheet data") , we used the standard view group MSS_LCA_EE. The views assigned here do not have a naviagtion object , due to which the manager is able to see all the employees listed at once, we created a custom view group based on the std one , added a navation object so that the manager can click on the org units (just like for selecting employees for PCR) and based on that the employees are displayed and then their time can be approved. Somehow this does not seem to work. It displays the whole list of employees. IT seems its just not taking that navigation object. Anyone tried achieving the same functionality ??
We are on ERP 2005 , MSS BP 1.0.

Hi Mark -
I am trying to do something similar and not having much luck.. I am trying to change the main Team Viewer on the employee General Information change. My client has a requirement where they do not want to use the manager (012) as the MSS user. The have lower level supervisors identified that link S to S (using 002). I created new eval paths for the root and navigation/target objects. I test them via transaction PPST and they return expected results. I created new rules and associated the eval paths, created new view, org view, etc. Then I went to the Employee Search (Team Viewer) iVew and changed the parameter to switch out my new org grp view. It does not work. In MSS, I get the message "no employees found."
The parameters (OADP) objects I switched out were:
View Grp = MSS_TMV_EE
View = MSS_TMV_EE_ORG1
I am also on ERP 2005 , MSS BP 1.0
If you got your issue fixed and can share anything that will help my issue I would greatly appreciate it.
Regards,
Karen
