MSS PCR new scenario

Hi,
Can somebody help us?
For the PCR webdynpro sap.com/mss~pcr there are 2 applications:
PcrDirectLaunchApplication
PcrApplication
We are using now PcrApplication, but we want directly start are own scenario, so the manager doesn't have to make a choice. Is there a parameter or an other way to solve this?
Thank you. Best regards, Ton
Thanks for help,
Sven Keller

There is an alternative scenario as detailed in the Config document. You will go into the Homepage Framework customizing and change the object name of MSS_HCM_SERV_PCR_NEWPCR from PcrApplication to PcrApplicationSingleForm.
from config document:
"The desired PCR scenario of the application must also be assigned as the URL parameter. The URL parameter required to jump directly to "Change Employee Group and Subgroup" scenario is "pcrtype", for example, pcrtype = SPEG."

Custom MSS PCR scenario & fields

HI ,
I have successfully copied the Standard MSS pcr scenarios to Z scenario & forms , as per the guidelines in Development guide for PCR .All the form elements & PCR flow is working fine for Z scenario &
forms .
I need to add some new textfields/dropdown fields to the Z form & scenario.
Is there any sap document that provides deeper understanding of custom fields addition to Z forms /scenario or the only way out is to go through coding .
Thanks & regards,

How to find related User commands when Use MSS PCR scenarios

Hi
We are using MSS PCR Senarios with Web dynpro Business package.
How to know which command is fired when click on buttons PCR web dynpro screens like "Sumbit" "Resubmit" buttons.
is there any document which tells about the all the standard buttons and its corresponding user commands in R/3 to handle in BADI.
I have gone through the ISR cook book but not find much information
Thanks in Advance

Yes - it is a bit frightening... Had other Macs before this MacBook (Pro), and never experienced such a problem. Don't know - of course I look into the Preference settings from time to time, and maybe I have changed that setting on the other computers... it never occurred to me...
What an annoyance such a simple decision to make the auto-shutdown after one hour a default can be! Probably, Apple reconsiders :-D I'd rather prefer an auto-lock of the account (instead of an auto-log off)... but I believe it has been expressed often enough that, in this particular case, the - pardon me - Windows-solution (to offer a simple lock of the account, the Windows-L-key combination, IIRC) is much more practical... to copy that behaviour under Mac OS X, You'd have to go through lengths...
Anyway! Pondind, thank You very much!!! Solved a kind of embarassing, but huge problem of mine!
Best,

Adobe form MSS PCR senarios not working with Portal SSL

Hi All,
we have implemented MSS PCR senarios Nw04 with ERP2004 system.
every thing is working fine when use http protocal for portal acess.
Now we try to implement ssl for portal. so started implemnation and done in portal side, after that when try access any senario forms , The adobe form is not opening for editing, its throwing error
The initial exception that caused the request to fail, was:
 java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
 at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method)
 at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.doConnect(PlainSocketImpl.java:305)

 at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(PlainSocketImpl.java:158)
 at java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:461)
 ... 47 more
its very urgent anybody can help out this, what settings ot be done on R/3 server and Portal and ADS server
Thanks in advance
Gopal

Hello Gopal,
You would only need an https connecion between the browser and the portal server if you are only concerned with the MSS applications. You need to have SSL configured from the portal to ADS server had you implemented some custom scenarios like certification, digital signature etc. But, considering your MSS issue, you do not need to worry about it untill and otherwise your landscape demands you to do so for any security reason.
Well, you might have already gone through the following link, incase not, please go through the link to find out more on how to confugre SSL on the j2ee engine:

MessageBox on Adobe Form in SAP MSS PCR for SAP ECC 5.0

Hello,
I have a question regarding the behavior of Adobe form messagebox in SAP HR MSS PCR (Personal Change Request)
I tried to test how the messagebox looks like, and so I created a PCR scenario with an Adobe form. This form contains a datetime field. I added the script "xfd.host.messageBox("this is message", "this is title") to the "exit" event of the datetime field. Then I did all the necessary steps so that this PCR is displayed in the Portal.
Now at the runtime, when I select a date value from the datetime field, the messagebox is displayed, BUT within an empty Adobe Reader page. It is not displayed on the top of my adobe form.
But the strange thing is that when I use tab key to navigate through the datetime field, the messagebox is displayed on the top of my adobe form, without the empty Adobe Reader page.
I also tried my script with several different event types, including "Change", and "Validate", it behaves the same way. But when I tried it with the event type "MouseExit", no empty Adobe reader page is shown up at all (of course, this is not the right event type for me)
The environment is SAP ECC 5.0, SAP MSS business package for ECC 5.0, SAP Portal 7.0 (NW 2004s), Adobe LiveCycle 7.1, and Adobe Reader 8.1.1
Has anyone experienced this? I'd really appreciate any comments and suggestions. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Harrison

Antony,
The Adobe Reader version is 8.1.1
Just wondering if you used messageBox in interactive forms with ISR framework, and it worked well for you?
Thanks.

I am using SPPM mss/pcr scenario.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Renato.

Hi Renato,
When you are using PCRs/ISRs the form data is read from the XML data attached to the R/3 Notification object.
ISRFormApprove in particular expects that this XML dat already exists and is correctly attached to the R/3 Notification object.
So:
1) Check your UWL is connecting ok to your SAP system - which I presume it is otherwise you wouldn't be getting the work item.
2) Check the system alias from the system landscape used for your UWL system connection - make sure that its the right one and has the webdynpro host/port/path details defined. Use the Connection Test options in the Portal Content Directory to check it.
3) Check you have passed in a valid R/3 notification number - i.e. you should be able to display the notification in transaction IQS3 in the backend SAP system.
4) Check the XML data is correctly linked to the form. The easiest way is probably to use transaction SE37 test option against function module ISR_SPECIAL_DATA_GET.
It should return a list of all your PCR characterstics and their values.
If all that's working and its still not happening for you, check you have the latest fixes as per SAP notes, and then raise an SAP message.
Regards,
Jocelyn

MSS PCR confirmation -- customization

Hi Experts,
I am facing problem in customizing PCR (request for seperation(enhanced)).
Environment:
EP 7.0 SP 12
ECC 6.0 SP 11
MSS 1.0 SP 09
NWDS 7.0.12
Requirement:
Customize three PCRs in the SAP suggested standard way.
first PCR is request for seperation(enhanced).
In this PCR there are 5 steps
Select Employee
Select Form
Edit Form
Review Form
Send(Save)
After which you get a confirmation page saying:
Your request has been sucessfully ....bla ...bla and your notification number is bla...bla
Now the customization required is that there has to be no workflow, so I (as a portal developer) have to add a push button(update database) on the cofirmation page which would call a RFC with the notification number and that RFC will update the database.
I have configured NWDI and imported all the required components on the development track and there are no dirty DCs, I am able to see all the DCs.
When I have a look at the code in the DC ....mss/pcr it shows me only the initial two screens while the rest of the screens seem to be dynamically generated by the FPM(it is entering FPM event loop).[CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG]
I am deploying the Self Service Administrator handy for the future.
I am stuck at this point for a week not able proceed.
Please suggest/correct me as to how to proceed further.
Just a reminder that I only have to worry about putting the push button.
Thanx all

You can set up ISR to make sure there is no workflow. However, the end result will be that it still goes to the proper admin to actually make the change (via Action Box config). I think what you seek is an "auto update" which is NOT supported in PCRs. However, in ECC6, you might want to look at the new Process and Forms which are part of HRAS (HR Admin services) that is replacing PCRs. I think it now supports automatic updates. Hope this helps.

How to add table data to an MSS PCR form?

Hi All,
I am new to Adobe Interactive Forms and I need to add a table of information to an existing form. This form is a customized version of an MSS PCR form Request for Termination. Currently the form fields are populated by an implementation of BADI QISR1. It is a copy of implementation HRWPC_PCR and uses the internal table special_data. All the fields currently on the form are single fields and I can see how they are populated. However I now want to add the contents of an internal table. I have read through the ISR cookbook but I cannot work out how to get this data onto the form and how or if it should be stored in the special_data table. The table (LOAN) has been added to the context and has 4 fields. Would anybody be able to provide some direction to me? Please let me know if I have not provided enough information.
Thanks very much!
Ashley

Hello Ashley,
you are already close to the solution. In BADI QISR1 you simply fill the
table SPECIAL_DATA e.g.like
fieldindex = 1
fieldname = 'FIELD1'
fieldvalue = 'Value1'
fieldindex = <n>
fieldname = 'FIELD1'
fieldvalue = 'VALUE<n>'
Then on the Adobe form layout (Adobe Designer), you have to use the table control XFO from the standard library. Here you have to bind then the corresponding column to FIELD1.
Best regards,
Simon

MSS PCR followup function

One of the standard PCR form scenarios (SPPD - Internal Transfer - Enhanced) does not have a "Change Form" follow-up function. Does anyone know why it does not have the function, as other similar scenarios do have this follow-up function? We are on ERP 2004, and even checking a resource that has ERP 2005 has indicated that this followup function does not exist for that scenario. For the customer specific scenario, we added the followup function using the same function module as was provided for the same followup function in other scenarios, however, when changing the effective date on the form, an error is delivered stating "No positions were found".
Can anyone shed some light on this? Anyone else find this little interesting?
thanks in advance.

Hi Suresh
All required ESS/MSS transports have been imported from 000.
We also compared to other ECC 6.0 system and the same standard scenarios/follow up functions exists in both systems. This leads me to believes that all the required tables/objects are imported .
The form opens, and a number of the other fields can be changed successfully, EXCEPT the effective date field. Other similar scenarios using this follow-up function allows successful change of the effective date field. Those scenarios are using the same function module to open the form. It does not appear to be the function module for the form, but may some other logic that takes over upon form validation. The initiator of the PCR is able to choose any date they wish for the effective date. During the approval process, 1st and 2nd level approvers have no ability to change the effective date. Their purpose is to either Approve, Reject or Send back to Author. The back end processor must sometime change the effective date based on business need. This is where the problem exists.
thanks,

MSS PCR(Personnel Change Request) Report

Hi Experts,
We have configured MSS successfully, Now the reqirement is that we require a report which keeps the track of all requests generated during MSS PCR, like which request, who requested, approver, status of the request....etc.....
Is there any way out where I can track all these things.
Please suggest.
Thanks
Rohit G

@Rohit Gaharwar
Sorry, Rohit...yes, I understood you are on PCRs and not HCM P&F, but I wanted to mention that functionatlity is in fact there for HCM P&F since it was a big missing part for PCRs. And if you are actually on ECC6, you might want to look into it versus PCRs since PCRs are going the way of the dinosaur.
@Suresh
Is their some reporting off of workflow that could be done as well? I would think that could show who processes a request as well as where they are "held up". Reporting is a big missing part of PCRS, agreed.
