MSS Reports vs. MSS Reporting

Hi guys,
In the MSS business package, there are 2 pages - Reports and Reporting. Reports has launchpad iView that can be configured to Manager's Desktop. Reporting also works similarly. So what is the difference between the 2 in relation to the Manager's Desktop?

  • BW reports for MSS via Portal

    Hello,
    I'm trying to start BW report from MSS without any luck.
    I created a function code for the report with function type BWR3 in R/3 IMG for Manager's desktop.
    I Enterd the function code in table T77MWBBWS (the table is not in the IMG !) with :
    object type = 'O', Reference char. = 0ORGUNIT ,
    BW rep.temp. ID = ZHR_ZHOP (the tecnical name of the BW report).
    When trying to start the report from Portal-MSS i get error message
    " java.lang.NullPointerException "
    I don't know if I created the function code correctly (On documentation
    only example for SAP Quary Report exist).
    Thanks in advance,
    Pazit Atar.

    Hi Atar,
    I am having same issue. I want to integrate custom BI Query in MSS but its giving null pointer exception even after maintaining entries in T77*BW table.
    I am hoping that you could have solved issue by now. If yes, please share end to end configuration steps.
    Appriciate your help as we are near to Go-Live and became show-stopper.

  • MSS - Adding a Standard report to the reporting section

    Hi All,
    I want to add Birthday list report to the reporting section in MSS.
    Right now I have  ee due to retire report, I want to deactivate this report and add standard Report " Birthday List".
    Please guide.
    Checked PPMDT, there is no brthday list report. How to add this to the set of reports.?
    Regards,
    Swati Sahu

    the birthday  list query had inconsistencies , resolved the inconsistencies and then could see the report in the MSS. For removing a report goto
    Personnel management > HRIS > HIS > Define task Functions.
    Remove the report entry which is not required. At the same place new reports can be added.

  • Custom reports in MSS

    Dear SDN Community,
      Can you please tell me how do I get the custom R/3 reports into MSS iviews. Do I need to customize anything in R/3 if I want to pull an existing R/3 report into portal. What are the MSS iViews that I should work here. I have no BW or any other custom reports but just R/3 custom reports.
    Thanks!

  • Creating Reports in MSS

    When looking at SAP Help it talks about specifying which reports can be selected by the manager in the Reporting iView. In Customizing for Manager’s Desktop (MDT), you therefore create an MDT scenario that defines a list of reports to be offered for selection.
    However, we have no reports that have been configured in MDT?  Do we need to create some reports for use in MDT so we can use reporting in MSS?
    Or is there another way of configuring reports in MSS?
    Thanks
    MN

    Dear King,
    Please execute this steps before the executing the steps i have mentioned above, this will activate the reports used for MSS. Then gofor moving the unwanted reports unactive folder. Just what you have to do it select the unwanted report and move it down to the inactive folder.
    1.     In the SAP HCM System choose:
    SAP Easy Access Menu      
    Transaction     SE38
    2.     In the ABAP Editor: Initial Screen enter the Program FPB_LP_WRITE_ENTRIES and choose Execute.
    3.     In the Report FPB_LP_WRITE_ENTRIES screen select the MSS Reporting and MSS with Folders options and deselect the checkbox Test Run.
    4.     Choose Execute. The sample entries are entered in the Report Launchpad in the portal.
    5.     Log on to the portal with User manager1 and check if the sample entries are displayed.
    6.     In the ECC system leave the transaction and go back to the SAP Easy Access Menu.
    7.     Enter transaction PWPC_CONV_MDT_TO_LPA in the Command field.
    8.     In the Report to convert MDT table entries to LPA table entries screen, enter the MDT Scenario RPT0 and deselect the Test run checkbox.
    9.     Choose Execute. The list in the next screen shows the reports which have been added to the Report Launchpad. 
    Do not forget to select MSS with Folders for the FPB_LP_WRITE_ENTRIES report. Otherwise you may get short dumps while editing the report launchpad, because the reports coming from the Manageru2019s Desktop do not have folders.

  • MSS - selection list in Reporting Tool

    Hi experts,
    I've designed two orgview groups and two report categories for Reporting Tool of MSS. I would like to display each orgview respectively depending on the category of the report I select.
    I know the portal calls the FM HRWPC_RFC_OADP_GET_ORGVIEWGRP to create orgview, but have no idea how should I enhance or modify the FM. Any idea? Thanks.

  • Reports in MSS

    By using the standard delivered report workset in MSS, any R/3 report can be called in MSS.  However it launches the ITS server, request log-in to the SAP R/3 system and then presents the information in the traditional SAPGUI format.
    How can interactive reports ( where I need to select the org unit, personnel number etc.) be designed as a Java iview ?
    Thanks
    Rachel

    Any report that you write in ABAP has to run in ABAP context. You can easily view this reports  via ITS(SAP Gui for HTML) or SAP Gui. If you need to pull this reports in JAVA then you will have to write a RFC function module to execute this report and pass the (formatted)data back to JAVA. Java will then render this formatted data.
    You also skip the ABAP part and rewrite all this report completely in JAVA where it will only get the data from SAP via RFC. Formatting and reporting will done on the java side.

  • Error in report generation-Load report failed

    I have installed crystal reports  for VS2005 runtime in my live environment.When i try to load the report file from a .Net page i am getting the error'Error in Report generation-Load report failed'.
    This works fine in development and testing but when moved to production we are having issues.
    I believe i have a workaround i.e i need to open the rpt in a VS 2005 environment and re-write the connection string again.This fix had worked in development and testing when we had the same issue.
    But not sure if this is a known issue with crystal reports and if so do we have any hot fixes for the same.
    Please help.

    Hi Don,
    The reason why i posted the item on 'data Connectivity issues' is because i suspect the problem is with the connection string.Though i had provided the correct connection string,re-writing the connection string with the same info might help to fix the issue with loading the report.
    Does it mean that there is a problem in the connectivity?
    I have a risk here that i cant re-write the connection string..i.e to open the RPT file in VS2005 and bind it.The production web server & database server sits in a  third party environment and it is not in the company network.So i cant connect to this server to re-write from any other severs in the network.
    Is there any fix which can applied to the server to get this issue resolved?
    Cheers
    Nithya.

    Hi,
    Before this you have to prepare your internal table with tab delimeter structure with data.
    data: wa_appl_title like line of appl_title.
           concatenate fhdr '/file_details_'
                        sy-datum '_' sy-uzeit '.txt' into fhdr.
    *MOD01 - start.
           open dataset fhdr for output in text mode." ENCODING DEFAULT.
            open dataset fhdr for output in text mode ENCODING DEFAULT.
    *MOD01 - end.
            if sy-subrc = 0.
              clear wa_appl_title.
              read table appl_title into wa_appl_title index 1.
              if sy-subrc = 0.
                transfer wa_appl_title to fhdr.
              endif.
              loop at appl_it.
