MSS Team Calendar and ESS in MSS

Question

Hi OADP and MSS experts,
My client organization is implementing ESS (Basic personal information and leave request services) and MSS (leave approvals and team calendar). Partly the organization has a line manager (A012) relationship who would approve the leave request in MSS (which is fine using SAP standard). Other than line manager relationship, they also have Absence Coordinators who approve the leave request where there are no line manager relationship.
I would like to get your views on the following-
1. Is it possible to use standard OM relationship 'S' A/B 290 is administrator of 'O' for Absence Coordinators and configure OADP to get the views in the MSS team calendar.
2. also the absence coordinators - can they submit leave request (ESS in MSS - related activity for Leave request) on behalf of employees based on the above relationship (A/B 290) .Please note that they will not have chief position assignment
If this can be achieved by OADP configuration I would appreciate any help with configuration documentation.
Looking forward to get your opinions and suggestions please.
Many thanks,
Terence

Answer 1

Here is the paths
V_TWPC_ORGVWGRP > MSS_TMV_EE
Check the IMG step
Integration with Other mySAP.com Components -> Business Packages/Functional Packages -> Object and Data Provider -> Organizational Structure Views -> Group Organizational Structure views
MSS_TMV_EE is assigned to MSS_TMV_EE_ORG2 etc etc
And then
These organizational views are defined in IMG step u2026u201Ddefine Organizational Structure viewsu201D:
They have the following Object selections:
MSS_TMV_EE_ORG2
Organizational View             MSS_TMV_EE_ORG2 Employees from Organizational Structure
Object Selection               MSS_TMV_EE_ORG2 Employees in Org.Structure Up to Level 2
Group of Data Views            MSS_TMV_EE      Display
Then you have to check the IMG step u2026 Object and Data Provider -> Object Provider -> Define Object selections:
Object Selection     MSS_TMV_EE_ORG2 Employees in Org.Structure Up to Level 2
   Rule for Root Objects          MSS_TMV_RULE1   Managed Organizational Units
   Rules for Navigation Objects   MSS_TMV_RULE3   Organizational Structure Up to Level
   Rule for Target Objects        MSS_TMV_RULE4   Employees of an Organizational Unit
Then you can check the rules for object selection: IMG u2026Object provider -> define Rules for Object selection
Object Selection Rule          MSS_TMV_RULE1   Managed Organizational Units
Evaluation Path               SAP_MANG Org. units managed by persons or users >>> got from t77aw
Depth of Structure
Function Module
Other examples
MSS_LTV_RULE1: evaluation path SAP_MANG >>> This has to be customised accordingly using T77aw
MSS_LTV_RULE2: SBESX
MSS_LTV_RULE5:  MSSDIREC
MSS_LEA_RULE1: SAP_MANG
MSS_LEA_RULE2: SBESX
You can use FM or above table T77aw.
Let me know if you have further queries.
