Multiple Data entry profiles in ESS -Webdynpro?

Hi All,
We have an issue here with the data entry profile.
The current system(ITS with 4.6c) has multiple data entry profile, from which the employee can select the profile according to the personel area, he is in. ( Employee can have multiple data entry profiles ) .
But in new frontend Portal, we dont have such option in EP 7 how can we achieve this in ESS- Webdynpro applications.
Need your valuable inputs on this.
Regards,
NR

Hi,
The newer version does not allow you to enter multiple ESS Profile. You will have to define one profile for the CVR parameter. If you think you the ESS User needs multiple profiles, its better to revisit those profiles and change them so that each user gets one profile that fits his time entry.
If you search in this forum, I think one earlier post had a good informative discussion about the same.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi Bala /Krish,
Thanks for the replies. i understand that based on the employee groups, sub groups a data enry profile would be assigned to an employee..
Lets take up this scenario
1) Employee 1 is assigned to Per Area 1 (HR) and lets say data entry profile 1 on monday
2) He is asked to work for a diffrent Per area 2 ( project systems ) for 1 day and then after that day he is assigned back to profile 1 again.
3) On wednesday he comes bak , he is already assigned to data entry profile 1, where he books his time for Per Area 1 (HR). Now how does he book his time for the one day where he was assigned to Per Area 2 ( PS)
any ideas ? I know this wud be a custom enhancement,
wanted to know
1) if BAPI and Web dynpro ESS record working time code will need to be modified ?
2) What wud be effort and time estinate for such a requirement ?
3) is it possible ?
Appreciate your inputs, i guess i am going on asking questions

Multiple time entry profile in ESS

Hi ,
We are implementing ESS on ECC6.0 and EP7.0.
In R/3 side we have multiple time sheet entry profiles, how can we implement the time sheet entry scenario in portal which allows multiple entry profiles because as per my understanding ESS user in portal would only be having ESS profile assigned to them.
Please let me know if we can have multimple profile implemented in portal.
Thanks
Ankur

In the old versions of the ESS business package (ITS based), we had the flexibilty to use more than one Time Entry profiles.
AFAIK, you might not be able to use more than one Time Entry Profile with the new versions of ESS BP (Webdynpro based). The application picks up the "CVR" parameter of the user. (Default profile is SAP).
Thanks,
Raj

Problem with data entry profile ESS ?

Hey All,
My problem is i have a data entry profile "ESS".
In CAT2 transaction i see the ESS data entry profile as follows (suppose)
<b>A1 A2 A3 Mon Tue Wed .... Sat Sun A4</b>
I assigned CVR parameter to this profile
Now in ESS i see the data entry section as
<b>A1 A2 A3 A4 Mon Tue Wed ......Sat Sun</b>
The order of the fields is getting sorted.
Is it anything to do with the settings you referred earlier?

First Day of Week in Data Entry Profile

Does anyone know if there is a standard SAP RFC i can use in my Web Dynpro application to get the First Day of Week entry in a user's Data Entry Profile?
Thanks,
-Kevin

Hello Kevin,
Function Module returns the System Date from that SAP System(R/3). I have checked this BAPI with '200743 - current week' GET_WEEK_INFO_BASED_ON_DATE, it returns proper data like Start Date and End Date.
I Assume, you are using this in your Java WD. You can write your own function for this. This will return the day of the week.
Calendar xmas = new GregorianCalendar(2007, Calendar.SEPTEMBER, 23);
int dayOfWeek = xmas.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Day : "+dayOfWeek);
Note : - week starts with 0 . 0 - Monday 6 -Saturday.

Converted XML not showing multiple data entries correctly

Hello
I am creating a PDF Form from a xsd scheme but when I have data that could require multiple entries the converted xml is a mess. I am curently trying to create a way to add fields for multiple children. I created an expanding table and the fields are automatically copied when I click on „+“ or are deleted when I click on „-“ . If I have multiple rows for children then the converted xml looks like this :
The correct xml for multiple data entries should look like this (this is from a xml scheme not made in LiveCycle) :
Even if I copy the fields without creating a table, the converted xml is still a mess just like on the first image. Is there a way to show the xml from the PDF from correctly. I linked the xsd scheme that I am using for the PDF form: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B30LkLSwYgB4SFN5bTkyLW1fOVU/edit?usp=sharing

Time Sheet - Data Entry Profile(T-Code CAT2)

Hi All,
I have 4 data entry profiles in the system and will like to delete 2 of them as they are no longer required. If somebody had booked time (in past) by using the profile which I want to delete, will it have any kind of impact. Please advice whetehr it is safe to delete the profiles.
Regards
Tapan

Hi Tapan,
Not that I am aware of either - just checking a where used on the data element didn't reveal anything either.
Please bear in mind the following before deleting the profile however - What the profile is used for is to define whether data can be entered for just individual employees or groups of employees, what deata can be maintained, whether the timeframe is weekly or monthly and whether the data is subject to approval. All things tho consider when deleting any - to make sure the business needs can still be met and also there can be specific auths to certain time profiles to allow only certain employees to enter certain data etc.
Hope this helps,
Kind regards,
Danny

There are actually 5 queries in this report now. From what I understand about a union query, I don't think it will work here because the data being returned in each of the queries is so different. I basically need to know how to make all the criteria for each individual to be displayed before proceeding to the next data set, which will include the same data as the first, but for the next employee, and so on. I need to basically create a repeating frame with each individual's respective data I guess, but every time I do, it tells me that it's referencing an invalid group.

Changed version of Data Entry Profile imported results in empty worklist

Hi,
We've just moved, among other things, changed versions of all of the data entry profiles to our production server. Everything went well however all users get an empty worklist to start with.
Do you maybe know why this is? Is this standard behaviourd? And is/would there be any way to overcome this and do not have users start with a 'fresh' worklist?
Your help and input is very much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Tim

Hi,
The worklist is the one available in HR transaction CAT2. Source would be HR?
Kind regards,
Tim

Data Entry Profile for Time Sheet Entry on Internet / Intranet

hello gurus,
i am trying to configure Time sheet entry on portal via internet / intranet. I did come across articles on it but am confused as to how to create Date Entry Profile as it seems to be the first step in configuring the time sheet.
Also mt OT calculation shud be based on the hrs input in the time sheet. How can this be achieved
Any inputs on this pls??
rgds,

At a very high level you will need to:
1. Create the Data Entry Profiles. These are the templates that employees see when they go into their timesheet, and there are lots of options depending on what other modules and/or further processing is required for the time entries.
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Cross-Application Components > Time Sheet > Specific Settings for CATS regular > CATS regular > Record Working Time > Set Up Data Entry Profiles
2. Define the field selection. i.e. the columns that will be visible in the timesheet, and which ones are required/read only
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Cross-Application Components > Time Sheet > Specific Settings for CATS regular > CATS regular > Record Working Time > Define Field Selection
3. If you are using manager approvals, you will then need to set up the approval views. The default ones may be sufficient for your requirements or they may need tweaking slightly
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Cross-Application Components > Time Sheet > Specific Settings for CATS regular > CATS regular > Approve Working Time
4. In order to valuate the entries you will then need to set up a Time Evaluation schema; this will analyse the time entries and convert them into wage and/or time types which can then be processed by Payroll for payment. There are standard schema which can be used as a basis, but you will need to tailor them to meet your requirements.
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Time Management > Time Evaluation
For all of these sections it is worth reading the SAP help material either in the IMG itself or in the online SAP library
e.g. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60/helpdata/en/64/400b2b470211d189720000e8322d00/frameset.htm for CATS,

Data Entry Profiles - CAT2

Hi Gurus,
When I enter the transaction code CAT2, We have 10 profiles and I want a user to see only 3 profiles related to his Country UK.
If a US user enter the tcode CAT2 he needs to see only 2 profiles that are related to his country instead of all the 10 profiles.
Is there any way to do such type?
Extra info: Already I created the authorization group for data entry profiles related UK to 001, so that he get access to only UK profiles. The main task is instead of all 10 profles he should see only 3 profiles related to UK.
Please do let me know if you need any further elaboration.
Thanks,
Kshriram
Edited by: Kshriram on Aug 12, 2009 5:07 AM

Hi Shriram,
you had mentioned that you have set the authorisation group to 0001 for all UK profiles so that UK employee's can only access the profiles with authorisation group 0001.
Instead, would help if you have different authorisation group set for each timesheet profile.And also set the CVR in the user parameter. When the CVR is set it automatically directs the employee to the profile set up in the CVR, when the CAT2 transaction is entered.(employee would not see the other timesheet profile option at all) This colud solve your issue.
Hope this helps!
