OTL & Self Service Module on internet

Hi,
We are using OTL and self service module in R12.1.3/11gr2. We are looking to deploy OTL and Self Service to be on Internet but other modules are not like GL etc. Employee don't need to come secure office connection and do their work or submit time sheet etc. Please point me if any ML document or presentation , how to configure OTL and Self service module on internet.
thanks

Hi,
All you have to do is assign the profile Responsibility Trust Level to a responsibility which users want to access outside the secured area.
Make sure the value is External for this profile.
If you want to give access to only a set of functions under a responsibility, then you will have to create a new responsibility.
Cheers,
Vignesh

  • OTL Self Service Time Card to OTL Timekeeper

    Hi All,
    I'm new to the Oracle HRMS module and have a question. Can you update OTL Timekeeper with time cards from OTL Self Service? I did read a very brief, one or two line sentence in one of the implementation manuals that said you could. However, at this point, I have researched in vein and still cannot find any information as to how or what should be done.
    Any help is greatly appreciated,
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Hi Gaurav,
    Sure.
    We would like to take the employee time cards being entered into the (OTL Self Service Time Entry) and once approved, have them automatically populate the OTL Timekeeper by employee. These employees are already defined in various Timekeeper groups. Once the supervisor opens up that group in Timekeeper they will be able to export those employee time records to an excel spreadsheet for further data manipulation. That's our end goal.
    The question I have is, how does the upload from (OTL Self Service Time Entry to OTL Timekeeper) happen?
    Does it happen once the employee time card has been approved?
    or
    Do you have to launch some type of concurrent job, etc?
    I just can't find that process answer and what if anything that needs to be done.
    Again, thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

  • DB Connection in Oracle Self Service Modules

    Hi,
    I have one question about oracle Self Service modules.
    I am using Oracle Ebusiness Suite 11.5.10 on Oracle 10g database.
    What database user it connects to when we login to Oracle Apps Self service modules?
    Assuming that its 'APPS' db user, can I change this db user to some other user ?
    We are planning to archive and purge the workflow tables to another database and want to access that
    data using db link.
    So, we want to access archived data stored in other database using the db link.
    Can somebody explain me how to achieve this?

    What database user it connects to when we login to Oracle Apps Self service modules?Apps user.
    Assuming that its 'APPS' db user, can I change this db user to some other user ? You cannot change this user as it is not easy to do that, plus you would lose support (unless you have your own custom module).

  • OTL Self Service Error Message

    We use OTL Timekeeper functionality for entering time, but want to switch to some Self Serve OTL time entry also. The error messages we are currently using work fine in OTL. The overtime rule goes out, validates the time entered, and returns an error apparopriately. When I try this in Self Service, I get the following errors:
    The Oracle error is: ORA-20000: ORA-20001:ORA-20001: Formula KCI_JEAN_TEST_TOKEN: ORA-01403: no data found ORA-01403: no data found Cause: During the PL/SQL execution part, an Oracle error was detected. Action: Please refer to your system administrator..
    I am unsure why. If I enter time in Timekeeper, it tells me I don't have enough regular time to charge overtime. However in self serve, I just get this weird message.
    Ideas? I can post my entire fast formula (it calls a pl/sql function to do the actual verification that return any errors found to the fast formula) if you are interested.

    I wrote this code to test the passing of Tokens and it works perfectly. The messages come out condensed into two messages with tokens.

    This one keeps returning the no data found error I listed up top whenever it runs. I'm not really understanding what the issue is though... obviously something with the KCI_OVERTIME_VALIDATION. However the KCI_OVERTIME_VALIDATION runs currently in the current fastformula and it works great without tokens. It returns message1..5 without an error and reads correctly. However as soon as I try and put it in here with tokens, it starts giving me the no data found errors.
    Please note - this works great with Timekeeper, but in Self Service OTL it returns the error.

  • Defaulting the Expenditure Type field in OTL self service screens

    Hello,
    I am having a requirement in OTL to provide the default value for the Expenditure Type in Self Service Screens.
    I have tried to set the attribute “HXC_CUI_EXPTYPE2_LOV” by extending the TimecardCO. But it did not work.
    Can somebody guide me on this issue?
    Regards,
    Munish

    [ There original post I made is incorrect.  The classes/shared libraries need only to be available to the server - they do not need to be available to ALDSP Studio, since the database is access via the server. Double check that the required classes/shared libraries for your jdbc driver are available to your server ]
    I searched our CR database for the stacktrace/error that you have and found serveral CR. Most of them indicate the problem was jar file(s) for the jdbc driver were not present in the client classpath. So - whatever you added to the server classpath (and PATH - if there were also shared object libraries) - we need to add those to the ALDSP Studio (eclipse) classpath (PATH).
    you can put the jar(s) in
    aldsp_3.0\eclipse-plugins\dsp\eclipse\plugins\com.bea.dsp.ide.external_3.0.0
    and modifying
    aldsp_3.0\eclipse-plugins\dsp\eclipse\plugins\com.bea.dsp.ide.external_3.0.0\META-INF/manifest.mf.
    There are two places in manifest.mf you will need to add the jar file - once under Bundle-Classpath and once under Export-Package.

  • Customer Self Service via SAP Internet Sales

    This is my first time posting on the SDN, so please forgive my ignorance if this is in the wrong place.  We at Bentley have taken on the massive task of implementing a customer self service solution replacing our Siebel installation.  We are still mapping out how things will work and how it will be architected, but wanted to know if anyone in the community has any white papers on how the security architecture is supposed to look.  Here is our challenges:
    1.  Utilizing multiple info sources including BW (for reporting), CRM (for customer information and sales placement), R/3 (for invoice queries), and many .NET applications. 
    2.  Supporting over 300k contacts each with a desire to maintain their own user base.
    3.  Currently utilizing the portal.
    Again, we are trying to integrate all above to provide a solid solution for our customers.  SAP Internet Sales looks like a viable option, but that obviously would require a user master record in each SAP system (300k in each?) to support the hierarchy above for reporting, queries, and data entry.
    Has anyone else in the community successfully implemented a similiar solution, and if so.. Would you be willing to share some ideas with us?
    Many Kind Regards,

    Looking at your profile, I assume you may be able to help. I have Portal connected to my ECC system. We have loaded the latest UCES on the portal and configured XCM. Restarted the J2EE system. Everything seems to be ok, as I can do the connection tests from Portal (JCO) and ECC (RFC).
    When i launch the page - http://portal.com:50000/bdisu - i get the following error -
    A general problem has occurred within the logon. The error message is: .
    I dont know how to fix it. I created a message with SAP and they said some config need to be done on the backend, while the functional guys are not aware of any. Can you please guide me to fix this error?

  • OTL Self Service Customisation Question

    I am currently going through our implementation of OTL and I am looking to make a few changes, I have a reasonable grasp of most of it and how it all fits together but I can't for the life of me figure out one thing.
    In the ldt files for the entry/review/confirmation etc, the code is referring to all kinds of fields which appear to be references to values in the timecard.
    These include stuff like hxccuiprojectid, hxccuitaskprojectid, hxccuitetprojectid.
    These values seem very similar to the a few we have setup in the AK Regions but I can not find the full set in there..
    Can anyone tell me where the hell these values are setup and what exactly they point to, or is there some kind of variable format you use which Oracle just understands and it's just not very well documented?

    Hi,
    I had a look at document 788130.1 and while I am not currently having problems with the length of attribute6 there is mention of changing the AK Attributes.
    The problem I have is there does not appear to be all the attributes being referenced in attribute6 present as AK attributes.
    Basically I can't find the attributes such as hxccuittaskprojectid, etc....

  • Split up of Time Cards  - OTL Self Service

    Hi,
    I have a requirement that the employee may charge his time against multiple projects. A notification is issued to the corresponding supervisors.
    When the supervisor logs in, he has to see only his project related details.
    Is there any way I can restrict data of other projects popping in...

    user535605,
    Check the project manager approval style. It will provide you what you are looking for. I am assuming that by supervisor you mean the corresponding the project manager.

  • Adding comment in the OTL Timecard ( in both timekeeper entry & Self-Service)

    Hi all,
    I need to add a new comment field in the timecard (both the timekeeper entry page & the Timecard Self-Service page).
    I am going through the white paper "Configuring The Oracle Time and Labor Timecard User Interface" currently.
    what i understand is modifying the LDT file will allow me to add the desired comment in the TimeCard Self Service page, while I need it to be exist in the Timekeeper Entry page also.
    i should be able to enter the employee timecard with my comment in the new comment field using the timekeeper entry page and submit it for approval. The approver should be able to review and see my comment in the employee timecard self service page.
    what are the required steps to have the new comment field exist in both layouts?
    also, is it possible to add the comment not as a new column, can we add the field just beside the seeded comment in the Timekeeper Entry down beside the Select All/Deselect All button?
    Note: I am using the Payroll TimeCard Layout.
    Thanks for any help.

  • Bank KFF in Self Service

    Hi,
    We need to use employee Bank KFF in self service module, but dont want to use entire Payment method.
    Any way we can use only Bank details KFF in employee self service.

    So you dont want to use 'Manage Payroll payments' on ESS ?
    If you just want to fetch the data from the KFF, then you would have to replicate the OAF page similar to the manage Payroll Payments page.

    Hi,
    1) What folder is the standard SSHR module contained? $PER_TOP
    2) which files should I copy from the old server? You will need to check what custom database objects you have and move it. For forms/reports, check under the product module and copy the files.
    3) iSetup is also apply to the 11i ?Yes.

  • View Employe Element Entries  via Manager Self Service

    Hi all,
    Hope you can help me with this.
    I'm working on HRMS version 12.
    Try to show our users the manager self service module.
    I cant find there the employee's element entries.
    I can find almost all employees details & salaries in the different function, but the elements are gone...
    Can anyone try to help to find the elements entries in Manager Self Service ?
    Thanks.

    Additionally, if you have an Advanced Benefits licence and are using the ICD (Independent Compensation Distribution) page to allocate awards (which create element entries) you can use the View History page of that to show elements linked to Standard Rates.

  • OTL Time Card issue in Self Service

    Hi All,
    I am working in OTL. I m new to this module. Currently i am facing the below issue.
    In OTL, there is a validation of project and task when user enters time card.
    Whenever user enters time cards against the hour type which is not of PTO (e.g. regular) etc, project number
    and project task should be mandatory.
    It is working fine in OTL Time Keeper, but not working in Self Service Time Card.
    I am analyzing the issue but not getting the exact solution for the same.
    Kindly reply me to resolve it.
    Thanks in Advance

  • OTL/HXC - Adding Help Link to Self Service Time Entry (TcActivitiesPG)

    Hello folks,
    I'm a system analyst newly assigned to handling Oracle HR at my job. One thing I'm looking into is the possibility of adding a link to help documentation on our intranet (i.e. outside of Oracle) to the page where employees enter their time (using Self Service OTL). The problem is that no matter how much I look at personalizations for this page, I can't seem to track down a page element that could be used for that. I know there should be something, but I'm not having any luck.
    Does anyone have any suggestions for me? How would you add an arbitrary link at the top (or bottom) of the self service timecards?

    We're in the process of upgrading to R12; is it possible to add or custom links through personalization there, or is it still something that can only be done via customization? (We can certainly do the latter, but were hoping for a solution that didn't require it.)
