Performance Appraisals- Column creation

Hi All,
I want to create anew columm, but it is not available,How can i create a new column, is it possible to create by configuration ?
Regards,
Evani

Hi Evani,
Yes you can create new columns in appraisal template. But before that you need to configure the column in OOHAP_BASIC.
Once this is done add the column details to the Category group and Category. Then you can configure the new column in the template level.
I am sure this question is answered in past in the forum. So please search the forum for additional details. Also please dont ask the same questions in multiple threads.
I hope you agree with me.

Add Qualification" free enhancement in Performance Appraisals

Hi all
I trying to activate the "Add Qualification" free enhancement in Performance Appraisals.
Can anyone tell me:
1. Can I use this enhancement only in the VB level?
2. How to define correctly the "Refers to Attributes of"
3. How can I set up that the scale will be according to the scale maintained in the Qualification (Q)?
Tx a lot
Maya

Hello,
You have within PM the possibility to extend the appraisal document with additional elements based on flexible criteria (for example employee, country assignment etc.). The added elements can be appraisal objects (VB/VC) or external objects (D, Q, etc).
These added elements need to be defined in a way that the appraisal application understands it. If we take the Q object, it has no configuration that describes how to be used in an appraisal environment.
Thats where the reference objects come in place. These objects tells the appraisal application how to behave in case of added new elements. A reference element is a VB or VC and has the same settings as a VB or VC you add fixed in a template configuration.
So here you can then say, if you add one or more Q's to teh document then all these Q's use the settings of the reference object (and will use for example only FAPP with scale YHM as per column config on ref. object).
If you have a fix or free enhancement then atleast one reference object needs to exist. however multiple reference objects are allowed, in the implementation of the fix/free enhancement you can then program which element is to be used when.
in the config, double clicking on the entry after 'Refers to Attributes of' will navigate you to the reference object configuration.
Hope this clarifies the concept of reference objects.

Performance appraisals template changes

Hi
Can I, by transport between DEV and QA, insert a new question (instead of 5, I want to add a sixth) to a performance appraisals template which has existing forms?
thanks
Maya

Hi,
I had a similar question a couple of week ago and this was the advice given:
All Changes that deal with the addition / removal of Rows and Columns can seriously harm your documents. If you delete Values from the Value List, you should get into troubles too.
You can see the document structure as stored in the database with the report RHHAP_DISPLAY_DB. If you change something, that is not stored in the displayed tables - but in the customizing instead - chances are high, that the change is possible.
In other words, adding a sixth question is not advisable.
I know this doesn't help you issue but at least prevents you from getting in bigger problems.

Need help with complex column creation command

Hello, all
I need help with a complex column creation command and SQL anywhere help is not sufficient for it.
Here is the situation:
I need to write a generic DDL "alter table" command, which can add/modify columns without knowing in advance if they already exist in the destination table.
Is there a command, which looks like:
alter table "table1" add (on existing modify) column1 <datatype> <default> ?
Thank you,
Arcady

Hi.
I don't think this is supported in alter table command. But you can code that inside an if statement which queries systables & syscolumns. Your code should be something like that:
if (select count(*) from sysobjects, syscolumns where sysobjects.id = syscolumns.id and sysobjects.name = 'some_table' and syscolumns.name = 'some_column') < 1
begin
alter table some_table add some_column numeric(12) not null
end
This is an example..

Trainning and Performance Appraisals on EHP5

Hi,
We are implementing ESS/MSS on EHP5.
In Appraisal Documents solution on EHP5, which is developed in WD4A, only the performance appraisals are showed in the list to the employees perform theis appraisals.
Our customer would like that training appraisals were showed in the list as well as performance appraisals. I searched for a BADI, but I haven´t found it. SAP told us to use LSO, but the customer won´t use LSO.
Is there any BADI to use or will we have to create an Z?
Thanks.
Bruno

Hi Siddharth,
For whom needs to achieve the same requirements as mine, follow the solution to list the learning appraisals as well as performance appraisals.
1 - Create an enhancement point in CL_HRHAP00_STARTPG_POWL method IF_POWL_FEEDER~GET_ACTIONS
How to: http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/EnhancementFramework-ImplicitEnhancement-EnhancingstandardtransactionPA30forinfotype0618-Academic+Qualifications
2 - Add the code:
ZHRT0009 is a table which we created to store the VA codes.
IF i_applid EQ 'OSA-POWL-ESS'.
      data lt_template_lso TYPE TABLE OF ZHRT0009.
      data ls_template_lso TYPE ZHRT0009.
      select * from ZHRT0009 INTO TABLE lt_template_lso
      WHERE ZNOME = 'PORTAL_AVAL_REACAO' AND ZPARAMETRO = 'VA'.
      loop AT lt_template_lso INTO ls_template_lso.
        ls_templates-objid = ls_template_lso-ZVALOR_PAR.
        ls_templates-plvar = plan_version.
        ls_templates-otype = ls_template_lso-ZPARAMETRO.
        APPEND ls_templates TO lt_templates.
      ENDLOOP.

Flexible Performance-Error in creation of corporate goals!

Hi,
We are facing a problem, where an error ( u201CEntered dates must be in the current yearu2019 ) is thrown by system while creating Goals spanning two years i.e. our Appraisal Year is from 01.03.2011 to 30.04.2012. Hence we want to create goals for period starting from 01.03.2011 to 30.04.2012.
Please help, how to resolve this error.
Thanks,
Prashant

Hi Prashant
For the flexible performance there is the enhancement implementation HRHAP00GOAL_PERIOD_GEN to check specific for the goal creation.
It has the following methods:
IF_HAP_GOAL_PERIOD~PERIOD_DEFAULTING     Default the validity period for goals/cascading/rating
IF_HAP_GOAL_PERIOD~PERIOD_CHECKING     Check the entered validity period for goals/cascading/rating
IF_HAP_GOAL_PERIOD~PERIOD_VISIBILITY     Determine whether the period can be changed by the user
You would need to change the implementation class. The standard is CL_HAP_GOAL_PERIOD_GEN.

Regarding Database performance for report creation

Hi,
Currently i have one database in that two schema one for table data and second for reports creation.But it is taking more time to display data because there is more load on first schema.
I want to create second database for report schema .But i have to access table data from first database .
1) There is one option to fetch data from first database is through DB Link . But i think it also takes more time to fetch data.
Is there any way i can access data from first database and i get more performance with creating new database.
Kindly give me suggestion . What should i do to improve reports performance?

1. Use Oracle Streams and replicate tables between databases. WHile using reporting, you'll refer to the second database
2. Create Standby database, it's the clone of your database where you can update it by adding archived redo log files from primary database

Appraisals - Column settings

We are implementing Ehp4 Web Dynpro ABAP UI for Performance Management. The appraial template has been configured and released via transaction phap_catalog_pa. Tab and Process configuration for the Temaplate has been defined. Apprasial documents are created using this template. Although a rating scale is assigned to a Score column in the Appraisal Template, this rating scale seems to be inactive or missing as the values are not displayed in this column in the portal (via MSS). The 'Weighted Average' is assigned to the Criteria Group as part of configuration, the individual (criteria) elements are not averaged up to the Criteria group level when assigning rating to the documents. What could be causing this as this configuration is working fine in SAP (back-end). Is there something that needs to activated.

Hi,
So for that you have to either pass the values to the column using web dynpro , or u have to change that column to a listbox & insert the values in Adobe form.
Then you can able to see the values when you re executing it from ESS portal.
If you want to pass the values to the column using web dynpro, try to search it in Web dynrpo using ABAP/Java section.
If you want to know how to pass the value from Adobe form then please try to search in Interactive form Fourms.
Hope this might help you.

Gaurav

Export from SP list to Excel: Excel doesn't show changed colum name. It shows only the original column names, which would be done by the column creation.

Hello,
I have an excel list with some columns. I changed the name of some of the column. When I export this list to excel, I always get the first column name, which was created by the creation of the column, and not the new one.
Is there some possibility to export a SP list to export with the new column names?
I'm waiting for your help,
BR
Damian

Hi Damian,
I tested in my environment, change the column name and export to excel list, the exported field name is the correct one.
Please check the column name from somewhere else from site UI, you could check from SharePoint designer or powershell script.
[system.reflection.assembly]::loadwithpartialname("microsoft.sharepoint")
$site= New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite ("http://siteurl")
$web=$site.OpenWeb()
$list=$web.Lists["CustomList"]
$list.Fields |select ID, title, internalname| more
In addition, I wonder if the issue occurs to all lists or one specific list. If the issue only occurs to one list, please try to save this list as template and create a new list based on this list and test the issue again.

Rebecca Tu

Help with Datagrid Column Creation

I'm trying to get a better understanding of how the Spark DataGrid component works so that I can create and extended version for one of my projects. One of the things that really has me stumped is how the datagrid sets up the columns based on the dataprovider when no explicit columns are defined. I've been able to debug through the datagrid initialization up to the point where the setter for dataprovider gets called. At that point my debug trace goes 'down the rabbit hole' so to speak, and when it comes back the columns are initialized but I can't figure out how. Could someone please point me to the Class/function that is actually responsible for creating the columns from the dataprovider if they are not defined explicitly?

I finally managed to track down the code I needed, it's in the commitProperties method of Grid.as (line 3555). That's the good news. The bad news is I still seem to be missing something. My understanding was, if the datagrid autogenerated the columns, those columns would be replaced if another collection of columns are defined for the datagrid at some later point. For some reason that doesn't seem to be happening for me.
The datagrid I'm working with is part of a larger component with a skin. The list of columns for the datagrid is bound to an ArrayList defined in the hostComponent of the skin. I can understand why the creation of the columns could happen before the binding from the host triggers, what I don't get is why they aren't overridden later. Any suggestions?

Dynamic table column creation

Hi All,
I am trying to create a table where the number of columns is equal to the number of entries in an output table in my context. How do I go about creating columns dynamically dependant on the number of entries in a table?
Kind regards
Seb

If you really need to create table columns programmatically, you can do this in the wdDoModifyView() method of the view controller.
Store the configuration data for the columns in the view controller context and write some code like the following:
private static void addColumn(IWDTable table, String id, String attributeName)
IWDTableColumn column = (IWDTableColumn)
    table.getView().createElement(IWDTableColumn.class, id);
IWDInputField editor = (IWDInputField)
    table.getView().createElement(IWDInputField.class, null);
column.setTableCellEditor(editor);
editor.bindValue(attributeName);
table.addColumn(column);
public static void wdDoModifyView(
IPrivateXYZView wdThis,
IPrivateXYZView.IContextNode wdContext,
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDView view,
boolean firstTime)
//@@begin wdDoModifyView
if (<table needs to be recreated>)
    IWDTable table = (IWDTable)
      view.getElement(<tableID>);
    table.destroyAllColumns();
    addColumn(table, "columnA", "attributeA");
    // etc.
//@@end
This assumes you have created the table itself during design time and bound its data source already. If needed, this can also be done programmatically.

Performance Appraisals-Only show the document in certain status/substatus

Hello
We would like the appraisee to see the document only in (Status "X" and Substatus "Y") OR Status = "XX". The Appraisee should NOT have access in any other status. Which BADI/approch can help us meet the requirement? We tried using the BADI HRHAP00_DOC_BC but that does not seem to help.
Please advise ASAP.

Hi Swetha,
1) How do you create the person authorized in the Status flow.
(for eg: I have a scenario like this..The authorized HR person would set objectives for group of employees at the beginning of the year for annual appraisals and also he should be able to change or add more objectives if required in the Review period. After the completion of one year, the Manager, Self and Higher Manager will give their ratings and the final result should be displayed only to the HR Personnel)
I have Appraiser, Appraisee, Part Appraiser, Higher Manager and All users right now in my system and I am using All users.
Ans : Person authorized should be created through the tcode PFAC. This s the place where rules for workflow have to be created. Once it si done here, the corresponding rule has to be added to the Tcode OOHAP_BASIC. The rule add to this tcode will be visible in youe category group and category, template in PHAP_CATALOG. As far as possible try to use the standard rules available. All the users you have mentioned above have a standard role in SAP.
2) How would you give authorization to only HR person?
Ans : Can you be more specific here. Like what exactly the HR person has to do?
3) In Status flow, I can see Workflow event. What is it used for?
Ans : Workflow is used to send the notification and the workitem to the user to whom an appraisal document is available for editing in his inbox.
Eg on a typical case-> If a self appraisal has to be done, then a workflow will be triggered in the beginning of in process phase. Then the appraisal doc wil be available in the inbox of the appraisee.
For workflow and Rules(Agent Determination) related objects have an ABAPer who has worked on Workflow.
Hope this helps you.

Subbu.

Performance Management - Column layout in EHP5

Hello experts,
Currently my client is on EHP5 and they are asking us to provide column layout in appraisal template. But in EHP5 we are getting the template row wise (one under another) as below
Customer prospective
Unit of measure
Target
Weightage
Target set for achieving rating 1
Target set for achieving rating 2
Target set for achieving rating 3
Target set for achieving rating 4.
But customer wants column wise (one after next horizontally) as below
Unit of measure Target Weightage Target set for achieving rating 1 Target set for achieving rating 2 .................
We know, this is possible in EHP6. Is it possible to achieve the same in EHP5 as above by enhancing webdynpro component 'HAP_DOCUMENT_BODY'? If any one did, please share the solution or the ideas.
I searched a lot for the solution in SDN, but i am unfortunate to get it. I request you give some light in this issue.
Thanks in advance,
Awaiting for your answer...
With best regards
Damodar

Thanks again Andy,
I agree with you... even I am afraid talking about either of them (Enhancement or Z webdynpro). Because I can not create a layout with those many UI elements in a static way with lot of visibility control based on different phases in the appraisal.
I will definitely award you points..
But still I have some hope, there is some one, who might have cracked this in either ways and they can provide me the solution.
With best regards
Damodar
