Print ESS Working Time Timesheet in WebDynpro

We are currently upgrading from the ITS Working Time service (CATW) to the new WebDynpro 7.0 Working Time Business Package. In CATW ITS, there was a print button that used a report specified in the CATS Profile. We are not able to locate this kind of print functionality on the WebDynpro version of Record Working Times. Has anyone else run into this? Are we going to have to make a mod to the JAVA to add this specific print functionality?
Any insight to this would be very helpful. I have an open OSS message into SAP that was just sent today.
Thank you,
Mark Musser

Hi Niket,
Thank you for your reply. We can also use that print button but we have an official looking timesheet that is attached to the time data entry profile on the back end that we would like to have printed. It used to access that report in the ITS service (CATW) when clicking on the print button but that functionality has gone away.
If anyone has figured out an easy way to get that capability back, we would really like to hear from you.
Thank you,
Mark.

Print record working time

I have configured record working time, everything looks EXCEPT there is no option to PRINT, how can we handle this ,
Version ep7 sp13...
Thanks in Advance.

I did open a message with SAP regarding the missing print button and the fact that employee indicative data has also been removed from the time sheet in SAP's latest release. After much back and forth, SAP has concluded that this is missing functionality and they directed me to the infamous Note 11. Here is the text of Note 11 for anyone who may not be familiar with it:
<i>Dear Customer,
We regret to inform you that the function you require is not included in the SAP standard system.
If you consider filing a development request, we recommend that you either contact your Customer Competence Center (CCC) or one of the User Groups to place a stronger emphasis on your request. A list of SAP User Groups is available at http://service.sap.com/communities.
For more information, see http://service.sap.com/rollin.
Best regards,
SAP Active Global Support</i>
There is a "print" option on the iView which, when enabled, opens a new window for printing purposes. However, this provides a PageBuilder rendition of the timesheet which is not sized or oriented properly for printing. The result, therefore, is basically a truncated screenshot. Even after manually re-orienting the page to landscape, the timesheet is truncated so no hours show.
I recommended to my client that a development request be filed.
Another perspective that I have been told is that SAP's intent was to replace the Print Time Sheet functionality with the Time Statement functionality. This did not come from SAP, however.
In my opinion, this is an important feature that SAP should re-release as quickly as possible.

Hi Bala
You can have clock in and clock out in a weekly view.
you have to change the data entry profile settings.
In general settings tab in data entry profile click the with clock times button and maintain the Period type to 02 in time settings tab.
And you can view the weekly entry in clock in and clock out.

Adobe PDF won't print non-working time colour in MS Project

Adobe PDF won't print the colour chosen for non-working times in MS Project. I have tried changing the colour, changing the style, moving non-working time in front of tasks and have fiddled with the printer properties, all to no avail. It ignores whatever style I have for non-working time and makes a blank space, although it will take gridline changes . . . . please help!
Shevaun

Thank you for providing the suggestion and the Cleanup tools, however they did not help.
I ran each version of the cleanup tool, and for each I had it clean up Reader and Acrobat (i.e. 4 separate cleanup operations). I then rebooted the machine, and installed Reader 11.0.3.
Still had the same behavior: Reader will not print. I tried printing to a second printer (that is attached via USB)...and it did not work either. I also tried printing to a Cute PDF Writer print driver...and that did not work either. In each case, no print data made it to the Windows print queue (as demonstrated by watching the queue while printing.) No error was raised, but no print data was transmitted.
I then uninstalled Reader 11.0.3, rebooted, and re-installed Reader 9: printing works fine now.
There is definitely something in Reader 10 and Reader 11 that breaks printing in some environments. (As you alluded to...I have seen a number of postings online about printing problems in Reader.)
More details about my environment:
Windows 7 Professional N (Version 6.1, Build 7601: Service Pack 1)
VMWare virtual machine
Two virtual CPUs (each: Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.67 GHz, 2673 Mhz, 1 core, 1 Logicial Processor)
Hardware Abstraction Layer: 6.1.7601.17514
RAM: 3096 (allocated to virtual machine)
Bridged networking
VMware host:
Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit 6.1.7601, Service Pack 1
18 Gig RAM
Intel Core i7 CPU 920 @2.67 GHz
VMWare Workstation 9.0.2 build-1031769
(but problem existed on older version of VMWare Workstation 7.x as well)

Customising Working Time Web Dynpro

Hello all,
EP6 SP15.
We had ESS SP10. There was a problem in that the column widths on the ESS Working Time timesheet were 1 digit long (visible)! This has been fixed by SP11 however the column widths seem to be a fixed at a wider size irrespective of the size of the actual data contained.
I asked SAP about this and they said:
'You can set the InputField.length (character based) OR the InpuField
width (CSS-size) to change the column width. InputField.length only
applies when InputField.width is not set. It is necessary to set 'ex' or'em' instead of 'px'.'
Are they implying that the WebDP has to be modified to rectify this?
Does anyone have any other ideas.
Thanks
Mr.T

Hey Tahir
Did you get any solution to this?

Header information not displaying in ABAP Webdynpro record working time

1. I am not seeing the header information, personnel number, name, cost center, on the ABAP Webdynpro record working time timesheet. When I run the timesheet profile in CAT2 the header contains the personnel number, name, cost center, but these do not display when the ABAP Webdynpro timesheet is run
2. Is there a version of the ABAP webdynpro timesheet that prompts for the personnel number, date and profile prior to executing the timesheet? I want to define an ESS link for managers to update timesheets of individual teammates. The teammate do not necessarily have to be their direct reports

Hi David,
CATS Webdynpro application is a OIF fpm. Please check if you have performed the FPM IDR configuration properly.
In standard, the ESS CATS does not prompt for the personnel number except in CE scenario. In MSS addon, you have an option to launch the ESS CATS application on-behalf of the employee. Please refer to the sap library documentation.
Hope this helps,
Regards,

Call ESS FPM CATS Working time application from non FPM web dynpro application on click of button

Hi,
My requirement is to launch ESS Working time application HRESS_AC_CATS_1 from custom web dynpro application.
ESS CATS working time application is configured in LPD_CUST launchpad.
I tried using method cl_hr_navigation_services=>navigate in my custom web dynpro but it did not work.
Regards,
Ibrahim

In case you want to use Launchpad, you can use ABAP class CL_APB_LAUNCHPAD_API. If choose not to use Launchpad, you can use method CONSTRUCT_WD_URL of ABAP class CL_WD_UTILITIES to generate the URL. Specify Web Dynpro application and Web Dynpro Configuration as parameter. Finally create an external window using method CREATE_EXTERNAL_WINDOW that points to that URL.

Working time -? time sheet

hi
     iam scenario where i need to maintain TIMESHEET entry
     for the employees and i am very new working on
      ESS->working time , i can see the leave request ,
     but i need working time also with the leave request there
     where i can perform time sheet entry.
      can any one help me out ? with both showing the
    link in the portal and also configuring the time sheet .
    please help me out ?

Hi kishore,
For Time sheets on ESS we use CATS .
In ESS Customizations only in Working Time there is an option called Record Working Time.
You need to create a Data Entry Profile and assign the same to the Employee with your different requirements.

Differnec in front end and back end of ESS record time from ABAP point

HI Expert,
Here I need information regarding employee working time.
Quary is we are trying to restricts the records entered in time sheet through user exit CATS0006.
Here in CATS0006 one table is there CHECK_TABLE.
when I am executing time sheet from back end(t code CAT2) the table Check_table is having forward and backword 6 weeks data from the key date and date_from and date_to fields have correct value for week start and end.So that I am able to validate records.
But when I am executing from ESS>Working time>Record working time and set an external debugger on CATS0006 I got that at this time CHECK_TABLE has only edited entry and date_from and date_to field value are also not correct one.
Please suggest what may the cause of problem ,is it the case with your system as well?
Is it a problem with SAP standard code?

Hi,
What password are you talking about, the one created with the workgroup manager? That will be difficult since 2010 doesn't have the workgroup manager anymore. You can still use the database in the 2010 environment but you can't make any changes to the original
database without the password.

Enhance legend in Record Working Time IView

Hi,
I am working on SAP NetWeaver Portal 7.0(Service Pack 4). New NetWeaver functionality in Record Working Time section(of ESS>Working time ) allows employees to enter their working times for different attendance/absence types showing different colours in calendar for Rejected and Not Released statuses. Now the requirement is to include one more colour to show the approved times in the calendar. Ie, Currently legend has two colors with text, like ( <Red box> Rejected <Light Red box> Not Released), now i have to add ' <Green box> Approve ' beside 'Not Released' text, and if manager approves the time sheet then those dates will be displayed in green color.
If any body worked on the similar type of requirement or having knowledge....please let me know how to achieve this req.
Thanks in advance.

HI,
You need to implement BADI for this ..
BADI name : "PT_ABS_REQ"
In the BADI "PT_ABS_REQ" interface "IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ" you can find the method
"SET_CALENDAR_COLOR" in that you can set the colure for the Absent type ......
Adjust Colors of Calendar and Team Calendar
Functionality
You can use this method to change the colors in the team calendar.
In the standard system, the different statuses for requests have different colors. You can use this method to differentiate the colors of requests depending on the following aspects:
Status of requests (status)
Action that an employee has executed: new request, delete, change (UIA operation)
Subtype of absence (SUBTY)
Full-day or partial-day absence (BEGMT, where BEGMT = 0 signifies a full-day absence)
Application mode ( mode). You specify the application mode in the Select Employees for the Team Calendar IMG activity.
Color Display of Status of Leave Requests(COLORS_ACTIVE). You specify this status in the Specify How Leave Is Displayed and Default Values IMG activity.
Available Colors
You have a choice of 16 colors. The 16 colors are hard coded, that is, you cannot change them or add other ones.
The available colors are stored with their RGB value as constants of the CL_PT_REQ_CONST class. Use these constants if you want to change the colors.
Notes
If you change the colors in the team calendar, you should also adapt the legend accordingly. You can use the Adjust Legend for Calendar and Team Calendar method to do so.
Hope this work!!!
