Record working time: can't copy row from worklist for previous week

When copying a row from worklist to recorded work time for previous week the following error happen.
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.modelimpl.dynamicrfc.WDDynamicRFCExecuteException: Access with ZERO object reference not possible., error key: RFC_ERROR_SYSTEM_FAILURE

If I recall correctly, the Windows clipboard system allows the developer to place different types of data in the clipboard, and convert between them. It is often possible, for example, to paste formatted text as plain text and so on. Large amounts of data are sometimes stored as "links" back to the producing program, so that it can transfer data directly.
Now this is just a guess, but when you select all with Ctrl+A, there's a chance that Skype in fact puts all the information about the whole message into the clipboard, including its metadata such as time, sender, etc. Dragging would just select the text.
If the receiving program cannot interpret the metadata, and the plain-text version is not also stored in the clipboard, then pasting would fail.
Again, as I say, this is just a guess. We would have to get confirmation from the Skype developers as to whether this is true.
Have you tried pasting into different programs? (Word, plain text editor, Powerpoint...) If one of them can accept the clipboard contents then we may get a further clue.
EDIT: I found this program which inspects clipboard contents directly - http://www.peterbuettner.de/develop/tools/clipview/ which may also be of use.

Add more rows in record working time

Hello Guru's,
IN ESS- Record Working Time - the number of rows visible are set to 8 in the Web Dynpro Java Code.
I had a look at the Note:
Note 957741 - Few lines in the data entry grid of the timesheet webdynpro
The question I had is to have more than 8 rows visible, is it Java Code modification or any other alternative to change the number of Visible Row....
Please reply back asap.
Thanks in advance for your time.
Best Regards,
Punit
This question has been asked a few times already

Hi,
You can personalize the iView to achieve this. I explain how to do this in another thread (second post) : /message/8131024#8131024 [original link is broken].

Hi Siddharth,
Thanks for the reply.
Looks like if need to change the no of rows need to do the WDJ code modifications.
Interesting to know the other details in the message.
But in the reply the interface you mentioned what for that is used,
Since when checked the where used list of the attribute it calls ADD_INITIAL_LINES_TO_TIMESHEET even in the debug it is not allowing to do the changes to value which is 6 by default.
Since the value is constant it cannot be changed.
what was your intention when you gave that reply, curious to know how would it solve the issue.
And one other questions In the Java Code
ListViewerSlim listViewer =
                    new ListViewerSlim(
                         view,
                         wdThis.getRFC_FieldList_Timesheet(),
                         "TimesheetData",
               //               listViewer.destroyAllColumnHeaders();   //XZQ110505
               theTable = listViewer.getTableControl();
               theTable.setVisibleRowCount(8); //Note SOW_957741
               //               theTable.setHeader(null);      //XZQ110505
it is set to 8 why is it different in both the cases.
Since, when we login to the Portal it shows no of rows visible as 8 not 6 as it is in the interface?
any thoughts on this.
Kind Regards,
Pramod

No Default of Personnel Number and Name in Record Working Time

Hi,
In Record Working Time, I have done the necessary settings in CAC1 and CAC2. Every filed that I have selected is appearing except PERNR and Employee Name. Not only that, the fileds themselves are not appearing let alone a value for those. Is there something I am missing?

These fields dont appear in Record working time in ESS till EHP4, From EHP5 these can be seen
but these fields wont be shown

How can I copy documents from a Sharepoint On Premises library to a Sharepoint Online library and at the same time preserving their metadata?

How can I copy documents from a Sharepoint On Premises library to a Sharepoint Online library and at the same time preserving their metadata?
I use the Open Explorer Windows to drag and drop the files, but the metadata are not copied. Thanks.

To maintain the metadata you'll need to use one of the third party tools that does this kind of migration. Metalogix has a product with a free trial that we have used before. (Don't remember whether the free version maintains metadata or not).

Can we display Approved Times as marked in Record Working Time Calendar

Hi All,
In the Calendar provided by Record Working Time iview,I could see the following three types of dates as marked
1)Rejected
2)Not Released
3)Excess Time Recorded
Similarly is it possible for us to mark the dates for which the OT is approved.
Can some thing be done at the backend with configuration to achieve the same.
We do not have NWDI to modify webdynpro code of the iview
Regards,
Santhosh

The reason behind this was
the descision to keep the interface simple: Highlighting should be used
for records (or days on the calendar) for which action might be required
by the user. No matter if a record is approved or still to be approved,
the next step in the workflow is not for the user to perform but for
the approver.
If a record has been rejected, action is required by the user and
therefore the record is highlighted. Currently, there are no plans to
change this.
This could be changed on a project-basis, of course. Such a change
would require action in Java as well as in ABAP, since we do not
transfer the status to the frontend except for the detail screen, which
is for one record only. What would have to be done?
1) Add a new semantic state "approved" to the DDic element used for
semantic states.
2) Set this semantic sate within the RFC-layer (using the method
"build_timesheet", IIRC).
3) Possibly do the same for the calendar as well.
4) Adopt the Java-side to take this new semantic state into account.
This would of course be a modification, so please understand that I
just wrote down a rough outline of the changes that would have to
be introduced. I didn't actually do an analysis or design for such
a modification but simply noted all the steps that I am aware of that
would have to be performed.
Please refer the help.sap.com for further information on this
or SPRO path.

Can employee choose the profile in ESS Record Working Time

Hi all,
Can the employee choose the data entry profile of the CATS in the ESS Record Working Time screen of EP 7.0. And is there any standard functionality available for this is in the Webdynpro side.
Please help
Thanks

Hi Jayesh,
But this functionality is available in the ITS. So, it is very straight that this has not been provide on the ESS Webdynpro.
Then, is there any work around for this.
Thanks

Date Format in Record Working Time

Dear All,
We are using standard ESS SAP Application i.e. Record Working Time. In this application in Weekly View, the date format is MM.DD.YYYY.
But for other countries it should be DD.MM.YYYY.
How to change this format?
We have changed the format in SU3 but still from portal the format is same.
Please help.
Regards,
Nikesh Shah

Hello,
Crystal Reports is now returning all rows where pos_endd is null in the database with the record selection criteria of:
{CHRIS_EmpSal.pos_endd} = date(0, 0, 0)
However, when I run it in Finance One, it doesn't like this date format Is there another way to get both Crystal and Finance One (i.e., SQL Server DB) to recognise the same syntax for null dates?

User exit CATS0003 on loading of record working time screen

Hi Experts
this is continuation to my last thread
ESS CA-TS Missing time sheet,
the requirements remains the same and I just need to confirm below thing
Does cats enhancement user exit CATS0003 will trigger initially at the time of loading the data entry page (record working time screen) in ess? so that before entering the time itself users will get to know that they need to fill previous weeks time before continuing,
experts pls confirm.
Jo

If you want the end user to know what attributes to save time on, Try to make use of template
or A worklist!
Other than this you can just use Default values from Cac1 and Infotype 0315, Just check the docs
on this
Also a simple cats0002 can be used to supplement the recorded data

ESS - add a new column to Record Working Time table

Hello all,
My client would like to add a column to the Record Working Time table in ESS. They would like to add a column for Activity Name next to Activity Number. Can anyone tell me where this can be congured? Or would this be something I would need to hard-code in the ess~cat source code?
Thanks,
-Kevin

I have figured out the 2 step process needed for this, involving Modifiable and Influencing. So I am able to add new fields. The only issue I am running into now appears to be dependant on the field name.
I can add CATSD-VORNR
But I cant add CATSDB-LTXA1
I have tried a few variations and it seems i can add fields from CATSD but not from CATSDB?
Has anyone else seen this or know what steps must be taken to display CATSDB-LTXA1?
Thanks,
-Kevin

Record working times with CATS

Hello experts,
I am a beginner and I really need your help regarding this point. we want to start recording working times in our PPM system. In our system we have the integration of our ERP system with CATS. We can easily registrate in ERP working time on each personnel number, on a specific cost center for cProjects, on activity type special defined for each role. We also transfer this costs with resources to controlling - so, in ERP system everything works fine.
But, when I go to PPM system - I'm lost. all that I maintained on ERP system is available on Accounting Tab in Detail Data -which is good. But, I am not able to see the confirmed work on task level, tab "Dates and work" (see screenshot attached). Do I miss some customizing? or how should I proceed in order that this field "confirmed work" to be filled with the data registrated on ERP?
Thanks a lot!
Best regards,
Ruxandra P.

Hello Cassoké,
have you enabled CATS-integration with cProjects in customizing?
1) Customizing CATS-Integration for your project type in PPM
Checkbox "Time/Travel Expenses Rec. CATS/SRM/FIN". Setting up "Accounting Integration".
2) Customizing CATS-Integration from CATS-profile-customizing
For your CATS Data Entry Profil you have to select the Checkbox "From Project Assignment" to get your worklist populated from cProjects (task is released, person assigned to task, etc...)
3) Only entries with status '30' from CATSDB will be transferred to DPR_CONF_LI by the report "DPR_CATS_CPR_TRANSF"
4) And of course, don't forget to uncheck "Test" :-) when running "DPR_CATS_CPR_TRANSF".
regards,
Peter

Time Constraints on ESS - Record Working Time and Leave Request

Hi All,
I have configured Time Constraints and their reaction in V_T554Y.
When I record the appropriate combination of Attendances and Absences in back-end, I can see the reactions as specified... However, when I try to do the same in ESS - Recording Working Time and Leave Request, I do not see that Time Constraints taking effect on the front end.
Here is what I have done:
I have two attendance - P001 and P002. P001 is configured to be recorded on Leave Request where as P002 is configured to be recorded via Record Working Time (CATS) link.
I record the attendance P001 in Leave Request and also post that into infotypes. After this, I try to record P002 in the Record Working Time Screen and I still get errors (Errors are from: HRTIM00REC E/207 and LR E/335)
If I try to replicate the same in the back-end in IT20002, then there is no issues.
Can anyone help and let me know how we can implement the same Time constraints reactions on the front-end and the back-end.
Thanks a bunch
- Harshal

Note that Time constraints are not valid for Leave request and Working time ie in ESS
it only comes via PA30
in CATS too, we dont follow much HR related collisions checks these are taken into consideration during CAT6
and in leave request via Rptarqpost
so its not gonna work, Its intended and correct! go for a user exit cats0003 or check cac1 profile customisation

How to implement Manager Selfservice - Recording Working Time - BP

Hi!
I would like to have a stepby step approach to implement business package for recording working time.
What I need is the following information?
1. Pre-requisites
2. How to create the iview ?
3. What R3 configurations need?
you can email if you have good documentation on this to [email protected]
Thank you
Ramesh

The primary limitation you will encounter when trying to do high speed
digital I/O using your E-Series hardware is that the digital lines are
all software timed. This means that for each and every digital
read it is necessary for your software to issue a command to your
hardware, read a single point, then receive the response from the
board. This prevents you from performing digital operations at
very high speed. In general, I would say that 100 microseconds is
a very good response using software-timed digital I/O on a Windows
computer.
It is difficult to make a good recommendation without more detail about
what you are trying to do. You may need to consider switching to
a Real-Time operating system, or upgrading your DAQ hardware to a board
that will allow you to time your digital acquisitions on the board
itself. These devices, such as the m-Series DAQ or the PCI-653x
series, would allow you to use hardware triggers for your digital
acquisitions, change detection, and buffered data acquisitions to
reduce the software overhead involved in a rapid acquisition.

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.
Gareth

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.

Recording Working Time issue

Hello Guru's,
We are working on Time Management and for this we are using Working Time iView in Employee Self-Service role.
We are using Record Working Time and in this we record the working times and in the WBS Element cell there is option like F4 which opens up a popup and we can search for Projects (or WBS element) I want to make changes to that screen.
Please guide me where to do the changes for that?
I looked into the code but couldn't find.
Thanks in Advance for your time.
Regards,
Pramod

Hi Pramod,
In order to modify the standard webdynpro record working time application , you have to do below steps.
Import source code ( XSS Components ) in NWDI
Create a track.
From Developer studio , connect to DTR and check out the source code .
Create the sap.com/ess~cat (DC') project in NWDS.
Modify the standard SAP code as per your needs .
Refer JDI Cookbook for ESS.doc for above tasks.
Thanks
