Restricting certain plans from ESS during open enrollment

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement to restrict plans from ESS during open enrollment. Please let us know the best possible solution to acheive the same.
We have found that Proxy class CL_BENEFITS_AREAPAGE which is assigned to the service can be copied and enhacned to filter the plans, is this the right approach?

I had that exact same delima, but one of our consultants pointed us to the transaction: HRBEN00ADJRSN
This is a mass load of adjustment reasons. You just need to feed the program the total time allowed for adjustments and things like start of records date and end of records date. Because of the dates and the potential for different plans to have different dates, we actually have two open enrollment adjustment reasons. We have one for Flexible spending where I give the 1/1 begin date and a 12/31 end date since it is only effective for the year in question. Then we have our main open enrollment for all other plans where the begin date is 1/1 of the new year and 12/31/9999 for the endda. I then run the HRBEN00ADJRSN twice for the population: once for the flex enrollment, and then again for the main open enrollment adjustment reason.

How do I restrict certain plans from appearing during Open Enrollment?

We have 15 benefit plans for which all employees are eligible. We do not want to change the groupings or settings for our Open Enrollment period but would like to restrict the plans that appear for Open Enrollment so that only 12 out of the 15 plans are displayed and available to employees in ESS. Can this be done? I know I can restrict which plans are available when using IT0378 Adjustment Reasons but cannot find a way to restrict the list for Open Enrollment. Thanks for any suggestions.

No Plans selected during Open Enrollment in SAP ESS

Hi Gurus,
We finally configured the Open Enrollment link in the portal (ECC 5.0) but now when we click on the link what appears is this
"No plan selections could be prepared for the specified enrollment reason. Contact your Benefits Administrator for assistance."
I have configured the benefits adjustment reason and put in all the available plans in the reason for us to test. Any suggestions as to why we arent able to see any plans?
Thanks
Kavita

This is pretty old but still for the people who will be visiting to this thread just like I did.
We had a same issue... I have checked Web Dynpro java application for benefits enrollment and it shows this message when it has ZERO plans to show in open enrollment.
Then I did debugging in ECC Function modules and found why it is not sending any benefit plans even though user has them in Info type 168 (insurance plans).
It could be any reason for plans not to populate, our reason was user have Vol Spouse Life insurance and Voluntary Child Life Insurance but they dont have Spouse and/or Child records in Info type 21.
So, this error will show up when there are ZERO plans / records to show in portal. Find your issue why by debugging.

Change BEGDA when enrolling in adjustment reason plans from ESS/HRBEN0001

Hi Experts, ,
Please provide your inputs/let me know if any BADI or User Exit exists, for acheiving following requirtement in ESS -
Following a life event change or at the time of hire, eligible employees log on to ESS to adjust available benefits plans. The requiremnet is to change the effective dates (E.g. if enrolling in health plan - P0167-BEGDA) of the plans during enrollment. The idea is to have a custom table created which would hold Adjustment reason, Benefit plan and effective date calculation rule (1st day of next month, last day of month etc.. ) and derive effective date from this Ztable when employee enrolls in any plan from ESS/HRBEN001.
Any inputs on acheiving this requirement would be of great help.

Thanks for taking ur time and relplying to this question...
I have seen the class and the function module being called in this class .. BEGDA is an importing parameter and hence any change done to it will not be captured .. and moreover I guess this will not trigger from HRBEN0001 ..
any comments ?

Query to extract new enrollment amount during open enrollment

Hi,
Can someone share a query to extract the new enrollment amount employee chooses during a life event enrollment. I need to do some validations based on the new amount employee chooses during self service enrollment.
Thank you for your help.

Is it possible to restrict certain users from printing from Adobe Reader?

Is it possible to restrict certain users from printing from Adobe Reader?

First of all, with Reader you can't change any security settings.
If you have Acrobat, then you could place a password on changing the document (which includes printing), and then give it to only some users.

ESS: Benefits: OPEN ENROLMENT NOT VISIBLE in ESS

Hi Gurus,
This is regarding a SAP HR implementation for US.
Open Enrollment Service is giving a dump with error
u201CNo Correct Adjustment Reason Specifiedu201D.
Following has been checked, still unable to view it in ESS.
u2022     Employees are configured for running Open Enrollment for employees.
u2022     Employees are assigned to appropriate PA and PSA. Country grouping for both the employees is USA: 10.
u2022     Maintained appropriate data in Infotype 0171(General Benefits Information). Correct benefit program grouping is done for both employees ie maintained first and second program grouping for both employees.
u2022     Maintained Benefit Adjustment Reasons for both the employee i.e. Infotype 0378(Adjustment Reason Data).
u2022     Maintained Open Enrollment Offer for employees between 09.13.2008 and 10.13.2008. (MM/DD/YYYY).
u2022     Program HRBEN001 is running correctly in backend. Both employees are able to choose different benefit plans during the open enrollment period.
u2022     User is having SAP_ALL authorizations.
u2022     Resources and Services are correctly defined and linked in the backend.
u2022     HR_BEN_ESS_RFC_ENRO_REASONS is a SAP defined function module to fetch benefit data from Benefit module and post it to ESS internal tables. Testing it in the background using transaction se37 gives correct results in the backend. It is displaying Open Enrollment as one of the Benefit Reasons.
Kindly help with any pointers at the earliest.

ESS Benefits open enrollment - Issue

Hi,
When we click on the benefits open enrollment link, we do not want some of the plans to be displayed to the ess user. Is there any way to control it ( SPRO or BAdI ).
Env - EP 7.0, ECC6.0
Thanks,
Ravi

I posed the same question to an ESS consultant who responded with the following:
"The plans presented in benefits enrollment (PZ14) and Participation Overview (PZ07) are list output from ABAP. You can go into the program and select or exclude some of them based on certain criteria. I've seen customers extend the Plan infotype to add a flag field to make it configurable to show, not show a given plan."
Since specific instructions weren't given, I wouldn't consider the issue answered.
However, I can provide the following work around:
Due to the fact that different populations have different open enrollment period timeframes, and all populations have been configured under one benefit area...we decided to create an "Open Enrollment Adjustment Reason" for each group instead. Thus, the Adjustment Reason permissions will only display the plans we want the employee to see via ESS. Prior to the open enrollment period for the population, we will run the Mass Adjustment Reason report to create IT378 for all relevant employees. The OE offer will appear as another Adjustment Reason under the Enrollment service in ESS.

ESS - Benefits - Open enrollment (Concurrent employment is enabled)

We are trying to set up ESS open enrollment. After adding/editing/changing plans --> review enrollment --> Save.
On saving, getting an error "rfc_error_system_failure" on the ESS screen.
Checked with ST22 for the error details. The name of runtime error is "uncaught exception" and the exception is "CX_HRPA_VIOLATED_PRECONDITION".
Based on a Similar thread on the forums --> Link : [Re: CX_HRPA_VIOLATED_PRECONDITION using HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION to insert rec; and Sap note # 493984 , the error seems to be related with concurrent empoyment.
Analysis:
1. If CE is disabled, there is no error - open enrollment works fine both in R/3 (HRBEN0001) and via ESS
2. If CE is enabled," open enrollment" in R/3 using HRBEN0001 - there is no error.
3. Error occurs only when "open enrollment" is accessed through ESS, when CE is enabled.
Would like to know if some one can share their experience on using ESS open enrollment when CE is switched on?
Version details: ECC 6.0 (support pack level 22 for SAP-HR and EA-HR), EP 7.0 , ESS BP 1.0

Restricting certain tables from being viewed

CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Hello, I need assistance with restricting some tables within Crystal.I have an SQL database with multiple tables, some of which we do not want to be seen through Crystal reports as they contain sensitive information. Is there a way in which to exclude a table or two from the crystal database view???? Thanking you in advance.

Post Author: V361
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Try this, file, options, database, in the data explorer there is a table name like, owner like box. Try excluding them there... I pulled this from the help section
Table name LIKE
This box allows you to enter the SQL LIKE function to specify the kinds of table names you want to appear in the Database Expert. You can use the underscore character (_) and the percent sign character (%) as wildcards with this function. The underscore character specifies any single character, and while the percent sign signifies any character string. For example, DAV_ matches DAVE only, while DAV% matches both DAVE and DAVID. Table name Like C% would display only those tables that have a table name beginning with the letter C.
Owner LIKE
This box works exactly like the Table name Like box except that the LIKE function here is used to select the Owner (or Creator or Alias) of the table, not the table name itself. For example, Owner Like C% would display only those tables that have an owner beginning with the letter C.

ESS- Open Enrollment quick link - no plan selections

I've enabled the Open Enrollment Quick link in Benefits and Payment. When I execute it, I get the error message

R/3 and ITS both display the enrollment plan choices without an adjustment reason of OPEN. Why can't the Portal ESS find them?

ESS Open Enrollment Service

Hello,
I am on EP7.0 NW04s ECC6.0 and want to modify the ESS Service Open Enrollment ...and I am looking for the ESS Webdynpro Application service corresponding to it.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi Antony,
Thanks for replying.
I have verified in SM30. I do not see any value in the input field for "URL of PCD". are there any other check points?
Following are the details of the for the resources, service keys and service groups.
Resource Key: EMPLOYEE_GENERICENROLLMENT_SERVICE05.
Directory Path: sap.com/ess~ben
Object Name: BenefitsApplication
URL Parameter: TRACKING_ID=GENERIC&INITIATOR_ROLE=HRASRD&EVENT=
<b>Assignments</b>
Servive Key: EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_GENERIC_ENROLLMENT05.
Service Group: EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_GENERIC_ENROLLMENT
Resource Key: EMPLOYEE_GENERICENROLLMENT_SERVICE
Directory Path: sap.com/ess~ben
Object Name: BenefitsApplication
URL Parameter: EVENT=
<b>Assignments</b>
Service Key: EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_GENERIC_ENROLLMENT
Service Group: EMPLOYEE_BENEFITPAY_GENERIC_ENROLLMENT
I also have another issue came up during trials.
I copied sub Areas, services, service group, resources, and assigned them accordingly to areas and group pages. and made changes respectively in the PCD location (application parameters:   sap.xss.menuargrp etc..).
I removed the Sub Area from the Area Page. Still I am seeing some links like "Open Enrollement", "Adjustment Reason Enrollments" etc. which just refer the above Resource Keys. Where are the default values coming from? Like mentioned in one of the threads, are they coming from Client "000".
Thanks!

Renaming a plan for open enrollment - plan name doesn't seem to date track

Hi,
Has anyone ever renamed a plan. here is our situation.
for 2012 we currently have 3 medical plans to choose from, to keep it simple... plan A, plan B, Plan C. The approach we thought would be the easiest would be rename plan A to be Plan X for then 2013 open enrollment. to see Plan X for the open enrollment period (nov 1 - nov 30) we changed the plan name on Oct 31. In addition we would end the eligibility for the other two plans on 31-dec-2012.
so on Jan 1st Plan X is eligible, Plan B and Plan C are not. for the 2013 open enrollment Plan X (formally plan A) is the only plan available to select. which is what we want and open enrollment looks ok.
The issue we see is with any new hire or other life events that allows enrollment for 2012. they see plan x, plan b, and plan c as option. We still need to show Plan A, plan B, and plan C as options for the remainder of 2012.
I tried to rename the plan effective 01-jan-2013, but then the open enrollment still shows the same 2012 (plan A) during the enrollment period.
i expected the open enrollment to use the plan name that for the date tracked time 01-jan-2014, even though the enrollment period for 2013 is nov1 - nov30...
thought any one?

Open Enrollment - No plans listed

When I select Open Enrollment from ESS Portal (ERP 2004) I receive the message "No plan selections could be prepared for the specified enrollment reason. Contact your Benefits Administrator for assistance."
The old ITS version of ESS is still working and I see the plans without issue. Using transaction HRBEN0001 in ECC 5.0 works as well.
Why am I not seeing plans in the portal version of ESS? The web dynpro is running, but no plans. Is there additional configuration I need to do for the new ESS to enable this and if so where?
