Review approved time sheets in MSS

Hello to everybody
We are working on a ESS/MSS implementation (ECC6.00 with EhP4), including CATS regular scenarios.
In MSS the "Approve Time" scenario displays all Time sheets submitted by the employees.
After the approval, the manager is no more able to see the approved time sheets.
Is there any scenarios in MSS, where the manager can review the approved time sheets?
Where can he see the history of approved time sheets?
many thanks
katia

Hi Katia
I think the main ways to get this would be
1) Absence Days iview MSS
2) Attendance overview MSS
3) Team Calendar MSS
4) Reporting (ECC, CAT-TS or MSS)
5) Prior to approval in the UWL work item
6) Prior to approval captured in Review step of Timesheet approval iview
7) CA-TS transactions in ECC
Similiarly please also check in UWL after approval to see if work item and associated timesheet is visible
Best wishes
Stuart

  • Employee Search in MSS Approve Time Sheet Data

    Employee Search in MSS Approve Time Sheet Data (Net Weaver Portal 2004s)
    In MSS we need upper level managers to be able to approve time for employees who reside in lower level org units and are not the manager’s direct reports.  This is usually the case when the chief the employees do report to directly is absent.
    In the MSS Team view the links General Information, Compensation Information and Personnel Development have an Employee Search iView with a dropdown containing options for Direct Reports, Employees from Organizational Structure, Employees from Organizational Units and Employee Search.  We have been told that in previous versions of MSS that functionality existed in the Approve Time Sheet Data iView as well which would appear to solve our problem.
    Is this functionality available in Approve Time Sheet Data and if so how is it configured?  Or is there another way (other than manipulating the org structure) for managers to view non-direct reports and approve their time?

  • Approve time sheets UI5_HCM_TSA not loading

    Hi Experts,
    I am finding an issue with Fiori app for approving time sheets UI5_HCM_TSA . We are able to create working time requests correctly form Fiori.
    But from launch page if we click on Approve time sheet chip it is showing a blank screen like attachment.Same error when we launch from SICF also. Remaining apps like travel expense,leave approval etc are working fine. I have assigned needed roles for time sheet  from installation manual.
    Applied note  0001967726 by reading threads.But still issue remains as attached image.The approval is working fine from NWBC and back end.
    Is there any special config needed time sheet (CATS) approval from Fiori.

  • Approver time sheet - buyer purchase order

    Hi guru,
    I have the following problem.
    I'm the buyer of purchase order for external services. 
    The external employees compile the time sheet filling the field "sender purchase order" with my purchase order.
    When I use the transaction CATS_APPR_LITE, is there any way for extracting all the personnel number related to my purchase order, without using the field purchase order?
    Thanks

  • Wf   Approval Time sheet

    Hi experts,
    I want to use the standard wf WS400001001 , it generates two steps :
    1 Generate handle for approval : TS20000495  
    2 CATS Approval  TS40007901
    I didn't find the task TS20000495  ? 
    Did you know if SAP remplaced this task by another task ?
    Thanks
    Soufiene

    Hello,
    I searched this forum for that task (I hope you did too) and found:
    "Run this FM SWD_WFD_REPLICATE_FROM_9999 and specify the task which is missing. It should pull back from client 000"  as suggested by Imthiaz Ahmed
    Could you please let us know if this works.

  • Report to Verify Pending Aproval of Time sheet on CATS

    Hi Experts,
    Earlier Manager has faced some problem in approving Time sheet because of some missing authorizations, we have fixed that now we have to verify if he has any time sheets still pending for his approval.
    We use Cats Applicatiosn, all the employees has to fill the time sheet and it will be sent to managers appoval this is built on CATS application.
    Is there any report i can run in SAP to find out how many employees time sheet is pending for particular manager approval.
    Regards
    HR User

    Hi Bhargavi...
    One of the ways is to approve the time sheets viz MSS where in Manager will be able to see which all personnel time sheets are pending for approval.

  • Save & Release of Time Sheet in ESS.

    Hi all,
    The requirement is to provide two options after reviewing the time sheet in ESS, first one as per standard 'SAVE' which will save the time sheet (then employee will release later) and second one is customized one 'SAVE & RELEASE' which will save the timesheet as well as release it on a single instance.
    Tried with profile in TCATS Table (Release while Save), but it releases the time sheet on both options.
    Then created a custom RFC calling both SAVE and RELEASE RFCs subsequently.
    But that is also not working.
    So, if any of you came across similar issue. Please guide me on solving this.
    Thanks,
    Nathan.S

    Hi Siddhartha,
    First thanks a lot for your reply.
    But our requirement is to provide two buttons one for 'SAVE' and another for 'SAVE & RELEASE' in same page.
    Is it possible to achieve this?
    Thanks,
    Nathan.

  • MSS Time sheet appearing to reporting Manager and Unit Head

    Hello Experts,
    We are implementing MSS in project and we are facing a problem:
    - We have Org structure
    Unit Head (chief Position)
    ^
    Asst Manager (not a chief postion) reports to Unit Head
    ^
    Associates (not a chief postion) reports to Asst manager
    Now when employees goes and submits his time sheet it appears correctly to Asst Manager  in MSS Time sheet Approval by Line Manager.
    Now the problem is that Associate's time sheet is also appearing to Unit Head. Incase Unit head selects it and approve, it will get approved which is incorrect. The Associates time sheet should only appear to Asst Manager not to Unit Head.
    Please help us how we can resolve this problem.
    thanks

    As per your scenrio time sheet approval only for one level only. In workflow try to use logic A002 relation ship (Reports to). That means employees reporting manager.
    Discuss the same with your workflow consultant they will help you. Whoever is submit time sheet & it will go to employee line manager using A002 Relation ship.

  • Time Sheet Approval Collision

    hi,
    Im currently using standard java webdynpro fro Timesheet Approval in MSS.
    I have issue when manager is approving the Timehsheetim not getting the Collision error messages for the employee.
    Eg:
    Employees submitted as work for 01.12.2010 to 5.10 2010 in Timesheet.
    Same time Employee Submitted Leave for 02.12.2010 ,now Manager Approved and leave Got Posted.
    Now when Manager tries to approve the timesheet manager is supposed to receive collision messages it is not happening.
    However after timehsheet approval when it gets posted automatically we get collision error messages.
    Now we would like to have the collisions messages durng approval step.
    Is there any customizing we can achieve this.
    Regards,
    Nachy

    Hi Mauricio,
    Thanks for the useful information.
    This option woukld reduce the collsion error during Time Sheet Request Step.
    I would like have the Timesheet Validation during approval step also.
    The Reason is refer the previous example.
    Please suggest if you find some badi or some work around for this.
    Thanks For your inputs.
