Roles in ESS-MSS

Are structural authorizations (PD Profiles) required in SAP ECC system for ESS/MSS ? Or just regular roles thru PFCG transactions are enough in SAP ECC system for MSS Services and worksets ?
Thanks..

As far as i know, the standard roles should suffice . If you any requirements over an above then u can go for structural auth.( i felt the need only in Appraisals for struct authorisation )

ESS/MSS sso configure between java and abap instance

Dear Gurus,
I want to configure sso between java and abap instance for ESS/MSS. I couldnt find any guide for it, could you please help me gurus ?
Other question is, is there any specific role for ESS/MSS users in JAVA instance. I want to create users and assign this role to them.
Best Regards

Hi Kemal,
Hope you are doing good.
There should be a / in the ITS path before SAP.
Basically the entry that you have mentioned here should be accessible via browser as well. For eg in your case:
http://<its hist name>/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui should be accessible over browser.
I also think you have put in a extra space in "w ebgui". It should be "webgui".
If the connector settings are working, then we can be sure that system connection is fine. You do not need to configure ITS settings.
Also for SSO, refer the SAP note:1083421 and configure the SS0 settings again.
Please run the SSO2 wizard and then make the automatic connection to
the abap server. This will solve any inconsistencies on the server
due to manual interventions.
Most likely reason for the error is that certificates were loaded
manually rather than using SSO wizard.
More help:
<http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/EP/Troubleshooting+SSO+between+AS-ABAP+and+AS-JAVA>
The SSO enabling parameters should be set on the R/3 server.

Regards,
Rafi Shaik

inbox you meant UWL ie universal worklist
first note that SAP provides standard roles and you can copy it to z role and modify it accordingly and remove the roles
as per required/
For ESS, the standard composite role is SAP_EMPLOYEE_ERP. You can make a Z copy of this role and customize it per your needs.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/a4/93554056bd1f24e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
There is no standard role provided for MSS applications. You will need to build one as per your needs.
See SAP Note 844639 for more details.

ESS & MSS Role

Hi Experts
How to map ESS & MSS roles to ECC 6.0 Roles in EP.
Say for example in ECC 6.0 we have a user A and User B.
User A have some addtional attributes and User B does not have it
How to map this two users in EP.
Thanks
Daya.
Edited by: daya damu on May 27, 2008 8:27 PM

Hi Daya,
You will have to do the user mapping,
It can be done in two ways,
1. Go to user administration and once you enter user A, you will have an option of "User mapping".
2. When you are logged onto the portal, click, personalize option and choose "User Mapping".
User mapping is basically done when the portal users and ECC users are different.
Let me know if you need any further clarification on the same.
Cheers,

ESS/MSS EHP5 role customization issue

Hi,
We have implemented EHP5 roles on Enterprise Portal 7.0, other version details are: EHP6 and SP9.
Following issues are coming:
1. Our portal is having customized theme. However, the lpd_cust ESS/MSS roles created when rendered Portal is taking Standard blue theme, how can we get our custom theme when lpd_cust roles are launched on Portal.
2. The link text is getting vertically splitted in service map area. Eg. If we have "User Manual" as link text of a application created under lpd_cust folder ESS->User Manual, the text is getting splitted. How can we adjust size of this text?
Please check attachment for both issues.
Looking forward for help.
Regards,
Ashvini.

Hello Luke,
Yes, I mean talent management. The appraisal forms are in the flexible template in SAP Portal.
Thanks in advance for your help

Role of a Functional Consultant in ESS/MSS in a implementation project

Dear Guru's,
Please help me understand what is the role of a Functional Consultant in ESS/MSS in a implementation project. would be great if any documentation is available. i have building blocks and other stuff which i got from this network, but iam confused looking at them, most of them talk about technical stuff. please give me a functional insight of a Functional Consultant in ESS/MSS.
Thanks,
vinay

hi
the link above mentions the in general role of a functional consultant. But for Ess/Mss , First understand that the technical aspects are there as it would be for any other HCM module . Functional aspect comes into picture to show the functionality to the end user and also to modify the same as per business needs. Sap has given certain functionality which is common in case of few countries and common to the HR world in general. As a functional consultant your role would be to demonstrate and configure the needed functionality to the business.
A very simple example would be , talking about the who's who functionality. The output you see can be altered according to business needs by means of authoirization or customizing the columns which appear on the ouptut (e.g Change the columns as per business needs)
Hope this simple words make your doubt clear.

Hi Sera,
To assign Personnel number in R/3 to your portal user:
1) Your portal user is mapped to your R/3 user.
2) Login in R/3 system using your user and password,
3) Goto PA30 and enter pernr you want to assign to your user,
4) Create a record for infotype 105 and subtype 0001 and enter your user name there.
5) save the changes.
This assigned pernr to your user will be ESS / MSS user when you log in to portal.
Hope this helps !!

Automation of assignment of ESS & MSS roles

We are implementing ESS and MSS as part of our global HR implementation. What i am thinking of is to look for methods to automate the assignment of ESS role once the HR master record is created for an employee and MSS role once the chief relationship is established for the corresponding org unit.
Does anyone out in the field had done anything similar? If so,could you please share your experiences/lessons learned etc??
Thanks
Sarada Ganti

You have not mentioned the method of role assignment, ie direct/indirect so I assume you are using both.
You can automate the role provisioning without any problems for ess roles directly assigned to the ess user in SU01 - this is because the steps involved are easier to script.
Problems arise when automating the role provisioning for mss users that are indirectly assigned to their mss role through the position. The steps for administering indirect role assignments are not so straight forward and involve the running of RHRPROFL0 which needs to be maintained with key parameters to link the mss role to the position that the new manager is assigned to.
In the end we decided not to use indirect assignments because of this reason. The various scenarios was too difficult to script for the provisioning tool Tivoli (ITIM)
Hope this helps.

Charmaine

What is the role of a HR functional consultant in the ESS/MSS configuration

Hi Guys,
If someone can suggest me what is the role of a HR functional person in the ESS/MSS or EP configuration and what needs to be done to achieve that..
Thanks,
~RJ

I think, HR Functional consultant role should mandatory for ESS/MSS. ESS/MSS are user interface technologies but behind the scene. It is all about HR FC. In order to learn ESS/MSS you should start base NetWeaver Architecture & Iviews concept.
You will find it more easy since you knw back-end.
Thanks,

Roles for ESS and MSS Enhancement Package 4 (EHp4)

Good afternoon.
I have the following doub with the role assignment for ESS .
I know that exist the following roles for ESS :
SAP_ESSUSER: Single role that comprises all non-country-specific fucntions. Only relevant for the olders ESS functionality, including all ITS component, such as PZ02(Address), PZ13(Personnel Data), PZ03(Bank Details).
SAP_ESSUSER_ERP05: Single role that comprises all non-country-specific fucntions. Relevant for the ERP2005 platform, Enhancement Package 1 and 2.
SAP_ESSUSER_ERP13: Composite role that comprises all non-country-specific functions. Relevant for the ERP2005 platform, Enhancement Package 3.
SAP_ESSUSER_ERP05_xx: Single role that comprises all non-country-specific fucntions. A separate role exist for each country version(xx = Country ID). The role corresponding composite role is SAP_ESSUSER_ERP05. Relevant for the ERP2005 platform, Enhancement Package 1 and 2.
The Question is:
I am working with Enhancement Package 4 EhP4, What is the role that I have that use????

Hi! The specific ESS Role for EHP4 is called SAP_ESSUSER_ERP_14.
Due to an error, the Role was not delivered in SAP ECC 604, but it will be available in the Support Package 05 for EHP4. You can hope to implement the SP or go for manual corrections from Note [1373177|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1373177].
1229232 and 1129412 notes are relevant for EHP3 only.
Refered to MSS you're right.
