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.

  • Time sheet line item should delete it

    Hi gurus,
    While entering in CAT2 working hours is wrongly entered and approved it and saved.  later on they found out it was wrong. Actually their are 4 line items, in one item should change the working hours. Is it possible? or we have to delete it.
    Now it showing gray, how can we change the figures.  if anybody faced the same problem please let me know the solutions
    thanks in advance
    jaya

    Hi
    Once you release the time sheet, you can not change it.  It will be in display mode.
    One way is to ask your Manager to reject it, and then it will again come back to you for doing changes.  At that time you can change.
    Please reward points.

    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.

  • ESS Time Sheet - Print button missing

    Hi all,
    Refering to the thread "ESS Record Working Time - Print button gone in latest release?" (), has anyone actually managed to solve this in an (for the customer) acceptable way?
    Even though SAP for some reason desided to take the print functionality away for the time sheets, the customer still wants to print... So, if anyone out there know a decent solution, please share your knowledge! I´m in desperate need of help.
    Thank you very much in advance!

    Hello Sera,
    you want to use the ess scenario time sheet for external contracters to record their times, right? And you do not want to transport the data to the HR system?
    Well first off all you should get yourself familar with CATS. Please study the following doku http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/64/400b2b470211d189720000e8322d00/frameset.htm
    Every data you record with the time sheets is saved to a table called catsdb. Only if you release+approve the time its get tranfered to special interface tables. A report later does distibute the data from the interface tables to the target destinations (HR, CO, MM, cProject etc). If you do not run the report for the distribution to HR it wont get tranfered.
    Again pls read the doku i have just provided. It will help you to understand how CATS does work.
    regards,

  • Ess Time Sheet and Attendance Web Dynpro - ABAP or JAVA

    We are determining the resources we will be needing for the HR - ESS Time Sheet and Attendance Module.   
    What is this module written in.  ABAP Web Dynpro or Java Web Dynpro.
    Many thanks, 
    Multiple replies welcome.
    Ken

    The ESSTimeSheet is now called Record Working Time & for now it is still in WebDynpro JAVA.. looking at how complex the whole application is, it will really take some beating to rewrite the same in WDA.

  • No Drop-Down in One Field of ESS Time Sheet

    Hi All,
              We are facing an issue with ESS, Activity type Dropdown values are coming in CAT2 but being not in ESS time sheet. Drop-down for all other values, eg network, receiving cost center etc., are displayed in ESS.
    Can you please suggest what could be the reason behind it.
    Cheers!!!
    Umang

    Hello Umang
    We are also faced similar kind of issue.
    For that Network,   activity type should be configured that should have enough permission for that PERN (means user).
    My suggesion it is issue with back configuration.
