Hi Dharani,
Have a look at my weblog,
For your 1st Question:
"How to do the modification in certain ESS/MSS standard iviews? using your local machine NWDS?" -
1.After you configured your track for ESS/MSS business package in NWDI try importing the track in NWDI by configuring NWDI server in NWDS, goto Windowsàpreferences-Java Development Infrastructure-Development Configuration
and specify the URL where you have configured your NWDI
2. create a project for the views which you want to modify.
3. Checkout and create a new activity for the DC
4. Make the changes as per your requirement
5. Checkin the activty once you are done with the changes
6.Activate and release
These are all the steps involved in customization of any business package.
Mail me back if you have any doubts.
Hope this helps,
Regards,

ESS/MSS webdynpro customization...........

Hi ,
I want to customize MSS WebDynpro iview in NW Developer Studio can anybody guide me for this ? How to perform this task ? If any Doc Available ?
Can i use Visual Composer also?
Thanks,
Smita

hi,
yes, FPM is the framework which all self service applications follow. Hence all the self service applications have same patterns. The thread I referred you in first reply, contains a gudd xplanation of FPM. Plus you can find the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/b4/139525380149a49c8402e22700e4ba/frameset.htm">documentation</a> of FPM helpful.
Its a framework which self service applications follow. hence no need to separately implement it.
Is ESS/MSS deployed and running in your portal?
But still you need to setup JDI for making any code changes to ESS/MSS applications.

Integration of webdynpro abap custom iview into standard ESS/MSS portal

Hello all,
Could anybody please throw light on how to integrate custom iview which is developed in Webdynpro ABAP into standard tab in MSS (Webdynpro java)
For example.I want to add few custom fields(which are mapped to infotype 0041) into general information link of MSS.these fields will be created in webdynpro abap.
or.
I want to create a new link under general information which pops up as a custom iview (which is create in webdynpro abap) .
please let me know how can i meet the above requirements.
Thanks in advance.

I am not really sure about your requirement. With my limited understanding of that , i think that you have few possibilities.
1. You can let the ess/mss application communicate with WDA application via a Poral event.
2. You can enhance the ESS WDJ component and use RFC destination to get the data from info type and build your own view in WDJ.

ESS / MSS package compatibility

Dear Folks,
I have a question regarding ESS/MSS business package compatibility.
We are currently on R/3 4.7 so I loaded 'BPESS46C504_0-20000613' business package for ESS on our portals.
Now I want to load MSS business package; I am not sure which MSS version should be loaded. Should I use MSS 50.4 or MSS 60.1 (both the packages support R/3 4.7). Will there be any compatibility issues?
Please guide me.
Thanks & Regards,
Deepak

Hi Deepak,
MSS60.1 is not Web Dynpro based. Web Dynpro based business packages cannt be run against R/3 Enterprise. 60.1 is not based on Web Dynpro. It is based on Java iViews. Please go to
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/contentportfolio
for more information.
60.2 is based on Web Dynpro and this one is not fully developed(and you cannt use it for R/3 4.7), you can use 60.1 in your case.
ESS and MSS both are seperate so no compatibility issues.
Thanks

Error in configuring standard ESS business package

Hello Experts,
We are on Portal 7.0 and ECC 6.0.
We have deployed BP_ERP5ESS 1.0 SP 15 SCA file in portal.
When we tried configuring the business package we could not find the standard JCo connections which comes along after installation.
We tried creating it manually. But when we tried executing the WDJ applications it throws the below error:
javax.naming.NamingException: Failed in WD JNDI lookup. javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: No child found in WebDynproContext with name pcui_gpxssutils (Root exception is com.sapportals.portal.prt.runtime.PortalRuntimeException: Failed in WD JNDI lookup. javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: No child found in WebDynproContext with name pcui_gpxssutils)

Hi Rajendra & Arora,
Thanks for your reply.
We have deployed all three SCA files:
SAPPCUIGP15_0-20001215.SCA
SAPESS15_1-20000512.SCA
BP_ERP05 1.0 SP 18.SCA
It would be great if you could also explain what these individual components are meant for.

Ess/mss package level

Hi All,
I have read the wiki - http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viepage.action?pageId=31476
I have a question on the levels
I can see that the support packages available on SAP Market place are on different levels as below
PCUI_GP 603 - available SP 6.0
ESS 603 - available SP 7.0
MSS 600 (603 not available) - available SP 18.0
Should I keep it all on 6? or can i have PCUI_GP on 6, ESS on 7, and MSS on 18? Please advise.
Thanks,

Hi,
I hope this matrix clarifies the issue
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/HOWTOGETRIDOFSPSTACKMISMATCHISSUES
Please keep PCUIGP and ESS onthe same release. Indeed for MSS there's no EHP3 version (603) but you can follow the suggestion on the page I mentioned above. You can use MSS 600 SP18.
Both SAPPCUIGP07_0-20002356.SCA and SAPESS07_0-20002355.SCA are available on the service marketplace:
http://service.sap.com/patches -- Support Packages and Patches - Entry by Application Group -- SAP Application Components -- SAP ERP -- SAP ERP ENHANCE PACKAGE -- EHP3 FOR SAP ERP 6.0 -- Entry by Component -- SAP XSS (Self Services).

Wdjava ess/mss code incompatibility while deploying in portal upgradation

Hi Everybody,
As part of our requirement,I have customized a standard ESS/MSS package and deployed in the current portal version and its working fine..Now when we are going for up gradation and deploying the code in the higher version of portal ,there is a incompatibility in the code.
So can any body help me in this issue.like what needs to done ,so that my customized code also works fine in the higher version of portal during upgradation
Regards
RRay

This happens because your NWDS development environment JRE version mismatch the portal JRE version.
Check which version you have in portal.
Compile your code in NWDS with same version of JRE.
In NWDS refer

ESS/MSS Customizations

HI ESS/MSS Gurus,
During our discussions with the client regarding the inherent features of the standard ESS/MSS functionalities, several points were raised, namely:
1. The cumbersome nature of data/request entry - basically they just want all the request filing to occur in one screen. No need to skip screens to review and validate the request
2. No record id to document the request -> they want a means for the user and manager to monitor and track requests using a standardized request numbering system. I believe that the standard solution for ESS/MSS does not have this one in place
3. Ability to extract reports of histories of requests raised (for the employee) and requests reviewed (for the manager)
In our opinion, these items will require heavy customization on both the portal and back end side. We are basically considering a custom table which will store these information and depending on the status of the requests, a request column will be updated with the corresponding values. The request approvals, notifications, and postings are also to be done via ABAP
In designing this solution, we came across some stumbling blocks, specifically on updating the personal and team calendars for leave requests and the employee's schedule for the clock in/out corrections. Hence, we want to check if any of you guys have had experience with customizing the ESS/MSS interfaces (specifically the leave and clock in/out application and approval), and if so, can you help us identify which tables are being updated/read when a leave or clock in/out is created and approved. We already checked the FMs attached to the portal application and the they call several methods and functions; i.e. is there a table/set of tables that you can point us to instead?
Your immediate response is highly appreciated.
Regards,

1. The cumbersome nature of data/request entry - basically they just want all the request filing to occur in one screen. No need to skip screens to review and validate the request
-- Depending on your version less than or equal to ehp5,.. this is true in versions less then ehp5. then ahain until ehp4 any forms that need implementation will need some element of development work so in your particular case the element of develpment could be a little higher to make them all use a single entry screen that gets submitted.
2. No record id to document the request -> they want a means for the user and manager to monitor and track requests using a standardized request numbering system. I believe that the standard solution for ESS/MSS does not have this one in place
-- for any form or process that has workflow attached there is an automatic workflow-id assigned by the system and I believe you can report on these inthe back end... standard workflow fuctionality... why dont you explore this option with your workflo consultant?
3. Ability to extract reports of histories of requests raised (for the employee) and requests reviewed (for the manager)
