Time Constraint Classes.

Hi All,
Pls let me know the concepts for Time Constraints classes.
Regards
Rajesh

A time constraint indicates whether more than one infotype record may be
available at one time. The following time constraint indicators are
permissible:
     -   1: An infotype record must be available at all times. This
         record may have no time gaps. You may not delete the record last
         stored on the database because all records of this infotype
         would otherwise be deleted.
     -   2: Only one record may be available at one time, but time gaps
         are permitted.
     -   3: Any number of records may be valid at one time, and time gaps
         are permitted.
Other possible time constraint indicators are as follows:
     -   A: Only one record may ever exist for this infotype. It is valid
         from 01/01/1800 to 12/31/9999. Splitting is not permissible.
         View V_T582B Infotypes Which are Created Automically controls
         whether the system automatically creates the infotype record for
         an employee hiring or an applicant data entry action.
         Infotypes with time constraint A may not be deleted.
     -   B: Only one record may ever exist for this infotype. It is valid
         from 01/01/1800 to 12/31/9999. Splitting is not permissible.
         Infotypes with time constraint B may be deleted.
     -   T: The time constraint varies depending on the subtype.
     -   Z: Refers to time management infotypes. The time constraint for
         these infotypes depends on the time constraint class defined in
         view V_T554S_I Absence: General Control. Collision checks are
         defined in view V_T554Y Time Constraint Reaction.

Time Constraint Class

What is the number (0 to 7) stands for time constraint class in absence for the screen number 2001. I have a leave type CL (causual leave). What time constraint class shall i assign to it.

Chinmay

for ur info alreadt raghu has given the answer any way check this tooo
A: Only one record may ever exist for the infotype (from 01/01/1800 - to 31/12/9999). Infotypes with time constraint A may not be deleted.
B: Only one record may ever exist for the infotype (from 01/01/1800 - to 31/12/9999). Infotypes with time constraint B may be deleted.
T: Time constraint varies depending on subtype.
Z : Refers to time management infotypes.Time constraint for these ITs depend on time constraint class in table V_T554S_I. Collision checks : V_T554Y
Apart from 1, 2, 3 there are some other types of Time Constraints: A, B, T, Z.
The Infotypes with TC type A must exist, must have only one record in its lifetime, and these ITs cannot be deleted.
Example: IT0003 (Payroll Status)
The Infotypes with TC type B must have only one record in its lifetime.
Example: IT0031 (Reference Personnel numbers)
The Infotypes with TC type T will have subtypes, and the TC is based on the subtype.
Example: IT0009 (Bank Details)
The Time Mnagegement Infotypes will have TC type Z .
Example: IT2001 (Absences)
rule that determines whether collisions in time data are allowed, and if so, specifies how the system reacts to such collisions.
Time contraints comprise the following:
Time constraint classes that determine which collisions in time data records are allowed
Time constraint table that contains the time-based collisions allowed in the time data records
Time constraint indicator that displays whether a new data record that collides with an existing time data record can be transferred to the system or whether the transfer is prohibited
When you update an infotype, old data is not lost but archived for historical evaluation. The system records a specific period of validity for each infotype, This enables the system to store more than one infotype record at the same time, even if their validity periods overlap. This means that the time relationships between infotype records must be defined. The concept of time constraints enables you to do this.
HR master data uses the following three time constraints:
Time Constraint 1
For the entire time that the employee works at the enterprise, exactly one valid infotype record must exist. The validity periods of the individual records must not overlap. If a new record is created, the system automatically uses the start date of the new record as the delimitation date of the old record. Gaps are only allowed between the employeeu2019s entry date and the start date of the first record.
Time constraint 1 must be used for all of the infotypes containing information that must be available at all times. This is particularly true of personal and organizational assignment data.
If a record is delimited because of time constraint 1, the system displays an appropriate message.
Time Constraint 2
No more than one valid record can exist at any one time. Records with constraint 2 must not overlap. Their existence is not obligatory. If a new record is created, the system automatically delimits the previous record, if one exists.
If a record is delimited because of time constraint 2, the system displays an appropriate message.
Time Constraint 3
Any number of valid records can exist at any one time. The individual records do not conflict with each other.
Time Constraints:
When an info type is updated, the old data is not lost. Instead, it remains in the system so that you can perform historical evaluations. Each info type is stored with a specific validity period. This means that the system can contain more than one record of the same info type at the sometime, even if their validity periods coincide.
If you enter and save new information in an info type, the system checks whether the record already exists for this info type. If this is the case, the system reacts based on rules or TIME CONSTRAINTS set up for that particular info type or subtype.
Time Constraint 1: This is mandatory information that must be uniquely available, gaps are not allowed
Time Constraint 2: This is optional information that, if available, must be unique, gaps allowed.
Time Constraint 3: This is optional information that, if available, can exist more than once.

Time constraint classes and screen number for absence type

Hi all,
What should be the Time constraint classes and screen number for absence type.
The different absence types are annual leave, sick leave , study leave , personal leave, maternity leave , juryduty leave nad leave without pay etc
Kindly help.
Regards,

The time constaint class depends on the client requirement.
eg.if they want that a error needs to be generated while overlapping absences or warning message is required.
Time contraints comprise the following:
Time constraint classes that determine which collisions in time data records are allowed
Time constraint table that contains the time-based collisions allowed in the time data records
Time constraint indicator that displays whether a new data record that collides with an existing time data record can be transferred to the system or whether the transfer is prohibited
For screen number you will have to see if the is quota based deduction or just an absence. Here is the documentation of screen number from SAP
In the standard system, the following numbers are allocated to the screens:
1. 2000 - General absence
This screen is used for all absences which do not require special processing (such as paid leave of absence for getting married).
2. 2001 - Quota deduction
This screen is used for entering data on leave or time in lieu of overtime.
3. 2002 - Work incapacity
Use this screen for all absence types where continued pay should be taken into account automatically by the system.
4. Special screens have been developed for the following absence types:
2003 - maternity protection, parental leave
2004 - military and non-military service
2005 - work incapacity (Netherlands)
Please go through the documentation of the configuration.

Time constraint class for Time infotype

Hi all,
Where is the table to create a new time constraint class? I know how to link the reaction rules, but not how to create a new digit?

Entry screen for Time constraint class

Hi All,
What should be the "Entry screen and Time constraint class" in Determine Entry screen number for Time constraint class.
Please do help me.
Regards
Jagadeesh Reddy

Hai..
It depends on the requirement...
The following screens are currently available:
Absences: - 2000 Absences (general)   - 2001 Quota deduction
- Attendances:   - 2050 Quota deduction   - 2051 No quota deduction
And abt Time constraint ..
A: The old record is delimited.
E: It is not possible to create a new record.
W: It is possible to create a new record, but the old record
     remains unchanged.
N: As for indicator W, but no display.
Time Constraint Class is basically how u want the system to treat when u try to create a new record during a period where a record already exists..

Hi Priti,
What are time constraint
1 no gaps and records are unique records are must eg IT 0008
2 Records may or may not be there if records are there they are unique eg IT 0019
3 Records may or may not be there gaps may be there Eg IT

DCIF - Time constraint 1

Hi all
The time constraint for the relationship that I am trying to update is set to 1.
When the relationship start data is earlier than the object start date the DCIF changes the start date of the relationship to the start date of the object and updates the infotype with an information message stating 'Start date corrected to the minimum date allowed'.
But if the relationship start date is later than the object start date then it gives an error message stating 'The validity of the record must match the validity of the object'.
At the same time I can update the same relationship with the same start date as the error record(i.e the start date later than the object start date) from transaction PP01 and it allows me to save the record.
Is there a particular reason why DCIF is meant to behave different to the standard transaction? has anyone else encountered this scenario?
Thanks

Hi Priti,
What are time constraint
1 no gaps and records are unique records are must eg IT 0008
2 Records may or may not be there if records are there they are unique eg IT 0019
3 Records may or may not be there gaps may be there Eg IT

IT0009 with Time Constraint 1

Hi Experts,
We have defined IT0009 with a subtype whcih has Time Constraint value as 1. Ideally we shouldn't be able to delete the IT0009 with Time Constraint 1. But still we are able to delete all records for It0009. Could anybody tell why this is happening?
Regards
Niharika

Hi,
Time constraint Class for infotype 0009 is T that means it will depend upon the subtype
If you change this time constraint class to one in table V_512W_D you will not be able to delete the recods for 0009.

IT2001 error, no time constraint reachion for infotype 2001 with tm const00

Dear Seriors,
When I try to add any absence, it show the below given error message (red colour), but if I hit the enter button it allows me to mark absence.
no time constraint reachion for infotype 2001 with time constraint class 001
What might be the reason?
Regards
ET

The time constraint class is used to check for collisions between Time Management infotypes (2001 to 2012). It allows you to specify different regulations for checking for collisions between individual subtypes.
The views Time Constraint Reaction to Time Management Infotypes (V_554Y_B) and Global Time Constraint Reaction (V_T554Y) contain rules for the collision check.
Please explore on this.

Calendar time constraints

I started another thread about this but have had no replies. I know this means no one has a fix, but it would help a lot to know the answer to this question:
Is anyone currently syncing calendars - iCal or Entourage - to an external device, particularly a Nokia phone, where the iSync time constraints - "Don't sync events older than:..." and "Don't sync events after:... - are actually working?
I've established that I'm not the only person for whom they no longer work, but if I can find someone for whom they do actually work, then I'll keep debugging my system, instead of looking for a workaround and hoping it's fixed in the next update.
Thanks in advance,

A time constraint indicates whether more than one infotype record may be available at one time. The following time constraint indicators are permissible:
1 = An infotype record must be available at all times. This record may have notime gaps. You may not delete the record last stored on the database because all records of this infotype would otherwise be deleted.
2 = Only one record may be available at one time, but time gaps are permitted.
3 = Any number of records may be valid at one time, and time gaps are permitted.
Other possible time constraint indicators are as follows:
A = Only one record may ever exist for this infotype. It is valid from 01/01/1800 to 12/31/9999. Splitting is not permissible.
View V_T582B Infotypes Which are Created Automically controls whether the system automatically creates the infotype record for an employee hiring or an applicant data entry action.
Infotypes with time constraintA may not be deleted.
B = Only one record may ever exist for this infotype. It is valid from 01/01/1800 to 12/31/9999. Splitting is not permissible.
Infotypes with time constraint B may be deleted.
T = The time constraint varies depending on the subtype.
Z: Refers to time management infotypes. The time constraint for these infotypes depends on the time constraint class defined in view V_T554S_I Absence: General Control. Collision checks are defined in view V_T554Y TimeConstraint Reaction.

Hi,
Well, are you trying to do a batch input on infotype 0000? If yes you need to check that the proposed values respects the time constraint, meaning no gap, no overlaps and no inversions. Also fields SUBTY, OBJPS, SPRPS and SEQNR must remain initial when processing IT0000...

Time Constraint for Boundary Events

Hi experts.
I am pretty new to BPM (NetWeaver Developer Studio 7.1 SP04 BPM SP05) and I am just making a test process to try to get the time constraint concept right. So far I have three tasks in my process, very much like a textbook example. In my first task I have an input field in which you're supposed to type in your name, which is then saved to the context and triggers the second task when completed. That second task is nothing but a screen displaying "You successfully generated a second task, (with the name you entered in the first task here)."
That works fine so far. Then there's the third task, which is linked to a boundary event on the second event with a start deadline which is critical exception. Here's the idea... You complete the first task (name input), then you fail to start the second task within a certain amount of time defined by an expression, so the process should go to the third task because of the deadline. By the way, it works fine when using a default time, so I must be doing something right so far, the problem is when trying to dynamically change the time with the expression.
What I tried was to define a context attribute type time and date (I tried both) and assigning a time (current time plus whatever amount of minutes) to that attribute via Java coding at the time you click on the button which completes the task, then use that context element in the expression, but that didn't work. I also tried to make that context attribute an integer and set it to whatever amount of minutes I want to use for the deadline, then in the expression get the current time and add that afore mentioned integer to its minutes. That didn't work either.
Please help, I have seriously done some research, and no success yet.

Time Constraints and Boundary Events in BPM

Hi all,
I have done the following:
In the Task window, Time Constraints tab
- Checked "Define a default completion deadline" with the offset as 3 minutes.
- Checked the "Raise critical exception when deadline is reached" checkbox.
In the boundary events for the activity, I have added "CompletionDeadlineIsCriticalException".
From the boundary event, I have linked to to another activity that belongs to another user (User B).
When i am testing the BPM, the task goes into a Suspended status after 3 minutes. However User B did not received a new item in the UWL.
In the NWA, "Manage Process: Process Instances", i can see that Task is escalated by null and the status is suspended.
Does anyone has any advice over here?
Thank you.

Hi,
i have checked the BPEM-CORE version as instructed.
It says 1000.7.11.2.0.20090321233900
Does that means I need to update to the latest patch?
Please also check the version of your NWDI build plug-in BPEM-BUILDT in the respective NWDI track. This is used to build Process Composer DCs in your NWDI.
I am in the Development Infrastructure Perspective in NWDS
How do i check the version number for BPEM-BUILDT in the NWDI?
Thank you.

Any report to identify Time Constraint issues?

Hello,
Is there a report that I can run to get the employees and Infotype records with time constraint issues? So until last week, we had not turned on the PC-UI switch in T77S0 table. So the way it worked was, if in history there were 2 records with time gaps for Infotype with time constraint = 1, then it still allowed us to create new records. Now with the switch turned on, it gives an error. Once the historic records are corrected, it allows us to proceed. This is freaking out a lot of data specialists, and we were wondering if we can proactively identify the employees with these historic data inconsistencies and be able to correct them. Please let me know.
Thanks,
Nakul
