Today defaulted as the Period selection

When displaying the Iview:com.sap.pct.hcm.rpt_objectselection.ivu it
currently defaults to "Today" as the Period Selection. Customer need this
defaulted to "Current Year".
We are using this iview as a Date and Personnel Number selection to run
a standard SAP (EE Absence Calendar report RPTABS50. Currently there
is no way to change the detaulted period selection of"Today".

Hi,
You should create a variant for the transaction code and save this variant in the reporting framework configuration.
Then when you run the Report, it will default to the option you wish to have.
See table T77MWBFCD, here you define a report and there is the optional "Variant" for the report to run with.

Process open items: how to set defaults for the additional selections

Hi FI experts,
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to set defaults for the additional selections in the processing of open items.
I am using transaction F-04 (or F-06 or F-07) to post with clearing.
When processing the open items I can use additional selection parameters. In my case I need to use the document type. I would like to save this selection as a default but this doesn't seem to be possible.
1. it is not possible to save a variant for the processing of open items
2. I can not create a variant transaction (with trx. SHD0) for F-0x since this is only possible for dialog transactions
Do you see another way to store defaults for the additional selections in open item processing?
Thanks a lot.
Dimitri

Hi,
When you create a transaction variant from FB05, then also you will not able to default the value for additional selections variable. Hence SHD0 is not going to help.
As said above, either you can change the additional selection screen parameters, but here again you can't default the value. You can only reduce the number of entries on the screen.
Else you can create a custom transaction code by copying the standard. Even SAP recommends to create custom codes from standard tcode for clearing purposes depending on requirements.
Please check this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/EN/41/37b8e7455b11d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
In the above link, in navigation choose clearing -- Specifications for processing open items
If it is a custom transaction then you can default document number.

OTL:Generate Timecard Tasks based on the Period selected on the Period LOV

Hi,
I want to generate the Tasks' LOV Based on what is selected on the Period LOV. It must only list Tasks that are valid/active for the select Period LOV.
I want to integrate the "validation/condition" in the script to generate the PA_ONLINE_TASKS_V view.
Best regards,
Ernest

Ernest,
OTL renders the LOV through its own rendering mechanism and is a wrapper over OAF LOV component. Hence you won't be able to treat it like a normal LOV as it gets rendered at runtime based on layout ldt file.
But you sure can have the LOV based on a previously selected item inside Timecard matrix. Considering your case, the Period list is not inside the matrix, hence your LOV cann't refer to that. But instead if you are willing to use a package choice list, you can get access to the Start date of the selected time period through bind parameter TIMECARD_BIND_START_DATE. Hence my suggestion would be to use a package choice list and use your VO in the function used for choice list.
Instead if you want to use LOV only, make a hidden package choice list where you default it to the Timecard start date through a custom function attached to it and so you
have a field with start date inside the matrix.
Let me know, how it goes.

To use two presentation variables based on the period selection in OBIEE

Dear All,
I have period prompt in my report, based on the period prompt selection in my report I need to get the start and end dates of the period and apply in the report filter.
For e.g. Period Name selected in the prompt is "2010 - Q1" (For this Period, Period Start Date = 01/01/2010 and Period End Date is 30/03/2010, which is not going to be displayed in the prompts).
How can I get the start and end dates of the period into my report filter. I tried using the presentation variable for the period name, but unable to resolve the requirement.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
Create a report A which will give you the period start date and end date and filter it using the period prompt.
Then filter the main report using the report A start date and end date, using Filter -> Advanced ->Filter based on results of another request .
Add the report A in separate section on the dashboard along with main report and hide report A section.
Thanks,
Vino

Using a parmater field for a Date field using the "in the period" selection

Users would like to fetch records using the "in the period" record selection. They would like to be prompted on the period to run the report. ie
MonthToDate
YearToDate
Last7Days
Last4WeeksToSun
LastFullWeek
LastFullMonth
AllDatesToToday
etc...
I've created a parameter with a dropdown list of values. However the parmeter field I created isn't available as a value in the date field in the "Select Record Expert" function.
Is there a work around?

Ron,
Unfortunately you still have a little bit more work to do... but not much.
You need to add a formula to your selection criteria. Something along these lines:
IF {?DateRange} = "MonthToDate" THEN {TableName.DateField} in MonthToDate ELSE
IF {?DateRange} = "YearToDate" THEN {TableName.DateField} in YearToDate ELSE
IF {?DateRange} = "Last7Days" THEN {TableName.DateField} in Last7Days ELSE
IF {?DateRange} = "Last4WeeksToSun" THEN {TableName.DateField} in Last4WeeksToSun ELSE
IF {?DateRange} = "LastFullWeek" THEN {TableName.DateField} in LastFullWeek ELSE
IF {?DateRange} = "LastFullMonth" THEN {TableName.DateField} in LastFullMonth ELSE
IF {?DateRange} = "AllDatesToToday" THEN {TableName.DateField} in AllDatesToToday
On the plus side, you'll be able to go back into your parameter and add some spaces to list options... which will look better for the end users.

The Browser is defaulting to the Persona Selection as opposed to normal use, how do I fix?

The Firefox Browser selection is defaulting to Firefox Personas and I cannot search the net with Firefox. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still defaults to Personas Selection Page.

It is not clear what your problem is.
Is it the home page that is going to the Personas site? If that is the problem, you can set the home page back to the default, or to any other site, for details see [[how to set the home page]].
Do you have a Persona installed and want to remove it? If that is the case see [[using themes with Firefox]] for details of how to switch to the default theme, or any other theme.
If your problem is something else please give more details.

Record not appearing in custom infotype without selecting the period.

Hi All,
I have created a HR Custom Infotype for Medical Examination. Whenever i create a record for a particular employee and again i click on the Display button for the same employee, a message is diplayed "No data stored for Medical Examination details in the selected period". And when i select the ALL radio-button in the period selection area,only then the record is displayed. Why is it so that manually i need to select the ALL radiobutton to display the record? It is not so for other infotypes. Is there any solution for this, i mean can we change some settings to resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Arpita Raizada.

In PA20/30 we have period from and to dates on screen. If any date is entered on these screens then data from infotype is displayed based on these dates.
If your record doesn't overlap/falls with these entered dates then system displays the message. Changes the period dates accordingly and system will display the records valid as of entered date.

Ramnivas

Time Statement - Date Period Selection

Hi Experts,
In ESS portal->Time Statement link, we are having this situation.
When i change the "Date From" or "Date To", and clicked button "Display", \
the "Date From" will always how "Start date of current month",
and the "End Date" will show the "Current date".
Say,
Default date, as below
Date From | Date To
"01-Jan-2011" | "17-Jan-2011"
and i changed Date From to "04-Jan-2011", and clicked button "Display".
The "Date From" and "Date To" will be defaulted back to the original.
I am not sure if this is the normal behavior?
Thanks.

Hi,
We tried thisTESD, but, we see the Period selection.
I thought we should see a field with date selection for TESD?
Is there anything that we need to do after changing the feature?

There is no need to dsiable any module.. you can create a new Report Category like I mentioned above & attach it to your Zprogram. PL do the following.
1. In SE80/SE38 Get into Change mode for your Program.
2. Go to-->Attributes
3. Click on HR Report Category
4. Click on the Create Report Category
The list of all the existing Report Categories are displayed. You can either pick one that suits your requirement or copy one & in the details screen select the 'No Entry ' radiobutton for Payroll Area/Period/Year.

the program without plant calendar to create the period selections"
Can any one explain me what i exactly need to do?

F.01 (RFBILA00) not taking the period specified on selection screen for com

Hi Experts,
Whenever we execute this report, it always takes the output from the start of the year. It does not take into account the u201Cfromu201D and u201CTou201D period which we specify on the selection screen.
How to modify this report? Not able to find any relevant OSS note for it.
Cheers,
Nand

Hi,
In this report, go to tab u201CSpecial Evaluationu201D and give the u201CBalance Sheet Typeu201D as 2 Flow of funds analysis
The system by default takes the type as 1 Standard financial statement, which means that an accumulated balance sheet is created, that is, the balance is calculated from the balance carried forward plus the periods 01 to the upper limit of the reporting and comparison periods you have specified.
u201CBalance Sheet Typeu201D as 2 Flow of funds analysis means that a flow of funds analysis is created, that is, the balance is calculated from the reporting and comparison periods you specified.

Change the default option for a select box

Hi,
I have a select box, with the options built from a Spry Dataset
<select name="AvatarSelect" id="AvatarSelect" spry:region="myAvatars">
<option spry:repeat="myAvatars">{A_NAME}</option>
</select>
I wish to change the default selected option (which is usually the first row returned from the dataset) based on a value for A_NAME that I know from another spry dataset.
Tried using Spry.$$('#AvatarSelect') to get to the the array of select options but to no avail.
How can I cycle through the options and then set the selected on, based on a match for A_NAME?
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil
I think this is the way
<select name="AvatarSelect" id="AvatarSelect" spry:region="myAvatarsLookup myAvatarsValue">
<option spry:repeat="myAvatarsLookup" spry:test="'{myAvatarsValue::A_NAME}'=='{myAvatarsLookup::id}'" value="{myAvatarsLookup::id}" selected="selected">{A_NAME}</option>
<option spry:repeat="myAvatarsLookup" spry:test="'{myAvatarsValue::A_NAME}'!='{myAvatarsLookup::id}'" value="{myAvatarsLookup::id}">{A_NAME}</option>
</select>
Cheers
