User exits in CAT2

Hello,
In short: In CAT2, is there an exit to intervene on the default lines that the system reads from HR master data?
My situation is the following:
When a user fills in his timesheet in CAT2 and hits ENTER key, the system will match up that line with the user's timesheet defaults in his HR master data.
If the user has two default lines, the system may not pick the one expected because, for example, the purchase order in the default line is closed.
The objective is to pick the line anyways and issue an error ("PO is closed").
Any ideas?
I hope I was clear...

User exit in CAT2

Hi All,
I am working on CATS. In CAT2 transaction, data is accessed from infotypes based on reporting hierarchy.
But I want to display data in CAT2 transaction from custom table. I have changed personnel selection program RPLFST01 but it is not showing me all employees from custom table. Some employees are rejected due to authorizations given to supervisors.
Can anyone please help me in this issue? I have checked all user exits. But all are trigerring in data entry screen. I want to change data in initial screen of CAT2 transaction.
Appreciate your early help...
Thanks & Regards,
Madhura

CATS user-exit

Hello,
We have added a custom field (say cust01) to the CAT2 transaction to enter working time and it works fine. However, when absences are entered, we would like to have this cust01 values at the staging table. But based on certain situation we do not want it to be transferred to the time infotype.
Is there any user-exit to analyze the data in staging tables like PTEX... and decide what needs to be transferred to the infotypes.
Thanks in advance for all your information.

A user exit field in CJ20n to display in CAT2.

Hi;
Let me define my problem. I have a field in CJ20n which is created by user exit in the activity level. The name of the field is "Effort to complete ".
I want to show the value of this field in the CAT2 transaction in the "TOTAL" field or in a better way in an additional field (column) in the upper pane.
Is it technically possible ?
Kind Regards.

Activate Enhancement CATS0005 (SMOD) in a customer project (CMOD)
- Add your field to CI_CATSDB, add field to customer screen disabling input and perform minimum development required in EXIT_SAPLCATS_005, EXIT_SAPLCATS_008 and global data include ZXCATTOP (as you wont actually manage this field here)
Activate Enhancement CATS0002 in the same project or another

User Exit needed at PBO for transaction code CAT2

Hi all,
I'm enhancing CAT2 screen for the client. I've created a new field for CAT2 -> Data Entry Section and have made that field visible via config. I would like to implement a search help for my new field and would like to manipulate the search help via abap code. I understand that there's a whole list of CAT2's user exit that can be used. However, i need an user exit that is triggered before the Data Entry Section screen appear which is the PBO. I'm not allowed to modify the SAP Standard program and therefore i'm using the user exit.
I've tried SAP Enhancement CATS0005 but it is not triggering my ABAP Code before it enters the Data Entry Section screen. Kindly assist to advice is there's any particular User Exit that i can use for my purposes or another workaround.
Regards,
Loo

I don't think there is one, but you may either implement an implicit enhancement option (routine GET_NEXT_NUMBER in program SAPLSTRD), or make a custom program which creates transport requests (it is then easier to get the number).

User Exit Validation for CAT2 using CATS0003

Hi all,
I am using the user exit CATS0003 to validate the receiver cost center, receiver fund, receiver order and the receiver functional area.That is if any one of this fields are initial it will give an error message.
But when I try to change an existing record and try to change the order number (say if its blank - some records are with with blank internal order nos since we just implemented this validation , and I try to input a value in the time sheet ) and when I do check for errors it is still giving out the error message which it is supposed to give when all the fields are initial.When I debug I dont see my order number value which I gave on the time sheet
entry.the filed is just blank/initial so its giving my error message.
I am wondering is there any other user exit should we use to get the changed value to the user exit? If so please let me know.

Looks like the error checks are being made before the values are transferred from screen to internal table and work area.
If you get the blank value for the field, also try to use function module DYNP_VALUES_READ to read values from screen field inside the user exit. If it comes back with value, validate against that value.

User exit in CATS_APPR_LITE

When transaction CATS_APPR_LITE is executed, the selection is done on the whole population.
We want however to restrict the used population: when executing CATS_APPR_LITE, a Time Approver should only see the employees for whom he is allowed to approve time.
Our implementation proposal is to use a user exit in CATS_APPR_LITE that calls a custom z-table (maintained in a custom transaction) containing for every employee (PERNR) who are his time approvers (one time approver and two back-ups) for a certain period in time.
Our questions are:
- which user exit is there available in CATS_APPR_LITE to call this custom z-table?
- do you suggest a different method?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Vincent Mahy

Hi Vincent
There seems to no user exits to the transaction mentioned. But there is a BADI CATS_REPORTING which is getting triggered while executing the tcode mentioned. Below are some of the methods which could be implemented, please sit with a ABAPer and check which one best suits your requirement,
APPROVE_CATS_CLASSIC                     Automatic Approval of a CAT2 Data Record?: Yes/No

CATS User exit Question

Hi Guys,
I have two custom fields in my CATS time sheet called Zclock1 and Zclock2. For a record that already exists I need to pre-populate these fields when I open the time sheet for an employee using CAT2, Which user-exit should I use?
I tried CAT0002 but this one will trigger only at the time of creating a new record or modifying an existing record.
Thanks,
Roy

hi Avisek Bhardwaj,
i want to change the data when i use CAT7 to transfer data to CO, before CO document created i must delete some dummy WBS element in a certain user-exit, so i need to find this user-exit to process the data,
i've checked the enhancement CATS0002, but it isn't what i want,
i've found one user exit PCA00001--EXIT_SAPLPC02_001(EC-PCA: Changes to Document when Transferring CO Actual Data)
i do delete dummy wbs element in this user exit but when transferring is finished, i find that the dummy wbs element still appears in the co document. it looks like that user exit doesn't work.
i don't know why,

User Exit CATS0002 Validation

Hi Gurus,
I need to validate a field in cat2 transaction for a field . if the user enters a value other 1 then i need to validate that field providing an warning message "Number of days should not exceed 1 for a given date".
and then user should input the proper value (i.e, 1).
I incorporated this validation in User Exit CATS0002 CATS: Supplement recorded data.
in which i need did the validation for enrich_table-catsquantity as mentioned below.
IF enrich_table-catsquantity > 1.
      MESSAGE w667(lr) WITH 'No.of days'
                            'should not'
                            'exceed 1 for'
                            'a given date'.
       ENDIF.
1. If this condition becomes true the message will be triggred. then after executing this message staement will it alow the user to enter proper value ?
2. any other method of validating ?
Please help regarding this.
Thanks
ramu

Hi Kiran,
This sounds very interesting to me and I would like to learn more about the use case.
But first I need more information about your system landscape.
Do you run the use case on NW 70 EhP 1 or 2?
I strongly recommend NW 7.0 EhP 2 and I am convinced you get it done easily with BRFplus.
Calling BRFplus rules can be achieved by RFC or WebService call or locally in ABAP. Maybe take a look at a package called SFDT_DEMO_OBJECTS.
BR,
Carsten

ESS CATS user exit not triggered

I am making some validations on the time sheet using enhancement cats0006, but that user exit is not triggered in the portal, in ESS.
I have my project activated through tr. CMOD, the user exit is triggered in R/3 using transaction CAT2.
What could be the reason ?

User exit for PA03

Hi,
I understand that the system automatically check the payroll correction indicator but I was wondering if we can implement a user exit that check the "Earliest master data change since last payroll run" in IT0003 (P0003-RRDAT).

Hi Vivek,
Thanks for the quick answer. I fully understand what you said but i have another problem. Let me explain.
After a input throught CAT2, the system trigger a PDC recalculation for time, the check for Payroll correction and the earlier master data change since last payroll run. We didn't execute time evaluation (PT60) before Releasing the payroll. Just after release, we execute the payroll, so the check for payroll correction and the earlier master data change disappear. it's the right behavior for sure. But by doing so, the system never trigger the time change via PDC recalculation because we did't run time evaluation. I know that it's more a process thing. then we put the payroll in correction and run the time evaluation. The system trigger the earlier master data change but doesn't trigger the payroll correction check (which is only trigger thru infotype). In that case, when we exit the payroll the system doesn't check that employee.
I would like to use a exit that check the earlier master data change before exiting payroll for that kind of process problem.
regards,
Sebastien
