Variable Value Empty during Employee Termination Workflow

Hello Friends,
I got a requirement where I need to send an email to the concerned department with Last Day in Office and Last Pay Date.
During the termination of employee table PA0041 will be filled with dates(dat01-12) and
date types(dar01-12).
I am fetching data from table pa0041 based on the personal number but i am getting 00/00/0000 value in the email even though there is value in the table. I am getting values from other tables and displayed properly in the content of email except from this table.
CALL FUNCTION 'HR_READ_INFOTYPE'
  EXPORTING
    PERNR                 = OBJECT-KEY-NUMBER
    INFTY                 = '0041'
  IMPORTING
    SUBRC                 = SUBRC
  TABLES
    INFTY_TAB             = P0041
  EXCEPTIONS
    INFTY_NOT_FOUND       = 1
    OTHERS                = 2            .
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
        WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
SORT P0041 DESCENDING BY BEGDA.
READ TABLE P0041 INDEX 1.
DO 12 TIMES VARYING DATAR_TAB FROM P0041-DAR01 NEXT P0041-DAR02
            VARYING DATE_TAB  FROM P0041-DAT01 NEXT P0041-DAT02.
IF DATAR_TAB = 'U7'.
V_ENDDA = DATE_TAB.
EXIT.
ELSEIF DATE_TAB IS INITIAL.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
How do i get the value during termination. the object is bus1065.
Thanks & Regards,
Nagaraj

Trigger the event of that BOR COMPANYLEFT by using the FM SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT*
1. Here 2 cases are possible one is if you trigger from PA30 Txn
2. Delete emtry directly from the table.
2.
When ever a entry is deleted from the table the a message will displayed saying that the employee deleted so what i personally feel is try to trigger the workflow which you have designed to send the mail, when ever this message is triggerd by using the t-code SWUY
1.
Find a enhancement spot and trigger the event SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT aspecify the start event in the workflow, so when evenr the employee is deleted then this event is triggered and  then the workflow will be triggered

  • Employee termination workflow ECC5.0

    Hi Everybody,
    We have a requirement to do a workflow for employee termination approval in HR. We are on ECC5.0. Manager will have to propose the termination, an approver will have to approve and then HR Admin will review the info and then the database gets updated.
    Has anybody implemented this kind of employee termination workflow in ECC5.0? I would like to know if there is any standard template/ business object etc..or any other useful information.
    Early response will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Thanks for your inputs.
    We are on ECC5.0 and we are not implementing ESS/MSS.
    I am wondering for implementing this workflow if we need to develop the screens, business objects, workflow every thing custon from scratch or do we have any thing standard where we can start from.
    Appreciate your help.

  • BOR Attribute empty during workflow trigger

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a problem in workflow where the IMAGE attribute of my zBUS2081 is not being read (or might be empty) during workflow trigger. This is the scenario:
    1. I delegated zbus2081 to BUS2081 and added attribute of type BOR - IMAGE.
    2. My workflow is being triggered when a LIV INvoice is parked.
    3. In my workflow, at the beginning I am transferring ZBUS2081.IMAGE to a wf container IMAGE_CONT (type BOR - IMAGE)
    4. My workflow triggers, then I check the log. It shows that IMAGE_CONT was assigned with ' ' value even it passed through the container operation step.
    5. What's weird, is when I retrigger the workflow, it is now able to assign the value of ZBUS2081.IMAGE to IMAGE_CONT.
    What could be the problem? I don't think there is a problem in my workflow. Seems that ZBUS2081.IMAGE has no value during trigger, but there is a valid data for IMAGE before the wf triggers.
    Thanks,
    Eo

    Hi Eo,
      I guess it may be because of the program logic inside business object Zbus2081 on attritube IMAGE.
      Can you open the program of attribute image and check whether you put the condition that maybe skip command swc_set_element container?
      In background, workflow will re-calculate attribute of the object. If swc_set_element container is missing, value will be blank.

  • Retain variable values across web templates during a web session

    Hi all,
    How can we let web template get variable values from another template's variable values so as to keep the same entry values as previous report run?
    For example 0vendor has a variable (for single, mandory) used in all  vendor related web templates. "vendor1" was entered for the second template.
    I tried to use "SET/GET PARAMETER" in variable user exit. It works in BI with RSRT,  but it doesn't work with Bex or Web template. Looks like web session is not sync with the ABAP stack.
    How about using cookie? How to create/reset cookie in variable user exit? Can we get variable values from web server memory or user session data?
    Please share your thought !
    Thanks for helping!
    David

    Hi Arun,
    All the web templates are randomly run by user, there are no set of templates run after one template. Any templates can run after any other web template.
    Basically we link  web templates with portal menu items. any report can be run by any sequence. The thing the new report need to take the previous selection values from common variables.

  • Problem to transfer Variable value to Dashboard A to Dashboard B

    Hi,buddies:
         I have a scenario that I have to jump from Total Dashboard(we call it A) to Detail Dashboard(we call it B),I work with Xcelsius directly connect to BW through SAP NetWeaver BW connection ,I can transfer Variable values to B through URL with command like this:
         http://hqbd6.sinopec.com:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?DASHBOARD=R2JN_DASHTESTB
    &BI_COMMAND_1-BI_COMMAND_TYPE=SET_VARIABLES_STATE
    &BI_COMMAND_1-VARIABLE_VALUES-VARIABLE_VALUE_1-VARIABLE=G1CALMONTH_DZ_MIS
    &BI_COMMAND_1-VARIABLE_VALUES-VARIABLE_VALUE_1-VARIABLE_TYPE=VARIABLE_INPUT_STRING
    &BI_COMMAND_1-VARIABLE_VALUES-VARIABLE_VALUE_1-VARIABLE_TYPE-VARIABLE_INPUT_STRING=2011.07
    But at this condition,The variables of Dashboard B are not bound to any cell because they will be set at run time with values passed in the URL.
    My question is can I get the Variable value from the URL in the Xcelsius Designer and put it into a specified cell and link this cell with the query,so that even jump to Dashboard B I can still change the variable values.
    Best Regards
    Martin Xie
    Edited by: Martin Xie Ai Hua on Mar 9, 2012 7:48 AM

    Let me explain the issue in detail.
    In Query Designer, both the year and  month variables are defined by user exit function to read current year and month and can be modified  during the query runtime.
    In WAD, Query1 is  used  to be a table with a table interface to hyperlink a chart which is defined by Query2 with the same variable value of Query1.
    During the runtime of template, if I change the variable value of Query1 , I want the variable of Query2 to be changed automatically with the same new value.
    So in the table interface of Query1 , I write the ABAP code in "SE24" and related source code to the variable is following:
    concatenate
    'function fire_urlJGSP_Col(filter) {'
    Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
    'chart_url="' url '" + "&CMD=LDOC'
    '&TEMPLATE_ID=GCCHART_9' "WEB ID of the work book
    '&PAGEID=Graphics'       "Name of the view
    '&CMD=PROCESS_VARIABLES&SUBCMD=VAR_SUBMIT&VAR_NAME=Z2MYEAR&VAR_VALUE_EXT=" + filter'
    Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
    'openWindow(chart_url,"chart_window","dependent=yes","600",'
    '"450","true")'
    Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
    into l_coding.
    In this way , I can only transfer the year variable value from Query1 to Query2 and not two variables .
    So , how  shall I do to transer the two variable value in the same?

  • Retaining Variable Value for Scenario Restart

    I have a slave-package where i use many variables for JDBC connection/url/login/passwd and Target File Path - all have been defined as type HISTORIZE
    My packages are as follows
    (1) There are many odiSqlUnload steps in the slave-package which uses the connection information & file path from the variables which have been declared in it.
    (2) I just have declare variable steps in the slave-package, and have created a master-package which calls this slave-package's scenario using the command[i] "odiStartScen -GLOBAL.var_name=<var_value>"
    so that all variables get their values from the master-package's call with variable values sent thru it
    (3) Now, the problem occurs when I have to re-start my slave-package's scenario. Say for eg, the first step in my slave-package works fine, but errors out on the next step;
    But when I re-start it for the next step, ODI doesn't seem to pick up values from the variables even though they are of type HISTORIZE, and I get an error with empty values for JDBC, URL & file path which I had specified as variables.
    Why is it that the variables are not able to retain their values.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    finally I get it. I have to use #varname instead of :varname, otherwise it won't get error but just cannot get value. and I find out this #varname cannot be defined anywhere, otherwise the value will get lost also.

  • How to put whitespace in launchd.conf variable values

    Working on a Mavericks, I'm trying to set global environment variable available in the terminal, spotlight and any GUI application.
    To do so, I want to use launchd.conf to set my environment variables. I have been able to set some variables, until I wanted to put a whitespace in the variable values. Here is the content of my launchd.conf:
    setenv MYVAR2 "my var"
    setenv MYVAR3 "myvar"
    setenv MYVAR4 "my\ var"
    setenv MYVAR5 my var
    setenv MYVAR6 myvar
    setenv MYVAR7 my\ var
    Then, here i what I tried in my terminal:
    >grep -E "^setenv" /etc/launchd.conf | xargs -t -L 1 launchctl
    launchctl setenv MYVAR2 my var
    launchctl setenv MYVAR3 myvar
    launchctl setenv MYVAR4 my\ var
    launchctl setenv MYVAR5 my var
    launchctl usage: setenv <key> <value>
    launchctl setenv MYVAR6 myvar
    launchctl setenv MYVAR7 my var
    >env | grep MYVAR
    MYVAR_IN_LAUNCHD_NOSPACE6=myvar
    MYVAR_IN_LAUNCHD_NOSPACE3="myvar"
    As you can see, all the variable containing a whitespace (even escaped with a backslash) are purely ignored. And I need to have several variables with whitespace inside.
    Instead of the "grep" command, I rebooted my mac, but the result is the same.
    Is there any workaround or solution  for this issue ?
    Rémi

    So you run this command in a shell:
    launchctl setenv MYVAR2 "my var"
    Then this:
    launchctl getenv MYVAR2
    and you get nothing? You relaunch Terminal and run
    echo $MYVAR2
    and get nothing?

  • Web report - Variable values while switching between views.

    Hi Gurus,
    We have a query which has a few variables that are getting populated with default values during query execution[customer exits].
    We have added this query to the web.Now there is a date variable  which gets populated with the current date value by default.Suppose the users don't vant to run the report for the current date, they are able to change the date in the variable window and execute. But once the report is run, and we try to choose a different vieew for the report, the report automatically gets refreshed with the selected view, but for the default current date value (because of the customer exit).Shouldn't the selected view be getting refreshed with the date values that the user had entered while executing the report?
    Also when navigating between the different views, shouldn't a variable window pop up? Is there any setting to have the variable window pop up when navigating between the different views of a web report?
    Would appreciate a quick response.
    Thanks a Lot
    Arvind

    hello,
    we need to go to Query properties -> interaction tab-> remove reuse variables to populate the variable screen everytime or "Save and reuse variable values" to supress variable window
    or
    Problem could be due to any personalisation.try this:
    One the query is executed, click on the button which says change variable values.
    In the variable pop-up screen which comes up click on the personalization button
    In the new screen which comes up click on reset personalization button
    Enter new variable values and execute the query.

  • How Can i retain the Shared Variable Values after PC rebooting

    Hi all,
    I am facing a paculiar problem with Shared Variables. I have an application in which shared variables are used for data communication.
    One of the application requirement is to retain the variable values eventhough PC is rebooted or started after crashing. 
    As per the my understanding, the variable values will retain eventhough the PC is rebooted. But here i can observe a paculiar problem like some library variables are retaing the values while some others not. I enabled logging for all the variables.
    I tried many ways. like logging enabled, logging disabled, changing variable names, changing process names etc... But i am not getting a consistent behaviour.
    I hope some you can help me in solving this issue.. "How Can i retain the Shared Variable Values after PC rebooting"
    Thanks and Regards,
    Mir

    Hi Blackperl,
    Thanks for the post and I hope your well. 
    What do you mean by not getting consistent behaviour.. this will all depend on excatly when the crash happens i.e. before the write or after. 
    Surely a better method would be to log the data to a file during the reboot...
    I beleived the value read back
    will be the default value for the shared variable's data type.
    The LabVIEW DSC 8.0 module adds more functionality to the shared variable, including initial values and alarms.
    If you enable an initial value on a shared variable, when the variable
    engine comes back on-line it will default to this value. Setting a bad
    status alarm for the shared variable is also a good way of handling
    this type of event. Additionally, if you are using a LabVIEW Real-Time
    target such as Compact RIO or Compact FieldPoint, it is appropriate to
    consider hosting the shared variable engine on the real-time target.
    These devices have watch-dog capabilities and are typically the
    hardware controlling the critical pieces of an application. Most
    Windows or PC-based targets do not have these fail-safes.
    I guess, if you could explain to me again that would be great. From my point of view, if I have a cRIO and a Windows PC. If the windows PC crashes, the cRIO will still update its shared variables. Then once the PC has started up its own shared variable engine, and the bindings are loaded, it will once again continue to update its copies of the variables.
    Please let me know what you think,
    Kind Regards,
    James.

  • Using variable values form parametrized URL in Customer Exit in i_step = 1

    Hello BW experts,
    I call a parametrized URL to a Web Template that has a Query with the variable VAR1:
    http://XXX?...&CMD=LDOC&template_id=TEMP1&VAR_NAME_1=VAR1&VAR_VALUE_EXT_1=2006
    Then I try to access the value of VAR1 in i_step = 1 in the Customer Exit for BEx variables in order to determine the value for a customer exit variable VAR2:
    WHEN 'VAR2'.
        IF i_step = 1.
          READ TABLE i_t_var_range INTO var_range
            WITH KEY vnam = 'VAR1'.
          fl_var_range-sign = 'I'.
          fl_var_range-opt = 'EQ'.
          fl_var_range-low = *some operation with var_range
          APPEND fl_var_range TO e_t_range.
        ENDIF.
    The problem is that VAR1 contains either the default values (if the variable is set to have default variables) or is empty (if there are no default variables defined). It does not retrieve the value in the URL in the Customer Exit, but displays it correctly in the variable screen.
    Is there any way I can acces the URL parameter in the Customer Exit?
    Thanks for any answers in advance.
    Michael

    Gili,
    thanks for your answer. The problem was, though, that the first value determines the behavior of the variable screen by setting the value of a customer exit variable.
    My goal was to have two variable screens. In the first a date is chosen and in the second a node of a time-dependant hierarchy is chosen. If one enters the date in the same screen as the hierarchy, the valid hierarchy for the date is not displayed.
    I solved the problem now in following way:
    <b>1. Saving the value in SAP Memory as a parameter.</b> The parameter has to be defined in SE80. A Dummy Web Template with a query on the same Infoprovider with just the two InfoObjects (Year/Month) displays a variable screen for Month/Year. In addition there is a Dummy Customer Exit variable that is needed in order to pass the variable values (month/year) into SAP Memory. Using JavaScript in the Dummy WebTemplate the second Web Template with the actual query is called without displaying anything else than the variable screen.
    WHEN 'DUMMY_CUSTOMEREXIT_VAR'.
        data: w_date like sy-datum
        IF i_step = 2.
          READ TABLE i_t_var_range INTO var_range
            WITH KEY vnam = 'VAR1'.
        do your peration
        i.e.  w_date(4)+2 = var_range-low.
                 w_date(6)+2 = var_range-high.
          SET PARAMETER ID 'ZBW_PARA1' FIELD w_date.
        ENDIF.
    <b>2. Retrieving the value from SAP Memory</b> Before displaying the variable screen, the chosen date is retrieved from SAP Memory and used to set the date for a customer exit variable for the hierarchy validity date.
    WHEN 'VAR2'.
        IF i_step = 1.
          GET PARAMETER ID 'ZBW_PARA1' FIELD w_date.
        do some operation with     
          APPEND fl_var_range TO e_t_range.
        ENDIF.
    It is quite a comlex construct, but it works....

  • Variable values being reset to # / 00.0000

    Hi
    I have a problem with our web template, although the same thing happens on the SAP default template.
    Run a template, and you are shown the variable selection screen. For this particular query, there are 2 variables, namely SITE and FISCAL PERIOD/YEAR.
    I leave the values blank, and run the report.
    The report comes back with data. There is only data for site B01 and period 005.2008, but as I left the selection screen values empty, it tried to return all data.
    If I look at the report information, I see that there are no dynamic filters applied, as expected based on the values I used on the selection screen.
    If I now try to broadcast the report via email, the report refreshes, and shows No Data Available. If I now look at the report information, I see that there are 2 dynamic filters applied. Site has been set to #, and period has been set to 00.0000. There is no data for those values, hence No Data Available is shown.
    If I run the report and enter B01 / 005.2008 in my variable selection screen, I get the same report data coming back, and I am able to broadcast via email.
    The problem seems to be that if the values are left blank, when I choose to broadcast they are then reset to # (or 00.0000 for period), and I don't know why this is.
    Please let me know if there is a decent solution out there?
    We are on NW2004s SP16.
    Cheers,
    Andrew

    Thanks for the prompt reply, but your answer has little to do with my question.
    I am running a report, and trying to email it. There is nothing about setting up a schedule. The error comes in as soon as I try to email the report.
    The error is that if I leave the variables empty in the variable selection screen, they are overwritten with what SAP seems to think are default values, and in this case those default values are horribly wrong.
    Cheers,
    Andrew

  • Changing variable values in query navigation

    Hello,
    We used to use the functionality of a user exit variable for a web template query and could enter a default value for a query, like yesterday's date. This allowed the web template to be presented without a user having to enter variables in order to initially see data. Then either dropdowns or the navigation block objects could be used to navigate the query. To do this the, "Can be changed in query navigation", was set to on. In BI 7.0 this functionality has been removed. Is there a way to provide a default value to a characteristic that can still be changed during query navigation?
    According to documentation this functionality has been enhanced with default values in the variables but there does not seem to be a way to enter a non-fixed value and still change it during navigation.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Rick

    This can be done by changing the variable to be processed with user exits and changing the user exit for variables to populate the variable value at runtime.
