Who's Who Search in ESS

Hello,
In ESS in our EP 7 SP10 portal environment, the "who's who" search does not work properly.  A lot of times people are missing that should be there.  We think we have ruled out this being a security issue because we have used a broad sample of users.  Has anyone else experienced this?
Thank you for your time,
Erin Byrne

hey
how we solved it is from the ABAP side.
login to R/3
follow the below given path.
Personnel Management -> Employee Self-Service -> Employee Self Service (ITS Version) -> ESS Settings for Specific Services -> Life & Work Event
this way you can add or remove or edit the fields..
all the best.
Regards

  • Records shown in Who's who search result

    Hi Experts
    I have one requirement regarding the search results of Who's who in employee search on ESS. My client want that in the search results of Who's Who, only active employees of the company will be displayed. In other words employees with inactive and withdrawn status should not be displayed in the search results.
    Can you please guide me how can I restrict the system to display only the active employees.
    Thanks in advance
    Thanks & Best Regards
    Sheetal Gupta

    I think this is not possible
    whether active or in active the who is who search  gives all the personal numbers  based on the  various options given for search in  general search  and advanced search

  • ESS Who is Who - Add search criteria

    Hi all,
    I have tried searching the forums, but can't find an answer for my problem. I want to add an additional field to the search criteria for the who is who iview.
    I am able to change the advanced search, but I want to add a search criteria on the first screen. Changing the service for the adress book (Employee Self-Service -> Service-Specific Settings -> Address Book -> Who's Who -> Who's Who (ESS): Selection and Output) does not change this first screen.
    Anyone know how I can make this change?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind regards,
    Marlies

    If by selecting fields you mean in the Who's Who (ESS): Selection and Output, then yes.
    I have there available 3 tabs, none have the default settings.
    First tab I can set the selectionfields, but when changing/adding a field here, my "simple search" does not change. The changes here are reflected under the advanced search, which is nice, but not what I want.
    I simply want to add 1 additional field to the first search screen, so the user does not have to always use the advanced search option.

  • Add PERNR  fieldTo Who's Who Search on ESS

    Hi
    I need to know how do I add a Search field -PERNR to who's who Infoset Query on ESS. I would also like to know how do I delete certain fields from Selection fields.
    Thanks
    Priya

    Does the infoset not have PERNR available? If so, no need to change infoset.  (We use a different one for other reasons).
    Go to transaction PZ01C.
    Bottom part shows available fields in infoset.  Check for PERNR.
    Add the wanted field (I belieav it would be P0001-PERNR) to selection fields.
    Hope this helps.

  • Who's who as WDA ESS?

    Hi there,
    I am a brand new IDES Enh. Pack 5 system that I am trying to convince to show me how the Who's Who employee self service works. Today we have a system with Enh. Pack 3 with all our employee data loaded, but we have not configured employee self services as we do not have a java based system to deploy it on.
    As a proof of concept and to convince the correct people that we need to upgrade to Enh. Pack 5 sooner rather than later I would really like to be able to show a demo of the Who's Who application. But how can I demonstrate it? It seems like the IDES system has a number of employees defined in client 800, so the question that remains is only what type of configuration is missing. I have already googled quite a bit to try to find a configuration guide or a how to, but all the documentation that I can find relate to the java version of the ESS.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  • ESS Who's Who (ECC6, WD) - Error with telephone direct dial link

    Hi there -
    We are on ECC6, NW 2004s (SP14).  I have the following field in our Who's Who 'Output field detail' -
    SYHR_A_P0105_AF_TEL_NR - Area code + local access code
    Also in config, I have the checkbox DESELECTED for 'Allow direct telephone dialing.'
    Issue with Who's Who service:
    The telephone number is displayed as a hyperlink.  When I click the link, I get the following message: 'Search resulted more than 1500 records, Only first 1500 records is displayed.'
    Then if I click the link again, I get a dump: 500 Internal Error,
    com.sap.tc.webdynpro.modelimpl.dynamicrfc.WDDynamicRFCExecuteException: Specify a server name , error key: RFC_ERROR_SYSTEM_FAILURE
    Does anyone know how to get rid of the link - direct dialing is not a requirement for my client.  Also - the first error message makes no sense.  Any help would be greatly appreciated - I am stumped.
    Regards,
    Karen

  • ESS: Who's Who Authorization Checks

    Hi,
    I am testing the ESS iView (tcode PZ01) in the Portal and it seems to be restricting the search results by my authorizations.  I am not getting a full list of people in the system.  Anyone know how to turn-off this authorization check?
    I noticed this only happens when I changed the ESS Who's Who customizing in the IMG for PZ01.  If I uncheck the checkbox 'Output fields list', then it checks authorzations.  I'm thinking this has something to do with using the BAPI vs. using the query infoset, as the documentation states.

    Old post but I have had a similar issue and it was caused by P_ORGIN
    Infortype 0105 subtype?????
    Seem if the subtype is restricted then they are not displayed if subtype populated in the HR record.

  • ESS Who is Who and EHP5

    Hi group,
    We have had our first live peek at EHP5.  What we couldn't find, was the old "Who is Who".  The part for "Edit own data" seems to be split in different parts of personal data (which suits us fine).
    But we couldn't find the Employee Search functionality.
    Could anyone enlighten me here?

  • Who's Who: How to refine employee search using customer defined indicator?

    Hello,
    It is possible to refine employee search using status indicator STAT2 (Employees' Employment Status). I would like to refine employee search using e.g. Customer defined status indicator STAT1. I created an entry identical to STAT2 but with STAT1
    in view V_T77S0 but it did not help at all.
    How to refine employee search using customer defined indicator or any other info
    from infotype 0000 or 0001?
    Kind regards,
    Pawel

    Hi
    This could be done using the infosets provided in who's who customization screen.
    Pl go through following help.
    If this helps, pl do reward.
    Who's Who (ESS): Selection and Output
    In this activity, you can change the fields for selecting and outputting data for the Who's Who service. The fields of the underlying InfoSet Query are available. Note, however, that text fields cannot be used for data selection (with the exception of the fields Organizational Unit, Position Name, and Job Name).
    You have the following options:
    You can specify the fields for selecting an employee.
    You can specify the fields for the hitlist, that is, the list of all employees who meet the selection criteria.
    You can specify the fields for the detail screen for a selected employee.
    All selected fields are automatically transferred to the service in the sequence you chose and are then available for selection or output.
    Standard settings
    The standard system contains an InfoSet for the service. It contains default selection and output fields.
    Activities
    1. Check whether the default settings fulfill your requirements.
    2. If you want to change the default values, proceed as follows:
    a) Choose the relevant tab page and remove the indicator in the Use default settings for group box.
    To change the selection fields, choose the Selection Fields tab page.
    To change the fields of the hitlist, choose the Output Fields List tab page.
    To change the fields of the detail screen, choose the Output Fields Detail tab page.
    b) If you want to delete a default field, select the field in the relevant tab page and choose Delete Line from Display Table.
    c) If you want to add an additional field from the InfoSet, select the field in the Fields in InfoSet group box and choose Copy Entry from InfoSet Table. You have two options:
    You select an existing field in the tab page and choose Insert Entry in Display Table. The system copies the InfoSet field and inserts it above the selected entry.
    You select the blank field at the end of the tab page and choose Insert Entry in Display Table. The system copies the InfoSet field and inserts it at the end of the tab page.
    Note that the sequence of the fields in the tab page determines the sequence of the fields in the service.
    The selection screen fields are laid out according to the following pattern (maximum of 4 rows and 20 fields):
    1 I 2 I 3 I13 I17
    4 I 5 I 6 I14 I18
    7 I 8 I 9 I15 I19
    10 I11 I12 I16 I20
    The fields in the detail screen are laid out underneath each other for a maximum of 20 rows, while the fields in the hitlist are laid out from left to right for each row, for a maximum of 20 fields.
    Note: You cannot select by the Employment Status field (P0000-STAT2).
    d) If you want to add a new field that is not in the InfoSet, you have to create a new InfoSet. You then assign the required field to the new InfoSet. Then select the new InfoSet in the InfoSet field in the Parameters group box. Proceed as described above to add the field to the relevant tab page.
    For information about creating InfoSets, see Specify InfoSets for Interactive Employee Selection in the IMG for the HR Information System.
    Not the SAP naming convention for the standard InfoSet: /SAPQUERY/HR_XX_PA_ESS
    The country code "XX" stands for "international." The InfoSet itself is in the global area (cross-client). You can create customer-specific InfoSets by copying an existing entry. Take account of your  customer namespace and set the relevant country code.
    Note: The Personnel Number field (P0000-PERNR) must not be added to the InfoSet. If you want to use the personnel number, use the P0001-PERNR field, for example.
    e) In the Sort field of the Output Fields List tab page, you can specify the sort sequence in the hitlist.
    Example: You have selected the Last Name and First Name fields for the hitlist. You want the hits to be sorted first of all by the employees' last name, then by the first name. You therefore enter 1 for the last name and 2 for the first name in the Sort field.
    f) Once you have completed your modifications, choose Check Display Table. If the check was successful, choose Save to save your changes. If inconsistencies were found during the check, a message in the relevant line notifies you of them.
    Further notes
    In certain circumstances, runtime issues may occur, especially in data selection. If they do, set the Selection Fields indicator in the Use Default Settings for group box. This deactivates the use of the InfoSet Query; instead, the system uses the BAPI_EMPLOYEE_GETDATA method.
    You can switch the hitlist and the detail screen to the BAPI_EMPLOYEE_GETDATA method by setting the Output Fields List and Output Fields Detail indicators.
    Note that by setting an indicator, you restrict the field selection in the relevant tab page to the interface of the method.
    If, in the initial screen, you enter a country for which values have not yet been defined, the system automatically creates an entry that sets all indicators in the Use default settings for group box. You can then edit the entry to suit your requirements.
    You can specify whether you want employees' photos to be displayed in the service in the IMG for Employee Self-Service under Determine User Options.
    If this helps, pl do reward.
