Who's Who tab - Position field empty/blank in ESS

Dear Friends,
I am facing a problem in ESS->Employee Search -> Who's Who tab
The 'Position' field is 'Blank' on the Webpage when an employee is logged in. All other fields are displayed on the screen like First Name, Last Name, Organizational Unit, Cost Center, Job, Personnel Number, E-mail ID, etc.
Can anyone please suggest me, what should I need to fix this problem...
Appreciate early responses.......
Thanks,

We are getting the emty pages when we click on address/banks or any other links from ESS. Our portal is in 7.0 with ERP 6.0 with Business Pacakge 1.0.
I have checked the JCO connection, it is working fine and also setup system for webdynpro with alias SAP_WebDynpro_XSS.
I am not sure what we are missing here. Anyone helps would be really appreciated.
Thanks

    Good luck with that..  I'm afraid, you may have to put code in the infoset to read 1028 & populate the Address field.

  • Who has changed the Custom Field value?

    Dears,
    Need to know the information regarding how to fetch that who has changed the Custom field value from PWA/MPP.
    Example:
    There is a PDP (say ProjectInfo):
    There is a Custom Field added to that PDP (say Project Status = In Progress).
    Now for ProjectA, someone has checked out and changed the Custom Field "Project Status" from "In Progress" to "Closed".
    I need to fetch the information regarding who has changed that Custom field.
    In which direction should I move: Event Handlers, PSI???? Any other stuff?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Shravan

    Hi Shravan,
    I'm not a developer but I do know that you can use an event handler pushing the resource name and date in custom fields.
    Another way is to use a 3rd-party tool like
    FluentPro Audit Tool.
    Hope this helps,

    I'm an avid Mac enthusiast who works in a creative field. However, I simply cannot afford a new Mac after my old one's internal hard drive failed. Can anyone recommend an affordable Mac option? I don't want to consider a non-Apple product.

    Macs with a FireWire port will also boot happily from an External drive. You don't even need to open the MacBook.
    Some users buy a drive they would like to have as a future Internal drive, and also buy an external enclosure. They get the External set up the way they want it, then swap with the Internal drive.

  • ADD new fields Who's WHo

    Im trying to add new fields to Advanced search in WHO's Who settings which are customs fields Z from infotype 1008; I customized new infoset copy from standard adding this infotype, but im getting error when i run de query on ESS, anyway Who's who don't Show fields from infotype 1008 on output field details, Anybody Knows How I can add custom fields in Who's who infoset and how the hell can I read infotype 1008 from infoset on  PCH DataBase?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Here is the catch, when you add the custom infotype make sure it has the primary key same as other infotypes used in the Query.
    For example make Pernr as the primary key in the custom infotype.
    I tried the same in our landscape and it worked fine.
    The steps I did are as below:
    In SQ02 - EDIT - Change Info-Type Selection - Add the Custom Infotype to the Query
    In SQ03 created a custom user group and assigned Infoset to the User Group.
    In SQ01 create the query and click on Change - From the top selected Basic List and added the fields which I want to see in list and also the selection criteria.
    Once done with this execute the Query and see if the data is populated from the Custom Infotype.
    There is no coding needed to populate the data.
    Make sure the join is right and it should get the data. And the above link shows how to include the Custom Info-type fields in WHO'S WHO search.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers-

  • Who is Who - dropdown list for fields in the advance search

    Hello:
    In the advance search of the Who is Who service, we have the Organization Unit and Cost Center as searching fields.
    We can't be able to see the dropdown list for these 2 fields from the Portal.
    Do anyone have any idea of what configuration is missing?
    Thanks.
    Regards,

    hi,
    according to my knowledge they don't have Unique ID but unique names attached to them.
    open Outlook
    go to Tools -> Forms -> Design Form -> select Message then right click on 'To' textbox and chose Advance Properties it has a field 'Name' that name can be used for reference in your development.
    hope this helps you.

  • Adding Field to Who's Who iView in ESS

    Hi,
    We have EP 7.0  and have deployed ESS/MSS 1.0.  I want to modify  who's who iView in Employee Search.
    In who's who iView there is field of Organizational Unit which display searched employee organizational Unit. But i want to modify that field.. i.e i have created z-table which stores division / department of every employee.
    Thus this organizational unit should display department from z-table created not default value which it picks up..
    According to my understanding there is BAPI BAPI_EMPLOYEE_GETDATA which does fetching of data, thus anything needs to be done with this BAPI. or is there any other simple way to do this...
    regards,

  • 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.

  • Vendor field empty for RE line items in FBL3N

    dear all-
    I'm experiencing a strange situation. Instead of using the MM-report, I want to do a GRIR analysis in FI. When I run FBL3N for the GRIR account I see that for the goods-receipt related documents (doc type WE) field like puchase order and vendor number are populated (and contain a value). However for the line items that come from the invoice the field purchase order is filled but the field vendor is blank.
    I did have a look at the BSEG table for the WE- and RE-related documents: for all line items of the WE document (goods receipt) the fields purchase order and vendor contained a value, for the RE document (invoice receipt) all line items have a value for purchase order but only the first line item (vendor line) has a value for the field vendor. On all the other line items the vendor field is blank.
    Looks pretty strange to me, who has a good solution?
    thx
    Ben

    hi Vishal-
    Thanks for the BSIK, BSIS tip!
    In the meantime I did find report RFWERE00. I was able to generate a list that indeed showed the vendor number on the GRIR account both from the GR- and RE-document. Didn't have time yet to go over the code to figure out where this report gets its data from.
    The report offers options to do actual clearing and do postings ... I'm not interested in that. Only in the list. I have a start now ...
    ... If you have another I idea that prevents me from creating a customer report ... I'm eager to hear it!

  • 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.

  • Who's Who customizing in ESS

    Hi,
    We are using portal 6.0 SP17, with ECC 5.0 and the Web Dynpro based ESS applications.
    1)
    Is it possible to customize the fields that are displayed in the standard application, without Java coding ?
    If not, can someone give me a hint of how to do that. Is it required to use the JDI -environment, or is there a easier way to do it ?
    Best Regards,
    Kristian Rantakoski

    Yes....the selection, results and detail fields can all be HIGHLY customized all through the IMG in the backend system. You (or whoever is handling this) will find it under the ESS IMG section. The fields you can choose from all come from a standard SAP HR query. If you need other fields, you can create a modified "Z" version of that query and use it. Also, the fields for the detail tab will also be the ones that show up in the "Change own data" service for Who's Who. It will be confusing since the config you do in the "ITS services" section of ESS config will actually affect the Webdynpro versions too. Hope this helps!
