Work flow for Leave request without ESS

Dear All,
For one of our client, we have configure workflow for leave request, first is it possible to do tht?
If so how to do it?, here we dont have ESS/MSS. Is there any standard workflow available?
Thanx

There is standard workflow task which give by SAP to approve leave request i.e. 12300111.
But I am not sure this workflow task will work with out Portal or not.

Standard Work flow for Leave approval in HR module

Hi ,
My query is there any standard work flow available in HR module for Leave approval and Over time approval. We have negative time management and with out ESS and MSS.
Pl suggest if any one has used this earlier with out ESS or EP
Regards
Punit

I can think of the following but not without enhancement for the workflow part.
- Since you are not using ESS, you (leave admin) may create the absence record directly in IT2001 (in LOCK mode).
- In the user exit of 2001 you may trigger your Workflow process (i.e. call the function module to trigger WF here) depending on the LCCK status. You have to explore if standard WF can be used to your requirement.
- Upon approval, you can UNLOCK the absence.
- In the event that UNLOCK is unsuccessful, trigger WF to your Leave Admin for him to update via PA30.
Standard SAP Workflow
- Only 1 level approval
- Using Chief Position
IF your workflow requirement deviates, then you have to also customize workflow, does not matter whether you are using ESS or not.
Finally test and retest to make sure all possible events are covered.
OT is the same, except that you need to use 2007 vs 2002

Work flow for Change Request not reliably sending emails.

I created a work flow that sends an email to a changers Manager whenever a routine Change Request is created. Sometimes the email does not go and I narrowed it down to a possible race condition between the workflow running and Service Manager adding the
Manager in as a Reviewer on the Review Activity.
When I hard code a recipient into the Reviewer list, the email works every time. When I leave the Reviewers list blank and check the box "Line Manager should review", Service Manager properly adds the changers Manager in as a Reviewer but the email
sometimes does not work.
What I am thinking is the workflow is running before Service Manager can add the Manager in as a Reviewer and therefore no email. If this is the case, is this a possible bug or how do I delay the workflow and give Service Manager enough time to populate
the Reviewer list on the Review Activity.

"Updated" is not going to work. Now the Manager gets two emails identical to each other and when the Approve the RA, they get a third. Basically every time the RA is touched, it fires an email. Can't have this.
So, back to "Created". It is still unreliable. I did not think getting an email sent would be this much trouble. Basically all I am trying to do is when a user creates a Change Request, their Manager gets an email notifying them that a Review
Activity needs attention.
If anyone has any idea on how to do this, let me know. Is there any way I can do this with a notification subscription instead of a workflow? I tried to use a subscription but I could not figure out what criteria to use to send an email to the changers Manager.

Time Constraints on ESS - Record Working Time and Leave Request

Hi All,
I have configured Time Constraints and their reaction in V_T554Y.
When I record the appropriate combination of Attendances and Absences in back-end, I can see the reactions as specified... However, when I try to do the same in ESS - Recording Working Time and Leave Request, I do not see that Time Constraints taking effect on the front end.
Here is what I have done:
I have two attendance - P001 and P002. P001 is configured to be recorded on Leave Request where as P002 is configured to be recorded via Record Working Time (CATS) link.
I record the attendance P001 in Leave Request and also post that into infotypes. After this, I try to record P002 in the Record Working Time Screen and I still get errors (Errors are from: HRTIM00REC E/207 and LR E/335)
If I try to replicate the same in the back-end in IT20002, then there is no issues.
Can anyone help and let me know how we can implement the same Time constraints reactions on the front-end and the back-end.
Thanks a bunch
- Harshal

Note that Time constraints are not valid for Leave request and Working time ie in ESS
it only comes via PA30
in CATS too, we dont follow much HR related collisions checks these are taken into consideration during CAT6
and in leave request via Rptarqpost
so its not gonna work, Its intended and correct! go for a user exit cats0003 or check cac1 profile customisation

Approval work flow for Role based and Resource based

Hi All,
We have to implement approval work flow for the following things in OIM 9.1.0.1
Approval work flow for Functional Roles (Groups in OIM) (Approvalsrequired for users to get these roles)
IT Roles (Resources in OIM) (Approvalsrequired for users to get these resource)
Functional Role (Group) contains policy1,polici2. Polciy1 contains res1,res2 and Policy2 contain res3,res4.I want to create approval work flow for this Functional Role to achieve the following
User raise a request for the functional role, then it should wait to get manager approval. then once its gets approval, that user account should create on all resources which are involved in that group.
And, I have to define approoval work flow for all individual resources to get users account creation on target with approvals. These resources may include in the groups as well.
After getting approval for functional role (Group), then Will OIM starts the approval flow for all resources involved in the group? becase, all resources have approval workflow at resource level also.
My Goal: Approval work flow for Group, should not process the approval work flow for resource. can we do it in OIM 9.1.0.1?
And can we do the same in OIM 11g also?
Please help me and do let me know, if you need any information from my end.
Thanks.

Thats configurable buddy ! ! And possible in 10G and 11G both versions.
Functional Roles : These are the groups/roles in OIM 10g/11g with access policies attached at the backend.
- Create a dummy resource and name it Request Role or anything as you like. Attach an Object Form to it and have form field for Role Name, this would be a lookup type field linked to all OIM groups (leave system values using lookup query). So a user can select any OIM Group in this request as per configuration. Have approval workflows defined on this dummy resource Request Role and in its Provisioning Process make user/s a part of the requested group.
- Now once the user is made a part of the group, the associated access policy would be invoked automatically and thereby provisioning. The only thing you need to keep in mind is that create the access policy without approval (there is a check box). If you do this the approvals would never be invoked even if you assign a group manually to the user coz it suppresses all the approvals in this access policy.
IT Roles : These would be linked to the resource and you can define individual approvals on the resources as required.These approvals would be required if someone raises a request for these resources individually.
Thanks

Error: You are not a receiver of the work item in Leave Request Deletion

Hi All,
We are using customized leave request workflow which is the copy of standard leave request workflow.
All tasks are assigned as general tasks and assigned in SWFVISU.
But the employees are unable to delete the leave request with Sent status.
Scenario:
Employee applies leave.
Now when the employee tries to delete / cancel the leave request before approval (Status is SENT), the employee is getting the error
"You are not a receiver of the work item".
This issue is happening for only the leaves which are in "SENT" status and though the employee is able to delete the "REJECTED" leave requests. The employee is also able to change / modify the leave requests without an issue.
We are on EHP 7 with SP level 22 and running this on Portal 740.
I have gone through the threads related to this issue but did not get any success.
Please let me know if I am missing something that can resolve the issue .
Regards,
Anurag

Hi Sid,
As I mentioned above, we are on EHP 7 with SP 22 and hence the above note 1066288 does not apply in our case.
Moreover, we're using WDA based application and the above note seems to be the one for XSS based on WDJ.

Anurag

BSP error while applying a Leave request in ESS

Dear Friends,
Reposting an issue which I posted earlier in ESS Forum as I didn't get solution there and the issue is more technical and moved towards Netweaver applications.
While applying a leave request in ESS portal, I am getting an error page saying Business Server Page error.
Checked related SPRO Nodes: Both ESS UI5 and ESS (Java) nodes. They are maintained. Being HCM Functional Consultant, this error I am not able to analyze anyway. So asking Portal /Netweaver experts here.
Error screen attached-
My earlier thread posted in ESS forum
http://scn.sap.com/thread/3675714
Expecting a quick solution for this as I am stuck in this issue for last 4-5 days .

While raising Leave Request on ESS: getting warning message displayed

Hi All,
When i am trying to raise a leave request from ESS i am getting the warning message displayed on the page as follows:
"Customizing for employee 00001153 does not exist"
I want this message to be removed.
Is this problem from R/3 end or any configuration needs to be done on ESS ?
Pls let me know how to remove this message.
Regards
Vijay

this message ensues when there is a missing customisation for the pernr, For example :
message is being displayed due to rule group customizing is missing
for a leave '0560' for which a leave record exists on the date
'14th March 2008'.
One possible solution would be to create a record in the customizing or delete the record from the application.
So please check the customisation of the absences, Quotas, rule group etc for this particular employee

Adobe form for leave request

Dear experts,
There is no standard leave request form provided by SAP. We are developing an adobe form which lists the employee's quota and leaves taken earlier along with the current leave details. This form should be displayed to the approvers from the leave workflow.
When the approver clicks on the work item, the leave request form should popup. There are two technical challenges in this requirement -
1. This requirement is similar to the standard ones for travel request and expense request - In travel request and expense request, SAP has provided standard forms and the workflow container is a standard importing parameter in these adobe forms. This container is helpful in deriving most of the content on the adobe form. However, there is no such link in case of leave request. How does the workflow information be passed to the adobe form? ( i will have to display employee details, quota, current leave, approvers list, approvers comments, etc).
2. For leave request, the approval task is TS12300097 that has "Java Webdynpro" as visualization type. Whereas for travel and expense workflow approval tasks, the visualization type is "ABAP Webdynpro". I am assuming the "JAVA WD" will make it really tough to call the adobe form from the work item.
Any thoughts, suggestions on this requirement will be of great help.
Thanks

Hi Abdul
which version u r currently working on?? check in swfvisu t-code where you can find the below task
I'm not that good at technical level, but still I try to help you with my limited knowledge.Instead of trying from binding rule, try with Function Module via BOR Object Method. you can get that function module at the time Adobe form creation. Can't you consider that Adobe form as a attachment in the work item???
