Hi Sudhir ,
The entry exists in sbwp and also i can see it in iview tasks inbox. Once i click on the task , i go to the next page. On clicking the "review" button i get this error .
i tested the system connection sap_ecc_financials and sap_ecc_humanresources are green.
Do think i am missing on IMG Config or some thing in UWL Configuration .
i get the following error on ecc system .
Error analysis
    A RAISE statement in the program "SAPLSDIFRUNTIME" raised the exception
    condition "NOT_FOUND".
    Since the exception was not intercepted by a superior
    program, processing was terminated.
    Short description of exception condition:
    For detailed documentation of the exception condition, use
    Transaction SE37 (Function Library). You can take the called
    function module from the display of active calls.
thanks ,
bobby.

Critical Error when running MSS Work Overview Page

Hi All,
I am experiencing a critical error when I open the MSS Overview Page in the portal. Attendance Overview, Reminder of Dates,
Team Calendar & Status Overview for Personnel Change Requests each display the following error message:
A critical error has occured. Processing of the service had to be terminated. Unsaved data has been
lost.
Please contact your system administrator.
Read of object with ID

failed.
I have made the following discoveries:
1. When I provide the role with Super_Administration rights, it works perfectly fine but once I remove this, it stops working.
2. When I assign the authenticated group as a child group to my customised MSS & ESS Group, the iViews work perfectly fine but ESS gains access to MSS roles.
I have had a read through the following Separate UWL Admin from System Admin? but I am not too sure whether this relates directly to my problem, if anyone can shed some light on this, please do.
Thanks in advance.
Oloy.

Hi Rajendra,
I have assigned the necessary permissions to both the default SAP MSS folder (Content Provided By SAP -> Line Manager -> Manager Self- Service)
and I have also assigned permissions to my custom folder however, this has still not helped.
I assigned Read/Write permissions with the end-user box ticked.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Oloy.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Working Time Approval

Hi Gurus,
We are using the SAP Std. Working Time application. Employee is submitting his/her working time and the manager received a Work Item in his UWL.
While clicking on it, Manager is redirected to the collective approval screen.
Is there a way that he can approve individual employees request rather than doing it collectiviely?
Please advice...
Regards,
Rekha Malavathu

Working time approval with MSS

Hello,
I am trying to configure the MSS in order to approve the recorded times. Using cProjects for resource handling I would like to see the times to approve in the hierarchy of the project (with project, phase and taks). I would like this hierarchy in combination with the personal no, ... by choosing different views.
At the moment I only found the time approval application for the line manager. This isn't sufficient for us in terms of userfriendlyness.
Now I am searching the application sap.com/msscatapproval/CatProjectApprove in my portal. Unfortunately without success at the moment.
Could someone describe me how you are using the record time approval? How does the hierarchy of the items look like. Did you write your own application? Is it possible to drill down and drill up the data?
Thank you,
Vanessa

Hi Mariana
You would have the use the workflow and create a Portal role containing only UWL
Best wishes

MSS working time approval by project leader

Hello all Gurus,
We are implementing ESS / MSS with ECC6. We are in the need to approve time recorded in ESS. We have completed the time entry part. The problem comes in the authorization with MSS. We need the person responsible (project lead) in Project System (PS) to approve time for resources. We have created the approval profile in SPRO, we have asigned the parameter CATS_APPR_PROF in su01 as it was mention in past forums. We assigned the MSS roles and activated them. We assigned in the OPS6 transaction the person responsible of the project (project lead). When we go to the time approval in MSS it shows that there is no records to approve.
Is there any more configuration to this or does anyone have any solution or experience in project leaders approving time with MSS.
Thanks
Regards,
Enrique Lona

Raj,
Thanks for the the quick answer. Please could you send me a little more information into where to configure OADP settings for time approval. And how to set the evaluation path.
Thanks,
Regards,
Enrique

Custom View not visible in Overview page as AB unless "Reset to Default"

Hi Experts,
I am facing a strange issue here.
I enhanced the component TPMOE and created a custom view ZTRADESPENDEXCEPTION in it.
Now i have added this view as assignment block in all 6 configuration available for the overview page.
I have redefined the DETACH_STATIC_OVW_VIEWS and REATTACH_STATIC_OVW_VIEWS.
The issue i am facing is that my view assignment block is not visible to the user unless he/she goes to the personalization of the overview page and hits "Reset to Default". Once this is done, later on users can change there personalizations and everything works fine.
Now i am not sure i can go and tell all end users to go to personalization of the TPMOE overview page and click on "Reset to Default".
Is there any other way i can show my view to the end users?
I have done this on the lines of overview page layout changing when you select product planning basis while creating Trade Promotions.
Thanks and Regards
Gaurav Kumar Raghav

Hi Amar,
My coding is given below.
In DETACH_STATIC_OVW_VIEWS, the coding is:
Call Super Method
ls_viewid-view_id = '<My View Name>'.
Append ls_viewid to rt_view_id
In REATTACH_STATIC_OVW_VIEWS, the coding is:
Call Super Method
if <flag> = 'X'.
ls_viewid-view_id = '<My View Name>'.
Append ls_viewid to rt_return.
endif.
In debug mode, the coding get executed correctly and my view is returned for attachement.
For each user, the first time, i need to say "Reset to Default".
After that it works fine, my view is displayed.
Is the program "BSP_DLC_DELETE_PERSONALIZATION" a good solution to my problem?
Thanks and Regards
Gaurav Kumar Raghav

MSS Time Approval - multiple (different) selection options for manager?

Hi all
I am setting up MSS Time Approval delegation in ERP2005 without workflow, leave request, nor portal development environment set up.
In this case, the customer needs to have multiple selection options for who to approve:
1. The manager's direct reports (standard functionality)
2. All subordinates, all levels down
3. Delegate's (manager or non-manager) view of a particular (other) manager's direct reports
3b. This might extend to a set of different delegation selections
4. Add or remove certain individuals
Now, getting 3. and 4. to work was simple using the BAdI (I think the enhancement spot is named APPR_CUST), method ...-edit_selection, but I am having difficulties with 2. and 3b. Now I am thinking along these lines, and I would greatly appreciate your input:
A. It seems that the MSS "Approve working time" app only loads the data selection at the entry into this screen (INIT command from portal), using the start perspective determined for example by the IMG for defining the approval profile <-> view. My debugging suggests that the view change from the drop down menu (CHANGE_PERSPECTIVE command) only picks a different way to present the same data set.
Could anybody please confirm or contradict this conclusion?
B. Is it possible to present the entire "Approve working time" section in MSS in multiple different copies so that they would all generate an INIT command? Or is it possible to copy and modify the entire MSS tab, resulting in an ESS tab, one MSS, one "D"SS, one "A"SS (well, not suggesting that the top manager is one, but you get the drift...) and so on?
If either of this were possible, it would be simple to make two modifications, one at the beginning of the FM called by the portal and one at the FM that returns the start perspective.
So far I have been trying to catch and alter the CHANGE_PERSPECTIVE command into an INIT in the back end, but the Time Approval functionality is a bit too complex for me to feel entirely comfortable with this approach.
Your input is much appreciated!
Kind regards
Niclas Arndt

We too are using MSS for time approval of time entered via ESS. We are on ECC 6.0 for the backend (no enhancement packs, at least not yet), currently sp stack 10 with hrsp 24, and EP 7.0 with stack 10 for the ESS/MSS business packages. We are using the standard MSS UWL functionality for the approval, so it is workflow-based in my understanding.
In other parts of MSS, the managers can see a few levels deep in the organization structure, based upon the definition we gave for their structural profiles. For instance, in the team calendar/overview, or other team information, they have a choice for multiple levels or only direct reports. However, in the time approval application, only direct reports are shown, so if a manager goes on vacation, at present the only way to cover time approvals for that manager's employees appears to be to temporarily assign a new 'chief' to that org unit, so HR involvement becomes necessary. The manager doesn't have any method for delegating the approval or other MSS authorities. We were hoping that by allowing multiple levels in the structural profile, such approvals would "roll up" to the next level, i.e. the manager's supervisor, so the next level manager could act as a backup to his/her managers on vacation. That doesn't work, however.
We have heard that a delegation feature for MSS will be available in an upcoming release, but I haven't found any information regarding whether that requires an upgrade, an enhancement pack, a later service pack level, or what or when that functionality will be available. Does anyone know anything about that?

hi, hav u created webdynpro iView..
Suppose you want a new area which has two servicex.. create WD iView which would point to your application.
Define Applicationparameter in iView defining menuarea, menugroup, menuheader, which you will be defining in SPRO.
Now create weddynpro proxy page and the add above iView to your page.
Now create iView for service i.e your webdynpro appliaction.
Now add above iView to new proxy page. Thus now we have to proxy page.
Create workset and add this two page to workset.
Add this workset to ESS role.
note down PCD location of above two pages.Now all necessary configuation from portal side is completed
Now u would need to do your SPRO setting.. Go to resource node and create resouce. and give PCD location in URL of PCD Page. Similarly you would need to do this for other page also ...in resouce node.
Now we have defined resouce...now we would define the area...give your area name..and give resouce name.
Now define subarea.. and add subarea to areas..from assing sub-area to area node.
Now create a service..from define service node..give resouce name in link resouce text box..
Now assign service to subarea..
Now to make it available on overview page....you need to add Group page to Group Area page, to make it visible on ESS Overview Page.
IMG-> Cross Application Components -> Homepage Framework->Areas -> Assign Areas to Area Group
Pages -> Assign Areas to Area Group Pages (Add and change Entries).
Click on u2018New Entriesu2019.
Now you can save..it..

MSS Time Approval Report

Hello,
I am on EP7.0 ECC 6.0 and have 2 reports in MSS -- Time Approval Overview and Absence Quota....the Absence Quota works fine but when trying to view the Time Approval report it says "the results are displayed in a separate window" ....a new window comes and then disappears....I wonder for the cause for this..
Any help would be highly appreciated.

This issue is cause by authorization as i have just found out after weeks of going round in circles. Put a trace on in the backend to narrow down the auth object and missing values.
I know its a very an old post but it will save someone else some time

MSS Time Approval

Hi,
We are using ECC 6.0 and ERP2005 BP MSS 1.0. We are trying to implement the MSS Time Approval iView, it works for the direct reporting manager approving his/her employee's timesheet. We are not using workflow, the managers from time to time use the time approval web application to approve time.
The old time approval application is using Manager Desktop and support delegation. Using the new web time approval, I am not sure how to enable delegation to another managers so that they can approve others' employees timesheet delegated to them. Any ideas how we can enable delegation are very much welcome.
Thanks in Advance,
Ti.

ESS Overview page EP 7

Hi there,
Please can someone assist me?
We are using EP7 (ECC6) and our client only wants to use certain functionality of ESS.
For e.g.
ESS role consist of the overview page and one of the links/workset on the overview page is called Working Time and this consist of the following Worksets:
- Working time
- Leave Request
- Clock in/Out Corrections
- Time statement
The client only wants to use the Leave Request workset.
1. How can I remove the other Worksets from the overview page?
2. How can I add my own URL iViews to the overview page?
Many thanks in advance
Jo-lize

Hi ,
To just give you an overview , you have area group pages -> which have area pages -> sub areas -> services ->Resources
Eveything is defined under transaction SPRO -> Home page framework
Define resource - > define additional links , custom apps etc here
Define service -> link that to a resource
Add to a current area or create a new area page and add service to it.
Finally add your area page to the main ess page..

Improving performance on ESS time approval

Hello,
We have our portal that we use for ESS/MSS. We have a lot of users that use this for recording working time.The users have a lot of line items to submit their time for a particular week. For each user they atleast have 25 - 30 line items. After each user submits their time, the managers are having hard time approving the time. It takes for ever for the managers to approve each user's time because the portal page is really slow at this point...
How do we improve the performance of ESS time approval for managers on the portal?
Please suggest any performance tuning measures for this issue.
Thanks much for your help!!
MK!!!

Hi,
I have similar issue for Record Working time. The users got many tasks to record their time and its taking long time to select each task and enter time for respective task, basically the roundtrip for response time is high. For example when user tries to enter time for task and clicks on respective cell it takes around 2-3 sec to get highlighted and once highlighted user need to double click on the field to see the curson and enter the time. Could you please suggets some tips how to increase the performance and user experience.
Thanks in advance.

Number of albums per artist is wrong on my iPad's artist overview page

My music is all there, but on my artist overview page, it is showing artist with more albums than they have. It only seems to effect artist which have songs from more than one album.
My iPad had a more major problem so I had to take it too Apple who replaced it. When I restored the new iPad from a backup, it was running iOS 5 p, which there was no problem with. The next day, I upgraded to iOS 6 again, and the problem was back.
I have tried deleting effected music, and re-downloading from iTunes (on my iPad) with no effect. So then I deleted all the music, and synced it back own with my computer. No effect.
I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem, and if so if they managed to fix it?
I I'm also having a problem where, when I click on March 2013 on my calendar in month mode, or switch to month mode when in March 2013, it glitches and immediately takes me to the home screen. It doesn't effect any other month, or any other March, just March 2013. This problem appeared in iOS 5 about a month back (could have been there longer, just hadn't realised).
The reason I'm telling you is if it is linked in someway and if there is a easy fix for both.
Thanks in advance, Alexandros Theodorou

Well, considering that Apple hasn't even acknowledged the problem yet, I wouldn't hold my breath. Don't get me wrong, I still love iTunes, but things have been getting progressively worse, not better. I’ve had more issues with this db in the last year, then I’ve had in the last decade.
I don't even use services such as iTunes Match, Genius, Shared Libraries, etc. However, I can understand those who do. But what annoys me is, don't alienate your long-standing customers in favor of half-baked services that compromise an already great product. A lot of us have huge libraries and spent years building them. When you start experiencing issues like purchased tracks vanishing w/o explanation, album counts that aren't even close, meta-data changing on its own when playing a track, and dozens of albums being split into 2 and 3 parts just because you made an update... well, sorry, but that's just slopping coding.
Here are just a few of the issues I've encountered within the last 12-15 months:
1) Album Artwork duplicating itself, disappearing, or not transferring correctly to iOS devices. (Resolution: Finally resolved by Apple)
2) Purchased tracks vanishing w/o explanation. Example: Dixie Chicks "The Neighbor" just removed itself from my music library on July 1st, 2012. Ironically enough, the track is no longer available for purchase in the iTunes Store, it's not available under my "cloud purchases", and support was not able to restore, this otherwise rare, track. I was told I must have inadvertently deleted it. Not to sound paranoid here, but the last time I checked, the deletion process requires two steps; one to remove from the library and a second to delete the file permanently. Even stranger is that an “empty” track folder for this song remains and if you’re aware how iTunes works, you know that if you confirm the deletion, the folder is also removed. Support couldn’t explain that one (Resolution: None)
3) Albums being split into two, three, four separate files because you update a track or change a value, even though the album name is identical, the track numbers are correct, and the Album Artist values match. (Workaround: Completely rename the entire album and all its “newly created parts” to something stupid, such as “Test”. Then highlight all the tracks and change them back to the correct Album name. Suddenly, you're back to all tracks being listed as one album.)
4) Metadata (genre, title, etc.) on purchased tracks reverts back to its original value after you click play. Never happened before, now suddenly it’s a constant problem. (Resolution: Trick out the db like above, by chosing a different Genre or other value. Click through each track, then switch the Genre back to your original change.)
5) And lastly, the aforementioned “Album Count” issue.
That said, forgive my rant here, but I’m just getting a bit frustrated with the sloppiness lately. I know Apple can do better... (And yes, I’m running the latest version of iTunes, I’ve played with settings, tried restoring iTunes and my iOS devices, etc.)
