Time Sheet Data Approval and WorkFlow.

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I am using Standard Task TS31000007 for time-sheet data approval.

i have maintained the data-entry profile and assign the 'Task' TS31000007.

Following are the problems encountered :

1.When i am saving the time-sheet data i am getting error : Unable to save your data

2. In MSS i am not able to get the time-sheet data for approval.

I want to save the time-sheet data . and it should get submitted to approver for the approval.

Need help step-by-step to configure the workflow for approving the time-sheet data.

Pls help.

[siddharthrajora]

there are standard Sap_ESS* roles, please check this

[Former Member]

Hi ,

I have given following roles assigned to approver:

SAP_BC_EMPLOYEE

SAP_BC_ENDUSER

SAP_EMPLOYEE_ERP

SAP_ESSUSER_ERP

SAP_HR_EMPLOYEE_DE_ERP

SAP_HR_EMPLOYEE_US_ERP

SAP_HR_PA_XF_EXPERT

I have also given P_ORIGIN authorization

apart from this what others authorization object / role i have to assign?

[Former Member]

Hi Siddharth,

I have a scenario where a Time Administrator in HR entering time in CAT2 is not allowed to approve his own time entry in CAPS but allowed to approve other employee's timesheet.

I have maintained the infotype 0316 in P_PERNR with PSIGN value = E. the time admin can still approve with this authorization. am i missing anything ?

[siddharthrajora]

This error occurs when the customisation is not available for table

ie Configuration for screen areas CTS and CTD is missing. View

V_PT_FIELD_SEL is meant to hold the relevant information.

Please have a look at the client 000 for the default customisation.

So, What you need to do is write table TPT_FIELD_SEL_C on a transport

and transport it to client. You will then have all the setting

you need for the application to work.

Here is the path

In the IMG (transaction SPRO), go to

- SAP Customizing Implementation Guide

- Cross-Application Components

- Time Sheet

- Specific Setting for CATS regular

- CATS regular

- Approve Working Time

- Define Field Selection for Individual Approval View

- Define Field Selection for Detail View

[Former Member]

Hi ,

Would you just explain me in details what need to be done excatly.

Regards

[Former Member]

Thanks once again for your kindly help.

[former_member459691]

Hi Siddharth,

I am facing the same kind of issue.

In table TPT_FIELD_SEl_C, field value TABNAME is not moving from development to QAS using transport.

In development I am having value in TABNAME field. In QAS the field TABNAME is blank. So i am getting the same error "Exception condition "NOT_FOUND" raised" in QAS.

Any help from you to solve the issue?

Regards,

Bala

[siddharthrajora]

What message you get in portal?

Just launch the application in uwl, Note in MSS timesheet, The timesheet are combined as it is meant

for mass approval

[Former Member]

Hi,

Basically i am not accessing the MSS by using UWL.

I have just done the configuration as mention in my early querry.

Also i am not getting any message / error.

The only problem i am facing right now i am not getting any workitem to approve in MSS.

Your suggestion and help is most appreciable.

[siddharthrajora]

Take the workitem ID from CATSDB for the pernr and check using SWIA

to which approver it is assigned! Please check who is approver for the pernr!! Then login as him!

[Former Member]

Hi Siddarth,

I have done exactly the same way as you have said. I can see the workitem in the Managers Worklist. Status for these timesheet is 20 . But the same workitem is not visible when I am logging into MSS using his MSS userid in portal.

From Backend using transaction PPMDT I can see all the timesheets that needs to be approved by the manager. Please help me out How i can see the same in MSS Portal.

Regards,

Pravesh D.

[siddharthrajora]

Make sure that the Task is set as general in pftc and also ensure that the supervisor is maintained

for this pernr, Cause this task works when there is a manager maintained, Check the position and its reporting structure in ppome

[Former Member]

Hi ,

i have already done this things.

Still i am not able to get the workitem for approving .

Regards

Pravesh

[Former Member]
