Approval for Personal and Address details change from ESS

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have to trigger a workflow when ever an employee changes his personal details(eg: Marital status) or address details from portal, it should send an approval to HR UWL and once HR approves then only it should update the data in the backend.

1. Any standard workflow exists for this

1. Is there any standard way of triggering the custom workflow

2. How to block the updation until it is approved by HR

Thanks for your help..

Check WS01000080-ESSAddrChange.

The consultant of WF can help you more.

Hi,

1. Any standard workflow exists for this = i'm not aware of such workflow but you can make it your self

2. Is there any standard way of triggering the custom workflow = yes, use the object event, for example object ADDRESSEMP, event changed. This would trigger the workflow if employee address is changed.

3. How to block the updation until it is approved by HR = use lock and unlock authorization.

So basicly you want to create custom workflow with trigerring event, and apply the lock and unlock the authorization. you just need to research more on workflow and basic authorization,

hope it helps

Hi,

As suggested by Siddhartha, the HCM forms and processes is the best and most recommended way to handle such kind of requirements. Only thing need to bear in mind is this is launched through Adobe Interactive forms and not through webdynpros and also has additional licensing implications.

See the below link for more information on HCM forms and processes. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60/helpdata/EN/43/05e42bdfc221b9e10000000a1553f6/content.htm

Youhave to use the option of Processes and forms which are already WF enabled

check in backend using Hrasr_test_process

To assign WF to Java WD would be a task as it will require modification

Hi ,

The Standard Webdynpro is a Java Webdynpro,

So There is no option to assign workflow for the standard.

You Have to make a custom ABAP Dynpro with Workflow.

Simple Way could be using HCM Process and Forms - new Module that is available From Ehp2.

simple Objects are required to do this...using HCm process and Forms

For Custom you can have different solution too

Refer ths Thread too..
