Appraisal document not visible in portal

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to understand the concept of Appraisal flow.But unable to understand one logic.

1/ I have created template and released it.Next i released the appraisal document using phap_create to a particular employee. Then from In preparation status it went to In planning status(got message once i clicked on End preparation push button)This is done in ECC. Now what is happening  once it is in In planning status,then only i am able to see the Document in Portal.If it is in In preparation status i am not able to see the appraisal doc in Portal.Why does this happen.Pls guide me on this.

2/  If i am trying to release the document for many employees using phap_prepare, i am not able to see the document in Portal. Am i missing any step after this to make it possible. Pls guide me.

Thanks

In planning status can see PART APPRAISER in webdynpro application configuration for ESS(3)

Run tr. SE80 , find applications and try them.

Yurii probably i asked in a complicated manner.

I wanted to know that,in phap_create we have options to end preparation etc(based on push button) and once it is released we can see that in Portal.

But  in phap_prepare,why dont we have any such options for this.Does it mean that if we complete all the steps successfully,documents are released?

Thank u

In phap_prepare (using organisation units) there is only one option "Skip preparation" that means create in next status after status 1.

You can change to write status in PHAP_ADMIN or make write variant in BADI HRHAP00_DOC_PREPARE.
