FPM Form - ASR_PROCESS_START_OVP only displays HRASRA process

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

1. ASR_PROCESS_START_OVP only displays HRASRA process which we create by copying standard sample process. Reason is, in Standard processes both HRASRA & HRASRB both are mentioned as Initiator role. But when we are trying to get the Processes related to HRASRB in this application, they are not appearing.

2. Similar issue is happening with process group, only standard process group are appearing in this application have created custom Process group which are not available too.

3. How Launchpad works for FPM form. (Do we need to setup link at portal or how exactly is the flow of Launchpad)

Kindly throw some light on this point pls.

Thanks

Sajal

The configurations depend on the the role and application from where you wish to initiate the process.

If it is from HR Renewal based MSS role , home -> team page application you would have to configure the LPD_CUST entry as documented here Assignment of a Process to PFCG Roles - HR Administrative Services (PA-AS) - SAP Library

If you want to have a direct link in the portal even that is possible. Refer to this discussion https://scn.sap.com/thread/3472875

Hope this helps.

With regards,

Hi Sahir,

Thank you for the reply. I have been trying 1st way from so long.

Able to the setting in lpd_cust, but to complete setup is not yet done because of these issues.

Issues with First approach

1. To do PFCG setting, our Roles Authorisation team dont have required authorisation, so we are checking on same.

2. Another point is once this setup will be done, then how we will be able to trigger the form.

2nd Approach

We have Setup the link in portal as per the thread mentioned by you , but there I have identified one issue. URL paramters (Initiator Role = HRASRB, Process, Process_group) are not being passed to backend class to get the custom processes for Initiator Role (HRASRB) in Process List.

Additionally,

only Processes where Initiator role is mentioned as HRASRA are appearing in Process List.

Also Search Feeder class's(A) method(B) is calling FM(C)

where Role_Context is assigned as HR ADMIN, which interns calling Utilitiy class method(D)

(A) CL_HRASR00_SEARCH_FEEDER

(B) GET_PROCESSES_FOR_PD_OBJECTS

(C) HR_ASR_SELECT_PD_PROCESSES

(D) cl_hrasr00_process_utilities=>get_pd_process_list_for_role

Reason being all we are getting Process only for HRASRA roles.

Can you please help here. If you have any info, related to these missing URL parameters & Launchpad issue

Thank You.

Play around with the parameters for start application ASR_PROCESS_START_OVP

For better understanding refer to the blogs by

One can initiate the process from several places ESS, MSS, HR Admin or even a custom role either from portal , nwbc or UI Landing page.

Hello Sajal,

How did you solve your problem?

Currently we are facing the exact same issue. The parameters PROCESS_GROUP and INITIATOR_ROLE are ignored.

Kind regards,

Allan

Hi Shankar,

Thank You for the reply.

ASR_PROCESS_START_OVP application(Latest application by SAP for FPM form) internally calls ASR_PROCESS_EXECUTE_OVP application. So as per the note this is fine. Something is missing from OADP setting.

Thank You
