Source Code for Employee Self-Service (ESS)

[Former Member]

Hi,

Does anyone know where I can get the source code for ESS? I need to be able to customize some of the ESS iviews.

Thanks

Hi Basant,

You need to set up JDI in place to access and change Standard ESS. Please search fro JDI cook book in notes. You can download it from service market place. This will illustrate how to set up and use JDI.

You need Webdynpro developer to change the code.

Hope this helps.

Sudhir,

That helps me a little. I got the installation guide for JDI. It states that I need to install SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio first.

So assuming I install the above two components, how do I then get access to the ESS source code so that I can modify and re-deploy the code?

Thanks,

Hi basant,

Here i am providing u the detail in step by step.

1 . Identify the Fn nodule your iview pointing to .

2 . Get the name of IAC property in EP ( it's a transaction )

3. Go to sm30->t77www_sc ..type the IAC and find out which fn module it's pointing to.

4 .Copy the trans & fn mod.

5.Modify the Screen in the Fn mod.

6. Create a new entry in the view <b>t77www_sc.</b>

7. Create an Iview in EP and give the newly created IAC name .

Hope it helps .

Jothi,

How do you identify the "Fn module your iview is pointing to"?

Also let me know if my understanding is correct. I know you can change the ESS modules via the Java WebDynpro

source code. What you are saying is that we can also change it via the backend (which is what you have described). How do I know if I need to change the backend code or the WebDynpro code or both?

Thanks,

Basant

Basanth,

Which ESS iview u r supposed to change ? If it's Personal data. The IAC of that iview is <b> PZ13 </b> .

Go to Table view <b> t77www_sc </b> in SM30.

Ther u can find the fn module it points to with default check. If u go to that fn module, u can see the "CALL SCREEN " . This the screen u r seeing in ESS.Modify it accordingly.

Create a new transaction in the above table view and refer to the modified fn module.

Hope it hepls.

Jothi,

What version of ESS are you talking about? I'm using ESS 60.2. Somebody told me that what you're describing is for the older version of ESS (the one with ITS). Is that correct?

Thanks,
