Hi,

You can remove it by following ways

Go to SPRO

Then follow following path

Integration with Other mySAP.com Components -> Business Packages / Functional Packages -> Manager Self-Service (mySAP ERP) -> Reporting -> Set Up LaunchPad

and execute

then you can get the list of the REports

over there you can see "Birthday List" Report and Deactivate it

Dear King,

Please execute this steps before the executing the steps i have mentioned above, this will activate the reports used for MSS. Then gofor moving the unwanted reports unactive folder. Just what you have to do it select the unwanted report and move it down to the inactive folder.

1. In the SAP HCM System choose:

SAP Easy Access Menu

Transaction SE38

2. In the ABAP Editor: Initial Screen enter the Program FPB_LP_WRITE_ENTRIES and choose Execute.

3. In the Report FPB_LP_WRITE_ENTRIES screen select the MSS Reporting and MSS with Folders options and deselect the checkbox Test Run.

4. Choose Execute. The sample entries are entered in the Report Launchpad in the portal.

5. Log on to the portal with User manager1 and check if the sample entries are displayed.

6. In the ECC system leave the transaction and go back to the SAP Easy Access Menu.

7. Enter transaction PWPC_CONV_MDT_TO_LPA in the Command field.

8. In the Report to convert MDT table entries to LPA table entries screen, enter the MDT Scenario RPT0 and deselect the Test run checkbox.

9. Choose Execute. The list in the next screen shows the reports which have been added to the Report Launchpad.

Do not forget to select MSS with Folders for the FPB_LP_WRITE_ENTRIES report. Otherwise you may get short dumps while editing the report launchpad, because the reports coming from the Manageru2019s Desktop do not have folders.

Dear Raj,

Thanks for the reply. The procedure given by you is to bring reports into MSS. Now my query is to restrict the reports. I have bought all the reports. Now i want to restrict some of the reports.

You can remove the report by navigating through SPRO like so: Personnel Management --> Manager's Desktop --> Enhancement of Function Codes --> Define Structure of Function Codes

The standard scenario is RPT0 so that is the one you'll want to edit.

If you are only removing one I wouldn't think that is a big problem but if you are doing numerous I suggest making your own scenario and just putting the reports you want in there. It is fairly simple to do by reading the documentation provided at each node. Also, if you do it this way you will have to edit the iView properties and change the Scenario to your custom name.

Hope this helps!

Hello King,

Please follow below steps and infact you choose the report which you want to remove move them to inactive applications folder.

1. In the SAP HCM System choose:

SAP Easy Access Menu Not accessible via menu

Transaction : fpb_launchpad_cust

2. In the Change Customizing of Launchpad you should see the following available reports. These reports have been inserted by default with the reports you have executed in the previous step. You can now define which of these reports you want to make available for the manager and can decided wheather to add further reports:

3. For Best Practices, you should put reports directly in the Inactive Applications folder. They are by default hidden in the application.

Let me know if you still face any issue here.

Regards,

Rajasekar.
