[Talent Management] iView 'Talent Profile'

[guillaume-hrc]

Hi,

In EhP 4, I have a strange behaviour with a Talent Management iView that calls the HRTMC_EMPLOYEE_PROFILE Web Dynpro ABAP application.

If I launch it from the standard Employee Self-Service role, it works fine (although from time to time I still get the error I am going to describe).

As I am designing a custom Employee Self-Service role, I copied with delta-link the page and its iView and embed it (still delta-linked) in my custom role. Besides, I have created a custom configuration (with only 4 of the tabs) that I need to use and thus specify in the iView parameters.

When launched from my custom role, I get:

The ASSERT condition was violated

If I check in ST22, I found out that the MEM_ID parameter is not set ! (and the OSS note [1283279|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1283279] is implemented because we are in 7.01 SP03 / EA-HR 604 SP08)

Do you have any idea about what is going on (MEM_ID got lost or is never set or ...) ?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Guillaum

Just been struck by light...

Actually, the link in ESS relies on an ABAP Proxy for launching the iView. In this ABAP proxy (CL_HRTMC_PROXY_TALENT_PROFILE), the MEM_ID parameter is set so that the Web Dynpro ABAP application can use it.

But, it is set only when the link is displayed in the ESS area/subarea page !

I don't have a clue how to call this particular proxy in a scenario where I do not want to display an area/subarea page with links but give direct access to the Talent Profile iView...

To me, it makes very difficult the reuse of this iView.

Guillame,

may be you can debug this method IF_XSS_SER_PROXY_SERVICE~SET_CONTEXT_PARAMETERS in CL_HRTMC_PROXY_TALENT_PROFILE and write an implicit enhancment

Hi,

You mean write an Enhancement in the Web Dynpro ABAP application (which is not trivial - to me at least - since it relies on FPM) ?

Another idea I got is to set an handler on the ICF service for Web Dynpro ABAP application HRTMC_EMPLOYEE_PROFILE so that the ABAP Proxy is called first and a call to the super Handler (Web Dynpro) is done after.

Update 21-01-2010

Looks a lot like Chain-Of-Responsibility Design pattern to me !

Best regards,

Guillaume

Developped my own version of RPTMC_PROFILE_LAUNCHER for this
