EmployeeSearch: integrate other webdynpro ABAP iview

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

According to OSS 1112733 MSS Employee Profile: Integrating other iView (https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1112733), you can add other iViews to this Webdynpro Page (General Info for example) and when you click an employee you can catch the event subscribed selection_changed.

When you are accessing this page it is loaded info for a certain employee. Which are the criterias for loading this first employee? I need this information because I need to show my custom iview with the information regarding the employee that the system as already loaded for the standard iViews.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

AS

You can include the iviews as indicated here too

https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=118423928

You can read here

call function 'HR_ASR_WDA_GET_EMPLOYEE'

exporting

id = 'MSS01' "ABAP Memory ID To get the PERNR Selected.

importing

pernr = gv_pernr.

Hi Siddarth,

Thanks for your reply. I successfully added the new iview Webdynpro ABAP into to a new page where I added General Info WDJ standard page and my custom application is getting the subscribed event selection_changed and the PERNR on the parameter.

However FM 'HR_ASR_WDA_GET_EMPLOYEE' is not working for getting the first and automatically selected employee by defaut (PERNR is always initial) . Moreover when I try to do get PERNR using SE37 it also gives me an initial PERNR.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Siddhart,

Thanks for your reply.

I read this document but I didn't find out how to get the first employee that is automatically selected by the system.

To be clear I am showing you a screenshot of my issue. When this general info page is accessed one employee is automatically selected.

http://screencast.com/t/bBoNrhE8AlC

My custom application is working fine as soon as you click on one employee because I am getting the employee using the selection_changed event that is triggered once you click one employee.

Do you have any hints about how I could get this automatically selected employee?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

AS

I can see the employee details below?

You mean the application should come loaded with the employee selected?

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Yes I do.

When you go to General Info standard page the system loads automatically info from one employee of the employeesearch list. To show the corresponding information for my customer iView I need to know the selection criteria that system is using for getting this first and automatically selected employee. This is only the remaining issue that I have to include my custom WD ABAP iView in this page.

Remaining screenshots:

http://screencast.com/t/PYw1DfgTV (custom iView loaded after selecting one employee on the table. It is initially loaded with no information because I didn't find out yet how to determine the first and automatically selected employee)

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

AS

in the note above it said to do this

1) Create a new default portal page (must NOT be of type WD Pagebuilder

page)

2) Add the existing MSS employee profile portal page to this new page.

3) Add your new iView to the new page.

Now the exchange of events between the MSS employee search and your new

iView should work."

There are several factors that would influence the event working

mechanism. We kindly request you to check the following notes that would

help in troubleshooting the issue:

- 945516 WD ABAP in the portal environment

- 1225587 WD ABAP with load balancing in the Enterprise Portal

Please follow the recommendations in the note 945516.

Thanks Siddhart.

Sorry I think you are misunderstanding my issue. I have read this SAP note and I successfully integrated the iView. I just need to get the automatically selected employee.

Actually I have the same issue that this guy is reporting on his SDN post (unfortunatelly this post as no answers).

Quoting:

"

Hi,

I have added WDA Application iView that will live on the MSS TeamViewer page and subscribe to employee search events loading data in response to those events. Iu2019m using a SAP note -- https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1112733 -- with Portal Eventing code to subscribe: Portal eventing is working fine.

subscribe_to_event("urn:com.sap.mss.employeesearch",

EVENT = "selection_changed",

PROBLEM: I get the event only when manually selecting an employee. I do not get the event when the page first loads and the first employee is displayed. I only get the event when an employee is manually selected in the Employee Search list. I also need an event for the loading of the page for when the first employee is loaded. Is there any other event for the page initialization that passes pernr? If so, what are the specs on the event?

Thanks in advance,

Ankur

Dear all,

I found out that SAP is selecting the first employee with the lowest position ID. I build up a new FM to get this first employee and now it is working fine. Thanks anyway for your cooperation.

Best,

Solved. Solution explained on this topic.

[siddharthrajora]

Thanks a lot, SIddharth

Hi all.

I have now the same problem that André Sousa had with this issue. I've tried using FM HR_ASR_WDA_GET_EMPLOYEE to get the employee selected on search list but it doesn't work; and I cannot use the solution provided by André since my system hasn't ZMSSDIR evaluation path.

Does anybody know a solution to get the selected employee PERNR in a ZWDA??

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

If we use EPCF eventing, its the drawback, we will loose the initial event when we load the foarm.

So that is the reason why SAP came up FcObjectSelection dc, we need use this DCas used DC and get the selection value from the team viewer. This is for WDJ.

https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/profile/How-toaddacustomWebDynproiViewtotheMSSEmployeeProfile%28ECC+6.0%29

I am not sure what is the equivalent for it in WDA. Might be u can try to look at the other similar kind of WDA apps.
