Rule Groups in Record Working Time- Differnt attendances for different emp

[Former Member]

I have a requirement. I have 2 different set of employees Salaried and Hourly. In record working time these 2 different set of employees should have differnt set of attendance types in the drop down. I know in Leave request this can be achieved via Rule Groups and WEBMO, but how do I do the same in Record working Time?

In record working time, you can make use only ESG and PSG grouping as in table T554s., There is no rule group

Otherwise you can have checks implemented in CATS0003 or CATS0002 to throw an error messahe if the A/Att type is not allowed for a particular employee

Hi Siddharth,

thanks for that reply. Unfortunately T554S does have PSG as a parameter and not ESG which I am looking for actually. Anyways will see how this can be done via UEs. Authorization I think I can achieve this but only issue will be every1 will be able to see each and every attendance type and then if someone tries to apply, he/she will get an error msg. This might not be a very user friendly approach actually. Anyways only option that remains is UE which I will check

thanks

I can recommend better to use User exits or build a custom search help or a check depending upon employees criteria

Now in CATS WD as you are aware uses different search help

ie CLASS CL_XSS_CAT_RFC_COMMAND_TOOLS method BUILD_F4_HELP

SAPLHRXSS_CAT_WEBDYNP / LHRXSS_CAT_WEBDYNPU02

FUNCTION / HRXSS_CAT_WD_F4_AWART

This would be straight forward. Using authorisation would be tough to implement

Thanks Siddharth! Will try this

I feel I can do this by authorization, but is this the only way? Is Rule Group not applicable here in Record Working Time at all?
