problem with approving a leave request in ptarq test application

[Former Member]

Hi all,

i m using ECC6.0.

1/i m testing first the ptarq ( code transaction for ess employee self-service), but i have these problems, i do not understand how to create a leave request correctly , i have succeed in create in for the same employee that works with (ex 70046 = pernr ), i need to understand the logic of the creation first.

2/ before two days , i was able to create a leave request in ( ptarq ( code transaction -> test application ) but when i create it , it s allready having the status approved.

3/ so i decide to create leave request of course with different enddate end begdate of absence for the same employee wich is ( 70046 = pernr, infotype= 2001 , subtype =240 ), and i was able ti change the status of the leave request from being 'sent' to 'approved' via MF pt_arq_request_execute.

4/ but now i just can't approve neither via test application (ptarq) or via mf .

N.B:

i didn't to become the manager of the concerned employee cz when i enter to approve via ptarq , it displays for me the reequest concerning my profil but even thoug when i chose one document to be approved it take a long time and it's not responding anymore or it's gives me a message said that the doc is locked ,

and even throug the mf 'pt_arq_request_PREPARE it's given me 'ex_data_only_read = X' and error which said that doc is bloqued and with mf 'pt_arq_request_EXECUTE it's just telling me to precise the CLASS NAME .

there is the content of es_messages output of excute mf.

T = E

ID = WF_CONT

NUM = 065

MESSAGE = Indicate the name of the class

Thank u in advance.

Hi Merry,

As far as i know , to ceate a leave request u have to run a cycle of executing 3 bapis

a) PT_ARQ_REQUEST_PREPARE to prepare a leave request.

b) PT_ARQ_REQUEST_CHECK - This checks wether the leave requested is possible according to the

Leave HR configurations (input to this bapi should be the output you get from the 1st bapi).

c) PT_ARQ_REQUEST_EXECUTE- This finally creates a leave request.

(input to this bapi should be the output you get from the 2nd bapi).

(Execute all the bapis using mode "R".)

I have used this approach in webdynpro java to create a leave request. Hope this approach works for you also.

thank u asha for ur answer,

but i have here a question , why there is no command for the MF check concerning 'check_reject' , ??

and mon problem here is that these MF dosen't executed and i have error that tell me that 'doc is locked' and that 'update of doc (leave request) was interrupted .

moreover , iwhen i try with the transaction 'PTARQ' , i can't no more create a leave request neither approve it from test application 'ptarq' ?? and it's related to some parameter 'lock_indicator' which if it's equal to X it doesn't change the status of my leave request from 'SENT' to 'APPROVED' .?? could u send me ur code that make update of the status of the leave request ?

N.B: Also if u see the program test ' RPTARQUIATEST ' u ganna find that they call the MFs in that order :

1/ pt_arq_request_prepare

2/ pt_arq_request_execute

3/ pt_arq_request_check

???

Hi Merry..

Sorry for the late reply..

I have implemented this module in webdynpro java using the STD SAP code.

All the three Bapis are executed in "R" mode while requesting and in "A" mode while approving a request.

I dint get what exactly ur question is..

Did you get the solution for ur question??

If yes pls do let me know..

Thanks and regards
