Customizing standard MSS Employee Search (Web Dynpro Java)

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

Currently I am working on EP 7.0, and we have some requirements on MSS Employee Search.

Based on SAP help:

Technical Names of iViews : com.sap.pct.erp.mss.employeesearch_geinfo

Technical Names of Web Dynpro Applications : sap.com/mss~eepro/GeneralInformation

So downloaded package mss_eeprosap.com through NWDI, and opened in NWDS.

There are 3 applications there:

com.sap.xss.hr.eeprofile.GeneralInformation

com.sap.xss.hr.eeprofile.CompensationInformation

com.sap.xss.hr.eeprofile.PersonnelDevelopment

and 2 Components:

CEmployeeProfile_1Comp

CEmployeeProfileAllComp

but there is no views inside these 2 components which contains the screen layout.(E.g: Dropdown list for Employee Selection, Input fields for Last name, Personal Number, Personal area, etc)

How can I identify which package contains the screen layout for employee search?

Thanks a lot.

Feng,

This is based on Object and Data Provider(OADP) concept.

Go to SPRO-Integration with Other mySAP.com Components-Business Packages/Functional Packages-Manager Self-Service(mySAP ERP)-Object and Data Provider-Object Provider/Data Provider

Read the documentation of subnodes in Object Provider and Data Provider and you will get more details

check this link

you will get details on OADP but main topic may not be relevant in that link

Thanks

currently our project has a requirement to modify Employee Search iview: When user select one Org Unit, We need to have a button under the table which contains the users.

We imported package mss_tmvsap.com and found that it is using OADP screen.

Thus we imported pcui_gp_oadpsap.com, we feel View "DataViewView" is the view that contains the user table, so I simply added one textview there, then deploy to server.

Then I run Employee Search, it is giving error

java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sap.xss.ser.oadp.java.OADPObject incompatible with com.sap.xss.ser.oadp.java.OADPObject

at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.VTeamViewerComp.onBeforeOutput(VTeamViewerComp.java:303)

at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.wdp.InternalVTeamViewerComp.onBeforeOutput(InternalVTeamViewerComp.java:210)

at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.VTeamViewerCompInterface.onBeforeOutput(VTeamViewerCompInterface.java:144)

at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.wdp.InternalVTeamViewerCompInterface.onBeforeOutput(InternalVTeamViewerCompInterface.java:136)

at com.sap.xss.hr.tmv.vac.wdp.InternalVTeamViewerCompInterface$External.onBeforeOutput(InternalVTeamViewerCompInterface.java:212)

Then i removed that textview, deploy again, still it has this problem.

Any help?

Thanks with rewarding points!
