MSS Team - On Behalf of Applications

[Former Member]

Dear Friends

I'm unable to Access On-Behalf of Applications in MSS Team page, whilst I can't proceed further when i click on the Icon under employee profile.

kindly let me know what need to be done..

2) I've a question here to raise again. currently we are not following approvals based on OM reporting structure. we are dealing with Z table where I've maintained custom reporting structure. In such case.. If my reporting manager applies Leave/Travel request on behalf of me.. will it fetch the manger inside the Z-table maintained???

Kindly provide me ur valuable suggestions

Cheers

Hi Pradyp,

The one that was marked / highlighted by you is not On-behalf of Employee. That is employee menu, refer below:

Role: MSS

Instance:  EMPLOYEE_MENU

On-behalf is a part of Employee Menu.

Please check the above in LPD_CUST and make sure that you have assigned the same as shown below in Org.Chart Visualiation for MSSBIZVIEW:

Please maintain the same for all 4 Navigation Field Groups (Organizational, Communication, Talent, Compensation).

And let us know the result.

All the best,

Srikanth Naidu. Akula

Dear Srikanth

I've checked the Hierarchy Overview with all the 4 combinations like u said

Hierarchy Name: MSSBIZVIEW

Structure Name: MSS_EMP_HIER

Navigation Field Group:   MSS_TMV_BIZ_EOR (Organizational)

                                         MSS_TMV_BIZ_ESL   (Compensation)

                                         MSS_TMV_BIZ_ETL   (Talent)

                                         MSS_TMV_BIZ_NAV  (Communication)

where-in for all these 4 Navigation field groups the Role & Instance have already been assigned by default.

Moreover, the one which I've highlighted is Employee Menu..Agreed!!! but my understanding was after clicking the Icon we can avail the services of On-behalf of Applications.. Correct me if I'm wrong..

Await for few more Ideas/solutions...

Was it working earlier and stopped working after some patch or something?

Also can you check if you need to activate any business function or switch which will facilitate the on behalf applications?

Check the LPD_CUST for above role & instance:

Check in Extras, you have both SAP & Customer versions. If you have them properly.

Then check the Org.Chart.Visualization (Transported / Customer) Table for the same.

hi ,

can u click refresh the team once on top once and chk ....

[Former Member]

Hi,

I had the same issue,in some system I was not able to access On-behalf of application with IE.

Try with Mozilla Firefox. Also check applications are active in MSS-Employee Menu in LPD_CUST.

2) If you apply Leave/Travel request from on behalf of employee, it will fetch the same approver which you have used for ESS like maintaining in the custom tables/Rules or BADI.

I'm glad that the workflow will be functioning as anticipated. I knew the same will happen.. but still I had a doubt in my mind. Thanx for clearing it...

Await for ur valuable Inputs..
