new track for custom ess applications

[Former Member]

HI Everyone,

We are doing enhancements to standard ESS iviews, like personal data,employee search,etc for this we created new track and we imported .sca files compatible to ess 60.2 business package.along with this we have some custom applications which has to create from the scratch,and these applications we have to give it to ess role.

I would like to know whether i need to create seperate track for these custom applications,or can i use same track which contains all standard ess DCs ..I would like to know how to acheive this,if someone have done previously ,please let me know .

Thanks in advance

Hi Vinay,

for this I would say one track is sufficient. You can have both the sap delivered ESS dc's and your custom ESS dc's in a single track. Even during the upgrade it wouldnot affect your custom DCs because the namespace will be different. During the upgrade, only the DCs with namespace sap.com will be upgraded. Since your custom DC's will have a different namespace, that should be fine.

I would recommend creating a single track for both since both are related to Employee Self Servives Role.

Hope this helps.

Hi Vinay,

We can use the existing ESS track for that or we can create a new track.

I prefer using a new track because, during upgrades these new DC's need to be considered so that they are not lost after upgrade.

Thank you,

HI Nagaraju,

Thanks for your quick response.

I think ur right,we have to create new track ,becasuse while upgrade it is very easy to maintain.

You have done anything like this before,if so can u explain what are the prerequisites for creating new track,because i never created tracks,i created track for ESS ,i followed the NWDI cookbook for this,but i have to create now new track for my cusotm ess applications.

Thanks,

Hi Vinay,

Create a track with JTech, Jee, BUILDT and new software component.

If you want to use FPM in that then use PCUI GP.

Same as ESS track without ESS SC you will have a custom SC.

Make sure to define dependencies for new software component accordingly.

Hi Vinay,

I prefer, you can go ahead with existing track. You can have both SAP standard DC's and Custom DC's in a single track. Even during the upgrade it wouldnot affect your custom DCs because the namespace will be different. During the upgrade, only the DCs with namespace sap.com will be upgraded.

Create a new product (P) with different namespace in the existing track and create required software components (SC's - Ex: xxxCompany.com_xxx_ESS) to that product.

When you improt corresponding track into your NWDS, You can see newly created SC's.

Once import done, You can ready to create custom webdynpro DC's.

Please follow the steps to create custom webdynpro application using FPM.
