MSS Absence Overview Calendar

Former Member
0 Kudos

We have a customer who has raised the following issue with the Absence Calendar in MSS. "

The calendar in MSS highlights days off for employees in the same color as weekend days. Therefore, it is hard to see which days are leave days and which are weekend days for employees who do not work a regular Monday to Friday schedule. Days off and weekend days need to be different colors. - I have asked them to confirm if they want leave, regardless of what the leave type is, to be in one colour e.g. holiday, special paid leave etc, non working days in another colour and working days when they are not absent in another colour. Can you quote assuming the above is correct?"

We approached a consultancy firm about this and they told us this would be very expensive to do as it need to distinguish be between employees' working, non-working and absence days will be colour coded using a customer maintained table for absence types and work schedule rules.

Has anyone else done anything like this? If so, what approach did you take? They are quite insistent that they want it but don't really want to have to pay that much for it.

Thanks

Hannah

Can you confirm how I would check this - we are still very new to the portal and the consultants that implemented it for us are now long gone and didn't leave us feeling very confident with it?

I did check before under attendance but there doesn't seem to be anything like this. We're on ERP 2004.

Thanks for your help anyway.

I think I asked the wrong person, I have the following details now:

BP ESS v 60.2 SP 0 PL 0

BP MSS v 60.1 SP 1 PL 0

Does this look about right?

in spro there is setting that can solve this issue....

follow the path in transaction spro

integration with other mysap components->business packages/ functional packages->manger self service(mysap ERP)->working time->BAdI: Control Processing of Leave Requests

here you will find documentation if you click on the following link

1. Adjust Colors of Calendar and Team Calendar

2. Adjust Color for Overlapping Absences

you have 16 colors to choose from i guess... i think point 2 is of good help to you....

this is simple to achieve and not much work...

Thanks for your reply. However, I get as far as Manager's Self Service (mysap ERP) and then I cannot find the rest. I am on EP6.
