BOR - How to instantiate EMPLOYEEI, EMPLOYEESU, ABSENCE, etc

[Vinod Viswanathan]

Hi all,
 
I have tried posting this query in sdn.sap in several places many times. But I have been continuously unsuccessful in obtaining a solution.
 
Also tried sending personal mails to several friends of mine, they donot know the solution.  
 
Then I saw this group and thought, this is the best to post my query.

I would be extremely grateful if anyone could help me with the same:-

1. I am using Programming exits in my workflow step.

2. This step is linked to a Standard task that calls an OO method(courtesy: Jocelyn's blog on sdn:- IF_WORKFLOW interface)

3. My ABAP method fetches the workflow container values directly as the container data is too huge to be bound.

4. WF container data is fetched and required master tables are updated successfully(MM in this case).

5. But my workflow errors displaying the message "the OO Method XYZ could not be executed". 

6. The most interesting thing is:- The error persists even if i comment the whole code in the OO Method. 

7. Am i going wrong anywhere??? Please help...

This is a problem that is lingering around me for a month now... I need the solution very badly...

Thanks a million in advance,

Best Regards,

Vinod Viswanathan

Well Cristina, If you are on ECC 6.0  how about... ditching the BOR altogether and creating ABAP OO classess instead of BOR object types.  You can then call HR_READ_INFOTYPE or the equivalent BAPI where available (e.g. BAPI_EMPLOYEE_GETDATA, BAPI_EMPLCOMM_GETDETAILEDLIST) from your class, completely control whether HR Structural authorisation is used or not, and not have to deal with a whole heap of historical red herrings from EMPLOYEET and BUS1065. 
 
Cristina I know you are an ABAP-er - read my blogs on ABAP OO for Workflow and you will find it is very simple to put a class together quickly. 
 
Regards,
Jocelyn

Hello Jocelyn, 

I changed it as you suggested, logged out, logged on again and still get the message 'Object does not exist'. 

We are on ECC 6.0 

Any other ideas? My new object was created by copying from EMPLOYEESU (just like we did at Dept of Housing - gee that was sooooo long ago!) - I generated the object, saved, refreshed buffers, the works. 

Cheers,

Cristiana

Cristina, Check HR structural authorizations aren't killing you.  Put yourself in table T77UA with profile ALL.

Hi all, 

i am sure this is something silly that I might be forgetting to do... 

Several of the HR Objects have the following key: 
Personnel number 
Subtype 
Object ID 
Lock indicator 
To 
>From 
Record number 

I have created a new object type to represent Infotype 0019 and set the key as above. I checked table PA0019 and entered the appropriated values in the attributes when I tried to Create Instance via SWO1. 

I am in SWO1 and trying to 'test' the new object type but not getting anywhere. I then tried to instantiate the SAP delivered ones (i.e. EMPLOYEEI, EMPLOYEESU, ABSENCE) and getting nowhere as well. 

Any ideas on what I might be missing? 

Sorry if this is a silly question & thanks for any help! 

Cheers

Cristiana
