3035059 - Activity report in self service does not show any records for re-hired employees.

Symptom

  • Activity report in self service does not show any records for re-hired employees.
  • Employees were re-hired in new companies as per date XYZ (where XYZ represents a date).
  • The time recording before date XYZ is shown in their time sheets, but when checking the activity report for previous months, no data is available.

Environment

SAP BUSINESS BYDESIGN

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Work Center 'Self Service' of Re-hired Employee.
  2. Check Activity Report
  3. Observe that when checking the activity report for previous months, no data is available.

Cause

  • The Employee Self-Services UI displays only the information pertaining to the current time agreement item, hence the said employee has only visibility of times from the re-hire month onwards.
  • When looking at the Employees ESS Time Sheet now, it is only possible to see the released calendar times in green for the month after being re-hired, which is correct standard behaviour.

Resolution

There are 2 ways to retrieve employee time information which span both time agreement periods:

○ Via the Time Administration work center: After selecting All Employees, both time agreements will be displayed. From there it is possible to see the times prior to the month of when the employee was re-hired.
○ Via the Recorded Employee Times report HCMTLMB07_Q0001 - which would be the best option.

Using the above report, it is possible to search with a number of different search criteria, for example Last Month for 1 or many employees, which will retrieve and display the correct time recording information pertaining to the month prior to the new re-hire.

It is possible to create a custom report to fulfill specific needs.
