How To Enable Approval For SIT EIT
How To Enable Approval For SIT EIT
HRMS.
Bydefault when you submit a transaction using ‘Extra Information’ (EIT) or ‘Special Information’ (SIT)
function from self service it does not go for Approval. Using workflow builder you have to modify the
workflow process (HR_EIT_JSP_PRC for EIT and HR_SIT_JSP_PRC for SIT) to enable the approval process.
This document provides step-by-step information, showing how to enable approval for these two
processes.
Any time you apply a patch (if the patch updates the seeded HRSSA workflow, the patch will overwirte
the changes that enable approval), you have to redo these steps or you can duplicate HR_EIT_JSP_PRC
and HR_SIT_JSP_PRC and give a new name so that the patch will not overwrite the changes. If you use
the duplicate the process then please make sure the call these duplicated process from the SSHR
function call too.
Example: If you apply a new HRMS Family pack patch the seeded workflow process will be overwritten.
You will need workflow builder to make these changes. If you have not installed workflow builder already
installed then please follow Note: 261028.1 Title: 11i - 12 How To Download and Install the Latest Oracle
Workflow Builder (Client Tool) and XML Gateway Message Designer for E-Business Suite , to install the
workflow builder in your local machine.
Seeded Menu and function parameter details that is called from ‘Employee Self-Service’ responisbility
for SIT and EIT.
Click on ‘Special Information Types’ function name – this is to check the parameters used for this
function call.
The above screen shot shows the parametes used for the function call.
pAMETranType=SSHRMS indicates the AME transaction type used for the function.
pProcessName=HR_SIT_JSP_PRC&pItemType=HRSSA shows the workflow process name and item type is
HRSSA.
Step3: Search for HR_SIT_JSP_PRC (in case of Special Information or SIT) or HR_EIT_JSP_PRC (in case of
Extra Information or EIT)
Step4: Double click on the HR_SIT_JSP_PRC process or HR_EIT_JSP_PRC process depending on the
function.
Step7: Change the Value from No to ‘Yes – Dynamic Approval’ (if you are using AME for Approval), click
Apply button. Next click OK button.
Step8: Save the Changes to the database.
Note: You can also use following command from the command line to upload a .wft file
Example:
After modifying the HRSSA using workflow builder, click File -> Save As
Give a new name (d:\HSSA_24Sep2014_modified.wft), Save. (Again this can be any name of your
choice).
ftp the file the Unix/Linux (Let’s say you ftp the file to /usr/tmp/HSSA_24Sep2014_modified.wft) . Please
make sure to ftp the file in binary mode.
WFLOAD apps 0 Y UPLOAD /usr/tmp/HSSA_24Sep2014_modified.wft
This above command will upload the HRSSA workflow to the database.
Step9: Bounce the Apache. Now this will show approvers in the review page (you can also add Adhoc
Approvers in the review page after this if you are using AME for Approval setup).
IMPORTANT: Always make sure to take back of workflow before making any changes and test in non-
production instance before deploying in production instance.
