Hey,
Organizations today have to be agile. Change has become the new
normal, and traditional learning strategies which are no longer
effective in helping leaders deal with turbulent times. To provide
real, lasting leadership, they must adapt and respond to these
external changes, even when there are unpredictable events or
forces of nature in play. So companies are responding to these
constant changes with a more hands-on approach to executive
training - one that combines experiential learning with focused
business facilitation.
For more details click, the link below:-
http://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/
Experiential learning isn't all that new. On its own, however, this
method is rarely sufficient to drive effective change in leaders.
Participants may feel disconnected from the immediate challenges of
the workplace and revert back to old habits or strategies.

:-Hi, Kora - I believe the data needed would
be in table CATSDB. Your programmer can do this in one step. It's just a
"flag" that you will set on your selection screen to be "true" (1).
First, set a parameter in the query for the number of days you want to go back. I'll call that P_DAYS. It's numeric, no decimals making it integer. This will give you the flexibility to use any number of days, not just the 6 months you need today.
Second, have your ABAPer set up the code in this manner for a new field called FLAG as an integer:
Calculate the date the SELECT will use to determine whether the employee passes or not. That's a new field, with a date format. The programmer can use a LIKE statement. SY-DATUM isinternal system date for today:
DATA: SEL_DATE LIKE SY-DATUM.
From there, calculate the date needed:
SEL_DATE = SY-DATUM - P_DAYS.
That will give a date in the past to use in the select. I'm a little rusty on the select statement itself, but in words, the programmer will select up to 1 row out of the table CATSDB where the personnel number in CATSDB (PERNR) is equal to the current value in your population and where the date of the entry (WORKDATE) is greater than or equal to your new SEL_DATE.
I'm rusty, but it's going to look something like this (please apologize to your ABAPer in advance for me!):
SELECT * FROM CATSDB UP TO 1 ROWS
WHERE PERNR = "your personnel number"
AND WORKDATE >= SEL_DATE.
If the return of that select finds something, then you want the FLAG to be set to true:
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
FLAG = 1.
ELSE.
FLAG = 0.
ENDIF.
I believe this should give you all temps that have had time entered in the last x number of days.
If that specific select doesn't work, tell the ABAPer they can always do the select for that PERNR with an ORDER BY on the WORKDATE field DESCENDING instead of the AND WORKDATE statement. Then, the IF statement would change to seeing whether or not that date value was greater than the SEL_DATE value.
If I've confused you, let me know and I'll reiterate differently.

:-Try using the Time Leveling report, tcode CATC. It allows reporting on teammates with no time recorded
.
:-My understanding of that report is that there has to be a time sheet out there already, just no time on it (or something else missing). But it has to exist. I'm not sure that was the question.
Kora - if you already have time sheets out there but not filled in, that's your answer.
Thanks!
- Lou
:-No, CATC does not require to have data in the timesheets. Run the report with the Time Sheet Selection set to "Select time sheets with no times recorded" will show you those employees with no time.
:-Hi Lou and Mr. Meyers,
CATC is not working in the sense that the output will provide missing weeks between the dates set in in the period. For example, if I am asking for last week ( or day) entered between today and 6 months ago, I will get results including weeks where the temps have only partially entered time. If teh temp has entered time on /2012/May/18 only, I still get in the report the week 2012/05/14 - 2012/05/20. And I believe that this is exactly what CATC is meant to do, unless some other companies are using it differently.
What I am only looking for is at identifying the very last date the time is transferred to PA and compare if the date is more than 6 months from today.
I will also look into ABAP program for this. Thank you Lou for those details. I am sure my ABAP-er will understand better than I do.
Thank you all

:-Hi Expert,
Here we are using two schema in Time Evaluation.
1.ZQTA (its run calendar year)
2.ZSJK(Its run on payroll period which is 21st of previous month to 20th of next month)
How system is determining to different period for two different schema?
Now problem is coming that after run ZQTA when we are running schema ZSJK, IT2006 is showing zero value
:-In table T559L check the quota type whether the increase button is clicked or not. This speaks whether that particular quota should generate in pt60.
Also i dont understand why you need to different schema. Why can't you club the both in same schema and run as per you requirement.
Regards,
Niranjan
:-HI Niranjan,
Thanks for your reply. Mentioned table is properly maintained.
But I don't know how to club this two schema in one schema. can you help me
to do this?
Now problem is coming that after run quota generation schema when we are
running schema(which is related to payroll) then all quotas in IT2006
becomes zero.
waiting your positive reply.
Regards,
Sankarsan
:-What Niranjan is saying that you club the functionalities of both schemasin one schema. This means let us say you want to go with ZQTA, then take the custom PCRs created in ZSJK and insert them in the appropriate place in ZQTA. That way only 1 schema will be used, which is the best practice.
First figure out why the need for 2 schemas. This will give you inputs when merging the schemas.
:-Hi PKverma,
Here payroll integration is present so I think I have to club ZQTA to ZSJK.
But I am not understanding how I will club this two.
Please advise.
Regards,
Sankarsan
:-Hi Sankarsan,
I have faced the same issue when you have positive time management and if
you use ZQTA (copy of TQTA) Then once you run the ZQTA , the quota will
generate properly and but the problem is that when you run the normal time
schema, the quota will become zero in IT2006.Also again if you run with
ZQTA, the system will properly calculate the Quota and same is available
with IT2006.
There is no solution for this problem as i have checked with ABAPer and
gone through the standard programand also checked with SAP. i was not
getting any solution. i have done the same thing what Mr.Niranjan has
already mentioned.
So you need to include all the PCRs mentioned in the schema ZQTA to your
schema ZSJK exactly the place where the Quota function is used.
The problem will get resolved.
Please try the same and let us know the result.
Thanks

The Dunning-Kruger Effect: Why The Incompetent Don’t Know They’re Incompetent
"One of the painful things about our time is that those who feel
certainty are stupid, and those with any imagination and understanding
are filled with doubt and indecision."
The quote above comes from the philosopher Bertrand Russell. Psychological research has now shown he was right.The Dunning-Kruger effect is the finding that the poorest performers are the least aware of their own incompetence. The effect has been:
"...replicated among undergraduates completing a classroom exam (Dunning, Johnson, Ehrlinger, & Kruger, 2003), medical students assessing their interviewing skills (Hodges, Regehr, & Martin, 2001) clerks evaluating their performance (Edwards, Kellner, Sistrom, & Magyari, 2003), and medical lab technicians evaluating their on-the-job expertise (Haun, Zeringue, Leach, & Foley, 2000)." (From Ehrlinger et al., 2008)The reason seems to be that poor performers fail to learn from their mistakes.
The proposed solution is that the incompetent should be directly told they are incompetent.
Unfortunately the problem is that incompetent people have probably been getting this type of feedback for years and failed to take much notice. Despite failing exams, messing up at work and irritating other people, the incompetent still don't believe they're incompetent.
As Socrates once said:
"The only true wisdom is to know that you know nothing."But even this can go too far. It turns out that people with real talent tend to underestimate just how good they are. The root of this bias is that clever people tend to assume other people find things as easy as they do, when actually this is their talent shining through (read on: The Worse-Than-Average Effect: When You’re Better Than You Think).

11 Goal Hacks: How to Achieve Anything
Goal-setting research on fantasising, visualisation, goal commitment, procrastination, the dark side of goal-setting and more...
We're all familiar with the nuts and bolts of goal-setting. We should
set specific, challenging goals, use rewards, record progress and make
public commitments (if you're not familiar with these then check out
this article on how to reach life goals).So how come we still fail?
This psychological research suggests why and what mindsets should help us reach our goals.
1. Stop fantasising
The biggest enemy of any goal is excessive positive fantasising. Research on fantasising in goal-setting shows that positive fantasies are associated with failure to get a job, find a partner, pass an exam or get through surgery. Those whose fantasies were more negative did better. Don't experience the future positively before you achieve it.2. Start committing
The reason we don't achieve our goals is lack of commitment.One powerful psychological technique to increase commitment is mental contrasting. This involves entertaining a positive fantasy but then pouring a bucket of cold reality over it (follow this link for the details). It's hard, but research shows people really respond to it.
3. Start starting
You can use the Zeigarnik effect to drag you on towards your goal. A Russian psychologist, Bluma Zeigarnik, noticed that waiters seemed only to remember orders which were in the process of being served. When completed, the orders evaporated from their memory.What the Zeigarnik effect teaches is that one weapon for beating procrastination is starting somewhere...anywhere. Just taking that first step could be the difference between failure and success. Once you've started, the goal will get lodged in your mind.
4. Visualise process NOT outcome
We're all susceptible to the planning fallacy: that's thinking all will go smoothly when it won't (and hardly ever does). Visualising the process of reaching your goal, helps focus attention on the steps you need to take. It also helps reduce anxiety.5. Avoid the what-the-hell effect
When we miss our target, we can fall foul of the what-the-hell-effect. It's best known to dieters who go over their daily calorie limit. Reasoning the target is now gone, they think 'what-the-hell', and start eating too much of all the wrong food.Goals that are vulnerable to the what-the-hell-effect are generally short-term and inhibitional (when you're trying to stop doing something). The effect can be avoided by setting goals that are long-term and acquisitional. Find out more about the what-the-hell effect.
6. Sidestep procrastination
When goals are difficult and we wonder whether it's really worth it, procrastination can creep up on us. Under these circumstances the key is to forget about the goal and bury yourself in the details. Keep your head down and use self-imposed deadlines (read more on how to avoid procrastination).7. Shifting focus
You can't keep your head down all the way or you'll get lost. In the long-term, the key to reaching a goal is switching between a focus on the ultimate goal and the task you are currently completing. Research suggests, when evaluating progress, especially on difficult tasks, it's best to stay task-focused. But when tasks are easy or the end is in site, it's better to focus on the ultimate goal (read more on how to shift focus).8. Reject robotic behaviour
Often our behaviour is robotic. We do things not because we've really thought about it, but because it's a habit or we're unconsciously copying other people (e.g. Bargh et al., 2001). This type of behaviour can be an enemy of goal striving. Ask yourself whether what you are doing is really getting you closer to your goal.9. Forget the goal, what's the aim?
Goals should always be set in the service of our overall aims. But there's a dark side to goal setting. When goals are too specific, it's easy to get stuck; when they are too many goals, unimportant, easy ones get prioritised over vital, difficult ones; when they are too short-term, they encourage short-term thinking. Badly set goals reduce motivation and may increase unethical behaviour.Remember to keep in mind the whole point of the goal in the first place.
10. Know when to stop
Sometimes the problem isn't getting started, it's knowing when to stop. Psychologists have found that sunk costs make us do weird things (Arkes & Blumer, 1985). 'Sunk costs' refer to the effort or money we've already expended in trying to reach our goal. So, even when our plan is failing, we keep pushing on.Research shows that the more people invest in a goal, the more they think it will succeed; irrespective of whether it actually will succeed. Know when to change tack or you'll end up flogging a dead horse.
11. If-then plans
What all these studies show is the importance of self-regulation in achieving a goal. Unfortunately, as we all know to our cost, controlling the self can be very hard.One strategy with plenty of research to back it up is forming 'if-then' plans (Gollwitzer et al., 2006). You simply work out in advance what you're going to do in a particular situation. Although it sounds simple, we often prefer to wing it, rather than plan. With a little ingenuity, though, if-then plans can be used to surmount the obstacles described above.

:-Hi everyone,
This is crazy and I have never seen before. Therefore, if you can help me it will be greatly appreciated. We use PO13 / PP01 to maintain the Workers Comp code at the position level. We already have a record, and would like to delimit that and add a new record with a new workers comp state and code. The system is not allowing me. It is essentially overriding the old record. Moreover, the State and code is grayed out.
Not sure if any of you have cracked the code to maintain the WC using PP01 / PO13. I tried using V_T5U28 but received the message that production system is 'not modifiable'. I guess I need to apply OSS note 123383.
If anyone can help me on this, it will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you / Thank you / Thank you

:-We are having an issue where a Public holiday is not been processed as a paid absence in time evaluation. the public holiday is in the holiday calendar and the target hours on the timesheet is zero as expected. the only issue i am having is the payment of the public holidays.
What am i missing?
thanks
:-In T code: scal under holiday types check the holiday class. Probably you might have missed to maintain it.
Regards,
Niranjan.
:-Hi Clive,
Holiday class is maintained in PT02. Use this t-code to ensure that you have maintained the day type as off/paid. You can also use t-code PT63 to check the day type is maintained correctly for the employees' work schedule.
Hope this helps.
Rgds,

:-thanks for that, i have checked scal and the holiday class is 1. i think the issue is that a S is appearing in the TIP of time evaluation instead of X which means attendance on public hliday. how and where can i switch this code?
thanks

:-It may be due to day type selection rule used.

 | Orey Antunes |
| Founded in 1886, the Orey Group has a business tradition dating back over more than a century. Throughout its long history it has gone through countless economic cycles and sundry phases of social and political life, both in Portugal and abroad. Since it was set up, its management has been in the hands of the Orey family, now the fourth generation. In recent years the Group had been successful in making its management more professional, both at subsidiary level and within the board of directors itself, adopting best management practices, instilling dynamics of change and defining strategic guidelines for given time frames. During 2009 the Group made a start to a process of strategic repositioning and now stands in the marketplace as an investment holding company. This new situation lends sequence to the strategic plan with a view to focusing the Group´s business on the financial area, managing the Group´s traditional business areas (shipping, transport and logistics, and technical representations) through a private equity fund, in turn managed by the Group´s financial area. To this end, a private equity fund is being set up under the name Orey Capital partners. The aim is for it to acquire the non-financial companies, particularly those linked to the traditional business areas of shipping and technical representations, and also to invest in new opportunities to acquire similar companies. | |
