Required Business Function HCM_ESS_WDA

Employees can use this service to request leave, or other absences or attendances. They can
also use this service for absences that do not require approval, for example, sick leave, to
inform their manager that they will be absent for a certain time period. Employees can change
or delete submitted leave requests or absences that have already been stored in the database,
if necessary.

If the concurrent employment functionality has been activated, employees can record or edit
a leave for the relevant personnel assignment when they start the application.

Integration
  The Leave Request application includes the following tasks:

 Creation of leave request by employee

 Forwarding leave request to manager for approval

 Controlling the deletion and cancellation processes

The interfaces used by employees and managers when they process leave requests are
WebDynpro ABAP applications that belong to Employee Self-Service (ESS) and Manager
Self-Service (MSS).

 The Leave Request application includes the following services that are tailored to the
needs of employees and managers, and provide practical contextual information:

 Create Leave Request: The service for employees who want to request,
change, or cancel leave.

Note

You can use this function only if your employees enter their
own leave requests in Employee Self-Service. It is not suitable if you have
time administrators record absences.

 Approve Leave Request: The service for managers who want to approve
the leave requests.

Note

You do not have to implement this service. Alternatively, you can use a simple
backend report.

 Your employees can use the Create Leave Request service to request both absences
(infotype 2001) and attendances (infotype 2002). You can also process records of
the Attendances infotype (2002) that have the quality of an absence in your company,
such as training courses.

 The Leave Request application has automatic control of the processing process. You
can make Customizing settings for groups of employees to control aspects such as:

 Which absence and attendance types employees are permitted to request.

  The periods before and after an absence during which employees are permitted
to request leave in advance or retroactively. You can define different periods
for different absence and attendance types.

 The actions an employee is permitted to carry out. For example, you can
specify whether an employee is permitted to change or delete an absence that
has already been approved.

 Several reports are available in the backend system to control the processing. The
reports send e-mails to employees to notify them of the status of their leave request.
Approvers and time administrators are notified of leave requests that they have to
process. You can schedule the reports as a periodic background process. If you want
to useSAP Business Workflow, the same reports are processed with the
corresponding workflow tasks. For more information about the workflow, see General
Workflow for Documents.

 You can use Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) to customize the service to suit your
requirements. For example, you can adjust the processing process to suit your needs,
or import and change data.

Features
This service provides the following features to enable employees plan and record their
absences:

 Employees can request leave and other absences, and enter notifications of
sickness and other absences that do not require approval.

 The Team Calendar enables employees to check their desired periods

of leave against other team members' leave.

This function also exists as a standalone Service in Manager Self-Service. For more
information, see Team Calendar.

 The Calendar gives employees a three-month overview of their booked

and requested absences.

 The Leave Overview enables employees to view their absences and track the status
of their requests.

 Employees can cancel, shorten, or lengthen absences. To do this, they select the
relevant absence from the Leave Overview in the Team Calendar or Calendar.

 The Time Accounts function provides employees with an overview of their absence
entitlements and attendance approvals. Employees can check their remaining
entitlement before requesting a new leave. This feature also exists as a standalone
service, View Time Account Balances.
