Are there standard functionalities available where we can display Education History (IT 0022) and Previous Employment history (IT0023) and make it read only on ESS.

Hi Yagnesh,

Great question.  SAP has not provided any iViews for Infotype 0022 or 0023, but what they have done is make some new Talent Management infotypes available to us if you have Enhancement Package 4. These are new Infotypes on the PD side (associated to the employee's CP , Central Person, ID.)

As part of the employee profile within Talent Management, the following infotypes are now available:

Please note - there is NO linkage between these newer infotypes and the older 0022 and 0023 Infotypes. Any migration would need to be based on on your specific customer requirements.  

You can only use these infotypes if you decide to go forward with the new Talent Management functionality.  As far as making read-only, you can do that through some easy configuration/development of the Web Dynpro ABAP technology.

How does installing enhancement packages -- without activating -- impact existing functionality?  Is there a way to get a summary of the impacts?

We found impacts on our eRC and UWL functionality, even though we did not activate.  We are still working with SAP to resolve and we went live with eHP5 last December.

Where can we find a list of EhP5 new features for ESS/MSS?

Hi Jackie,

How are you?

Probably the best, most up-to-date place to get the latest EhP5 features and functionality is here (this assumes you will migrate to the new Web Dynpro ABAP launchpad customizing - we can chat about that later!):

1st business function (requires EhP5)

help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_06/helpdata/en/...

2nd business function (requires EhP6)

Also you can come to my jumpstart session at the HR 2012 conference in Vegas:
