Filtering Related Actions in the Company Directory

With 9.2 Oracle delivers over 500 related actions in the company directory.  The problem with these related actions is they point to both MSS and ESS transactions and there are no filters that prevent these from showing up on associates within the directory.  For example, this is what the related actions looks like for myself when I look up at my manager's related actions  Why would I be able to see View Compensation History for her?  Note, that there are two View Compensation History links.  One takes you to ESS and to MSS.

We need to filter out these services.  So I created a simple filter that looks like this for ESS:

 method linkVisible
   /+ Returns Boolean +/
   /+ Extends/implements PT_RCF:ServiceFilter.linkVisible +/
   Local string &emplid;
   
   try
      &emplid = HR_OC_NODE_WRK.EMPLID;
      
   catch Exception &trash
      &emplid = DERIVED_HRCD_MN.EMPLID;
   end-try;
   
   If &emplid = %EmployeeId Then
      Return True;
   Else
      Return False;
   End-If;
end-method; 

I created another one for MSS checks to see if the current user is a manager for the target emplid.

Then I used SQL to update the backend table and moved it to QA:

 
UPDATE  PSPTCSSRVCONF A SET PACKAGEROOT = 'ZZ_RLC_SERVICEFILTERS', QUALIFYPATH = ':',
APPCLASSID = 'isMeMss' where portal_objname = 'HC_HRCD_CO_DIRECTORY_GBL' AND PNLNAME = 'HRCD_MAIN'
AND exists ( select 'x' from PSPTCSSRVDEFN x where x.PTCS_SERVICEID = a.PTCS_SERVICEID 
AND X.PORTAL_MENUNAME IN (  'ROLE_MANAGER' ));

 
UPDATE  PSPTCSSRVCONF A SET PACKAGEROOT = 'ZZ_RLC_SERVICEFILTERS', QUALIFYPATH = ':',
APPCLASSID = 'isMeEss' where portal_objname = 'HC_HRCD_CO_DIRECTORY_GBL' 
AND PNLNAME = 'HRCD_MAIN'AND exists ( select 'x' from PSPTCSSRVDEFN x 
where x.PTCS_SERVICEID = a.PTCS_SERVICEID AND X.PORTAL_MENUNAME IN (  'ROLE_EMPLOYEE' ));

Now that looks correct.
