PS Reporting in whatever currency converted according to transaction currency

$
0
0

Dear Expert,

 

My customer would like to follow in PS report amount / values in a currency of his choice translated from the transaction currency.

On a same WBS, there are several posting for a same cost element and different currency.

 

Indeed, if I use an exchange rate and type from the CO area posting, there has already been a conversion from the transaction currency to the CO area currency which lead to inconsistences if the exchange type is not the same.

Of course it seems logical that all valyes are translated on a single date to be populated.

 

From our prospective we have the following cases :

  • PS cost element report => Thanks to transaction RPP0 we are able to satisfy our customer requirement
  • PS hierarchical report => We do not find a work-around scenario. We are wondering if something would be possible through the transaction CJEC for currency translation key ?
  • PS summarized report by cost element => We do find a work-around scenario.
  • PS summarized hierarchical report => We do find a work-around scenario.

 

If we have to develop a new solution on those topics, do you think we have to make a full specific solution or should we use report painter / writer to adress this need. I am not sure it is even possible by report painter / writer.

 

Thanks for your feedback

 

Best Regards

How to use Distribution Rule Group (BUREG) for WBS Settlement Rule

$

Hi All,

 

I would like to ask how can I use Distribution Rule Group (COBRB-BUREG) in the WBS Settlement Rule? When I am maintaining settlement rule for WBS, I can only see Distribution Rule Number. And when I look at the COBRB table, the field Distribution Rule Group is empty. I would like to know how to create new distribution rule group.

 

The reason why I need to know this is because I am worrying that my distribution rule number may exceed 999 lines. So I am planning to control and extend it using the Distribution Rule Group. Can I have your inputs on this, please?

 

Your help is very much appreciated.

 

Thank you.

Hi Guys,

 

I want to know the use of distribution rule group COBRB-BUREG in distribution rule table for WBS. Whenever I create the settlement rule for WBS(CJ12), it has an empty value. If I need to populate the value, do I need to configure anything. If yes, What is the tcode.

 

Also, I want to know if I generate the settlement rules in the run time (during the actual settlement process CJ88 ), any problems happen for the settlement process? I am trying to do this for mitigating the 999 settlement rule restriction.

 

Also any other ways for achieveing more than 999 settlement rules other than creating the new WBS for tagging the rules?

 

 

Thanks in advance.

"Budget Exceeded" error not appearing at the time of changing PR but appearing at the time of PO change.

$

Dear All,

 

At the time of PR value change after creation of PO budget exceeded error is not appearing even though the PR value exceeds the budget. But at the time of changing the same value in PO, budget exceeded error is appearing.


List of steps:


PR created.

PR released

PO created with reference to PR and released.

PR value changed to a value more than the available budget - No budget exceeded error.

PO value changed in accordance with the PR - System throwing the budget exceeded error.

 

Now the issue is why the system bypassed the budget exceeded error at the time of PR value change and only giving the error at the time of PO value change. Also, we observed that while changing the quantity in PR which results in exceeding budget, system is giving the error. But while changing the value system is not giving the budget exceeded error.

 

Your inputs will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Copy planned del time to duration of activity

$

Hi experts

 

I have used the functionality "Maximum of 67(100) days copied as duration of activity".

I attached a component whose planned delivery time is 100 days.

 

However system assigned a different value.

 

The following information is populated by system:

 

Maximum of 67(100) days copied as duration of activity 0030

Message no. CN747

 

Diagnosis

You want to adjust the duration of a network activity to the maximum delivery time or replenishment lead time of all allocated material components.

 

System Response

The system only calculates using the allocated material components that have the indicator Alignment finish date set. The maximum duration comes from

 

the planned delivery time when the material components are procured externally

the total replenishment lead time when the material components are produced internally or the in-house production time if the total replenishment lead time is not maintained in the material master

Procedure

Make sure that the Alignment finish date indicator on the component detail screen of the activity is set for all material components allocated to the activity.

 

I wish experts to comment

 

warm regards

invoice vertification error because annual budget exceeded

$

Hi,

 

I have a P.O GR already completed. There is no foreign exchange rate involved in the P.O. let's say the full amount of the P.O is $100. There is also commitment for this P.O.( i.e $100 reserved for this P.O)

 

However, when user want to post invoice for this P.O she encountered annual budget exceeded by message.

There is a tax of 7% in the invoice. therefore the total amount of the invoice is $107.

 

I used fmavcr01 to check available amount is say $3.

 

Is this the cause of the error because $3 is not enough for the $7 tax?

 

Where can i check in the SAP configuration or tables to understand why I have this annual budget exceeded error.

 

Thank you very much!

Copy Planned Delivery Time to Activity Duration does not work

$

Hello Experts

 

I'm trying to copy planned delivery time of a material component into the activity duration and it doesn't work

 

Procedure:

 

  • I have an external activity and the network is backward scheduling
  • The activity has not yet been scheduled but the end dates for the Project & Network are in the far future
    • some times I give it a duration and the end & start dates are also far in the future
  • I assign a material component to an external activity using CJ20N
  • I set procurement type to "PR+Res. for WBS element" (or anything with a PR sometimes)
  • I enter Quantity, Vendor, P.Org and the Align. finish date is already ticked (I made sure of that in configuration)
  • Planned Delivery Time is inherited automatically from the material master to the material component (or I enter it manually sometimes)
  • I go to component overview and choose "select all" (sometimes it's just 1 entry)
  • I go to the menu bar -->edit-->component-->transfer delivery time -> duration
  • I get the message "Maximum of 20(30) days copied as duration of activity 0030" / Message no. CN747
    • I know this message is because they are 20 working days out of a total of 30 days according to the factory calender
  • I go to the activity (external tab). planned delivery time field is not populated
    • in case I had already put a value in it earlier, it does not change even though it is less than the planned delivery time for the component.
  • I go to the activity (Dates tab). duration is still 0
    • in case I had already put a duration earlier, duration does not change at all even though it is less than the planned delivery time for the component.

 

the system responds as if I didn't do anything

 

can anyone help me please !!

Am I doing something wrong ?? can anyone tell me the procedure that works for him/her ??

 

Is there any configuration, business function activation or SAP Component installation to solve this?

 

Thanks for reading

POC Aggregation from Activities to WBS

$
0
0

Hello Experts,

I am implementing EVA analysis for the first time. I am able to get almost all values in CNE5 but I am not able to understand the logic behind upward aggregation for manual weightage.

For example:

 

Project Version : 100

EV Basis : Cost Plan (annual)

POC weighting : Weight

 

 

- WBS1            POC weight 'none' Measurement Method : None

 

--WBS 1.1        POC weight 60     Measurement Method : None

---Activity A       POC weight 70     Measurement Method : Cost Proportional

---Activity B       POC weight 30     Measurement Method : Time Proportional

 

--WBS 1.2        POC weight 40     Measurement Method : None

---Activity C       POC weight 50     Measurement Method : Cost Proportional

---Activity D       POC weight 50     Measurement Method : Time Proportional

 

All these activities pertain to period 1, and after I run cjen and cne1 for period 1, i get the following values in cne5

 

Project ObjectWeightAggr. plan POC
-WBS 130066,7
--WBS 1.116062.5

---Activity A

70100
---Activity B30100
--WBS 1.214071.4
---Activity C50100
---Activity D50100

 

Calculated Weight at WBS 1 : 160 + 140 = 300

Calculated Aggr. plan POC at WBS 1 : (160*62.5 + 140*71.4) / (160 + 140) = 66.7

 

Calculated weight at WBS 1.1 : 70 + 30 + 60 = 160

Calculated Aggr. plan POC at WBS 1.1 : 100 / 160 = 62.5

 

Calculated weight at WBS 1.2 : 70 + 30 + 40 = 140

Calculated Aggr. plan POC at WBS 1.2 : 100 / 140 = 71.4

 

Now my question is why the system is adding 60% to weightage when calculating Weight at WBS 1.1 and Aggr.plan POC for WBS 1.1 ? What is the logic behind it which I am failing to understand ?

 

Activities A & B are 100% complete so their superior WBS 1.1 should have an Aggr. plan POC of 100 %

Accordingly WBS 1.1 and WBS 1.2 are 100 % complete so Aggr. plan POC for WBS 1 should be 100 % as well.


If for example :

Activities C & D were 0 % complete, accordingly WBS 1.2 would have Aggr.plan POC = 0%. With Activities A & B completed, WBS 1.1 Aggr.plan POC should equal 100 %. Accordingly Aggr.plan POC for WBS 1 should equal : (100*60 + 0*40) / 100 = 60 %


I hope I am able to explain my problem and requirement. I am also attaching a screenshot for this scenario.

Kindly help me understand these calculations and find out a way to get the desired results.

Thankyou

Hi

 

 

Project cash management is activated in our system, when creating purchase requisition from project builder with account assignment 'Q' system does not generating any document in FM area (CJIA). Contradicting to this, system generating document in FM area when creating purchase requisition through ME51N transaction with account assignment Q and setting project WBS to account assignment object.

 

 

Later, comparing both purchase requisitions using ME5J, field committed item showing different values (default layout do not display this field, need to added from change layout settings). Can any one help us to find the settings which derives the committed item field in purchase requisition?

 

 

Screen shots are attached for detailed understanding.

 

 

 

 

Thanks
