Dynamic update of Planning Start Date in Planning Book

Hello.
Has anyone ever created a program to update the Planning Start Date of a Planning Book dynamically to the next Friday of the month for example?
The help information available for this field mentions a PDATE userexit, but I can not find it. Has anyone ever used it and has some examples to share?
Many thanks.

Hi there,
I have never done this earlier. However i know that planning start date is stored in table /SAPAPO/PBDVWHDR-TBID_START. I tried changing this entry in the table and it correctly updated the dataview plannig start date.
So you may write a small program to update this field and it shall update the dataview.
Please let me know if this helps you.

  • Update of Planning Start Date does not update macros

    I have written a program to update the planning start date in a planning book using function /SAPAPO/MSDP_PB_SAVE_DVIEW_TAB. I have included this in a process chain. The update is immediately followed by a /SAPAPO/TS_BATCH_RUN variant that runs a macro in the updated book. The macro uses planning start date. The issue is that the macro does not appear to have been updated with the new planning start date. I experimented with using transaction Define Planning Book (/SAPAPO/SDP8B) whilst also in Macro Workbench on another session. If I change the planning start date this is also not reflected in the macro unless I come out of the Macro Workbench completely and fo back in. This appears to be a buffereing issue.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to force the macros to be updated? Otherwise I may have to resort to just putting a delay in the chain and hoping the maco will be updated before it is run.
    Thanks

    Hello Mani,
    We have planning books used to calculate demand for newspapers at weekends. At weekends the papers contain printed colour magazines. These have  to be ordered in advance. The macros that we run use planning start date to claculate the quntity of magazines required for the next weekend. The business also needs to do advanced calculation for the next two weekends. This requires an update to the planning start date to change the basis for the macros. We do not wish to write separate macros for each weekend as there are quite a few of them. We are trying to keep it as simple as possible.

  • Billing Plan Start Date not copied to Sales order from Service Contract

    Hi
    We are developing a process of Creation of Service Contract and then a order confirmation.
    Now based on the Order Confirmation will bill based on the Bill Plan.
    The Bill plan start date in contract header is not flowing to Sales Order header while creating with reference.
    Then navigating to Header Billing plan and if we input the date the billing plan dates are displayed.
    We checked the copy control settings and seems like the date is not copied.Is this a standard behaviour.
    If so then do we have any work arounds to achieve the same. Because the contract start date can change before confirmation.
    So business wants a sales order confirmation to be created after contract creation and bill periodically as per the Sales order instead of contract.

    Hi,
    Appreciate ur quick response. But instead of FKDAT i need the FPLA-BEDAT to be flowed to Billing Plan.Right now iam entering the following date manually at header.Instead if it copies from Contract header then manual entry could be neglected.
    Is it possible with the same routine to code with the above mentioned FPLA-BEDAT.

  • Need to update the actual start date & time of a operation in workorder

    Hi Experts,
                   I need to update the Actual Start date and Actual start time of a Operation of  a WorkOrder through a Function Module.
    I was looking into the BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN FM, but i couldn't find any field relating to the actual start date and start time of a operation.
    Kindly Suggest me which Function module i can use to complete my task.
    Thanks in Advance
    bye

    Hi,
    It is system's standard behavior and no other MRP type will help you in moving the start date outside the planning time fence. With MRP type P3 new requirements are covered at the end of the fixing period, the end date is set and planed order is scheduled backword. Hence the start date will lie within the planning time fence.

  • Mass updation of Dep start date in Asset

    Hi All,
    Please note that I have created a new depreciation area for client for tax reporting purpose(areas do not post).The client wants to update the depreciation start date in all the assets with this new dep area.This can be done through customizing settings( transfer of dep terms) but then the useful life will also be identical to reference area(01) which client wants to change as per requirement and should not be same as reference area.
    The other options are LSMW & BDC upload where i can do a mass upload for depreciation start date for all the assets.However I have not used this feature.
    I would really appreciate if someone can help me with the steps.
    Regards
    Pranay

    Hi,
    To do the mass changes to the assets create a substitution in Asset Accounting in GGB1.
    Asset Accounting - AM Master data mass change.
         Create a step under the substitution with the required changes(take Deparea and Asset Classes in Prerequisite)
    You would require multiple substitutions. Precisely one substitution for all the asset classes with the same set of Deprecation start date and Useful life.
    In OA02 create new entry for the compny code.
    In AR01select the assets for which the mass change needs to be done.
    select the Create work list icon on appln tool bar. Name the work list. select Change asset w/o dialog (bulk change). Give the substition name that is created.
    In AR31 give the worklist details
    Select the Release Work List icon on the appln tool Bar.
    the changes will be effective for the existing selected assets.
    Try first in IDES before you do the actual changes. This will work.
    Thanks,
    Raja.

  • 10.7 ERP Question on Planned Shipment Date and Planned Delivery Date

    Hi All,
    I have a 10.7 ERP question related to Planned shipment date and Planned Delivery Date which are on shipment::released event.
    Are these held and displayed at the shipset / shipment level on ERP database
    and forms or are they held & displayed at theline level ?
    This question is specific to Oracle ERP 10.7
    Thanks,
    SM

    I do not believe 10.7 documentation is available online anymore. Release 11 documentation is available at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/A60725_05/r11_doc.htm - the functionality closely resembles 10.7

  • My plan start date

    How can I view when my plan started?

    You can sign in to My Verizon, then click on My Documents and Receipts in the upper right corner. Your agreement should be in the list of docs. Or, when you're signed in on the main page in My Verizon, find the date you're eligible to upgrade, then count back 20 months.

    If you decide to correct the data without taking help from Oracle support, you can always take help of these forums in doing the same. we will be more than happy to help you. :)

  • Basic start date and scheduled finished date...can we have Planned date?

    Is there any "Plan Start Date" in SAP, the date where scheduler must put manually in the system to determine the "committed" date for the work to be executed - based on earliest and latest start date which automatically calculated by SAP?
    Our plant must keep the Basic Finish Date unchanged since it is the Required Date of the Work to finish.  We found that the Plan Date does not change and I was wondering if there is any way we can have the Planned date on the order header or have the basic finish date unchanged?
    Appreciate your advices

  • Multi counter plan schduling start date

    Dear Experts,
    Anyone can clarify the following points to provide proper support to client.
    1. we have created multi counter plan with cycle set contains of different target counter readings with logical condition OR.
    2. Now users are recording the counters via measuring documents.
    3. we are mannually scheduling the above M.Plan. System is deriving the order start date on its own. we want to know the basis behind deriving the order start date? userrs wants starting date on its own, can system will support with ant exit?
    4. what is the significance of annual estimate reading in the measuring point? how it help to derive the planned start date of M.Order?
    5. users also wants that, system should check measuring documents on its own while creating measuring documents and should result the order if it crosses the limit of the cycle set mentioned in the M.Plan. Is it possible to support the scenario?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Krishnamurthy

    Krishnamurthy,
    3) Do a manual call of the Maintenance plan, this would be the easiest way, instead of using exits
    4) For performance based MP,The [calculated planned date|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/3c/abb1ec413911d1893d0000e8323c4f/frameset.htm] depends on the counter reading at the time of planning, and the estimated annual performance that has been defined for the counter.Hence it is important that you enter measurement readings for the counter,e even-though the reading has not changed.
    5) With respect to your last question, That functionality is accomplished through Condition based maintenance functionality. You will have to use the user exit to generate a order when the reading falls outside pre-determined values.

  • Adjusting FIN and CAP buckets when planned start changes

    Hello,
    I have a task to update the financial and capacity buckets when the planned start date of a project is changed.  For instance, if the planned start date is moved out two months I need to move all of the data in the buckets out two months and clear the original buckets.  I am writing a function module that will be triggered when the /RPM/ITEM_MODIFY function module is executed and the start date has changed.  My function module will execute the following:
    /RPM/CAP_GROUP_GETLIST (to get the original data)
    ...custom code to build the table of adjusted data to be passed to the next FM
    /RPM/CAP_GROUP_MODIFY (to update the buckets after I have adjusted the data)
    /RPM/SAVE_CHANGES
    Is anyone aware of a function module that will give me the appropriate entries required for the IS_CONTEXT parameter when executing /RPM/CAP_GROUP_GETLIST.  I believe I need the 'Parent GUID',  'Object type' and  'Object GUID'. 
    The appropriate function modules would be used for the same process to update the Financial buckets
    Thanks in advance for any direction that you can give me.
    Pat

    parent_guid should be item guid
    object guid should be category guid - so you need to fetch all categories first
    object_type should be for item
