Hello,
Resource Planning
Use
Resource planning is a planning aid. If you only know the quantities of consumed resources (see also: Resources) you can use resource planning to plan activity-dependent or activity-independent primary costs or revenues by quantity. You can carry out detailed planning of a cost element by subdividing the cost element on the basis of the resources. The system valuates the given resource consumption with a price, which you can store separately in the system.
You can also link resources to a material or to a base planning object. This means that a resource or a base planning object has been entered in the resource master record. For the valuation of resource consumption during planning, the system uses the price of the material, regardless of whether you have defined a price for the resource during pricing (see also: Pricing).

  • Problem launching Resource planning tool

    Hi all,
           I have some problem in launching the resouce planning tool,T-Code:CRM_DWP.
    We have a freshly installed CRM 5.0 sytem,It is throwing me the following errors:
    <b>1)Internal error in Business Object Layer, method: GET_TIMESPEC_TYPES</b>
    <b>2)Serious internal error occurred that cannot be described in more detail</b>
    Are there any pre requisite settings that are required before launching this tool?
    please provide directions to solve this.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sethu.

    Hi Vick,
    If you want to use service resource planning tool, you basically have to
    decide the following:
    1.   Whether you want to use SAP's Scheduling Engine (WFM Core), or an
           external scheduling engine.
    2.   Whether or not you want to work with SAP R/3 HR integration. HR
           integration in this context means that employee data from the SAP
           R/3 HR component is transferred to SAP CRM using ALE. The
           availability information is transferred either to the WFM Core, or
           to the external scheduling engine.
    You can not use resource planning tool without  WFM Core, which is the scheduling engine for RPT
    The scheduling engine can be any thing SAP's WFM core or External Sceduling engine(Non-SAP).
    Let us assume that you are going with WFM Core. Again WFM core can be used in two ways.
    1. If you want to use the WFM Core in an APO system, you have to set up a  RFC   connection to the WFM Core
    2. If you want to use the WFM Core in a SAP CRM add-on, you have to leave the relevant field empty in 'Select RFC Connection'. (This Customizing setting i have already mentioned in my last posting)
    Once you have decided whether you want to use WFM core either with APO system or as a CRM add-on then you need to decide on R/3 HR Integration.
    1. Without SAP R/3 HR Integration
    If you do not use HR integration, use the 'CRM_LRP_FILL_RES' report to
    transfer the service employees, which are stored in the system in the
    role 'Employee', from SAP CRM to the WFM Core.
    2. With SAP R/3 HR Integration
    If you do use HR integration, employee data and availability information
    is transferred from the HR system to the WFM Core using the 'RPTWFMIF'
    report.
    So finally after setting up all these things related WFM core you can run your resource planning tool. There is no RPT without WFM core.
    Before doing all these you ned to install Software component 'WFMCORE'  with version 2.0 which comes along with CRM installation DVD.
    Still if you have any doubt please reply to this post.
    Please reward points if it helps.

  • SAP MRS -  Multi Resource Planning Tool

    Hi All,
    I am looking for 'introductionary' information on the SAP MRS tool. There is a thread already on this tool but it does not give basic data about functionality and implementaion etc.. (below)
    MRS (Multi Resource Scheduling)
    Does anyone have a link that give a functional spec and data sheet on the tool? An 'MRS Guide for dummies' would be great but I will take what I can get....
    The context of usage will be in connection with scheduling service technicans for CS service orders.
    With Thanks,

    Hi PSP,
    Many thanks for that. I had already searched ther SAP help Library but now realise I was searching using incorrect terminology. I will read through the info and will no doubt have more specific questions to come!
    I have implemented various scheduling tools in other ERP systems before and would like to use the 'out of the box' functionality in SAP as much as possible. I need to get to grips with the configuration possibilities for use in the PM module and specifically for service orders, contract maintenance (external custoemr functional locations etc).
    Will get back later today..
    //Rory
    Edit:
    A silly question perhaps, but is this the same tool as found here?

    and here?

  • Workforce Deployment / service resource planning

    Hi,
    I am looking for some information on how to configure WFD for CRM2007.
    Any help will be really appreciated.
    thanks,
    Antoinette

    Hi Antoinette,
    For service orders to reflect in Resource Planning Tool, Following things are necessary:
    1. Mark your Item category in service order as Resource Planning relevant  at IMG path: Customer Relationship Management --> Transactions --> Basic Settings -->define item categories
    2. Item in transaction should be released.
    To be able to do the appointment sceduling in service order, make sure following customizing is done:
    Customer Relationship Management --> Workforce Deployment --> General Settings for Resource Planning --> Scheduling Engine -->Schedule Items Automatically
    Customer Relationship Management --> Workforce Deployment --> General Settings for Resource Planning --> Appointment Scheduling
    Let me know if this helps...!!!

  • MRS - CRM Integration:  Resource Planning Node for CRM demands

    Hi all,
    We have a multi backend scenario where MRS 800 add-ons (ECC and NW add-on) have been installed in ECC. Demands can come from the ECC PM/CS orders or from the CRM system as Service orders.
    For PM/CS orders, from the work center of the activity or operation, the system determines the planning node and assigns the demand to that planning node. But we need help in identifying the Evaluation Path for determining the Resource Planning Node for demands coming from CRM. Currently we have to manually select the CRM Service Order to be able to view the demands in the MRS planning board.
    The service organization structure has been created manually in CRM and is not available in ECC system. We are unable to identify which organization structure can be used as resource planning structure (in the Planning board which is in ECC) for CRM service orders. 
    Please provide your inputs on these two issues in the MRS-CRM scenario:
    1. What is the evaluation path for determining the Resource Planning Node for demands coming from CRM system?
    2. Which organization structure can be used as resource planning structure (in the Planning board which is in ECC) for CRM service orders?
    I would appreciate any help in this regard.
    Thank you!

  • Distribution resource planning, Distribution requirement Planning

    Hi PP Gurus

    Dear
    Distribution Resource Planning
    Distribution resource planning provides a framework for determining the need to replenish
    inventory by:
    Linking market requirements with manufacturing and demand management
    Relating current inventory positions and demand forecasts to production scheduling
    Matching material supply to manufacturing demand, and customer demand to product
    supply
    Process Flow
    1. You define all nodes in the network including plants, distribution centers (DCs),
    warehouses, and stock transfer points using the Distribution Network tool.
    2. You set up the material master record for each node. In MRP 4 of the material master
    record, you must define the deployment strategy for each material (the fair and push
    distribution options) as well as deployment horizon (push horizon). For the push horizon,
    enter the number of days for which the system considers the ATD quantity and any
    additional quantity produced. Any quantity produced beyond the push horizon is not
    considered in the deployment calculation.
    3. To calculate an available to deploy (ATD) quantity, use the availability check rule, DE, in
    Customizing, u2018Carry out control for availability check.u2019 The availability check and the
    deployment checking rule, determine the MRP elements that are used to calculate the
    ATD quantity.
    4. You create a forecast for each DC; for example, a sales forecast.
    5. You transfer the forecasted data to Demand Management. The system creates
    independent requirements.
    6. You perform a DRP run in each DC and in each supplying plant. The DRP run considers
    the quota arrangements defined in the network, available stock, sales orders, and
    independent requirements.
    The DRP run in the DCs creates releases for stock transport requisitions in the
    supplying plants.
    The DRP run in the supplying plants creates planned orders for production.
    7. You convert planned orders into production orders for manufacturing.
    You run deployment to produce stock transport orders for distribution of stock from the supplying
    plants to the DCs.
    Distribution Requirement Planning :
    Generates stock transport requisitions between locations.
    Accounts for time-dependent safety stocks when the replenishment stock is calculated.
    Initiates planning runs in a net change procedure or in a regenerative planning mode
    Deployment
    When demand is greater than supply, deployment calculates a fair share quantity based on the available-to-deploy (ATD) quantity and requirements in the distribution centers to be supplied.
    When supply is greater than demand, deployment calculates distribution of stock using pull or push logic within the distribution network according to planned requirements.
    Generates stock transport orders from suggested orders in the DRP plan.
    Prioritizes quantities supplied based on requirements types (customer order, forecast, and safety stock).
    Multi-Sourcing Using Quota Arrangements
    Lets multiple plants supply a percentage of the material required by a single location, which makes it possible to prioritize the deliveries made by plants and to specify maximum delivery quantities for particular time periods.
    Represents simple capacity constraints, and combines the percentage-based and maximum quantity approaches.
    Lets you establish minimum, maximum, and rounding profiles for lot sizing within the network.
    Lets you change the distribution network at future dates.
    Lets you offset delivery times for specific items from the sourcing location to the replenishment location.
    Single-Sourcing Using Special Procurement Keys
    Hope this above details will be useful for your requirement .

  • Distribution Resource planning

    What is Distribution Resource planning ? Please explain me with few examples?
    thanks in advance
    PSS

    Hi there,
    Purpose
    Distribution resource planning provides a framework for determining the need to replenish
    inventory by:
    • Linking market requirements with manufacturing and demand management
    • Relating current inventory positions and demand forecasts to production scheduling
    • Matching material supply to manufacturing demand, and customer demand to product
    supply
    Process Flow
    1. You define all nodes in the network&#63719;including plants, distribution centers (DCs),
    warehouses, and stock transfer points&#63719;using the Distribution Network tool. See
    2. You set up the material master record for each node. In MRP 4 of the material
    master record, you must define the deployment strategy for each material (the fair and
    push distribution options) as well as deployment horizon (push horizon). For the push
    horizon, enter the number of days for which the system considers the ATD quantity and

    6. You perform a DRP run in each DC and in each supplying plant. The DRP run
    considers the quota arrangements defined in the network, available stock, sales orders,
    and independent requirements.
    • The DRP run in the DCs creates releases for stock transport requisitions in the
    supplying plants.
    • The DRP run in the supplying plants creates planned orders for production.
    7. You convert planned orders into production orders for manufacturing.
    You run deployment to produce stock transport orders for distribution of stock from the supplying
    plants to the DCs.
    Running DRP
    Purpose
    In DRP, during the net requirements calculation, the system compares available stock and the
    scheduled receipts from the supply source with planned independent requirements and incoming
    sales orders. If there is a material shortage (available stock is less than the quantity required),
    the system creates an order proposal.
    The system calculates the quantity recorded in the order proposal (in the form of a requisition)
    based on the lot-sizing procedure you specify in MRP 1 of the material master record.
    The system also schedules the order proposal. Delivery and release dates are determined from
    the transport time and time associated with goods receipt processing.
    The system can process DRP for the whole supply chain&#63719;including the production plants. DRP
    includes production and purchasing into the planning process for the production plant.
    Prerequisites
    In order to perform a DRP run, you must:
    • Set up a distribution network, including identification of quota arrangements and lead
    times.
    • Define MRP parameters in the material master record for all the materials in the
    distribution network.
    Process Flow
    1. You schedule the DRP runs for your network in the same way you would schedule an
    MRP run.
    2. You perform the DRP run:
    – A DRP run on one material is the same as single-item, single-level planning in the MRP
    run. Because the deployment plan involves finished goods, there is only single-material,
    single-level planning of individual materials without explosion to lower levels.
    – A DRP run on one plant is the same as total planning in the MRP run. Single-plant
    planning involves planning all the materials in a certain location that are relevant for
    requirements planning.
    – A DRP run using mass processing allows you to process several locations at once so
    that the whole supply chain is planned.
    3. You use net change planning to plan only materials that change relevant to distribution
    requirements planning since the last planning run (for example, change in a sales order
    quantity or date). Net change planning improves system performance for large, complex
    distribution networks with many materials. If a material is changed in a way that is
    relevant to the planning run, it is given a net change indicator, and included in the next
    planning run.
    Performance can be improved even further by using the change planning within the
    planning horizon. Only changes relevant to requirements planning that fall within the
    user-defined planing horizon are included in the planning run. To keep the planning
    results up to date, perform a total planning run regularly (weekly or monthly).
    for planning. Regenerative planning is performed in the implementation stages.
    4. If you are using mass processing, determine the sequence in which the series of DRP
    runs must be executed.
    Result
    The information resulting from the DRP runs includes purchase requisitions and scheduling
    agreements. Use these to plan how to supply the distribution centers in your network. The DRP
    run in the DCs creates releases for stock transport requisitions in the supplying plants. A DRP
    run on the supplying plants creates planned orders for production.

  • PS and Resource planning

    Dear all
    this is my first thread, so please let me know if I'm doing something wrong...
    I'm working in a company which is going to implement SAP in the next two years, and so I'm going to interest me in SAP, especially the modul PS. My first question concerning this modul is: How to use the resource planning. My department has to manage about 50 assembler (internal and external) which are going onsite to help the assemling works. So there has to be a very flexible tool. But how to do that with the PS module? Workcenters? Planning board...
    Somebody is able to give me some advice?
    Best regards

    Hello
    thanks for your reply
    that's right, but I attended to various courses and we will get a test system in a few days. I'm part of the team which is going to implement the system. So I have to understand the system before we implement it. If we have to plan the resources with Project Server (of course interfaced with SAP) or if SAP fits to our needs without any additional tool. So every information I can get is helping me a lot.
    Where can I find the Help-Portal?

    I found the solution.....You can actually use "quoted" host names in the templates instead of the SIDs. Make sure that for Domain User Accounts you specify the Domain prefix. For Local User accounts you can just specify the local user name.
    The filename of the template that I made is LOCAL_SEC_TEMPLATE.inf
    Here's what's inside that LOCAL_SEC_TEMPLATE.inf template:
    [Unicode]
    Unicode=yes

  • Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft Assessment and Planning tool (MAP)

    Preparing for the end of support for Windows Server 2003 (4/2015) and the need to migrate from Windows Server 2003, I have been directed on several sites run the Microsoft Assessment
    and Planning tool (MAP) to aid in identifying any software and hardware issues.   Apparently this tool has been recently updated (7/2014) and cannot be installed on a Windows Server 2003 system.  As it requires .NET Framework 4.5 to run.  Unfortunately,
    .NET Framework 4.5 cannot be installed on a Windows Server 2003 as it only supports .NET 4.0.x versions.  All older version links to the MAP tool have been updated to link directly to version 9.1.  Where can I get a MAP tool version that will run
    on Windows Server 2003?  

    Hi,
    Yes, i would agree with arnavsharma
    After the environment scan has been completed in Windows Server 2008r2 or another supported OS, MAP looks at computers running earlier versions of Windows.

  • Project Online Resource Plan issues_Many

    I am trying to setup a client that only wants to use Project Server for portfolio planning and analysis. In this scenario they only want to assign generic resources (remember, no detail plans...only high level), and want to use the resource plan. Sounds
    simple, but I am finding a lot of issues with this scenario, primarily with resources plan.
    1. The resource plan seems to be checked out with no way to check it in other than through the force check-in.  On occasion it seems to get checked in but I can't figure out the steps.  I've tried with and without editing and publishing the
    project itself with no avail.  Sometimes the Publish option is still available (but I assume it wouldn't be if someone else checked it out) but sometimes it is greyed out.
    2. I can't assign capacity to a generic resource and use it in Portfolio Analysis.  This seems to be a feature that in my opinion was poorly conceived, but I'll leave out the details of this rant.
    3. and biggest issue which is definitely a bug and show-stopper.  Changing the date rage of an existing resource plan doesn't change the resource demand for a date range that was cut from the original. I can back the start date or extend the end date,
    but cannot move the start date or end date in.  What happens is that the grid changes just fine but the resource date range along with the demand for that time no longer in play still show up as project demand.
    I added this to the Project Online forum but all of this behavior is the same with Project Server 2013.  Nothing I could see in the forums.  Is this a new bug or can there maybe be a fix on the way?  Any comment or update would be greatly
    appreciated.
    Thanks...

    Firstly, all of your people and machines need to b entered in the Enterprise Resource Pool.  For each of the machines you list, enter a Max. Units value that represents 100% multiplied by the number of machines you have.  For example, if you have
    three road graders, you would enter 300% in the Max. Units column for a Road Grader resource.
    Next, you will need to build enterprise projects, add the required people and machines as team members in the project, assign the resources to each task as needed, and then save and publish each enterprise project.
    To see how the workload is distributed for your resources, navigate to the Resource Center page and select the resources whose assignments and availability you want to study.  At the right end of the Resources ribbon, click the Resource Availability
    button.  On the Resource Availability, select the time range you want to use and you can then see the availability of your selected resources.  You can also click the Resource Assignments button to study how the resources are being used on tasks
    across all projects in Project Server.
    Hope this helps.
