Hello Experts,

Order confirms than sales order and project will create
material of BOM is assigned to any activity in project so these material (RM) will be procured and consumed
assign activity for all work done on material to produce FG or SFG.
confirm activity whenever any work done like fabrication done so confirm and its cost comes to WBS.
than we have to subcontracting process so dispach SFG from this and receive after activity done by third party.
than more work is done and confirm these activity. than after all work done we get FG in stock. than delivery from project.
We are facing issue in above business process of our client as below:
1. process of subcontracting using project system as we are not using production planning. how we get any SFG for subcontracting process.
2. if we confirm all activities and consume all Raw Materials than how we will get finished good in our project stock for delivery.
3. after delivery from project how sales order affects with regards to completeness of this sales document.
Please help for this.
Note: Remember we are not using PP cos customer require detailed report of these process and capacity planning etc.
Thanks
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
Assume this is my project structure & attached components. I will procure this components externally. After GRN, This components will be issued to network with 581 Q movement type.
Now we need to assemble this raw material to produce our FG, As these SFG are in our project stock. What we need to do for assembly process through PS.
Also throw some light over benefit of using PS-BOM interface ( CN33 ) for attaching material components.
Project
WBS
Network
Activity A
Gears
Qty - 1
Activity B
Blades
Qty - 2
Activity C
Stand
Qty - 1
Activity D
Connectors
Qty - 1

Difference between SAP cProjects and SAP Project System

Hi,
SAP already has a solution PS ( Project System ) for managing the projects in an Organization.
When there is a solution already existing then why did SAP come up with a new solution cProjects ?
Can any help me in understanding the main differences and advantages between cProjects and PS ?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Priyatham

Hi.
I have copied an SAP text below which sets PS, cProjects, (x)RPM and PPM into context.
In the ninties, the Project System was developed within SAP R/3 to provide a powerful application with full integration into logistics and financials.
Target groups were industries such as engineering and construction, automotive, high tech or utilities with focus on project manufacturing or large maintenance projects.
Later on, the need for more flexible and easy-to-use tools supporting the new process methodologies, phased-based approaches, quality gates, and so on, emerged. SAP developed Collaboration Projects and Collaboration Folders (cProjects Suite), which takes these new requirements into account and provides extensive features to collaborate with internal and external partners using a HTML-like interface and Web Application Server technology.
Thus, cProjects was able to address to a broader range of industries, such as service providers, offering a high degree of visibility and flexibility to support various scenarios from product development to consulting projects. Nevertheless, cProjects is seen as a complementary product to Project System, not as ist successor!
It always depends on the scenario that a customer wants to cover, which application is the best choice.
As another matter of fact, combinations of both are also possible.
In addition to this, the new generation of composite applications was born and SAP xApp for Resource and Portfolio Management provides excellent capabilities to align operational project management with strategic portfolio management.
The latest developments bring all these three applications tighter together and offers a comprehensive solution for project and portfolio management by covering logistical, financial and human resource aspects and addressing the needs of all stakeholders throughout the entire organisation.
However, xRPM capabilities are not only restricted to project portfolios but can be leveraged to control all kind of portfolio items.

Interface between Microsoft Project and SAP Project Systems

Hi,
When we update SAP Project systems from Microsoft Project, our users want to swap values between project nodes id and description. Is this possible? Which BAPIs are used by OpenPs? I am trying to find a user-exit where I can swap these values.
Thanks in advance.

Project System Cash Management in combination with statistical WBS element

Hi,
within a customer project, we have to solve the following issue:
Customer runs projects and statistical projects in combination with internal orders.
We want to use the PS Cash Management for planned and actual payments.
With statistical projects we have the following problem:
Invoice and actual payments will be processed with the transaction CJFN.
Actual payments are shown only on the internal order (transaction CJIA), but not on the statistical WBS element.
We want the information about the actual payments with in the project system reporting (S_ALR_87013574).
Projects, not flagged as statistical will deliver the expected results.
Many thanks for your ideas, to solve this problem.
Steffen

are u posting to some other cost object also. normally they wud have to be posted to a COPA also with the cost element being 11 category.
the wbs will receive the statistical posting, so there needs to be a real object also.
see whether the real object is getting derived.
the system is nt finding the real object and trying to post with the WBS in real, but since its statistical, the error.
any other calrifications. plz post.
regards
anantha

Problem removing SAP java system

Hi everyone,
I've been trying to remove a SAP java system using the uninstall program and have been encountering a problem with the following log:
WARNING 2006-05-09 17:26:24
Error 1053 (The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
) in execution of a 'StartService' function, line (273), with parameter (XServer).
WARNING 2006-05-09 17:26:56

ERROR 2006-05-09 17:26:56
MOS-01199 Could not start the 'XServer' service on host 'Local'.
What could be the possible cause of this error?
In addition to that, I've also been trying to create a new instance but encountered these two error messages in the sdbinst.log
cannot do update check - test file "d:/sapdb/adm/db/pgm/kernel.exe" not found
installation exited abnormally at Tu, May 09, 2006 at 17:34:37
Thanks,
Michael

Hi Michael,
this usually appears in case you stop deinstallation somewhere in the middle. XServer is a service of MaxDB, the DB delivered from SAP.
You could try the program sapstartsrv, which gives you the option to deinstall some services. For this you have to know the SID you gave to the system (also a directory name in the usr/sap/ path with three letters). For XServer please refer to the databases manual.

Benny

Does somebody have experience to manage SAP project with solution manager?

Hi friends,
I will implement new project for my client. As I know, solution manager is already part of SAP Netweaver. To install SAP NetWeaver, solution manager must be installed. Meanwhile, solution manager provides a project management tool, for example, the business process definition, blueprint...
But I never use it to manage project. Could somebody share experience in this area?
Regards,
Watson

Hi Ragu,
Thanks for your posting. I will implement a SAP APO project. What I need is the methods to use solution manager, for example, configuration manual, step by step guide. I'm also interested in the advantages of SAP solution manager.

SAP Project Systems

HI Every One.. I am a new entrant in this field, kindly suggest me as to what are the prerequisites necessary i.e. basic clarifications i should have before i move to implementation at the client side..
Thank you

Hi Vinayak,
The base for the blue print is the out come AS-IS TO-BE study. You have to identify the application of PS in that company and accordingly you have to map it to SAP. I can give you some insight.
Buying a new asset like machinery. This process can be implemented in PS as a project with WBS elements. Activity starts in FICO(releasing the budget) and executed in PS, finally handed over to production department. I just wrote in 2 lines, but the whole process involves lot of activities. It depends on the requirement.
Another example can be construction company, where PS can be used extensively for each and every construction projects with many structures.
If you can tell me the business process then I could explain about te integration with other modules. It entirely depends on how we are going to use it.
I dont have any readymade document with me now, but will try to find.
Hope this helps,
WR,
Sanjeev
