Recruitment - Complete planned activities automatically

Hi Experts,
I'm facing this issue:
is it possible in the Recruitment component to set the system in order to change the status of a planned activity "completed" as soon as it has been completed.
For example: I planned a "Rejection e-mail activity", then I execute the tcode PBA5 to perform the activity of sending the e-mail. Is it possible to turn this activity to status "complete" automatically just after I perform the pba5?
Thank you very much!

E-recruiting planned activities

Dear experts,
we are implementing EREC 6.0 on ECC 6.
we created all activities in a process template. when logged in recruiter role under Applications, we are not able to see these planned activities.
what could be the problem!
Regards,
Bharat

Hi,
this is no bug. In the list of application you work on the application level. So SAP shows only the activities which are customized on the application (ND) object type only. This is other to the candidate selection where you see the activities for application and candidacy.
But to be clear - adding most / all activities to the candidacy only does not has to be wrong. This is a question of the process and application handling design. Here starts the difference between being able to find the IMG nodes to customize the activities and the propper design of the rollout. For what is right or wrong you need insight in the process and you need the discussion with the hr department.
But as stated above in general i do not recomment using the application list and the candidacy selection together. To my experience this is too complicated for recruiters. They won't understand why creating an activity is one times this way and one time another.

How To Automatically Create Planned Orders When Sales Order Is Saved

I have a MTO sceanrio where we need to create planned orders when sales orders are saved without running MRP.
I have the Planning Strategy Group set to 81 in the material master, but it didnt create the planned orders.
Could you tell me other settings I should review to make the planned orders create automatically?

Tony,
At the "Requir. Classes" (OVZG) customizing screen, field "Automatic start of make-to-order in background mode" affects the automatic planning. See fields help doc. below.
    If you select this indicator, the system automatically carries out
    single-item, multi-level planning for a sales order if a sales order
    item is either created or changed.
    This function can only be used for make-to-order production.
So check out the Req. Cl that yr Req. type (req. type is part of a strategy).

Craete ur set type.
Create Hierarchiy. Create category under that. Assign set type in the category.
Assign Category Hierarchy to the application. This is also important step.

If does not solve. Pls send the detail screen print what u did in [email protected] It will be better to tell u what step u r missing.

Planned Activites in opportunity managment

Hi Experts,
I am working with CRM 7.0 . In opportunity managment I find two assignment blocks 'Planned Activites' and 'Completed Activities'. When I create a Follow up activity . I find the activity in my 'Planned activities' assignement block. Now when I click the action corresponding to the activities. The activity moves to the 'Completed Activities' assignment block. But to my suprise there is no change in status of the Activity.
Is this the standard behaviour or I need to do some customization regarding this ?. Could you please then explain what is the use of the action link in both the 'Planned and Completed Activities'.
Thanks in advance.
Subhashis

Hi Robert,
Thanks for replying. You are right saying that the change from planned to completed activity in opportunity management is dependent on the system status. Only the system status is updated to 'completed' for the activity when I click the 'Close' Action.
But I am wordering what could be the business case to set only the system status in this case ? is there any way to set both the statuses ?

Subhashis

Creating Planning Application on 9.3.1

I'm new to Hyperion Planning and I've trouble creating an application on Workspace.
I want to create a multi-currencies application. Before I creating the application on Workspace, I've created a database in SQL server and instance, created datasource via Configuration Utility. After creating the SQL database and datasource, I went to Workspace->Navigate->Administer->Classic Application Administration-> Planning Administration. I entered required information and selected corresponding datasource and instance, etc. When I was done, I clicked "finish". However, after a few seconds, an error occurred. The error message is "an error occurred while processing this page. Check the log for more details." I looked through the log files in Hyperion folder. I couldn't find a log which describes Hyperion Planning activities. The login ID I used has "application creation" right in Shared Services.
Does anyone come across similar issue? What are the possible resolution to the problem? What log file does the error message refer to?
Appreciated if someone could shred some light on this.
Thanks in advanced.

Hi,
look if the cubes exist in essbase. If they exist delete them and retry to deploy the application.
Is the User in Shared Services Native Directory or is it external authenticated? I had to use one from Native Directory to do that.

E-Recruitment-Succession Planning-Final Activity.

Hello Every one,
I am working on E-rec Succession Planning, ERP 2005.
When we perform the Succession planning for any position, we get potential candidates. It is also possible to perform certain activities on the Candidates,
Ex:Assigning Mentor, Sending Invitations, Correspondence etc...
My doubt is, what is the final activty within the Succession Planning Cycle to be performed on the candidates.?
Similar Example: Within E-Recruitment, Recruitment Cycle, I believe
""Data Transfer for new Employees"" is the final activity where the data is transferred to the HR System.
Any one who worked on E-recruitment Succession Planning kindly share some inputs.
Thanks
PS: Points will be awarded

Hi,
The final point of Succession planning is the Vacancy. That means, if i assign any successor, that position will become vacant, then if i assign the corresponding successor, then that will become Vacant, this cycle will go up to the last level and trigger the Vacancy for the Final Position.
Good Luck

Step by step to create planning book & Macro's behind it   I am a ABAPer

Recently I have been shifted from R/3 to Apo ; Want to know the creation of planing book & the creation of Macro workbench playing behind planning book .
To create planning book.
To create Macro & how to relate a planning book with the macro.
Step by step process from simple to complex .
Different process to programe a macro .
I can understant ( rather I know ) how to relate a badi (Enhancement spot ) to a macro & but please guide me how to define a row of a planing book : such as how to define the row 'Avg Weekly Forcast' of planing book in a single varriable as 'ZAVGWKFST' to capture it at badi in the parameter I_T_LINES[]
(component - FELDH).
To create a custom Button in a planning book & how to program.
I have many broken links while I try to know it by myself.

Hi amitabha,
Please find below the detailed steps to define a planning book:
A planning book defines the content and the layout of the interactive planning screen. Planning books are used in Demand Planning and Supply Network Planning. They allow you to design the screen to suit individual planning tasks. A planning book is based on a planning area. You can create several user-specific data views in a planning book. In this step, you create a planning book for Demand Planning.
Procedure
1.     Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
SAP SCM menu     Advanced Planning and Optimization  Demand Planning  Environment  Current settings  Define Planning Book
Transaction code     /SAPAPO/SDP8B
2.     Enter the planning book DP_001 and choose Create.
The Planning Book Wizard dialog box is displayed.
3.     Make the following entries:
Field name     User action and values
Planning Book     Enter the planning book DP_001
Planning book text     Demand Planning
Planning area     Select the planning area DP_001 and choose Enter
Manual Proportion Maintenance     X
Promotion     X
Univariate forecast     X
4.     Choose Continue.
5.     Assign the following key figures from planning area to the planning book by using drag and drop or choose Add all new Key Figures to add all key figures:
Description     Value     Comment
History     9AVHISTORY     Relevant for Scenario MTS
Forecast     9ADFCST     Relevant for Scenario MTS and VMI
Promotion 1     9APROM1     Relevant for Scenario MTS
Forecast (addition.)     9AAFCST     Relevant for Scenario MTS
Planned Price     9APRICEFC     Relevant for Scenario MTS
Sales Forecast     9AREVFC     Relevant for Scenario MTS
Production (Planned)     9APPROD     Relevant for Scenario MTS
Manual Correction     9AMANUP     Relevant for Scenario MTS
Additional Field 1     9AADDKF1     Relevant for Scenario VMI
Additional Field 2     9AADDKF2     Relevant for Scenario VMI
Additional Field 3     9AADDKF3     Relevant for Scenario MTS
Additional Field 4     9AADDKF4     Relevant for Scenario MTS
Additional Field 5     9AADDKF5     Relevant for Scenario MTS
The Proportional factor APODPDANT key figure is automatically added to your planning area when you create the planning area. You do not have to add this key figure yourself and assign it to the planning book in this step. When you create the respective view, this key figure will be automatically there for your selection.
6.     Choose Continue.
7.     Assign the following characteristics from the planning area to the planning book by using drag and drop:
Description     Value
APO Location     9ALOCNO
APO Product     9AMATNR
Brand     9ABRAND
Sales Organization     9AVKORG
APO Destination Loc.     9ALOCTO
     The characteristic 9AVERSION (APO Planning Version) will be added to the planning book automatically after you complete this step.
9.     Choose Continue to go to the Data View tab (the Key Fig. Attrib tab is available in the change mode only after you have completed the planning book).
10.     On the Data view tab; enter the following values:
Field name     User action (Scenario MTS)     User action (Scenario VMI)
Data view     DP_Standard     VMI_Standard
Data view description     Demand Planning     Demand Planning
TB profile ID (future)     DP_4Weeks_5Month     DP_4Weeks_5Month
TB profile ID (history)     DP_12Month     DP_12Month
Status     3 (Changeable)     3 (Changeable)
11.     Choose Enter.
12.     Select Visible and select the date as of which you wish the past planning horizon to be visible when this data view is opened.
13.     Choose Continue, and assign the following key figures from the planning book to the data view for either the MTS or the VMI scenario, keeping the same order as in the table:
Make-to-Stock
Key Figures      Description
9AVHISTORY     History
9ADFCST     Forecast

Vendor-Managed Inventory
Key Figures      Description
9AADDKF1     Additional Field 1
9AADDKF2     Additional Field 2
9ADFCST     Forecast
14.     Choose Complete.
15.     When the Planning Wizard prompt appears, choose Yes to complete the planning book and data view.
16.     On the initial screen, change the planning book you have just created by choosing Edit.
17.     If you are installing the VMI scenario, continue with step 21 (entering a free text for the key figures).
If you are installing the Make-to-Stock scenario, repeat steps 9 to 12 to create the following views:
Views     View Description     Key Figures
DP_CLP     COLLABORATIVE DEMAND PLANNING
          History
          Forecast
          Forecast (additional)
DP_RELEASE     DEMAND PLANNING - RELEASE VIEW
          Manual Correction
18.     On the Data View tab page, specify the following TB profile IDs for the DP_RELEASE view,
Field name     User action and values
TB profile ID (future)     DP_12Month
TB profile ID (history)     blank
19.     Create the remaining views for the Make-to-Stock scenario according to the steps 9-12:
Views     View Description     Key Figures
DP_LOGISTICS     DEMAND PLANNING - LOGISTICS VIEW
          Forecast
          Production (Planned)
DP_SALES     DEMAND PLANNING - SALES VIEW
          History
          Forecast
          Forecast (addition.)
          Planned Price
          Sales Forecast
          Manual Correction
DP_PROP     DEMAND PLANNING - PROPORTIONAL FACTOR VIEW     Proportional Factor
To modify the proportional factors manually, you need to create a separate data view containing only the APODPDANT key figure to control the authorization to change these factors. This key figure is a default value in the view and is thus invisible, so you do not need to assign any key figure from the right list in this view.
20.     Choose Complete.
21.     Go to the Key fig. attributes tab, select the FreeText radio button and make the following entries for each key figure. Choose Save Setting after entering the data for each key figure (depending on your scenario).
Key Figures     Free Text     Relevant for scenario

Steps to create macros in macro wrokbench:
3.7     Creating Macros (SAP APO)
Use
You can use advanced macros to perform complex calculations quickly and easily. Macros are executed either directly by the user or automatically at a predefined point in time. When defining advanced macros, you work in a special desktop environment known as the MacroBuilder.
In total, four macros are created in the Demand Planning building block. They are all defined for the planning book DP_001. You create three macros for forecast calculation according to the following instruction. The chapter Creating the Macro for Consensus-Based Planning describes how to create the alert macro for consensus-based planning.
In the DP_STANDARD view of the planning book DP_001, you create two macros:
The first macro is used for the standard and consensus-based planning. The system calculates the arithmetic average of Statistical Forecast, Sales Forecast and Logistics Forecast, the result of average forecast data plus Promotion Data is inserted in the Final Forecast cell. It enables the user to consider the forecast input and the promotion plan from different departments within the company. The planner can make manual adjustments and enter the final agreed forecast into the Final Forecast cell. All of this information can be shown in the planning book screen.
The second macro multiplies the Final forecast data with the Planned price to calculate the sales volume. The third macro is an alert macro used for highlighting exceptional situations in consensus-based planning.
In the DP_SALES view of the planning book DP_001, you create the fourth macro. This macro multiplies the Final forecast data with the Planned price to calculate the sales volume, which is the same as the one in the standard view.
3.7.1     Creating Macros for the Standard View
1.     Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
SAP SCM menu     Advanced Planning and Optimization  Demand Planning à Environment à Current settings à Define Planning Book

MRP Run can not create Planned order to Sales order

Hi,
I have a problem with planning run to sales order. We have a configurable material which have make to order strategy. MRP Run does not create planned order to some of our sales order. I think it has relation with schedule lines but i can not understand the problem.
If schedule line has 1 as confirmed quantity MRP run can not plan but 0 as confirmed quantity MRP Run creates planned order. How can i solve this problem?
Regards,
techmastere

Hi,
Order for which qty is confirming, check which schedule line is determined and which requirement type system is determining.
then in VOV6 for schedule line tick mark availability check & Transfer of requirement
for requirement class OVZG tick mark availability check & Transfer of requirement
Note: if schedule line is not relevent for availability check & ToR then system always defaul confirm quantity.

Error while creating planned order in product view

I am getting following error when I try to create planned order for a product in a Location manually in product view using /SAPAPO/RRP5.
Error occurred while creating order
Message no. /SAPAPO/RRP251
I checked the product and resource. Everything looks good.
Block is available in the resource WMP1_2041_001 for characteristics specified in planned order.
Product master and PDS look good.
In the planning log, I see the following error message.
Plan explosion failed for product LBRA1050-661 in location 2041
Message no. /SAPAPO/RRP718
I have not found SAP notes for above error.
Can you pl let me know what this is due to?
Thanks,
Srini

Srini,
The message was created as a result of several notes, such as 1582997. There are others.
The implication is that you have an invalid source somewhere in your BOM. Maybe a bad component part, maybe a bad transportation lane, maybe an invalid BOM, or maybe a bad PPM/PDS.
If you can't find the problem using logical troubleshooting steps, have one of your programmers debug. Have him put breakpoints in FM /SAPAPO/RRP_PLORD_CREATE . If you are particularly lucky, you will find a developer that understands German, because all the internal comments in this FM are in German.
Best regards,

Error while creating Planned order in SAP PP

Hi ,
I am creating planned order for finished material and system has given below error - Please specify the order deadlines in ascending order.
SAP Message Error- Message no. 61009 Please specify the order deadlines in ascending order
Very first planned order get saved and we declare the production and business completed
Now creating second planned order , while saving system giving above error.
I am Taking Planned Order Profile LA -Stock order
Any solution ...?
Thanks in advance !!!
Deepak.

Hello Deepak,
Please adjust the order dates in the scheduling of the planned order. In normal production scenario operation completed end of the night shift and order finish date is possibly moved one day in the future for this reason we need to set the operation timing in 24:00:00 format
In your issue change date like this
End date : 30.06.2014
Start : 31.05.2014
Opening date : 31.05.2104
Check with this date, it’s work for you
