Tonnetti,
If you want 2payers to be possible in the same sales order, you have to include the material as two line items. Then go to each line item, the partners tab and then change the payer there. So now the header partner will have 2payers, and there will be different payers for each line item.
Now you can do a delivery or billing as needed. For a single sales order, two invoices will be created as the payers are different. These invoices can be send to respective payers and the payment can be processed from these payers.
Hope this helps for your scenario.
Reward if this helps.

Need help in Point-of-Sales software developing guide

i was required to developed a new Point-of-Sales software for my new company. however, i do not know where to start. i'm new to POS software, so if anyone who has experience in Point-of-sales software development, plz drop a hint or two for me.
i guess the biggest problem for me is to detecting and communicating with the Barcode Scanner, Receipt printer, Cash Drawer and Pole Display. i would appreciate for the advise on how to achieve this.
tks

well, the things is like this:
the existing system is actually maintain by the ex-staff of the company. however, due to some unknown circumstances, all of them left within a very short period of time. and now, we were hired.
the whole things a mess. bugs everywhere. so the only solution the management would accept is to re-develop the whole POS and Inventory system. but non of us have any experience in developing such system and we don't have any documentation for the existing system. Now the management would like to see a prototype, a simple POS system that can perform simple operation - scan barcode, display the price at the pole display, 'kick-out' the cash drawer and print the receipt.
i have done a bit part of research, download some Java-based POS such as JPOS, JavaPOS, and FreeMercator. but i don't really get the idea of how to communicate with the devices. and now the management decided to change all the POS peripherals, so i can tell which brand that we are going to use.
for your question:
Do you already have an inventory control system in place? yes, but no good. no doc as well.
If so you'll want to integrate with that, which could get hairy depending on the system. What's your intended architecture? each store will have their own database. however, they will export their data to the HQ every morning before business hour. the export process of the current system is to extract the data from the database to MS Access DB, then send to the HQ through email.
May I ask why you chose Java to develop this system in?Linux + Postgre + Java = minimum development cost. the company wanted to keep cost at the minimum level.
actually, i do not worry bout the inventory system. all i care is how to communicate with the devices, because this is the first time that i deal with all these POS devices.
besides, i'm not sure if i have to pay attention to any thing like drivers, or whatever standard, etc... and it will be the most appreciate if you can show me (or links to websites) some sample of how to detect and communicating the devices.
lastly, many tks to you for your advice ;)
have a nice day

Error in uploading Sales plan in APO

Dear experts,
User is trying to upload the sales plan in /SAPAPO/SDP94 transaction.
After selecting the file when we click on "CHECK" ,System is throwing an error message that "call screen (not modal) in dialog box not allowed"
please find the screen shots for reference.
Kindly let me know if anybody has faced this kind of issue before,and help me how to rectify it.
Thanks in advance.

LIFA maybe deprecated but it still has usefulness and some prefer it over LINX for various reasons. But yeah new projects should seriously consider moving to LINX.
That being said if you are using an Uno or a Mega I've already compiled the binary and can upload it using this tool.

Sales Planning

Hi friends,
I need your help with the following issue:
The client requirement is to register in SAP a Sales Plan, based on the quantities they expect to sell during the planning period, they want to plan quantities as well as sales revenues. I can plan sales revenues using Profit Center Accounting but I dont know in which module I could plan quantities.
Thanks in advance,
Gerardo.

COPA.
More precisely the flow will be use:
COPA Planning> MRP>SOP>Cost center planning-> P&L estimate

COPA Sales Planning issue

Hi,
We are uploading COPA sales planning price and quantity to derive the Revenue.
Revenue = sales planning price * quantity
Currency = USD (as default 2 decimal places)
In Excel file we maintained planning price = USD 1.561 and Sales Quantity = 50000.
The expected results in KEPM after upload is = 1.561 x 50000 = 78050.
Once uploaded the results in KEPM shows:
Planning price = USD 1.560 & Quantity = 50000
The results is = 78000.
FYI - the planning layout is Integrated Excel and field for Sales Planning Price have been set to 3 decimals.
This have caused differences in reporting. Is there a way to make SAP calculation accept 3 decimals instead of 2 decimals.

KEPM will display the currency decimal places based on settings in table TCURX. In this case, only 2 decimal places allowed for USD even though the planning layout have been set to >2.

Sales order item Qty check with sale plan qty

Dear all
How its poosible - While creating sales orer system should check sales order item qty, delivery date    with sales plan qty for that period. If total sales order requirement qty greater than sales plan qty then system should give error msg. System not consider stock & inward / outward mvt . only check plan qty.
in details
1> Create Weekly sales plan   - w.r.t Material & Plant   - ( T code u2013 MC87 )
Eg .   Material - FG001   , Plant 1001 ,   Week 11.2011 - 2000 Kg
2> Now creating sales order . system check sales order item qty & plan qty as per delivery date or week
Eg . i> Sales order no. 1 - delivery week u2013 W 11.2011   , item u2013 FG001 ; Plant u2013 1001 ; Qty u2013 1500 kg
Requirement : System check u2013 delivery week u2013 11 according to that sales plan qty for that material & plant is 2000 kg ;
total actual Sales order qty = 1500 kg . so condition is fulfill system allow to create sales order.
Eg. ii> Sales order no. 2 u2013 Delivery week u2013 11.2001 , item u2013 FG001 ; Plant u2013 1001 ; Qty u2013 1000 kg
Requirement : System check u2013 delivery week u2013 11 according to that sales plan qty for that material & plant is 2000 kg ; total actual Sales order qty = 1500 + 1000kg =2500 kg . so condition is failed , ( sales requirement qty > sales plan qty ) system should not allow to create sales order, gives error msg.
Thanks & Regards
Pramod

Hello,
I have made something like that, to replace the defaut Check by one that check purchase order shipping date.. Here is a exemple code for trapping :
You must place it in SBO_Application_ItemEvent
if ((pVal.FormTypeEx == "139") & (pVal.EventType == SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_VALIDATE) & (pVal.ItemUID == "38") & (pVal.ColUID == "11") & (pVal.Before_Action == true) & (pVal.InnerEvent == false))
                CheckAvailability();
Don't forget to disable the SBO Check Availability in the document's config form.
Sorry for my poor english and good luck
Chris.

Getting error while doing sales planning in COPA

Hello Friends,
While i m doing the sales planning in COPA via KEPM, I am getting the dump for ABAP Feilds regarding Volume and Weight.
Error has been stated below.
Runtime Errors CONVT_OVERFLOW
Except. CX_SY_CONVERSION_OVERFLOW
Date and Time 19.03.2008 16:16:40
Short dump has not been completely stored (too big)
Short Text
Overflow when converting from "1.12036e+12"
What Happned?
Error in the ABAP Application Program
The current ABAP program "SAPLKEAB" had to be terminated because it has come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
Error analysis
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_OVERFLOW', was not caught in
procedure "GET_WEIGHT_AND_VOLUME" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
The reason for the exception is:
When attempting to convert the value "1.12036e+12", an overflow occurred.
As i m getting the ABAP Error while making the sales planning for Finished Product

My guess - because I don't know your system - is the system is looking for one particular type of value, but is being fed a different one. While trying to convert, the value foes into data overflow.
Check:
1. If the planning is in Alternative Units of measure and this alternative is well defined in the material master.
2. If a standard conversion routine has been assigned to any of the values and the conversion routine is not consistent with the data type / data element.
3. Check your upload file / data. Is there a column defined there that should contain data of a specific type (decimals, or number formats, etc.) but is not the case.
4. If all else fails, you need an ABAPer to decode the error for you.
Cheers.

Update COPA Sales Planning with LIS informations

Dear all,
I´d like to know if it´s possible to update the COPA planning with the information in the LIS tables.
My company already introduced the Sales Planning in the LIS system and now it´s required to reply this information in COPA tables. Of course, it´s possible to do it directly in COPA using the plannification tools, however I´ve reading that it´s possible to transfer data from LIS to COPA directly with a short customizing task.
Please, could you inform me about this process?
Thanks in advance.
ViTo

Hi,
You can transfer actual data from LIS to CO-PA using mass processing (MC8G).
1. For a mass processing job, make sure you run the 3 steps in the attached note 90292. Program RMCAMUS6 updates the LISPLF table with the PLOBJs (planning objects) of items to be processed. If this job is not run, table LISPLF is empty and you will get error MA367.
2. Make sure you have specified future and historical periods in your planning type (MC8B).
3. Make sure you have data in the infostructure and materials in the characteristics.
There is also additional information that could be interesting for you in the notes 80881 and 156972.

Transfer sales plan to md61

Dear Experts,
In my Scenario Sales Deptt. Update sales Scheduling Agreement in SAP By VA31 and then MRP is running & creating Planned orders .
Now We wants to change our Process ,
NOW Before MRP Run we wants to transfer Sales schedule to Demand management MD61 , Where we can manually change Production plan which is not equal to Sales delivery schedule .
To copy sales schedule , I am doing Edit > Copy Requirement > Sales Plan > Total sales
Here system do not copy plan and shows below given error
u201C No production plan exists for product group XYZ u201C
Please let me know that how to copy sales schedules in Demand management (MD61) .
Regards,
ashutosh

Ashutosh,
???? VA01 and VA31 are not plans, they are sales documents (execution). If your question is 'does SAP support a direct copy from sales documents (such as sales scheduling agreements) to planned independent requirements, the answer is no. It would make no sense. Sales documents usually consume planned independent requirements, depending upon your planning strategy.
If you want your production plan to be increased, for the reason of planned scrap/yield loss, you normally enter that yield loss quantity in one of the scrap or yield fields in either the Material Master, or in the Bill of Materials (depending upon your planning methods). In this way, every time MRP suggests a supply order (planned order), it will suggest quantities large enough to cover planned yield loss. It is normally considered a waste of time to have a planner manipulate these types of numbers manually for each iteration of the production plan.

http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_06/helpdata/EN/be/43bdd865f411d3b4e60004ac160649/frameset.htm
If your yield is totally unpredictable (according to your statements, this is not the case), then you would also consider using one of the standard planning tools (like Safety stock) to create some buffer stock.
Demand plans are usually not created for the sole purpose of accommodating yield issues. The most common reason to create a demand plan is to provide an orderly way to plan the entire supply chain in the most efficient manner. This is especially important when your customers demand a lead time that is longer than the total time to procure all raw materials and build all subassemblies for your finished goods.

Sales Plan in SD Module.

Hai SD Gurus,
Where Sales plan arrived in SD Module ? How it is transferred to PP Module.
Regards,
Mohanraju

Hi Mohanraju,
Sales Plans in Standard SOP
Various functions are available for creating and modifying sales plans in standard SOP:
Manual data entry
Arithmetic distribution functions
Copying data from SIS
Copying data from CO-PA
Forecasting sales quantities on the basis of past usage
Transferring product group proportions
Interactive graphics
For example : Forecasting Sales Quantities on basis of past usage
The forecast is one way to obtain planning data in Sales & Operations Planning (SOP). If necessary, you can change the forecast results after you have copied them to the planning table.
Place the cursor in the planning table on the key figure (if you are planning the characteristic view) or the characteristic (if you are planning the key figure view) for which you want to carry out a forecast.
Select the columns of the periods you want to be forecasted by choosing Edit ® Select.
See also Selecting Columns in the Planning Table.
Choose Edit ® Forecast. Or, if you are planning product group or material sales quantities in the standard planning table, choose Edit ® Sales plan ® Forecast ® Execute.
The Model Selection dialog box appears.
Specify the start and finish dates of the period for which you want to forecast data.
Specify the start and finish dates of the historical period on which the forecast is to be based.
In standard SOP, the forecast is based on consumption data (historical usage data). In flexible planning, the historical values on which the forecast is based are actual data; that is, the forecast is based on the key figure values updated to information structures from the operational applications. In the case of level-by-level planning, you can define the forecast profile such that the forecast is based on consumption data or on the consumption data of a reference material. You maintain the reference material in the material master record.
Analyze the time series and, if necessary, correct the historical values (see Analyzing the Time Series and Modifying the Historical Values). Alternatively, you can base the forecast on the corrected historical values of the previous forecast version by setting the Corr. vals indicator in the forecast profile.
Check to see if the forecast profile displays settings you want to use. If not, choose a different forecast profile with Forecast profile.
Do not try to choose a different forecast profile by using the possible entries button in the field Profile.
Choose Perform forecast.
The Forecast Parameters dialog box appears.
Define the forecast parameters for the selected model.
Choose Perform forecast.
A dialog box displaying the forecast results appears (see Interpreting the Forecast Results).
If the forecast results are not what you expected, check the settings in your forecast profile.
If necessary, change the forecast results (see Changing the Forecast Results).
Flag the forecast results for saving in one of two ways:
Choose Copy results if you want to copy the forecast results into the planning table.
Choose Save if you want to save the forecast results in the forecast versions database but do not want to copy the forecast results into the planning table. The prerequisite for saving the results to the forecast database is that you have not set the indicator Do not save to forecast DB in Customizing (the Customizing activity is Set parameters of info structures and key figures).
To save the forecast version, you must save the planning version by choosing Planning ® Save in the planning table.
Hope this helps you.

KPF6 : Enter Sales Planning

Hi,
Is it posssible to enter a planning by value and by quantity (Sales Planning) with Tcode KPF6 ?
Please If yes, How ?
Regards.

Normally Sales Planning is not done in KPF6. It is done in Profit Center Accounting, COPA..
Still you would want to do it, try to change / copy / create user defined layout, by copying the standard layout in KPG5 and check if you have Quantity field.

Sales planning : potential customers

Hi all,
I'm quite new at this, read some books, tried some examples. I need to make a sales planning query and to be honest didn't do so bad so far.
But I have some questions which seem quite obvious, but of which I didn't find any answers.
Suppose I have a sales representative and he forecasts to have 3 new customers for the next planned year.
How do you make a planning on those ?
You don't have any data about these.
For your existing customers, it's no problem, the data comes out of R/3, but what about potential customers ?
Do we need to create these in R/3 as being a kind of dummy-customers ? Or can I create these customers in one or an other way, in my real-time infocube ?
Thanks,
C

Hi Cornelia,
thanks, that's what I suspected.
I guess if I add a record with a customer number 999999 and some planning data that this will do the trick.
Kr,
Christophe

Sales Planning, Head Count Planning & Financial planning--Basics

Hi All,
Can someone please help me to understand below mentioned topic in terms of SAP BPC:
Sales planning:
GeneralBusiness Rules
Basic reports in Sales Planning
Head Count Planning:
General Business Rules
Basic reports in Head Count Planning
Financial Planning:
General Business Rules
Basic reports in Financial Planning
Thanks,
Red

Hi Red,
It is difficult to suggest anything on these topics. What you are asking is something on planning processes. No 2 company does the planning in the same way (though, they might belong to the same industry).
It is important to understand the requirements. You might not even required any business rules for Sales and Headcount planning.
It cannot be generalized. You need to understand the requirement, to assess whether you require any business rules or not. Every company has their own reporting requirements.
Hope this helps.

Sales Planning vs Demand management

Can any body explain how to process the sales planning vs Demand management !

Hi,
Demand Management : The function of Demand Management is to determine requirement quantities and delivery dates for finished products assemblies. Customer requirements are created in sales order management. To create a demand program, Demand Management uses planned independent requirements and customer requirements.
To create the demand program, you must define the planning strategy for a product. Planning strategies represent the methods of production for planning and manufacturing or procuring a product.
Using these strategies, you can decide if production is triggered by sales orders (make-to-order production), or if it is not triggered by sales orders (make-to-stock production).You can have sales orders and stock orders in the demand program. If the production time is long in relation to the standard market delivery time, you can produce the product or certain assemblies before there are sales orders. In this case, sales quantities are planned, for example, with the aid of a sales forecast.
Sales & Operations Planning (SOP) is a flexible forecasting and planning tool with which sales, production, and other supply chain targets can be set on the basis of historical, existing, and estimated future data. Rough-cut planning can also be carried out to determine the amounts of the capacities and other resources required to meet these targets.
Use SOP to streamline and consolidate your companys sales and production operations.
SOP is particularly suitable for long- and medium-term planning
SOP constitutes the planning functionality of the LIS information systems.
You pass on SOP plans to Demand Management (PP-MP-DEM) in the form of independent requirements. In turn, this data is fed to Master Production Scheduling (PP-MP-MPS) and Material Requirements Planning (PP-MRP).
An interface with Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) allows you to use CO-PA data as the basis for sales planning in SOP.
You can also pass on the results of SOP to Profitability Analysis (CO-PA), Cost Center Accounting (CO-OM-CCA), and Activity-Based Costing (CO-OM-CCA).
Application Link Enabling (CA-BFA-ALE) supports the distribution of data to different operating units in your enterprise
I hope this information will help you.
