SAP PS - Incorrect Costs reflecting
Hi Gurus
I'm new to SAP PS & cProjects so am battling to understand this error.
I have created a project through cProjects. All of the resources I have utilized for the project share the same Rate code (X01) which has cost of $260.00 & revenue of $330.00
When I view table DPR_RATES_MAP I find only cost rates of $200.00 & $260.00 Depending on the Org Unit.
I have captured time against the project for one of the resources using CAT2 and have approved this time.
Have then run CATS_APPR_LITE to approve the time.
And then SE38 - DPR_CATS_CPR_TRANSF to transfer the confirmation time to cProjects.
When I now run report CATS_DA the cost rate appears as $240.00, not $260.00 as I'm expecting.
Where could this rate be picked up from.
Many Thanks in advance

Resolved.
It was the Activity Type/Price Plan that was being used.

VPRS incorrect cost when using Split Valuation
Hello,
We are using split valuation thus each valuation type has a separate moving average price. When creating a billing doc, my pricing procedure is called which includes VPRS. The problem is the cost returned is not for the correct valuation type which is passed in the billing document (Field BWTAR). The cost returned in pricing is the moving average without any valuation type. Does anyone know of any configuration to calculate VPRS based on the batch/valuation type provided in the billing document?
My pricing procedure includes condition VPRS which is set to SUTOT = B, Reqt = 4 and statistical. The condition type is set to defaults (Cond Class = B, Calculation Type = C, Condition Category = G). The article master has field Price Control set to V and split valuation is enabled.
The billing document type being used is FP (POS Interface)
The item category is DLN
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
PierreHello Pierre
I am not totally knowledgeable on this subject but want to give my best shot.
I think you need to ensure that the system takes (redetermines) the cost from Valuation segment in the material master.
1) So make the cond category a T (Moving price). Don't change VPRS but copy it and set up ZPRS and then use it in the pricing procedure as an alternative to VPRS.
2) You may also need to work on the copy control- Item cat level- especially Pricing Rules- Probably you need to set up a custom one which says 'keep manual prices as they are, but redetermine cost". Then you need to set up USEREXIT_PRICING_RULE from Program RV61AFZA to make this work. . Use OSS note 24832 to set up your new pricing rule.
3) Also check out 'Price Source' field- in copy control again- to see if it helps you achieve your objective.
Also about VPRS, OSS note 547570 says "If the condition control (KSTEU) is set to 'H', the cost was taken from the goods issue. If it set to 'A', it was redetermined from the valuation segment of the material master, in case of 'D' or 'E' it was copied from the preceding document:. But I don't know how you can use this information.
Go through these OSS notes and those mentioned within for a good idea of VPRS.

Incorrect cost/revenue value show in cProjects
Hi all,
I'm working with cProjects and PS.
The problem is: costing value showed in cProjects is incorrect(its 10 times bigger than that value in PS), however the value showed in PS is correct.
For example:
1 engineer has cost/revenue rate : 10usd/15usd /Hour
He work 10hours for a Task
in PS (ECP, CJ40,..)we will see the cost/revenue is: 100usd/150usd
however in cProjects (Tab: Accounting) we will see the cost/revenue is: 1000/1500
Please help me to solve that problem, it's very urgent.
Thank you very much
Duc NguyenHI Duc,
It sounds like a curreny problem with the decimal place, would you please check the customizing item :
SAP NetWeaver -> General Settings -> Currencies -> Set Decimal Places for Currencies
Please check in BOTH systems (cProject & ERP), if there is any difference for the USD?
Kind regards,

Finance Postings with incorrect cost elements assigned
Hello,
I am implementing the SAP Plant Maintenance Module (PM) at my Company and Iu2019m running into issues with the finance team regarding the finance (FI) postings during the material goods issue (GI) to the order (MIGO) and financial settlement (KO88) of all order costs.
When a material is issued to the order via MIGO a material document is created with two financial GL postings; credit the inventory account and debit the material expense account. The posting made to the parts expense account contains a reference to a profit center and the PM Order. However my FI Group is saying the posting to the parts expense account must be accompanied by a Cost Center. My understanding of this is that the PM Order itself is an interim cost collector which is why itu2019s referenced in the posting and not a cost center. Knowing that once the settlement run is executed for the PM Order the costs collected in the order will be settled to the appropriate cost elements. Once settlement occurs the FI postings are generated for the materials and the costs are moved to the cost center of the equipment/PM Order. The two material postings generated are; credit to the material expense account (offsets the G.I. posting above) and a debit to the expense account along with the cost center of the equipment. The debit posting to the expense account is the posting that carries the cost center assignment and the one which I believe my finance team is looking however as I said above they expect the cost center assignment in all postings to the parts expense account.
Can anyone tell me what the SAP Standard approach is for CO postings during a Goods Issue to a PM Order and the CO postings for materials during settlement? Is it possible to post to a cost center and PM Order at the same and for what business reason would this be done?
Thank you,
MikeHi,
Spare parts or components are the company assets. So while issuing those components for consumption, asset account for materials would get value reduced & expense account for the material would get value added. Here no picture for Cost Center.
Only while doing the settlement, cost center will come into picture by getting the value from order to the Cost center.

Changes to SAP BI master data reflecting in Crystal Filters
Hello All
We are looking at a scenario where Crystal Reports is used to report off SAP BI. One of the characteristics in BI is used as a filter in Crystal. If new master data value is added to this characteristic in BI, is it automatically reflected in the list of values for the filter in Crystal?
We are facing some issues with this feature even when we use dynamic filters in Crystal, please advise.
Thanks
ThankamHi,
when you create a report on top of the BW query the CR Designer is reading the list of values from the system and the point of creating the report. There is also a registry setting which you can use to limit the number of values being considered.
branch :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\SAP\BWQueryReportWrapper
key : PickListSizeUnlimited and MaxPickListSize
When the report is published to the BusinessObjects server and viewed online with the SAP Authentication the list of values is dynamic read from the SAP backend.

SAP B1 Job Costing Report Customisation
Hi all,
I have a client using SAP Job Costing add-on from Enprise.
However, I can't find any documentation of using Enprise Report Writer. Does anyone know where I can get hold a copy of this?Thansk for responding.
I am testing it on my own laptop. It is for testing purpose at this stage because I need to evaluate the time of using Enprise report writer to develop some reports.
By pressing F1, I do get some information. however, I keep getting problem when trying to connect to Enprise Report Writer.
The connection is good when setting up the connection.
However, once the connection is set up, it displays user id = manager by default, and I keep getting login failure when puttng in manager password.
Yes, yes, if I put in manager (user id) and manager (password), I have no problem logging in to the company directly.
Any advice will be great. -
SAP Query - material costs split by labour/ingredients
Hi,
Is it possible to create a SAP query to show the following;
Material / Lab unit cost / Material lab cost
I'd also like to be able to select r show 1 or 2 cost variants.
I essentially need a list of materials and their costs broken down into their constituent parts.
How can I do this please?
ThanksHi Commandante
You can not have WIP split in the FI GL accounts.....
However, there is a work around possble which can give you the break up in report
You need to do small tweaking to get WIP by cost component
1. Define as many LINE IDs as your cost components in OKTZ
2. For eg: If you have cost components like raw material, packing material, labor, machine cost.... then define similar LINE IDs and do the relevant configuration for WIP as per these line IDs.... Assign the specific cost elements in WIP config instead of masking....
3. Assign cost comp str in OKN0 and choose product group = Material Group.. Transport it to production
4. Run KKRV to collect the data
5. Now run the WIP reports in KKO0
When you execute your KKO0 reports, WIP would be with the same breakup as your cost components
This is a tried and tested approach!!

SAP Portal changes not reflect in all the servers without reboot?
Dear SDN Members
We have one sap ep 7.0 eh1 main instance and 4 other portal instances.every time we tranport any portal develpment work such as epa packages, we need to restart all the instances to reflect the new changes.can you please suggest me
a solution if exists to avoid bouncing of all instances when a portal development work is transported.
Why does the changes not reflect in all the servers without the reboot??
Thanks
ChandraThanks for the quick response kenny, i wonder if we can configure any parameters in UME
to avoid bouncing of all the instances. please let me know if you have any other suggestions.
actually we have a central portal instance and 4 other portal servers connected through a
load balancer.Any tranport we move to central instance should refelect the changes in all
other portal instances.But we need to restart all the instances to see the new changes.
We are trying to find a solution if availbel which prevents server-restarts after each transport.
Thanks

New table / field in SAP MDM not being reflected in SAP EP
Hi,
I have added a lookup- flat table in MDM and added a field corresponding to this table in my main Products table.
I have maintained data in both the main table and the look up table thru Data manager
Problem:
I want to populate this field through the SAP EP. I am using std MDM iView Details template. When I check the drop down to select the table, I see only the ones which had come with the MDM std business content. The added tables/ fields are not visible on the portal to select :(.
Can you help me out Please? Are there some settings that need to be done?
Regards,
AlpanaAs a mandatory requirement after completing the deployment process, the Web Application Server should be restarted for the changes made by the deployment to take effect and appear in the Portal.
Have you restarted Web Application Server after deployment?
Also check, User Mapping for the Connected MDM System
Search for the User (Portal User) which needs to be mapped to the appropriate MDM User.
It is quite interesting that you are getting all other tables in std i-view template except newly added.
It could be also because you have already there connection of EP with MDM before that table and new field exists in MDM.
And it is showing same existing table and fields, I mean not reflected now newly added table and field. I would suggest you to create the MDM connection with EP from scratch. Just give MDM System Name and ID, MDM Server, Repository, Language, Creating an Alias for the connected MDM System, User Mapping and connection Test for the Connected MDM System.
May be it result in reflecting newly added Table and field which is not visible in EP as of now. Just give it a try.
Hope it helps...
Thanks and Regards,

Sap kernel update not reflected on disp+work
Hi,
I try to update kernel patch for my Dev server on Windows 2003 server from 133 to 185.
This is 1st time i try to do kernel patch on windows server. I want to change the kernel to 185 by follow "How to do a Manual Kernel Upgrade of an SAP Server" - by Hemant Kumar. And other kernel upgrade notes and guide from internet too.
Is there anything else i should do? Update profile or anything? BTW... im not sure if i put the new kernel update on the right folder. This is because, i copy the folder \usr\sap\SID\sys\exe\uc\NTAMD64. Even if put the same thing on \usr\sap\SID\DVEBMGS00\exe\, the same thing will still will occured.
So now, no matter what kernel that i put on. Apps server still run but disp+work and SM51 still not reflected to the new kernel but still show kernel no 133.
Any advice? Thanks in advance.Hi all,
Thanks for the reply
Currently i tried all the steps above. But for latest one. This is what i did.
-I stop the apps server.
-Copy the original kernel no 133 at \usr\sap\SID\sys\exe\uc\NTAMD64 as a backup.
-Then overwrite the old 133 with the new one. Change their owner, security.
-Restart apps server using the sapMMC and start saposcol services.
I try to run the command disp+work at Drive:\usr\sap\SID\sys\exe\uc\NTAMD64. But it still show 133.
Then i try to check on the RUN folder in C:\usr\sap\SID\sys\exe\ as what Anindya Bose said earlier. The files still not update automatically. So I bring down the apps server again. So i copy the old Run133 as a backup before i overwrite with the new Run185 executeable files. Then start the apps server again.
I still get the kernel no 133 on disp+work command. However I notice that a few files in Drive:\usr\sap\SID\DVEBMGS00\exe\ has been update to a new 185.
I want to confirm. I find out that in Drive:\usr\sap\SID\sys\exe\uc\NTAMD64 files like stopsap, startsap sapstart and many more files is still not update to 185. File version is still 133 even after all of those steps above. Is this the cause of this problem? Any file that i missout to download somewhere? BTW, I update this job only by using the SAPEXEDB_185-20001356.SAR files.
Thank you.
