Sort WBS element in project hierarchy

Hi
Our WBS element does by sequential numbering
Eg: Level 1         2A.08
      Level 2         2A.08.01
      Level 3         2A.08.01.01
      Level 2         2A.08.02
      Level 3         2A.08.02.01
In transaction CJ02 is there any way we could sort the WBS element field so that it is in ascending or descending order? We are trying to explore a faster way to tidy up the hierarchy other than moving the line items manually.
Hope someone has some solution to this.
Thank you.

Hi
Go to CJ02 and allow the "Billing / Revenue" Check box in the WBS MAster...

How to populate WBS element and Project definition in Additional Tab

Hi,
I have a 2 requirements
1) we need to populate WBS element and Project definition of an order in PM
IW 32 trasnaction (Additional data tab).
2)Also i need to program settlement rules in CJ02 for WBS elements .
How do i approach ? when i do manually it is taking the values in IW 32 when the status is released.
So i think first we need to chnage the Status from Created to released and then start working on step 1 and Step 2
Kindly suggest.
Thanks,
Pradeep.

Problem one solved ......
Basically we need to put the status of WBS elememnts and then write a BDC for additional data tab.

WBS element AND project

All,
This is my question.
1 WBS Element can be assigned to multiple projects ?
I have seen in table PRPS table WBS Element is only the key field , But it related PROJ using the field PSPHI .
In that case it means there will 1 WBS Element can be assigned to multiple projects ?

I am little confused in that,
I have custom table that only one key as WBS, and i need to link WBS element to project . So this part i little confused about the Multiple project thing.

Unable to edit WBS element once Project is released

Hi,
I am unable to edit the WBS element once Project has been released. Is this SAP standard behaviour? Is yes, is there a way we can make this editable and is it advisable?
Please advice.
Regards,
Sophia Xavier

Hi,
The point is I am able to edit the WBS element before I have released the Project. But, once I have released the project the WBS element is blocked for changes.
Infact the WBS element is editable until the higher level WBS element is released. But finally when I release the Project and system status changes to REL, the WBS element is blocked for changes i.e., it is not editable.I am just trying to understand if this is standard behaviour of SAP that WBS element becomes ineditable only overall Project is released. If the WBS element has to be changed after release, is there a way out?

Problem in loading multiple lev1 and multiple lev2 WBS elements in projects

Hi guys,
I've a requirement to load (from file) projects with multiple level 1 and multiple level 2 WBS elements. I'm using CJ01 recording to load projects in step 1 and it loads all the projects successfully.
Next I need to load WBS elements of level 1 & level 2 under each projects and also level 1 & level 2 must be linked correctly. Now in this step what I'm doing is that am doing the CJ02 recording to load WBS elements (irrespective of levels) under each projects. But as in the data file, the sequence of WBS records are not guarranteed to be in the exact sequence of hierarchy of WBS elements, what's happening is that though WBS elements are getting loaded successfully, but level 1 & 2 are not getting linked to each other correctly. So the hierarchy is broken. Please help how to resolve this issue like how to design the LSMW correctly.
Alternatively we can use CJ20N for loading the correct hierarchy but here we need to select correct project/level 1/leve2 etc which is difficult in case if a project doesn't have level 2 or level 1.
Please suggest the easiest design.
Cheers guys.

Hi,
You have to use levels in recording.
I think using CJ01 only you can upload all the projects with hierarchy.
Just arrange the file records accordingly;
Level 1----
WBSE 1
Level 2----
WBSE 1.1
Level 2----
WBSE 1.2
Level 2----
WBSE 1.3
Level 1----
WBSE 2
Level 2----
WBSE 2.1
Level 2----
WBSE 2.2
Level 2----
WBSE 2.3
Now, hierarchy will be correct.

Materials for Single wbs Element from project/Plant stock

Hi to all,
I would like to have the following scenarios for the single Project.
1) Some Activities in the single WBS Element will be using the Materials for specific to the Project. So MRP will be generated for the Project and PR,PO,Goods receipt will be done.
2) In the same WBS Element of some activity, wants to consume materials from the Plant stock. For this we donu2019t want to run MRP. From the reservation no, we want to take the materials for project use.
I have a single Network profile and I donu2019t want to create anymore.
Understand from movement type 411, we can take the materials from unrestricted Plant stock to project. Is there any other way/any config I need to check in account assignment category to fulfill the requirement to consume from Plant stock and also to use Project stock in a single profile.
Regards
N.Raju

Hi,
that is the only option, Std. SAP does not support for unrestricted plant stock ( for Project MRP or availability check).
same option-
1) transfer free stock( plant stock) to respective WBSE
2) Run MRP
3) Consume material.

Transferring wbs elements bewteen project definitions

I have created many wbs elements under a single project definitions and now have financial posting against them. Is it possible to transfer some of the wbs elements to a new project defintion?

Rich, there is nothing called transferring WBSE from one Project Definition to another. But you can do these.
1. Delete the WBSE, if there are no postings happend, and then create the WBSE with same id for the other project Definition.
2. Rename the WBSE id(for which the acutal cost exists) to some id, and then create the WBSE with the same id to other proejct definition..(i think it should work, check and come back)
But, I would like to ask you onething, why you want to mix up WBSE coding in a project. Suppose if your project Definition is A.001, then it is the good practice to maintain the WBSE which follows the code A.001.01, A.001.02 etc., From your post I understand that you want to create A.001 as project and A.001.01, A.111.01 as your WBS Elements. Why do you want to do like this?

Transfer WBS elements to Project Definitions

I have created many wbs elements under a single project definition and want to know if it is possible to transfer some of them to a new project defintion?

i think you are talking about something not related to Business Objects, are you asking about SAP BW?
kindly put your post to the right forum to get some usefull answer.

How do we get complete hierarchy for a WBS element??

Hi All,
Is there any FM to get complete hierarchy for a WBS element??
Or any other method that would achieve this requirement ??
Eg:
C.00103.1
C.00103.1.1
C.00103.1.2.3
C.00103.2
C.00103.2.1 etc
If i give C.00103.1, all the WBS elements in the hierarchy should be displayed.
Any pointers are of great help.

Prathima

Hi,
Available Methods
Getinfo : Read detailed information about WBS [ BAPI_PROJECT_GETINFO ]
Maintain : BAPI: Project maintenance [ BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN ]
SaveReplica : Replicate work breakdown structure (ALE) [ BAPI_PROJECT_SAVEREPLICA ]
The WBS hierarchy object type defines the hierarchy of the WBSelements. A project definition always has exactly one hierarchy. If theposition of a WBS element changes, the whole hierarchy has to berebuilt. Therefore, the WBS hierarchy object type has only one command:
Create. Every WBS element receives exactly one entry in the table parameter IWbsHierarchieTable with which it defines its position.
Command: Create
Use this command to create or change a WBS element hierarchy for aproject definition. Enter the WBS hierarchy object type and the Create
command in the table of the IMethodProject parameter. The commandrefers to all entries in the table of the IWbsHierarchieTable parameterthat contains the data for the data for the hierarchy. Each entry inthe IWbsHierarchieTable refers to a WBS element that describes its position relative to the other WBS elements.
Example
- Positioning WBS elements TRAINING , TRAINING.1 and TRAINING.2 . (WBS elements TRAINING.1 and TRAINING.2 are subordinate toWBS element TRAINING. WBS element TRAINING1 is positioned on the left of TRAINING.2.)

How to set CRTD- REL for a project consist of more than 100 WBS elements

Dear Experts,
Now our clients is encounting such a problem:
There is a WBS structure consists of ONE Level 1 WBS code, serveral Level 2 WBS code and hundreds of Level 3 WBS code. All the Level 2 WBS are created automatically according to the data transferred from another system via interface. Level 1 and Level 3 WBS can be created mannually in project builder. And all the status of Level 2 WBS are set to CRTD once they are created automatically.
Level 1 WBS(Let's call it A) has already been set to REL. Only one Level 2 WBS (let's call it A-00) was still CRTD because *it was created after level 1 WBS A was set to REL.* And there are as much as 120 Level 3 WBS(let's call it from A-00-01 to A-00-120) was created under Level 2 WBS A-00 mannually. Now how can I set all the level 3 WBS status from "CRTD" to "REL"?
I have tried following two methods but both of them are failed.
A. Directly set Level 2 WBS A-00 or Level 3 WBS A-00-01to REL (in both CJ20n and CJ02) but the system show a Message No. BS013 falut:
Object A has system status REL, According to this status, transaction "Particially release project" is not allowed"
B. Set Level 1 WBS A to REL(in both CJ20n and CJ02) but the system runs extremly slow and finally the feedback comes to a ABAP error of "Run time error" after more than 30 minutes.
Did any of you face similar situation? Any suggestion for this issue are appreciated.
Regards,
Atom
Edited by: Atom2009 on Dec 4, 2009 1:36 PM

Check the settlement profile used in the WBS elements and project. The configuration could be such that the settlement rules are limited.
Maximum number of distribution rules
Maximum number of distribution rules for each settlement rule.
You cannot settle receivers for which there are no distribution rules.
The IMG path for this in PS is Project System -> Costs -> Automatic and Periodic Allocations -> Settlemennt -> Settlement Profile -> Create Settlement Profile.
Hope this helps.
