Activity Custom Categories

Hi,
Small question in regards to Activity Categories:
We created a custom transaction type "Design" based on '0000' (Standard SAP). Once done, we created 2 custom categories: 'Graphical Design' and 'Structural Design'. We then assigned these categories to our transaction type "Design". However, in the customizing activity (SPRO > Assign Categories to Transaction Types) we are forced to assign 'MT - Meeting' to the Transaction as well.
Is there any way that when we create an activity, only the 2 custom categories are used and Meeting' is removed from the dropdown?
Thanks,
Sebastiaan.

Seems a refresh issue in SPRO. All is working fine again.

ABAP report for Active Product Categories by Vendor

Hi,
I have been trying to write an ABAP report in SRM to list all vendors attached to active product categories. My problem is identifying the active product categories. Can anyone help me identify these?
Regards,
Conor

Some alternative is in KSB1 (Cost center line item report) - you can change the layout and include offsetting account and its text.
But, in vendor line item report, if you want vendor number, vendor number, GL account number (offsetting) account and its text, then you should go with abap development.
Have a look at the following note, if really serves your purpose.
Note 1504612 - Line items: Offsetting account info (BAdI FI_ITEMS_CH_DATA)

How to get active customer owned equipment...

Hi All,
I am a fresher in ABAP and first time posting my query, My requirment is to fetch the equipment master data for only active customer owned equipment(ECUS as the only system status) . I tried searching the field 'status' from table 'JEST' but not able to understand the parameter for 'active custmer', no data is there as such 'ECUS'.
Please asist me for the same.
Thanks in advance,
Atul

Hi Atul,
What you see in teh JEST table is the internal id for the status ECUS. In case this status is internal (system status), check the table TJ02T to find the mapping of the internal id to the external representation (ECUS). In case ECUS is external (user), check table TJ30T.
Use the ID to check in table JEST the status is active for the object in question.
Kind regards,
Robert.

Balance sheet valuation not active (Customizing transaction OMWE)

Hi,
For FIFO Valuation, I have done the following SPRO setting:
1. Activate balance sheet valuation (Trans: OMWE) - as LIFO not relevant, FIFO active.
2. Defined LIFO/FIFO valuation levels (Trans: OMWL) - set as Plant (valuation area).
3. Configured FIFO Valuation areas for year 2008.
4. Define LIFO/FIFO method (Trans: OMWP) - FIFO01 as CUR u2013 current
5. No changes made to movements relevant to FIFO (Trans: OMW4);
While running the MRF1, the system is throwing the following message:
Balance sheet valuation not active (Customizing transaction OMWE)
Message no. MY043
Pls. help in rectifying the problem.
Pls. note that I have already activated the LIFO/FIFO-relevant Check box while creating the Material.
Do I need to execute MRF4 before executing MRF1?

Custom Categories in Public Site Manager

Hello,
I'm currently working on transitioning our school's site using the new Public Site Manager. I understand how tagging works, building collections, categories, and tag lists. However, I've been unable to create custom categories so I'm able to best organize our content. I've read the admin guide. I keep coming back to 'How to Categorize Content' and 'Specifying an Initial Category and Sub-category', however, can't seem to find how to create my own categories. Am I overlooking instructions for customizing categories so I can properly tag our content? Any assistance in getting to this point would be amazing.
Thanks!!
Nikki

Ok, so I finally figured this part out. Go to 'Collections' and properly tag all of your content. Then go to 'Pages' and under 'Provider Page', click on the title of your institution. Under Text Lists choose to 'Add List'. Click the gear icon to edit. Give your tags a title and select everything you want to live under that section. The tags will move from 'Tags' to 'Selected Tags'. Choose Done. Now I have what I was referring to as Custom Categories, these Tag Lists appear in addition to the default categories Apple makes available to you. If you have any tags that aren't associated with a Tag List they will appear at the bottom of the 'Pages' page and it will show an 'Inactive' status for each specific tag that isn't properly associated yet. It was kinda freaking me out that there was a message saying that the following pages are inactive or scheduled to be deleted. You just need to follow through with creating a Tag List for them. I think getting used to the new terminology was hanging me up a little bit, but slowly it's all starting to make sense.
I hope this helps some of you out there who are also getting started.

Releasing demand plan from DP into custom categories in SNP.

Hi Gurus,
I need to release the demand plan from DP into SNP custom categories Z1 thru Z4. The key figures that I mapped to these custom categories are created in a non-standard planning area (copied from 9ASNP02).
I am able to release the demand plan using category FA only. Can anyone help me in releasing demand plan into these custom categories in SNP.
Thanks,
Shiv.

Shiv
I did a F1 help on target category field in tcode /n/sapapo/mc90 and this is what i found
For the release of the demand plan to Supply Network Planning, you can specify a category that tells the system which category of orders to release to. An entry in this field is optional, but if you do enter a category it must be a category that represents sales orders or forecasts, such as FA or FB.
You can also release to categories you have created yourself. This allows you to distinguish, for example, between different forecast priorities.
The system proceeds as follows:
1. Has a category been entered in the release profile? If yes, this category is used.
2. If no, has a category been set in the definition of the requirements strategy in Customizing? (You define the product's strategy in the Proposed strategy field on the Demand tab of the product master record.) If yes, this category is used.
3. If no, category FA (forecasts) is used.
So as the F1 help says in the release transaction /n/sapapo/mc90 did you try giving the custom categories ? Also i have one more idea - after the forecast gets released to category FA , copy it to a key figure that is assigned custom cateogries Z1 to Z4.
But just want to understand something . Why do you want to release it to a custom cateory instead of FA ? How are you going to handle the consumption of forecasts by sales orders if you release it to custom category. I think releasing it to a custom category will make your process more complicated since you are altering the standard SAP functionality.
Thanks

Adding Columns under Activity Custom Percent Subject Area

I am trying to add columns under Activity > Custom Percent, where should this be added?

a) If you want the activity owner, open the Activity tree and within it you will have a secondary tree called 'Owned by User'.
b) You won't be able to reflect the account the way you are doing it because of the same bug I described earlier. The account is linked to the activity > the activity is linked to the CO record, but there is no physical link/relation between the account and the CO record. Since the Siebel DWH is built with an inner join, you will only see the account if it is related to BOTH records, which due to the bug it is not.
HOWEVER, since activities are tricky for reporting in general due to its many links, we have multiple WFs copying all the related data labels (account/contact/opty/campaign) into dummy/hidden fields on the activity layout. Then we use these fields for reporting. Not optimal, but the best we can get with these circumstances. You can either do them all or just the account, and this should provide you the solution for your issue.
Best of luck.

Access denied error in feature receiver code when deploying-activating custom timer job feature

hi,
am creating a sp timer job for a updating a list.when i write this code in a the event receiver featureactivated method, and when i activate this feature , am getting access denied error.
but, when i deploy this timer job [ without feature receiver] through powershell, it works.
i didnt run this feature receiver with runwithelevatedprivileges delegate - i think this wlll NOT solve the issue.
from one of the posts i seen that, current logedin user needs to be part of config database roles. i didnt understand this point. how can i add my current loge din user into the sp_config database roles? is it through SSMS 2012?
or
is there any way to achieve without feature event receiver?
otherwise i will be forced to write my business logic in a console appln and add this exe in a windows scheduler.!
help is appreciated!

hi Waqas,
i have ran that powershell script you have pointed to me.
function Set-RemoteAdministratorAccessDenied-False()
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint") > $null
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration") > $null
# get content web service
$contentService = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebService]::ContentService
# turn off remote administration security
$contentService.RemoteAdministratorAccessDenied = $false
$contentService.Update()
now i need to test the functionality from the event receiver after Activate feature button click.
BTW, i have written a console appln for my business logic and created an exe.
also, should i test it with a web application levels coped feature instead of site collection level feature? this thread talks abt the same:

Aperture Metadata Custom Categories

Does anyone have any ideas on how to deal with what appears to be either a bug or a small glitch with Metadata info?
Basically, I have a custom entry called, "Event Name". This entry was present in my Metadata custom fields from when I first opened the program (I did not add it. It seemed to be a default, which I found odd because how could a custom field be a default). Anyway, the weird thing was, it was listed there as, "EventName" without a space. When I tried to edit, it wouldn't change on first try, but eventually after multiple tries it seemed to be "forced" to change. I then had two "Event Name" tag lines in my Metadata Inspector. Even though there were two in the Inspector, there was only one in the Metadata editable area. I tried to delete it, and it deleted from the Metadata editable area, but the two entries remained in the Inspector. At that point, I wasn't about to add it again, because then I would have 3 entries that read, "Event Name" in my Inspector with no possible way to get rid of them. As it is, I have 2 entries in my inspector now that I cannot get rid of.
I hope this makes sense to someone and that there is an easy fix to this annoying, (while not life and death) situation.
Thanks,
Mac

Well for RAW I believe that the D-Lightning is in Nikon's own raw to jpeg converter, so there would be no point for Aperture to show it since it does not have the same D-lightning feature (it can do similar things with shadows/highlights/black points etc..)
i believe the same counts for noise reduction.

Why is there an error when activating custom wsp's (timer job) via SharePointUI?

We have created a Timer Job Project.
Before packaging wsp and deploying via PowerShell:-
1. If I set scope to Web and go to site features then I hit on Activate it gives error
(sayin to enable debug for error msg in web.config).
2. Similarly, if I set scope to Site, then if I go into site collection features and activate,
it give same error.
3. If scope is set to Web Application then the feature is activated by default (under
web app features), but cannot see the job under job definitions.
4. If scope is set to farm, then (under farm features) similar to above point no. 3
There is also error when deactivating features which are already activated when a package
is deployed. for example: web applicaiton feature.
Further, I cannot see the timer job under job defn unless it is scoped to SITE..
Why is this?
I donot get the issues when activating the features via PowerShell. Why is this?

Hi Nachiket Kamat,
When you are using web scoped or site scoped features to install the timer jobs, the account that does the scheduling must have write permissions to the configuration database of the server farm, usually, the identity of the application pool that is hosting
the SharePoint site does not have permissions on the configuration database, this is the account that is used when you activate the feature through the browser interface, this may cause the feature activated failed.
Another scenario that you met when you change the feature scope to web application, job definition cannot be seen, this may be caused by the feature receiver code, like if scope to web application, then get the web application from properties.Feature.Parent
as SPWebApplication, if you change the feature scope, then this also need to change to get the proper object.
