Activity missing in Workforce planning:project view

Dear experts,
I an caught up with the following problem:
1) I created a project with WBS and activities.
2) Created relationship between activities.
3) Created project team
When I try to perform workforce planning (project view) using transaction CMP2, some of the activities are missing in the list.
Please let me why this happens and also how to include the missing activities.
Thanks and regards

Hi
Please check following prequisites-
1.HR mini-master record (infotypes 0001and 0002).
2.Assigned work centers to the internally processed activities.
3.Entered Formulas in the work center to determine capacity requirements.
4.Scheduled the activities to generate capacity requirements.
5.Assigned only one labor capacity to a work center. (that is catagory 002)
6."Determine Cap. Check" indicator is ticked in the network header.

Missing images in "all projects view" and System Pref- Desktop!

I was about selecting the image pick for my projects in the Aperture's all projects view to find out that some of my picture are missing.
I had verify that the image I was looking for is actually in my project and isn't rejected. I even perform a library rebuilt, but still a few of my pictures aren't showing up in this view. Anyone is also having this issue, know why or how I could fix this?
beside, I also have a similar issue of some pictures not showing up in the System Preferences under Desktop. All my Aperture's project are there, but not all pictures aren't showing up. By the way, the missing pictures there aren't the same as the ones not showing up in the "all projects view".

The thumbnail you are scrubbing across with the mouse is only 156 pixels wide on the screen. If you have more than 156 images in the Project it'd be pretty complicated to show every single one. As far as I can see the All Projects view is there to give you a quick overview of the Project content, but isn't designed for 'detailed' browsing.
Find the image you want in it's Project, Right/Control-click and choose 'Make Key Photo'.

Only images that have had Previews generated will show up in other applications. Have you made sure that the Previews are up to date?

Hi,
Use SAP008. And under the scheduling tab in the Other formula field maintain SAP004 and under the costing tab besides the activity tab there is a field without a label. Maintain the formula SAP008 there.
Hope this helps.

Workforce planning in Projects

What are the different ways of assigning people to Work Centers?
My target is to get a worklist for CAT2 transaction from project internal activities.
1. I can assign people to Work Centers in workforce planning?
2. I can assign people to Work Centers with Organizational structure?
3. Is there any infotype in HR mini-master also to set such link?
What is the best practice to get that worklist updated? I have it just empty and not sure why.
Also is it possible to do a workforce planning at the WBS-element level? If so, how?
Thank you.

Best practice is based on requirement.
Please check the customization of your data entry profile in worklist area.
If you are using workfoce planning stricly for all the project then frist is best approach. but that you have to update regularly the assignments.
2. I can assign people to Work Centers with Organizational structure?
Here you assign person, most probabaly permenanatly for long time to workcenter, so you need not to chagne.
3. Is there any infotype in HR mini-master also to set such link?
As per my knowledge there is no such infotype to set up.

Workforce Planning for Partially Confirmed Activities

Hi All,
I have recently configured Workforce planning for one of the clients, and it has been working as per the requirement. Here, I have configured Workforce Planning profile and Scheduling parameters of Network. So, once a Project and a Network is created, User plans Personnel for this Network's activity using CMP2. Also, CATS profile is maintained in such a way that Worklist shows the Planned hours and accordingly a person can book Time against it.
Now, the problem arises after a Personnel assigned to an activity books the Timesheet. Once a Person books time against this particular Activity, it gets disappeared from CMP2 screen. Now, practical implications are that, suppose that person goes for a leave or leaves the organization and PM wants to assign another person for the same Activity (which is partially confirmed).
How can we address this issue - to perform workforce planning for Partially Confirmed activities?
Any pointers to User Exits, BADIs, BAPIs or SAP Notes are highly appreciated.

Hi Sanjeev,
Thanks for your feedback.
In CMP2, we are already checking the activity work hours. According to that only we are adding resource, then checking that resource's availability and then assigning work.
As an example, activity work duration is from 20.08.2014 to 30.09.2014. I assigned a resource A from 20.08.2014 to 30.09.2014 for 8 hours because he is available in that duration.
Now, the real problem comes when this resource is suddenly unavailable (due to any reason) and PM comes to know about this on 07.09.2014. Resource A has already booked Timesheet for the duration he has worked (20.08 to 06.09). So activity is PCNF.
So PM wants to reduce the Work assignment for Resource A from 30.09.2014 to 06.09.2014 and assign Resource B from 07.09.2014 to 30.09.2014, but he is unable to get this activity in CMP2 view because it is PCNF. Here PM can only see activities of same project which are in REL status.
So how can I enable this PCNF activity in CMP2 view.
If there is any IMG activity settings, then let me know.
If this is standard behavior and can be done through User Exit/BADI/BAPI then also let me know.

Workforce Palnning weekly view

Hi,
How can I do a weekly workforce planning instead of daily in cmp3? I want a view which shows only weeks not days. Do I have to create profile, if yes how do I do it?
Thanks!

In CMPC transaction under Period Split press F1 to read help for the Period unit field. There is a good example there:
You have entered a planning period for workforce planning starting 3 months before the current date and ending 12 months after.
For this planning period you specify the following period split:
Period no. Period unit Number of periods
1 Week 11
2 Day 20
3 Week 4
4 Month 3
This means you display the past period at the start of the planning period in weeks. For the immediate future you select a very detailled display in days. For the more distant future you need less detail and therefore choose progressively longer periods.
If the period split does not cover the whole planning period, only those periods are displayed that have been defined. The system, however, does read the data for the whole planning period, so that you can display the missing periods by changing the period split in the transaction.
Also in the CMP3 you can go to Goto -> Settings... and select the Period Unit

Workforce Planning: Relation between Employee and Entity dimension

Hi,
I was looking at the Workforce Planning module and the hierarchy/forms/rules that come built with it. One of the major points I noted was that the forms showed data for all employees (with a suppress missing data condition applied) so only those employees showed up against a particular entity for whom there was data.
I was just curious if accidentally a user enters any data for a particular employee against an incorrect location (maybe using the excel add-in), this will show the associated costs for that employee for the wrong entity.
Is there any way that I can create a relationship against these two dimensions which can restrict employees to a particular entity member?

Workforce Planning through Portal

Hi All,
Please help me out with the issue mentioned below,
Users are accessing SAP through a portal and most of the project activities done by the Managers is through portal only. Managers are using the transaction CMP2 for workforce planning but off late we are facing a typical issue here. I would also like to bring into light that this is happening only after application of some new HR module patches. Prior to this the system was working fine.
When we try to assign a resource after selecting an activity in CMP2 transaction system pops up an information message in the portal as "First select an activity". We are not able to figure out as to why this information message is popping up even after selecting the activity. Request you to help out in this as this is hampering the process since managers are not able to assign the resources to the respective activities.

No replies. So closing the thread.

Workforce planning in maintenance orders

Hello experts
I did already a lot of research and I made also some tests in the SAP system but I didn't find any answer to my question.
I have two work centers. Both should work for Projects and for maintenance orders or orders in general. The capacity planning and the workforce planning for projects (CMP1,3 e 9) is all clear. I have two work centers, assign them to a project and with the transactions mentioned before I can assign a person to the activity for the projects. But now I want to setup the maintenance order in a way that I'm able to make the workforce planning.
I create a new order with IW31. There I'm going to maintain a work center for the first operation. In the operation itself I maintain the work load, the date and the assignment for the person. I release and schedule the order.
Afterwards I'm able to see the requirement for this work center in the CM50.
Now my question
If I want to make the workforce planning report I can't see the assignment of the person I assigned before in the order. I can only see assignments of project activities. How can I handle this issue? Is there a change to be made on the work center or are setup some categories or profiles wrong?
I'm looking forward to get a helpful answer and I'm thanking all of you who are going to reply to this thread
Best regards

Hi,
You can use CM51 for assignments of persons in operations. I am not sure this report combines these with assignments for networks. Nevertheless, capacity evaluation can be configured in great detail in SAP. You may create your own profiles under customization for Capacity Requirements Planning and call your own evaluation profiles with CM07. Maybe you can create a report which better suits your requirement than standart reports in terms of selection and representation.

Hi,
Just check if you assigned the person responsible in Basic data tab of the work centre in u201CIR02u201D.Also check if you have maintained partner determination for the person
In addition please check the following link if it may be of some use to you.

Planned hours in workforce planning

Hi,
Planned hours in workfforce planning transaction CMP3 for network activity is disappearing after 4 weeks. Anybody has idea how this is happening? does any thing missing in profile?
Thanks,
Sudhir

Hi,
Refer the following F1 help given by SAP, for Period split.
Number of periods in a period unit
Specifies the number of period in the period split that have the corresponding period unit.
Note
The system can display up to 50 periods.
Example
You have entered a planning period for workforce planning starting 3 months before the current date and ending 12 months after.
For this planning period you specify the following period split:
Period no. Period unit Number of periods
1 Week 11
2 Day 20
3 Week 4
4 Month 3
This means you display the past period at the start of the planning period in weeks. For the immediate future you select a very detailled display in days. For the more distant future you need less detail and therefore choose progressively longer periods.
If the period split does not cover the whole planning period, only those periods are displayed that have been defined. The system, however, does read the data for the whole planning period, so that you can display the missing periods by changing the period split in the transaction.

I can create dimensions by Navigating > Administration > Dimensions > Add Dimensions
I can create Data Forms by Navigating > Administration > Managing Data Forms > Create
I have confusion about under given questions....
1- As I know there are pre-build data forms ..so how can we modify and use them for loading data? I can understand we can load data by DIM or Outline load Utility but how can we load data manually?
2- What is relationship between Dimension and Data Forms which I have mentioned up there? If I create Dimensions then we can work or Data Forms or is there any other philosophy?
3- How to increase rows, and columns in those data forms and what will be the Fields for HR?
I have been told to create two dimensions i.e. Employees and Positions. I can create those Dimensions as I mentioned above steps but what kind of parents and child i need to put and how can i load those dimensions in to Workforce Data Forms.

Issues in Workforce Planning

Dear Friends,
I am facing following isues in workforce planning.
1) I am not able to assign team maintained at WBSE level in assigned activities.Though the manpower maintained at Work Center is easily asigned.
2) The capacity requirement for activity as well as resource in not getting distributed, though I am using Distribution key to distribute work equally both at activity & work center level.
3) Last, once a resource has been assigned to a particular activity for a particular period, the system is still allowing allotment of same resorces to other activities during same period.
Please provide your valuable inputs.
Regards,
Seemant

Thanks for response.
We are maintaining WBSE team for the same WB SE to which network activity is assigned. The requirement for having a team at WBSE as well as Work Centre arises because, as per the business scenario the project may utilize resources other than that on Work Centre.
I have done all required settings & marked all relevant indicators.
Yes in I am using SAP020 Distribution Key.
For the third point that I mentioned (that you say to be standard system behaviour) I would explain again.
Once I have loaded a particular resource with work form a particular project, logically the system shall block that resource for that particular time frame (within which it is loaded). Are you saying this is standard system behaviour?
Thanks,
Seemant
