Actual Dates on confirmations

Hi
Is there a configuration or a standard way to update only the actual start date of the activity at the moment of partially confirm?
Currently I get an error message "RU274 please enter either actual start and actual finish or none of the fields"

Do you think there a posibility to workaround this with any of the confirmation users exits or no posibility to "trick" the source code?
CONFPS01 PS confirmation: Determine customer specific default values
CONFPS02 PS confirmation: Customer specific input checks 1
CONFPS03 PS confirmation: Customer specific check after op. selection
CONFPS04 PS confirmation: Customer specific input checks 2
CONFPS05 PS confirmation: Customer specific enhancements when saving
thanks

Actual dates from confirmed activities are not rolled up to wbs

Hi
In my Business Scenario, I need Project Definition, WBS, and Network
header to derive dates from activities assigned to them. I indicate the
Project definition start date and rest of the schedule need to happen
which is achieved through config i have done
I have created a project with two WBS and one network attached to
project definition. 4 activities of the network are attached to these
WBS
When I have done the scheduling, the basic dates are properly
calculated for Project Definition, network header and WBS
Now I have released the project and started confirming the activities.
After complete conformation of 1st activity, i have schedule the
project to see the dates. Now the dates of Project Definition, network
header and WBS are derived by the activities which are not confirmed.
Ideally the basic dates of Project Definition, network header and WBS
are to be derived from activities confirmed and yet to be confirmed the
way the basic dates are derived before confirmation.
As a result of this the basic dates are showing wrong dates which are
derived from unconfirmed activities
Warm regards,
Ramakrishna

Hi,
This is standard system behaviour.
Basic dates at WBS level do not change based on activity confirmation. However, actual dates at WBS level get updated from network activities based on confirmation.
"Tentative actual start date for WBS element" and "Tentative actual finish date" get updated from activity confirmation in the case of WBS with activities assigned to it.
This tentative dates can later be transferred as actual dates.
Basic dates do not get automatically updated based on confirmation of activities

Actual data different during confirmation

Hi all
I confirmed first operation with yield of 800pc out of production order of 1000 pc and put 200pc as scrap. Now during confirmation of second operation the actual data should be 800 for yield but the system showing 1000pc. What are the settings that system will show as required.

roshan

Hi,
Pl. check ur entries in "Parameters for order confirmation - opk4". In the control data tab, check ur entry in " generated confirmations without qty. adjustments".
If don't set that indicator, then the scrap qty. will be taken into account.

Auto release of Invoicing plan item when milestone actual date is entered

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can help me on this. I have configured the system to automatically release an invoicing plan in a PO once the milestone attached to that invoicing plan is confirmed in the project by entering the actual date. For some reason though, when trying to enter the invoice for this item in MIRO, the amount from the invoicing plan is not copied. The amount only gets copied if you enter the PO in change mode after confirmation of milestone, display the invoice plan for each item then save before exitting. It is only after this that the block on the item is removed. Is this supposed to be so? I would have thought immediately after confirmation of milestone by indication of actual date, the block on the invoicing plan will be immediately be removed so the invoice can immediately copy the amounts from the PO? Any ideas how to achieve this? (GR is not a part of the process).

Hi,
Go through this link. Might be helpful.

Original dates in comparison of actual dates

Hi Experts
I have a project with certain activities and partily executed (few activities are confirmed and partially confirmed).
For the finally confirmed activities, the planned earliest and latest dates if activity are matched with actual dates.
To have an analysis of planned and actual dates, how to retain the original dates?
Over a period of time, i have incerted new activities. To enable bringing these activities in schedule, i need to re-schedule the project.
But, the origjnal schedule also will get rescheduled. I am looking for retaining the original schedule despite repeated reschedules for the purpose of future analysis.
Generally, the project progress in gantt chart (general business requirement) is monitored with out deviating the original schedule.
Require comments by experts.
warm regards

Hi Mahendra
My scheduling scenario is bottom up, because the individual activities and procurement lead times will decide the actual planning for each WBS.
So, as you suggested, once after complete structuring and initial scheduling, i will transfer the basic dates to forecast dates.
Then onwards i will keep reschedule after confirmation / partial confimation / addition of new activities. Is this method keeps the forecast dates unchanged forever and gives information on iniital schedule?
During intermittent rescheduling, will the forecast dates get affected as like basic dates (due to my scenario bottom-up)?

Actual dates should not impact the Network scheduled dates

Hi
I have planned schdeuled dates (Early/latest).
When i am confirming the activity the actual dates get updated
When i schedule the network the scheduled planned dates are recalulated
This should not happen for this client i am working for
The requirement is that the Planned Scheduled should remain fixed and
should only change if duration, relationship etc changes.
I have tried different option to solve this but still no clue
Adjust basic date 1, 2, 3 option
Shift Order
No date Update - this seems to work but not visible in CN22/CN25/CJ20n
Kindly highlight if any of you have come with similar requirement & provided solution to it
Either thru standard functionality, configuration or any development
Cheers

Hi Manoj,
I had the same requirement and able to achieve it by std. settings. Keep in mind that the planned dates wil get changed when you do the final confirmation. You should have the control on the planned dates until the activity get Fianlly confirmed.

Actual Date in WBS element

Hi,
Actually in my WBS elemrnt the actual Date fields are disabled in change mode, i need to enter the actual dates, How to do...
Thanks in Advance....

Entering actual start and finish dates for a WBS element, depends on below
1. WBS element has been further described using activities
2. Whether you have already entered actual dates for subordinate WBS elements.
WBS Elements W Activities
1. You can always enter actual start.
2. You can only enter actual finish, if all subordinate WBS element already have an actual finish.
WBS Elements W/o Activities
1. You can only maintain the actual start, if all activities that are assigned to WBS element have status "PREL" or "REL".
2. You can only enter actual finish if all subordinate WBS elements already have an actual finish and all activities for this WBS element have system status "final confirmation".

Actual dates in activities

Hi Guys,
I have an activity in a network. While confirming an activity i have to enter both actual start date and end date. Is it possible to enter the actual start date alone at an instance and then enter actual finish date after a while(days) and confirm the activity when i enter actual finish date.
Ex. enter actual start date as today 16/10/2007 and enter actual finish date on 31/10/2007 and confirm an activity then.
Regards,
Paval.

Hai pavalavel,
In that case you can
1) Enter the starting date also on 31/10/07 and confirm it 100% totally on 31/10/07.i,e; you can do back confirmation
or
2)Enter partial confirmation say 5% or 10% with 16/10/07 as actual start date and confirm it totally 100% on 31/10/07.so that your dates will be as per your requirement.also you dont have to remember the actual start date. during the course of the activity.

Actual Data in Journal

Hi All,
I can enter Credit or debit values for any dimension member in Journal and can see the entered values in the Reports.
But what i need is, is there any way to see the actual values present in the system for the selected dimension member, so that the tune up can be done straight away.
That is, if for
Jan.2009,Acct1,Entity1,Actual1 has a value 1000 before making any entry in Journals.
and i need this value to be displayed in the journal so that the adjustment can be done checking this staright away.
Plesae help me out in this.
Thanks in Advance,

Re:Actual Timing in Confirmation

Dear Gurus,
My client want the Actual Timing should be entered against the planned time while confirming each operation in production order in co11N/Co11
Is there any Customizing setting for this ?
Kindly guide
Ishwar

Hi,
In OPK4 / OPK0 you can specify that system should propose the qty, times etc when confirmations are being posted via CO11N. With this setting, system will copy the planned value into the confirmation screen, now the user needs to decide if these values need to be changed or should remain same depending on the time spent on the activity or yield.
I guess as a double check to ensure that the users do not post any confirmations without entering any values, you can activate one of the below exits to do a check & prevent posting confirmations if its blank. (discuss with your abaper which one suits your need the best).

Scheduling after entering Actual dates

Dear Members,
I have a scenario where I want to reschedule the project after entering actual dates for the activity.
Lets say,
An activity was planned for Duration : 8 Days and work : 64 Hrs (Capacity is 8 hrs/day)
20.05.2009 to 28.05.2009
Now I am confirming the activity for the first time after say 4 days work :
20.05.2009 to 24.05.2009
but the work done is only 16 hrs.
Now the remaining work is 48 hrs in only 4 days.
Requirement is that... scheduling should shift the dates of the activity according to capacity and remaining work.
48 hrs can be completed in 6 days... so the finish date of activity should be increased by 2 days... from 28.05.2009 to 30.05.2009.
I hope I have put my requirement in a meaningful way... please help me on this...
(I know that instead of increasing the dates and delaying the project, it is recommended to overload the capacity and finish the activity withing the planned duration.. but I cant increase the capacity...)

Dear Amol,
I have come across the same business requirement in one of the project implementation.
So I had given a logic to my ABAPer to calculate the forecast duration and automatically bring the value in the internal activity screen.
The user exit used was CONFPS04, there is an include available where you can out the code for this enhancement.
Hence, whenever you will do the confirmation, as per the calculation you have given in your example, system will calculate & update the forecast duration field. Now, everytime you will do the scheduling, on the basis of the value in the forecast duration, system will schedule the project.

Not getting 'actual data' in the planning query

Hi all,
I am debug other's query. This cube stores 'actual' and 'plan' data and I loaded 'actual' and can see it in the cube. But I cannot see 'actual data' when I run the planning query.
I checked all restrictions in the KFs and CHARs and fliters in the query. There are only 'value type 10', 'fiscal year variant Z1', and 'currency CAD' restricted and actual data does contain those values in all line items.
Can someone point it out what it could be the issue? Thank you.
R.

Hi,
if you enter some data (plan data) you cannot see it again. Is that correct?
are you using the same query to enter and to see plan data?
Because if you are entering data in an aggregate level and you are executing your query over the infocube you will not see the data from the yellow request. If you execute query over the aggregate you should be able to see all data in the cube (yellow and green requests).
Also check if your query is defined as per note 1136163.
I hope this helps.

How to differentiate b/w Plan and actual data

Hi,
How to differentiate b/w plan nad actual data.
Is that value type or Version InfoObject??
What should be the value for that and how it gets populated ??
Regards,

Hello Tapan,
The plan and actual data is differentiated on the basis of value of infoobject 0VTYPE. Value 10 is for actual. Different plan versions can be differentiated by different values of infoobject 0VERSION.
These values are populated when actual data is loaded or plan data is entered.
Hope it helps.

How to get the actual data in ALV report

I am doing some upgradation work in that i am using Submit & And return and also i am using some function modules like LIST FROM MEMORY , LIST TO TXT wnd WRITE LIST , it gives output in normal list format , But i need to print in ALV report .
With the use of set table for 1st display i got the ALV report but not with actual data, (some junk value is showing) , So can any 1 suggest me how to get the actual data in ALV report, With the use of Any Function Module or with Coding,
with regards,

Hi Saravana
I am sure you must be getting the values in tables of table parameters from every FM.
consolidate the values from tables of all FMs in one table and built ALV for that table only.
I hope this way you can show the actual data in ALV.
thanks

Date label in mail app on iPad not same as actual date in email header

Hello everyone
I've been experiencing some problems with my iPad's email, the date label (displayed in blue) when viewed in the list of emailed received, doesn't correspond to the actual email's date as displayed in the email's header. For example, when viewing the list of emails, the blue label shows the date as 'Yesterday' when the actual date the email was received at was 4 days ago! This also happens in a different way, the label shows 'Sunday' when the day it was received on was in fact Wednesday..this is becoming quite annoying as it keeps pushing the old email along with the emails that were actually recently received.
I'd appreciate any suggestions for solving this issue..
thanks!

yes I have, also checked the time zone, just to be sure ;-)
it just happened suddenly and I'm not quite sure what triggered it..
anyway, thanks for your response.. I'd love to hear any other suggestions you might have..
