Actual/Plan (urgent)

Hi All,
I am into a scenario where in i should plan based upon the actuals.I have couple of doubts in the scenario am working upon.
I have a cube for actual and a cube for plan.If i have to use both these cubes both should be made transactional.(am i right?)
can iload the actual data in to a cube and then use the same in bps(obviously transactional) and make comparisons using version change?is this advisable?
i am realy breaking my head inorder to work with actual/plan.Please lite me with the possible solutons.Thank you

Hello Ragav,
When working with Plan and Actual data you can use either of the two scenarios described above. Either have 2 InfoCubes and use a MultiCube/Multiarea or copy the actual data into the plan InfoCube. Both scenarios have advantages and disadvantages/constraints:
Read data using a Multi-Area:
Advantages:
- No data redundancy, less physical memory is needed.
Disadvantages:
- Data structure in planning and reporting must be similar.
- Multi-Areas are a little slower than basic areas.
Physical Copy:
Advantages:
- If the actual data is on another granularity than the plan data or in another data model you can fit the data to the structure of the plan data using transfer/update rules or Fox formulas when copying the data.
- Planning and reporting can be done without influencing each other.
Disadvantages:
- Data redundancy.
If you copy/move the actual data into the plan InfoCube you should use a process chain that first switches the InfoCube to "load enabled", then uploads the data and switches the InfoCube back to "planning enabled". You have to make sure that no user is working on the plan data when doing this. Thus if you cannot make sure that you have a timeframe (at night) where no user is/can do planning then you can either move the data be using a BPS copy function in a multiarea or go for the multiarea concept.

Currency in 'Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance' report for specific user

Hi there CO people, I'd like to ask about currency settings in CO S_ALR_87013611 report (Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance)
The question is ... where can I define the currency in which report output should be displayed?
I've got such situation, that amounts for USER_X are displayed in CURR_X currency, whilst for USER_Y amounts in report are displayed in CURR_Y currency.
Could You tell me some tip? Or give some literature-track to follw? I'd be thankful for help. Greetings. P.

USER_X -> TCode: RPC0 -> Tab: Report currency -> Tick 'Objeck currency' (Before was: 'Controlling area currency')
now USER_X has got the same currency as USER_Y
That solved my problem
Greetings

Issue with report (S_ALR_87013611) that is actual/plan line items for Cost

Hi Gurus,
I am having issue with the report (S_ALR_87013611) that is actual/plan line items for Cost Center.
When i execute the report for a cost element 510200 the amount is 23,380.13, but when i drill down on it by double click on that amount the value in obj curr is 15468.91. Hence there is the differnce. When i futher drill down by double click on the amont of 15468.91 and i go to display group currency and take the total it is 23380.13 and display in local / doc currency the amount is 15468.91. I guess due to this there is difference. The cost center & the cost elements are the same i have checket it.
My concerns is that the group curr is USD and obj curr / local curr is USD. So is group curr and doc curr is USD then when i click on dislay curr and select group curr why the amounts are changing.
Kindly adivce

Try to look if there is any filtering criteria applied in the report to which you drill-down.
The difference can be also caused by the "value type" - some reports show actual and statistical costs together in one column while the others strictly show (are defined to show) only e.g. actual costs (type 04) and not the statistical costs (type 11)

Report Painter: Cash Flow Actual/Plan Report on Profit Center

I must create a Cash Flow report Actual/Plan/Variance Figures per Profit Center by using a report painter.
It will be created in monthly basis format, and year-to-date format (two different formats).
The format is in GL accounts instead of standard Cash In and Cash Out format.
I need to extract the Plan figures. However, we don't have planning on PCA. We are only doing plan on cost center, either revenue or cost (revenue is created as cost element category costs/reducing tax).
Should I extract it from the Cost Center Plan & add up all plan amounts of the cost centers that attached to the specific profit center? How can I do that?
What do you suggest as the best solution? Please explain briefly and using what t-code, tables and fields to extract from.
Thanks,

Hi John,

S_ALR_87013611: Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance

Hello everyone,
I am needing some help in understanding the Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance report S_ALR_87013611. I understand the basic concept, but I am having trouble figuring out how it comes up with its numbers in the "Total Value in Report Currency" field.
When I go into the report, a list of cost center groups pop-up on the left-hand side of the screen. So, I select cost center group 200, then the right-hand side of the screen pulls up a list of the cost elements and their actual VS planned numbers. When I scroll down to the bottom of the screen I see a section for "Activity Types", so I double click on activity type A200 "ST Personnel Run Hours" and then I select "Cost Centers: Actual Line items" report. This is where I am seeing the "Total Value in Report Currency" field that I can not figure out how it is calculating. The column header for this actually reads "Val.in rep. cur.", I have went into F1 for the help information and it, unfortunately, does not help me what so ever.
Also, where does it come up with the "Total Quantity" on the same report?
I would appreciate any insight into the report.
Thanks in advance for all of you help,
Rhonda

Hello Madhu,
I am not seeing a different currency, I just do not understand how it comes up with the result in that column? Where does it pull the amount from exactly?
The hr quantity shows .250 hrs and the value in rep.cur. shows 6.06. Where does the 6.06 come from?
Any help in understanding this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Rhonda

Data from two cubes to display in same grid - Actual/planned comparison

Hi All,
I want to show planned and actual data in the same grid. For example,
qty-2011001 qty-2011002 qty-2011012
actual plan actual plan actual plan
Here quantity is shown for fiscal year periods. For each fiscal year period actual and planned quantity should be shown in adjacent columns in bex analyzer. But in my model actual and planned data are in two different cubes. So how can I show in the same grid.
I thought of creating a multiprovider or infoset and by combining them we can pull data from both of them to show in the same grid. But it resulted in errors.
I was wondering if there are any interesting workaround for this.
Thanks and Regards,
Jerry

Hi,
this is a standard requirement and very easy to model. To key figures (actual and plan) are not need.
1. Create a cube for actuals A and one for plan data P. Both contain the same key figure.
2. Create a multiprovider with both cubes and use the default mapping for key figures and characteristics
3. Create an aggregation level on top of the multiprovider with the characteristics and key figures you need
4. Create a query with two restricted key figures, e.g.
Quan actual: restrict by 0INFOPROV = A
Quan plan: restrict by 0INFOPROV = P, make this element input-ready.
Drill-down 0FISCPER on columns.
Thats all.

Which data sources I need to use for Actual&Plan comparision of GL Account?

Could you please let me know which datasources I need to use for Actual & Plan comparision of GL Account data?
Current SAP BI version is BI 7.0.
As per my knowledge, I am thinking of using the datasources 0CO_OM_CCA_1 for Plan data & 0FI_GL_10 for Actuals.
Is this right?
I have one more question here:
While extracting the data from ds 0CO_OM_CCA_1, I am getting only the Profit & Loss Account data where as the Balance Sheet Account data is not coming.
And also there is some confusion in VTYPE because the standard ds 0CO_OM_CCA_1 is giving the data with Value type 10 is & Version 000.
As we all know the VTYPE '10' stands for Actuals then how can we say that this ds 0CO_OM_CCA_1 gives Plan data?
Please clarify.

Hi,
Basically 0CO_OM_CCA_1 data source is used to extract actual, plan, and commitments.
This data is differentiated with value type, you can see sap note 523742 for more details on value type.
For balance sheet accounting data check the below link,

Hi,
You can do it with help Transaction cube. Create a basic cube and transaction cube.Go to the transaaction cube Rght click on the cube select the Switch on the traction cube you get 2 radio buttons where u can load and planning on the cube .
When u select on planing u can't load the data but wen u select the Load Radio button u load the data and compare with basic cube.To be presice it is the concept of BPS(Business Planning Simulation) part of SEM.

OBIEE - (Actual - Plan) Calculation

HI,
I have a simple question on OBIEE.
I am using Obiee with Essbase and have a simple calculation to calculate (Actual - Plan) Data.
FILTER("SalesFlat"."Sales" USING "Scenario"."Gen2,Scenario" = 'Actual') - FILTER("SalesFlat"."Sales" USING "Scenario"."Gen2,Scenario" = 'Plan')
This works fine if i have Actual and Plan Data. However, if one of the value (Actual or Plan) is missing, obiee gives null.
It works if i use CASE statement or direct essbase formula.
Any suggestion is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Sam.

Something like
(ifnull(A,0)/ifnull(B,0) - ifnull(C,0)/ifnull(D,0)) * ifnull(B,0)
btw: Generally fact metrics should be 0 try to handle it in db or using etl

Validate the posting date for profit centre documents actual/plan

Hi,
I have an requiremnt where we want system to validate the posting date for profit centre documents actual/plan, Functionality should be same as system check posting period for FI documents maintained in OB52 and controlling cost centre documents posting period maintained in OKP1.
For creating Profit centre document activity types are available in Tcode 0KEO.
I have come across Exits EXIT_SAPLPC08_001 and EXIT_SAPLPC08_002. But i am notsure whether we can use these and implement these.
PLease suggest what can be done to achieve this.
Regards,

Hi,
U can use subsititution and specify that the profit center could be your head office or the store as per your req...
I think thats the only option we have..

Actual/plan cost report

guru,
in production order,cost------>analysis ,i am not getting actual/plan layout,
please help

Hi Guru,
You can get it this combination of Cost Element Plan-Actual, Plan Qty , Actual Qty in the "Cost Trend" layout itself.
Once you choose that layout, then you go to "change layout" again and select "Plant Qty" and "Actual Qty" fields. You will be able to see the above comparison.
If you want it in a report format, go to KKBC_ORD transaction, give the Order number, chagne the Layout once you get the report, select "Plan Qty", "Actual Qty" fields...
Pls revert back if you face any problem...

Actual & planned costs calculated while creating Plant Maintenance Order

Hi All,
I would like to know how the actual & planned costs calculated while creating Plant Maintenance Order (PM Order)
Thanks,
Ajay

You need to create an activity rate for 2014 for cost centre 51260201 and activity type NAHG20.
This can be done via transaction KP26, but is usually performed by your Finance team.
