APO -DP and BW linking

Hi
1) Is it mandatory to do some setting in BW for data upload by APO consultant.
2) If a orgnaisation is using  manual forcasting by taking inputs frm sale team , sales data  than how to convenced client that he will get benifited from APO DP.
Thanks
sudhir

Hi Sudhir,
Just a small correction from your observation. 
Both BW & APO are components of SCM.  To
operate APO in terms of demand planning, BW
objects needs to be created which is the primary
role of BI/BW consultant.
Hope it is clear now.
Please confirm
Regards,
R. Senthil Mareeswaran.

  • Data movement from R/3 DB to APO DB and to Live cache

    Dear APO Experts,
    I have few questions on live cache and how it works, I understand that Live cache is memory resident database. below are my questions.
    1) What sought of data move from R/3 DB to APO DB and then to Live cache DB
    2) When data moves from APO DB to Live cache, till how much duration that data stays in live cache
    3) And how does data gets pulled in to live cache from APO DB
    4) Why do we require live cache logs while data never gets commited to hard disk
    5) Do we ever add a datafile to Live cache DB
    any info that you provide on this will be really helpfull to me
    Thanks,
    Chetan

    Hello Chetan,
    As you know, itu2019s MAXDB/liveCache forum.
    What is the version of your system?
    The is documentation available at:
       SAP liveCache technology
    < Please review document u201CWhat is SAP liveCache technology?u201D >
    Sap documents at service.sap.com/scm -> Technology:
    u201CliveCache overviewu201D and u201CIntegration overviewu201D
    For SAP liveCache documentation also see the SAP note 767598.
    Go to SAP link Best Practices for Solution Management: mySAP SCM at   SAP liveCache technology ...
    And Review the document u201CManage APO Core Interface in SAP APO (3.x) / mySAP SCM (4.x/ 5.0)u201D
    1. As you saw in the reference documents the data transferred from the connected R/3 system to APO.
    And the transactional data could be uploaded to the liveCache, if you downloaded them
    to the APO database cluster tables first. This procedure steps are running during the
    system upgrade < for example, from SCM 5.0 to SCM 7.0 ) u2013 report /SAPAPO/OM_LC_UPGRADE_70 steps. Or you want to migrate the          
    liveCache to another operating system or convert your system to Unicode,  
    and therefore you want to back up the liveCache data first so that you    
    can reload it into the liveCache afterwards - SAP Note No. 632357.                              
    2. Could you collaborate more on this sentence. Could you give examples?
    3.  u201CAnd how does data gets pulled in to live cache from APO DBu201D
        The data are not pulled from the APO DB to liveCache.
         When you changed the APO data on the system the LCA procedures have been called from ABAP. The objects stored in the class containers in liveCache can be accessed and manipulated only via LCA routines. The registration of the LCA routines is done automatically when the liveCache is started by the LC10. The LCA procedures in the LiveCache are written in C++                          
    and shipped to the customers as binary LCA libraries(LCA build) together with the LiveCache.
    < See more details in SAP Note No. 824489 or 1278897 as of SCM 7.0 >
    4. See the SAP notes:
                   869267     FAQ: SAP MaxDB LOG area
                 1377148     FAQ: SAP MaxDB backup/recovery
    5. You could run the quicksizer & estimate how much data you are planning to have in liveCache.
         Also the amount of data could be increased by the creation of the new data in APO by users
         Or another reason u2026
         In general you will add the datavolume to solve or prevent the DB_FULL issue,
         See u201C17. What do I do if the data area is full? u201C in SAP note 846890.

  • APO DP and SNP planning

    Hi friends,
    please send me any links related to APO DP and SNP planning on sales.

    There r two time bucket profiles exist in DP & SNP, namely;
    a. Storage Bucket Profile - used to store the planning data.
    b. Planning Bucket Profile - used to plan and display the planning data. It can have both time span,
    So rather than having two planning areas it better u create two Planning book for Promotion & BOM respectively.
    You specify Storage Bucket profiles during setup of your Planning Area.
    Planning Bucket profiles on the other hand are used to model how you would want to "see" the data for your Planning Areas. These profiles are specified during Planning Book cre

  • SAP APO roles and authorizations

    Hi,
           There is a brand new APO-DP, SNP system  being configured at my client for SCM 5.0. I need information on the kinds of roles we need and the security objects involved.
    I have searched this forum and so far, the information I could get is the following:
    Generally there would be a Developer, Super User, end user, APO-ADMIN and a test user.
    The authorization in SCM is by either planning book or by selection profiles and not both.
    I found some information on <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/21/f6253b90e48743e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm">Authorization in Supply Network and Demand Planning</a>

  • Why text and button links on a PDF do not work in the iPad

    I have Acrobat Pro 9.2.3 and InDesign CS5.
    I've tried creating both button and text links directly from InDesign (Window > Interactive > Hyperlinks). I then export the multi-page PDF with "Acrobat 6 and Above" selected as well as the "Hyperlinks" and "Interactive Elements" checked. When I open the PDF in my iPad, none of the text or button links work.
    Then . . .
    I tried opening the same multi-page PDF in Acrobat Pro, and manually created the link boxes (Tools > Advanced Editing > Link Tool). The iPad still can't interprete these two interactive elements.
    Any clues what I'm doing wrong?

    Try exporting as ePub - now test inside Digital Editions and if OK - drag the file into iTunes and synch to iPhone/iPad.
    It's probably a Preview issue as mentioned but exporting to ePub is good fun!

  • How to display URL images and URL link (html) from Smartforms?

    Hi Gurus,
    I'm having difficulty on how to display targeted URL images and URL link from the smartforms, after i sending it out as html mail.

    1- put your images in a directory under the web app directory. Example: app/images/
    2- in your jsp, use: String file = application.getRealPath("/images/"); to get the images directory. See http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#getRealPath(java.lang.String)
    3- it's not the right forum to post this kind of question. Post them in the JSP/Servlet JSTL forum instead

  • In FF 34.0.5 I use to be able to click on a link within an e-mail and the link would open in a new tab; it now opens in the same tab; how can i change it back?

    I'm using FF 34.0.5 (I like it). I use to be able to right click on a link, within an e-mail, and the link would open in a new tab. Now when I click on the link it opens in the same tab replacing my e-mail.
    Example - a friend sends me an e-mail containing a link to a web site he thinks I'd like. I click on the link and go to the web site and then go back to the e-mail tab and reply to him. Now, when clicking that link, my e-mail disappears and is replaced by the new site.
    How can I fix this? When this happened once before I was told to change the 'value' for a specific 'preference name' through the about:config page.
    Can anyone help jog my memory?
    Thanks!

    Is this about clicking a link in an external program?
    You can check this pref on the about:config page for external links.
    * browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external (-1)
    If this pref has the default value -1 then browser.link.open_newwindow is used.

However, if I right click on a link and select "Open Link In New Tab", the Tab shows URL in address bar. So it's working when it's a New Tab but not a New Window.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.

    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.

    If the tone really is a single (or at least narrow band) frequency like the picture shows, I'd try the Notch Filter on the Audition/Effects/Filter and EQ menu.  It might take some playing around to get the exact frequency and tweak the amount of cut you apply vs. the effect it will have on surrounding frequencies--but if you can get the right balance, you can then easily apply this to the whole of every file.
    Sorry, can't help on the Premiere Pro question since I only use Audition.

  • When I click on an active link from another application, it opens the firefox application, but won't open open the page - it just opens Firefox or takes me to Firefox. No new tab or window is opened and the link is not displayed.

    Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.

  • Can't find the storage and backup link to start an icloud backup

    Why is it that when you create an icloud account the Storage and Backup link isn't always there.  I need to create an icloud account and then create an icloud backup right away so that I can setup multiple ipads using the icloud backup.  How do I force an icloud backup?
    Thanks

    You can check your Junk/Spam folders, sometimes the e-mail gets sent there. Also, double check that the primary e-mail address in your Apple ID account is hers. If none of this works, I suggest to wait it out, sometimes it can take up to 24 hours!

  • Facebook and other links

    How do I include Facebook and website links on my feedback form?

    Hi;
    You can insert a link into your form using the "link" feature, there is a link button on the toolbar to insert a link:
    If however you are asking about the "Social", "Like" buttons like many web sites have - that is not something FormsCentral includes/supports, but you can use the "Link" feature above for adding links of your own.
    Thanks,
    Josh
