Approach for Accrued charges

Hi,
We have a requirement to accrue charges during creation of a customer invoice and then subsequently issue a debit memo to the Customer for these accrued charges.
One approach is to use rebates with a settlement document as a debit memo request instead of a credit memo request.
We wanted to explore any other way that we could approach this. We could use an accrual condition, but we need to be able to get accrued values for every customer seperately in order to get the charge amounts.
Would appreciate inputs from fellow forum members.

The only thing that comes to mind is a completely custom solution with a custom (Z...) table to store the data, which could then be used to create the sales documents. This would also involve some ABAP work in the user exits.
Although you might want to try a custom pricing condition (which would have no meaning ther than to store the amounts to be accrued) + a custom order type + copy routines, which would copy only those pricing conditions.
Both solutions are not perfect and have some pros and cons. With Z table you'll have a better reporting options, in case business would want to know how much amount per customer is accumulated per month, day, etc. It is very difficult to get any reports by the pricing conditions because the tables are clustered.

Views regarding single credit card approach for expenses

Hi All,
We are planning for a single credit card approach for the employee travel expenses and procurement of goods. Thus an employee would be given only a single card from company, for all the expenses. The credit card would be directly paid by the business and it wouldnu2019t be paid by employee.
You are requested to please suggest what are the pros and cons of having a single card against having two separate cards. Would also like to know what implementing issues do you foresee and in future how well the single card would be accepted by users?
Your views are appreciated.
Rakesh

From application point of view, In relation to single credit card, please note that if you plan to use the program PRAA for creation of vendor in FI from HR master data and payments then the standard solution only supports one credit card per employee anyway from IT009.
Other than that, if corporate credit card is stored this is taken as default from the HR infotypes or else the credit card data is taken and charged from infotype 0105 subtype 11
check the documentation here on credit card clearing.

You would have to specify that all expenses are paid by company when you do expense and wage type configuration and remember that these credit card receipts cannot then be deleted in case of any problem.

Hi Xellana, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I'm looking for information and pricing on possibly upgrading the processor from the PowerPC to Intel.
While anything is possible if you had enough money... NOPE, you can't change the CPUs to Intel, nor can you get any faster PPC upgrades for it. It'd be far cheaper to buy a new IntelMac than to replace everything inside the G5, and I mean just about everything, then figure out how to machine the case & such to mount Intel Logic Board, Graphic Card & such.
Sorry.

TS1646 We have several apple devices in our family who use my debit card for itune charges. I need to find out which device (itune account) these charges are coming from. Can you help?

We have several apple devices in our family who use my debit card for itune charges. I need to find out which device (itune account) these charges are coming from. Can you help?

You can't tell which device a purhcase was made on, but if your family members each have their own iTunes account to which your card is linked then you can check the purchase history on each of those accounts via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes - that should have 'purchase history' section with a 'see all' link to the right of it

Tax determination for delivery charge

Hi,
We are using SAP IS Retail wherein actual sales is being sent out to SAP from web-site using Idoc type WPUBON.
WPUBON IDOC is processed in SAP and billing document and accounting documents are created. This IDOC will carry the information of the articles that were sold and the delivery charges for dispatching the articles to customer.
In normal scenario, VAT is applicable for article as well as the delivery charge and is taken care by the standard pricing procedure by accessing MWST condition. Tax code is derived from article master. VAT is calculated based on article price and delivery charge and posted into corresponding tax GL account (VAT amount for delivery charge is calculated based on tax class of article).
We have a scenario where some articles are sold with tax exemption at website to disabled customers. Even though the article price is exempted for tax, delivery charge is taxable as per government rules.
When this sales data comes into SAP the corresponding IDOC u2013 WPUBON has a tax code (E u2013 Exempted) against this article. This overrides the tax code maintained in article master while posting the billing document (Thought article is fully taxable as per master records, no tax is calculated when billing document is posted). Till this point we have no problem. As mentioned above, we want the tax to be calculated for delivery charge and posted to the tax GL account, which is not happening as the tax code applied for the article is also applied for delivery charge by default.
Is there any way in configuration to change the tax determination only for delivery charge?
Any pointer in this would be of great help.

Hi
You can create and use a new tax code which is applicable only for Delivery charge cases.
Use a new pricing condition type for this Tax .and condition records with access sequence and tax code can be amintianed only for this condition type.
You will have to modify pricing procedure for the same.
Depending on condition records and document inputs the tax values for delivery will get triggered.
You can also put an order reason in Accounting determination access sequence through which on This special sales ,
account determiantion can be changed.
hope this helps

Audiobooks are not part of icloud and cannot be redownloaded.
You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception.

What's the best approach for handeling about 1300 connections in Oracle.

What's the best approach for handling about 1300 connections in Oracle 9i/10g through a Java application?
1.Using separate schema s for various type users(We can store only relevant data with a particular schema. Then No. of records per table can be reduced by replicating tables but we have to maintain all data with a another schema Then we need update two schema s for a given session.Because we maintain separate scheama for a one user and another schema for all data and then there may be Updating problems)
OR
2. Using single schema for all users.
Note: All users may access the same tables and there may be lot of records than previous case.
What is the Best case.
Please give Your valuable ideas

I just got an ipad mini for christmas. charged it fully. was using it fine, then went to turn it back on and nothing is happening. i plugged it in and it doesn't even make a sound like it's charging. the screen is completely black. why would this happen?

i got an ipad mini for christmas, charged fully. was using it..and it was fine.. went to turn it back on to use again and it's a blank screen. went to plug in and nothing seems to show it's charging or anything. why can this happen??

Try resetting it. Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds. Hopefully you will see the Apple logo.
If it's a brand new iPad Mini (with retina display), it is under warranty. You can always take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service Center for service.

Best approach for IDOC - JDBC scenario

Hi,
In my scenarion I am creating sales order(ORDERS04) in R/3 system and which need to be replicated in a SQL Server system. I am sending the order to XI as an IDoc and want to use JDBC for sending data to SQL Server. I need to insert data in two tables(header & details). Is it possible without BPM? Or what is the best approach for this?
Thanks,
Sri.

Yes, this is possible without the BPM.
Just create the Corresponding Datatype for the insertion.
if the records to be inserted are different, then there wil be 2 different datatypes ( one for header and one for detail).
Do a mutlimapping, where your Source is mapped into the header and details datatype and then send using the JDBC sender adapter.
For the strucutre of your Datatype for insertion , just check this link,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7e/5df96381ec72468a00815dd80f8b63/content.htm
To access any Database from XI, you will have to install the corresponding Driver on your XI server.

What are the best approaches for mapping re-start in OWB?

What are the best approaches for mapping re-start in OWB?
We are using OWB repository 10.2.0.1.0 and OWB client 10.2.0.1.31. The Oracle version is 10 G (10.2.0.3.0). OWB is installed on Linux.
We have number of mappings. We built process flows for mappings as well.
I like to know, what are the best approches to incorportate re-start options in our process. ie a failure of mapping in process flow.
How do we re-cycle failed rows?
Are there any builtin features/best approaches in OWB to implement the above?
Does runtime audit tables help us to build re-start process?
If not, do we need to maintain our own tables (custom) to maintain such data?
How did our forum members handled above situations?
Any idea ?
Thanks in advance.
RI

Hi RI,
How many mappings (range) do you have in a process flows?Several hundreds (100-300 mappings).
If we have three mappings (eg m1, m2, m3) in process flow. What will happen if m2 fails?Suppose mappings connected sequentially (m1 -> m2 -> m3). When m2 fails then processflow is suspended (transition to m3 will not be performed). You should obviate cause of error (modify mapping and redeploy, correct data, etc) and then repeat m2 mapping execution from Workflow monitor - open diagram with processflow, select mapping m2 and click button Expedite, choose option Repeat.
In re-start, will it run m1 again and m2 son on, or will it re-start at row1 of m2?You can specify restart point. "at row1 of m2" - I don't understand what you mean (all mappings run in Set based mode, so in case of error all table updates will rollback,
but there are several exception - for example multiple target tables in mapping without corelated commit, or error in post-mapping - you must carefully analyze results of error).
What will happen if m3 fails?Process is suspended and you can restart execution from m3.
By having without failover and with max.number of errors=0, you achieve re-cycle failed rows to zero (0).This settings guarantee existence only two return result of mapping - SUCCSES or ERROR.
What is the impact, if we have large volume of data?In my opinion for large volume Set based mode is the prefered processing mode of data processing.
With this mode you have full range enterprise features of Oracle database - parallel query, parallel DML, nologging, etc.

Vendor change in PO for delivery charges after MIGO

Dear All,
System is allowing to change the Vendor for delivery charges even after the MIGO has been done, without any message (warning/error). The Vendor field is editable in PO, even after MIGO.
Vendor was changed, But at the time of MIRO system is showing the old vendor, not the changed one.
Problem is explained with one example-
PO created with "Freight" Delivery charge - with vendor ABCD.MIGO was done.
After MIGO the exact vendor for the Freight was know, Vendor XYZ . As system is allowing to change it without message, it was changed. No change log is there for the changed vendor.
But now at the time of MIRO, system is suggesting u201CPlanned delivery costu201D for Vendor ABCD, not for XYZ.
So how to proceed as the payment has to be done for the new Vendor XYZ.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Vijay P.Bhaware

Hi,
Please check SAP Note 549408 - Conditions modifiable after invoice receipt for the same.
THis will resolve your issue.
Symptom
You already posted an invoice receipt for a purchase order with delivery costs, but no goods receipt yet. After that you can still change conditions of type 'B' (Delivery costs) via Transaction ME22 or ME22N in the purchase order.
Solution
Refer to the attached advance corrections.
In addition you must adjust message V1631 as follows:
Change the short text of the message via Transaction SE91 as follows: <Z1> No new delivery costs must be entered after occurred GR/IR.
Extend the long text by the following passage in section 'Diagnosis': <Z1> After an occurred invoice receipt the change of delivery costs is not allowed in the purchase, either, as information for the correct process are no longer available and the postings can no longer or not without errors be carried out, particularly after the deletion of posted delivery costs for subsequent cancellations or invoices.

Approach for Inter Organisational BPM

Hi All,
I am doing Masters Dissertation in Collaborative BPM. My research topic is the evaluation of three approached for collaborating BPM across value chain.
Explanation of these approaches:
Centralise CBPM: Ownership of Collaborative System is with one Central Organisation and Other Partners Participate in this collaboration through various UI such as portal. Example, Collaboration between the automobile manufacturer and dealer were automobile manufacturer provides portal for dealer to place order, manage its customer and handle warranty and recalls.
Decentralise CBPM: In this approach every partner provides communication technology like Web Services for its Business Partner for collaboration. The ownership is decentralise and more flexible
Peer-to-Peer CBPM: In ideal condition in this approach every Partner should have the same technology which is developed for handling collaborative Business Processes. In this case the same modelling facility is available across the value chain.
I found below critical aspects for evaluating these three approaches:
1] Autonomy
2] Collaborative process Modelling
3] Monitoring, Controlling, and Analysis
4] “Plug and Play” based Platform for Collaboration (Includes Security, Web Service and various adapters for communication and Language Support like Java for easy custom enhancement)
5] Governance
I kindly request you all to post your views about pros and cons for evaluating these approaches from the aforementioned critical aspects.
I welcome your questions and appreciate your valuable guidance.
Thank you ,

Ganesh Sawant

PROS:
Using the Webservices you can trigger the BPM Process and pass the values from the web dypro component which will available for the end user and pass it on to the BPM Proess.
We can use EJB as a webservice, where the automated activity in the BPM can output the value based on the logic in the EJB Function. We can manage the automated activity which runs in the back ground of the process as per our logic and returns the value to the next task.
CONS
Using Webservices in the various activity with fewer data is not advisable as it takes longer time to deploy the process. And any change in the data in the webservices requires regularly re importing of the web services.

Peer-to-Peer approach for Cross Organisation BPM

What are the pros and cons of using Peer-to-Peer based decentralise approach for managing Inter-Organisational BPM?
( Peer-to-Peer CBPM: In ideal condition in this approach every Partner should have the same technology which is developed for handling collaborative Business Processes. In this case the same modelling, monitoring, and implementation technology is available across the value chain. )
What are the challenges and what are the benefits from the aspects like autonomy, governance, security, modelling, monitoring, and process ownership?
Thanks you

How to Approach for full implementation

We have a situation here that we r planning to implement
SAP BW. But here R/3 is not fully implemented. In this situation how to approach to prepare a Blueprint.
We are planning to implement SD,MM,PP,QM and FICO modules. We dont have any functional specs But we can communicate functional people. In this way how can I approach for each module.
Specially for INVENTORY and FI.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
As per my knowledge it is better if you have data at least for 5 five years but This is not mandatory. You can have BW even for 1 year data also.
Coming to your question Please contact the users and collect their requirements.
Ask them what reports exactly they are using?
What issues they have with the existing reports?
What additional fileds or colums they are expecting in BW?
Howmany users will be there?
How many roles do they have?
do they have any third party involved in the current reporting?
Do we have to ectract the data only from R/3 or from Thrid party tool (Ex Indian Statutory)also.
How many source systems do they have?
Hope this will give you idea. please post message iy you are not clear.
