ASCP with sequence dependent setup resources

Hi,
we're implementing Oracle ASCP in our company based in Italy.
Currently we're not using MAnufacturing Scheduling.
We also use Discrete Manufacturing in a constraint based plan enviroment.
We have a painting department with a painting machine used to paint many different items but with only 3 colors.
I would like to now if it's possible to let the ASCP schedule work orders for this department, considering that the resource PAINTINGMACHINE has sequence dependent setup (white, black, gray).
We don't want the ASCP to plan work orders in the following way:
for tomorrow, make 3 pieces of item A white, 2 pcs of X black, 1 pc of C white and so on...
we would like to have this kind of situation:
make 3 of A white, 1 of B white, 10 of C white....5 of T white....then 10 of X black, 15 of Y black and so on....
If we configure the PAINTINGMACHINE resource with 3 different setup type and we add some CHANGEOVERS with PENALTY factor,
will the ASCP plan the work orders considering this parameters or not?
We don't want to use Manufacturing Scheduling module, cause we are a not so big company and we would like to have the Planning Manager, plan/schedule the production.
Excuse for my english.
Thanks in advance,
Giacomo Poleschi.

No, ASCP does not support this today. You would have to use Manufacturing Scheduling to get the sequencing you desire. This is, however, a candidate for release 12.

Sequence dependent setup (setuo matrix) with pooled capacity

Hi all,
We are facing a problem in the sequence dependent setup. We have a pooled capacity in ECC on which we want sequence dependent setup happening in APO. In APO orders are required to be scheduled on this resource and this resource is the primary resource. When I am trying to do the Detailed scheduling the time from the matrix is the one in which there is no predecessor.
Is sequence dependent setup not possible with pooled resource. Is it the standard system behaviour or am I missing something here.
Thanx for the help.

Insted of making pooled capacity you better try with alternate sequence.
system is behaving properly.

Easy Setups won't change with sequence.

I have to go back and forth between different sequences with different Easy Setups ascociated with them. I'm running a Kona LH card with Ver. 6, with ver. 5 everything would automatically change once clicked on the other sequence...now with the upgrade I have to change the Easy Setup everytime. I don't know what I missed. If this has been addressed a million times already I apologize, my faulty brain often let's me down. Thanks

Every time I switch from a DV project to a DVCPRO HD project, I'd have to change the settings. Nothing automatically changed...and I am running FCP 5.1.4.
You still have to do this. If you want to monitor DV and make DV sequences, choose the DV/NTSC setting, then move to DVCPRO HD, choose the DVCPRO HD settings.
Always had to do this.

Sequence dependent lot-size planning as a basis for PP/DS blocks?

Hi ,
I consider the following system setup for a Mill Products planning implementation .
1) In SNP one performs SOP planning with common goals to adjust sales plan, establish equipment maintenance plan, transportation plan, etc. The first month of the SNP plan is supposed to be in daily buckets. Using the SNP optimizer is a good option since the business goal is to use equipment more efficiently, let's say to minimize setup costs, and there are warehouse limitations for semifinished products as well.
2) In PP/DS we are going to use CDP and block planning since it is the best practice.
3) SNP planned orders can be used as a basis for PP/DS blocks on the resource, upon the condition that the configuration of SNP product - kmat variant and block requirements match.
In SNP i see that the SNP PDS has a duration of 1 day (that's fine), but the sequence dependent lot-size planning requires a bucket of at least 1 week long (1 month in my case) since the SNP orders are sequence-optimized only inside of one bucket. The result of such an optimization are additional counters assigned to SNP orders according to their sequence minimizing setup costs. However, orders are not scheduled according to the sequence.
So far it looks like such a combination is not useful as
- Orders in monthly buckets are not scheduled on days and cannot serve as a basis for block dates proposal for PP/DS block planning.
- If a product production volume is less than 1 day, SNP cannot create any more detailed block in principle since the minimal time bucket is daily bucket.
I searched over forums on these or similar topics, however no definitive answer so far for the question in the subj.
Could anyone bring more light on this ? Maybe I am missing something in the setup or sequence dependent lot size planning was designed for other purposes/industries?
Best regards
Vladimir

Hello Asim,
Issue one
in product selection for propagation range you can set your selection criteria which selects the products dynamically. You just have to change your report variants for planning run. Do I misunderstand your concerns?
Issue two
Changing to planning procedure 1 will not delete the PFE but will prevent APO to create a new entry after any MRP-relevant changes happen or heuristic SAP_PP_020 (which creates the initial entry and does the low level code determination) is run.
In some cases procedure 1 will still create a PFE. Please check customizing for details. Thats why I would recommend to create a new planning procedure with "no reactions".
As soon as you prevent APO from creating new PFEs you can just once delete the PFEs in /SAPAPO/NETCH by just setting the first column for these materials blank (select your materials, mark column, delete indicator).
Corresponding table to MDVM is /SAPAPO/PEGKEY. Indicator for PP/DS is NETCH_RRP.
If material is not planned in APO you do not need a PFE in APO.
Issue 3
Maybe utilize table /SAPAP/PEGKEY
As I said if you prevent creating the entry you just have to delete (set indicator blank) once.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Uli

A simple team task with a single team resource; yet in reality many actual team contributions - can it be done?

What people would like to be able to do is to plan for a task in MSP to be done by a team. We plan how much work is involved and the duration.
Any number of team members can be involved in the task. As things delay and get put on hold we may have entire teams jumping in to complete tasks so utilisation is maximised. PMs do not want to open an plan every half hour to add extra resources to
plans
Can this be done in MSP in an elegant way?
What I am currently doing is asking PMs to assign all 20 generic team resources to a task; so any of the 20 team members can assign themselves to the task in the TimeSheet. (In fact they get templates with this setup: there is a join project team task with
every generic team resource added so they can swap themselves into the plan)
Obviously the PMs are aghast that Project server will not let you assign a single team resource and then allow anyone in the team to join in. Am I correct in thinking Project Server will not allow this.
(Project server 2010 - on premise)
Trying to stop the swap to Salesforce - but the errors keep a coming

Yeah the capacity planning is mathematically fine if I know the cumulative total of work across a duration - project just flattens it across however many resources are assigned.
To max utilisation resources can and will be shunted onto projects; in a week they can be put onto 20 projects to fill out the utilisation if a big project suffers a major delay. The PMs cannot spend the time rescheduling 10 plans. The resource want
to easily record time sheeted data against the projects they worked on in the past days.
Whilst "add to task" works and they all know how to use it; it only lists the projects they are a Published resource on. Even being reassigned onto a team task will not help. i.e. if I set up tasks on each and every template with the 20 spare generic
team resources on; if a team resource grabs that 1 task to be assigned - the PM must
1. accept the reassignment;
2. Open and Publish the plan; only then can that resource add themselves to a task in the plan - PMs can't spend time doing this 20 times per project!
I don't really want every resource seeing every project in the "add to task" list - but it looks like this is what I will have to do as the team tasks seems broken in many, many places.
However we already do it for support projects; everyone (who may contribute at any point to a support item) is assigned to an initial task - this makes the project list unwieldy in Add task or new task and adds clutter for the user

Depends On Resource stay in Waiting state after reconciliation

Hi,
I've come up with the following issue (which i though was handled ootb).
I have resource A which depends on resource B.
On user creation 1 access policy trigger provisioning of resource A. At the end of the creation, resource A is in waiting state.
Then we reconcile resource B account which appear in provisioned/enabled state in OIM. But resource A stay in waiting state.
If i revoke and re assign resource A access policy role, provisioning is fired.
Is there a way to have reconciliated resource fire provisioning for dependent resource ?
We are running on OIM11gR1 BP05.
Ps : i've found this topic about the subject but it's on an older version of OIM. I haven't been able to found anything relevant in patch notes
OIM - Issue with "Depends On" Objects
Thanks in advance!

Got some responses from oracle support on this issue.
They said that it was working as intended. Anyone already faced similar issues ? What step have you implemented to make it works?
Thanks!

0CS_Item with time-dependent hierarchy

Dear Experts,
we are discussing pros and cons for a time-dependent item catalog (characteristic 0CS_item with time dependent hierarchy in BW) within consolidation SEM BCS 4.0. Does anybody has experiences on this topic?
I am quite sure it will be a performance issue and it means additional reporting effort (e.g. using reference period/year in the report comparing different hierarchies).
I am not sure if there are any other risks so I it would be great if anybody has some hints.
Thanks in advance,
Birgit Laux

Birgit,
Some other things to consider:
- frequency of changes to item hierarchy. Could lead to a lot of item hierarchies in BW over time.
- hierarchy validity date does not seem to be displayed when running web queries and thus makes it difficult for the user to select the correct hierarchy when executing the query. Still looking for a fix for this.
- greater complexity in overall design. Is it really necessary to achieve correct financial statement presentation?
Virtual cube performance is not great but you could implement the data mart which provides typical BW query performance.
I stayed away from setting the item as time dependent for these reasons.

Daqmx error num: -50103 with message: The specified resource is reserved. The operation could not be completed as specified.

Hi, I am running a program where I have 4 nidaq cards on a single machine, all connected. I am trying to start a counter and keep getting that error (daqmx error num: -50103 with message: The specified resource is reserved. The operation could not be completed as specified.) in two places in my code. I understand what the error means (you can only have one task of a type per card), but I don't see where that is occuring in my code.
See below for code. I noted the two places where the error is occuring. I am debugging someone else's code, which is part of the problem.
Thanks!

PDS Creation with Object Dependency

Hello Gurus,
I´ve written a function to run BAPI_PDSSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI in order to create PDS with object dependency (Super BOM). The PDS created by my function looks good in CURTO_SIMU, but it is not respecting the characteristic dependency during PPDS Heuristic. If I take a PDS generated in ECC with the exact same attributes, the heuristics explodes the components correctly. When I run the getlist bapi, it shows both ECC created and function created with all tables (pds_header, pds_component,) filled with the same content. Though, one PDS works and the other doesnt. I am clueless.
thank you a lot.
Cheers

Schudling agreement with time dependent excise base value taking wrongly.

Sub: in migo excise base amount is not changing as per the scheduling agreement type LP ( time dependent ).
I have created the scheduling agreement type LP with time dependent.
I have maintained the price value in two validated period i.e
01/07/08 to 31/07/08 price is 100 rs.
01/08/08 to 31/08/08 price is 200 rs.
I have maintained the delivery schedule on
15/07/08 of quantity 1 nos.
When I am doing the goods receipts for the scheduling agreement on
Document date I am giving 15/07/08.
Posting date I am giving 15/07/08.
I am giving the posting date in the excise also 15/07/08.
After item ok.
When I will the excise base value it is taking 200 and also excise duty is also calculating on 200.
When I will post the document
The stock account and GR/IR account is taking 100 only
And excise duty is posting for rs: 200 only
Why the excise base value is not changing as per the validity period.
What setting I have to do the change the excise base value as per the validity date maintained in the time dependent .
regards
jrp

Hi
I was wondering in J1ID there is validity from date only no to date, Pls tell where you have maintained excise base amount based on from to period.
In J1ID if you maintain any new accesable value for the later date it will consider that.

Down Payment with P&L setup

Hi Gurus,
need some help here, currently im using sales contract creation with periodic billing setup and issue Down payment request from VF04 for billing due.
1. im intend to setup DownPayment which have P&L account being setup. Currently i cannt see any P&L During request or Payment received. please adv.
2. When i create downpayment request from Sales contract , its created as noted item.
should i proceed with F-29 and continue with F-39?
when i proceed with F-29 , should i match with document from sales contract to clear off?
when i manage to clear-off the payment and request, is it necessary proceed with F-39 still?

1. F-37 Customer Down payment request. Noted Item.
[R] GL entries appear using my customer number instead of Special GL Account.
is that normal?
2. F-29 Customer Down payment with reference to customer DPR (Button 'Request' )
posted item and SP GL Item.
[R] what is "posted item and SP GL item" meaning?
i did select request and simulate and continue with post action.
3. F-22 customer Invoice.
[R] what posting key that i should put?
should i choose "post with reference"?
4. F-39 Clear the customer down payments.
5. aginest Invoice clear the customer down payment is called clearing of DP.
[R] what is "aginest" mean?
what is step no.5 should do ?
is this will bring P&L account?

File naming with sequence

My editor requires that I name a file as in the following example:
FI_RX_London(sequence number)
if I try this while importing using file name with sequence, there will be a - sign in front of the number. My question, how do I remove the - sign

In the import dialog, pick Filename-Sequence from the drop down File Naming list. (you will have done this already). Now click the drop-down list again and choose Edit. You will now see the Filename Template Editor window; remove the hyphen from the text box that shows
{Filename>>}-{Sequence #(1)>>}. When you edit this, you will see the example just above it, reflect the change.

Problems with language dependent master data

Hi,
I created a InfoObject with language dependent master data and I am trying to upload data from a flat file.
My flat file has a 2 digit language code (EN,DE,FR,JP,ES) and when uploading the data it seems that SAP BW is only using the first digit which leads to the situation that EN and ES get treated as duplicate records.
Any help would be appreciated
thanks
Ingo Hilgefort

Hi,
ES is the Language for spanish..But the Flat file should have to represent 'S' for Spanish.
Check in Table T002 for the symbols which represent Languages and that to be used in flat file.
