Basic Settings for Lifecycle planning

Hello All,
I want to maintain the basic settings of Life Cycle Planning to use Like Profile
Transaction: /SAPAPO/MSDP_FCST1 - Lifecycle Planning
My question is; is it a must to use 9AMATNR and 9ALOCNO characteristics in our POS?
I have seen the sentence below in OSS note: 354660
**If you are using a characteristic for a product and do not want to use the 9AMATNR characteristic, you must specify the characteristic you would like to use.The 9AMATNR characteristic must exist in the planning object structure if you want to use it as a characteristic for a product.Only then can a LIKE profile be used.In this regard, see the information on the /SAPAPO/FCST_LIKE user parameter in note 350065.**
What I understand from this sentence is that 9AMATNR is not an obligatory characteristic to use in POS for the purpose of life cycle planning.
However when I do not use 9AMATNR I receive such an error message during the maintenance of Basic Settings for Life Cycle Planning.
*Errors have been found in your Customizing settings
*For detailed information, see consulting note #354660
*The basic settings cannot be saved
*Characteristic for product 9AMATNR is not in the planning object structur
So, does anybody know if is it a MUST to keep the 9AMATNR in the POS for lifecycle planning? May be I am doing wrong something else...
Thanks in advance

While in DP MPOS you are free to choose custom characteristics for location and product, there are certain DP functionalities like Promotion Planning which normally uses 9AMATNR as characteristic for Product. In such cases the DP MPOS in absence of 9AMATNR has an issue. Through this assignment of location and product in the MPOS, system knows the custom characteristic that needs to be mapped to 9AMATNR and 9ALOCNO for product and location.
This is useful during release from DP to SNP also.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
somnath

  • Basic Settings for Stastical Forecasting

    Hi Guys,
    Could you please provide the basic settings for Statistical forecasting.....
    Regards,
    Pullaiah.

    Hi Pullaiah,
            If you are doing stastical forecasting you have to do following setting,
    1. if you are running forecast engine at aggregated level then while creating planning area, you should define calculation type "p" for forecast key figure (For disaggregating forecast key figure at detail level)
    2.Check the forecastong box while design the planning book in initial tab page.
    3.Create forecast profile under the resopective planning area(/SAPAPO/MC96B).
    This is the basic setting you have to do before running forecast engine..
    Hope this will help you

  • Premiere Basic Settings for MTS

    A bit new to Premiere but coming up to speed fast.  I have scoured the forums and docs for the following basic questions but have come up empty.  However, I am still unclear on what to use for the basic settings for my project to get me the best results.  Basically I want to create the project in Premiere and output it as an NTSC DVD via Encore.  I have .MTS files from a Canon HG21 shot as either MXP (1920x1080) for some projects and SP (1440x1080)  for others and so when I start a project, I:
    leave the Project presets but select the Capture Format as HDV
    not sure what to set for the Sequence presets.
    Would love any guidanceor pointers to the rights docs.  Thanks!

    I guess the HG21 is an AVCHD camera, it definitely is not HDV. You should use sequence settings that reflect the majority of your material. If 2/3 of your material was shot at 1920 x 1080, use that as the sequence setting and just use the rest of your material in that sequence.

  • Basic Settings for BADI

    Hi All,
    I would like to set BADI to transmit contracts from SRM to MM and I am going >>>Customizing under BADi --> Follow on documents --> Create Contract in back-end  but then I do not know how to move.
    Could you please explain me basic settings for BADI.How to set  and configure ?
    Thanks in Advance,
    #Bill J.

    Bill,
    Hi. You would only implement this BADI if you would like to modify the functionality/values of the contract interface to MM.
    To do this proceed as follows:-
    1) Press the execute button (As per you navigation in SPRO mentioned).
    2) Specify an implementation name (Start with a Z or Y) - press enter (You will need a developers key from service.sap.com)
    3) Give the implementation a name and SAVE to a transport package
    4) Select the interfaces table and navigate (double click) on the method applicable (CONTRACT_INTERFACE_FILL or CONTRACT_PROCESS_TYPE_FILL)
    5) Enter the code you would like SAVE & activate.
    6) Go back to the implementation (F3 to go back) and activate the implementation (CTRL-F3).
    7) Test and if this works transport the development through the landscape.
    Cheers

  • A mac basic settings for FinalCutStudio

    Hi.
    I'm planning to buy a mac for editting with final cut studio.
    I'm not so sure which one is the best in my case (macbookpro, Imac, MacPro).
    I'd like to know finalcut ussers opinion: what are the basic settings a mac must have to operate real nicely FinalCutStudio?
    Thanks

    Actually, neither FullHD.
    FullHD is like Sasquatch.
    5D is highly compressed h.264 video, which is mpeg-4 compression.
    EX3 is XDCAM, which is mpeg-2 compression.
    Not that the cameras can't produce pretty pictures, but they're not FullHD. What is FullHD anyway? If I owned Aiwa, I'd start working on the crappiest camera I could make and call the format "FullHD" and everyone would buy it.
    Either camera will produce footage that can easily be transcoded to ProRes or ProRes LT for a smooth post production workflow.
    Sounds like you want a MacPro.

  • Order type settings for  convert planned order to production order

    Dear sir,
    I have 1 company code ,under 2 virtual plants are there.My scenario is plant 1(main plant)and plant 2 (virtual plant)
    both plant same FERT material.in plant 2 i am creating sale order and atual production will be done in plant 1.
    FERT material plant 2(strategy-40 sp.procurement-40 setting in spro ref plant (plant1) )and  plant 1 material (strategy 82)
    run the MRP MD50.panned orders are created but iam not getting production orders directly not getting the production orders
    .i have done settings in spro OPPE order type is given.in MD04 manual conversion planned order to production order system asking order type ,but i given order type in OPPE
    What are the settings for  production order directly from sale order at the time of RUNNING MD50
    Regards,
    Naresh.

    Hi,
    You will not get a production order out of MD50. That would have to be set up in the SD customizing for the sales order item, but I am not sure that would work with your two-plant setup.
    After MD50 you need to run CO41 for the collective conversion (and I also recommend the mentioned production scheduling profile customizing and then maintain this profile in the material master work scheduling view)

  • Basic Settings for new BW QA Box

    Hi All,
    i got a problem in BW QA.
    The BW QA server was a new one. I have created new requests for all the master data infosources and transported them sucessfully.
    The problem is when i opening the infopackage which was transported to QA i am getting a popup with "Caution ! - The transfer method has changed" and when i see in the infopack the processing method was changed to ALE and i could'nt see the PSA option there. The infopack in Dev was with psa.

    Do i need to do any settings as this is a New QA box.
    Can anyone send me the basic settings need to done for the new BW qa box document.
    Thanks in Advance

  • APO - Basic settings for setting up the system landscape

    Hi,
    I have a, hopefully small, issue regarding setting up the system landscape for our APO - R/3 environment.
    In our test system in R/3 I need to specify the APO release, which is not a problem. The issue I have in R/3 is when I try to save the new setting. The system asks for a workbench request even if the test system has been "opened" by the Basis resource.
    I would like to avoid creating a workbench request as we are using an external tool ( HP PPM ) for transport management and I believe I will get into trouble since this workbench request should not be transported further into our production environment. As I have understood from our APO experts the settings must be maintained per R/3 system (development - test/quality - production) as it is pointing to corresponding systems in the APO landscape.
    The question is, does anyone know how we can maintain these settings without any workbench request being created?
    This is perhaps not a APO question, but I'm not sure in what other forum I should post it.
    Thanks for any feedback
    Br,
    Lars

    Lars,
    I have difficulty envisioning any situation when you would wish to make any transportable change (workbench or otherwise) in a test system.  The normal path would be to transport the change from the dev system into the test system.  I am unfamiliar with the third party software (HP PPM) about which you speak.  However, the standard controls currently used in your transport process (third party or otherwise) should limit which transports do and which transports do not get moved into your prod system.
    I can think of several ways to approach this problem.  I think you should consult with your supervisor before attempting such changes, to ensure that you are complying with all policies and procedures that exist for your company.  In my company, this type of exception would require creation of special change management docs, and appropriate signoffs by management.
    You are right this is not an APO question, it is a Basis question.  For advice on the technical aspect of your question, try one of the Basis forums.  Pick the one that is for the DBM you are using.

  • Basic settings for  translation of workflow language.

    Hi expert,
                      I have enhanced a workflow in the ITALIAN language in development server now the client transported all the workflow from the development server to Production server which is maintained in TURKISH language. when they check production server in TURKISH language  They cant find  the definitions defined in development server.
    it was happened for all workflows. my questions is there any problem in basic setting of two servers for workflow.Or anything needs to change at configuration level.
    Please help.
    thanks
    Raj

    Hi Rajib,
    do you know if the workflows were translated?? If so, maybe the translations weren't transported. It is necessary to run a report to include these translations into a workbench transport request.

  • Settings for entering plan-data? No clue!

    Hello,
    In a BPS layout (BW3.5) I have different colums which should be enterable.
    But it is not working. I can't enter any plan data.
    The columns "Comparison" is deactivated. My WebInterface look fine.
    When I execute my WebInterface I can see my colums - but with zeros.
    Any ideas where I can make a setting that I can enter plan data?

  • Basic settings for the main window

    How do I set a frame fullscreen or minimize it? How can I replace the coffee cup logo in the upper left corner to something other? I have tried to search the API but have not found anything.

    I might help yout with the maximized state and the frame icon:
    ImageIcon i = new ImageIcon("c:/test.gif");
    JFrame f = new JFrame();
    f.setIconImage(i.getImage());
    f.setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);To set the frame to "real" fullscreen (removing the title bar), set:
    JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(false);I think, that some of these solutions require jdk 1.4.x

  • Organization View for Succesion Planning-My Org. Units!

    Hi,
    We are in process of implementing Nakisa (Release: 301_701) with EHP4
    for few components including Succession Planning.
    We have completed Admin settings for Succession Planning. When we log
    in to End User section for succession planning & go to My Work
    Area>>Visualize>>My Org. Units- Initially it was giving error "Cannot
    find the root of your orgchart. The orgchart box may have been deleted
    or incorrectly specified, or no valid org structure can be found for
    the selected effective date. Please change the root of the chart or
    select another effective date".
    After closer inspection & using debugging for RFC
    HRMSS_GET_ORGSTRUCTURE_AS_XML, we got to know that there are few
    Organization Views which are hard coded (somewhere) but were not
    present in OADP configuration for MSS. These Org. views are (1)
    TMC_O_S_CP_SUPO (2) TMC_O_S_CP_ORG (3) TMC_O_S_CP_POS. I tried to add
    these Org. views with relevant configuration (not sure about it
    correctness)in OADP configuration. Surprisingly, system has started
    showing responsible Org. Unit for Talent specialist. But still it is
    not showing all the Org. Units inside Responsible Org. Unit & also not
    showing the positions inside it. I think I'm going wrong in assigning
    Evaluation paths to these Object Selection rules because I do not know
    the purpose of each of these Organization Views. I tried to find some
    information in User guides & SDN but failed to got something relevant.
