BOM Validity Using ECM

Hello All,
We are currently reviewing the ECM functionality to assistn in BOM validity maintenance. I have made the necessary changes in SPRO to activate this functionality. My initial testing utilizing the Change Master and associating it with the BOM works fine. However, the question I had was more around having to make retroactive changes. I noticed that the system using the Entered or Created date from the transaction to determine the BOM validity. Is there anyway to influence the BOM validiy to look at document dateof the transaction instead of entered date? Has anyone run into this type of issue before?
Thanks for your help.
Gus

Dear Sir,
That is what I have done for a material.
Apart from making Routing again after deleting the BOM, do I need to take care of any other thing?
Thanks & Regards,
Rohit.

Hi Krishna,
You can use change numbers to change independent (recipe) formula in the PLM-Recipe Management.
The object formula is assigned to the object type specification (type 60 of the change management).
For the object type specification the use of the object management record is not supported in the SAP standard.
Only the change documents are available.

BOM validity period

Hi friends
can we restrict the BOM validity period. ex: particular BOM validity should be from 23.06.2008 to 29.06.2008.
warm regards
ssp

Hi
You can restrict the BOM validity using change number but the valid to date is always assigned as 12/31/9999. I do not know what is the real business requirement. Do you have valid BOM after 29/06/2008 which is valid to another validity period.
follow this process if it works for you.
Create a change number with valid from date 23.06.2208.
Make the changes in BOM using this change number , BOM will be changed with valid from date 23.06.2008 and valid to date 31/12/9999.
if you have new bom from 30.06.2008, create a new change number with valid from data 30.06.2008 .previous BOM will be valid till 29.06.2008.
Thanks

BOM Validity-ECM

Hi Gurus,
How to configure BOM validity from to to date ?
Before posing this question, I have gone through the threads in SDN.
As said, I tried to create BOM with ECM. Valid till date is not changing.
BOM-1 valid from 01.01.2008 to 31.12.9999 with ECM No
BOM-2 valid from 01.07.2008 to 31.12.9999 with ECM No
As per the configuration, BOM-1 must be valid till 30.06.2008 and in display mode dates must be 01.01.2008 to 30.06.2008.
regards
Ram Kumar

Hi Ram,
This is not possible in Standard SAP.
Eevry time the Vaild to will be 31.12.9999 (this is system setting).
This is valid if you use ECM or Not.
But, will ECM you can control this..
With Revision level concept you can control the BOM explosion also..

BOM Validity

Hi All
Is it possible to change the validity dates of the BOM ?
As, when I tried to change the "valid from" date of BOM using CS02, SAP doesn't allow me to do so.
The columns "Valid to" and "Valid from" are greyed out.
Can it be done as I want to change the "valid to" date from 31.12.9999 to tomorrow's date.
Are there some SPRO settings to be changed ?
Thanks in advance !!!
Vineet

Hi
As per my knowledge, the Requirement can only mapped using ECM (Engineering Change Management).
1) Follow the link for the steps to configure ECM
[ECM|http://www.sap-img.com/pp007.htm]
2) Create Change no in CC01 and use the change no in CS01/CS02

BOM Validation date

Hi All,
In BOM creation, the validity of all the component are from current date to the max. of 31.12.9999 but I want to have
1. Specific Duration for Compenent of a BOM and
2. Specific Duration for that BOM
Can it be possible?
Sekhar

Dear Mr.Sekhar,
1.As far I know I dont think we can fix the Valid to Date for a BOM.
2.Even Using ECM you can not fix the Valid To Date for a BOM.
3.Using with or without ECM you can change the Valid From date of a BOM while
creation itself .
4.If you do so then the BOM will be valid only from the date which you entered
while creation.
5.ECM is used only to track the Changes that happened for BOM items along
with the date effectivity.BOM history can be obtained.

BOM validity by order batch (pharmacy)

Dear PP Gurus,
Currently we are implementing PP-PI in pharmacy.
There is one requirement that i think it is impossible in PP-PI
but maybe you can give me some idea about this.
My client want the BOM validity is by batch.
The change active is not by date but by batch
for example
this change of BOM is valid start from batch D000600
prior to D000600 still used old BOM
is it possible??
best regards,
Freddy Ha

Hi Katti and Adler,
As we use strategy 40 we will user planned independent requirement.
in some point you are right Mr Katti (fo your command : it doesn't make any sense),
when we create planning we do not state the batch.
So MRP will run without clue which batch is it....
After production order created then batch is created.
I will look into parameter effective for BOM as Mr.Adler stated.
Parameter activity will only works with MTO strategy or Production by Lot only.
When we create SO for MTO / create lot for production then system will ask the batch.
So MRP will run according parameter activity from SO / from Lot.
Thanx once again for help.
Good day.
Best regards,
Freddy Ha

BOM "valid from date" in transaction CSKB

The business process is like this -
1. We create sales order ( VA01)
2. In sales order, we enter configurable materials as items.
3. Then we freeze/change the BOM for sales order and line item through t-code CSKB.
The problem is in CSKB, "Valid from date" of order BOM components is defaulted using the "required delivery date" in Sales Order. We want to default current date (system date) as the "valid from date". Please suggest how it can be done.
Regards,
Bijay

Shailesh,
While creating the BOM have you used the change number ...? if yes then display that change number and check wheather do you have any alternative date mention in it.
check validity date of change number as well as BOM validity.
another reason can be you need to apply SAP note 1278790.

Hope it helps you.

Hi,
Your error message are not displaying because u does not made Message-Resoucrce property file (Resource Bundle) when you make it .
give it entry in

<message-resources parameter="ApplicationResources" />
and
define key and corresponding error message to key in this ApplicationResources i.e
#Error Resources
label.search.ssNum=Plz Enter correct ssNum

How do I do validation using SDK.

How do I do validation using SDK.
We have created different warehouses for the client business operations.
For eg:
1. Inspection Stores
2. Rejection Stores
3. Main Stores
In Goods Return & A/P Credit Memo, other than RejectionStores is
selected, we want to generate a warning message.
How do I do this through SDK.
I need the code sample for the following activity:
1. Reading the data available at each row of the current form (Goods
Return/ A/P Credit memo)
2. Validate the data with a paricular warehouse
3. Generate warning message.
I could not find any samples related to this.

There is a method called MessageBox for the Application object. Have a look at
the documentation, everything is there.

Struts2 - Dynamic values in expression while doing validations using annota

Hi,
I am using Struts2. I am doing validations using annotations in action class.
I have many forms having same type of fields say zip code.
I am adding validations like below in each action class having zip code field
@Action(value = "/saveData")
@Validations(
     regexFields = {
          @RegexFieldValidator(fieldName = "databean.zipCode", expression = "^([1-9]{1}[0-9]{4}(-[0-9]{4})?)$", key = "errors.zipcode.format", message = "errors.zipcode.format")
public String saveData() throws Exception {
Now, in case if I need to change the expression for zip code validations, then I need to modify the same in each action class.
I would like to know if there is any way to use java variable or property for expression so that i only need to change at one place (value of variable) and all actions get modified.
I want something like below
private static final String ZIP_CODE_FORMAT_EXPRESSION = "^([1-9]{1}[0-9]{4}(-[0-9]{4})?)$"
@Action(value = "/saveData")
@Validations(
     regexFields = {
          @RegexFieldValidator(fieldName = "databean.zipCode", expression = "${ZIP_CODE_FORMAT_EXPRESSION}", key = "errors.zipcode.format", message = "errors.zipcode.format")
public String saveData() throws Exception {
Thanks
Krishan Babbar

Thanks
That is working..
I defined my expression as constant in my another file and it is working fine....
One more question i need to check space in expression but its not working... I tried following:
expression = "^([a-zA-Z0-9@_.-\\s]+)$" and expression = "^([a-zA-Z0-9@_.-\\\\s]+)$"

Pre-validation using JavaScript cannot work in JSF?

Sometimes we need to do pre-validation using JavaScript in some senarios that data need be entered and validated at client site before it reaches to Web Application Server. Remind that JSF is a server validation. Creator seems not to allow Developers to do pre-validation using JavaScript for any editable input fields in form. I will illustrate an example and hope anyone can help me to solve it out.
Assume that if we write the a new web page that allows User enters Name and Phone. The pre-validation function called test() is written in JavaScript for validating field Phone. For simplicity, the below HTML/JavaScript without nested in table is a simple one for HTML form.
<html>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript">
function test(){
     if (form1.phone.value == "")
          alert("Please enter phone number in digits.");
          return false;
</script>
<form name=form1>
<input id="phone" type="text" size=20><Br>
<input id="name" type="text" size=20><Br>
<input type="submit" id="submit" onclick="test()" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Now, we consider using Java Studio Creator to generate the same form as describing above. The script is shown below:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<jsp:root version="1.2" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page">
<jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/>
<f:view>
<html>
<head>
<title>testForm Title</title>
</head>
<body rave-layout="grid">
<h:form binding="#{testForm.form1}" id="form1">
<h:inputText binding="#{testForm.textField1}" id="phone" style="position: absolute; left: 192px; top: 96px; width: 168px; height: 23px"/>
<h:inputText binding="#{testForm.textField2}" id="name" style="position: absolute; left: 192px; top: 144px; width: 168px; height: 23px"/>
<h:commandButton binding="#{testForm.button1}" id="submit" style="position: absolute; left: 192px; top: 216px" value="Submit"/>
</h:form>
</body>
</html>
</f:view>
</jsp:root>
After running Script that Creator created, the HTML is generated and reduced (for simplicity) as follows:
<f:view>
<html>
<body rave-layout="grid">
<form action="/rave/rave" id="form1" method="post">
<input id="form1:Phone" type="text"></input>
<input id="form1:name" type="text"></input>
<input id="form1:button1" value="Submit" onClick="test()"></input>
</body>
</html>
</f:view>
Take a look carefully at <input> elements. We see the syntax for naming for each "input" element that there is a semi colon added between form1 and phone or form1 and name. This syntax is generated from built-in JSF components. Hence, I rewrite the test() JavaScript function to match with the naming that Creator generated as follows:
<script language="JavaScript">
function test(){
     if (form1.form1:Phone.value == "")
          alert("Please enter phone number in digits.");
          return false;
</script>
Clearly, this JavaScript cannot be worked because of a semi column that Creator has named it.
I have tried to work arround for this but cannot find a solution except changing the name such as: from <input id="form1:phone" ...> to <input id="form1_phone" ..>. But I could not change or modify the scripts because it is generated from JSF components when running it under browser.
I guess to solve this problem, the naming for elements in form should be reconsidered in the next release of Java Studio Creator.

Hi Marie,
I currently sucess in client pre-validation using JSF. I found a way to do it.
Please take a look of how javascript has been added in the following scripts:

The key for getting data value from Form based on Javascripts is var userName = form["form1:textField1"].value;

Valid Use of a Collection in SCCM

I've read the contents of this post with much interest and would like to ask about whether my particular requirement is possible.
When we build a server for the first time we need to ensure that it is not placed in collection with other production servers for obvious reasons. So I was thinking about creating a provisional collection
container where we can place newly built servers pending the QA of the build. The container will resemble the Production Collection in every respect except who has permissions to perform maintenance tasks on the objects in the collection. So if there is an
issue with the build and we need to delete the object or reset its maintenance flag, we don't risk inadvertently doing this to a normally functioning production server. That way we can also restrict who has the authority to maintain the collection to the build
teams. Only when the server is fully functioning and provisioned in AD and formally handed to the run teams, will it be moved to the Production Collection.
Is this a valid way to use Collections? If so is there any existing SCCM Task Sequence tool that will move servers between containers or do we need to develop one?
Many thanks....

Hi,
It sounds like a valid use of Collections. There is no builtin tool to move a device from a collection to another, you could check out the Right Click tools for SCCM 2007 and see if there is one or, simply change one of the right click tools script to have
that feature.

Not valid use of the New word

Hi,
I have an old script in visual basic 6 which I need to modify.
In the variables declaration I have the following:
Dim test as mscomm
and later I instantiate this variable in the following way:
set test = new mscomm
In the components I have selected the following:
Microsoft comm control 6.0
I must say that it works fine when I have this in an ocx but I would like to debug a piece of code. The error is in the line with the New and the error is: Not valid use of the New word.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance. Regards.

You can't have the "set" in VB.NET.
If you create a new project and copy-paste the old VB6 code into your file it will convert most of the code for you to be compatible with VB.NET.
I think MSComm might be a Shared class. If so you don't need "test = new mscomm"
You can just use "test.CommPort = 2" for example. I'm not sure about this because this is the only example I could find.
