BPS extraction to BI

Hello BW-BPS experts,
I have worked on R/3 to BI extractions but totally new in BPS part of BI 7.0
1. I want to know how to implement BPS in BW 7.0. Is it better practise to make different reports to view BPS data??
2. Is extraction process from BPS to BW different from extraction from R/3 modules(MM, SD etc) to BW ?? if yes then whats the difference.
3. Are there any standard datasources for extracting BPS data that we have to activate and use like what we do for LO extractions??
4. From some threads in forum i get to know that BPS dont need different server then BW as what we do for R/3, then how do we extract data from BPS to BW.
Please suggest. Points assured.
Thanks,
null

Hi sdn,
Planning functions change the transaction data in a planning package. Each planning function is assigned to just one planning level. There are various types of planning function (for example, copy, distribute, delete, formula). Parameter groups are created for a planning function. Those fields that are to be changed are determined when a planning function is defined The values of those fields are determined when a parameter group is defined.
You want to copy data from the actual version to the plan version. When you define the planning function you can determine which fields are to be changed during the copy operation. Select the Version field. When determining the parameter group you determine that version 001 is to be copied to version 002.
This one link can drive you thru......

SEM-BPS how to load additional data for special users at runtime?

Let´s assume you have a transactional info cube which contains SD Data from the source system.
If you want to show additional data, let´s say the attributes of the sold materials which can be read in the table MARA of the source system (provided you use R/3, etc.)
and you only want to show this data for a small amount of users, which need to see it, then i wonder how to do this.
am i right, that i can use the exit functions to init key figures, i.e. i could write some code which connects to the source system over RFC, downloads the data at runtime and presents it at the users excel sheet????
moreover, is it necessary to extend the existing cube, just to achieve this aim?
Message was edited by: Gideon Lenz

Hello Gideon,
there's no need to program anything. You can display any attribute in planning layouts. In your case you would extract the master data from material from SAP R/3 (MARA) into BW. The setup the layout to show the required attribute(s) in the layout in BPS.
If the attribute is relevant only for a specific user group, just give them access to this "special" layout (create a planning folder or web interface for this group).

Retraction of WBS plan from BPS to PS.

Hi,
I am attempting to use the UPR_COST_PLAN_EXEC Function Module to retract data to R3. My aim is to be able to extract the data in a fiscal period to WBS Element - Cost Element combinations in PS.
I have followed the guidance of the well written 'BPS Retraction for Cost Cener Accounting' web log and have also reviewed the topic entitled 'BPS->PS Retraction Problems' on the community.
I am still struggling to find clarity on how to implement this functinality succesfully.
I have followed step by step the guidance mentioned above. However for the Sender Structure 0ACTTYPE,
0ACT_UNIT, 0COSTCENTER are not assigned to an InfoObject(because I want to retract to PS). 0WBS_ELEMT is assigned.
I have created a BPS Planning Area and Planning Level. The planning Level and Package include
Controlling area
Cost Element
Currency
Fiscal year
Fiscal year/period
Fiscal Year Variant
Unit of measure
Value type (Restricted to 20)
Version (Restricted to 0)
WBS Assignment (IM)
The Planning Function is set up as suggested. Controlling Area and Cost element (All other available fields are assigned to be changed) are not included in the fields to be changed because the system complained about it (Is there any guidance on how these fields should be assigned).
The Parameter Group is set up as suggested. Other than
Retr. R/3 Comp. (set as 9)
BTW is there any guidance of the following settings (all currently set up as suggested)?
Controlling Area
Cost Element
In the InfoCube I have records with all the data elements in the planning element filled and the WBS elements, cost elements match records in R3 with actual postings against.
If I use my very limited debugging skills. If I look at the values in xth_data[x], the values are as I would expect cost element, fiscal period and wbs element are available correctly in the structure.
When function UPBR_DATA_PACKAGE_MAP is called the values are available correctly in ith_data[x]. The function completes without error. However if I look in report S_ALR_87013531 the values are not updated.
This is very frustrating. If any one has any really sound guides or a good approach for debugging or checking of pre-requisites or advice in general I would be over the moon.
Thanks. Ross.

Hi Ross,
I just saw your response in sdn that you were able to solve the issue. Can you please let me know how did you resolve. Below are the settings which Iam currently using; greatly appreciate your help....
We are using WBS & ABCPROCESS combination to retract the project cost;
UPBR_RULE Mappings:
Rec.Field - Sender Field
0ABCPROCESS - 0ABCPROCESS
0WBS_ELEMT - 0WBS_ELEMT
0FISCPER3 - 0FISCPER3
0FISCVARNT - 0FISCVARNT
0FISCYEAR - 0FISCYEAR
0OBJ_CURR - USD (Constant)
0VERSION - ZFEVRSION (custom field)
0AMOCCC - ZFEMSTR (custom field for amount)
Parameter Group Settings
Retr. R/3 Comp. - 9
Retractor Control - 4
Delta Update - 1
Sender str. - UPB_SND_COPS
Destination - PDSCLNT300
Test mode Is Active - 0
R/3 Version - VA1
Wait for Update - 1
Controlling Area - 01
Cost Element - 02
CElem category - 03.
When I execute the planning function after manually creating few records. It does run sucessfully and the below message will be displayed;
2 data records were read, 0 of them were changed, 0 generated.
Iam not sure what Iam missing. Please let me know your inputs....
Looking forward to hearing from you.
thanks

Cost Center data Extraction from R/3

Hello,
I am using extractor 0CO_OM_CCA_1 to get CO data into BW-BPS. After examining the resulting data into BW, I have a a problem: The customer uses movement types JVIV, RKIV, RRIV in R/3 for some of their cost centers, and they want those movements to be excluded from the extraction. However, I can see no valid filtering possibilities at the extractor....
Do you know how I could make this filtering?
Many thanks in advance for your help,
Eduardo.

Hi Gianfranco, thanks for your reply
I am stuck at this point because when data is extracted from R/3 into BW, there is a "conversion" for such "movement types", in which the system maps those values I mentioned from table COSP_VTYPE in R/3 into something like the following in BW:
Table RSTVTDETAIL:
VALUETYPE MEASTYPE VTDETAIL TXTSH                TXTMD
010       001000   01       Primary Costs        Primary Costs
010       001000   02       CO-Transfer          CO-Transfer
010       001000   03       CO-Allocations       CO-Allocations
010       001000   04       CO-Activ. alloc.     CO-Activity allocations
010       001000   05       CO-Settlement w act. CO-Settlement with activity flow
010       001000   06       CO-Settl. wo act.    CO-Settlement without activity flow
The problem is, I cannot find a correspondent value for those JVIV.. from R/3, and thus, all data is displayed as a total. What I intend is to separate entries related to those COSP_VTYPE values and exlude them from budgetting...
The final objective for this one is (I will try to explain it without a specific technical knowledge of financial vocabulary), that It is a requirement that imputations to a cost center that come from other cost centers, are not displayed for the former.
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you very much in advance
Regards,
Eduardo.

COPA Vs BPS (BI Integrated Planning)

Hi.
I would like to know if BPS or BI-Integrated planning replace the COPA module in SAP.
Cheers
Anand

Anand,
The COPA data that is extracted will be stored in the data warehouse layer of BI 7 and which can be accessed by a report in query designer in which the planing will happen.
The dtaa flows is like this:
1Enter and record all the business transactions in R/3 - various modules and components and transfer them to COPA.
2. Build COPA data source in R/3
3. Extact the COPA data to COPA DSO or Cube in Bi 7
4. Make a planning cube in BI 7.
5. Create aggregation levels, filters based on planning cube and actual cube.
6. Create planning functions to do perform planning calculations and apply business logic.
7. Create input ready query in query designer.
8. Launch the query and planning.
Also, since BPS is also present in BI 7 along with IP, you can do the planing in BPS component also, but any future functionalities will be delivered towards IP.

HOW TO RETRACT DATA FROM BPS 7.1 TO SRM 5.0
Regards,

Inactive master data in BPS

We are planning to use funds with old valid dates in BPS for rechrges like fund with valid dates from 01/01/2000 to 01/01/2001. When master data is extracted from R/3, it appearing with valid dates from 01/01/1000 to 12/31/9999 in dark gray color and it not appearing under help button for the 0fund in layout. We are doing this basically because this is only way they can stop postings to these funds in r/3.
If you have any ideas please let me know ?

Hi,
Why don't you create those masters directly in BPS? You can have a different naming convention, to quickly recognize these futuristic masters and not to confuse them with the live masters.
Is there any concern for directly creating them in BPS.

Project Timesheets in BPS / IP?

Hello all!
I was wondering if anyone out there has considered or is using BPS or IP for capturing capital and expense labor costs for the IT projects?
We have an aging system that needs replacing and CATTs is being considered (but we haven't ventured into PS territory or WBS_Elements yet on R3 side).
I am also working with Finance on a Global Financial Planning system and I could see these costs being fed into our Global Integrated Financial Planning system (being planned for IP / BPS).
What are your experiences with this? Any thoughts & recommendations?
Many thanks,
Kevin

Thanks for the input Ravi - and I would think that this would flow naturally into Capital planning also. I was just wondering if anyone else had come across this and considered CATTs vs BPS? I've heard the data extraction from R3 if using CATTs is complex.
Cheers,
Kevin

Questions on BPS BAPI calls and PDF forms

I will need to create a button on a BPS form and that button is supposed to call a BAPI. One of the buttons will create a PDF of the form (using the contents of the form) and print said form to a 'default' printer. The issue is that not all cFolder users will have an ECC logon name. What am I to do in this instance? Will I need to pass some type of credentials to the ECC backend in order to run this BAPI?
Also, how can I get the contents of the form(s) to the BAPI? I assume that I will need to create the PDF in the code of the BAPI. Please be patient with me as this is my first time to work with cFolders and/or BPS.
Regards,
Davis

Hi Davis,
Well, if you are able to log on the BPS application (thus, a Web Interface if I'm not mistaken) then it means that some user is logged on the ABAP-side. It is either a "personal" user or a technical (common) user, that is used for anonymous access.
You will certainly be able to track down this user with the SM04 transaction.
You should be able to add a button to the BPS page. One idea would be to call an URL with an ICF service behind that will be able to process the parameters contained in this URL.
It will be this very ICF service that will call the BAPI.

Extraction and loading of Training and Event Management data (0HR_PE_1)

hello,
I've got the following doubt:
before BI 7.0 release, extractor 0HR_PE_1 extracts event data (eventid, attendee id, calday,...) but if you load straight to cube 0PE_C01, as Calendar year/month needs a reference date (for example, event start date), you'll get total duration of event in hours or days refered to event star date.
So in a query filtered by month, you get total duration of an event that starts in the filtered month but it couldn`t end until few months later o year later, so you don´t get appropiate information.
Example:
Event calday Hours
10004377 20081120 500 but from event_attr event end date is 20090410.
In a query filtered by 200811 you get total duration time (500 hours when in 200811 event hours have been 20) or if you filter by any month of 2009 you don´t get information of duration of that event.
I had to create a copy of standar cube (without calday, only Calendar year/month, Calendar year in time dimension) and disaggrate data creating as many entries for an event as months lasts and adjust calculation of ratios duration of event (duration of event in each month/ total duration of event).
The question is: Is there any improvement or change on business content in BI 7.0 to treat Training and Event Management data? Has anybody had to deal with that?
Thank you very much.
IRB

Hi,
TEM data is stored in HRP tables.
You can load the catalog by creating LSMWs for objects Business event group (L), Business event types (D), Locations (F), Organizers (U) as per requirement.
LSMW for tcode PP01 can be used to create these objects.
To create Business Events (E) you can create LSMW for PV10/PV11.
To book attendee create LSMW for tcode PV08 as here you can specify the actual business event ID which reduces ambiguity.
tcode PV12 to firmly book events
tcode PV15 to follow up
Hope this helps.

Shreyasi.
