Budget Control through User status

Dear all,
I am implementing the budget process through user status as follows
step1 User has to do the Cost planning first, So that time system does not allow to do direct budget allocation through cj30 and stop all the process like Release,PR,PO,GRN FI posting.
Step 2 approval of cost planning by HOD from this process only system allow the budget allocation.
step 3 budget approval by GM, So afer the approval of budget system should allow PR process.
Step 4 Budget Release by MD throuch CJ32 and set the user status budget released,After this status system system should allow all the process like Release,PO,GRN,MIRO,FI posting.
I did all the required configration as per requirement for above process in WBS user status, But my problem is that if suppose MD set the user status Budget released without doing the budget release through cj32 then system allowing all the process because my AVAC is not activited.
Please provide me the solution
thanks

you need to check you budget profile your availability control should get checked against Release budget mostly for overall release ( A/c to your scenario ) . So when you does CJ32 and give budget at that time AVAC status will be on WBS and if you giving less budget in CJ32 system will not allow your approver ( MD ) to save transaction.
Ind. 'Overall' Ind. 'Releases' Avail. control against ...
X X Overall budget released
Make setting shown as below in your budget profile with activation type 1 .

Controlling through User Status

Dear SAP Gurus,
I have the following scenario:-
Status Profile:PROFILE01
1. User status - CRTD
2. User status - REL......................Both with the same Lowest and Highest Number and with same priority and Position
The status pofile is assigned to M2 Notification type.
Now please let me know with these customization already done, how to go about the following:-
1. US - CRTD - is to be active till the Corresponding Mnt.Order is CRTD But not Released
2 US-REL- to be active once the Mnt.ORder is Released.
Please help me out. Thank you very much in advance

hi
while creating the user status ,just doble click on the line which will lead to another screen where you can allow or forbid or set the business transaction .
Assign this user status to the object type notification
make the user status CRTD as Initial and for US REL maintain the set indicator for the required business transaction

Create APG ( approval granted) status in process order through user status

Dear Gurus,
My business requirement is to create APG ( approval granted) sytem status in process order through user status functionality, if possible.
This needs to be activated while creating process order itself. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Satish

As of this date, we have still not implemented a fix, but I did get some information from someone else who has.
I'll post his information here for all to see. Hope you find it helpful.
From: Joe
Yes we managed to do it.
After several false starts and CMOD/projects which suffered because only the default keys (for order number, aufpl etc) were in place and not the actual, we coded up the IN_UPDATE method in the WORKORDER_UPDATE badi. This gives us the final format after the DB save (but before the commit). The update of the STATUS using the SAP std function module was actioned successfully but the status profile was not actually passed through. We assumed that this was because of the update task - so we introduced an INSERT into JSTO instead (a bit naughty I know, but desperate needs etc). If you require anything more let me know.
Best Regards
Joe

Can the business transaction be controlled using user status profile?

Hi All
there is a requirment that in a project there will be 3 stages of approval.
Each stage of approval should allow specific business transaction.
eg. When the project is apporved in 1st stage then only PR's and pln Oders can be raised.
When 2nd stage is approved then PR's can be converted to PO.
When 3rd stage is approved then and Production activity can take place.
I would like know whether user staus profile can be used to control the business transactions? If yes how?
If user status is not possible, can any one help me out?
Regards
Paimal

Hi ,
As per me this scenario can be handled without user status
When the project is apporved in 1st stage then only PR's and pln Oders can be raised.
If ur generating PR/ planned order thru MRP run it is only possible after WBS release.So give the WBS release authorisation to 1 st authority.
When 2nd stage is approved then PR's can be converted to PO.
Put release strategy to PR so that there can be check by autourised person.
When 3rd stage is approved then and Production activity can take place.
Give production order Release authorization to person who is responsible for production planning.
It is not suggestable to look at this scenario for applying user status.

Action condition through user status as well as date profile

Hi All,
My scenario is like action will be triggered through date. I have the scenario like we hv to create the exchange order and after that we hv to create the sales prder. The maximum time gap betewwen the exchange order and sales order is 1 month. If customer does not return the goods within 21 days we hv to send a mail to customer saying "you have another 7 days to return the product" means before 7 days we hv to send a warning mail to customer. Again if the customer send the old goods then we will make a fresh order on the reference on exchange order. Can u tell me how can I achieve this through action peofile. That is condition will be date management and user status.
Status is opened state. Before 7 days mail will be sent to customer. If customer does not return the product the status will be cancelled.
How mail will be sending to customer automatically after 21 days to return the products?
Your help will be appreciated.
Thanx
Chinmaya

Hi Madhu,
Thanx for ur valuable time. I know the configuration of action profile and sending the mail to customer. But my requirement is suppose I create the exchange sales order today, the customer is supposed to return the product within 1 month. If customer does not return the product within 21 days I should send a warning mail on 21st day. I know to create everything, but my requirement is if I create the exchange order today, how automatically mail will go on 21st day to the customer. I created the action profile, created the date profile. But in action condtion when I am going to give the condition I am not seeing any condition that should executed through Date profile. I can execute the conditon based on user status, system status, priorityetc. But I am not seeing any condition which will be executed through Date profile.
Can u tell me how can I maintain the condition through Date profile. I have assigned the date profile to the Transaction.I have assigned also status proifle, Action profileetc whatever needed to be done.
Please help by giving valuable answer in step by step.
Thanx
Chinmaya

For Budget release / supplement User status

Hi Experts,
In project i m using a user status for taking approval / release budget .
Description                   Lower                         Highest
initial                               1                                   2
bud planning                   2                                  3
bud release                    3                                  4
release                           4                                  5
execution                       5                                  5
Here, after getting approval / Release budget i have to change staus manually (based on authorization).
Now here i want that when i add supplement budget then once again system should go on bud planning and authorized person change the status (from bud planning to bud release).
For this in OK02 i had set Bud Supplement on Bud Planning. (According to that while budget is supplement then status go back on bud planning).
Here i m little bit confused that wt level i have to select here between lower and highest. (i m taking the same level as shown above)
While testing this, i m not getting the required ans..
pls suggest me if i m doing something wrong.
Regards,

Hi,
Description Lower Highest
initial 1 2
bud planning 2 3
bud release 3 4
release 4 5
execution 5 5
Please understand this, if you want to move form bud release to bud planning, then lower limit of bud release should be 2 not 3.
as per your settings system would not move from one status to its previous status.
Lower limit is what ever the status number it scan move backwards, understand this basic concept & apply it as per your requirement, I have just explained one scenario here.
Thanks

Can PO communication language be controled through User parameter?

Dear,
I am importing material from internal vendor.While creating PO the system is giving Error "No short text maintained in language DE ".After analysis i got to know that it is due to miss match between vendor communication language and material master description language.Now we can not change vendor master communication language form DE to EN because the vendor general data is maintained by the Germans and as per the logic it should be in thier local language.The next thing is we do not want to extend material description in language DE as it may confuse Indian user.So kindly guide how to resolve this issue?
Is there any user parameter to control this language error?
Regards
Dina

what you describe is like you want go swimming without getting wet.
No, you cannot control the language from a user parameter.
you have to maintain the material descriptions in any language that is used as communication language in vendor master.
A communication language should always be a language that could be understood by both parties, you and your vendor.
a common used vendor should have EN as communication language.
There should be a design concept in your company for such cases, otherwise it is a gap and needs to be closed with a decision that one of the effected parties does not like.

ECM - user status control

Hi everybody,
In Engineering change management,
While creating a user status, we have option to set 1) what are system status can be controled by this user status
2) which system status can set this particular user status.
How do we set one user status control other user status.
In my scenarios user status B should be allowed to set from user status A, ONLY after the system status P is set.
thanks in advance for responce
Thanks
vennela

Hello,
This is possible by inserting the logic into the screen exit.
Ask your abaper to check for the exit. Also you may have to create a ZTable to maintain the status sequence.
We have done it in our project

Budget Control at top level WBS only

Hello All,
I have a requirement from client where I need to activate the Budget control (90% warning and 100% error). I have done the setting accordingly.
Now the scenario is such that when client is doing budgeting, they are allocating the budget only at top level WBS (they have a different legacy, where they are doing there detail planning n budgeting, but since they want the feature of budget control in PS, they will do minimal budgeting in PS). As per my settings when I budget top level WBS and save the availabity control is activated (with no budget on lower level WBS). Now when I try to do some postings/or assign that WBS to PO, even with a value of 1 USD, i am getting an error of budget exceeded, which is fine as per the settings as that WBS is having 0 budget.
The requirement from client side is such that they want AVAC to be activated only at top WBS and do postings to lower WBS. But if the total of lower WBS exceed the budget of top WBS, they should get an warning or error. For example:
WBS level BUDGET ACTUALS
1               100
2                              50
2                              50
so as soon as the actuals touch 100, the system should give an error/warning. Note that the 2nd level WBS are not budgeted in SAP, so budget is 0 on them.
I have 2 questions:
1.Is it possible to activate AVAC only for top WBS ?(without any enhancement/development)
2.How the AVAC will work, if the total of 2nd level WBS exceeds the budget of top WBS (as explained in example above)?
Awating your replies.
Thanks
Sarang

Thanks Virendra, it was useful.
I tried other way round also i.e. by not marking the release tab in OPS9 and activating AVAC in CJ30.It works in that way too.
For my other question, regarding activating AVAC only at top level, we can achiebve that by using transaction control in user status.
Thanks

Authorization control for "Revoke Status Closed"

Dear Experts,
We are trying to restrict the authorization of business transaction u201CClosedu201D & u201CRevoke status closedu201D through authorization control for transaction COR2.
For that I have included authorization objects- K_ORDER, K_VRGNG, I_VORG_ORD in the user profile.
I have also added these objects in SU24 with check indicator u201CChecku201D & proposal u201CYESu201D
Through authorization object- K_ORDER I succeeded to restrict business transaction u201CCloseu201D.
But I am unable to restrict u201CRevoke Status Closedu201D.
I have also tried for this with user status but through user status also I am unable to restrict u201CRevoke Status Closedu201D.
Can anybody help me for this.
Regards
Vivek

Dear ,
You can do it through two option :
1.Apply Screen variant -SHD0 at user level in which you can switch off menu path of TECO/REVOKE etc.
Refer : http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/TransactionVariant-AStepbyStepGuidefor+Creation
2.You can try User Status at Production Order level .Refer : authorization for TECO
You can also check by User Exit : PPCO0007 (Exit when saving Production Order)

When connected to my Ford Mondeo, my ipod nano can be controlled through interface. But after while it comes up with message 'loading data' and then freezes. Anyone else got the issue?

When connected to my new Ford Mondeo, my ipod nano can be controlled through user interface in car. This worksd most of the time, but after a while if I try to change the music or search, it comes up with message 'Loading Data'. I then have to pull out USB and reinseert, at which point it works again. Has anyone esle expereinced this/have a solution?

Does not matter if anyone else has this issue. You need to contact the Ford dealership. It's their product you are having problems with.
If you really want to know if anyone else has this issue, post on Ford's Mondeo message boards. It's where the Ford car owners hang out.

User Status - Restrict FI Posting

Hi All,
The scnerio in my project is as follows,
After completion of the project system status set as "TECO". I am not going to set system status as "CLSD"
After TECO, system is allowing FI-Postings to WBS Elements. I nned to restrict this posting through User Status.
1. How to go ahead?
2. If I set user status to Project definition, Will it apply to all WBS elements?
Regards
Suresh

Hi ,
For creating user status we have to use transaction OK02
Here create a user status profile with user status NFIP- FI posting not allowed.
Select object type as WBS element and once u double click on the NFIP - FI posting not allowed u can see the system status. For the system status TECO select the radio button set. So that when u do the TECO for WBS the NFIP status will be activated.Also similarly for FI posting options select forebidden option against the individual system status.
This user status profile u have to assign to the project profile.
2.If I set user status to Project definition, Will it apply to all WBS elements? As per me this is not possible. Only PREL ie partial realeas of Project defn can restrict release of project.

Hi Experts,
I want control on generation of PR , PO before project has been budgeted.
For that I have created status profile and 2 status as BUGD and NBUD. I also link this status profile in OPSA.
But still my PR and PO are generated without allocating budget to them.
Just now I have checked that without CJ30 , WBS is not releasing. But network and Activities below it canbe release so I can make PR and PO's. I need control on total PR , PO generation.
please guide me in this topic.
Thanks and Regards

Please search forum - there are lots of threads on how to use user status to disallow PR and PO

Thanks.
Any idea if this could be used in iRecruitment? We have a lookup in iRec 'IRC_EMP_CAT' and its not extensible. I need to add in more categories there but cant do so. Do you think this window can do what I need?
