Hello,
The detail can be difference per country especially about mandays calculation. The license could be the same for all countries. The estimations are:
1. 5 license  = 13,000 USD
2. Consultancy = 250 - 400 USD (depends on consultant experience and certifications)
3. The modules are ERP ranges from Financial - HR. Total modules 13 including reports.

  • CN41N and S_ALR_87013533 report not showing Production order planned cost

    Hi Experts,
    I am having issue to get total planned production order values in my CN41N or S_ALR_87013533 cost report. I am facing 2 issues :
    1. CN41N repoet does not show individual material cost planned in BOM.
    2. CN41N report and S_ALR87013533 report does not show total value but only picking fixed value.
    Example :
    1. CN41N report :
    Above screenshot shows no values in Project plan cost & Order cost column but it shows total cost as a lumpsum on top for project. I need to know how can i get material cost populated here for Project Valuated stock material?
    2. S_ALR_87013533
    This report shows Total Cost of BOM as 1 line under Material Procurement activity similar to CN41N report. Also Order value is picking from Fixed cost from planned order and total cost is added on top. How can i get Total cost picked from production order?
    Is there any Setting in PS config which allow me to pick the detail production order plan cost in both report under planned cost.
    Thanks in advance.
    Ashish

    Hi Ashish,
    I doubt whether Item level reporting  in S_ALR... (hierarchy report) is possible or not because I haven't seen item level cost in them only the lump-sum cost because they are summarized at cost object level itself. Navigation path are there which we use to go into details of cost.
    Please check the following links:

  • Use of different production versions for MRP and costing

    Dear PP Gurus ,
    We have a scenario in which there are multiple production versions for a particular product .The MRP run as welll as costing run considers only the production version 0001.
    We would like the system to consider different production versions for MRP and costing ..that is 0001 for MRP and 0005 for costing .
    Is this possible ... if yes ...Kindly suggest the config and master settings for this to happen .
    Ram ~

    Dear Ramakrishna,
    For doing the costing for a specific production version use CK11N,under quantity structure tab key you
    can assign the prod.version which is to be used for costing purpose.
    While taking MRP if you want to consider the particular Prod.version,assign the demand to the
    correct prod.version under schedule line tab in MD61.
    Otherwise the system always picksup the first prod.version for MRP.
    One more alternative is you have to lock the other prod.versions if you want the system to consider a
    particular prod.version.
    Check and revert back.

  • Management VLAN Design and Implementation

    Greetings, friends.  I'm having trouble getting a clear picture of how a management VLAN ought to look.  I just installed a Catalyst 6509-E as my core switch, and as soon as they arrive I'm going to be replacing all of our other (HP) switches with Catalyst 3560X switches.  I understand the reasoning behind segregating traffic, not using VLAN1, etc., but I've never actually implemented a management VLAN--I've always just accessed the switches via the IPs assigned to them where all the client traffic flows (not VLAN1, by the way).
    Is "management VLAN" simply what we as humans call a VLAN we dedicate to management activities, or is there something official in these switches to designate a "management VLAN?"
    Is it best practice to include SNMP, netflow, syslog, and NTP as "management" traffic?
    There's a lot of documentation talking -about- management and management VLANs, but unless I'm blind or not looking hard enough I can't seem to find any implementation whitepapers or best practices whitepapers that demonstrate setting one up on a campus LAN.  Are you able to point me in the right direction to find such documentation?  Is it perhaps buried in a manual somewhere that isn't explicitly labeled "Management VLAN Design and Implementation" or somesuch?
    What is the best practice for accessing the management VLAN?  Inter-VLAN routing + ACLs?  Multi-homed PCs or servers?  Additional PCs to be used as access stations?
    Thank you for your wisdom, experience, and advice!
    Kevin

    1. Yes, you may want to keep this traffic separate of the other traffic limiting device management access to just this vlan, as this prevents eavesdropping.
    2. Indeed all other housekeeping goes via this VLAN altough you could limit it to the interactive or session traffic.
    3. On a campus you could think of one big VLAN spanning the campus, one a multi-site environment or where you use L3 to go to you datacenters you probably need multiple management lan's. I've seen implementations where the management traffic was kept separate and even didn't use the routing protocol in use. The whole management lan was statically routed and would work even if OSPF or BGP was down.
    4. I feel a situation where the people providing support are connected on the lan giving access to the devices is probably best. A dual homed pc is a good solution I think, other customer feel the management lan should be treated as a DMZ accessible via a firewall,  but the hardcore customer insist on a second pc connected to the management lan.
    Points to consider are as always,
    Find the single point of failure. Any device, L2 L3 firewall that could cut off management from accessing a part of the network.
    Find the right balance between security, costs, easy of access for the business your in.
    Cheers,
    Michel

  • Architecture and Implementation

    Hello All,
    I am kind of new to this field and I have started building applications, and now I have two terms that I would like some to explain to me. Sounds simple and crazy but, what do the terms "architecture" and "implementation" mean in the perfect Hyperion sense. For example, what does an Essbase architecture do, for example, does he design cubes? etc and other question is about "implementation" what does it mean when someone says "I have implemented 3 planning applications?
    If someone could spare a little of their precious time to explain these terms that would be wonderful. A link would be great as well.
    Thanks

    Its recommended to maintain three environment.s
    1. Development Environment ( BOD )
    2. Quality Environment ( BOQ )
    3. Production Environment ( BOP )
    BOD : Development environment where you do all development. This environment may not be as same as Production with respect to server, resources and so on.
    BOQ: Quality environment where Business users do testing. This environment is expected to be same server, same version when compared with Production. Resources such as memory and number of servers could vary.
    Once approved by Business Users, content will be migrated from BOQ to BOP.
    BOP: Production environment only meant for usage not for any development. UAT happens here once again to check the functionality of reports & other objects
    In general, the BOQ and BOP content is always same except the objects which are under Business Users testing.
    When it comes to backup, we must take frequent backups for CMS database, Input FRS, Output FRS and Audti Database.
    The fequency depends how frequently the production environment is being updated.

    Hi Marcelo,
       Yes, there are some requirements for certificates in Expressway.
    Expressway Core (Exp-C)
    - Can be signed by either External or Internal CA
    - Better to use a cluster name even if you start with 1 peer in Exp-C cluster. In the future, if more peers are added, changes would be minimal.
    - Better to use FQDN of cluster as CN of certificate, this way the traversal zone configuration on Expressway-E won't require any change even if new peers are added to Exp-C cluster.
    - If CUCM is mixed mode, include security profile names (in FQDN format) as Subject Alternate Names
    - The Chat Node Aliases that are configured on the IM and Presence servers. They will be required only for Unified Communications XMPP federation deployments that intend to use both TLS and group chat. (Note that Unified Communications XMPP federation will be supported in a future Expressway release). The Expressway-C automatically includes the chat node aliases in the CSR, providing it has discovered a set of IM&P servers.
    - For TLS b/w CUCM, IM-P & Exp-C
      + If using self-signed certificates on CUCM, IM/P. Load Cisco Tomcat, cup, cup-xmpp certificates from IM-P on Exp-C. Load callmanager, Cisco Tomcat certificates from CUCM on Exp-C.
      + If using Internal CA signed certificates on CUCM, IM/P. Load Root CA certificates on Exp-C.
      + Load CA certificate under tomcat-trust, cup-trust, cup-xmpp-trust on IM-P.
      + Load CA certificate under tomcat-trust, callmanager-trust on CUCM.
    Expressway Edge (Exp-E)
    - Signed by External CA
    - Configured Unified Communications domain as Subject Alternate Name
    - If using a cluster, select FQDN of this peer as CN and FQDN of Cluster + this peer as Subject Alternate Name.
    - If XMPP federation is being deployed, enter the same Chat Node Aliases as entered in Exp-C.
    For more details, please refer to the Certificate Creation Guide for Cisco Expressway x8.1.1

  • Product master in CRM and R/3

    Hi Gurus,
    can anybody make my understanding clear regarding  the difference of product master in CRM and R/3. any links to know more on it will also help.
    Thank you in advance.
    Regards,
    sasmita

    Hi Sasmita,
    Here are some of inputs will help for undersatnding:
    <b>The CRM product master is a collection or arrangement of various settypes which contain specific data.</b>
    Pre-defined settypes are delivered (e.g. basic product data; conversion of unit of measure)
    Enhancement of the product master with own settypes is possible
    Settypes correspond to database tables
    Attributes correspond to your product characteristics.
    <b>Attributes can be summarized with the help of set types</b>
    In the system there are standard set types which are always available. However, you can also create and implement user-defined set types, to depict marketing data, for example.
    The usage of set types can be restricted (e.g. certain set types only allowed for products of type product) Distribution chain-dependent set types can be created.
    A set type is only permissable for a product when the set type is assigned to the category to which you then assign the product. To assign a set type to a category, use the function Edit categories and hierarchies.
    You can assign a set type to several product categories within a category hierarchy. However, each set type can only be assigned within one hierarchy. In doing so, a multiple assignment of a set type to one and the same product (over contrasting categories) is prevented.
    A product can be assigned to several categories, as long as these are within different category hierarchies. A product can also be assigned to only one category per hierarchy.
    The assignment to the base hierarchy R3PRODSTYP is vital, so that basic data set types are available, for example.
    R3PRODSTYP depicts the product types present in the R/3 system.
    Customer product numbers can be assigned. This Customer product ID is stored in the relationships
    Global Trade Item Number (GTIN)
    Customer-own checks can be defined before a product can be saved. Enhancements &#61614; Consistency check

    Thanks

    Hi,
    There is no direct way to achieve this, so you will have to restore the application/database files from a backup before this module was licensed. If you cannot afford this solution, please log a SR and see if Oracle support would suggest any workaround.

    Hi Deepak,
    In procurement scenario, assume that you have a company and you want to purchase some raw materials for manufacturing the end product.
    The stores manager in your store room realises that a particular raw material is going out of of stock (based on the inventory mngt rules) and hence he creates a request for purchase. This is called Purchase requisition creation in SAP.
    This PR will be now reviewed by the guy in procurement section. He will try to ask the production dept, whether this material is needed now. Based on the approval (PR release by release procedures), the procurement guy creates a Purchase Order on a Vendor. Once the PO is created, the softcopy of the same will be send to the vendor through email/fax/printout etc.
    Now the vendor will deliver the goods which will be received by the stores guy (Goods Receipt). Simultaneously the invoice from the vendor will be received by the Finance Dept(Invoice Receipt)
    Now the Invoice receipt will be compared with the PO, and if values and quantities are tallying , the amount will be paid based on the payment terms.So it is like
    PR-PO-GR-IR-Payment is the process cycle in procurement. Here the vendor, various depts in ur organisation plays the role.
    On the sales side, assume that you are owing a company, and you sell things. One of your customers want some materials from you.
    For this, he creates an Inquiry asking for some details about that material(price, delivery date etc)
    You will respond to that Inquiry by giving him a Quote(Quotation)
    Now the customer accepts your quotation for price, quantity, delivery date, other discounts etc and he finally creates an order for the material.
    Once you receive the order, you make the materials available, and you then deliver the materials to him (Delivery and Goods Issue)
    Subsequently you also send him an invoice.
    So the typical sales process will be like
    Inquiry-Quotation-Sales order--Delivery-Goods Issue---Invoice
    Though these are the basic processes in procurement and sales, there are lot of variations in these processes based on the business requirements.
    There are also functionalities in SAP that you can make one of your customers as a vendor of a service. For example you give consumable goods to a shop, but you buy some advertisement space in his shop.
    Hope the answer satisifies you.Pls lemme know if you need more info.
