BW Company to Company Patnership

Hello,
The company that I work for is based in the UK (Aerospace Industry) and is currently implementing BW 3.1 with content 3.3. The problem is that management have never used strategic reports and also that they are not clear about what there key performance indicators are. The company runs on detailed reports but we would like to start implementing strategic reports but I don't really know how to change the management team to start think that way.
Therefore we are looking for similar companies to form a patnership and benchmark our process in order to come up with key performance indicators that will then enable us to create strategic reports.
I also would appriciate any other ideas on how to go about it.
Regards
Evan

Normally BW Reports are a mirror of the business processes implemented in R/3. So I would suggest doing an analysis on what modules or industry-solution of SAP is being implemented in R/3. Then look in the business content of BW for standard reports in those areas. This will give you a rough idea of what KPIs are normally used by similar industries.
You can present these to the clients. They may not accept them as it is, but will definitely get them thinking and they might come up with some ideas.

Company Name not getting Displayed in the incoming screen

I changed my blackberry from earlier 0S 7 to Z10 two days ago, but to my surprise it is not displaying company name in the incoming call screen. I have more than 20 people whose name is repeating and not able to identify, how come this feature is not available in the new model, what is solution ?

@ is a default value as per ALV internal process. This is used in icons .
I think this is causing the confusion.
Check in the fieldcat if there is any adjsutment to be made to handle this.

How long does it take for the warehouse to show a phone as recieved so I can pay my final bill? I would like to sign up for Verizon again as I am very unsatisfied with my new company but cannot until this is resolved.

I recently switched to another competitor but would actually like to start from scratch with Verizon but cannot do so because they cannot locate my devices I mailed in to their warehouse. I switched my whole family's accounts, 3 phones and 1 mobile hotspot, to a competitor to get a cheaper rate and unlimited data but I have not been happy with their service and would like to switch back. The problem is when switching the first time I was told by a Verizon chat rep that I could send my Edge devices back in and would get credit for them and stop my edge payments which was not the way I know now it is supposed to work. After a couple of phone calls a supervisor looked at my online chat transcript and realized that I was correct and the rep had told me incorrectly that they would take my edge phones back and give me credit for them and I could close my account by only paying the early termination fees. She sent me two envelopes to send my two edge phones back in and said they would credit on my account and stop the monthly billing for them once they were received. I called a couple of weeks ago after being charged 24.99 for the both of them again for the month after my account was stopped. They said that they had not received my phones and I should have noted the tracking number from the labels the rep sent me so they could track them. I tried to find the tracking numbers but couldn't so I got back on live chat and asked them to resend me the letter from the supervisor rep as well as resending the labels and he said they could that and it should be 7-10 business days. It has now been over two weeks and I have not received the resent letter or labels so I cannot give them the tracking number to prove I sent my phones back to them. I have also researched the facility I was asked to send these phones back to and it seems this is a pretty common Verizon trick of making you prove you sent the phones and not giving you any access to the tracking numbers. I just want to pay my ETF's and close out my original account so I can start over fresh with Verizon but now I am losing faith in doing that as this is making me wonder if they are the type of company I want to deal with. Please someone who may have dealt with this help me restore my faith in Verizon and give me an idea of what to do next.

How recently did you switch? If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account. The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices. I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

I have an event in my calendar that was sent by someone that does not work for the company anymore and I am reminded 2 times a week. How do I delete it?

Tap on the event to open the event. Click the 'Edit' button in the event bubble, then press the 'Delete Event' button at the bottom of the Edit pop-up. It's a little different for events that come through Microsoft Exchange, you tap the event to bring up bubble and click the 'Details' button, and then press 'Decline' to remove the event.

Error while assigning Chart fo dep to Company code.

Hi,
I am getting an error "Inconsistency between FI company code PJP1 and chart of deprec. ZJCD" when i am trying to assign chart of depreciation to company code.
The details description is below:
Inconsistency between FI company code PJP1 and chart of deprec. ZJCD
Message no. AC481
Diagnosis
You tried to assign chart of depreciation ZJCD to company code PJP1. According to its Customizing definition, this company code manages parallel currencies.
The chart of depreciation does not contain a corresponding depreciation area for each of the currency types that are defined in the company code.
System Response
This assignment is not possible.
Procedure
1. Check the currency types of the company code.
2. Specify a corresponding depreciation area for each currency type.
Please let me know what should i do in this case.
Regards,
Dinesh Lakhotiya

Hi Paul,
It is already defined for my chart of depreciation.
However, i think i am missing one step: Define depreciation areas for foriegn currencies.
When i went into this step, i found that my company code is missing. No depreciation area currency is maintaine for my company code. There is no options of new entries also. If i want to maintain the same, how would i do that?
Awaiting response.

Error while creating asset master on a new company code

Hi there,
While trying to create a new asset master - Asset class XXX cannot be used in company code XXXX
    Message no. AA130
Diagnosis
    When you create an asset, the system determines the chart of
    depreciation from the company code definition. In order for a chart of
    depreciation to be available for an asset class during asset
    maintenance, the chart of depreciation has to be entered for that asset
    class (Determine class valuation). Chart of depreciation YYYY that was
    determined is not entered for asset class 123
System Response
    You cannot create any assets in your company code for this class.
Please revert if you have any details regarding this. I am sure I am getting this error because of a missing entry in v_ankbv. But i am not sure on what is the config step i m missing.
Thanks,

You need to configure the node 'Determine Depreciation Areas in the Asset Class' T Code-OAYZ.
Path : Financial Accounting (New) > Asset Accounting > Valuation > Determine Depreciation Areas in the Asset Class.
Assuming you have already done the other prior config steps involved like., Assign Chart of Depreciation to Company Code, Asset Classes etc.,
You can also refer to the Best Practices Configuration guide (Link Below) for further details:

Transaction type 100 not possible (posting to affiliated company)

Hi All SAP Guru's
I am trying to post asset acquisition through F-90
Asset Dr Transcation Type 100
To, Vendor Cr
while saving the above document i am getting an error Transcation type 100 is not possible (Posting to Affiliated Company)
to explain further my client are using Trading Partner Concept, may be that is the reason document is not getting posted
In Transcation Type I tried to change Post to affiliated Company then system allowing to post the document, but in real sense we should not give post to affiliated company at Transcation Type
can anybody help, is there any alternative to go ahead
Regards
Sreenivasulu
Edited by: sreenivasulu VAS on Feb 26, 2009 1:57 PM

Hi,
When there's a trading partner in the document, you need to use a different transaction type for external acquisition.
Have you tried this? (I've used this one. without chaging document type setting)
150 Acquisition from an affiliated company
Difference from Transaction type 100 is posting type. 150 has a posting type of 'Post to affiliated company' whereas 100 has not.
Check with IMG (T-code: AO73)

Transaction type ZGC not possible (posting to affiliated company) in ABSO

Hi all,
We have depreciation areas 01, 30, 31, 32 .
dep area 30, 31, 32 inherits the values from 01.
We want to post credit value to dep area 01 after doing the aqusition .
Hence we created a seperate transaction type ZGC ( in aqusitions- Tcode AO73) and limited it to dep areas 01, 30, 31, 32.
Transaction type ZGC is having credit and " do not post to affliated company " radio button is selected.
Now the issue is when we run ABSO to do a credit post in dep area 01 we are getting the below error .
Transaction type ZGC not possible (posting to affiliated company)
Message no. AA390
Diagnosis
For the current document, you specified either implicitly (via the customer/vendor), or explicitly (with a manual entry), that this posting is to an affiliated company. In this case, Asset Accounting requires you to use special transaction types. This enables the system to separately identify such transactions.
Procedure
Check the line items that you have already entered, and the transaction type you entered.
Not sure why it is asking for affliated company .
It will be great if any one help on this why we are getting this issue.

Hi Daya,
Please try to choose Trans.Type 100 in AO73 transaction code and select the radio button Post to affiliated company under Posting type.
Thanks,
Kumar

Error while deleting values of characteristic /1FB/COMPANY/Company (RFC des

Dear all,
I am trying to synchronize Company master data between local BCS system and SAP BW with UGMD_BATCH_SYNC program. In the synchronization mode, Full Synschronization (Write and Delete) was selected.
However, I receive the following error message when executing the program:
Error while deleting values of characteristic /1FB/COMPANY/Company (RFC destination )
Message no. UGMD077
Diagnosis
When writing or deleting values of characteristic /1FB/COMPANY/Company errors occurred in the system with RFC destination . As the changes have already been defined in the local storage location this results in the master data being asynchronous between the local and remote storage location.
System Response
Processing is continued.
Procedure
Carry out a manual synchronization of the master data later using report UGMD_BATCH_SYNC. You can find additional information there under Application Help.
FYI, RFC Destination for my data basis is left blank.
What may causes this error and how to resolve it?
Thank you.

Hi MontyBurns,
May I know what settings that I need to check in UGMDSYNC program? As far as I can tell, there is only one parameter that we need to specify in the program i.e. Field Name. As I am trying to synchronize from BCS to BW, I have chosen the followings settings:
Source = LOCAL
Target = ALLBW
All,
Interesting thing that I notice after executing the UGMDSYNC program is the following message:
Synchronize/Display Variances Between Systems
     The compound dependencies for the attributes or texts are not defined
     uniformly in the systems investigated.
     Example:
     Texts are defined as language-specific in the local systems and as
     language-independent in remote systems (for example BW systems). The
     same can apply for other compounds such as version or time dependencies.
System Response
     The display of differences between the systems will be affected. A
     manual synchronization will not be completely successful.
Procedure
     1. Ensure that the dependencies for the attributes and texts are the
         same in all systems.
     2. Start the synchronization process again.
Procedure for System Administration
I can check the attributes and texts in BW via RSD1 by specifying InfoObject = 0COMPANY and checking the Master data/texts and Attribute tabs. But how do I check similar settings in BCS Workbench? I can't determine whether the Company text is language-dependent or not simply by displaying specific Company from Process View > Master Data > Consolidation Units > Company.
Thanks.

Prevent creation of a PO to a non company code Vendor

Hi,
We have had a scenario where we have been ableo to create a purchase order to a vendor that doesnt exist in that company code. The purchase order will let you Goods receipt this also and will only cause a problem upon invoicing it.
Since a Purchase order is considered a legal document we believe we should be able to prevent PO being saved if the vendor used does not exist in the company code selected in the PO header data.
I can see why sap allows it as you put in the vendor before the company code is entered but can we prevent this being saved or a message coming up on the system when this combination is entered?
Thanks

Hi Tracey Sparry,
This can achieved as below.
An organizational unit in Logistics, subdividing an enterprise according to the requirements of Purchasing.
A purchasing organization procures materials and services, negotiates conditions of purchase with vendors, and is responsible for such transactions.
You specify the form of procurement by assigning purchasing organizations to company codes and plants.
Possible forms are:
Enterprise-wide: One purchasing organization procures for all the company codes of a client - that is, for all companies belonging to a corporate group
Company-specific: One purchasing organization procures for one company code
Plant-specific: One purchasing organization procures for one plant
In this way you can assig purchase orgnization to company code which is not necessary but in you case it is necessary so when you are creating vendor with purcahse org and company code it will establish link when you are creating purchase org and company code it will not not allow to proceed further it gives error that xxx vendor id not defined in company code and purchase org and stop further to save PO.
