Capacity planning integration with ERP based on activity types

Hello Friends,
Please help me in understanding the integration of capacity planning with activity types.
I have done the configuration but i am getting all the values double and giving the wrong roll up.
Please help me how this integration works and how to configure it so that i can get the actual efforts from the SAP ERP.
Regards,
Lohith

You can split operation and assign operation ticket to more than one Person (i.e. HR person number) even if they are not linked to one work center.
I don't have system in front of me, but I think it's in Operation details. You can also check individual capacity in table or graph. It was available in ECC 6.0
Hope this helps-

Valuation price with user Exit on activity types

Hi All,
Our customer could have different activity cost for different products even if they are processed on the same cost center, same activity type and same activity time. So I wonder whether SAP has valuation price with user Exit on activity types as what on material valuation, when we select "U" in the relevant valuation variant. Could anyone knows advise please?
Regards
Walter

Hi Walter,
an idea might be to include an ABC template into the costing. ABC tempaltes allow a big degree of freedom in determinin which processes to use and in which quantities. To use the product as a cost driver is certainly not an issue. I doubt that you can directly influence the process 'price' to be applied, but to change the quantity could bring the same result.
See the docu for more info:

Document Collaboration with In-Place Editing Activity Type

Hello,
My client needs to use the Document Collaboration with In-Place Editing Activity Type.
He currently uses the Microsoft Office 2000 but unfortunately this version triggers an error.
what are Microsoft Office versions that support this functionality?
Would you please proveide me an official list to give to him?
I could only find the following passage of the NPD pdf documentation:
"...Note that Office 2007 extensions are not supported with NPD
in-place editing...
Thanks and regards
Daniele Domenicucci

I would actually be curious to know what version most customers are using. 2000 is now 4 releases behind the current, and soon to be 5.
Although I think Office 2000 should technically work, it was also the first release with a built-in webDAV client, there might be some additional configuration to get it to work. maybe some digging on the microsoft support site regarding webdav and Office 2000. But, I also think it's a question of support b/w Office and WebDAV; not Office and PLM4P.
Instead, I would recommend using a newer release of Office to avoid this issue, altogether.

APO 7.03. Production Campaign - Integration with ERP

Hi,
I am using SAP ERP 6.0 and APO 7.03.
I created campaign in APO and try to find out if I can see in SAP ERP that some planned orders belong to a campaign.
Meaning: Can I see in SAP ERP that a planned order belongs to APO campaign? I do not see any campaign nr in the planned order itself nor in coois for planned orders.
Any hint?
Integration model for campaigns is active.
thanks for any useful hints!

Hi Wojtek,
1. Is is ok to assign the class types 023 and 300 in ECC to the same org area?
MK> Yes. The organizational area is the filter to transfer classes and characteristics. It should be applied to both classes and characteristics and should be unique for APO transfer.
2. Do I really need to assign class type 300 to the same organizational area P which has the calss type 400? or is just 400 enough?
MK> I don't think class 300 has any meaning in APO. I could be wrong. In APO you should have classes 230, 400 and sometimes 001 with the same organizational area used in ECC. The organizational area is not mandatory in APO for master data transfer but is used in integrated scenarios such as variant configuration or batch processing.
3. Do I need to consider something else?
MK> Create the organizational area and make the assignments to classes in both ECC and APO before you create integration models.

Mike

MDM Integration with ERP system

Hello MDM Guru's.
In our system Landscape, use Baan ERP system to fetch data into MDM, cleanse it and push data to SRM/BI system for Business Requirements.
Our MDM is neither connected to any R/3 (ECC) system. we want to have a kind of Reports developed for MDM Data present in our system based on Companies (our Manufacturing sites) and have a automatic mapping of our Manufacturers , Suppliers & Customers based on Global and local Stratergy.
According to my understanding, we can use MDM API's (ABAP or Java). As MDM is not integrated with any of the ERP (ECC or Netweaver Data base)?
We have options to integrate MDM with ECC 6.0 & Netweaver system. Which could be a better option to connect with? we are planning to integrate MDM with E-Portal too, could Portal data base be used.
Please guide me.
Thanks in advance
Cheers
MSR

Hi Srihari,
If you want to use MDM in you landscape and store and cleanse data in it and then sent the cleansed data to a reporting tool for analysis then you can do it in one of the methods:
- Either connect MDM to the other systems in your landscape using XI as the means of data trnasfer
- Or connect MDM to other systems using the API.
In the first method.you need to use PI/XI to manage the flow of master data to and from your MDM system to others. MDM can be used for data cleansing and enrichment within MDM before syndicating it out.
In the second method you can connect to MDM through other systems using the API.
As you mentioned about reporting on the master data in MDM based on the Companies or manufacturing sites etc.You can achieve this suing MDM ABAP API.
ABAP can be sued as a reporting tool.wherein it will connect to your MDM system through the configured API and fetch the MDM data and generate simple reports .
If you wish to access the MDM data online you can use portal front end. but in this case portal wont be capable to store any information as it is just a front end.
You will have to use MDM as a backend storage system.JAVA API can be used for futher customization on EP.
For ABAP API use you can refer the below link:

For Java API you can refer the below link:

Integration with ERP and other systems

We have integrated iP Oracle with OEX and we are now trying to
integrate with BBP/SAP, Maconomy Procurement systems. Has anyone
tried to integrate OEX with other systems?

We are now running a project to integrate OEX with SAP R/3 4.6c (MM Module). Oracle recommendation includes semiautomatic process associated to the RFQ in SAP and P.O. placement in SAP.
This semiautomatic process is consequence of poor XML integration with some transaction on OEX in which the buyer needs to operate in both systems: SAP and OEX. Nevertheless we are trying to request the incorporation of this changes in OEX's new version.
Its a matter of time that ORACLE will understand that a full integration is needed to satisfy users; SAP has done it and most of ERP transactions can be taken to XML format through their product Business Connector (Original a Webmethods product bought by SAP).

Territory Management - Looking for integration with ERP Cost Centers

We are exploring using Territory management in CRM 7.0. However, the hierarchy structure is really the same as our cost center structure in ERP. The Business does not want to have to maintain this information twice. Is there some way to update one from the other? Or is there any integration between the two?

Milan,
When we were first looking at automation/customization with Initiatives, the challenge was how different each project plan was. With all the different layouts and formats that different project leaders used in different areas of the same company, it make it impossible to come up with some way of standardizing how to get the data into Initiatives. If you were looking at bringing in the data to a table first, that would certainly solve that format issue.
Initiatives aren't populated with data from PAS, instead they are created manually in the system. There are pop-up boxes involved as well. I need to do some further research into how you could best do this.
This would be a customization.
Regards.

BC E-commerce integrated with Subscription Based Web Application

I am considering using BC for my company's corporate website as well as the online store. We sell a subscription based web application which will have 3 or more flavors (products) and will need to bill customers on a recurring monthly or annual basis.
For the monthly subscriptions, we want to bill the customer based on the "highwater" mark with regards to user quantity for that given month. This gives the users the flexibility to add/remove users freely without the fuss of having to contact a sales representative to adjust their account/recurring order.
I would imagine this would happen one of two ways:
The user signs up creating their account both in our web application and the ecommerce site and is billed for the first time. In the ensuing months, either: the e-commerce site communicates with our web application to get the high water mark quantity for that billing cycle or
Our web application sends a new order each month to the e-commerce site, including the highwater mark quantity, giving the illusion to the user that it is indeed a recurring order but behind the scenes they are actually individual orders.
Annual subscription customers are a bit more challenging. We still want the users to have the flexibility to add/remove users with minimal effort. However, since they are being billed on an annual basis, prorating additional users will be necessary. So if customer who previously purchased 5 licenses, adds 5 more licenses during month 6 of their annual subscription term, we would need the e-commerce solution to bill them once immediately for the 50% prorated 5 licenses, then bill them 6 month's later for the total 10 license subscription renewal.
At a bit of higher level, we would prefer the customer to manage all their billing/account info within our web application rather than going to an external store to do so.
One other caveat, we would prefer not to store credit card info on our site. Preferably that would be stored in our payment gateway (Auth.net). This may or may not affect the workflows described above.
My Questions:
Can the BC e-commerce solution support the workflows above?If so, is there any documentation/resources available to research this further?
Are there any BC customers that currently do something similar? If so, who and how similar?

Hi Greg,
From what you have described it seems to me that you need some complex server side logic which BC doesn't allow. In any case you'd have to develop an app that communicates between BC and that other application through our API, which will control the orders as per your requirement. In particular, there's no easy way for end user to control their recurring monthly or annual subscription, there's no way to apply immediate discounts according to earlier purchases that will satisfy this requirement "if customer who previously purchased 5 licenses, adds 5 more licenses during month 6 of their annual subscription term, we would need the e-commerce solution to bill them once immediately for the 50% prorated 5 licenses, then bill them 6 month's later for the total 10 license subscription renewal", you can't build in this functionality into BC " the e-commerce site communicates with our web application to get the high water mark quantity for that billing cycle" and there are few more things there which suggest to me that you need something custom.

ARIBA Integration with SAP (based in iDoc interchange) with deviating "remit-to" addresses for incoming vendor invoices

Hi,
We are currently trying to implement our ARIBA interface for incoming vendor invoices (purchase order based invoice verifiction) and facing currently some major challanges of a business requirements to interface alternative "payment remit to" addresses of vendor invoices. Our current setting consider the data exchange via iDocs into our SAP system, but unfortunately we are unable to process any deviating "remit to" address in the incoming document. As an ARIBA private ID we indicated the combination of "company code" with "vendor number". Can anybody advise how other companies resolved this challange? Thanks for your input, Jakob Kistler

Cisco WCS integration with SNMP based monitoring

I am looking for a solution to integrate Cisco WCS with any SNMP based monitoring solution. My requirement is below,
- Alerts for Access points up/down should be picked up by an alerting system in its console through SNMP.
- I dont want all access points to be monitored, but only a critical group.
Currently all access points are configured on LWAP mode under a wireless controller. Can i configure APs individually for SNMP and get it monitored through the 3rd party monitoring tool.
Can anyone please guide me to find a solution for this.

P.O.S system integrating with Sales Based rent

Hello Gurus
Is it possible to integrate sales based rent with a P.O.S ( Point of Sale) system from the client side, ie customer, if so how?
I very much await your response.
Much Regards
David

Hi,
Yes, the solution depends on communication protocol which you want to use.
Option1: SAP receives the data through IDOC from EPOS and pass these values to BAPI BAPI_RE_SALES_REP_REPORT
Option2: In case if you are using any middle-ware, middle-ware receives the data from EPOS and tell your middle-ware consultant to consume BAPI BAPI_RE_SALES_REP_REPORT in middle-ware. You can use .Net connector / Java connector in middle-ware to consume SAP BAPI's directly.

AAA integration with Microsoft NPS RADIUS Active Directory

Hello all....
We are looking to centralize administrative authentication to our switches and routers using AD domain groups. The oldest switches being 3560s. There are many great guides online on how to do this using MS NPS, but they all seems to require NPS to use of PAP and SPAP for authentication methods between the RADIUS clients (switches) and NPS- clear text protocols. Is this the only option to make this work? Of course the main concern would be the high level AD user account passwords being transmitted across the wire. Am I correct in thinking that AD passwords are indeed involved in the process, and NOT just the checking of the Shared Secret between the RADIUS clients and NPS.......and then the AD group membership? Also, what would be a secure alternative where AD passwords would not be sent in clear text. Any clarification would be great......
Thanks....Dennis

Hello Dennis-
The password would not be sent in clear text. Instead, it is encrypted by the NAD (In your case the switch) before it is forwarded to the Radius server. The "shared secret" is used in the encryption process which is why the secret is not send across the network. In addition, this is why the shared secret should be a complex one. For more info, check out the links below:

Impact on ERP integration with C4C using PI

Hi All,
We are about to install the add-on for C4C integration with ERP in ECC system. But before doing wanted to validate/confirm few things -
1. The add-on seems to support all new versions of ECC, does this include ECC on HANA ?
2. Is it necessary to backup the environment before installing the add-on ?
3. The component seems to be isolated from impacting any ECC functionality and its just for the purpose of integrating C4C with ECC. Would this mean that no regression testing is required in ECC ?
4. The component doesn't seems to have an uninstall option which would meant that any reverts could only be done through system backup only. Is this accurate ?
Appreciate your quick response.
Regards,
Pola

1. The add-on seems to support all new versions of ECC, does this include ECC on HANA ? --> The add-on supports all release of ECC above the base release mentioned in the Integration guide, including ECC on HANA
2. Is it necessary to backup the environment before installing the add-on ? --> The Add-On does not contain any DB tables. It should not interfere with the ECC environment, so you can install these without any disruption or downtime. As part of general hygiene, you may want to make sure that there is a recent enough backup for the ECC system.
3. The component seems to be isolated from impacting any ECC functionality and its just for the purpose of integrating C4C with ECC. Would this mean that no regression testing is required in ECC ?
No regression testing is required for ECC standard functionality. It will not affect existing distribution models. You will have to set up new ones for Cloud for Customer Integration scenarios.
4. The component doesn't seems to have an uninstall option which would meant that any reverts could only be done through system backup only. Is this accurate ? --> There is no uninstall option.
