Cfolders - PPM 5.0

Hi All,
Is cFolders part of PPM 5.0, I mean is there something like cFolders 5.0 coming..?.. if yes, what are the new features for cFolders in PPM 5.0?
Regards,
Aby

Hi,
cFolders is part of PPM 5.0 shipment but more or less the unchanged cFolders 4.5 is shipped with PPM 5.0
(besides bug fixes), i.e. no new features.
Kind regards,

  • CFOLDERS Report

    Hi Gurus,
    I am looking for report that will help me to view complete Folders created in CFOLDERS with reference to authroizations provided.
    I am completely new to CFolders, please let me know the tables / BAPI's that will help me to create the following report.
    Regards
    Naveen

    Hi Naveen,
    There is no standard report available to view all the collaborations created and its authorizations. It is difficult to provide such report since a single collaboration have multiple level folders under it & further the authroizations may vary folder to folder with multiple users.
    So this will go like a big permutation & combination..
    What are you looking for and what is the purpose of this report?
    For table/BAPI details of cFolders, you can refer the below blog to find out the details.

    Hi Lars,
    This issue may be related to java..
    Is your graphic view in PPM project is working fine?
    If no, then which java(64 bit or 32bit) is installed on your system?
    If you have installed 64bit java, then try with 32bit..it worked for me.

  • De-link PPM Item with SAP Project

    Hello,
    Can somebdoy throw a light on what to do in case I want to de-link a PPM-item with SAP project.This situation may rise if I want to change the project actuals going to bucket A to bucket B.As I can not change the relationship of an item with the bucket, I am looking for alternate solution where I can de-link SAP Project with SAP PPM item.
    thank you!
    Regards,
    Mahendra

    Hi Mahendra
    If you are meaning to de-link a PS Project from a PPM Item, you can from the Item navigate to the 'Relationships' tab and then on the 'object links'sub-tab select and delete the assignment:
    You can also remove a cProject relationship by clicking the 'Related Objects' sub-tab
    Your comment that you cannot move an Item to a new Bucket - is this because your business process does not allow you to do so? Because this is definitely possible in the system.
    Let me know if you have any further questions as I am not sure I have addressed your question

  • How to change URL/link in cFolders email notification

    Hi Folks,
    We are on cFolders 4.5 accessed via Enterprise Portal. When a notification is generated (either manually or via a status transition), the email contains a URL link related to the cfolder object the notification pertains to. This URL points to the cFolders BSP application. How do we point this to the portal? We want all user to access cFolders via the portal and not BSP. Any way to achieve this?
    Thanks,

    Hello Lashan,
    could you please tell me the note number?
    Here we also would like to implement the same.

  • CFolders in SRM 7.0

    Hello experts,
    I need to decrypt a document, which is in a folder in CFolders, through an external application, when I clicked on the link for your viewing. I search for a moment in the code to do this, but did not find an EXIT for this purpose.
    I find the BADI CFX_BUTTONS, but this only works for the moment of opening the folder and not for the moment we try to open the document.
    Is there any point where we can insert code to make that external application call?
    Best regards
    Ricardo Marques

    Hi,
    C folders (SAP PLM) is a part of SRM 7.0 Business Suite.. It is not an ADD on
    You  have to do some configuration in the SRM 7.0 to link the C folders for
    sharing the files from the company and the vendor for Bidding purposes

  • Set up activities in PPM

    Hi all
    I have th e following recipe:
    operation 10
    phase 20: set up phase
    phase 30: prod phase
    When transferring to apo the production version, it is created in APO the PPM.
    Everything is ok, but when I enter to modifiy something in the PPM and try to activate it, I get the error message in APO:
    operation 20 only contains set up activity.
    And I can't activate the PPM.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    We also faced a similar issue, but with PDS. The cause is you can not have only setup operation in your routing, becuase as per the new logic developed by SAP in APO after SCM 4.1, the setup should be followed by a produce activity. They call it as processor based logic. Whatever I had read and understood, while rescheduling it takes the produce activitiy as the reference and tries to schedule the setup activity.
    In our scenario, we also had 2 operations, one with only setup and other with only produce. The way we created a workaround is on the Work Center. I beleive you also must have assigned different resource to each phase (20 & 30) in your routing. What we did is we add processing time formula in the scheduling tab of the resource which has only setup activity. And we ensured that this processing time formula is a constant for 1 second in order not to disturb the scheduling.
    I'm not sure whether it works for you. But let me know if you got anyother solution on this issue.
    Thanks,

  • How can I send multiple subcon PPMs to APO since one PV must be in the PIR?

    We often have two or three production versions for a single subcontracting material. For example, PV 01-1 from now until June, then PV 02-1 from June until November. To create the PPM in APO via CFM1/CFM2 we must have one PV in the subcontracing PIR. This means we can only send the currently active PV 01-1 to APO and we can not plan with 02-1 in the future! I know I can manually create this in APO or I can temporarily change the PIR, send the PPM, and then change the PIR back but I would like an automatic process for this.
    Why can't I leave the PV blank in the PIR and that would mean to send ALL PPMs? This is essentially how R/3 planning works... if you leave the PV blank in the PIR it will automatically choose the PV with the correct date ranges.
    I'm sure many people have had this issue but SAP offers no solution. Does anyone know of a user exit or have any ideas on how to resolve this?
    Thanks,
    Eric Strehlow

    Hi Vinodkumar,
    You have desribed the way that I run my process. However, for subcontracting we must also put the PV into the PIR or the PPM creation will have no link from PV to Vendor and therefore it will not create a PPM.
    In R/3 planning, we leave the PV blank in the PIR so the system will automatically choose the correct PV based on the validity dates. I would like to leave the PV blank in the PIR and have APO create PPMs for all Vendors that this material is extended to for each PV. But as far as I know this is not possible. Then APO planning can choose the correct PPM based on validity dates.
    Thanks,
    Eric

  • How can we change the field confirmed work of SAP PPM from edit to not edit mode ? I need it into non edit mode for time recording with ChaRM

    Hello everyone,
    Do someone meet this issue ? Do you know if it has a link with customization of ppm or customization of ITSM ?
    Many thanks in advance for your replies !

    It seems that I've solved this issue. To get it work:
    1. Select checkbox Time Recording and Travel Expenses via CATS for project type. Path: SPRO —> SAP Customizing Implementation Guide —> SAP Portfolio and Project Management —> Project Management —> Structure => Define Project Types
    2. Run/schedule a synchronization with the report DPR_CATS_CPR_TRANSF (Transfer of CATS Itemizations to Project Management Application).

  • Unknown exception while creating Item: PPM 5.0 (SP11) + NW 7.41 SP03 + ECC 6.0 EHP7

    Hi we recently upgraded from PPM 5.0 SP 9 to SP11.
    Along with that we did below updates as well.
    NW 7.02 SP10 --> NW 7.41 SP03
    ECC 6.0 EHP5 --> ECC 6.0 EHP7
    During creation of Item we are getting below error
    Exception occurred in the update of the application object
    Some points I have checked already:
    1. New configuring: the complete new set of configuration right from New Portfolio type to item type and related master data.
    2. Authorization: I have ACO_SUPER and also ACL access ADMIN and Write at Portfolio and Top bucket, which shows as Inherited. tried adding Create manually at lowest bucket.
    3. Old Portfolio's (before upgrade): face same issue for new create however the old ones I can update and save works fine.
    4. Basis: There is no Trace we could find relevant, No ST22 dump.
    5. Trace: show CuaOwnLuwErrorReset which Im not sure nor is our Basis guy.
    6. Market place: Tried searching service market place for CuaOwnLuwErrorReset, No use, tried with spaces too.
    7. Basis: Tried verification of Database tables
    8. Old Items > Financial Planning shows dump at CX_RPM_DB_UPDATE, developers are checking it out.
    9. Developments: No BAdI is called during save.
    Any pointers highly appreciated
    Rgds,
    Niranjan

    Ravi,
    Thanks for the pointers. But from configuration perspective its all good I believe.
    Answers in bold
    1) Is this issue persisted before upgrade also?
        NO. Earlier it was working fine.
    2) Have you enabled automatic project creation in the item type?
         a) If yes, then can you check with an item creation where automatic project creation in not enabled.
              Already tried creation of Item only. Same error. With Check box or without. With template or without.
         b) If issue persists only with automatic project creation,then are you trying to create PPM project or PS project?
              PS is not in picture now, as its linked to release strategy of cProjects (PPM project)
         c) If PS project, can you check for the object links RFC connections?
              The cProjects (PPM project) and PS RFCs are fine. We are on same server so its all good. NONE is what is verified in SM59 already

  • Secondary Resource in the operation "SETUP" of a PPM

    Hi experts,
    I need to record directly in APO (SCC03) a PPDS PPM with a secondary resource which should be considered in the setup activity
    I recorded the following:
    Operation          Activity          Activity Type          Mode           Resource
    0010                    0010                    S                         1          WLINE_1
    0010                    0010                    S                         1          SECONDARY_RESOURCE
    0020                    0010                    P                         1          WLINE_1
    In the activity 0010 (operation 0010) I placed a flag in the field "setup activity"
    When I tried to actívate the PPM,  the system sent me the message:
         OPERATION 0010 ONLY CONTAINS A SETUP ACTIVITY
    How I can to solve this issue?
    How I can include a Secondary Resource in the setup operation of the PPM?
    Regards, 

    How are you logging into the system? Are you using the Fingerprint to login or the password in Client Security Solution (CSS)? Remember that Client Security Solution controls your settings for the Password Manager (Security settings for Fingerprint reader data are controlled by CSS also)
    You can go to Start -> All Programs -> ThinkVantage (or Lenovo Care) -> Client Security Solution
    If you have CSS version 8, you should see a Menu Bar at the top.. You can click on Advanced , then Reset - this will allow you to clear all password data from the Password Manager.
    In addition to the "Reset" option, you also have the ability to "Manage" your settings. Use this to make changes to way you log into Windows at boot. You should have 5 options listed under "Manage". This also allows you to decide whether or not to use the Fingerprint when signing on.
    If you are trying to clear you fingerprint data, that can be done from BIOS
    F1 -> Security -> Fingerprint -> Erase Internal Fingerprint Data -> "Yes" to confirm.
    You should also take the time to read this Guide on Fingerprint Reader Tips below:
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-59650
    Also read over "Client Security Solution 8.0- Considerations"
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-66965
    I hope this will provide some help.

  • Problem While deleting a  PP/DS PPM

    Hi,
    I am trying to delete SNP PPMs and PP/DS PPMS, the  problem is only with PP/DS PPMS is it is showing up an error saying " Plan cannot be deleted since there are orders referencing it "
    I went into RLCDEL transaction and deleted all orders from AA to ZZ and even checked in the Product View but there were no Planned orders or Production orders, Even after checking with the orders individually the error message is still persistent.
    Please Suggest.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    My

    Hi
    There are a few ways to view orders in the system.
    You could use the "Where Used List" transaction code WUF and then select the object type you are interested in, eg PPM or Product. This will then list all the related data items that use that object, eg all the orders etc.
    The transaction /sapapo/cdps_rept will allow you to list orders by resource/location etc.
    You can also display livecache contents through transaction /sapapo/om16, using the "Orders" tab would allow you to select by location for example.
    Alternatively, you could use the tables /sapapo/ordmap and /sapapo/ordkey to find orders, however you need to relate the two via the GUID's to make full sense of the data!
    Hope that helps
    Regards

  • Restrict the creation of documents in the cfolders after the Bid End Date

    Hi All,
    The System allows the bidders to create documents in cfolders even after the Bid Submission deadline has reached, whereas the Quotation would not be submitted as the Bid Submission date is in the past. Is there any way to restrict the creation of documents in the cfolders after the Bid Submission End Date?
    Waiting for your reply,
    Mary

    Hi Mary,
    In the competitive scenario in the first screen itself there are fields for "Due date" and "Due time". Once these entries are maintained, that particular collaboration will get freezed then and no documents or bids can be submitted post that time.
    I hope this will solve your query.
