Change Request Vs Change Order
Hi,
What is the difference between change request and change orders. When to use Change request and when to use Change order. Both allow impacts on work & financial plans
Thanks
Govind
Change requests are initiated to estimate possible changes to a project. Once approved, a change request can be converted into a change order.
Both can have independent approval work flow.
Also, you can combine multiple change requests into one change order.
For more details, see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E18727_01/doc.121/e13623/T185673T185681.htm
Hope this helps,

R12.1.3: Post/Request Comments for the Change Order/Change Request API
Hi Gurus,
R12.1.3 Release , Products : ENG / EGO
Basically Change management business events represent an activity or task that can be extended or customized.
From the user interface we can review and track the Action Log for any Change Management/Change Request , basically the workflow status , further user can manually post or request the comments for any ECO
Is there any PL/SQL Public API for posting and request comments for any Change Request , Change Order tracking .

How to look for SAP provided rules while changing orders ?
Hi:
we have a requirement to check for order type when the change order request ( in form of IDOC via EDI) is passed to SAP and the requirement is such that we can only accept certain order types like TA and reject order order type........from a very high level though process the idea is to check if SAP has certain pre build code that can be called before the va02 is called.....
I am new to sap and was told that we need to first look if SAP has a existing functionality if not then find user exit and customize it .....
my question is where does one look in SAP for such code ...or out of the box feature..........which can be called ....I understand if nothing is found we can write ABAP program to do this.....but I am puzzled as I do not now where to look and eliminate that such feature is not already provide ......
Thankscheck which FM you use to post your IDOC (like IDOC_INOUT_ORDCHG) and then check in this FM ... you'll find exits like 'call customer-function'.... I'm sure you'll find one which is called to validate data passed in your segment (where actual order type is passed).... or just use the one which works always after the order number is known and then just check your order type & raise error to fail IDOC so it will not even try to update your order.

I'm new to P3. I need to manage a large 2 year public
works building construction schedule in downtown Los
Angeles, with numerous and frequent changes to the
schedule due to change orders, RFI's etc. Of course, these
changes result in increases/decreases to cost and time,
which need to be monitored and dealt with as part of the
overall project. Some say that fragnets are the best way
to insert these changes into the schedule. Some say
fragnets are problematic. I have no experience with
fragnets and I want to get off on the right foot. What
have you project managers and project engineers found most
effective for inserting and managing change order and RFI
items?Nat:
Thank you very much for
your response.
Your
explanation of fragnets was very useful. I will make a
point of saving and reusing repetitive groups of
activities. In my case, SOMD (slab-on-metal-deck) is
very repetitive. Also, exterior building finishes such
as plaster (exterior sheathing, lath, scratch coat,
brown coat, cure, finish coat, cleanup). Interior
finishes activities are also often identical from
floor to floor.
The issue with
RFI's is usually not so critical. I mentioned 1200
RFI's but relatively few impact the schedule and must
be coded in. But it is more than 48. In my case, the
most common reason for entering an RFI into the
schedule is when the
consultant/Architect/Engineer/State Agency exceeds the
contractually agreed upon time limit for response to a
design-related RFI, or his response is irrelevant
requiring a second round of RFI's to resolve the
problem (revise and resubmit for title-block
exceptions, for example, happens frequently). <br
/>
It is easy to ignore these delays,
and recording them in the schedule can really irritate
the consultant, but when they become a habit, the
cumulative impact on the schedule can be significant.
Therefore, I need to be able to track these RFI delays
effectively within the schedule. Of course, an RFI
always has a number that is tracked inside Expedition
as well.
The bigger problem is
Change Orders. As you know, when the Owner wants
something added to the work, or a problem in the
design results in an increase in the scope of work
(there are many other possible reasons of course) a CO
is requested. As a general rule, most change orders
contain both a cost increase as well as a time
extension. This time extension is the problem,
because, especially on public works projects, the
Owner/CM does not want to grant time an extension, and
even when they do, they will only grant it when it
impacts the critical path, and only after there is no
float remaining (you will see why this distinction is
important as you read further). The critical path
condition makes sense, but the idea that my float is
the Owner's to eat for his CO work is grating,
especially when facing potential LD's. <br
/>
To top it off, some Owners/CMs insist
that all time delays be dealt with at the end of the
project, when the actual time delay resulting from a
CO can be calculated, instead of simply estimated, as
is common practice (corresponding language is inserted
into the CO to that effect instead of a defined time
extension). My position is that if they refuse to
grant a time extension based on an estimate, then the
cost given in the CO, which is nothing more than an
estimate, should also be replaced with T&M, and
the budget be damned. Needless to say, that position
has not won me many friends in the trailer across the
way.
You might suggest that we
should refuse the extra work if a time extension is
not granted up front. If we did that, they would hit
our bond in a heartbeat. A contractor's lot in life
seems to be to make lawyers (Deo volente, may the burn
in hell) wealthy.
In the case
of the Owner/CM refusing to grant time for
non-critical path CO's, my position is that, while the
CO work may not be on the critical path this instant,
in many cases, the critical path can change
dramatically, sucking CO work into it that was
previously separated from it by weeks. That very thing
has happened on a school project located in a major
city we are doing.
The project
has extensive tubular secondary steel at the exterior
of the two buildings. This tube steel, ranging in size
from 4" diameter to 20" diameter curves around, and up
and down, the exterior of the structure. I do not
exaggerate when I say that it is more complicated than
a roller coaster. I will send pictures if you are
interested. It supports curvilinear LG framing, which
in turn supports a combination of plaster, brick
veneer and metal panels. Very phantasmagorical stuff.
Being a complicated 3-D arrangement of rigid steel,
the architect's drawings were incomplete, (we should
have expected that) and changed frequently (4 times)
during fabrication, resulting in detailing problems
and a two month delay in erection. Lots of unforeseen,
fit-scribe-cut-repeat of long, heavy, curved, twisting
pieces of long steel hanging from crane hooks has been
required.
We have recovered
most of that time, but only by doing a great deal of
out-of-sequence work.
As you
can imagine, this mess generated a ton of CO's, but
the Owner would not agree to grant time extensions
until the end of the project, and even then, only on
CO's that are provably on the critical path. When
combined with electrical changes impacting utility
buildings, cable pulls, elevators, manlift and even
exterior finishes, and then with added off-site work,
topped off by submittal-review delays by State
agencies, the critical path has flapped around like a
flag in the wind, with CO's going in and out of it. In
many cases, this means that a particular item of
ongoing CO work has delayed the critical path for a
period of time, but not for the entire duration of the
CO work. So calculating the exact impact of the CO
during the period it was on the critical path has not
been easy.
I anticipate there
will be huge disagreement about these calculations at
the end of the project when we have the "come to
Jesus" time/money resolution meeting with the
Owner/CM.
BTW, the CM always
insists that CO's be dealt with as fragnets, but that
doesn't always make sense because the nature of CO
work is often one-of-a kind, not repetitive stuff. But
he has fragnets on the brain, it seems, so we call
them fragnets to humor him.
<br
/>Anyway, as you can imagine, tracking the dynamic
(vs. static) effect of CO's on the schedule has been
difficult. I am almost tempted to try calculus methods
to calculate time consumed over time (if you get my
meaning). Any experience analyzing schedules using
differential equations? Someone must have done it
before....
Right now I am
using activity codes to track them, but I am wondering
if there is a better way.
<br
/>
I have other projects, without the
same delays, but similar Owner/CM mindset regarding
CO's
Now you know the long
story. Any suggestions?

Requisition change order workflow - custom wf not being picked
Oracle Standard Requisition change order workflow doesnt meet the client requirement.
so we had to customize the poreqcha workflow.
Steps
1. Changed poreqcha.wft and complied using another name.
2. Associated the workflow in document types. ( Purchasing Super user>>setup>>purchasing>>document types)
Attached the new item-type to "Change Order Request Requisition"
3. Create a req approve it, auto create a PO and approve it. Now log in as requester and change the requisition
It still follows the standard workflow and not the custom workflow.
Please assist is there are any settings which i'm missing.See "How to Change the Top-Level Process for the POREQCHA - Requestor Change Order Approval? [ID 423078.1]" for Oracle's opinion on this. We have modified the top-level process directly. Neither solution is ideal.

Change Rule 3 (with Engineering change order with change type)
A customer created a recipe with Change Rule 3. Can you still change a recipe that has this setting? What needs to be done if a change has to be done on the recipe? Thanks!
Hi Kevin,
the change rule You described requires an engineering change order (ECO) with a change type for objects. Without ECR You can not change that recipe anymore.
1) You need to crate an engineering change request (ECR) with transaction CC31
2) In this ECR You need to create an entry in the "objects" section for "TL" with Your task list type, receipe group and with a change type
3) In header of ECR You need to change the status to "check ECR"
4) Go back to objects section, mark You object and choose function "Edit -> Object Status -> Change Possible"
5) Go back to header and change the status subsequently to "ECR checked", "approve ECR" and "convert ECR"
6) Save
7) Go to C202 or C223 and use this ECR number to change Your master data
Alternative B)
If Your customer enterd this recipe with change rule by accident and does not intend to user ECM functionallity just delete the recipe using TC C298.
Best Regards

We are using BI 7.0, release 701 and level 008. We are facing problem in WAD (web report output). When ever we do 'Select filter' for key figures and 'change the order' of key figures, it does not get reflected in new order. Though drag and drop of key figures is working.
Though same change order is working fine in Bex Analyser.
Kindly suggest some inputs.
Thanks.Hi,
On Which Service Pack are you on?WAD has this feature of re arranging the keyfigures in BI 7.0 for SPS 14...

Help with fuzzy search (doesn't work if change order of certain 2 letters)
Hi,
need some help with fuzzy search. It's pretty simple - we use fuzzy search on varchar2 columns that contain first name and last_name. The problem is that i don't really understand why it can't find name in some cases.
Say i want to search for 'Taekpaul'. Then
where CONTAINS(first_name,'fuzzy(TAEKPAUL)',1) > 0 - works
where CONTAINS(first_name,'fuzzy(TAEKPALU)',1) > 0 - works (changed order of the 2 last letters)
where CONTAINS(first_name,'fuzzy(TEAKPAUL)',1) > 0 - doesn't work, finds 'Tejpaul' that is completely unrelated (changed 2nd, 3rd order)
How can i make it find 'Taekpaul' even if i search for TEAKPAUL? Is it related to index? Like Text index should be created with some different parameters?
Thanks!
Edited by: Maitreya2 on Mar 3, 2010 2:08 PMThanks, adding '!' worked :)
Do you know where i can read more about '!' and other special characters? I think i didn't see anything like that here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/text.101/b10730/cqoper.htm#BABBJGFJ
I also started using JARO_WINKLER_SIMILARITY function that is actually better i think for what i do. But it's very buggy - sometimes Oracle crashes and kills connection when you try to use it.
Ahha, it's here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/text.102/b14218/cqspcl.htm
So, ! is soundex. Whatever it means..

How to change order data in APO
Hi,
I am keen to know on ways to change order data in APO say order category BI.....we want to change date by taking input from cif user exit APOCF006.We need this information for the ongoing project.
I know two options...1) using BAPIs 2) Not very sure about this option ...Function Module:/SAPAPO/OMORDER*CHANGE.
Could you please help to have better understanding on ways to change orders in APO?
Thank you
Best Regards
Nilesh PatilHello Rishi,
Thanks for your reply.
Demand node ofr purchase Ordre( BF) in SNP is Conrel( BI category). We want to change date( start date) at this demand node . We will get this date from R3 using say non cif method.
There are few ways to do it....
1) If we ignore Menas of Transport( so essentially transit time or lead time in tlane) in that purchase order and change this requirement date directly using purchase order save BAPI( requirement node) ......Question will system allow us to do so and even if it allows us to do so will it casue some problem( inconsistencies) later?
2) Second option I am thinking is...
For one product we maiantain GR processing time in product location master and this is considered while determining strat date of BI (Start date= Delivery date -GR procesisng time- means of Transport lead time - some other times ....). For this product let's say we have 100 Purchase Orders (BF). We have requirement that each of these POs should get separate treatment while calculating Start date. It means start date can be different for different POs and once we change it forcibly then it shoulkd not change unless we again change it forcibly.
We are thinking to change GR processing time at runtime wheneveer Purchase Order is changed. So if GR time in product location master is 1 day ....for different Purchase Orders different GR processing time can be considered. Say for Po1...its 2 day...for P2 its 4 day.
Or similar way we can change transit time as given in means of transport in tlanes.
Will appreciate your or anyone's comment
Thank you

Hi friends,
If i want to make some changes in existing purchase order before GR, i want to make it using a different change order number for the existing PO number so that i can review the history of changes being made.
Plz help out!
regardsHi,
You can use version management functionality , which will give you record of changes with Reason as well as Text . This functionality will be applicable once you take print out of PO and after that you are doing any changes to PO.
