Changes information required in resource planning

Hi all,
I am looking a solution to capture change information in resource planning, example i have planned resource and time in activity person assignment tab but later on i changed resource and planned hour in activity person assignment tab so how can i get changed information for the same.
I tried at my level best but not yet found any resolution looking for any expert advice.
Thanks,
Vishal Kr. Sharma

Hi Mehdi ,
You can check out the VPD concept provided by Oracle in which you can apply the security on the required schema/table only and it thus meet your requirement of providing security option to one schema and not to the other of same database.

1. Configuration steps for DRP
2. Transactions to complete business scenario.
3. Prerequisites to implement SAP DRP.
Thanks in Advance

Dear
Distribution Resource Planning
Distribution resource planning provides a framework for determining the need to replenish
inventory by:
Linking market requirements with manufacturing and demand management
Relating current inventory positions and demand forecasts to production scheduling
Matching material supply to manufacturing demand, and customer demand to product
supply
Process Flow
1. You define all nodes in the network including plants, distribution centers (DCs),
warehouses, and stock transfer points using the Distribution Network tool.
2. You set up the material master record for each node. In MRP 4 of the material master
record, you must define the deployment strategy for each material (the fair and push
distribution options) as well as deployment horizon (push horizon). For the push horizon,
enter the number of days for which the system considers the ATD quantity and any
additional quantity produced. Any quantity produced beyond the push horizon is not
considered in the deployment calculation.
3. To calculate an available to deploy (ATD) quantity, use the availability check rule, DE, in
Customizing, u2018Carry out control for availability check.u2019 The availability check and the
deployment checking rule, determine the MRP elements that are used to calculate the
ATD quantity.
4. You create a forecast for each DC; for example, a sales forecast.
5. You transfer the forecasted data to Demand Management. The system creates
independent requirements.
6. You perform a DRP run in each DC and in each supplying plant. The DRP run considers
the quota arrangements defined in the network, available stock, sales orders, and
independent requirements.
The DRP run in the DCs creates releases for stock transport requisitions in the
supplying plants.
The DRP run in the supplying plants creates planned orders for production.
7. You convert planned orders into production orders for manufacturing.
You run deployment to produce stock transport orders for distribution of stock from the supplying
plants to the DCs.
Distribution Requirement Planning :
Generates stock transport requisitions between locations.
Accounts for time-dependent safety stocks when the replenishment stock is calculated.
Initiates planning runs in a net change procedure or in a regenerative planning mode
Deployment
When demand is greater than supply, deployment calculates a fair share quantity based on the available-to-deploy (ATD) quantity and requirements in the distribution centers to be supplied.
When supply is greater than demand, deployment calculates distribution of stock using pull or push logic within the distribution network according to planned requirements.
Generates stock transport orders from suggested orders in the DRP plan.
Prioritizes quantities supplied based on requirements types (customer order, forecast, and safety stock).
Multi-Sourcing Using Quota Arrangements
Lets multiple plants supply a percentage of the material required by a single location, which makes it possible to prioritize the deliveries made by plants and to specify maximum delivery quantities for particular time periods.
Represents simple capacity constraints, and combines the percentage-based and maximum quantity approaches.
Lets you establish minimum, maximum, and rounding profiles for lot sizing within the network.
Lets you change the distribution network at future dates.
Lets you offset delivery times for specific items from the sourcing location to the replenishment location.
Single-Sourcing Using Special Procurement Keys
Hope this above details will be useful for your requirement .

Distribution requirements planning and distribution resource planning

Hi,
In PP, is there any difference between the distribution requirements planning and distribution resource planning?
The glossary shows that they are different.
I am trying to understand the SNP DRP. Which one of the above correspond to this SNP DRP?
If there is anything like PP-distribution requirements planning, can some one please refer me any documentation.
Thank you.

Hi Kedar ,
Pls go through

Distribution Resource Planning is fully related to Deployment ,whereas Requirement Planning includes deployment plus requirement run in net change or regenerative .

Distribution Resource planning

What is Distribution Resource planning ? Please explain me with few examples?
thanks in advance
PSS

Hi there,
Purpose
Distribution resource planning provides a framework for determining the need to replenish
inventory by:
Linking market requirements with manufacturing and demand management
Relating current inventory positions and demand forecasts to production scheduling
Matching material supply to manufacturing demand, and customer demand to product
supply
Process Flow
1. You define all nodes in the networkincluding plants, distribution centers (DCs),
warehouses, and stock transfer pointsusing the Distribution Network tool. See
2. You set up the material master record for each node. In MRP 4 of the material
master record, you must define the deployment strategy for each material (the fair and
push distribution options) as well as deployment horizon (push horizon). For the push
horizon, enter the number of days for which the system considers the ATD quantity and
any additional quantity produced. Any quantity produced beyond the push horizon is not
considered in the deployment calculation.
3. To calculate an available to deploy (ATD) quantity, use the availability check rule,
DE, in Customizing, Carry out control for availability check. The availability check and
the deployment checking rule, determine the MRP elements that are used to calculate
the ATD quantity.
4. You create a forecast for each DC; for example, a sales forecast.
5. You transfer the forecasted data to Demand Management. The system creates
independent requirements.
6. You perform a DRP run in each DC and in each supplying plant. The DRP run
considers the quota arrangements defined in the network, available stock, sales orders,
and independent requirements.
The DRP run in the DCs creates releases for stock transport requisitions in the
supplying plants.
The DRP run in the supplying plants creates planned orders for production.
7. You convert planned orders into production orders for manufacturing.
You run deployment to produce stock transport orders for distribution of stock from the supplying
plants to the DCs.
Running DRP
Purpose
In DRP, during the net requirements calculation, the system compares available stock and the
scheduled receipts from the supply source with planned independent requirements and incoming
sales orders. If there is a material shortage (available stock is less than the quantity required),
the system creates an order proposal.
The system calculates the quantity recorded in the order proposal (in the form of a requisition)
based on the lot-sizing procedure you specify in MRP 1 of the material master record.
The system also schedules the order proposal. Delivery and release dates are determined from
the transport time and time associated with goods receipt processing.
The system can process DRP for the whole supply chainincluding the production plants. DRP
includes production and purchasing into the planning process for the production plant.
Prerequisites
In order to perform a DRP run, you must:
Set up a distribution network, including identification of quota arrangements and lead
times.
Define MRP parameters in the material master record for all the materials in the
distribution network.
Process Flow
1. You schedule the DRP runs for your network in the same way you would schedule an
MRP run.
2. You perform the DRP run:
A DRP run on one material is the same as single-item, single-level planning in the MRP
run. Because the deployment plan involves finished goods, there is only single-material,
single-level planning of individual materials without explosion to lower levels.
A DRP run on one plant is the same as total planning in the MRP run. Single-plant
planning involves planning all the materials in a certain location that are relevant for
requirements planning.
A DRP run using mass processing allows you to process several locations at once so
that the whole supply chain is planned.
3. You use net change planning to plan only materials that change relevant to distribution
requirements planning since the last planning run (for example, change in a sales order
quantity or date). Net change planning improves system performance for large, complex
distribution networks with many materials. If a material is changed in a way that is
relevant to the planning run, it is given a net change indicator, and included in the next
planning run.
Performance can be improved even further by using the change planning within the
planning horizon. Only changes relevant to requirements planning that fall within the
user-defined planing horizon are included in the planning run. To keep the planning
results up to date, perform a total planning run regularly (weekly or monthly).
for planning. Regenerative planning is performed in the implementation stages.
4. If you are using mass processing, determine the sequence in which the series of DRP
runs must be executed.
Result
The information resulting from the DRP runs includes purchase requisitions and scheduling
agreements. Use these to plan how to supply the distribution centers in your network. The DRP
run in the DCs creates releases for stock transport requisitions in the supplying plants. A DRP
run on the supplying plants creates planned orders for production.

Double prompts for Exchange 2013 migrated users: "The microsoft exchange administrator has made a change that requires you to restart outlook"

I have Exchange 2010 SP3 in my environment and am migrating to Exchange 2013. Whenever a mailbox is migrated, the Outlook 2013 client will prompt the user with a "the exchange administrator has made a change that requires you to restart
Outlook". When the user does so, he or she is prompted again. After he or she closes and reopens Outlook for the second time, the issue is gone permanently.
I've seen a number of other posts about repeated prompts like this but I haven't yet found one or someone gets exactly 2 prompts for each client and no more.
A couple of pieces of information that may be relevant:
1. On exchange 2013, the authentication method for the internal host name is NTLM
2. I have not yet migrated public folders from Exchange 2010. I plan to do that after the mailbox migration is complete.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
From your description, after mailboxes are moved from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013, users receive the following prompt when opening Outlook.
The Microsoft Exchange Administrator has made a change that requires you quit and restart Outlook.
In order to solve this issue, you need to apply the Outlook update that is described in KB 2863911.
For your reference:
Outlook 2013 cannot connect after an Exchange Server 2010 mailbox is moved to Exchange Server 2013

Project Online Resource Plan issues_Many

I am trying to setup a client that only wants to use Project Server for portfolio planning and analysis. In this scenario they only want to assign generic resources (remember, no detail plans...only high level), and want to use the resource plan. Sounds
simple, but I am finding a lot of issues with this scenario, primarily with resources plan.
1. The resource plan seems to be checked out with no way to check it in other than through the force check-in. On occasion it seems to get checked in but I can't figure out the steps. I've tried with and without editing and publishing the
project itself with no avail. Sometimes the Publish option is still available (but I assume it wouldn't be if someone else checked it out) but sometimes it is greyed out.
2. I can't assign capacity to a generic resource and use it in Portfolio Analysis. This seems to be a feature that in my opinion was poorly conceived, but I'll leave out the details of this rant.
3. and biggest issue which is definitely a bug and show-stopper. Changing the date rage of an existing resource plan doesn't change the resource demand for a date range that was cut from the original. I can back the start date or extend the end date,
but cannot move the start date or end date in. What happens is that the grid changes just fine but the resource date range along with the demand for that time no longer in play still show up as project demand.
I added this to the Project Online forum but all of this behavior is the same with Project Server 2013. Nothing I could see in the forums. Is this a new bug or can there maybe be a fix on the way? Any comment or update would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks...

Firstly, all of your people and machines need to b entered in the Enterprise Resource Pool. For each of the machines you list, enter a Max. Units value that represents 100% multiplied by the number of machines you have. For example, if you have
three road graders, you would enter 300% in the Max. Units column for a Road Grader resource.
Next, you will need to build enterprise projects, add the required people and machines as team members in the project, assign the resources to each task as needed, and then save and publish each enterprise project.
To see how the workload is distributed for your resources, navigate to the Resource Center page and select the resources whose assignments and availability you want to study. At the right end of the Resources ribbon, click the Resource Availability
button. On the Resource Availability, select the time range you want to use and you can then see the availability of your selected resources. You can also click the Resource Assignments button to study how the resources are being used on tasks
across all projects in Project Server.
Hope this helps.

Does the LG Dare require a data plan?

I have an LG Dare that I would like to use on an existing plan. BUT I dont want to pay for data, so I was wondering since Verizon has changed so much with their plans, does the LG Dare require a data plan in order to use it on my plan? All I use the phone for is calls and unlimited texting, no internet. Why pay for something I will never use?
~ Note: My current phone is the LG EnV 2 (no data required on it)...which died completely on me. Hence why Im wanting to switch to my old phone LG Dare.~
Thanks!

@turtlegurl86,
We appreciate you bringing this to the attention of the forum. It is fantastic to see of your proactive nature.
The LG Dare does not require a data package. If you would like to add a data package. The current data option for the device is $10 / 75 MB.
I'm sure you will find this information beneficial. It was a great to hear from you.

Problem launching Resource planning tool

Hi all,
       I have some problem in launching the resouce planning tool,T-Code:CRM_DWP.
We have a freshly installed CRM 5.0 sytem,It is throwing me the following errors:
<b>1)Internal error in Business Object Layer, method: GET_TIMESPEC_TYPES</b>
<b>2)Serious internal error occurred that cannot be described in more detail</b>
Are there any pre requisite settings that are required before launching this tool?
please provide directions to solve this.
Thanks in advance,
Sethu.

Hi Vick,
If you want to use service resource planning tool, you basically have to
decide the following:
1.   Whether you want to use SAP's Scheduling Engine (WFM Core), or an
       external scheduling engine.
2.   Whether or not you want to work with SAP R/3 HR integration. HR
       integration in this context means that employee data from the SAP
       R/3 HR component is transferred to SAP CRM using ALE. The
       availability information is transferred either to the WFM Core, or
       to the external scheduling engine.
You can not use resource planning tool without WFM Core, which is the scheduling engine for RPT
The scheduling engine can be any thing SAP's WFM core or External Sceduling engine(Non-SAP).
Let us assume that you are going with WFM Core. Again WFM core can be used in two ways.
1. If you want to use the WFM Core in an APO system, you have to set up a RFC   connection to the WFM Core
2. If you want to use the WFM Core in a SAP CRM add-on, you have to leave the relevant field empty in 'Select RFC Connection'. (This Customizing setting i have already mentioned in my last posting)
Once you have decided whether you want to use WFM core either with APO system or as a CRM add-on then you need to decide on R/3 HR Integration.
1. Without SAP R/3 HR Integration
If you do not use HR integration, use the 'CRM_LRP_FILL_RES' report to
transfer the service employees, which are stored in the system in the
role 'Employee', from SAP CRM to the WFM Core.
2. With SAP R/3 HR Integration
If you do use HR integration, employee data and availability information
is transferred from the HR system to the WFM Core using the 'RPTWFMIF'
report.
So finally after setting up all these things related WFM core you can run your resource planning tool. There is no RPT without WFM core.
Before doing all these you ned to install Software component 'WFMCORE' with version 2.0 which comes along with CRM installation DVD.
Still if you have any doubt please reply to this post.
Please reward points if it helps.

Question about distribution resource planning in pp module

hi, my all respected sir,i want to ask question as below
1) what do you mean by distribution resource plannning and what are steps occour in this planning?
2) what is the difference between drp and mrp?
    thank you , all of you
ok by

Hi,
Distribution Resource Planning (DRP) is a method used in business administration for planning orders within a supply chain. DRP enables the user to set certain inventory control parameters (like a safety stock) and calculate the time-phased inventory requirements.
DRP uses several variables:
     the on-hand inventory at the end of a period.
     the backordered demand at the end of a period.
     the required quantity of product needed at the beginning of a period.
     the constrained quantity of product available at the beginning of a period.
     the recommended order quantity at the beginning of a period.
         DRP needs the following information:
     the demand in a future period.
     the scheduled receipts at the beginning of a period.
     the safety stock requirement for a period.
     the on-hand inventory at the beginning of a period.

Material Requirements Planning (MRP) is a software based production planning and inventory control system used to manage manufacturing processes. Although it is not common nowadays, it is possible to conduct MRP by hand as well.
An MRP system is intended to simultaneously meet three objectives:
     Ensure materials and products are available for production and delivery to customers.
     Maintain the lowest possible level of inventory.
     Plan manufacturing activities, delivery schedules and purchasing activities.

Resource planning in cprojects with xRPM or MRS?

Dear Experts,
To my understanding there are four options to perform resource planning in combination with cprojects:
1.     Do a planning in cprojects only
2.     Use resource planning application (RPA) from SAP CRM
3.     Schedule resources with xRPM
4.     Schedule resources with SAP MRS (Multi Resource Scheduling)
I have a couple of questions:
(a) Is it correct that I cannot assign resources to project roles in xRPM based on qualification matching? Is it right that xRPM is used rather for a long-term view to define the available capacity of projects/roles than assigning specific resources to roles?
(b) How can help SAP MRS in comparison to option 1 (planning in cprojects)? I assume that I can do also in cprojects itself a qualification matching. MRS provides a more detailed qualification object to cover complex requirements, right? What else provides MRS what cannot be managed in cprojects itself?
(c ) If we want to use a staffing process were project lead and resource manager doing the staffing and have the option to suggest or reject roles, we have the option to use xRPM or MRS, right? What are the differences? In MRS we have options like using several resource managers, softbooking/hardbooking or itu2019s possible to define the workflow who proposes resources and who is doing the final staffing (project lead or staffing manager), reasons for rejections can be configured etc. Are these options in xRPM available as well?
Thanks,
Angie

Hi Angie,
I have not implemented MRS or RPA so can only answer your first question. You cannot do a resource search via qualification in Portfolio Management (aka xRPM), typically you would do this in Project Management (aka cProjects) and this functionality works fine provided you have maintained qualification data for BP's and roles. Portfolio Management financial planning function can be used for a long term view as you have mentioned. However, it is also typically used to summarize and/or roll up resource demand / assignment to a bucket or portfolio level or summarize resources for multiple projects via initiatives or collections. You can also use a top down approach and at a high level plan values at the bucket level (i.e. forecasted demand or business case demand) and compare against detailed planned / assigned demand rolled up from project management.
Hope this helps.

Lashan

"You will not be able to publish your resource plan..."

Hi all,
Project Server 2010 with SP1 and Feb '12 CU.
We've started experimenting with resource planning and have found a situation for which I have no explanation. For some projects, the resource plan functions work just fine. But we have a few where the Publish option in the ribbon of the resource
plan is greyed-out and a message stating "Your will not be able to publish your resource plan until you publish the corresponding project schedule". I've found that by following the instructions and publishing the project in PWA works - the publish capability
for the resource plan is no longer greyed-out.
HOWEVER, I don't know what's causing this situation in the first place. New projects can be created and they don't seem to produce the greyed-out publish option. Most existing projects won't behave this way either - but some do. It doesn't
appear to be a permissions issue since when the publish button is greyed-out it remains that way for project managers and admin alike. Also, publishing the project from Project Professional doesn't work either, only publishing from PWA will do the trick.
Any advice about how to avoid getting the greyed-out publish button for resource plans would be most appreciated.

Thanks Michael!
As it turns out, this isn't quite the answer but you've definitely helped in figuring this out. Based on some additional experimentation (triggered by your line of thinking!), it seems that a change to the project's task and/or resources will disable
the publish capability for that project's resource plan - unti the project is published again in PWA. So if you add a task, or resource, or change an assignment that will trigger this greyed-out behavior for the publish button in the ribbon of the resource
plan.
Also, I've found that publishing in project professional has no impact. The only way to re-enable the publish capability for the resource plan is to publish the project in PWA. Of course, the message that accompanies the greyed-out publish button
states this explicitly but people like me (who lack a keen sense for the obvious) sometimes miss these subtleties.
Thanks again for your response - quite helpful.

Project change with the change in requirements

Dear All
My client has the following requirements:
When the requirements from the customer change, changes to time, resources and budget have to be managed.
What iam thinking is as soon as the requirements change, a ECR is created for the change in requirements document, which on release will notify the concerned person/PM to analyze the impact on the project.
Please suggest me if there is any other way to map this scenario in PS or cProjects?
Thanks & Regards

DBMS Resource plan in 11.1

Hello,
I am using 11.1.0.7.0 2-node RAC on RHEL 5 (64 bit). I have enabled MIXED_WORKLOAD_PLAN in both the instances, with a modification to the threshold parameter for interactive group.
I set the action to 'cancel the SQL' for the interactive group if the execution time exceeds 90 seconds. This is working perfect.
My question is - Is there a way to capture the SQL ID that got cancelled along with session ID which was affected by the same? Does this information gets logged anywhere? Please can you help me on this?
Regards,
SK

I cannot help with the exact answer of your question, but I can give you a broader solution that might be of help.
We know that all SQLs that were canceled by the resource plan ran for more than 80 seconds, but less than 100 seconds. We can find all SQLs that run between 80 and 100 seconds and try to figure out which ones were terminated by the resource plan. We can use the resource plan definition, application logs and other application dependant sources to do the filtering. This method is not exact and could be quite labor intensive.
Assuming you are licensed to use ASH, you can use this queries to get all sessions that ran between 75 and 105 seconds:
During the recent past (minutes):
select session_id , session_serial# , sql_id , min_tm , max( exec_time) , count(*)
FROM
( select session_id , session_serial# , sql_id , min_tm , ( max_tm - min_tm ) exec_time
FROM
select session_id , session_serial# , sql_id , sample_time ,
max(sample_time) over (partition by session_id , session_serial# , sql_id ) max_tm,
min(sample_time) over (partition by session_id , session_serial# , sql_id ) min_tm
from v$active_session_history
where sample_time between <begin time > and <end time >
and sql_id is not null) )
where exec_time > interval '75' SECOND
and exec_time < interval '105' SECOND group by session_id, session_serial#, sql_id, min_tm
having count(*) > 70Historically – depending on your ASH settings:
select session_id , session_serial# , sql_id , min_tm , max( exec_time) , count(*)
FROM
( select session_id , session_serial# , sql_id , min_tm , ( max_tm - min_tm ) exec_time
FROM
select session_id , session_serial# , sql_id , sample_time ,
max(sample_time) over (partition by session_id , session_serial# , sql_id ) max_tm,
min(sample_time) over (partition by session_id , session_serial# , sql_id ) min_tm
from dba_hist_active_sess_history
where sample_time between <begin time > and <end time >
and sql_id is not null) )
where exec_time > interval '75' SECOND
and exec_time < interval '105' SECOND group by session_id, session_serial#, sql_id, min_tm
having count(*) > 7
