Changing default Work Center during CATS time entry

Hi Folks,
I am hoping someone here can throw some expert advice.
Currently during time entry in CATS, we have Work Center coming in from the Work Order. Its getting defaulted without any option to change it. Business here has a need to change it. I have llooked into the CATS profile to see if there is a place that enable the WC to be defaulted.
In Transaction CAC1, there is a section that shows what fields are being defaulted during CAT2 time entry. However I do not see the Work Center as one of the option there.
Can any one help?
In short, where do we disable the defaulting of the WC from the Word Order during time entry?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Adding to what Kapil said; if the work centre is a grayed out in time shet screen then you can go to CAC2 transaction and make it editable. By this way users will be able to change the work centre on screen.

Automatic change of Work Center during Confirmation.

Happy New Year to all!
Just want to ask if anyone of you encountered the scenario during confirmation in which the backflushed work center was changed. The user claims that they did not do any changes during confirmation nor did they change manually the order itself. The confirmation happened last December and they only noticed it this month when they were checking the reports.
I did not configure their system so that they can change the Work Center during confirmation. By default, the work center is grayed out during confirmation.
Hope to hear from some of you soon!
Thanks and regards,

Dear
If your production order operations are re-scheuled and dispatched after Capacity Avalaiblity check in cm21/cm22/cm31 etc , then during the dispatch of operation , you have option to change Work Cnetre , time , date based on the selection option in Startgy profile (CM31/CM21-Enter the WORK CENTRE /Order ) and check wether work centre is changed.
One more option may be in Order Change in CO02-Operation Overview -Operation -Work centre -Here user may change the Work Centre .
If you have Order Change management active then you can trace the same .
Refer : Production order change history
Otherwise , there is not such confirguration in SPRO where work centre can be changed automatrically during confirmaiton because it will grade out based on the ste of confirmaiton default screen in OP00.
Hope it clarifies

Change Work Center during production order confirmation

Dear All,
I must to modeling this situation:
I created an production order. In routing I used an work center A.
After I confirmed a half of quantity, the work center A was damaged and I must to change it, with the work center B.
The system allow this change, but when I checked the costing, the situation isn't real. The system counted the costs just for the work center A, and no for work center B.
My question is: it's possible to change the work center, during production order confirmation and the costs updated with new cost?
Thank you for your answer!
Regards,
Marian

once a Order is released, the Process order detaisl for that order is frozen.
however if you want to do it, change the order status to CRTD after reversing the Movements done.
Do READ MAster data , this will copy the new Work center , redo the previously done Moevements.
if the change is long term.
or
Just manually add the new work center and do the processing. if the change is temporary.

How to define default Work Center in WebUI?

Hello,
We want to change the default Work Center in Web UI (the first one that will be opened when the system is started).
How is it possible to perform it?
Thanks in advance,
Sergey

Hello Sergey.
If it's still relevant for you. You can change default work center in navigation bar profile of your business role (tx. CRMC_UI_NBLINKS). On the first screen (where all navigation bar profiles are displayed) there is a third column "Link ID". Here you put link id of the default Work Center.
Hope this will help.

Hi Rahul,
Thanks for reply. I am maintained in diff value maintained routing , Ex :First routing i have work center 'X' value maintained as a setup time in 15 Min's and operation time 10 Min's
second work center 'Y' I have maintained as set up time 10 Min's and operation time 30 Min's,
Now I want to change the work center in production order as a 'Y' so whatever value maintained in routing , it has to be changed automatically (10 min's and 30 Min's), but system will not change only old value only picked (15Min's AND 10 Min's).
Now I think you get to know what the client requirement, kindly do the need full.

Change in Work center

Hi SAP Friends,
I want to do some tick marks in capacity field of work center in one work center as well similar tick mark at other work center also.
Please Tell how to do in one time?
Plaese Reply.
Chandra.

Hi,
First in T. Code : OP36, you need to define the Default Capacity.
Enter your plant and Capacity catgort for e.g : "001".
Define the default values carefully.
Then Secondly, in T. Code : OP42, you need to define the Default Work center.
With thses two settings every time you will get the work center with filled in fields and you can modify at any point in time.
But, to change the Work center Capcity details, I guess there is no Mass Maintenance Transaction..

Siva

CATS Time Entry - Charging time to a different cost center

We are looking at using CATS for time entry for our salaried non-exempt employees. Some of these employees charge their overtime to a different cost center. For example, normally their overtime is charged to their own cost center but periodically they help another group and need to charge the overtime to the other group's cost center. In the CATS profile where you select the fields you want to be available for input, display, etc., I see cost center as an option. However, when I select it as a field for input, it does not appear on the timesheet. I see there are other cost center fields (receiver cost center, sender cost center) but I thought these had more to do with work orders (not sure of that, though) and work orders are not used for this group of people. Currently, the time is being charged to an alternate cost center when the time administrator enters the overtime via PA30 and then selects the 'Cost assignment' button to record the appropriate cost center. I would appreciate any information/guidance you can provide. Thank you.

Hi Kathleen,
We are trying to do the same thing so I understand exactly what you are asking. We made the sender cost center field an input field via the IMG - Cross-Applications Components> Time Sheet> Time Recording> Choose fields> - select data entry section and look for sender cost centre - field name CATSD-SKOSTL - ensure "input" is selected.
Eventhough we have been able to enter an alternative cost center with an attendance (i.e., different from the employee's cost center saved on IT0001), it is not being transferrred to HR (does not appear on attendance infotype) therefore payroll does not pick-up the cost center with the attendance hours and it is not posted to FI. Payroll continues to use the employee's home cost center.
Have you been able to get any further with this issue?
You can contact me directly if you like - 1-613-599-8600 - ext 243.

Change default Windows background during deployment

I have a Windows deployment server up and running and deploying custom Windows 7&8 images which all work fine. I want to be able to change the default Windows background to a custom image during deployment so when a new user is created and logs in locally,
my image is displayed rather than the default one. I know this can be done by changing an entry in the registry, but I would like some help in creating a script to do this during deployment and also where this script would have to be placed and how to run
this. I am a noob at scripting and any help would be appreciated! ;)
Thanks in advance

I am using the process documented at the link below in my builds today with a lot of success. In addition to setting the background for every user, it will also allow for setting the colors and accents. Pretty good stuff from the guys at CoreTech.

IW41: automatic update of activity type when changing the work center?

Hello colleagues,
when doing a time confirmation with IW41, we have following problem:
In the PM order the operations are assigned to a neutral executing work center, as it not known which individual technician is completing the operation later on.
Now when the individual technician is entering the time confirmation with IW41, system is proposing the work center indicated in the operation from the PM order, then technician is overwriting the work center proposal with his own individual work center ID (and pressing Enter), but the activity type is not getting updated automatically. So the technician must jump to field "activity type" and choose the correct activity type.
Is there any solution (hopefully with user exits!) to have the field "activity type" automatically updated with the one indicated in the work center, which was entered manually?
Thanks for your ideas!
Regards,
Patrick

Hi Maheswaran,
yes, as usual all PM work centers have only 1 activity type assigned in the costing tab.
We also checked the settings of the activity type (KL03), but we just found one difference: the price indicator was set on 3 "Determined manually" - we've changed to 1 "Plan price, automatically based on activity" (..same setting as for the act. type of the work center with working update of act.type).
We tested already all possible constellations and scenarios, but we have not found any good reason for the behaviour.
Thanks for your efforts so far!

Block production work center during maintenance order

Dear Experts,
iam trying to do the integration between PM and PP, I want to block the production work center from any production order when there is any maintenance order opened for a certain equipment which is inside this work center ,
till now i did the following:
1) the production work center is now inside the equipment location tab
2) when i open any maintenance order i put system condition as zero
now what i only achieved ,
- in transaction CM25 the capacity is black for the period of the maintenance order
BUT the work center is not blocked and any production order can be created without any error
please help and much thanks in advance
Best Regards

Hi,
Till time you have performed right things to integrate PP-PM & system is also responding according to setting.
Showing block capicity in CM25 against the Maintenance Order.
If you want to block production order as well, you need to do one more setting.
go to t- code OIOI, selection Production order types (those you want to block) & in capacity Availabilty choose Collect conversion as 3 : No creation if there is insufficiant caacity.
i hope this will definately solve your problem.

PM Order - Change operations Work Center to Main Work Center

Hi Experts,
We have prepared a tool for client, which create Maintenance Plan and order in the background.
The order created is having "Main Work Center" defined at header and "Work Center" at the operations level. In the current scenario the "Main Work Center" and "Work Center" are different say 'ABC' & u2018XYZu2019.
Client has the requirement that work center maintained at operations should be same as the main work center.
We need to implement the solution to take care of work center to be same as main work center while creation of the order in the background.
Has anyone worked on the similar requirement before?
I checked for existing USER EXITS for IW31/32/33 and found only one IWO10012. This doesnu2019t seem to be much useful.
Please suggest any possible solution.
Thanks,
Ankur Sharma

Hi,
The work Center entered by default comes in operation work center, u can do validations while saving the Order :-using user exit : IWO10009 PM Order: Customer Check for 'Save' Event.

How to change property file contents during run time?

Hi everyone. First post so go easy on me please.
I have a couple of properties that I want to read from a from a file. To achieve this I simply use:
ResourceBundle.getBundle("my.package.MyItems").getString("MyProperty");
This works like a wonder. The problem is, i want to change the property "MyProperty" during runtime. I've found the properties file (MyItems.properties) inside weblogic, but if a change its contents it does not reflect in the application.
I can come up with a couple of justifications:
* I'm not looking in the right folder/changing the wrong file in the server;
* Weblogic caches the properties file, meaning that I have to redeploy the project (defeating the purpose of actually having a properties file).
Can anyone help with this one?
[EDIT] Forgot important info:
* JDeveloper 11.1.1.4
* Weblogic 11.3 (not 100% sure)
* Both JDev and WebLogic running on Windows 7 64 bits
Thank you in advance!

JDeveloper 11.1.1.4, not 3

I tried it all.
Just an explanation of my context.
I have 1 application with 2 projects in it. First project is called "CommonUI_ViewController" and the second one "FO_ViewController".
The properties file I'm trying to change is located inside "CommonUI_ViewController", in package "PropertiesConfig" and the file is called "PhaseListener.properties".
"FO_ViewController" is dependent on "CommonUI_ViewController". When I run "FO_ViewController" the integrated weblogic server log shows this (among other things):
[10:25:55 AM] Wrote Web Application Module to D:\JDeveloper\dump\system11.1.1.4.37.59.23\o.j2ee\drs\SPV_BPM\FO_ViewControllerWebApp.war
[10:25:57 AM] Wrote Web Application Module to D:\JDeveloper\dump\system11.1.1.4.37.59.23\o.j2ee\drs\SPV_BPM\CommonUI_ViewControllerWebApp.war
Note: both lines above point to folders. "FO_ViewControllerWebApp.war" and "CommonUI_ViewControllerWebApp.war" are NOT war files, but folders that have that name.
I tried changing the properties file in the following locations:
* D:\JDeveloper\dump\system11.1.1.4.37.59.23\o.j2ee\drs\SPV_BPM\FO_ViewControllerWebApp.war\WEB-INF\lib\adflibSPVCommonUI.jar > PropertiesConfig\PhaseListener.properties;
* D:\JDeveloper\dump\system11.1.1.4.37.59.23\o.j2ee\drs\SPV_BPM\CommonUI_ViewControllerWebApp.war\WEB-INF\lib\adflibSPVCommonUI.jar > PropertiesConfig\PhaseListener.properties;
* D:\JDeveloper\dump\system11.1.1.4.37.59.23\o.j2ee\drs\SPV_BPM\CommonUI_ViewControllerWebApp.war\WEB-INF\classes\PropertiesConfig\PhaseListener.properties (no need to open any jar/war to get to this one).
I changed all these files with different values but no change was shown in the application (using the method in the previous post).
I believe that I'm still doing something wrong :/
Thank you for your help so far vinod_t_krishnan!
