Changing existing Material Group user defined names to new mat groups

Hi Gurus,
My client is using conventional Material Groups user defined names for ages in their system.
Now they have requested us to workout for switching over to UNSPSC material groups Global Standardization.
While carrying out the exerice, they have asked us to completely clean up the entire system to replace the new material group with old in all Masterdata, transaction data including statistics table in pr, po, stock and in everything
If any one of you have carried out this exercise and if you have any useful documentation, please inform me
Thanks and Best Regards,
Mohan

Hi,
If you change the Material groups in Material master the system the system will not update the PR/PO/Stock or others.
You need to change all the documents to update the New Material groups.
For Material master update you can use the LSMW.
You can update the PR/PO also but if the PR/PO is subjected to Release Strategy then you need to derelease then change the material group then update and if it is based on the Material group then while update the new release strategy will apply and you have to change everything.
Think of that if you have huge data then it is very difficult to change all the documents. if the data is Less you can proceed .
Instead of deleting old material groups just add the new material groups and use them in future for all your process.

Pricing - Condition Types 0PR0 v/s user defined name

Hi All
Please clarify the difference in using the condition type 0PR0 (For Basic Price)and a user defined or created condition type for the purpose of Creating Pricing procedures.
Regards
Mohammed

Hello Mohammed,
If you create your condition type as a copy of 0PR0 or you create it with the same settings in condition type customizing then the functionality would be exactly the same as if you used 0PR0.

Copy User Defined CoA to New COmpany

Hi all,
For one of the implementation project that i am into, i am creating different companies. While creating a new company i have an option to copy all the user defined fields and user defined objects to the comapny, but no option to copy the User Defined Chart of Accounts into the new company that i create.
Is there any workaround for this scenario in SAP Business One? I am using SAP Business One 2005 India Localization.

Andrews,
You should try using Copy Express AddOn available on the SBO CD.

Made a bad change to login options under user preferences, changed from "List of users" to "Name and password". I shut the computer down, now I can't login in when I turn the computer back on. What can I do to fix this problem?

Have Migrated data from IMAC to Macbook twice. Because I had too many admin ids under user and accounts preferences, I was trying not to delete the extras but that they wouldn't all show at login time. Under Login Options, I clicked out "List of Users" and clicked in "Name and password". Can't remember whether I did anything else. I shut down the computer and turned it back on to test the change. I get a dark grey screen with all my admin ids in circled pictures plus one for guest, but doesn't let me do anything with any of the admin ids. I clicked on any one and nothing happens. IF i click on the guest circle, it gives me a message that the computer will restart with only Safari allowed.
Since I haven't been able to connect my macbook to my IMac so I can login to the macbook through the Imac, I can't get to my macbook. There must be a way to fix this problem. I expected to see places to enter name and password but nothing is allowed to enter. Please help!

First thing I would do would be to boot in to Lion Recovery (Command+R on boot) and run Disk Utility, both disk and permissions repair.

User defined name in place of application server in SAPGUI 6.40

Hi,
Can anybody please let me know how to define company name in place of static Ip in SAPGUI 6.40.
I am using AIX 5.3L / Oracle 9.x / ECC 5.0
I have given static IP in the space provided for application server which I don't want. I want to give company initials (XYZ) in place of application server for the safety purpose.
Thanks in advance
Sanjay

U can put the ip of the host server or the hostname of the server. How can you put the company's name. And wven if you put the company name which machine it will connect.
But if you want to do it by any means then do it as under\
In the frontend computer got to---->Windows->system32-->Drivers--->etc
There will be a file hosts.
make the following entry in this file
192.168.0.xxxx company name
means the ip of the sap server your company name
Use this name in the sapgui setting.
But the restriction is that in every frontend machines this entry has to be mentioned.
Pl dont forget to award points

Changing membership of a user to be member of another group

Hello,
I have a user CN=peter,OU=classes,OU=asr,DC=bodensee,DC=de
I want to dissolve his membership in
CN=ASR7,OU=classes,OU=asr,dc=bodensee,dc=de
and make him new member of
CN=ASR8,OU=classes,OU=asr,dc=bodensee,dc=de
so the pupil from class ASR7 will upgrade to ASR8 with his membership what means he could have eventually more user rights in the windows 2000 domain like using the printer.
I have read using the forum search, that the attribute memberOF is read only attribute and cannot be set is that true? And if yes how can i set it then? Is it possible to change the membership of a user using the LDAP Booster Pack?

*there are user-defined dimensions already assigned to an application or at*

Define a new business group

My company has been divided into two so i would like to define a new business group for the sister company.
My question is in what ways will the defining of the new business group affect the creating of the new payroll and elements for the sister company.
Is it possible to use the same elements that were defined for the company initially or is it that i will have to define all the elements all over again for the sister company?
The reason why i am asking is because there will be no change in the allowance and/or deductions that will be performed on the emps that are in sister company and the actual company.
all comments are highly appreciated!

Hi,
Is your business already decided that you should go for a new BG for your sister company??
If you are planning to go for a new BG, then you have to do setup/implementation for your sister company from scratch.. You have to define all the elements all over again for the sister company.. It's to be treated as a different entity now as it is detached from Parent..and this is required for better reporting purpose..
Since you informed that your sister company is going to follow the same set of rules /approach like parent company, then why don't you keep both business in same umbrella ..I mean BG..
In this case your sister company implementation is going to be treated as a rollout or an extension to parent...
Now choice is yours to decide where you want to stand.. :)
It's indeed a nice question, please wait for few more suggestions from other Business Gurus.. :)

New Business Group in HR 11.5.7 FP.G.

New Business Group in HR 11.5.7 FP.G.
Hi all,
We have Oracle HR 11.5.7 (Family Pack G), SSHR 5.2, WorkFlow 2.6.0.
We currently have two different Business Groups for Country A (Main Banking Operations) and Country B (Banking Operations Abroad).The Human Resources Dept wants to create a New Business Group to hold information for an Insurance Company that belongs to the Group (base at Country A) but whose employees'(currently they are not held in Oracle HR) have different collective agreements and reporting structures.Also users of Insurance not to be able to see data from banking Operations, but some users in banking to be able to see all data.
Firstly, can anyone help us regarding the pros/flexibility and cons/limitations of creating a New Business Group for the purpose described above?
From the way I see it if we create a New Business Group we will have more overhead even if the Flexfield Structures will remain the same.If we use the existing Country A BG to hold this info we will have to change all responsibilities/users/ profiles to restrict access based on less clearly defined lines as opposed to a New BG.
If we will proceed with the creation of a New Business Group (Users requested for a new BG to be created) does anyone knows or have an implementation/priority step guide/plan for a new BG not limited just to the creation of the Organization details?
Does anyone have an indication as to the average time required to setup a new BG as described above with all related information completed(security/ responsibilities/Organizations/positions/jobs/locations/grades/ elements/element links/special info/etc)?
Lastly, we recently setup SSHR 5.2 for the purposes of Online Appraisal System for the BG of Country A-Main Banking Opreations. Is there any impact that we have to consider, regarding the new BG?
I hope someone can give me some feedback!
Thanking you in advance for your much appreciated help.
Best regards,
Elena

Dear 'thierry' and 'HCMgaclark'
Thanks a lot for your replies.
In case I convince Key Business users to use the existing BG is there an easy way to exclude these new employees from showing in all reporting unless we want to display them?
One reason that will cause us difficulties to do that is the fact that we are not using the Position/Organization Hierachies of the HR. instead we use an additional Organization Flexfield to hold a code that represents our organizational structure due to our Payroll links.
We use Discoverer 4.1.41.05 for reporting purposes. We created our own EUL and have 2 BUsiness Areas, one for each BG.Users connect as Super Users (Responsibility). If we add these employees in the existing BG, what worries me is that we have to specifically exclude from each report the new employees and structures while in some cases a user should be able to see both.
is there an easy way out of these problems?
If we eventually decide to use a separate BG does anyone knows or have an implementation/priority step guide/plan for a new BG not limited just to the creation of the Organization details?
Thanks a lot for your time and help.
Best regards,
Elena

Change material group for an existing material

Hi all,
What is the steps to change a material group for an existing material?
Is there any impact on the reports if I were to change the material group of an existing material?
Thanks and regards,
JT

Yes, You can change in MM02 and also while changing you will get the folloeing Warning message..
You are changing material group, but material already used by purchasing
     Message no. M3531
Procedure
     When changing the material group of a material that is already being
     used by the purchasing department, you should note that:
     o   The purchasing statistics show how much of a material group has
         already been ordered. Unitl the change is made, the material is
         managed under the old material group and therefore the old material
         group statistics are updated. From the moment the change is made,
         the new material group's statistics are updated.
     o   Some purchase orders may derive from contracts with item categories
         referring to material groups. If this is the case, the material
         cannot be used after the change has been made.
     o   Every purchase requisition is allocated to a release strategy that
         can depend on the material group. A new release strategy may apply
         to a new material group. Purchase requisitions that were created
         before the change are subject to the old strategy; purchase
         requisitions that were created after the change are subject to the
         new strategy.
