CO-PA characteristic group for recurring FI document?

Hi.
We have a characteristic gorup assigned to "FI: Postings" - business transaction RFBU, but when the user tries to create a recurring document, using transaction FBD1, she gets all characteristics, so the group is not assigned in this case.
What business transaction should I assign to use the charateristic group in recurring documents?
Thx
Thomas

Thanks, Anand. RFIG is already assigned, and that's not it. It would surprise me if RFBV is the one (based on the text).
I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but I would really like to hear this from someone who knows - if it's a matter of guessing and trial and error I can do this myself:-) The thing is, I would rather not have to make system changes and transport to QA only to find that it doesn't solve the problem!
Regards
Thomas

Tolerance Groups for Employees in document parking

Dear Experts,
Our client wants to restrict, user should post maximum 2000 USD in a single document. I have created the tolerance group and I have assigned the same to the user.
When I park the document system is not checking the tolerance limits at the same time, when I post the document system is checking the tolerance limits for the same user.
Our requirement is at document parking level.
Please advice how to solve this.
Thanks

Hi,
I tried with validation, but there only BKPF and BSEG table fields are available. Table relates to park document is not available.
Is there any other inputs?

Park and Post for recuring entries

Hi,
Can anyone tell me is it possible to have SOD in park and post for recurring entries documents - f.14?
For the purpose of segregation of duties, I need accountant A to allow to create/park recurring entries but not post. Acccountant B will be allow to post the recurring documents created by account A.
Pls help.
Thanks.

Hi,
Here's my thoughts on this.
As it is Recurring entries is a two step transaction.
Have "Segregation of Responsibilities" at the time of creation of the Recurring entires itself.
and have the second person to post it. Of course you can prevent the second person from changing any thing in the recurring document.
Rather than Parking the recurring documents.

How to add a default user group for multiple document type's?

Hi,
I am trying to add same default user group for different document types when MA is created. Is there any way to setup using a single "Document Security Template"? Or I need to create different templates for different document types?
Please confirm.
Thanks,
Saloni

Hi Saloni,
Based on what your specific requirement, it might be easier to do it with scripting.
If you are doing it using Document Security Templates, you would have to create a Document Security Template for each of the 6 MA types and assign the default group. Create another one and leave the Document Type field blank, so it will apply to the other 4 MA types that don't have a default group.

Vikram

How to create Characteristic group in CO-PA for assessment purpose

Hi,
Can anybody guide me as how to create Characteristic group in CO-PA for assessment of cost center balance to CO-PA?
Thanks,
Bijay

You need to be more specific in your request - are you looking for a sender, or a receiver grouping? Which characteristic? Is it to be all the values in a characteristic, or is it to be groups of those characteristics.
Have a look at the setting up of hierarchies for characteristics in COPA master data.

Service group for particular document type or Purchase Organisation

Dear Gurus,
I want to add service group as like Material group. but my objective is to restrict those service group for particular document type or Purchase Organisation??
Is it possible, if so please advice me the SPRO Settings
Thanks
RS

Hi,
Basically, this task (both customized table activation via SE11 transaction and user exit activation via SE37 transaction) will be done by ABAPer. All you should do is to prepare the functional specs document in which you require -
1)   A generation and activation of the customized table which consists of at least four columns -
     a)   Purchasing Organization;
     b)   Purchasing Document Type;
     c)   Material group/service group
     d)   Purchasing Document Creation Date
2)   A coding and activation of the related function module (You can use SMOD transaction to view the enhancement MM06E005 to view related user exit).

How to associate more than one security group for UCM documents?

When checking in a document we are only able to associate one security group to documents. In our case, a particular document can be seen by more than one group e.g a document can be seen bu both finance and marketing groups.
How can we associate more than one group for documents?
Our requirement is related to search. We want to display the documents to the end user based on the security group that is associated with the document. We are planning to use IDM and have all the groups/roles that are possible in the end site (also delivered by same ldap) available in UCM so that when checking in the documents we can associate desired groups who can see these documents.
Regards,
Pratap

One thing before all, is that I suggest that you think through your security model before implementing it in UCM. You should ask yourself questions like :
- Is security really based on department ?
- Why two departments need to have access to the same category of document ?
- Is it really security that I need or classification ? Is it a problem if Accouting have access to Finance or you just don't want Marketing documents in a finance related search ?
- Maybe what you want is that finance guys to have access to marketing document.
Without a clear business security model, it's hard to find a UCM security model as it is impossible to associate 2 security groups to one document.

BTE for Recurring document CREATED

Hello,
I would appreciate if you can help me with my issue.
I am trying to trigger and event to start my WF.
The scenario is to start a workflow when a RECURRING ENTRY DOCUMENT is posted in the T-code FBD1, and then send it to approvers for the approval of this document. I having trouble triggering the event when this document is created in the t-code FBD1. The entries are saved in the table BKPF, so I thought I could use the BO - 'BKPF' and its event 'CREATED'. Please let me know how I can ahieve this using BTEs.
Thank you.

Hello,
I have a small question here,
the event 'CREATED', triggered through BTE 1030, belongs to the BO - BKPF. so, i guess, it will have the key fields of BO - BKPF in its OBJECTKEY. and it does have the same.
but, the scenario wants the workflow to be triggered when a change is made too, not just created.
creation is done in FBD1 (RECURRING FI DOCUMENT) and change is done in FBD2.
there is this standard event 'CHANGED' that is automatically getting triggered when a change is made. which I added to my WF as triggering event. but, the event 'CHANGED' has extra three characters (system number) in front for its objectkey and hence its not passing this information (unable to bind, probably) to the WF container element of type BKPF. so, the WF gives an error.
how do you think this can be resolved. any, help is greatly appreciated.
thank you.

How to schedule a workflow for recurring executions: The solution

Scheduling a workflow for recurring execution has been long awaited in WFA, perhaps from 2.0 time. The following document shows how to get it done. I've also explained the logic behind it. It’s very simple to use, meets every requirement which one can have from a scheduler and of course highly flexible. Let's go!! The Real stuff. What is this? Is this actually a scheduler? No. This is actually a command in your workflow, but a special 'magical' command. This 'magical' command logic is built using the answers for the following questions: Can a workflow be scheduled for a delayed execution in a future time? Yes, but only one execution instance. If you want the next execution, execute the workflow again providing the same set of inputs and the execution date/time.During workflow execution, can a command inside a workflow get to know what is the name of the workflow? YesDuring workflow execution, can the command know what is the job execution id? YesIs there any programmatic interface available to know what are the user input provided or a particular job execution? YesCan a command inside a workflow trigger another workflow? Yes.Can a command inside the same workflow trigger itself? Absolutely yes. I've ticked all boxes needed to build such a solution. The solution is to make the workflow a smart workflow, so smart that it can schedule itself for the next execution. It no longer needs any other task scheduler to tigger it. WFA provides a large set of REST APIs for other 3rd part SW integration. But I also can make good use of these APIs to make smart workflows. I have always believed that WFA should not only be seen as a framework for automating Storage boxes or server, but just about any task( inside a computer of course) which is done manually. WFA is an awesome product indeed. So this is a command called "Workflow Scheduler" which you can put in your workflow as another command. Prerequisites: You need PowerShell 3.0 on your WFA server. I certainly could have done it for PoSH2.0 as well, but life for web interfaces using PowerShell is so much easier with Posh3.0. Posh3.0 is a big jump from 2.0. WFA is fully supported to work on Posh3.0. Its available by default in Win2012, Win2008 can be upgraded, Win2003 users can't use it. Add credentials of a WFA Admin/Architect in you WFA itself with Name/IP: localhost Match: ExactType: OtherName/IP: localhostUsername: <WFA Admin/Architect Username>Password: <User Password> 3. Minimum WFA version 2.2. This is only needed for Importing the dar. I've provided the command code in text too. The command code is the real deal. How to use it? If you have a workflow which you want for recurring executions, just add this command "Workflow Scheduler" in it. The command takes parameters for the workflow execution intervals. For example minsInterval for executing this workflow every x minutes, or daysInterval for executing the workflow etc.Now just like a normal workflow execution execute this workflow deciding what is the trigger time. Example: Suppose you want the execution every day at 10:00 PM.So provide daysInterval = 1 And execute the workflow for a delayed execution at 10:00 PM. You can pick the day to start as you wish. The workflow will execute at 10:00 PM and when this execution reaches our magical command "workflow scheduler", this command will trigger the same workflow with same set of inputs for the next execution at 10:00 PM tomorrow. And so on an so forth. I’ve attached a very simple example workflow here to help you understand. An Example of a workflow scheduled for recurring execution Daily at 11:30 PM starting 10-March-2015 How to stop/suspend this recurring execution? Easy. You just abort the next scheduled job execution in Execution=> Execution Status. The cycle will stop. How to resume it? Easy again. Just resume the same aborted job. The cycle restarts. Can I change the schedule execution time? Yes. After aborting the current execution, you can resume the same workflow at a new time. Execution interval can't be modified as you can't change the command parameters. But the recurring execution now can occur at a new time. Where or which position to place this “workflow scheduler” command in your workflow? At the beginning ? At the end? Or somewhere in the middle. This completely depends on your choice. See some below cases. You don't want the next job execution scheduling to happen if any of the commands in my current workflow execution fails: Put command “workflow scheduler” in the end. It will trigger the schedule of the next job execution only when all real original commands of your workflow have passed. else not. You want continuous job executions irrespective of the workflow command failures: Put it in the beginning. It will trigger the schedule for next execution before any of the actual command begin executing. You want an approval before the next execution job is scheduled: Add an approval point before the comamnd. So it’s all left to you. Can an operator decide the execution schedule? Yes, but which workflows will be available to him/her for this recurring execution will have to be decided by the designer. This is a good thing to have as it serves for access control in a way. The Architect/Admin can now restrict which workflow can be put for recurring executions. Operators can’t execute just any workflow available to him for automatic recurring execution. And the workflow designer can also choose which scheduling parameter is to be made a variable for the operator. For example the designer want the operator to schedule a given workflow only for weeks Interval and not months or days i.e. he/she can only chose to schedule for weekly, biweekly etc. executions and nothing else. For this the designer can define a User-Input variable only for weeksInterval parameter. It’s Done. You want workflow execution to be scheduled either for daily or once in 2 days but not any other. You can restrict this. Or he/she wants to give full freedom to the operator make his/her own decision about scheduling, he defined user-input variable for all scheduling parameters. The workflow designer wants weekly schedule but the day should not be a weekday: You can even do this. Is this flexible enough for my requirements? I’ve attached the very command code. You can modify the command as per your requirements. Suppose you want daily execution of a certain workflow at 10:00 PM but skip a day of execution if the day is a Monday. Modify the code check for the day and add another day if it’s a Monday. Its posh code and highly readable. So you can see how this can be used in a variety of ways. This is the beauty of a programmatic solution. Its highly flexible, it allows users to design solution based on their requirements. Flexibility is the heart & soul of WFA. Thats why I like it. I have a workflow but I don't want to modify it by adding a new command in it. Can I still use this solution? Yes but with WFA 3.0 on wards. WFA3.0 allows to create modular workflows. Create a parent workflow with you actual workflow as a child workflow in it. Add our “workflow scheduler” command too. So now you don't need to touch your existing workflow. I've attached a workflow example here. Have fun!! sinhaa

Providing a new version 1.1.0 of the command "WFA Schedular" Changes made: Added conditional String Representation based on the Scheduling parameter provided. Provided check for the right number of parameters passed into the command.Added a new parameter "Expiry Date" to automatically stop the recurring execution upon expiry.Check for Posh3.0 version in code.Have Fun!! sinhaa Below example for:Schedule a workflow for recurring execution every alternate day i.e. once in 2 days at 10:30 PM starting 06-Jul-2015 (Today's date is 02-Jul-2015) . The recurring workflow execution should expire on 31-Dec-2015 and stop.

SIS Statisitcs Group for Outbound Delivery

Dear Gurus,
There is a requirement to get a report on
Qty Ordered,
Actual Delivered Qty
Open Qty
Is it possible to achieve it using SIS?
I checked in the system and "Outbound Delivery' Document 'LF' doesn't contain Statistics Group.
I came across the following Point.
Note that it is only advisable to assign a statistics group value to those
deliveries and delivery items that do not contain a reference to an order.
How can I achieve the above requirement?
Regards,
RK

Hi,
The error implies that the OBD type LF does not have the Statistics Group set.
The same can be done as follows:
Go to OVLP tcode and select your item Category and then look for the ItemCat.stst.group field and maintain the required options.
Note: About Statistics Group:
                                                                                Definition
Specifies a statistics group for this item category and helps determine
     which data the system updates in the logistics information system.
Use
You can assign statistics groups to each of the following:
o   Item category
o   Sales document type
o   Customer
o   Material
When you generate statistics in the logistics information system, the
system uses the combination of specified statistics groups to determine
the appropriate update sequence. The update sequence in turn determines
for exactly which fields the statistics are generated.

Calendar View: Unable filter Recurring Event by Start/End Time and Group by Recurring Event View

Hi All,
I have just found several issues with Calendar View from WSS 3.0:
Unable to filter by [Start Time] and [End Time]
I am not sure why these 2 columns doesn't appear in the Filtering column in the View Settings. The workaround found in the internet is to create calculated column for Start Time and and End Time. However, it doesn't work for Recurring Event, the calculated column will show only first recurring event Start Time.
Unable to use "Group By"
When I create new view in Calendar using format: "Standard View, with Expanding Recurring Events", there is no option to specify "Group By". Anyone knows how to show all recurring event in List view and grouped by Start Time (or any other column).
Thank you and apprecate for any idea.

Hello,
I got this from a colleague of mine so I can't take credit for it but here might be a possible workaround:
1. Create two new Columns called Start Filter and End Filter. Make these columns Calculated Columns with formulas of [Start Time] and [End Time] respectively. The columns should be of the Date and Time\Date and Time type and should not be displayed on the Default View.
2. Click Advanced Settings and choose Yes to the question "Allow management of Content Types" in the Content Types section. Click OK.
3. Click on the Event Content Type. Open the two columns created in step 1 and select "hidden" for both of them. Click OK.
4. Back at the list settings create a new view or edit an existing view. When you get to the filter section choose "Show items only when the following is true" and select the following:
Start Filter
is less than or equal to
[Today]
And
End Filter
is greater than or equal to
[Today]
5. Click OK to save the view.
6. Open the List view web part that is displaying the recently changed calendar and change the view to the newly created or newly edited view. Click Apply, OK.

Tolerance Group for G/L Accounts

Hello,
In the spro Financial Accounting>General Ledger Accounting>Business Transactions>Open Item Clearing>Clearing Differences-->Define Tolerance Groups for G/L Accounts, according to SAP documentation it is possible: "For G/L account clearing, tolerance groups define the limits within which differences are accepted and automatically posted to predefined
accounts. The groups defined here can be assigned in the general ledger account master record".
I put these setting:
Company Code: XXXX
Tolerance group: XXX
Name: XXXXX
Debit Posting: 0,01 Percentage: 1,0
Credit Posting: 0,01 Percentage: 1,0
Also I populate in the account master data the field Tolerance group with XXX.
Then I used the transaction for automatic clearing F.13 and when I run this transaction I have two document with amount 100,01 and -100 and there is a difference of 0,01.
I'd like to avoid to have this difference and apply a rounding. How it is possible? The spro transaction seems to be used to accept this rounding and not to delete it during the clearing.
Thanks a lot,
Emanuela

Hi,
SAP is not "deleting" the difference during clearing (as you wrote in your last sentence).
Using the function you've mentioned you can define tolerance limits for minor differences to trigger an automatic posting to predefined GL accounts during clearing.
The difference is real, it can't disappear / rounded off.
Best regards, Christian
