Confuesed about Project resources : Stock / PR / PO

Hi guys,
I use IDES to run an demo project, set collect WBS , and assign material A to 2 options:
option 1 needs A   5 pcs
option 2 needs AB   10 pcs
After running MRP, I have 2 PRs for the material A and both belongs to the same WBS Code .
PR1 , A 5pcs, special stock flag Q, WBS code: P-1
PR2, A 10pcs, special stock flag Q, WBS code: P-1
And then I convert PRs to POs,
PO1 , A 5pcs, special stock flag Q, WBS code: P-1
PO2, A 10pcs, special stock flag Q, WBS code: P-1 .
Now, I change the qty in the WBS to
option 1 needs A   10 pcs
option 2 needs B   5 pcs
Run MRP again, I have a new PR
PR3 , A 5pcs, special stock flag Q, WBS code: P-1 .
That confused me, if the special stock flag links with WBS code P-1 , why the resources can't share ? I mean the total qty of A for P-1 is 15, its enough. I test again after GR to stock , still generate PR3.
And then I found the material docs of GR shows the resources (stock) belong to WBS and NETWORK .
How to configure to share the resources under the same WBS code (special stock) ? I dont want another PR3 .Thanks all !

Sorry, made some copy mistake .
The Question should be :
I use IDES to run an demo project, set collect WBS , and assign material A to 2 options:
avtivity 1 needs A 5 pcs

Project Resource Calendars for onshore and offshore (different working hours)

Advice please.
As with many companies we use Project 2010 with onshore and offshore resources.
Facts are as follows:
Onshore resource – 09:00 – 17:00 – 35 hour week
Offshore resource – 08:00 – 18:00 – 40 hour week
These resources are in different time zones; however that element is not an issue.
The problem seems to be with resource calendars. Resource calendars are setup as per above and assigned to appropriate resources in EPM/Project Server 2010 - however could be local for same issue.
The problem is that work is reflected correctly in hours or days but not both.
So looking at Task usage table.
For example:
Typing in hours for Onshore and Offshore resources on any task is correct.
So 7 for onshore and 9 for offshore. However when you can the work view in options so that work is entered in days, its incorrect for offshore.
Same hours for both but incorrect days. Basically the resource calendar does not seem to have an impact.
The Plan default working times can be set to either schedule but either way one or the other type of resource is out.
For instance : Offshore resource 9 hours should equate to 1day. However it equates to 1.29 days.
Which would be correct if that resource was on an onshore cal.
My assumption is as follows:
Set the Project default hours to 08:00 – 18:00 – 9 hour days, 40 hour week.
This allows offshore to work there hours as the project plan is effectively open for business.
Onshore resources should then be restricted to their resource calendar meaning that they only work 7 hours per day regardless of the plan indicating 9 hour days.
Hope that makes sense...
Any thoughts would be much appreciated…..

Hi,
Everything you write is right, and your confusion only stems from the misunderstanding of how Project defined the "day" as a time unit.
Matter of fact, Project uses for its calculations only ONE time unit which is the MINUTE.
Of course, that implies the HOUR is a usable unit as well - an hour being 60 minutes isn't questioned by anyone.
OTOH, your post illustrateds tha a definition for day is not so obvious; Project's definition is that a day is always equal to an hour times the parameter "hours per day" in the options. So what a day is, is totally independent from any calendar, Project,
Resource or Task calendar. Within that definition the values you see are "right".
But the good news is that your other assumption,quote:
Onshore resources should then be restricted to their resource calendar meaning that they only work 7 hours per day regardless of the plan indicating 9 hour days.
That is true. Work is planned according to available working time in the appropriate calendar.
My advice is to not use the day as planning unit in any view: the hour will better allow to understand how Project is planning the tasks.
Greetings,

Problem about sales order stock stock transfer and batch determination

Hi, experts, I get a problem about sales order stock stock transfer and batch determination.The following is the current situation of my system:
In OMCG I assigned search procedure ME0001 to both 311 and 311 E and ticked check batch. After that, I found that if iI need to tranfer unrestricted-use material from storage location 1000 to 2000 with movement type 311, I just need to input * at the field batch, then the system will display all of the available batches. But for the transferring of sales order stock with movement type 311 E, after I input * at the batch field, no batch is displayed and there is also no message from the system.
Can anybody help me? Is there anything else I need to do? Thanks very much.

I think my question is not clear, actually I tried 562 E , 411 E and 413 already. all the transaction looking for the sales order but unfortunatly the sales order is deleted from SAP.

Resource Assignment without Project Resource Management Module

Hi Dina,
We are implementing Oracle projects for one of our customers. The customer does not want to implement Project Resource Management module. Is it possible to assign resources to a project or create a new requirement using the Resources tab in Project screen (HTML page) without implementing the Project Resource Management module. Pls let us know.
Regards,
Sri

Hi
With Project Management you can assign resources to the work plan. Resources might be named people or generic resource by job.
You can track planned hours by resource versus actual time worked, You can look at roll-up of planned hours across multiple projects for the same resource, or summarization of planned and actual hours using the RBS.
However, you will not get the functionality of demand published to resource managers, and the search functionality for available person to join the requiring project.

Project Resource Management

Given all of the Oracle Project solutions out there (EBS, Primavera, Fusion, PeopleSoft), which of these is the best choice for a company that would like to do resource allocation, forecasting, etc? (taking Oracle's longterm vision in this area into perspective)

Hi
The module Oracle Projects Resource Management deals only with human resources, employees, contingent workers, candidates.
This module is integrated with Oracle HRMS.

MRP - project (special) stock

Hi guys,
I have 3 questions.
1. In our storage location we are using project (special) stock. When I create reservation MRP creates PR. I post GR and than material is on the project stock. However during the next planning run MRP creates PR for the same reservation. Why MRP doesn't take into account project stock? Is it possible to change it?
2. MRP creates PRs with the delivery thate of the 1st day of the open period. Always 1 PR per material per week. How can I force MRP to create 1 PR per week for all of the materials from the same deliverer?
3. Is it possible to create PRs with the delivery date situated 4 workdays before the opening period.
BIG points are waiting:)

Hi,
are you using a grouping WBS element for your project stock? That makes sense if you want to have only "one" stock for the whole project and not one for every WBS element.

Project Resource Cost

We are not implementing Project Resource Management here.
What are the possible ways to enter the Cost incurred on an Employee (Salary) against the Project.
This cost has to be there on projects subledger as it will be considered to calculate the Project Revenue & Invoice using Cost/Cost Dist. Rule.

You don't need project resource management for this.
There are two ways to use the employee salary as project cost: -
1. You can use the organization rate schedule and enter employee/resource payroll/salary rates.
2. using labor costing extension, you will be able to pick up the payroll salary information from employee assignment element entry.

Which configuration to include another project resource ?

What configuration should I do in order that a project resource uses another's
project resource referring it to by its project root web context?
Example:
in Project1.jpr, file1.xsl includes Project2.jpr file2.xsl stating <xsl:include href="/project2/file2.xsl">
or
in Project1.jpr, file1.jsp includes Project2.jpr file2.jsp stating <%@include file="/project2/file2.xsl">
(Of course I do not want to use an absolute URI which includes the server name)

You would need to configure both projects to have the same "HTML Root" directory in their project settings.
In JDev, we have so far used the concept of each project representing a separate WAR structure, so by default projects have separate "HTML Root" directories. Since jsp:include operations and jsp:forward operations are not allowed to cross a WAR file boundary (per JSP 1.2 spec, section JSP.2.2.1), the only way to have jsp:forward and jsp:include to work is to put the two JSPs in the same WAR structure. In JDev this means having both JSPs in the same project, or having the two projects share the same HTML Root directory.

I have an early 2008 Mac Pro, 8 gb ram with a Dell 27" display and a 42" LG TV. I am thinking about upgrading the stock ATI Radeon 2600 graphics card for better resolution, preferring 2 dvi outputs. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best card?

I have an early 2008 Mac Pro, 8 gb ram with a Dell 27” display and a 42” LG TV. I am thinking about upgrading the stock ATI Radeon 2600 graphics card for better resolution, preferring 2 dvi outputs or 1 dvi and 1 vga vs 1 dvi and a mini. I don't do a lot of Final Cut Pro, gaming, etc. I am interested in best value for the graphics card.
Does anyone have any suggestions on the best graphics card for these larger displays for the best value?
Thanks,
Kevin

I recommend you install nothing older than the Apple-firware 5770, about US$250.
RE: Mac Pro Replacement Graphics cards
1) Apple brand cards,
2) "sold in the Apple store" cards, and
3) "Mac Edition" cards ...
... show all the screens, including Boot up screens, Safe Mode, Installer, Recovery, debug screens, and Alt/Option boot screens. At this writing, these choices include:
1) Apple brand cards:
• Apple-firmware 5770, about US$250** works near full speed in every model Mac Pro, Drivers in 10.6.5
• Apple-firmware 5870, about US$450
2) "sold in the Apple store" cards
• NVIDIA Quadro 4000, about US$1200
• NVIDIA Quadro 5000, about US$2500
3) "Mac Edition" cards -- REQUIRE 10.8.3 or later:
• SAPPHIRE HD 7950 3GB GDDR5 MAC Edition, about US$480** Vendor recommends Mac Pro 4,1
• EVGA GTX 680 Mac Edition, about US$600
The cards above require no more than the provided two 6-pin aux power connectors provided in the Mac Pro through 2012 model. Aux cables may not be provided for third-party cards, but are readily available.
If you are Meet ALL of these:
• running 10.8.3 or later AND
• don't care about "no boot screens" etc AND
• can re-wire or otherwise "work out" the power cabling, THEN:
You can use many more cards, even most "PC-only cards"

Hey Murray... About Project VII

I was browsing through some of their tutorials saw your
testimonial on the Project VII site. Then I got to looking at some
of their commercial extensions. I especially like the looks of
Image Gallery Magic, Pop Menu Magic and Tab Panel Magic.
What do you think about these? Worth the price? (remember,
I’m not a CSS wizard like you and not readily capable of
creating this code myself)

Take a look at this site. It's KeyLime, with IGM for the

Project Resource Weekend Allocation

I have built up a large number of independant projects that are currently active in my department. Each was completely individual until this week when I decided I needed a single resource pool, which would allow me to easily see how my resources are
divided up or over allocated. However, one problem I have is that a large number of tasks are listed as e's, as in eday, eweek, etc. So any recource assigned to those tasks is automatically highlighted as over allocated. If I were to switch
the hours of that resource to a 24 hour schedule, it messes up the timelines I have established.
Is there any way that I can have exceptions, or turn off the indicators for weekend use, and only show up for when a resource is overallocated? Or would I need to go back and fix each timeline? I can do this going forward, but I don't want to
lose a lot of work already done.

Hi,
Is there a particular reason for using elapsed duration? This is typically used for example after painting a wall for the task where the painting is drying. This drying task is independant of any calendar, weekends or exceptions. You should just use elapsed
for specific reasons.
That being said, adding exceptions won't change anything for tasks with elapsed duration, as I just mentionned. A workaround for removing the oervallocation warning (red guy) would be to change the leveling option (resource ribbon) to month by month.
By default, it is on a daily basis, meaning that the warning will appear as soon as Project detects at least 1 day with an overallocation. Encreasing the granularity to a monthly basis, you'd need to have overallocation at the month level to have the warning.
It might help (or not).
In case it doesn't, I suggest to use standard durations.
Hope this helps,

Inventory management: return material to WH - move from project to stock

Hi guy,
I have this problem.
I created a PO to buy a material at consuming, so I used into the PO the Account Assignment Category "P = Project". After I have created the GR with trx. MIGO and moviment type "101". The sytem generated a material document and an account document (cost VS invoice to receive). After I saved in the system the invoice verification (invoive to receive vs vendor).
The broblem is that not all material that I bought went to the project. Infact I have used only a little part in the project. So now I have to take the rest of material and put them in my WAREHOUSE. (transfer from projet to stock)
Problem: How can do this moviment ? I think I have to use the transaction MIGO ..but what type moviment I have to use?.
I cannot use type.mov. 102, because I have already the invoice and the payment.
I cannot use type.mov. 222, because I don't have GI type 221
Thanks
Roberto

Hi
Pls check ,once if you do GR for a PO with Account assignment P , then after MIGO, it will be consumed against the project, it will not be part of your inventory, Its a Project consumption directly

Some questions about sharing resources, eg via dropbox...

Experts-
I see that one way to share all topics with another RH user is to open the Topics List pod, select all topics, then drag the lot to Resource Manager (eg, the Dropbox folder therein). Is there a way to add images and other non-topic files in a similar way, or do I need to dive into each directory in project files, then select-drag the files to Dropbox?
Is there a way to configure RH such that all new files that are added to a project are automatically copied to Resource Manager so one doesn't have to remember to do this manually?
Is there a way to share resources other than files in the Project Files folder, such as TOC definitions, Index defs, Glossary defs, and the single-source layouts? I see that I can't drag these items to the Dropbox folder. The idea is to be able to have other writers recreate the project on there systems. (Perhaps I'm missing the purpose of Resource Manager. Perhaps duplication of entire projects is best performed using a CMS.)
Thanks!
-Kurt

Sharing topics was not designed for sharing whole projects and that approach will not get the files into Dropbox in the same folders. See the Rh Tour on my site.
What I would do is put the whole project into Dropbox. It is then on your local drive and that of anyone else who is going to access it. This does not permit simultaneous access, you still need source control for that. Also you have to be wary of your Dropbox and that of others being synchronized.

Confused about projects after moving from iPhoto

Hi
I recently moved 13k+ photos and 347 projects from iPhoto to A3 primarily for the better editing capabilities of A3. I shoot for fun , not professionally
i am reading the A3 manual and their screenshots seem to show another structure in place then mine (see image).
basically, under the Projects & Albums, I have a duplication of every project that is seen in the Aperture 3 Library, Projects view i.e. a long list of 347 projects Is this normal?
if so, I think what is confusing me is why the redundancy since in iPhoto, all i used were Events/Projects and keywords to organize and not sure why each project also appears seperately below in the Projects and Albums section
I think I understand smart albums and will create using keywords since albums are just a collection of aliases (correct?) so I can create, delete as needed, just like in iTunes
that being the case, why would I use folders? often one of my projects could consist of multiple activities (ex. vacation which has hiking, camping, water shots, wildlife, etc) so I am not sure how or why I would use folders.
I guess I could have a folder labeled Vacations and stick projects in that or could i just also assign a keyword "vacations" and then I could search for photos that are vacations and wildlife?
If i use folders, then when i import a project, i guess I would need to assign it to a folder?
Also a project could contain multiple folders and albums?
maybe i am confused because there too many choices
thanks for any advice

Yes, now that we can see your your screenshot it is easier to understand what you are asking. Kirby's brief naming essay will have given you already a very good introduction to the library structure, and I am sure he will elaborate on that when he returns to this thread. Just a few additional pointers to the different sections of the Inspector window; for coming from iPhoto you might be puzzled; everything seems to be there twice, which can be confusing.
The upper part of the Inspector panel (With the Heading "Aperture 3 Library and with Projects, Faces, Places, Photos ...) offers different views of your Library: Each view projects (like the vies of a database) the metadata of your images and groups the images in a specific way: in the "Faces View" you can assign names to the faces and browse the images grouped according to persons, in the Places View you assign locations and group according to locations, etc. You use these views for specific tasks.
The lower part, with the headline "Projects & Albums" organizes your storage structure, like Kirby described in his post.
A flat structure with 300 projects at the same level will make the access difficult, even if you use smart albums - for you, and or Aperture as well.
If you think about it, the folder structure is static and created once, when you import your images. That does not need much processing on Aperture's side when you reopen a Aperture Library.
The smart albums are dynamic - computed each time you change or assign a metadata tag. And if your smart albums are defined in the scope of the whole library, then each time you change a keyword all of your library has to be processed. So if you are not too fond of watching the beachball spinning, it is wise to be frugal with the use of smart albums and don't use them for tasks that can easily be solved by the static organisation. Also folders can be used to limit the scope of smart albums - why search for images of grizzlies in your Hawaii projects; if all your Alaska projects are contained in one folder, you can define a smart album of bears inside that folder, and thus avoid searching the anniversary images and other vacation shots.
Bummer - none of the iPhoto keywords seen to have come across
That really is a bummer - how did you import your iPhoto library?
Regards
Léonie
