COPA Planning Framework(KEPM) valuate system

How the COPA Plannign Framework(Tcode KEPM) works?
Where they pull out the figure or value fields? How the system will work?

You define planning levels , planning package, and planning method. This then allows you to enter your plan data into COPA. It can be used to calculate and distribute plan data too. The set up uses value fields and characteristics from COPA.

COPA Planning Framework

Dear Experts,
       I am doing COPA Planning Framework.
First Step: Created Planning Level as Co.Code Sales Plan.
Second Step: Created Planning Package as Co.Code Sales Plan for 2010.
Now I am trying to create Planning method. But system automatically showing that Planning Level as Planning Method.
Why it is like that?
Then Should I need to create directly the Parameter Set?
Pls correct me.....

Balaji Bhonsle..

Hi Balaji ,
A planning layout consists of a header area and the lead and data columns
Header Area
One or more rows make up the header area of a planning layout. These rows display the global selection criteria for all the plan data that is displayed, or to be entered in the layout. The characteristic values in the header area (for example version, fiscal year) move within the limits that are set by the selection criteria in the planning package or level. They are valid for the entire planning layout. The header area can contain only characteristics, that is, no key figures. You can also build planning layouts that do not contain header areas. Usually, however, this will only be appropriate when you use very few characteristics and especially when very few combinations can be formed from the characteristic values. Otherwise, the layout will contain either very many columns or very many rows..
Lead Columns,
The lead columns determine what the plan data displayed in the data columns refers to:
If you display key figures in the data columns, then the lead column shows which characteristic values (or which combination of characteristic values) the plan data in the data columns refers to.
If you display key figures in the lead column, then the lead column contains a list of all the key figures used in the layout. This means that each row in the data column contains the plan data for the key figure listed in the lead column.
Each planning layout must have at least one lead column.
Suppose Report is
Fiscal Year                   Revenue
2010                                500
Then fiscal Year will become lead colums ...

COPA planning

Hi
Currenlty we do COPA planning through KEPM but we have an issue, previously the plan values for revenue, cost of goods sold freight charges etc were determined in the same way by the same distribution key, however, we want to plan the revenue for each period in the year a different way, therfore we want ot use a different distribution key. So I created two different planning parameters sets one for the cost of goods sold and freight with one type of planning layout and distribution key and then I created another parameter set for the revenue and used a different planning layout and distribution key. These posted how I wanted them to, however they posted into different COPA planning documents. Is there a way I can incorporate them into the same planning document but with different distribution keys, because when you look at the line item you now get two line items in planning.
please advise
thanks

Hi
You need to have 12 columns in your Plan Layout so that you can enter Plan values for each month in one go... You shoudl npt be concerned about the no of docs that the system would generate...
You would analyse Plan Vs Actual in KE30 reports which is a summarized report.... Hence, in my opinion, dont press too much on the no of docs generated in the process
If you generate 2 docs in another versoin and then copy to Version 0, you would end up generating even more no of docs

COPA - Planned Material Cost not appearing in KE30 report

Hi all
In COPA planning, I manually planned the Material cost (Material External Price) along with the Sales Quantity and Revenue for two company codes (one plant in each co code). But in KE30 report, I could see the material cost (MEP) values only for one company codeplant. What could be the issue?
I even tried valuation in KEPM. Valuation step is calculating and populating the material cost in KEPM, but the values are not flowing to KE30 reports. And this happens to only one of the two company codes.
Thanks
Vamsi

Hi Vamsi
Please check table CE2XXXX, where XXXX = Op Concern.... Here, can you see the plan line items??
If yes, then the issue is with your report definition in KE30... May be you are restricting values display in KE30 report by virtue of your selection parameters

COPA Plan values not appearing in report

Hi
I posted COPA Plan values using KEPM and line items are appearing in KE25 but no values are not being appeared in COPA line item report we created using report painter. We used KE94 and KE91.
Actual values appearing correctly in report.
Any help??

Check if you have Plan/Act indicator maintained correctly with the plan value. If it shows up in other reports, I don't see any reason why it will not show up here. I would also check other parameters entered in the report and see if any other characteristic is preventing plan values from populating.

Budget and Target COPA Planning tables

Dear All
I started to use SAP .Net Connector 3 with VS2010.
I want to get the Budget and Target from SAP tables it all reside in COPA planning.
The TCode = “KEPM”.

Almost all .NET Connector work begins with finding the right RFC-enabled BAPI to call. In your case, this is most likely BAPI_COPAPLANNING_GETDATA. From that point, please refer to the tutorials available for invoking this function module from your C# or VB code.

COPA Planning to Profit Center Accounting

Hi,
We are using ECC 6.0.
When we do COPA planning and transfer the values of COPA to Profit Center, no data has been transfered to profit center plan items.
We have not activated Planning version of Classic Profit Center Accounting. Is it required for ECC 6.0 also to activate Classic Profit Center Accoutning?
We have Mapped requisit Value fields of COPA to GL Accounts.
Can any one guide us in this regard.
Thanks in Advance
Sudhakar

Hi,
In COPA the planning has been done to the value field of PRCTR which represents Profit center. Through report forms the actual and plan data for the value fields can be derived in COPA itself. I dont think that the planned values can be transferred to profit center accouting. On the other hand the actuals of profit center with the same value fields can be derived in COPA.
Assign points if its useful

COPA Planning Module on R/3 side and update to BW

For some record types we are using the COPA Planning Module on R/3 to "upload" to COPA. Running COPA reports in R/3 these record types show up. In BW, the dataloads are not picking these record types up.
So my question:
What has to happen on the R/3 side, when using the COPA planning module, to "upload/update" these records so BW recognizes them?
Thanks, Mark.

Anyone have any ideas?

COPA plan version

Currently, only version 0 is used for actuals and plan. Again this year we have used version 0 for cost center planning, profit center planning and also COPA planning. The user community would like to create a new version for COPA planning only to upload new data. Can I have a different plan version # for COPA only for this year? If so, how do I do that? Does it impact the other areas of planning?
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Did you checked infoobject 0version??
Just check it
I think it is of char 1.
Thanks

How to Transport a planning book to another system

Hello,
Can someone please let me know how to transport a planning book to another system?
Thanks for your time.
Sarath.

Dear Sarath,
Transporting Macro Books:
You can add macro books to a transport request so that they are transported to the target system(s) when the request is released. When you transport a macro book, the system exports relevant notes directly to the target system. For this, you must specify the relevant RFC destination.
To be able to use macro books in another system, you need to have already exported other objects such as the relevant planning object structures and planning areas to the target system. You do this in Customizing for Demand Planning or Supply Network Planning under Basic Settings -> Maintain Manual Transport Link for DP/SNP. You can also use this activity to transport macro books. If the planning area does not exist in the target system, you can transport the macro book, but you cannot open the macro book or use the macros.
To transport a macro book, select the book and choose Tools -> Transport Macro Books. On the dialog box that appears, enter an existing transport request or create new one. The transport request determines the system to which the macro book is transported. Choose Enter.
Regards,
Naveen.

Is it possible to initialise COPA deltas to multiple BIW systems?

Hi Experts
I wish to load COPA data to our BWD system in parallel with our BWP system from our Production R/3. Is this possible?
If I do an Initialisation without Data Transfer from the BWD, which timestamp will it start with for the BWD deltas? I expect that Initialisation without Data Transfer will set the starting timestamp for following deltas at the first record in R3 that satisfies my selection criteria.
Is this correct, and can it be done without upsetting the timestamp administration of the usual deltas to BWP?
Any advice would be appreciated - points forthcoming.
thanks
tony

Hello,
Yes it is possible to do that, you will see a third column in rsa7 with bw system.
Take a look at this note:
OSS Note 775568 'Two and more BW systems against one OLTP system'.
But if you execute it in parallel you can face with this:
"If delta initialization requests run from several BW systems in parallel, the time stamp pointer of the delta administration that is set at the end of the first delta initialization is overwritten by the second one. This may result in data that was already extracted in the delta initialization appearing in the subsequent delta from the first BW system."

Jorge Diogo
