CProjects and xRPM Testing

Hi All,
What do we do test in cProjects and xRPM? Is it just the navigation and creating the roles, authorizations etc? or do we need to go into the backened (ECC) and validate? can someone throw some idea of testing cProjects. Also if we need to go into the backend, what are the tcodes we need to know? Someone please help me. I am a newbie.
Regards,
Vin

Hi Vinu,
From an end-user perspective, cProjects/xRPM is a pure web-based application. Everything is done in the browser.
Backend transactions are mainly used by:
- system administrators: authorizations, user accounts, monitoring (SU01, PFCG, SM37...)
- technical experts / ABAP developers: SE80, SE11...
- system configuration depending on your architecture and integration: HR module (PPOSE, PP01...), PS (CJ20N, OPSN, OPSI...), CRM... Actually all transactions linked to the corresponding module

CProjects and xRPM integration

Hello Friends,
I am working on portfolio management(xRPM ABAP), i want to integrate capacity management & cost with cProjects.
Could you tell me the settings i needed to do for my reqirement.
Thanks.
Regards,
Senthil.

Hi,
yes, the integration is permanent.
For Example....
During transfer of work centers from Project System to xRPM, teams are created in xRPM for each of the work centre being transferred to xRPM. One can do this from SAP PLM PS by running the report RPM_WRKCNTR_UPLOAD,
which transfers work centers to SAP xRPM and uses them to create team master data. The team name in xRPM is generated using a combination of plant and work center, because the work center ID is only unique within a plant and can be used again in a different plant.
The resources assigned to the work center are used to create the resources assigned to teams in SAP xRPM. The employee IDs of resources in SAP PLM PS are used to search for business partners in SAP xRPM with identicalemployee IDs.
If a match is found, the business partner is added to theteam.
If the SAP PLM PS work center is created using organization units, the employees in the organization unit are derived during the transfer of the work center and used as the basis for creating teams. If new employees are added to the organization after you have run the report, these employees are not included in SAP xRPM system unless you run the program again. For
this reason, you should run the program regularly (for example, weekly) or schedule it for background.
Hope it helps you.
Thanks

Resource planning in cprojects with xRPM or MRS?

Dear Experts,
To my understanding there are four options to perform resource planning in combination with cprojects:
1.     Do a planning in cprojects only
2.     Use resource planning application (RPA) from SAP CRM
3.     Schedule resources with xRPM
4.     Schedule resources with SAP MRS (Multi Resource Scheduling)
I have a couple of questions:
(a) Is it correct that I cannot assign resources to project roles in xRPM based on qualification matching? Is it right that xRPM is used rather for a long-term view to define the available capacity of projects/roles than assigning specific resources to roles?
(b) How can help SAP MRS in comparison to option 1 (planning in cprojects)? I assume that I can do also in cprojects itself a qualification matching. MRS provides a more detailed qualification object to cover complex requirements, right? What else provides MRS what cannot be managed in cprojects itself?
(c ) If we want to use a staffing process were project lead and resource manager doing the staffing and have the option to suggest or reject roles, we have the option to use xRPM or MRS, right? What are the differences? In MRS we have options like using several resource managers, softbooking/hardbooking or itu2019s possible to define the workflow who proposes resources and who is doing the final staffing (project lead or staffing manager), reasons for rejections can be configured etc. Are these options in xRPM available as well?
Thanks,
Angie

Hi Angie,
I have not implemented MRS or RPA so can only answer your first question. You cannot do a resource search via qualification in Portfolio Management (aka xRPM), typically you would do this in Project Management (aka cProjects) and this functionality works fine provided you have maintained qualification data for BP's and roles. Portfolio Management financial planning function can be used for a long term view as you have mentioned. However, it is also typically used to summarize and/or roll up resource demand / assignment to a bucket or portfolio level or summarize resources for multiple projects via initiatives or collections. You can also use a top down approach and at a high level plan values at the bucket level (i.e. forecasted demand or business case demand) and compare against detailed planned / assigned demand rolled up from project management.
Hope this helps.

Lashan

We are planning to go for SAP Netweaver CE 7.1.
(Usage Type : Web As for Java, EP Core & EP)
CE 7.1 is a separate product, you can´t install EP (core) on top of it. If you want to run a portal you need to install Netweaver 7.0.
Kindly route me to some SAP Notes/Docs/Links for Prerequisites/Installation notes/Constraints and provide me
the Latest Versions available of OS: AIX,DB :Oracle & SAP etc..
I´d start with the official installation guides:
http://service.sap.com/instguides
--> SAP NetWeaver
--> SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s)
--> Installation
Media List for SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR3
and

Difference between SAP cProjects and SAP Project System

Hi,
SAP already has a solution PS ( Project System ) for managing the projects in an Organization.
When there is a solution already existing then why did SAP come up with a new solution cProjects ?
Can any help me in understanding the main differences and advantages between cProjects and PS ?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Priyatham

Hi.
I have copied an SAP text below which sets PS, cProjects, (x)RPM and PPM into context.
In the ninties, the Project System was developed within SAP R/3 to provide a powerful application with full integration into logistics and financials.
Target groups were industries such as engineering and construction, automotive, high tech or utilities with focus on project manufacturing or large maintenance projects.
Later on, the need for more flexible and easy-to-use tools supporting the new process methodologies, phased-based approaches, quality gates, and so on, emerged. SAP developed Collaboration Projects and Collaboration Folders (cProjects Suite), which takes these new requirements into account and provides extensive features to collaborate with internal and external partners using a HTML-like interface and Web Application Server technology.
Thus, cProjects was able to address to a broader range of industries, such as service providers, offering a high degree of visibility and flexibility to support various scenarios from product development to consulting projects. Nevertheless, cProjects is seen as a complementary product to Project System, not as ist successor!
It always depends on the scenario that a customer wants to cover, which application is the best choice.
As another matter of fact, combinations of both are also possible.
In addition to this, the new generation of composite applications was born and SAP xApp for Resource and Portfolio Management provides excellent capabilities to align operational project management with strategic portfolio management.
The latest developments bring all these three applications tighter together and offers a comprehensive solution for project and portfolio management by covering logistical, financial and human resource aspects and addressing the needs of all stakeholders throughout the entire organisation.
However, xRPM capabilities are not only restricted to project portfolios but can be leveraged to control all kind of portfolio items.

Unit testing and integration testing

hello 2 all,
what is the diff bet unit and integration testing? in sap what is unit teesting consists of and integration testing consists of what?
is this the work of test engineers r whose work is this?
take care
love ur parents

Hi Sameer,
Unit Testing
A unit test is a procedure used to validate that a particular module of source code is working properly from each modification to the next. The procedure is to write test cases for all functions and methods so that whenever a change causes a regression, it can be quickly identified and fixed. Ideally, each test case is
separate from the others; constructs such as mock objects can assist in separating unit tests. This type of testing is mostly done by the developers and not by end-users.
Integration testing
Integration testing can proceed in a number of different ways, which can be broadly characterized as top down or bottom up. In top down integration testing the high level control routines are tested first, possibly with the middle level control structures present only as stubs. Subprogram stubs were presented in Section 2 as incomplete subprograms which are only present to allow the higher level control routines to be tested. Thus a menu driven program may have the major menu options initially only present as stubs, which merely announce that they have been successfully called, in order to allow the high level menu driver to be tested.
Top down testing can proceed in a depth-first or a breadth-first manner. For depth-first integration each module is tested in increasing detail, replacing more and more levels of detail with actual code rather than stubs. Alternatively breadth-first would proceed by refining all the modules at the same level of control
throughout the application. In practice a combination of the two techniques would be used. At the initial stages all the modules might be only partly functional, possibly being implemented only to deal with non-erroneous data. These would be tested in breadth-first manner, but over a period of time each would be
replaced with successive refinements which were closer to the full functionality. This allows depth-first testing of a module to be performed simultaneously with breadth-first testing of all the modules.The other major category of integration testing is bottom up integration testing where an individual module is
tested from a test harness. Once a set of individual modules have been tested they are then combined into a collection of modules, known as builds, which are then tested by a second test harness. This process can continue until the build consists of the entire application.
In practice a combination of top-down and bottom-up testing would be used. In a large software project being developed by a number of sub-teams, or a smaller project where different modules were being built by individuals. The sub-teams or individuals would conduct bottom-up testing of the modules which they were
constructing before releasing them to an integration team which would assemble them together for top-down testing.
I think this will help.
Thanks ,
Saptarshi

Unit Testing and Integrating testing In HR

Dear Sap Gurus,
Would you be kind enough to give me an example of unit testing and integrating testing?? what do you test, eg..TC and what else.. what happened.??. And also an example of Integrating testing ..and an example ....I know what unit and integrating test is ..and with a good example, i will have a great idea about it ...thanks a lot.

Hi Pooja
Unit Testing:
A process for verifying that software, a system, or a system component performs its intended functions.
Unit transactions are tested against their own specifications and design documents.
Integration Testing
An orderly progression of testing in which software elements, hardware elements or both are combined and tested until the entire system has been integrated.
Integration tests deal mainly with the testing of cross-application process chains in addition to transactions and business processes. The process models and the test cases derived from these form the basis of these tests.

Unit testing, integration and functional testing

Hello all,
I would like to know the difference between Unit testing, integration and functional testing. And also what are the testing tools that are more commonly used?
Thanks,
Maxx

Hi,
    Unit testing :
                A complete cycle of each module will be tested
                ie for PP Right from requirements to planned orders /production orders
                confirmation .
    Integration testing:
                Here cross module testing will be carried out.
                 ie PP and MM integration
                    After confirming production order a GR is made /billing is carried out
                    and delivered.
      Functional testing:
                This testing is carried out to see whether the system can with stand l the loads during processing by users.
                Stress test and volume test.

Difference between unit testing and integration testing

What is the difference between unit testing and integration testing in SAP? Is unit testing takes place in Dev client and integration testing takes place in QA system?
Please clarify
thanks

Hello Krishen,
unit testing means veryfiingsmall / the smallet pieces of software, while integration testing checks the overall functionality of applications. Within the AS ABAP the tool ECATT + manual tests is used for integration tests and the ABAP Unit language integration for unit testing.
When, Who, Where tests are carried out is ultimately a personal decision. As unit tests are operate even under heavy development they are often the first choice for developers, but the unit tests can also serve for regression tests over a long period. Integration tests tend too be created and executed in later stages as they require often a certain majurity of the software under test.
Beside the mentioned links you may check out ABAP Unit infos also in the Wiki.

The images imported to my stage turn up as blank and render every image previous to the rogue imported image as red squares that fill the perimeters of the image which then renders the publishing and scene testing features in flash useless, what can i do

I have been working on animating a scene in flash for a few weeks and recently I have encountered a problem with importing my images on to the stage where the images I import do not turn up, however the key frame that I attempted to import the image onto shows that it is occupied by an image and every frame previous to the key frame that just imported an image that does not show turns up as a red square that fills the original perimeters of the image, there is no solution to this problem any where on the forum and the adobe technical support staff will not help me find a solution to this problem what can I do to get Flash running normally again and fix this problem?????
Also after the first time i publish a preview after i begin using flash, flash renders the publishing and scene testing features as useless and claims that there is no HTML template found, or if the images if i import any images onto the stage that come up blank and render every image previous to that image as a red square and then try and publish a preview flash renders the publishing and scene testing features as useless and claims that there is no HTML template found. What can I do to fix this problem??? there is no solution on the web anywhere to this problem either.

I don't know if Flash has a memory limit of its own. The memory for your Flash file is based on the available memory on your computer.
There is a limit on the number of frames that you can have in any given timeline. I think that it's about 15000 frames, but that's a guess. Flash does all of its work at runtime, this means that no part of your animation is pre-compiled like it is in a video file. So the more objects that you have on the stage, the more work Flash has to do. It follows that the more objects that there are to animate, the more work your processor and the video card have to do.
Here's a list of articles on memory management that might be useful:

When do u go for elementary test and combined test(rsrv)

hi all,
Can anyone explain me with an realtime scenario ? when do we go for elementary test in rsrv trns code and combined test.
thanxs
hari

hi hari,
RSRV is used for analysis and repair of all BW objects.You can perform consistency checks on the data and metadata stored in BW System.RSRV tests the foriegn key relationships between the individual tables of the enhanced starschema of the BW system
There are 2 types of tests
1.Elementary Tests- these tests are related to master data,transaction data,ODS objects,Hierarchies.database(indices,parametres,statistics),aggregates,PSA tables and documents.
2.Combined Tests-This test determines which elementary tests are performed according to the parametres entered.
Hope this helps!

VI Analyzer Front Panel Size and Postion Test fails

Hi
We make a lot of use of the VI Analyser and I have been playing with the configuration settings to try and make it only fail the tests that matter to us and I have one test I do not understand correctly.
From the LabVIEW help
Panel Size and Position—Checks that a front panel
completely resides within the bounds of the screen. The test also checks whether
the front panel is larger than the maximum specified width and height. If you
are using a multi-monitor system, the test fails if the panel does not reside
entirely within the bounds of the primary monitor. This test works only on
standard, control, and global VIs.
I would like to apply this test, a simple check developers are not creating huge VI, it sounds simple enough, but I cannot seem to get this test to pass.
I am working with two monitors and this test fails when my VI is on either monitor with the message "This VI's front panel does not reside entirely within the specified bounds (1280 x 1024)" my current screen resolutionis 1280 x 1024, so I assume as long as my VI front panel fits within one screen it should be a pass.
I can clearly see my that VI front panel (and block diagram for that matter) fits within the screen of either monitor. If I look at the VI properties of my VI the Window Size is 474 x 513, could anybody please suggest when why this might be failing.
cheers

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Norbert,
Thanks for the prompt reply, my asking the question and your reply has made me play with this a little deeper and I have managed to solve my problem.
In case anyone else has a similar problem here are the details.
When you have two monitors and look at the Windows properites you see one monitor is identified as 1 and the other as 2, thses identities are based on the graphics card and the which monitor is plugged into which ouptput connector. You can then chose which monitor you wish to act as your primary monitor. You would suspect it would not matter once you have selected your primary monitor BUT IT DOES.
My inital set-up
Left Hand Monitor    - idenity 2 selected to be primary monitor
Right Hand Monitor - identiy 1
With this set-up everything looks and acts as I expect it to task bar, icons etc on my primarry monitor. However if you run the VI Analyser it will fail Panel Size and Position on BOTH the left and right hand monitors.
I crawlled under my desk and swapped the monitors cables round so now the set-up is
Left Hand Monitor    - idenity 1 selected to be primary monitor
Right Hand Monitor - identiy 2
Now the VI Analysers Panel Size & Position Tests will pass on the left hand monitor but fail on the right hand monitor, just as would expect.
It appears that LabVIEW is looking not only at the windows "Primary Monitor" setting but also the identies, this does not seem the behaviour I would expect nor the correct behaviour.
cheers

Interface and conversion testing of SAP environments with Master Data

Hi guy's
Please let me know if some one of you know about SAP Conversion Project. Below you have more description:
- testing of Interfaces from Legacy Systems
- testing of conversion programs used in the conversion or transposition of data from legacy systems
- data cleansing activities associated with conversion
- identify and populate various SAP environments with Master Data necessary for both conversion and interface testing
Any detail info in that and what kind of knowledge you need to have in some of project will be useful.
Thanks in advance

Hi Yannick,
I am trying to do the exact same thing. Have you gotten any further on this issue?

Xmonad, xorg 1.9, and catalyst-test

Hi guys,
I'm running xorg 1.9 and catalyst-test on my HP Envy 15 (which contains a Radeon Mobility 5830.) Almost everything works; nothing strange appears in /var/log/Xorg.log or glxinfo. It's clear that my hardware acceleration is fine because I'm getting 200+ FPS in Extreme Tux Racer.
However, xmonad, of all things, is super-slow. When I switch workspaces or spawn tiled windows, the redraw lag is quite visible and I can see my CPU spike.
Amid other reports of X problems, I tried installing the backclear/catalyst-maximize-fix xserver packages from the catalyst repository, but those didn't seem to help. I also tried flipping the bit to enable XAA 2D acceleration, and that didn't seem to help either.
Any ideas as to why X doesn't seem to be accelerating this properly?

Yeeees, catalyst isn't supporting xserver 1.10 atm. Maybe 11.3 will support it, maybe.
Workaround is to:
- add xorg-server-* and xf86-input-* packages which you installed into pacman.conf's IgnorePkg list
- OR use [xorg19] repo - read wiki .

Your problem sounds similar to this one, except that they're using software raid rather than just pure LVM. If you're using an initrd, you may not have the appropriate modules installed. If you're not using an initrd, then the kernel probably needs LVM support compiled in (not as a module) and could be solved by fixing that. I have never used the ck-patchset, but this should give you an additional data point.
Also comment=systemd.automount will be deprecated soon as I understand it; if you have a need for automounting, x-systemd.automount should be used instead.
