Create iPPE data in APO

Hi everybody,
We have ECC 6.0 system and implementing APO 5.0. We realized that Model Mix Planning meets the production planning requirements. However, we do not have DI system (which uses iPPE data).
Is it possible to create iPPE data directly in APO manually without transferring from DIMP system, and then planning using MMP in APO, and transferring these planned orders to R/3. I read the note below in help.sap.com. According to this note, it is possible to create iPPE in APO. Then can we say that we can use iPPE data with standard R/3 system (i.e. not a DIMP system)?
Prerequisites for "Generating Production Data Structures (PDS) from iPPE Data ":
1)You have transferred the iPPE data from the DIMP system via the Core Interface in SAP APO, <i><b>or created iPPE master data in SAP APO</b></i> and maintained production versions.
2)You have checked the data in the DIMP system with the iPPE consistency check.
Thanks in advance.

am not sure if you want to know just where it is created.havent tried creating it manually in APO so am not sure of the issues
you should see the transactions related to this under "masterdata" from the user menu
/sapapo/ppe to start with
this helps describes a bit more

Idoc file to create master data in APO

Hi Experts,
I will be getting an idoc file let say zmatmas02 its extended idoc type with extended segments
i need to upload this file into an APO system
can i use the program RSEINB00 to upload the idoc file , if so what are the steps i need to do,
or do i need to write a custom program with bapi BAPI_PRDSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2 that can upload the data to material master .
I would like to know how to read the idoc file and split and post to the above bapi is my question.
can you pls give me a sample program in both cases .
thank you very much in advance
valid answers surly be rewarded .
Thanks,
Srini.

Hello,
BOM means BIll of Materials you should create materials first and then you have to create BOM where for a finished material you will have set of semi finished or Raw materials as components.
Example: If you are material of finished is CAR then you will have different components for the same like Engine,Tyers etc.
Means your Header material is CAR and component materials are Engine.
Below are the transactions for creation of the same.
Step 1: Material Master
Logistics > Production > Master Data > Material Master > Material > Create General > Immediately MM01
Step 2: BOM creation
Logistics > Production > Master Data > Bills of Material > Bills of Material > Material BOM > Create CS01
Step 3: Work Center creation
Logistics > Production > Master Data > Work Center > ( New Screen ) Work Center > Create CR01
Step 4: Route creation
Logistics > Production > Master Data > Routings > Routings > Routing > Create CA01
For Routing you need to have a work center defined as Routing is set of operations that you perform on the material to obtain the finished material.
Hope the information is useful
Regards

Impact of PR created in ECC from APO

Hi,
there are 2 systems, ECC1 and ECC2. now , Purchase requisition is created in ECC1 and transferred to ECC2 through idoc messages.
but the process is changed and instead of PR created in ECC1 , APO creates the PR and transferred to ECC2.
Now , my job is to analyse the impact of PR created from APO.
what would be the impact and are there any side eefects of this ?
Raghu

Raghu,
Based on the business requirements stated up until now, it is unclear what business processes will be performed in which systems, and what data must be maintained in each of the 3 systems.
So, a direct answer to the latest post.
If you create PRs in APO, and transfer to ECC2, the implication is that all data required for the creation of PRs must first exist in APO. This means all master data, and enough transactional data to support PR creation, and configuraton to support planning (you haven't stated if you intend to perform planning in APO, but I will assume this is the case).
If you thereafter treat ECC2 and APO as the primary OLTP-Planning combination, then there are no special implications. You can establish 2-way CIF between this pair, and, as far as APO is concerned, you can 'pretend' that ECC1 does not exist. The sole source of Master and Transactional data in APO would then be ECC2.
If it is necessary to continue to exchage some data between ECC1 and ECC2, I would suggest that you continue to use IDOCs, and do not attempt to connect ECC1 to APO. In addition, my opinion is that you should evaluate, 'is it still necessary to retain 2 ECC systems?'
You ask about the impact of creating a PO in ECC1 without the benefit of a PR. That totally depends on what you intend to do with the PO in ECC1. Technically, SAP supports the creation of POs directly, without reference to PR. However, without knowing your entire business cycles (eg, order-to-cash, plan-to-execute, and procure-to-pay) I can't tell you if you will run into problems.

Extract data from APO to BW

Hi Team,
APO is very new for me.
My requirement is:
I need to extract Sales Data from APO system to BW system.
It would be great, if you can please provide me step by step process for this.
Thanks & Regards,
Vipin

Hi Vipin,
Its the same steps that you need to follow as when you do a R/3 extraction in BI/BW. Proabaly the datasource names might being with '8' ie if there is an object by name '0MATERIAL' in APO which is going to form a source for BW then in RSA5 you need to look for the datasource name '80MATERIAL'. Then follow the steps below:
1. in the APO system, Goto RSA5, Choose the Datasources related to sales and activate it.
2. Goto RSA3 and check the extractor, when you have to specify the client name give the name of the BI client and extract.
3. In the BI/BW system, goto Source system and choose the name of the APO client and then do a check to see if there is a valid RFC connectivity.
4. Goto Datasources and choose the source system to be the APO client and replicate the datasources.
5. The datasource will be visible now, create an infopackage and do the normal process from there to do the data load to any target.
Make sure the target is active and then do the DTP to get the data from APO to BW system.
Thanks

Sending New Requirement date to APO before saving the sales order in ECC

Hi Experts,
i have a requirement where while creation of sales order, when user enters the requirement date,i have to calculate the new requirement date ( adding transit time and other time ) and send it to APO , to bring the ATP result based on this new calculated date.
This new calculated date is getting saved in Z field in VBAP table and also this new requirement date which has to be pass to APO is getting calculated while saving the doucment i.e. at user exit - USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE.
Now, i am not sure, how i should pass this new date to APO , which FM , Badi or BAPI would be used ?
Please help and let me know if i am supposed to detailed it a little more.
Thanks.

Hi Bharat,
Normally the new calculated requirement/delivery date will be updated in APO through the CIF.
However you can influence the transfer with enhancement CIFSLS03 (influence sales-order-specific data directly before it is sent to SAP APO available on ECC side).
Please see the below description.
Thanks.
Regards, Marius
In this enhancement, you can transfer customer-order-specific data to SAP
APO.
The associated component EXIT_SAPLCSLS_002 provides you with tables that are
required for the transfer. In particular, these are:
Requirements table ET_SL_REQ
Item table ET_SL_DOC
Field catalog ET_ATPFIELD
You can use this exit to create or change documents in the ERP system as well
as for the initial data transfer.
The data is transferred to SAP APO after this exit is called.
Notes
If you use program /SAPAPO/CIF_DELTAREPORT3, you have to add the
corresponding logic to function module EXIT_SAPLCID3_001. For more information,
see the documentation for
enhancement CIFCID3.
Programs /SAPAPO/CIF_DELTAREPORT and /SAPAPO/CIF_DELTAREPORT2 also run this
exit.

Error taking data from APO data source

Hi,
We have created a planning area in the APO system using the t-code /SAP/APO/MSDP_ADMN.
We have generated a "export data source" and the data source 9ADA_3 has been created and it was replicated from APO to BI system. We have created the transformations and DTP, to load the data to Cube(Direct Access DTP).
But when we are executing the infopackage(Full update) we get the error "8 when starting the extraction program.Error in the source system".
The datasource is active in both BI and APO (ROOSOURCE table)system.
The RFC connection was checked and it was fine.
The cube is active. The background job is running fine and finishing without any error.
We have checked data in APO system via RSA3 tcode the data is available over there.
Please let me know what could be the error for the same.
Regards,
Lakshminarasimhan.N

please check a couple of things
1) The RFC connection is active between BI and APO
2) The user ID and password are correct and the authorization trace in SM59 works fine (most likely this is the case)
3) Check the short dump on APO for any additional info

CIFing the data from APO to ECC

Hi - I know how to CIFing the data from ECC to APO. But i would like to know how to transfer the data from APO to ECC.I also would like to know how to debug the code...I see some of the questions in this forum on CIF debugging, but they are all CIFing the data from ECC to APO, but i need the other way around ( APO to ECC )
Could anyone provide me the detail steps to CIF debugging ?
I really appreciate your help.

Hi
What kind of data do you want to transfer from APO to ECC ? Lets say you want to transfer live cache reqs generated by APO to R/3 and create firmed reqs , then the following are the prerequisites
1. Make the publication setting /n/sapapo/cp1 as mentioned by DB
2. Make sure the material -plant for which you want to transfer reqs is active in the PO/ Preq integration model in R/3
3. In APO /n/sapapo/sdp110 make sure the transfer setting is set to immediate.
Once all this is done , you dont have to do anything manually. The reqs will get transferred to R/3 automatically.
Also we have to transfer master data from R/3 to APO since R/3 is the master and i dont think it is possible to do the opposite - transfer of master data from APO- R/3 (no standard tool available) . Also we generally transfer only live cache reqs and PIR's (demand plan) back to R/3 . For PIR's you need to use the transfer profile.
Thanks

How to extract data from APO to BW(not APO's BW)

Hi, expert.
Now I want to extract data from APO to BW (not APO's), what's the data flow.
1. APO datasource----->BW (not APO's) datasource----->BW (not APO's) infocoube
2.APO datasource----
>BW (APO's) -
>BW (not APO's)
I want to create query on the BW not APO's.
Which one is right? or there is another way?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Bruce,
If I understand your question correctly your scenario 1 comes closest to a solution:
1) Create/activate Datasource in APO system and test it using tcode RSA3 (assuming it is SAP APO)
2) Replicate the Datasource in BW + create infopackage which will load the data into PSA
3) Create a DSO (if you like a layered approach) and a Cube on top + a Multiprovider above
4) Connect BW Datasource to DSO and DSO to cube (Transformations + DTPs to load)
5) Create a query on the Multiprovider
Hope this helps.

Clarification on details regarding getting data from APO into BW

Hi Friends,
I need some clarification in terms of getting data from APO into BW for reporting:
I observed that SAP has provided standard data flows for PPDS module, where as for the Demand Planning and Supply Network Planning SAP has just provided some standard InfoCubes ex: 0APO_C07, 0APO_C10, 0APO_C11, 0APO_C12.
Which makes me believe that for Demand Planning and Supply Network Planning we need to generate DataSources from the Planning books in DP & SNP and build our own custom data flows. In that case what is the use of above mentioned InfoCubes provided by SAP?
Also in my current project the client has built a custom DataSource on top of a Planning Book in DP and created custom data flow in BW for reporting and also created a Back up cube in APO.
My question on this is, what is the use of this Back up cube in APO, what is the need to maintain two same cubes in two different systems?
My next question is, I have installed complete data flow for 0APO_C02 (Orders Data) in BW and loaded data. In SAP documentation it says when we try to load data for a particular date range using this InfoSource (0APO_PPDS_ORDER_01), it directly loads data from the live cache.
Is there a way to know if the data is coming from Live Cache or from APO server, can we get data from live cache for 9A*** Datasources also, which we create on planning books in DP and SNP?
Any comments and Info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Sunitha, thanks for your inputs. So does that mean for Demand Planning and Supply Network Planning, SAP has not given any standard DataSources because it makes more sense to build DataSources from the planning books as each company has their own planning strategies based on how they do there business. Right?
And for these modules there is no other way rather than generating DataSources from Planning Books and build the Data Flows based on it. Right?
Also these generated DataSources i.e. 9A**** pull data from live cache itself right or is there any setting that we need to enable for it to get data from live cache?
Thanks again for your valuable inputs hope to get answers to above questions as well.

Creating new Data Source Error - Database connection Failed

Successfully installed and configured 11.1.1.3.0. Planning and Essbase dev.
Went to Workspace > Administer > Classing Planning Administration > Manage Data Sources > Create Data Source.
Entered all info about the application database , etc. Getting error "The database connection failed" (I was able to connect with no problem during the install)
SQL server 2005 is on the same physical server.
The diagnostic tool shows database connection passed for planning. A new database was created for the new application.
The server event viewer shows these errors.
"Login failed for user 'xxx-hyperion'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection."
Group Policy Error "The client-side extension could not apply computer policy settings for 'Default Domain Policy {xxx}' because it failed with error code '0x80070003 The system cannot find the path specified.' See trace file for more details. "
The Group Policy client-side extension Group Policy Services failed to execute. Please look for any errors reported earlier by that extension.
Any help is appreciated.

Datasource for the application.
I have created a sql db for this planning application (my datasource). See my first message for more details.
When you create a new planning application, you need to associate it with a data source. Since this is a new install, I don't have any data sources available yet.
So, "To create, edit or delete data sources, click Manage Data Source."
This page lets you validate your connection to the database and essbase server. My essbase server connection validates! The database connection does not validate after I enter all the relevant information.
SCREEN INFO BELOW
Fields displayed with an asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Data Source Name *:
Data Source Description:
Select Database Platform
Microsoft SQL Server
Application Database
Server * :
Port * :
Database *:
User *:
Password *:
Click "Validate Database Connection"
ERROR ---> Database connection failed.
So it does not let me create a data source for my new planning application, so I cannot create a new planning application.
Thanks in advance.

Fields missing while creating the data source

Hi All
I am using a third party system to pull data in to BI...Actually there was one table where from the other end they had added 2 fields recently...when i checked in development i was able to create the data source for the table along with the new fields..but when i check it in production those newly added 2 fields are missing .. though i am able to see the old fields in the data source the newly added fields are missing..so is there any problem with the refreshment of the table or should we reastart the connection?
Can any one please let me know a solution for this...
Regards
Shilpa

HI,
Are you having connectivity like this
BI Dev
BI QA ---> All Three connected to same 3 rd party system
BI Prod
If yes, If it is R3 replicate datasource will help.
Incase of third party system you need to regenerate the datasource.
if it is DB Connect try to go to the source system and connect to database table from BI side and at the top you will have
generate datasource. use that option you will be able to solve.
Else
BI Dev - 3rd party dev
BI prod - 3rd party prod
Try to add 2 new fields in the 3rd party system and generate the datasource as told above.
Thanks

How to create a data load file from Excel !!!

Hi All,
I'm new to HFM and would like to load data into an HFM application. As I have an Excel file with all the data. When I'm directly loading the data it throws an error saying "No section has been specified to determine if this is data, description or line item detail". How can I convert this excel file into proper format (.dat) file understandable by HFM ?

There are several ways to get this data into HFM.
1) FDM - best option if you have it
2) Webforms/Data Grids
3) HsSetValue formulas in Excel
4) DAT file loads
5) JVs, etc
If you wish to use DAT files created via Excel, you will likely want to use Excel VBA macros to create your DAT file to load. We do this on occasion for special projects and it works quite well. What you can do is set up an Excel file with your data inputs to look however you want, then link your POV members and amounts to another tab (we commonly call this the Export tab and it is set up in an HFM-friendly format).
Create a macro to write a DAT file to a specified location using data from the Export tab. The DAT file will need to be formatted as below. For a specific sample, you can extract data from your HFM app and see the format.
!Data
Scenario;Year;Period;View;Entity;Value;Account;ICP;Custom1;Custom2;Custom3;Custom4;Amount
Scenario;Year;Period;View;Entity;Value;Account;ICP;Custom1;Custom2;Custom3;Custom4;Amount
Scenario;Year;Period;View;Entity;Value;Account;ICP;Custom1;Custom2;Custom3;Custom4;Amount
Scenario;Year;Period;View;Entity;Value;Account;ICP;Custom1;Custom2;Custom3;Custom4;Amount
Scenario;Year;Period;View;Entity;Value;Account;ICP;Custom1;Custom2;Custom3;Custom4;Amount
Brush up on Replace, Merge, or Accumulate load options in the HFM Admin and User Guides, then upload your new DAT file.

How to create a date range in Web Application Designer

I am using 3.1 version of Web App Designer. I need to create a report with date ranges. I can get one date to work but not two (I need a start date and end Date). My Query has 0CALMONTH with a variable for Interval. When I select it as a dropdown (??) in Web App Designer, I only get one date prompt in web app designer.
Any suggestions??
Thanks

See Lorna...it's almost second nature to you now,
editing those js files! I TOLD you you could do it!
Mark, it's EERIE that you should say this to me today because this is exactly what I have been thinking! I can put a song on a page with one eye shut now, and I can zip around those files pretty well (except for the recent fiasco where I didn't even look at the right folder). I also notice that the level of my writing is sounding more technical and familiar with digital world jargon. I remember how you told me I could do it, and you were right. You all were right and I feel more knowledgeable and at a point where I suspect that I can take steps on my own. HTML is a strange land, but just being able to edit that .js file and FIND it by navigating for it in Text Edit has made me feel much more competent.
Before iWeb I didn't realize what Text Edit was for. I used it to take quick fast short notes. I never understood that concept of "opening something up in so and so application." The first time I clicked OPEN in Text Edit, and I saw all those danged files staring at me with beady eyes, I wanted to throw a white hanky and run for the hills. Not any more!
