Creating a Balanced Scorecard

Hi,
We are looking for documentation on how to create a Balanced Scorecard using SEM-CPM. We've done the configuration but can't find good documentation on how a user would actually go about creating Organization Goals in the Balanced Scorecard.
Any information would be appreciated!
Mary Ann Kolnik

Hello,
In the scorecard, you will have to determine Strategies that will be derived following some Perspectives (eg. financial,customer,...).
Those Perspectives will contain different Objectives. To measure if these objectives are reached or not, you will have to assign to it some KPI/indicators/Measures or Initiatives.
Each of these levels gives a status icon and a "score" that will give you an quick overview of your company's strategy results.
The scorecard method as been explained by R.Kaplan and D. Norton.For more info about it see :

SEM-CPM Balanced Scorecard and time-variant results/scores

Hi everyone!
I have successfully created a basic Balanced Scorecard with SAP SEM 4.0. By configuring the "Value Fields" and using "Formula Result-Score Assignment", I have specified which results are equivilant to what score. As an example, a have defined that a process cycle time of 25 minutes is equivilant to a score value of 85 (out of 100) and a process cycle time of 20 minutes is equivilant to a score value of 100.
Since I want to use my Balanced Scorecard for strategic planning (along with SEM/BW-BPS), I want these result-score assignments to vary of the upcoming period. As an example, in 6 months time a process cycle time of 20 minutes should be a score of 100 (as above). But since I want to improve my operational performance, in 12 months time a cycle time of 17 should be 100 (as my process cycle time should have improved by then). In other words, my planning targets should be dynamic (depending on time) and not only static (always the same).
My question is now, how can I define different Result-Score Assignment (in other words: goals/targets) for different time horizons? Can I do that with integrating SEM/BW-BPS?
Best regards, Daniel

2) Now, I am creating a Measure in UMK_MB and in Datasource tab, when i assgin a Value field..the RFC Connection and Infoprovider and Report is not coming. (i have created a Value Field at umc_cpm_strat..and i checked the RFC connection also which supposed to be local system only.)
Can any body throw light on linkage between measure builder and Infoproviders(Transactional One)?
I have some Questions regarding CPM-BSC asked by users to me
1) Can initiatives be set with Measure?

Balanced Scorecard Documentation

My client is on R11.5.9 and would like to implement Balanced Scorecard. The most current version of the Install, User & Admin Guides we can find on CD or Online is for R11.5.6, and the User and Install Guides in both places get errors when you try to read them. Is the documentation for R11.5.6 the most current available (meaning the app has not been updated since then)?
If the R11.5.6 documentation is the most current, where can I get readable PDF files...if there is more current documentation for R11.5.7, R11.5.8 and/or R11.5.9, where can I get readable PDF files for that release?
Thanks!

Hi Wim - is that you?,
Anyway - Hello Mr Double U,
We are very happy that you found this floorplan useful.
The example use case on Page 4 was realised by 4 tables overlaid on 4 forms (you can overlay tables on forms in layout mode then send to back/send to front similar to powerpoint layout)
The arrows and red/green images are called conditional icons. When you create each table (fed by a BI query) you should include 2 extra columns for these 2 images. Within the definition of the column you can define the condition e.g. if Sales > x then show green light, if sales <x show red light etc. The trend icon works in a smilar way. It is easier if the BI Query itself delivers a "trend score" e.g. % change from one period to the next. Then the trend icon in VC can be made conditional on this trend score.
Hope that helps.
Thank you and Kind Regards,
Mark Heff

Balanced Scorecard : Y axis should specify appropriate units !!

hi Experts,
In the Time series screen of a balanced scorecard, Y axis should specify appropriate units. In case of amounts it should say (000) to denote 2 as 2000 that is to show the scaling factor along Y axis.
Thanks in advance.

The logfile /var/log/Xorg.0.log might have some information in it about what's going on - looking for warning lines (start with WW) or error lines (start with EE) might give you some insight.

Period in Personal view in SEM Balanced Scorecards

Hi all
I have a problem regarding Personal Views in SEM Balanced Scorecards. I have saved some Personal views, so that I can easily find the drilldown and selection I am interested in. The problem is, that the views are saved with the period initially selected, and when time passes, and I enter a new period, the views still contain the period initially saved, so I have to change alle views manually. Does anybody know how to make the period dynamic, so that saved views always shows current period?
Thank you in advance

User Exits in Balance Scorecard

In the balance scorecard project (SEM 6.0 and BW 7.0) at our clients place, we need more details to be incorporated for a given metric and initiative as follows:
Metrics: Apart from the metric owner, we need to store data entry responsible, backup for data entry responsible, metric due date
Initiatives: Type of Initiative, Internal Order Number, Allocated Budget, Budget Spent, Forecasted End date of Initiative (different from End date of Initiative), Effort based progress, Status
We need to know whether there are any user exits provided in Balance Scorecard to put these fields on the screens and post data into the backend tables when saved. Any suggestions/comments are welcome. I will assign points to helpful posts. Also could someone please post the list of backend tables in Balance Scorecard?

Scorec card is a front end and there is no question of saving scorecard. Can you pl explain what do you mean when you say ""We need to know whether there are any user exits provided in Balance Scorecard to put these fields on the screens and post data into the backend tables when save "..
If you need to capture the info that you mentioned you need to write the exits at the source from where the scorecard gets data.
For your other question, try tables starting with UMC*

Any one have any idea what a CLUSTER-BROADCAST message is? And where it would be coming from?Cluster broadcast message is one of the way by using which WebLogic Server instances in a cluster communicate with one another. Details are here -
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/web.1111/e13709/features.htm#i1021836
Having little idea about this, I may not comment on the exact reason behind 21.4 million CLUSTER-BROADCAST messages in 70 minutes, but you may get better and faster response in Weblogic clustering forum -
WebLogic Server - Clustering
If you have Oracle Support, then I will suggest you to track this throgh a SR.

Balanced Scorecard : Reversal of sign before showing value

hi Experts,
We want to multiply measure value coming from query by -1 before displaying in the scorecard. So in the attribute tab of measure definition for that measure for planning attribute in Reverse +/- signs we have put -1 as in F1 help its given as ( Reverse +/- signs Determines whether the plus/minus sign should be reversed or not. Enter 1 if the sign should not be reversed; enter -1, if the sign should be reversed. ).
After that we have buffered the scorecard for that measured but no change took place.
Please guide us how to achieve this requirement.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Somenath

U can use Formula like
M1*(-1).
Assign this formula while assigning the Measure to value field in Balanced Scorecard with value as Measure.
