Data column in Manual planning Layout

Hi,
I have a KF in data column and year as a dynamic in the data column. Year is restricted to 2006 and 2007 in the planning level. When layout is executed is displays 2 columns 2006 and 2007 other then lead cols which as expected. Now at this stage I can enter data for both 2006 and 2007. What I want is that when layout is executed the col for 2006 should be display only and the user should be able to enter data only for the col 2007. How can this be achieved?
Thank you,
sam

Goto the planning area and create a data slice. When you get to the data slice screen on the right hand side in Bps0, you will see list of characteristics and go to the fiscal year and in that in from column, enetr 2006. Save the model
Execute the layout and you will see the cell for 2006 greyed out.

How to hide a data column in a planning Layout

Hi experts,
we use BW-BPS and I need some datacolums in planning layout, which should be calculated.
Rest Volume = Forecast - Actual
The customer wants to see only the "Rest Volume".
But i need for calculation Forecast and Actual values, which are available in Infocube.
Do you know how to hide some colums in planning layout ?
thanks a lot.

Write a one line macro in SAPAfterDataPut sub module and check the option in the tab MS Excel Settings in the last screen of the layout.
Sample macro:
suppose the column you want to hide is 4.
columns(4).hidden = true

Increase empty rows in BPS Manual planning

Hi All,
I have a BPS layout and there is already data in the cube and I can see it. when I want to add additional data via this manual planning layout, ı only see 20 empty rows. when ı insert 20 rows of data and save it, new 20 empty rows will come.
Is it possible to increase these rows from 20 to 500.
I want to insert 500 rows of data at a same time.
I appreciate you for your replies.

Hello Ali,
we have had the same problem and could extend the number of input ready rows by changing of the system function:
Function Group: UPP_FRONT_SPREADS
Include: LUPP_FRONT_SPREADSTOP
Following line was changed:
*\constants: c_dummies_number type upp_y_row value 20.
constants: c_dummies_number type upp_y_row value 500.

Planning layout can no longer be displayed after transport

Hello everybody,
I have transported a planning area with all levels and so on.
I have several Manual Planning Layouts with key figures in data columns and rows defined individually.
I am using defined values of G/L Account characteristics in Lead column, each row is defined by a G/L Account number of a specific Chart of accounts predefined in the Header.
I load my G/L Account numbers with the same flat file in Development system and in Production system but after transport the layout cannot be displayed.
If I maintained G/L account characteristic in RSA1 on production system, I find all the account numbers for my Chart of accounts but if I try to define a value of G/L Account in my planning package, I do not find any values on my Chart of Account???
Could you help me??

Variable with range- only 1st value used in manual planning ?

Hi,
We're trying to define a column in a manual planning layout that will represent a YTD total. We have defined a variable for 0fiscper that contains the range of periods we require in the YTD total. When we execute that manual planning area with this variable used as a restriction on the data column we want, the key figure values displayed only represent those for the 1st period in the range - not all periods in the range !
I'm hoping someone can tell me if manual planning layouts can use variables in this manner. If not, how can this best be done ?
Many thanks,
Blair

Hi Blair,
Create a total column using the dynamic column, as a result you would have the individual period columns and the total column in the layout. Now make the individual period columns hidden using any of the options below.
You could achieve the same, by making the column hidden in the transaction UPX_MNTN
> Enhance Planning Layout
> Select the relevant layout
     > Select the enhanced button for the key figure
       column
       > Mark the hidden check box there.
Alternatively if you are using Excel GUI, you could set the column width of the columns preceeding the total column as 0 (in the third screen of the layout) to make them hidden.
Hope it helps

Help reqd for determining header char combination in Manual Planning

Hi,
I have created a manual planning layout which has 3 chars in lead col, 5 KF in data col and all remaining chars in the header. Now when I display plan data for this layout at time it displays me records only for one combination of header chars. And so I have hit next combination button to navigate thru remaining records. Is there a way by which I can have all the records with all possible header char combination at once?
If hit the other combination button and empty all the header fields and then execute it says me no records found for this combination coz then in this case it searches for the records with all the fields blank.
Thank you,
sam

Multiple options:
1. dependent characteristics (like profit centre / comp code) wont be modelled in the layout. You will have to derive them as chararacteristics relationship. If you wish to keep the dependent characteristics in the layout, then you need to write a exit variable which will populate comp code by reading profit center. Reg cost element, you can have it in loead column. With this setting, if you chose a profit centre in the header and the company code will be populated and for a given profit centre, you cna view the plan data.
2. Create a report and this is a better approach. You dont need a exit or anything. From report, build a jump to UPSPL for entering plan data.

**URGENT** - PRODUCTION ISSUE with Planning Layout

Hi,
we've a manual planning layout that uses both macros SAPAFTERDATAPUT and SAPBEFOREDATAGET with custom code developed in these 2 macros to switch data between "SEM-BPS 1" and "New" sheet.
Layout has 11 characteristics in lead columns and around 40 keyfigures in data columns (dynamic).
Using macros, we are formatting SEM-BPS 1 sheet to display all dynamic data coumns in a single page of New sheet.
for this, our custom macro formats each row of SEM-BPS1 into 10 rows of New sheet by reducing 40 columns into 4 (columns is what matters for our users but not rows).
We tried this for 40 rows of data. (means, 40 rows 40 columns). Our Custom macro formed 400 rows and 4 columns into New Sheet and even switched data between "SEM-BPS 1" and "New" sheet as per our macro coding. here, we can execute all planning functions. fine till this point
Now, we have a problem when dealing with 100 rows. (means, 100 rows 40 columns). Our custom macro had formed 1000 rows and 4 columns as expected with accurare data. 
at this point, When we started running any planning function or even when we just click on check button (check button runs both SAP macros, I assume), system is freezing up doing nothing. each time, we had to kill the process. when we looked into CPU usage, we can see that excel.exe process is using 99% of CPU.
Appreciate if any one can share experinces on this.
Note: 
1. By disabling custom macros, we executed 100 rows 40 columns w/o any issues.
2. when executed custom macros outside of SAP for 1000 rows 4 columns, both macros took just 2 seconds to switch data between sheets.

Hi there
This is the option Jeff was referring to. I see it in my own RoboHelp version 10. As we aren't seeing it in your screen capture, I'm wondering if this was an option that was added via a service release you haven't installed.
I do suppose another possibility would be that you are using RoboHelp for Word and perhaps that isn't an option with that application.

CO-PA Planning Layout

Hi Gurus,
I want to create a planning layout where I would have 12 columns for periods and the year selection would be in the header/general selection. But I can put only period/year characteristic so for each year I have to create different layouts? Is there a by-pass?
Can I create appropriate variables, and how?
Thanks
g

Hi
It is usually handled this way
1. You can define 12 columns in your planning layout. In Each column select PERIO as the characteristic. In the 1st column Define a local variable "1" for this PERIO... In the next column, define variable as "11", and then 12 and so on
You supply variable value for "1" (say 001.2010) from the input screen while uploading the data and the rest of the 11 columns would get automatically derived based on this value.. as 002.2010 for col 2, 003.2010 for column 3 and so on..
2. In Planning level or package (I dont rem which one exactly), when you set it up - you can include PERIO or fiscal year as a characteristic... Define a variable for this and you need to change the variable value every year before touching the KEPM process
No need to create a new planning layout every year

SUB Totals within a Dynamic Data Column

Has anyone ever calculated SUB Totals in a Layout with a Dynamic Data Column?
The TOTAL for all data is expressed on the Data Column tab of the Layout as C(1):C(1) - 0FISCPER / Posting Period is the Dynamic Characteristic. When the system actually displays the 12 columns of data for the Year, the formula for TOTAL is also adjusted - no problem here. But the user also wants SUB Totals, by Quarter, within the Year.
Any insight or suggections are appreciated !
Thanks,
Lyle

Hello,
use variables Q1, ..., Q4 for the quarters and create
data colums as follows
1 Q1 dynamic = X
2 Total C(1)
3 Q2 dynamic = X
4 Total C(3)
5 Q3 dynamic = X
6 Total C(5)
7 Q4 dynamic = X
8 Total C(7)
9 Year Total C(2)C(4)C(6)+C(8)

Planning Layout Function

Hi Guys,
In the Manual planning Layout selection, Is it possible to have a range selection as you have in BW User Entry Variable in queries??
Or have a default setting that uses the last used value in the selection field????
K

Hi Koffi,
it is not possible to create variable with select options in BPS like in BW. The trick from Filip is good when you want to use a range. But often the entries are not well sorted and a range is not suitable.
In some cases it may be possible to use a hierarchy and a hierachy variable as a workaround. The hierarchy can be used as a kind of "predefined select options".
In a planning session you can choose a node of the hierarchy in the BPS-variable and get all entries of this node.
This solution is not very flexible but sometimes useful.

BPS Planning Layout - Data Column issues

My basic question is: is it possible to configure a characteristic in the data column such that it contains a range of values, instead of just a single value. We have requirements to produce a series of comparison columns for things such as "Year-to-Date" (sum of a range of fiscal periods), "Prior 12 Months" (again, sum of a range of periods), and so forth. Unfortunately, the BPS layout configuration of data columns only allows you to specify a single characteristic value. If you configure it with a variable that contains the range, the system only uses the LOW value of the range, not the full range. The ability to provide such comparison columns is critical to our users' ability to see prior information and make a determination of new plan values for the plan year.
Any thoughts or suggestions on how I should approach this, or alternative approaches to take?

John,
This has been an issue with BPS since you can only display data columns of the granularity you specify rather than a range such as YTD similar to what you can do in BW restricted key figures.
The work around is to create and store the numbers in
1) YTD key figure in say fiscal year current year fiscal period current period and/or
2) Prior 12 months Key figure and store the number against fiscal year current year fiscal period # or first period period of the year...
Hope this helps and assign points if you found it useful.

Please advise how can this error msg be avoided and I can save my new changes to the layout
kind regards,
Sarah

Hi Deepti
It is in Data columns.
Its working in production enviroment without any values being there for some key figures but it is complaining only when we try to make the changes in the layout and try to save.
