Post Refresh datasource Activation problems

Hello all,
After refreshing my sandbox from my dev system, the datasources are all inactive. I've run the BDLS, recreated the source system connection, run the 'replicate/activate', run the program for activating all transfer rules, etc.
When I go through the datasources one by one, I can 'change' and then activate through RSA1. This sets the M version to match the A version.
Is there a report that will set the M version to match the A version, and successfully activate all my datasources? I would really not like to do them one by one.

Yes, but I'm having some trouble with it. When I run it, it throws a 'Problem Class Important" - 'No transfer structure selected'
I don't see where to populate that.
edit:
I managed to get the program to run by leaving the source system out of the variables. Now, it runs, and activates a portion of my datasources, but not all.

To load data from a cube in SCM(APO) system to a cube in BI system.

Experts,
Please let me know whether it is possible to load data from a cube in SCM(APO) system to a cube in BI system.If so explain the steps to perform.
Thanks,
Meera

Hi,
Think in this way,
To load the data fro any source we need datasource Ok. You can genare Export data source for Cube in APO, then use that datasource for BW extraction, try like this. I think it will work, in my case I'm directly loading data from APO to BW using the DataSource sthat are genaraed on Planning Area.
Why you need to take data from APO cube?. Is there any condition for that?. If it is not mandatory, you can use the dame datasource and load the data to BW, if they have any conditions while loading the data from APO to APO cube, they you try check wherther it is possible in BW or not. If possible then you use DataSource and do the same calculation in BW directly.
Thanks

BAPI Function Module for SCM APO Tcode /SAPAPO/AC42

Hi,
I want to know the BAPI Function Modules for SCM APO Tcode /SAPAPO/AC42.
   This BAPI FM should return the column values "Remaining Prod Alloc" and "Incoming Order Quantity" when we give
   below details as inputs for the Tcode /SAPAPO/AC42
        Product Allocation Group
        Product
        Allocation Procedure
        prod Alloc step
        Product Alloc Object (Characteristics of Product Alloc Group)
        Plant (Characteristics of Product Alloc Group)
        Customer Group 5 (Characteristics of Product Alloc Group)
    Reward points if helpful.
Thanks,
Mich

Hi,
You should be able to get the information using the standard BAPI (Assuming you are using SCM5.0) BAPI_APOPAL_INSERT in the transaction BAPI.
ProductAllocationAPO.DataInsert
Interface to Import Product Allocation Data Functionality
This method is used to adopt data from OLTP systems for product allocation in the global availability check.
You can do the following using the method:
Adopt new data
You can adopt new characteristics combinations or new time series. Newly created characteristics combinations have the status Active and are therefore included in the product allocation check.
Change existing data
You can overwrite existing data if you have set the interface parameter ALLOW_UPDATE. You can set the status of existing characteristics combinations to Active if you set the interface parameter UPDATE_STATUS. If the characteristics combination does not exist, the system creates it.
The product allocation quantity is overwritten for existing time series. If you also want to change the incoming orders quantity, you must set the interface parameter UPDATE_INCOMING_ORDER_QTY. If the time series does not exist, the system creates it.
Prerequisite
To be able to use this method, you must have made all the Customizing settings for product allocation. For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for SAP APO under Global Available-to-Promise -> Product Allocation.

CRM - ECC -- SCM-APO

Hi Gurus,
I'm setting the gATP in SCM-APO. Everything is working fine in the ECC environment, i create my documents, they go to SCM-APO to do the ATP check (product allocation) and return with the confirmed quantity.
Now, we are testing the sales order capture from CRM, we tried to do some concurrent orders with the same data. The oder is created in CRM but it is not created in ECC. If I verify the order in CRM I can see the followin message:
"An error has occured in the system CTE-200I while copying the document"
"APO: Plng object ZAH_COMERCIAL, 010005005005010, 02, 40 0, 012, 0000 and basic method QUOTA have been lock ed (check not possible)"
Has anyone encountered this problem before?
Best Regards and thanks in advanced!
-Italo

Hello Hugo,
We are facing the same issue when order replicates from CRM to R/3. R/3 generates same error which throws back to order to CRM.
Please let us know if its resolved and what was done to solve it.

SCM, SRM, SCM APO - Master thesis topic

Dear Friends,
I am Sarav, Master student doing International Food Business and Consumer Studies from University of Kassel, Germany. In addition I finished my certification in C_TERP10_65: "SAP Certified Associate Business Foundation & Integration with SAP ERP 6.0 EHP5".
Currently I am looking for a master thesis topic in areas like SCM, SRM, SCM APO since my area of specialisation is supply chain management. I read quite number of research articles but I am struggling to find a starting point for my thesis .
I am looking forward for your valuable comments and ideas from your experiences to find a starting point for my thesis.
Thanking you
With Regards
Saravanan.R

Saravanan,
Hi! Here's a few thoughts...
1) Take a good look at the SAP SCM site area on SAP.com - http://www.sap.com/solutions/business-suite/scm/index.epx (look at the customer cases - http://www.sap.com/solutions/business-suite/scm/customers/index.epx)
2) Look at HANA - http://www.sap.com/hana/index.epx (think about the amount of data / speed)
3) Look at the SCN Business Analytics Community - http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc
Note: You should think about Mobility Business Analytics - http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/large/business-intelligence/mobile/sap-businessobjects-mobile/index.epx
If I was doing my thesis I would ask... where will the most value...most jobs be both now....and in 3 - 5 years? I would pick at least 1 company to study so that the thesis would apply to a real company or industry...not just something that's in a lab or classroom... make it apply to the real world.
Find a problem that's worth fixing. Find something that helps the product or solution...yes...ultimately helps the customer.
Be focused. Don't try to address to many things. Your starting with a very big topics. Find a compelling issue with your key supporting points.
Write on something your passionate about. There are many, many approaches...I trust you'll find a good one!
Good luck!

Client concept for SAP SCM APO and SAP TM

Hello,
We are installing SAP SCM APO 5.1 (SNP, gATP, DP) and SAP TM 7.0 (ramp up). Both connect via CIF to ECC 6.0 SP3. As far as my knowledge goes for CIF, both master data and transactional data is exchanged via CIF.
In ECC we have a three client concept:
100 customizing only
200 customizing + master data (golden client)
300 customizing + master data + transaction data
Can we use a similar model for TM and SCM APO as well? Should we then only connect ECC-300 to TM-300 and ECC300 to SCM-300 via CIF?
I have also heard that also some ECC customizing is transferred via CIF to SCM/TM. Is that true and does that change this model?
Regards,
Rob Veenman
SAP Basis.

Rob,
As a general rule of thumb, for each ECC client you will probably want an SCM client. From your landscape description, it is not clear to me in which clients you perform the everyday functions of development/test/production, but I guess you have already worked that out. Without knowing exactly how you manage your environment, I will say that it is probably a good idea to have active CIF connections between each of the three pairs of clients. Once you have set up a single connection between your first pair (ECC/SCM), you will find that setting up the second and third is pretty trivial.
Yes, quite a bit of ATP configuration can be CIFd across. Typically, you do this one time, and then lock the transfer of config out (there is a config setting in SCM to stop further transfer of config). From that point forward, any config that must be parallelled in both systems is usually done manually in both systems. Notable exceptions are Factory Calendars, units of measure, and Fiscal Periods, which can be pulled across from ECC to SCM any time you want via standard program.

Can you help me with FontExplorer font activation problems?

Anyone know how to solve a font activation problem I am having with FontExplorer 4.2? I am on a new mac with new fonts, I am using Maverick with Adobe CS6. With my new mac I bought the latest version of FontExporer Pro X 4.2. This program is having trouble with font activation in all my Adoble suite apps including Indesign. Here is what I am seeing:
1. The font activates, but the Adobe app does not recognize that it is active. If I go back to Font Explorer and deactivate manually, then re-activate manually. The adobe app might then recognize it. Sometimes it still doesn't. But this does not stay permanently, as soon as I do a restart I have to go through this process again. I see this more often with the User system fonts, but a few times with my regular fonts.
2. Other times, such as in Indesign, I go to open the file and the file stalls and doesn’t progress while it is trying to activate the fonts.
3. Another time I have seen after an illustrator file is opened the fonts aren't recognized as being opened and the text goes blank on the page.
4. In all adobe apps, if I go to use "replace font" on the missing fonts (even though they are turned on) the "replace font" menu only shows the basic system fonts, it won't show me the other fonts turned on.
I have seen these issues with both formerly created files and fresh new files.
I have tried the following based on feedback from Font Explorer staff:
Refresh your Spotlight database
1. Quit all applications other than FontExplorer X
2. Choose Tools > Refresh Spotlight Database
Clean your font caches
1. Quit all applications other than FontExplorer X 2. Choose Tools > Clean Application Font Caches (check all available checkboxes)
3. Choose Tools > Clean System Font Caches (requires restart)
Still after trying this multiple times, the errors continue and even get more random.
I have also tried this based on their feedback:
go to FONTEXPLORER X PRO -> PREFERENCES -> ADVANCED and make sure that "Automatically deactivate fonts which have not been activated by the system" is NOT set to never.
Then click on TOOLS and clean all font caches. Then reboot the system.
The auto-activation is using a new Apple technology (called Core Text), which unfortunately does not work correctly with some of the Adobe and Quark applications when keeping the fonts permanently activated. We are currently working on an update, and the next version of FontExplorer X Pro will fix this issue.
This has also not work. Can anyone help me?

Here is the official work-around for this problem.
1. Locate "FontExplorer X Pro.app" in Applications
2. Right-click on "FontExplorer X Pro.app" and select "Show Package Contents"
3. Navigate to /Contents/Helpers/
4. Double-click "FontExplorerXLauncher-3.app" or right-click and "Open" to launch it manually. This is needed only once, afterwards the plugins will work normally.
Please make sure you open the version with the "-3" suffix, the other one does not fix the problem.

DC Activation Problem in CBS

Hello,
I am facing DC Activation problems in CBS.
- We have two DC utils and config. The config DC uses utils DC and everything is working fine locally
- Today we are migrating these local projects in NWDI.
- I created new DCs in NWDI and copied the SRC folder. Did all required steps for migration, built locally and it works fine.
- I then checked in utils and activated the same in NWDI, its working fine.
- I then defined the dependency from the active workspace and everything is still fine.
- Now I checkin the src of config DC and build the same. Here the problem arises. The Build Fails
- Checked SDN and can see lot of people facing this problem but there is no solution.
Any pointers to solve this problem will be helpful

Shubham

Problem Solved.
I removed the utils DC from my client. Also deleted the folder from the workspace. After this I created the project from the Dev Config perspective again. I was surprised to see there is no component in my utils DC and thats why the problem was there.
I again copied all the src folder in the workspace and refreshed the DC. Now it locked all the source in the activity. I checked it in and repeated the above excercise. This time all the source code was there.
I deleted the dependency in the config dc and created again from active workspace(although now I realize it was not required) and checkedin and activated.
Hurray!!! It got activated.

How to Use Function_Loader_Inlay in SCM APO Version 4?

Hi ,
I was going through the SE38 - Program - Function_Loader_Inlay , to check the possibilities of upload and download product/location combinations in SCM APO version of 4.0.
But I am not able to use it as per the selection screen given.
Please let me know if some one has used the same.
Any inputs regarding the documentation OR how to use would be appreciated.
Thank you - Prasad.

HI,
We do not use this program.
For Characteristic combination creation as per product- location we use transaction /sapapo/mc62 inthat
Create characteristic combination --> infoprovider file
I would also like to know more about APOLoder which uses program which you have mentioned.
Function_Loader_Inlay report is no official SAP software.
It encapsulates ApoLoader functionality inside APO system

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? Activation problem 194:100

What the ihell is going on?
I have been burdened with activation issues for weeks - see my previous thread. I have had no response here from Adobe about how to fix it. Please don't say this is a 'user to user' forum. It isn't a 'U2U' forum when Adobe state this is the first place we should look!
Now, no CC program will run owing to something called 'Activation problem 194:100'.
Yes, I have logged out. Yes, I have rebooted. Yes, I have deactivated 'more than 2 machines'. Why should I have to repeatedly click to 'deactivate 2 previous activations' when there has NEVER been more than one activation?
Adobe not only make me look a laughing stock in the classroom but this constant issue that has been going on for weeks now subliminally tells students Adobe software is useless!
When will I be able to use CC again? I am paying for it remember!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Rajshree,
Welcome to Adobe Forum.
CC has only EVER been activated on ONE PC.
If you look at http://forums.adobe.com/message/6198690#6198690 you'll see (like many other users) I have to constantly sign in and reactivate. It is probably this that is causing the multiple activations.
However, to reiterate, CC is only running on ONE computer. It has not at any time been activated on more than the same PC. One activation - one PC.
So, the suggestion of waiting a few hours (if the prog won't activate / run) is less than adequate. Like everyone else, I pay to have it running 24 hours a day - every day.

[Beginner:] Incorporation of ECC, BI and SCM APO Inquiries

Hi All,
I would like to seek your help on something I am working on. We have this supplies procurement planning tool that I was helping to create. Our general objective is to create a tool that will give a forecast of supplies that people need to procure from a facility for the future months. I am under BI and I am wondering on the basics regarding BI and SCM APO data flows. Honestly, I am still clueless on this. I have seen from our systems that most loads come from APO going to BI. Is it always that way? Are data from ECC considered as well?
Hoping to hear lots of advises on this. Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge to a newbie like me.

Saging,
Hmmm. It seems a bit odd to be creating a 'forecasting-of-material-procurement' tool, when SAP has so many already built in, either within ERP or within APO. Oh well, I am sure there must be a good reason.
I have seen from our systems that most loads come from APO going to BI. Is it always that way?
BI type data can come from any source. The most common BI solutions I have seen is where BI data are extracted from the main ERP. However, the beauty of BI is that it doesn't care, SAP builds in functionality to get data from anywhere.
Are data from ECC considered as well?
They can be if you design it so.
You should be aware that most data existing in ERP that are relevant for material planning also usually exist in APO. The Core Interface between ERP and APO is normally set up to natively replicate substantial quantities of Master data and also transactional data. It may be that in your business environment, you really don't need to connect to anything other than APO. However, this is not a limitation of BI, it is just smart programming to try to minimize the number of sources of your data.

Flash MX Professional 2004 Activation Problems

I am having trouble activating Flash MX Professional 2004. I have had the product for many years, but it is asking again to be reactivated, probably because I have moved the vmWare virtual machine on which it is installed to a new host computer.
I have learned that the old Macromedia activation servers are no longer available, and have tried using the information provided by http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/macromedia-legacy-activation-error.html. But that only activates me to a non-professional version. I need to use features in the Professional version.
Is there a serial number available for Flash MX Professional 2004?

OK, I have got my problem sorted.
After a second call to UK customer service, I was e-mailed a serial number that they said was for Flash MX 2004 Professional. However, it didn't work with my version! My version is 7.2, and the original serial number of my product starts PFD700. The serial number given by Adobe is PFD800-00466-08280-86965. Maybe the 800 means its for a later version, don't know, but my version does not accept this as a valid serial number.
A third call to try to get a PFD700 serial number got me a brick wall again, they insisted that was the only serial number for MX 2004 Pro they had. At this point I followed sinious's suggestion and asked to talk to a supervisor. They were on the phone, and I was promised a call back. I'm still waiting.
So I hunted a bit harder with Google and eventually found a site that gave me a serial number. The use of that unlocked the Professional features of my version, and I'm up and running again.
Thanks for your contributions guys, you've both helped. I agree with sinious's critism of moccamaximum, and wouldn't normally go to sites of dubious provenance for help. But after being exhausted by my efforts to get help from Adobe - who to be fair nearly got there in the end - I went hunting and found something that solved my problem. After all, Adobe themselves are publishing activation-free serial numbers.
I've given the serial number I got from Adobe, it may help others who experience activation problems in the future.
But I'll follow sinious's advice and not give out the serial number or details of the website I got it from. It wasn't very hard to find.
