Derivation strategy issue

Dear Sapgurus
i create one derivation rule t codes is fmderiver in 100 client, for testing we copy transport request to 120, if i check rule in 100 tcode is fmderive system its showing which i have created, in 120 if i check fmderive system its not showing which i have created and transport request is successfully completed.
Regards
Raju

Hi,
When you create a transport in FMDERIVE, the system shows a pop-up window asking if you want to transfer also the values of the rules. If you choose 'yes', the values will be transported. Go to FMDERIVE, enter to your strategy, then Menu - Extras - Transport and generate a new transport, this time with values.

Derivation Strategy for PO retention Scenario

Dear Expert,
Dystem is showing an error Document line item 000 contains no clearing information when we try to post invoice in MIRO for retention PO.
Can you please suggest the appropriate derivation strategy for PO retention case ?
What should be the commitment item for retention GL account ?
If we use it as real commitment item for Retention GL account, it will post to other Commitment item which will not depict the correct result of Fund utilization.

Dear Eli,
We have implemented notes 2097766 on Dev client as part of program error but issue still remained. So as per note 171883 we have customized the message FICUSTOM100 9 (from error to warning) in transaction OBA5 for online posting. Now there is no error and document posted succesfully. Also we have also posted all payments including retention amount, system shows correct payment history in the FM documents.
Do we need to implement note 2097766 as the program error mention in this note ?

Adding Partner field in Derivation Strategy

Hello Sapians,
I am trying add the Partner field (Forwarding Agent) to the derivation Strategy from the Invoice and not from the Sales Order.
I was able to find the Forwarding Agent field in PAPARTNER Table. So I created the field in KEA5, update the structure of Operating Concern with this field.
But I am looking for the table (not VBPA) which has the Invoice details where I can add that in the Derviation Strategy. Do we have any table?
Please let me know if I need to use the enhancement to acheive this (Could you please give the steps to do this?).
Thank you,
-Harter.

Hi Ajay,
Couple of questions
1. How do I identify which field (table) has this value (Forwarding agent), so that I can create the WWXXX field. I found SPDNR from PAPARTNER table but I am not sure if that is the right table and the right field to create Characteristic on this field. So could you please tell me what is process to find the right table where the Forwarding Agent value is updated in the billing documents?
2. I could not find the KDAUF field in the enhancement Source fields but I was able to find the ARTNR field, my question is why we have to make ARTNR as Source field and the WWXXX or SPDNR (in this case) will be Target field? Does that need to be other way round? Sorry for my ignorance.
Thank you for all your help.
-Harter.

TARGET_FUND
TARGET_FUNDS_CENTER
PERCENTAGE
the abover derivation assigned to FM & maitain Rule value in the following way.

BCS_BUDGET_CATEGORY: 9F
NUMBER : 2
Target Field
TARGET_FUND : 11000
TARGET_FUNDS_CENTER: 44000
PERCENTAGE: 70 %
As I carryforward the residual budget, system only consider the 30 & 70% , create line item with that percentage. but can not read the traget fund center. system pick the source fund center 89000 instead of 44000 & 55000
please advise why not system pick the target fund center, it only consider the %.

Derivation Strategy for billing types - Post activation in KE4W

Dear Friends,
I recently activated KE4W for billing types S2, Credit Notes & Debit notes.
This is for restricting the COGS flow to CO for these billing types.
Now when i am releasing the sales document to accounting - Its asking to maintain derivation strategy.... KEDR for all the billing types.
From my previous implementations i have never maintained KEDR for billing types... as it is suppose to be on a standard derivation strategy.
How can i go about resolving this.
Do i at all need to maintain KEDR for billing types.. or is this error because of something else..
Thanks in advance
Vikrant Sood.

HI,
normally KE4W (reset CO-PA value fields) does not require any KEDR-steps.
I suggest to make a test derivation within KEDR to identify the step(s) where the message occurs.
Maybe also T-Code KECM is helpful (Overview of derivation, characteristic derivation) to see if the billing type is used as a key field,...
Best regards, Christian

Derivation Strategy year specific ?

HI,
In FM I have two Derivation Strategy, because i am moving from Former to BCS,
for swich over period and for adjustment I need to maintain old as well new Derivation strategy in System,
How I maintain it year specific? Or is there any other option to control both ?
So that there will be no clash between 02 Der Strategy?
Because i am swiching to BCS from 01 period of coming new Fiscal year.
Thanks
Nilesh

Hi,
Create a new derivation rule with valid from date as 01.04.2010, which will limit the earlier derivation rule till 31.03.2010 automatically
Until and unless you maintain the next derivation rule with a future date, the 2nd rule will be valid from 01.04.2010.
Thanks,

Derivation strategy for each regional office

Hi All,
We activated Budget Availability control at Head Quarters. One of regional office is not having budget so they dont want budget control. If i am not entering budget in FMBB transaction then system throwing error for regional office. How i can do control exception for particular regional office. We are maintaining one company code for all Regional offices.
Regards,
sree

Hello,
Is ot possible for you to identify the regional office based on the budget address?
If yes, you should create a specific tolerance profile without any AVC control (100% tolerance, no warning, no error message) ; in addition to the tolerance profile you already defined with controls.
You can use a derivation strategy for tolerance profiles ( target field as TOLPROF) : if the posting is done for the regional office, the derivation strategy for tolerance profile will call the tolerance profile without any control and no messages will be sent to the user.
I hop it helps.

Derivation Strategy for Budget Addresses

Hi, we are using budget structure and have created a derivation strategy rule to define the assignments of posting addresses to budget
addresses. May I know what is the table names where all rule values are stored so that we can extract all the information stored to be use in customised program. Is there any function module that can be use to extract all the maintain values? Please assist. Thanks. Vincent

Hi,
The tables are dynamic, i.e. they are created with a generation of the rule. You can view the name of the tables by going to the derivation strategy transaction, then Menu - Extras - Overview. You will see all the relevant tables. There is no standard function to extract the values from these tables, but you can easily create your own.

Eli

Define Derivation Strategy for Control Objects - Value Not Transport

I created Rules Value in Define Derivation Strategy for Control Objects (SPRO). Then, I perform the below steps for Transport the Request to other client.
1. Select Derivation Strategy name, Table View > Transport
2. Select Request Number
3. Click Include in Request, then save
4. Go to the Steps in Logical Order, Extras > Transport
5. Select Request Number and back to SPRO screen
After SCC1, there is only Derivation Strategy Name appeared but the rules value (Steps in Logical Order) is not appeared.
How can I transport the Rule Value?
Regards
Ton

Hi,
When you are in the derivation transaction and select to transport it, the system asks you whether you want the values to be transported as well. If you choose 'yes' your change request will include this information.

Eli

Entry payment request derivation strategy BL Account

Hello FM experts,
When I try to post an entry payment request the system shows me an error message which informs that I have to customize the derivation strategy BL account. I don´t know why I have to customize that customizing point because I already have customized the account determination for request and the systems seems that is working properly because it shows me the G/L account.
ok, I have customized the derivation strategy for BL account concerning budget ledger as the systems indicates me in the error message as this way:
Value type 54 and 60, commitment item and the general ledger account.
So at this moment I have customized the account determination for request and the derivation in the budgetary ledger. (transactions F850 and FMBLEXT)
The system does not work properly again and the error message is the same.
Note: I have activated the variant for budgetary level as 20: Spain.
Thank you very much in advance for all your help.

Data Conversion and Derived Column issues

I have a strange issue occurring with one of my SSIS packages.
What needs to happen:
I have to read data from a table that stores a field in NCHAR(40)
Send it through a Data Cleansing SSIS Component that forcefully outputs the data at a cleansed state as DT_STR(50)
Update the same source table with cleansed data - Using an UPSERT third party tool
Of course, I can't update the tables that stores data in NCHAR(40) with data from DT_STR(50), so I'm trying to use the Data Conversion Component, the Derived Column Component or a combination of, to set the data to DT_WSTR as well as to set the correct length,
from 50 to 40.
The Data Conversion Component fails when I try to set the incoming data (DT_STR(50)) to DT_WSTR(40):
[Data Conversion [186]] Error: Data conversion failed while converting column "MD_Address1" (97) to column "_MD_Address1" (190). The conversion returned status value 2 and status text
"The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
Now I tried the same thing with the Derived Column Component, converting the data from the DQS component from (DT_STR(50)) to DT_WSTR(40) and there's the error message:
[Derived Column [196]] Error: The "Derived Column" failed because truncation occurred, and the truncation row disposition on "Derived Column.Inputs[Derived Column Input].Columns[_MD_Address1]"
specifies failure on truncation. A truncation error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
I also tried a combination of Data Conversion (From DT_STR(50) to DT_WSTR(50)) and a Derived Column just casting to the correct size, but that didn't work either.
Every time I try to change the size, one of the components fail.
It appears that my issue has nothing to do with the data types, but the actual data length.
Why can't SSIS CAST my input from 50 to 40?
What do I need to do to cast/convert data from DT_STR(50) to DT_WSTR(40)?

Hi IgorSantos_FL,
It is the expected behavior when we try to convert DT_STR(50) (means maximum 50 characters in the value) to DT_WSTR(40) (means maximum 40 characters in the value). However, the truncation issue should not occur if you convert DT_STR(50) to
DT_WSTR(50). Could you post the error message that you received when converting DT_STR(50) to DT_WSTR(50)? It may be a different issue.

Purchase requisition release strategy issue

I have created release strategy in development, it was working fine with work flow.

Please do help.

Thanks for the quick reply, I just checked that the over all indicator for the development and quality, I found that in development its not activated while its activated in quality will that be of any issue.

PO Release Strategy Issue

HI,
We have created a PO release strategy workflow.All scenarios are working fine except 1 scenario.
That is,when a PO is created and rejected by a user in user decision step.The workflow will end.If the PO is changed(amount) again,the release strategy is triggered for the same user.But the workflow is not triggering.
If the release strategy is for a different user,its triggering the workflow.
I have used a fork inside which 1 parallel branch contains a wait for significantly changed event & another branch contains the user decision step,po release step & rejection reason scenario.
Can anyone tell the solution for why the workflow is not triggering for only this scenario?
Thanks,
Aparna.

Feddie wrote:>
> Kjetil, I am not clear still, could you explain me a bit clear. I have not seen any tool tip in my release tab.
Don't you see any buttons in the subscreen? The tooltip is not for the tab (title) it is for the button. I am quite sure there is a button there for cancelling the rejection, but without access to a system where this has been set up I can't check it. I just had the same issue before Christmas, where the users said the solution didn't work for the same reason mentioned here - no workflow was sent after changes where made. In fact the solution did work flawlessly as soon as they cancelled the rejection.

Scheduling Agreement Release Strategy Issue

Hi,
We have a typical problem in Scheduling Agreement Release Strategy.
Once the SA is released for the first time it should restart the release strategy again if there is a change in Quantity or Value or Purchasing group. The release strategy is getting restart for some of the release strategies and not for others. I compared the characteristics, class for both the release strategies and I am not seeing any difference.
Can anyone please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Ram

release strategy can be rerigger in case where qty or price change and the changes is over the percentage you defined for Release indicator
goto release indicator config and in SPRO for release strategy and check the Value change %
maintian 0.1 here
so any change above 0.1 will retrigger
and maintian value 4 in chgable field.
