Documentation for SAP APO

Gurus,
Anyone has good documentation for APO DP and SNP. I heard there are cubes and DSOs on the APO side also so wanted to learn more about that. Any pointers/information will be really helpful.
Is APO the product SAP is going with or it is being replaced with something else?Thanks.
Thanks & Regards,
AK

 4. Material Type:

 FI-SD Integration:

Dear Seniors,
I am a SAP Consultant with experience in PP. I have now a request for a customer that uses SAP MILL.

Has the customer activated the DIMP (Discrete Industries Mill Products)-Industry Externsion in ECC - and you would thus like to learn more about IS-MP-PP?

Thanks

Crystal Reports transport files for SAP APO / SCM

Hi there,
Problem: we want to use Crystal Reports on top of SAP APO / SCM and have some difficulties getting the definitions of BW / OLAP servers right and don't know which transports to import on the SAP to report with Crystal.
System is a SAP SCM system with APO module. There is a cube in this module (because there is some internal BW system) and I can see the cube in Crystal Reports. When I want to report from this cube I get an error:
"/CRYSTAL/MDX_GET_STREAM_INFO" not found.
This means some transport files were not imported and some functions are missing.
The following transports are missing:
====quote from transports_EN.txt included in transports for Crystal Reports=====
The following files must be used on an SAP BW system:
(These files are Unicode enabled.)
Content Administration transport (K900579.r21 and R900579.r21)
Personalization transport (K900580.r21 and R900580.r21)
MDX Query Connectivity transport (K900581.r21 and R900581.r21)
ODS Connectivity transport (K900582.r21 and R900582.r21)
===========================================================
My SAP BASIS expert refuses to import these transports in SAP SCM, because he thinks it is not an SAP BW system as listed in the above transports_EN.txt file. Just trying is not an option because transports cannot be removed once imported...
In my opinion these transports have to be imported to clearly access the cube and will work on SAP SCM even if it's not a 'dedicated' SAP BW environment. In other words, these transports should be imported and will work on SAP OLAP servers like SAP BW, SAP SCM, SAP SRM (APO) or SAP SEM.
Does anyone of you have some more experience on reporting from SAP SCM / APO cubes and if I can import these transports without getting some nasty errors, because its not an SAP BW system?
Kind regards!
Edited by: J. van de Mheen on Mar 3, 2009 4:21 PM

Thanks for your reply, but this is not helping me much.
Let me explain more.
In the transport_EN.txt file we see this:
If your SAP system is running on a 6.20 *BASIS system* or later, you must use the files listed below:
(These files are Unicode enabled.)
* Open SQL Connectivity transport (K900574.r21 and R900574.r21)
* Info Set Connectivity transport (K900575.r21 and R900575.r21)
* Row-level Security Definition transport (K900576.r21 and R900576.r21)
* Cluster Definition transport (K900585.r21 and R900585.r21)
* Authentication Helpers transport (K900578.r21 and R900578.r21)
The following files must be used on an *SAP BW system*:
(These files are Unicode enabled.)
* Content Administration transport (K900579.r21 and R900579.r21)
* Personalization transport (K900580.r21 and R900580.r21)
* MDX Query Connectivity transport (K900581.r21 and R900581.r21)
* ODS Connectivity transport (K900582.r21 and R900582.r21)
So I have to import 5 transports in SAP BASIS system and 4 transports in SAP BW system to make full use of the integration kit.
SAP SCM / APO is basically a BASIS system, so the BASIS expert says only those 5 transport have to be installed.
But SAP SCM / APO is also having some reporting capabilities and stores data in OLAP cubes (Infocubes).
In Crystal I can see these cubes when using SAP BW MDX connection.
To make the error go away, I must have some function modules used in transport 'MDX Query Connectivity transport. But the BASIS expert doesn't want to import this transport, because it is listed as a transport for a SAP BW system and he says SAP SCM / APO is NOT a SAP BW system (it's a BASIS system).
And now I have to get some proof that this transport has to be imported in the SAP SCM / APO BASIS system before he installs it...

SAP APO with SAP Retail

Hi,
Can SAP APO be implemented with SAP ECC Retail, if yes..can article master data be CIFed to APO or do we need to set up material master data.
Thanks
Sharad

Hi Sharad,
I have attached a link in which you can refer the document via the menupath
SAP solutions > SAP for Retail > Documentation for SAP Retail
http://help.sap.com/
"SAP for Retail Master Guide" wherein it details the integrated environment with SAP ECC Retail with SCM.(Page 48 of 79) has the integration chart in it.
Regarding master data ciffing, if you have already established all master data in SAP R/3 system, then you can use CIF for transferring master data.

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

        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.
Regards
Vinod
