Thanking u
suneel.

Hi Suneel,
If you are very good at BW, then obviously you can go ahead and learn BPS. As SEM is a planning tool within SAP and planning mainly involves financial planning. Its better if you are good at the processes of FI-CO before learning BPS, CPM and BCS.

Ravi

Characteristic as an Attribute of Key Figure BPS-BCS

Hi,
We're endeavoring to integrate BPS and BCS data for planning. Our issue is that our BPS data is COPA-like in that it's Key Figure-based. We are not using 0ACCOUNT. Our BCS data will be using FS Items.
My thought would be that this integration would be made easier if a Characteristic (FS Item) could be an Attribute of a Key Figure. I wouldn't need to then map and copy the data, I could just report it differently. The Business has agreed that a one-to-one relationship could exist between a Key Figure and a Cons Account.
I assume I could use a big FOX formula to convert the data in BPS, or write an external program...but those options could be difficult to maintain in the long-term.
Any suggestions?
Much appreciated.
LR

One additional point...we're considering the sotrage of this data in a transactional Cube that is separate from the primary BCS and BPS Cubes. We'd want to set it up to be able to create a Multi-Cube with the Actual data in BCS.
Thanks

SEM documentation for BPS

Hello Everyone,
I am starting a newbie in SEM and my client wants me to learn and get a feel of it before he can start me off on that. I do not have access to service market place and also the documentation on help.sap.com is not very clear. If someone can send me the presentations across I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance
Amit
[email protected]

Hello Amit,
In order to understand the BPS you should have some basic knowledge about the BW. BPS stores its data in BW InfoCubes and uses BW master data etc.
There is a quite low level introduction into the main features of the BPS that can be found in the NetWeaver 04 rampup material. Use http://Service.sap.com/rkt and look for SAP NetWeaver04. Look for BW 3.5 and the use the learning map for solution consultant.
Why is the material to be found at the BW site but not a SEM site? With BW 3.5 the BPS was moved from the SEM to the BW and is now called BW-BPS. The underlying technology and main principles remain the same thus it makes sense to read an introduction to the BW-BPS in order to learn about SEM-BPS.

BPS retraction of Quantity in CO OM not retracting at all !

Hi everybody, I post after many and many trials.
I am retracting Primary Costs ( we have planned on CostElements for CO-OM Internal Orders) and I followed the blogs etc. Everything is fine for the Amount and it retracts ok by Posting Period but the quantities are not retracting at all.
I also fixed the Unit as H as suggested because the quantity is in Hours and the R3 system expect that I retract hours for the CostElement related to Cost of Personnell.
I don't move out from this position since long and I should deliver the project in 10 days .
Any help is really really welcome.
I used CCA retractor. This is the Parameter Group

Hi Marc,
first of all my personal compliments because very often I follow your posts .
Your answer let me "smell" the right way . Before to post I already debugged the retraction but at first look, if you don't feel that also somebody else found mistakes you can debug for hours and all looks fine. So this time I debugged with more attention and I found something strange in the Unit of Measures. In R3 the Cost Element expect H as Hours but in the RFC was going the quantity without the Unit of Measure. As I remember also in the blog about retraction the author said to take care about UOM. So I checked better Retraction about UOM and I found a OSS note . Anyway if this thread can be of help, I put here the list of OSS notes to be checked.
The system where I work is always updated but I remember that sometimes especially in some cases where you miss some PIns or for many other reasons, (not good upgrades for example) the system in some part can remain not updated even if there are the proper HP.
If I can help anybody with similar problems if JUST SEARCHING for LUPREF02 in OSS NOTES you will find many !!!!

Function types for Balance Sheet Planning missing in SEM-BPS 6.0

Hi BPS experts,
After upgrading our BI-system from SEM 4.0 to SEM 6.0 (level 10) as part of the upgrade from BW 3.5 to BI 7.0 (level 15), the BPS function types for balance sheet planning are not available in the planning environment (Transaction code BPS0).
According to the SAP Library the balance sheet planning functions in SEM-BPS comprises of 6 standard function types - one of them is "Depreciation":
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sem60/helpdata/en/0a/242537cedf2056e10000009b38f936/frameset.htm">help.sap.com -> Business Planning and Simulation (BW-BPS)</a>
Menu path: Business Planning Functions -> Functions for Balance Sheet Planning
In our existing SEM 4.0 we are using "Depreciation" and the functions based on this function type are of course short dumping when executed in our upgraded system (SEM 6.0) as the function type does not exist here.
Odd though - we do have the function type "Allocation" available in SEM 6.0, which should be delivered with SEM together with the Balance Sheet Planning function types (It is listed directly under "Business Planning Functions" in the SAP Library) .
I have tried to figure out whether we missed out on activating something during or after the system installation, but our basis consultant has not found anything in the installation guides related to this issue. Also I was wondering whether it could be a simple matter of activating some Business Content but without any luck.
Does anybody know why the Balance Sheet Function Types are not available in SEM-BPS 6.0?
Kind regards,
Lars

Documentation in Integrated Planning

Hi All,
For the documentation in BPS there is an easy way of getting the object list, ie, from the Object overview in transaction BPS0. Is there a similiar way to do the same in BI Integrated Planning.Is there one table which will give the list of objects in Integrated Planning.
Thank you all

Use BPS in SAP BI

HI Gurus,
We are in New implementation, Our Client is looking to implement SAP BI, SEM BPS & BCS, SAP CRM & ECC
From a technical perspective we are a little confused. If any body can clarify some the question, it would be great
1) Is SAP BI supports SEM BPS? if supports can i use built BPS with BI or SEM BPS.
2) Is these two products ( SEM-BPS ) and BI-BPS essentially same or different... which is preferred?
Thanks
RAvi

SEM-BPS only comes when you install the SEM addon which you would be with SEM-BCS.
BW-BPS comes with BW 3.5 and BI 7.0 but the difference between SEM-BPS and BW-BPS is about 10 or so planning functions such as allocation, time lag, IRR, account based currency translation, etc. and some sample planning applicaitons which you can import from client 000 in SEM-BPS but not in BW-BPS.
Which versions does the client have for the different systems since that can have a slight impact. Oterwise bo
If you are using CRM, are you planning to use some of the CRM based planning stuff such as CRM markeing or TPM? If so, you need SEM-BPS from this as well.
IP is a newer planing product than BPS and has some additional strengths but it does not have the embedded planning services that SEM-BPS has.
BPC is the acquired OutlookSoft as a different product and there is a new version 7.0 coming out on BI 7.0 but please note that it uses different master data than BW so if you want integrated stuff with R/3, and CRM, you can have some challeges there.

SEM-BCS Step COI

Hi,
Any one can explain or forward a document for handling step consolidation of investments.
Thanks and regards
Naveen.KV

CoI is the most complicated part of consolidation.
There is still no good documentation on SEM-BCS, and CoI in particular.
Do you expect that someone will write a doc on this topic for you and send it to you?
In the SAP mentor forum were some 2008 suggestions. One of them was the more tight connections with SAP employees. Don't you have these connections? You are from SAP, aren't you?
Can't you get this information from your colleagues?
