Duration of WBS elements

Hi friends,
I am maintained activities & WBS elements in a Project. In this I am doing strict Bottom up planning & Forward scheduling.
The dates reflected in the WBS elements are OK. The Duration of the WBS element is taking Earliest Start date & Latest Finish Date.
My client wants that the Duration of the WBS should consider the Earliest Start date & Earliest Finish date.
Is it possible? or I have change the standard program.
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
Abhra.

This is standard because WBS derive the dates from two extreme ends.

2. can a network be assigned to several WBS elements.
3. can an activity be assigned to several networks
4. can an activity element be assigned to several network activities.
thanking in advance.

Hi Priyanka,
Yes, Iam sure that a single network can be assigned to more than 1 WBS at a same time.
A WBS can be assigned several activities even different networks also if required, but an activity can be assigned to one WBS element only. Once activities are assigned to WBS elements, you can exchange data between activities and networks. For example activities can inherit statuses from the WBS elements they are assigned to. Conversely you can total up project activity dates to WBS elements or can check funds allotted to activities against WBS.
A single or several networks can be used in the project structure, to map individual aspects of the project such as activities that are linked to each other via relationships. The relationships between two activities define the logical sequence of the activities (predecessor u2013 successor relationship) as well as their time dependencies. Activities of different networks can also be linked to one another. Advantage of network technique is that, system can automatically determine planned dates for each activity and entire network on the basis of duration of individual activities and their chronological sequence.
Priyanka, I hope this may clear your doubt . .

Sale order - Wbs element Report

Hi
Is there any report for sale order wise wbs element report.
In my sale order i will give wbs element and now i want to check "for one sale order , what are the wbs elements"

You can check the WBS for a sales order from the table view of VBAP.
The WBS field is PS_PSP_PNR.
Goto SE16 and give VBAP.
Enter your sales order number and execute. Look for your WBS elements in foeld PS_PSP_PNR for the different line items.
You can also create a quick SAP query on this.

Hello,
Thanks for you reply and i just want to know that.
If we assign the return order to the WBS element, the credit memo automatically has the WBS element assigned to it or do we have to manually assign the credit memo to a WBS element? if yes how?
Thanks and Regards

Vendor Payments Report with WBS Elements

Dear Expert,
I am looking a report for Vendor outgoing payment against WBS Elements.
Is there any Vendor Payments report with WBS Elements in SAP? I have seen FBL1N but WBS Elements field is blank.
Thanks
Samiee.

Hi,
You mentioned WBS Element is blank; so please check in any one sample payment documnet whetehr WBS is maintained and if yes find which field it is populated. For eg; sometimes people populate this information in the text or assignment field. If that is the case then change the layout accordingly in FBL1N.

Settlement of WBS element down payments to an asset under constructions

The down payment (of the transactions tcode F-47 and tcode F-110), are
always settlement wbs element (tcode CJ88), we do not want to post down
payments to the receiving asset under construction (transaction type
180 or 181).
In the down payments are always taken into account in the settlement to
an asset. The settlement of the down payment is the actual reason for
the previous update of down payments in FI (Transaction type group
15). Furthermore, the settlement of down payments to assets should
not be capitalize.

When you search on this forum try to put Date range "ALL" to get more results. Please read below threads and you will get the solution.
MIRO:Transaction in area 15 contradicts the net book value rule
Transaction in area 01 contradicts the NBV
Looks like you have a negative balance in your WBS which you are trying to settle to FA.

WBS Element on AR/AP Line Item Report

Hi All
When I run the FBL1n report for a vendor who has a PO which has a WBS element - I dont see the WBS element coming up on the line item report(s).
Although the field is there on the layout - it is not picking the WBS Element into the report - can anyone please tell me why this is and how I can get this field to fill with values...
Thank you
Rukshana

hi,
If you had activated Project Cash Management, you can try report CJIA which can substitute the report line item wise list for a particular project or for a Particular Vendor.
Why the standard system is not showing WBS because, a single Vendor line can be posted against multiple expense so system cannot determine which WBS to be shown in the report so it is left blank in reports, this will be applicable for Purchase order no, Cost Centers, WBS etc.
As suggested by Suresh you can use the BTE 1650, but it will keep one WBS in the line even you have multiple WBS elements used for the document posting.
For Ex
Expense 1 Dr 1000- WBS 1
Expense 2 Dr 1000- WBS 2
Expense 3 Dr 1000- WBS 3
Vendor A Cr 3000
Against Vendor line item A - it will show WBS 1 alone.As there is no standard solution you can use BTE if your are satisfied with the above example or you have to activate Project Cash management to find the exact reporting but in different reporting structure.
Thanks and regards

PO number and PO qunatity for a given WBS element

hello all,
in which table does PO number and PO quantity are stored for a given WBS element...
or do i need to use any function module....
i need to use it in an ALV report...
thanks in advance.....

For service PO's or material PO's you can get only by using PR reference.
for material you will be having only one PR for One material so there is no problem with Materials.
for ref find the below screenshot
for services number of activities comes under single PR so this is some critical to bring the datafor ref find below screenshot
as mentioned in the screenshot all the service numbers will come under PR 40 line item so by using PR 40 you will be creating PO ,
Pass order(NPLNR)/W.B.S.E(PS_PSP_PNR) in EBKN get BANFN & BNFPO pass this in EKPO for service PO's package number (PACKNO) will be updated by using this go to ESLL pass package number(PACKNO) and take package (SUB_PACKNO) and pass in package number(PACKNO) you will get the service items for that PO

Can PIR created at wbs element and MRP area of storage location level

Hi,
I tried to create an planned independent requirement at MRP area and WBS element level, but failed. The MRP area is not plant level, but storage location level.
*When trying to create account assignment category Q for it, then there is an error message saying:*
**only stock requirements are allowed when planning at MRP area level.**
Does it mean it is not possible to create planned independent requirement for this case?
Thanks!

Select the "Issue storage location" as '2' here:
spro -> production -> material requirement planning -> mrp groups -> overall maintenance of mrp groups -> overview -> mrp control parameters at material level -> (field) Issue storage location selection
& make sure:
1. In the BOM issue storage location is blank for the components
2. For the FG products , in mrp area prod.storage loc is maintained
3. Components are extended to the mrp area.
Pl. revert with the results

Report to View all PRs against WBS Elements

Hi,
I ran the tcode ME5A to display all PR's by WBS Element, but the problem is that the field WBS Element is not shown in the report.
The Change Layout option does not display this field WBS Element.
Is there a way to show this field in ME5A or is there a standard report to display all PRs in system with WBS Element field in report.
Thanks
Faisal

Hi,
In ME5A, Selection Screen click on Dynamic Selection Icon, there drill down on PR Account assignment, you will get an option of WBS element, double click on that, now you can enter you WBS element there and look for PR's.
