DYNAMIC SIMULATION MENU IN SEM BPS PLEASE ANSWER

DYNAMIC SIMULATION MENU IN SEM BPS PLEASE ANSWER
Hi everbody,
I cannot see menu "dynamic simulation" and planning function "dynamic simulation" in our company's SEM System. Installation details are so:

Does SAP not support integration with Powersim in this new version of SEM or is there another way to integrate Powersim with BPS? I have seen these menus in version SEM 3.20 with underlying BW version of 3.10.
Thank you very much.
With best regards.

Hi again,
I know that Powersim is sold by own and has seperate license, but to connect Powersim and BPS there is a delivered planning function in SEM-BPS as I read and in "Planning" menu (in screen bps0) was a menu named "dynamic simulation" in Version SEM 3.2, I had seen this menu option in Version SEM 3.2.
I think these menus are necessary to call simulation model that is prepared by Powersim, otherwise how can I connect my Powersim model to BPS?
Can be the problem Support Package level or something that is not installed to system?
Thanks very much

Best tool for dynamic simulations

Now Powersim is not supported any more - what options do I have in NW2004s wither in BW or SM to allow users to create complex dynamic visual based simulations?

Hi,
There are a couple of built in Applications that SAP has put in 2004s :
1. Analysis Process Designer
2. Data Mining
Hope that helps

Optimum Closing Stock using Simulation functionality of BPS

Hi ,
Has any body has idea of doing simulation kind of things on planned sales/planned inward shipments to reach optimum closing stocks for a distribution center,
(Inventory) i mean in BW 3.5 like using BPS functionality.
If anyone has exposure to these area pls share with me.
Thanks in Adavance...

If you do not prefer to create new company codes and undergo a conversion effort, you can go with the first alternative and then engage SAP SLO services to replace the shortened fiscal year 2013 in your system to the correct fiscal year. That way, your next fiscal will remain 2013, and your fiscal year will not be always 1 year ahead of your actual fiscal year.
Please also read the following SAP note. There is a lot of material to read in the attachments to this note, but the time that you spend reading it is time well spent.

How to create a feedback control system in labview with an integration block?

Hallo,
I design a model of a simple mechanic system composed by one damper, one mass and one spring.
I would simulate a free response of this mechanic system, but I don't be able to integrate the mechanic state in Labview.
Seeming that the integration block in LabView produce a wrong answer.
I've attached this model create in Labview 8.2.1.
Thanks in Advance

Michele,
First of all, when you are trying to develop a Dynamic Simulation, I strongly recommend that you use the LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module (http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/203826), or, for LabVIEW 8.2.1, the LabVIEW Simulation Module. They allow you to develop your dynamic simulation natively in LabVIEW, specially in the case that you have feedback loop in your code (which is your case).
Now, looking at your program, I have several recommendations that would help you to better control your simulation. First, avoid using the Dynamic Datatype (Blue wire) in you simulation. For example, you are generating a Waveform inside the loop and you are just getting one element of the first batch. Probably, you want to generate only one element per iteration of the while loop and apply that to your equation. If that is the case, you should remove the "Simulation Signal" express VI and use the Point-by-point VI (located at Signal Processing Pallette). There you can also find an integration VI that allow you to define the sampling time for your application.
Also, the feedback node that you are using will introduce one sampling time to your simulation, which mean that, if your simulation and equations are not correctly setup to take that into account, your simulation will be incorrect. If you were using the Simulation Module, it would take care for your to do the correct integration, additional to allow using different solvers (like RK 4-5) to reduce the error on the integration.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions.

The concept of EP7.0 for BW7.0 (NOT EP6.0)

I'm new to SAP EP , having 5 years of experience in BW and SEM.
Now I'm join NW04s(BW7.0) RumpUp project as BW implementer.
In NW04s, EP is inevitable for BW,
BW reports are saved and refered via EP role and i-view.
I think BW implementer will need to set up EP role and i-view, other settings on EP.
So, I want to know the concept of EP7.0 for BW7.0 in practice.
Especially, BW report distribution and authorization, user view creation, end user interface.
So kindly give your suggestion.

Kanoko,
What do you want to configure in relation to SEM?
Stakeholder Relationship Management?
Business Planning and Simulation?
SEM-BPS?
A lot of information is covered on

Power Sim - Does it work with Integrated Planning (IP)

PowerSim currently promotes itself as being able to perform superior simulations on SEM-BPS. With BI7.0, we have the option of using Integrated Planning (IP) or BW-BPS. Following are my questions:
     1. Does PowerSim work with IP?
     2. Does PowerSim work with BW-BPS in addition to SEM-BPS? Assuming yes, what are the differences / challenges (if any) using BW-BPS in a BI7.0 as opposed to going against SEM-BPS?
     3. Does BI7 have any "out of the box" advanced simulation capabilities that are "close" to what PowerSim provides.
     4. Given SAP's recent strategic investments of Outlook Soft / Pilot / Acorn, the assumption is that these will integrate into the BI platform over the next year +. Does anybody know if any of these tools provide similar simulation capabilities to PowerSim and/or what SAP's timing is to integrate / ramp-up?
Thanks

Hi Richard,
1) Unlike in previous versions of SEM-BPS. there's no special support for PowerSim in BI-IP. Please check with PowerSim vendor what kind of standard SAP interfaces they support (to read from/write data to BI).
2) Yes, when it comes to PowerSime BW-BPS is no different to SEM-BPS. You cna use BW-BPS just like SEM-BPS (some limitations are the financial planning functions). For more information please see the BI FAQ at http://service.sap.com/bifaq.
3) No.
4) No. PowerSim provides specialized capabilities which are not included in that form in the products listed by you. Please check with PowerSim what capabilities they provide in connection with SAP NetWeaver BI 7.0

Stopping Maya 2015 dynamics playback

Hi.
Could this please be addressed (either by Apple or Autodesk). I have a few month old Mac Pro (duel xeon 6 core procs, with the D700 cards) I can't stop my dynamic simulations by either hitting the stop button or by hitting the ESC key on the keyboard. I actually need to wait for the simulation to end before it will stop (which could take a while as you would imagine). Also, moving or tumbling during playback is extremely choppy. After reading some forums it looks like this issue has been around since mid-late 2013.
I have a 4 year old i7 with a 3 year old nvidia card that performs better during dynamic playback, and the HP workstation I use at work (which is 2 years old) also instantly stops playback when I hit the ESC key. Please address this, or if the ESC key isn't the right keyboard shortcut to use let me know.
Thanks.
Kris.

Dynamic creation of data slices by admin users in BPS

hi
Can we create planning function so that administrative users can create data slices as per their timings.
kind regards
Sarah

Dear Sarah,
I donot have any sample code as of now as I am not able to access a BPS system. But let me tell you that this is simple. Create a exit planning function. Then create a FM and assign this FM in exit function INIT FM. In the FM do the following insertions to the data slice tables.
First have a look at the tables UPC_DATASLICE, UPC_DATASLICET and UPC_OPTIOS. Create a 22 character unique GUID. You can use the standard function modules for this. Let this guid be guid_new. Then get the maximum sort id of data slices for your planning area from the table UPC_DATASLICE. Now add 1 to this maximum sort and have it as sort_new. Now insert this guid_new, sort_new, your planning area name as a new row in the table UPC_DATASLICE.
After that insert sort_new, your planning area name, your new data slice name to the table UPC_DATASLICET.
The characteristic value restrictions of the data slices are held in the table UPC_OPTIOS. For the particular GUID each characteristic restriction has one row each. Consider that you are creating data slice for the year 2008 and material 'M'. So in table UPC_OPTIOS there will be 2 records with GUID guid_new. One will be for '0FISCYEAR' and the next record will be for '0MATERIAL'. See table UPC_OPTIOS for the structure of the records. You should use function module 'UPC_OPTIOS_INSERT' to insert into the table UPC_OPTIOS. Goto se37 and have a look at the function module for the structure.
Dynamic refresh of the buffer:
If u are creating only 1 data slice in 1 transaction then you should do the following:
PERFORM BUFFER_DATASLICE_GET
IN PROGRAM SAPLUPC_DATASLICE
USING DS_AREA_NAME "insert your data slice area name here
'E'
CHANGING ES_AREA_SLICE.
PERFORM BUFFER_DATASLICE_UPDATE
IN PROGRAM SAPLUPC_DATASLICE
CHANGING ES_AREA_SLICE.
CALL FUNCTION 'UPC_DATASLICE_COMMIT'.
CALL FUNCTION 'UPC_DATASLICE_SAVE'.
This will refresh the data slice buffer!
I think this is sufficient enough for ur requirement. You should be able to do it easily now! Feel free to ask if u have more doubts.
Regards,
Ares!

Calculations on Total column' fields(bps layout: dynamic calmonth)

hi friends,
in bps, output layout, based on dynamic calmonth i showing number of months. I want to system to calulate total(all calmonths) sum for a particular field.
Lead column    data columns
Expenses      apr2009 may 2009 june 2009.....mar2010   Total
Office             20         10        20                                       100
Usually for caculating total in layout builder 2nd screen, we chose tickmark(total) and then write c(1): c(1)   like that or simply c(1) which calculates all calmonth values.
My situation is like this, user only enter number of year(s), in terms of range. I populate calmonth field using user-exit based on year range. Next using calmonth field in layout builder as dynamic field. Now user wants TOTAL of individual years along with calmonths. How can i put this condition in layout builder?
eg:
                   apr2009 may 2009......mar2010 Total(09-10) apr2010 may 2010 ...mar2011 Total(10-11).apr2011 ..Total(11-12).
Expenses   10           20   30..............
Next question, Can i do arthemetic calculation on total fields?
eg:
Lead column     apr09 may09 ....mar10 total
A                         10      20                           100
B                          20     30                             200
c                           10    5                              ????(this value i want to calulate by above totals eg:   (200/100)* 85.
Can it possible to get that?
thanks,
kumar

It is not possible to hide or change the column width during design time if the layout is ALV.
However if the layout is used in WIB (web interface builder), I believe the column widths can be modified at run time. This would need additional coding.

SAP BW-BPS (Business Planning and Simulation)

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me, what will be the impact on SAP BW-BPS (Business Planning and Simulation) after upgradation fron SAP BW 3.5 to SAP BI 7.0.
or what all care need to be taken before upgradation?
Regards,
Prateek

Please allow me this opportunity to point out that "upgradation" and "updation" are not real words. The correct terms are "upgrade" and "update".
Seems trivial, but I've seen them make their way into names of workflow steps and class methods.
Yes, English is not logical!
creation - yes
deletion - yes
updation - no It's update.

Dynamic integration of BPS and BW variables

Hi,
The white paper 'how to ... BPS Variables of Type Exit' gives the way to have the system default its BEx variables values from the values set up in BPS.
This is working great when I set up my BPS values from BPS0, however, when I change my variables from a web application (with a dropdown menu)and then execute the BEx report (thru an hyperlink or directly in my web app screen), the BEx variable values are not updated (even if a refresh is done).
My understanding is that this link between variables should be dynamic as the code includes function module Z_VARIABLE_GET_DETAIL.
Thanks for any help.

Hi David,
Z_VARIABLE_GET_DETAIL does not work in this case since it runs in a different session and therefore picks up only the variable values that are commited to the database.
Instead, create a URL for calling BEx and pass the BPS variables are URL parameters. Or see "How to Integrate BEx Web Applications into BPS Web Interface" (http://service.sap.com/nw-howtoguides > BI)

Dynamic step-by-step instructions for training simulation

I'm looking for some guidance with an idea for having a dynamic step-by-step list for a training simulation created in Captivate 7.
The default behavior when creating a guided training simulation is for the steps to appear in a text box nearby the click box. Instead, I'd like to stack the step-by-step instructions in a panel on the left side of the screen that would sit next to the simulated interface on the right side of the screen. All of the high level steps would be visible throughout the simulation and each step in the panel list would be highlighted as appropriate.
I began with Lilybiri's Knockout blog post ("Create and Use a 'Knockout' Master Slide"), which seems like a possible solution, but I haven't yet gotten to the point of adding my dynamic instruction panel.
In essence, the dynamic panel will function as follows:
    Step 1 in instruction panel is highlighted at start of simulation.
    Learner clicks associated step 1 click box in simulation interface (as instructed in instruction panel).
    On click of step 1 click box, step 2 in instruction panel is highlighted and step 1 highlight disappears.
    Learner clicks associated step 2 click box in simulation interface (as instructed in instruction panel).
    And so on through all steps listed in the instruction panel.
I'm working on mocking something up using variables and advanced actions to achieve the dynamic instruction panel and want to overlay it on the left side of the screen. I'm thinking it would sit on top of the left panel in the Knockout.
In various posts, I've seen that it's not advisable to insert a Captivate SWF into another project file, so it seems that Lieve's Knockout approach is the way to go. I am happy to tackle the technical aspects of this on my own, but first want to confirm that it is even possible with Captivate or if it would make more sense to use Flash. Has anyone done something similar or does anyone see any issues with this approach?
Any input or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Nancy

Hi Lieve,
Thanks for replying. I'm using Captivate 7.
I'm hoping to work through it myself and then possibly post something to help others who may see value in something like this, so having you confirm that you believe it's possible is helpful - thank you.
I've worked out the basic technical approach and now need to integrate my instruction panel with your Knockout approach. If I can get it working, I will definitely share.

BPS Web Application - How to change function button property dynamically

We have created BPS web application for sales force, it contains 2 button.
1. To send Workflow notification to Managers 'Request for Approval' - This would be used by sales person
2. Button for Manager to approve the Plan 'Manager Approval' - This would be used by the Manager
We are using Territory Management in CRM to determine who is the manager and sales person.
We would like to use the same Web application to be used by both sales person as well as the manager. However depending on the user ID, we need to access the Territory Management table in BW to determine whether the person logging in is Manager / Sales person. If it is a Sales Person, we need to display 'Request for Approval' button and hide 'Manager Approval' button. Similarly, if it is Manager, 'Manager Approval' button to be displayed and 'Request for Approval' button to be hidden.
Would appreciate, if any one has faced similar requirement and how to do this.
Thanks,
VJ Sudharsan

Thanks Ananad and Srini for the suggestion. Actually I was working on the direction Anand Suggestion and make it working but I am not sure what I did is correct or not.
I have a bogus variable that checks for Manager / Sales person and brings back following code in the variable, if it is manager:
'<style> #Req_Approval_s </style>'
and I added a new text component of type HTML and code
<%=descr(VarvlSel2/value)%>
it works. Is this the correct way of doing the enhancement. Or is there a different place where we can add JavaScript.
Srini - I am using exit function, can you explain how we can I use BPS authorization to achieve this.
