Hi Jambo,

  • Restrict WBS elements in using PO

    Hi all,
    As per our SAP configuration we are creating PO using WBS as budgets having account assignments as Q. Our company has several divisions & we have given different WBS elements to each division as their annual budgets. Single person from each division is assigned to create PO. The issue is, there is no restriction on WBS when they create PO. Is there any way to restrict WBS element to particular user in such way that, only that particular user can use only their divisional WBS element in creating PO?????
    Your expert advices are highly appreciated u2026u2026u2026.
    Regards,
    Sam

  • Restrict WBS Element Type During Element Creation

    I have our Finance dept who is wanting to create a role that will restrict the users to creating ONLY a Statistical WBS Element, and no other type of WBS element.  I have looked through the auth objects associated with CJ30, CJ20N, CJ01 and CJ11, but do not see any auth objects that restrict the type of WBS element that can be created.
    Does anyone have an idea if this can even be done?  Is this intended functionality?

    i had a look-around CJ30 (not the other ones). i'm not familiar with this module but obviously the 'philosophy' behind WBS elements does not cover their 'type'. i don't think you can do this without using an enhancement. i had to run from work today to keep up for another appointment so i was not able to search for an enhancement that might do the trick. maybe you can do that with an abaper on your site?

  • CAT 2 WBS Element drop down

    Hi,
    Could anyone please tell me, how could i fulfill the following requirement.
    When a user enters his/her time sheet he/she only wants to see the WBS elements which they are assigned to and not all in the drop down list.
    Best Regards,
    Roville

    Hi,<br>
    I believe you have to enhance CATS, you need to add a Z field to hold WBS and write the custom search same as WBS field but in the select modify the query.
    Then once the user saves the values , the value from z field needs to transfered to Standard WBS.
    Display the z-WBS in profile
    User exits:
    CATS0001 (Set up worklist): This one defines a worklist in the upper part of the CATS screen
    CATS0002 (Supplement recorded data): Here you can add values to customer defined additional fields or even modify the data entered by the user
    CATS0003 (Validate recorded data): This one is to check entries for whatsoever
    CATS0004 (Deactivate functions on the interface): CATS got a lot of buttons. Here you can get rid of the ones you don't need.
    CATS0005 (Customer field enhancements): You can add fields to CI_CATSDB here to later on use to display or enter additional data
    CATS0006 (Validate entire time sheet): Mainly serves to validate the hours entered if you don't use HR
    CATS0007 (Subscreen on Initial screen): Customer popup, defines data valid for the entire time sheet(row) 
    CATS0008 (Determine recipients for the approval workflow): You can connect CATS to a standard workflow so that superiors can approve times entered before they are transferred (HR, CO, PS...)
    CATS0009 (User-Defined Text Fields in the Data Entry Section): You got two 40 character text fields in the data entry part you can fill with this exit - display only
    CATS0010 (Display User-Defined Fields in the Worklist): Same as above for the worklist
    CATS0011 (Customer-Defined Functions): Add your own functions to the menu
    CATS0012 (Customer Subscreen): Define CATS header
    CATP0001 (Determine Target Hours): Define your own target hours 
    Good luck<br><br>

  • Wildcard searches for WBS element

    HI Experts,
    Can anyone give a example prgm for wildcard searches to WBS element LIPS-PS_PSR_PNR field.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    This is standard system behaviour. Purchase requisitions generated by MRP do not add to commitment. However, when these PRs are converted into POs, the POs add to commitment. Purchase requitions genertaed directly from PS, without the intervention of MRP always add to commitments.

  • Search help for WBS element on timesheet

    Hi,
    We are using EA-HR 6.00 (webdynpro)
    Is it possible to change the search help for the WBS Element field that appears on the Record Working Time timesheet?
    There appears to be a table called TCATS_SHLP_ITS, but is this not for the old ITS version and not the new webdynpro version?
    The client would like to use a different search help when they choose the dropdown on the timesheet but I can't seem to figure out if this is possible.
    Thanks.

    I guess I'll retract my question, as making change to table TCATS_SHLP_ITS is making a difference on my WBS element dropdown... just need to get it to work properly now.

  • Search help for user field for WBS element

    Hi,
    how can I add a search help to one of the user fields for WBS elements without modification? Is there an exit which I can use? I want to have a search help for field PRPS-USR02.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi
    Create an elementary serach help using the Table USR01 or USR03
    see the steps
    1) Elementary search helps describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).
    2) Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
    3)An elementary search help defines the standard flow of an input help.
    4) A collective search help combines several elementary search helps. The user can thus choose one of several alternative search paths with a collective search help.
    5)A collective search help comprises several elementary search helps. It combines all the search paths that are meaningful for a field.
    6)Both elementary search helps and other search helps can be included in a collective search help. If other collective search helps are contained in a collective search help, they are expanded to the level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.
    CREATION:
    Go to SE11  Tcode
    select search help
    give the 'z' search help name and create
    select the selection method ur table name eg : 'mara'
    dialog module 'display value immediately'.
    add the field whatever u want and lpos = 1 and spos = 1 and check import and export parameter.
    where left position when displaying and spos = search position
    and then save and activate ..

  • Config for Restricting Posting for WBS Element

    Hi,
    I would like to know if there is a central CO config that could restrict posting of WBS elements (set as not allowed for all WBS element posting). Another way to do this is to lock account assignment to prevent postings to come in but this would be difficult since there are too many WBS elements involved. (We only need to do this temporarily during cutover)
    Thanks!
    Vivian

    Hi ,
    Go to OKKP select ur controlling area n at the left side click on activate components folder double click on the fiscal year shown on right side
    In this screen in activate component tab u can deselect projects tick ur purpose culd be solve. no CO posting culd be possible to project.
    Thru OB52 u can block the posting periods so that FI postings can be restricted.
    The second option U can lock the users who can do the postings  during cutover uploading

New screen appears as expected, clicked Start to begin search and screen went back to shopping cart screen without performing search.
            I am unable to understand Why this is happening.
    Is there any custom module to handle the F4 help for WBS element.Please suggest me the way to fix this.
    Regards

    RFCUSER is used to perform this search.
    You have to swith the user in dialog mode.
    Also make sure :
    - you have enter the backend destination at the very end of "define backend system" customizing point.

  • ME5J - PRs by WBS Element

    Hi,
      I am trying to run ME5J by entering in the Search Criteria WBS element which encompass the entire range yet no PRs get displayed. This is the first time I am using ME5J or got to know of WBS element.
      I am wondering if the PRs are in some way not linked to WBS? Is there any way I can check the relationship. This is probably a very basic question for experts in this forum but since I am new to MM, any help with explanation of how I should proceed will be appreciated.
    KA

    Dear KA,
    WBS is an element from PS/PM module , procurement in MM can use account assignment from PM/PS module (Acc.***.cat "P" or "Q"), when using Function (WBS), Usually WBS use to control budget for each PO that being issue for this WBS.
    To display the data with ME5J, you need to know the number of the WBS element,then enter it to the screen, it will show you all PR that been assign to this WBS .
    You can check more information about this in below link:

  • 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 in purchase order

    Hi,
    End user is having authorisation to create PO s for four plants 2000,3000,4000 and 5000.
    we have created a WBS elements for each plant (statistical) and allocating it in the PO for Budget check.
    The issue is how to restrict the end user from Putting the wrong WBS in the PO.
    (the user may enter 3000 plant s WBS element in the WBS field , while creating the PO for 2000 plant.)
    Regards
    SAP student

    Use BADI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST
    and write your logic for the Po line Item, where you need to check the WBS with Plant at Item if it matches then it should allow to Save PO..
    If it doesn't match then it should throw error..
    take ABAPer help, he will help you in writing the logic..
