Free Training Documentation for APO

Everyone,
Does anyone know about a good training document for APO configuration.
Please let me know.
Thanks
Gayatri

Gayatri,
APO is a rather significant subsystem of SCM.  Most experts don't attempt to learn all of it.  I suggest that you focus on a few solutions that you think you will be needing, rather than learning the whole thing.
For starters, when learning configuration, always start with SAP's Best Practices.  For APO, look at
http://help.sap.com/bp_scmv250/BBLibrary/HTML/BBLibrary_EN_DE.htm.
Each of the building blocks contains a configuration doc.  If you can master all of these, you will be more knowledgeable than 90% of the professional consultants in the business.
Best regards,

  • Looking for APO training in Detroit area or online

    Hello.
    I am brand new to SAP, and hoping to learn APO and combine it with my profesisonal experience for a new career direction. I have included a brief summary of my experience and education at the end of this post.
    I am looking for a quality online /eLearning course for APO or a live course in the Detroit area to supplement my official SAP Education USA courses. I am much in need of SAP system access / lab setting for practicing etc.
    I have taken SAP01 through SAP Education USA, and scheduled for:
    SCM130     SAP R/3 Planning and Manufacturing Overview
    SCM200     Business Processes in Planning (SCM)
    Thank you,
    Brian
    Brief background:
    *Brand new to SAP, and not currently working with it
    *Experienced Supply Chain / manufacturing professional, exculsively in a Big Three automotive company (non-manager)
    *MBA, (Supply Chain Management concentration)
    *MS, Information Technology Management
    *Process experience in EDI, JIT, lean, planning, forecasting, scheduling, material releasing
    *Cross functional experience in logistics, purchasing, sales and marketing (demand and volume planning)
    *Excellent system / technology skills including experience with i2 Integrated Volume Planning (IVP) and Gateline Optimization Product (GOP)

    Hi Brian,
                   It is unfortunate but there are no real reliable people for teaching particularly APO. The best bet I would say is sap itself. It is worth every penny. I searched for people all over US and burnt my hands few places as well as they took money but did not teach even what they said.  APO itself if fairly new and very few people expertise in it.
    Read the material first before going to the certification. I am sure with your background, you should be able to grab the topics fairly easily.I think the only uphill task for you is to understand how SAP deal with the supply chain not understanding the topics of SCM.
    All the best.

  • CS5 RAW Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information.

    I rented a Nikon D600 & D610 and CS5 cannot open the RAW files, i do not have any issued with my D700 RAW files. I am getting this error message -
    Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw.
    Please visit the Camera Raw help documentation for additional information.
    Can anyone please help?

    Sorry, I am on a MAC. I downloaded the link you provided and it's giving the same error message as above. Running CS5.
    The error message you gave is from Camera Raw. I thought you said that DNG Converter didn't work?
    The link I gave you is an article on getting your raw files to open in Camera Raw. Did you read it? I lazily gave you the link because this is one of the most common problems in this forum, and I get tired of saying the same thing over and over again. I could break it down for your specific case, but I was hoping you could read through the article and work it out for yourself.
    But, here goes:
    Your cameras are newer than your raw converter, so it won't understand them.
    CS5 comes with Camera Raw 6, which can only be upgraded as far as 6.7.1. You can find out which version of Camera Raw you are running in three ways: in the settings title bar (Cmd-K), in the plug-in title bar (press F to start/stop full-screen mode to reveal the title bar), or Photoshop's Help menu (About Plug-ins).
    Downloading raw files from newer Nikon cameras with old versions of Nikon Transfer will actually make them unreadable in Adobe software. They can be fixed with a free utility. Again, it's all in the linked article. You should be using up-to-date Nikon Transfer, or Adobe Photodownloader to avoid this problem.
    All being well, you have good raw files on your computer. You can convert them to dng using Adobe DNG Converter. IF you are on OSX Leopard or Snow Leopard, you CAN'T use the latest version, because Adobe stopped support. But, if you ARE on a later OSX, you can download DNG Converter 8.6.
    DNG Converter is designed to convert FOLDERS of raw files at a time. You select a folder of raw files, and tell it to create DNG copies. BUT, you have to set up the converter before you start using it...
    If you load up DNG Converter, you'll notice a button labelled "Change Preferences". Clicking this, you'll see the first option is "Compatibility". Here, you must select the appropriate setting for the version of Camera Raw you HAVE (see above). If you can't work this out, just pick "Camera Raw 5.4 and later". THEN pick a folder of raw files and convert them to DNGs.
    All the above is already in the article, but I gave you a personalised response. If you still can't get it to work, please give us more than one sentence. Tell us exactly what you tried, and describe exactly what happened. Which version of OSX you're running, what device and software you downloaded your raw files with, how you used DNG Converter, and so on.
    I really should be in bed.

    hi
    What Are SAP End User Manual
    It is the same for every other modules although here I reference it mainly for SAP HR.
    1) You should understand which targeted group for the end-user training is for.  Do they have any computer background or not. 
    2) In what way they are going to make use of the manuals supplied to them during the course of training.
    Let us focus on how to prepare manuals:
    In the client side , End Users are not permanent. If they get any better job outside they will resign and go out. Even if you train them well, again the end-user team disappears after some time. That is why implementing company( Client ) expects SAP Consultants to prepare documents which are self explanatory (even to a layman in SAP) and study themselves and use the sap easy access very comfortably.
    Hence we should prepare a document which explains the following things comfortably:
    A) All the buttons and Screens we have in sap and its importance for an end-user.
    B) All the transaction codes used by end user.
    C) The STEP by STEP usage methodology with screen shots and explanatory foot notes for each Transaction code.
    D) Prepare a book a table and columns which should have the following information:
    - Sl.NO.
    - Transaction Code
    - Navigation path 
    - Use of the Code
    - Expected Result
    - Achieved Result
    - Remarks/Any Comment
    E) Highlight the common troubles during the usage of SAP by an end- user and give the solutions (ready to use)
    These problems you can come across while giving the in house training for the end-users.  You just place them at one place and publish it for their usage in future for any of their new joinees as an end-user.
    F) Every consultant is aware that the entire Organsiational Management is with end user only. Means consultant should train the end user in entire OM.
    G) We should inform the importance of info types and usage for our purposes at expert mode, PA30, PA40 etc.,
    H) Each field in the international infotypes should be explained very clearly and ensure that they are comfortable with the fields of infotypes which have been configured for their company.
    For example : info type 0001 Org Assignment insists about the three structures of the HR. We should explain each sub field like Emp Group, Emp Sub Group, Personnel Area and Sub Area and its importance and relevance to their company so as to understand while processing them from the end- user point of view . 
    When an employee is hired into the company , now the end-user in a position to understand which employee group and subgroup, Personnel Area And Sub Area etc., should allotted..
    Like this whatever comes across in SAP Easy Access should be insisted through the training of end users.
    I) Demo, exercises and solutions should be provided in the manuals.
    J) Glossary of terms and expansion of Acronyms, Abbreviations should be given.  Like this each consultant should focus on end user training and prepare the documents.          
    What is the Difference between Consultant & End users?
    SAP consultant role is to build the system, changes & modification/updation in currently installed SAP system for the end users.
    SAP End user only use the SAP system just to fetch some info, or to create new thing. So a end user is just using the final product which it is meant for and consultnat design the product/updation and modification.
    The roles and responsibilities of end users is working in easy access menu they will not have authorizations of using img settings if they get doubt they will send query to the implemented company and just entering day to day transactions.
    Roles and Responsibilities of End User:
    Using the software at the end or after the implementation is an End User.
    In sap HR , we do come across entire Org Management creation by an end user after the Personnel strucutre is created.  OM objects like creation of Org Unit means functional area or dpt , creation Job and Position and its occupancy is with in the limits of an enduser.  Initiallly the OM is created by sap consultant . In course of time a new department has appeared in the company of the client .. this has to be created by the enduser rather than depending up on the implementor... similarly new job and position..like this small things are always done by the enduser.
    The entire work of OM is purely depends upon the enduser.
    After from this running periodical payroll and Ensuring of the Time schedules ( Work Schedules) of each employee is done from sap easy access by an enduser and the show run of payroll everymonth is by the enduser only.  Like this lot of roles are there for an end user. 
    Whatever the problems come across during the enduser utilisation of sap ...that will reach as ticket to the support team
    Explain what are the job responsibilities of END user & POWER user.
    One would need user id and password to access SAP be it a developer, consultant, administrator, or end user.
    End user is the one who performs transactions in SAP after it goes live. Such as posting an invoice, goods receipt, creating purchase orders, sales orders etc.
    Power Users are users with advanced knowledge in certain applications and with special permissions or roles. They work in the specialist departments in the company and are available to other users as contact persons.

  • Is XI a pre-requisite for APO in Netweaver?

    Hi,
    We are implementing XI 3.0 to replace our XML Business Partner Connections in the next few months (currently on Business Connector). 
    Traditionally, any partner connectivity in our organisation is done by our e-Business team, so this project is being run by them. 
    I have read a lot of information about XI, and my understanding is that it is a requirement for Netweaver, and is used in all interfaces between APO, BW, ERP, SRM etc. 
    Can you please confirm that this is the case?  Will old interfaces such as the CIF for APO and ALE direct between 2 systems still work in Netweaver, or will we need to replace all of these with Netweaver?  I read somewhere that the only SAP component for which XI is currently mandatory for is SRM.  Will this also become the case for the latest APO release?

    Mathew,
    I recently completed an SCM (APO 4.0) implementation at a client. We had couple of scenarios where XI was used as the integrator between a Partner system & SCM. The integration scenarios involving R/3 & SCM were deployed using CIF & RFC (BAPI etc). The integration b/w BW & SCM was done using extractors.
    So I guess the answer is that XI is not a requirement yet (in case of SCM 4.0). I haven't seen SAP documentation indicating otherwise.
    SAP's roadmap suggests that eventually XI will be integration platform & as you mentioned, SRM is probably the first product in that direction. SAP has provided the timeline on the discontinuation of BC support.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Homiar.

  • Free Workflow tutorials for FCS 3

    Want to share these free workflow tutorials for Final Cut Studio 3 (FCP7 & Motion 4, Color & FCP, Motion & DVDSP, STP & FCP). Might be of interest to those who have not yet upgraded.

    lets define MutliCam for a moment as meant to "synch audio and video from diff. sources and with different time-stamps to one common time-base".
    In your case, this base is the music track.
    All material should (and could) be synched to that single 'clip'.
    It doesn't matter where or when the material was recorded, it just has to be in synch with the music.
    So, in my humble understanding of creating a music video, it ist completely useless to 'pile' clips manually into compounds, sorted by location (???).
    Create a new Multicam clip; synching can be performed e.g. by setting manually a Marker in each source; you can drag any clip in the MC manually into position; you can apply additional tracks manually;  you can sort clips in the MC manually; ... if 'location' is important for the concept of your video, give each location its own track = angle.
    In the end, you have ONE audio track; and several 'location' tracks = camera angles. In edit, on the first run, you play the MC and hit 1,2,3,4,5,... for each cam-angle. In a 2nd step, you refine edits. Add non-synched material for cut-aways ... apply dissolves; effects, color-corrections; ... done.
    Due to using a MC, you never get out of synch. And you have to synch just once. No need fro compounds.
    My preferred source of understanding FCPX are Mark & Steve from ripple training.com, you find tons of info at YouTube

  • Where can I find free training tutorial or training materials on Discoverer

    I am learning to use Discoverer 10g Release 2. Would any one show me where I can download free training tutorial or materials on Discoverer and Data Warehouse related tools? Thanks.

    Hi
    In addition to the material referenced by Russ may I also point you in the direction of my download page on my website: http://learndiscoverer.com/downloads/downloads.htm
    and to my blog at: http://learndiscoverer.blogspot.com
    My downloads page has all of the presentations that I have given over the past few years. If you're looking to see how admin is set up then take a look at TwoHourEUL.zip. This one was a live two-hour demo, hence the name, on how to create a Discoverer EUL. Datadefs.zip contains the base tutorial database that I use.
    Now this is not free, although only $43 plus shipping, but you might want to consider getting hold of a copy of my Discoverer 10g Handbook via: http://learndiscoverer.com/books/books.htm. This book is written like a giant training manual and written specifically for 10g R2.
    Finally, if you want proper classroom style training, my company offers on-site training in all versions of Discoverer. Our links are below.
    By the way, if you have never looked at Mark Rittman's blog, referred to by Russ, take a look. It really is a cool resource for all things BI. I wish I had the time to write on my blog like Mark. http://rittman.net
    I hope this helps
