Freezing Planning Layout Lead Column (Web)

Good Afternoon
We are currently developing planning layouts using the web view rather than the Excel view.
My question: Has anyone implemented the freezing of the lead column in the web view (similar to the Excel view functionality)?
Thanks in advance.
Andrew

Hello Andrew,
have you tried using 2 layouts, one displaying only the lead column (no or hidden data column) and one displaying data columns (lead column hidden or minimized - only '.' displayed -).
I haven't tried it yet and it may not lock very nice, but you could hide columns, you do not want to see, with an separate <div> - layer or put the layouts in 2 iframes...
It was only a thought, that came up to me.
One problem would be, if the number of rows exceeds the screensize and the user wants to scroll down...
I hope I could help you to some ideas.
Regards
Steve

BPS Planning Layout - Data Column issues

My basic question is: is it possible to configure a characteristic in the data column such that it contains a range of values, instead of just a single value. We have requirements to produce a series of comparison columns for things such as "Year-to-Date" (sum of a range of fiscal periods), "Prior 12 Months" (again, sum of a range of periods), and so forth. Unfortunately, the BPS layout configuration of data columns only allows you to specify a single characteristic value. If you configure it with a variable that contains the range, the system only uses the LOW value of the range, not the full range. The ability to provide such comparison columns is critical to our users' ability to see prior information and make a determination of new plan values for the plan year.
Any thoughts or suggestions on how I should approach this, or alternative approaches to take?

John,
This has been an issue with BPS since you can only display data columns of the granularity you specify rather than a range such as YTD similar to what you can do in BW restricted key figures.
The work around is to create and store the numbers in
1) YTD key figure in say fiscal year current year fiscal period current period and/or
2) Prior 12 months Key figure and store the number against fiscal year current year fiscal period # or first period period of the year...
Hope this helps and assign points if you found it useful.

Planning layout data column issue in BPS

hi there
I am trying to change the layout but it does not allow me to save my changes.
It complains about
"Enter a value for characteristic XXX Year for Plan (column 3)
Message no. UPP_LB022"
But there is no value to be entered here.
Please advise how can this error msg be avoided and I can save my new changes to the layout

Hi Deepti
It is in Data columns.
Its working in production enviroment without any values being there for some key figures but it is complaining only when we try to make the changes in the layout and try to save.

BPS - Freezing lead columns in HTML web layouts

Hi all,
Is it possible somehow to freeze the lead columns in the HTML web layouts?
I know the freezing can be done in the OWC excel in place, but then I can't find how to make the hierarchical display possible for excel in the web? Is this somehow possible?
Thanks,

Error in executing a layout which has a hierarchy in lead column

Hi Experts,
I have used a planning level where a characteristic called 'reporting code' is restricted with a hierarchy.
Now when I am trying to execute a layout under this level I am getting some error. The characteristic is used in the lead column in this layout.Two differene type of error I am getting in following two different cases.
1. When I am using the hierarchical settings for the lead column then I am getting the error 'Hierarchy INPUT is not suited to the planning mode.
2. When I am not using the hierarchical settings for the lead column then I am getting the error 'Too many characteristic combinations for manual planning'.
If I reduce the no of nodes in the hierarchy for testing then none of this error is coming. So I think this is related to the volume of the hierarchy.
Can anybody put some light on this why this error is coming and how to resolve this error?
Regards,
Saikat Datta Gupta.

In case of text hierarchies, wherein we can plan only on leaves, for the layout to be displayed in a hierarichal manner, we need the following settings.
In the first screen of the layout builder, next to the layout description, click on the hierarchy icon, choose non-hierarchical data model and in the additional settings, all possible char combinations.
In the last screen of the layout builder, in lead column settings, check display totals as hierarchy.
With the above settings, layout shows the result in hierarchy mode.
In BPS layout, the no of rows will be limited. As you have given all possible combinations, system tries to display the entire hierarchy, i think which is exceeding the max limit. Try reducing the hierarchy size or keep the additional settings as "Transaction data" and check if the problem persists.

The columns must be marked with a * in the columnsin Planning layout

hi ,
Doeas anyone please tell me how to add ' * ' next to characetristic name in the Header of the planning Layout in only some columns headers.
i am not able to just add * and save.
is there any VBA code we have to use ? or any changes in the BSP application of the webinterface attached to the layout.
Suppose i have ' Company code ' in the column header of the planning layout.
i want in the output of the webinterface as ' company code* '
Regards,
Sandhya

Hi Sandhya,
in Excel Layouts you should use VBA. Loop over the cells of the column headings until you find the one with "Company Code". Then change it.
In Web Interfaces you can do the same with a JavaScript item.

How do I change the width of a lead column in an enhanced layout ?

I have an enhanced layout in BPS that gets rendered in TPM (CRM2007) application.
I need to increase the width of a lead column in this layout. I saw a bunch of methods in a BADI UPX_LAYOUT_RENDER. There is one to manipulate XML and another to manipulate HTML. Are these my only options? or is there an easier way via config or another BADI?
Cheers
Vijay

Can you share if you have got a solution to this.

Planning Layout error K9162 - max number of columns in planning layout rest

Hello collegues,
our client would like to have 34 columns in planning layout costs activity inputs of TA KP67. But error message K9162 - max. number of columns is restricted to 30. So I tried to switch of the message with TA OBA5 application area K9 - msg number 162. But this does not work as the error comes up again even though the message is switched off.
Do you have some ideas?
Thanks and regards,
Christian

Hello,
thanks for your response. I have maintaine in OBMSG:
K9 162 WE E switch off selected
then in OBA5 for dialog and batch I have maintained -
but the error is upcoming again. So I think that this sort of message cannot be switched off as the planning layout is restricted to 30 columns by design maybe?
thanks and regards,
Christian

Hi,
I am trying to create a Planning layout(Excel Upload for KP26) in Transaction Code KP75.
But when i am trying to create the columns, it is giving the error message that "Max of 30 column are allowed in the planning layout".
But my requriement is to have around 40 columns.
So is there any way that we can extend the max columns allows to 40.

What kind of planning you are doing in 40 columns? Can you please elaborate.

Planning Layout Transport - Comparison Column

Hi planning experts,
I have planning layout which I transport in my qa-system. Everything is fine and working correct.
When I had a look in my corresponding layout in prod.-system I see that in the tab "data column" in column "Comparison columns" are activated. The activation is done via exit.
Question: what will happen with the layouts if I import them to prod. system. Is the column "Comparison columns" the same or will it overwritten with transport?

A coworker figured out by selecting the line break in the change subcomponent it wraps the column text.

How to hide a data column in a planning Layout

Hi experts,
we use BW-BPS and I need some datacolums in planning layout, which should be calculated.
Rest Volume = Forecast - Actual
The customer wants to see only the "Rest Volume".
But i need for calculation Forecast and Actual values, which are available in Infocube.
Do you know how to hide some colums in planning layout ?
thanks a lot.

Write a one line macro in SAPAfterDataPut sub module and check the option in the tab MS Excel Settings in the last screen of the layout.
Sample macro:
suppose the column you want to hide is 4.
columns(4).hidden = true
