Functionality of Distribution Organization

Hello Gurus
In Organization Parameters window>ATP, Pick, Item-Sourcing Tab>Distributed Parameters Block>Distribution Organization Checkbox.
What is the functionality of this check box?
Because if I check this check box, I am not able to launch pick realease my sale order. It is giving the following error.
"Error: This action cannot be performed on all selected records."
If I uncheck this check box, my shipping transaction is working fine (i.e. launch pick release is working fine). Please explain.
thanks & regards

Hi Riyaz,
RIMODGEN is different as compare to RIMODAC2 OR RCPTRAN4. But I understand your concern here. RIMODAC2 will do the trik, then why do we need any RCPTRAN4?
You see, generally we run this RIMODAC2 program after the IM is generated. So, after RIMODAC2 run, there is no need for RCPTRAN4.
But this run time for the RIMODAC2 can be reduced if we perform RCPTRAN4 run just before RIMODAC2 run. Since all the change pointer regarding material/customer changes are already processed by the RCPTRAN4 run. So, RIMODAC2 will take time to send the newly added materials to APO (if any new material is added to the IM by REMODGEN) only.
When there is a change in a material and you send the change transfer by RIMODAC2, then this program send the whole master data again, not only the change part. So, by design RIMODAC2 takes more time as compare to RCPTRAN4.
Just to add some more, ther is RIMODINI which can take care of everything- whether there is a change in the master data or new master data addition in the IM (Integration Model). But do we schedule this program everyday? No, as it takes much longer run time, as its send all the master data inside the IM, whether there is a change or not.
But sometimes we need to schedule this program if any certain inconsistency arise (like some user has made some change in the master data, directly in APO by mistake, OR there is very unique inconsistency in the PPM due to change pointer was not processed correctly due to deletion flag in the BOM in ECC and later the deletion flag was removed). So, this program can be schedule weekly basis to resolve such inconsistency.
Hope this helps!

Fox Function for Distribution

Hi Guys,
I have requirement that when the user enter the Prod Units (Key Fig) in Local currency(100) then it has to spread to global Currency(50). Even the UOM(Column in the example) which is on 0unit. has to spread. (LB or KG,,,,ETC)
I am thing on haveing Fox Function which will do this below is my function.
For Eg:
BA     Plant     UOM     Prod unit     curr type
1000     10     LB     10000     100
1000     10     LB     10000     50
1000     10     KG     5000     100
1000     10     KG     5000     50
My Fox Function:
DATA UT TYPE 0UNIT.
DATA CT TYPE 0CURTYPE.
DATA VR TYPE 0VERSION.
FOREACH UT,RC.
IF {GPRODBASU,100,UT,001} <> 0.
{GPRODBASU,50,LB,001} = ({GPRODBASU,100,UT,001}/GPRODBASU,100,UT,000})*{GPRODBASU,50,LB,000}.
ENDIF.
ENDFOR.
But this Fox function is not working the way i want it. Any suggestion will be great.
Thanks

Once i have changed the Fox Function. It worked for me.

Planning function: distribution with keys and whole numbered results

Hello,
using the planning function type "distribution" with keys yearly values shall be distributed to monthly values. However, the resulting values shall be whole-numbered - e.g. the planned sales of 10 machines per year shall be distributed to monthly values. The result shall not be 12 times 0.833 but 10 times one and two times 0. Is there a "smart" way to do this?
Presently I can think only of an approach using a fox formula where the result values are calculated using functions like "trunc" and "frac".
Kind regards, Kora

Once you get the distribution resuklts, apply FOX to trim the decimals and put both the functions in a sequence.

Multiple receiver account in distribution

Hi All,
I want to know if it is possible to use multiple accounts as receiver in distribution.
If it's, how can I customize the account field?
Thanks & Best Regards,
Burcu Noyan

Hi,
When we execute actual distribution, it's completed successfully but when we check the account balance form FBL3N, the balance was not zero.
FBL3N shows that, the amount that is distributed by the cycle was still on the sender account and sender profit center.
What is the function of distribution? Does it distribute only profit center side, without creating an accounting document?
Thanks&Best Regrads

IPhone Content Distribution

Hi,
We have software that has 2 parts to it. One part is the actual application and the other part is content for the application. Examples, of similar applications is mp3 players and mp3s, eBook readers and eBooks, etc. We sell our content and not our application. We are trying to figure out how to sell our content for the iPhone. We see a few possibilities
1. Bundle the content with the application and sell it on iTunes. We will certainly do this for our top content. However, this would require us to maintain over 400 applications on iTunes with 100's more on the way. This is just too costly for us to post all of our content to iTunes and maintain it. The other problem is that users will want their content to work together. So if they buy product A and product B they will want the content from both to work together. As far as I can tell right now the sandbox will prevent this, but I haven't done a lot of research on this yet.
2. Sell some content on iTunes and sell the rest of the content from our web site. We would NOT sell the actual application or any plugins to the application from our web site. We would just be selling content. The user would get the application from iTunes and then the application would download the content they have purchased from our web site.
Does anyone know if number 2 is permissible? As best we can tell from the SDK license agreement we can't sell plugins, applications, or unlock codes from our web site. We would be selling content for our application, but we are not sure if this is acceptable.
Consider a company like mobipocket (www.mobipocket.com). I doubt they are going to post their 30,000+ titles bundled with their reader to iTunes as separate applications. (I guess they would maybe do it if there was an automated way to do it). Or consider a company that wants to sell subscriptions to different newspapers. Does anyone know what kind of distribution model Apple will sanction for these situations?
Thanks,
Stephen

Scott,
Your proposal is the solution we have been thinking would be the best as well. We were looking at the SDK agreement and we were not sure about the following sections
3.3.2 An Application may not itself install or launch other executable code by any means, including without limitation through the use of a plug-in architecture, calling other frameworks, other APIs or otherwise. No interpreted code may be downloaded and used in an Application except for code that is interpreted and run by Apple's Published APIs and built-in interpreter(s).
3.3.3 Without Apple’s prior written approval, an Application may not provide, unlock or enable additional features or functionality through distribution mechanisms other than the iTunes Store.
So we were really wondering about 3.3.3 "enable additional features or functionality through distribution mechanisms other than the iTunes Store." Would content distribution over the web be considered enabling additional features or functionality? We would not be enabling different features or functionality in the software with our content. However, the application would display different data and information to the user based on the content that they purchased.

Product Costing in SAP Retail Solution

Hi experts
I have a question about product costing in SAP Retail (SAP ECC 6.0).
In material master data (Tr. MM43 - Tr. MM42) Product Costing view for Logistics:CD sheet is activated.
Although, for Logistics:Store sheet is not activated.
In customizing, we have tried to activate the Product Costing view for Logistics:Store sheet, but there no standard dynpro to use it. So, we have some doubts:
- Do we have to create customer (Z) dynpros in order to activate Product Costing view for Logistics:Store sheet?
- Does SAP allows Product Costing functionality in SAP Retail solution?
If both answers are YES, i have another doubt:
- In our business scenario, the store is supplied by the Distribution Center. So, does it make sense to run product costing for
a articles in a Store?
We think it makes sense to apply product costing functionality in Distribution center. In order to analyze deviations from
Standard costs to real costs. But we are not sure about Stores.
Does anyone have experience in customizing product costing functionality for a SAP retail in a Logistics:Store?
Thank you for your time
Regards

hi
Product hierarchy in R3 is termed as Merchandise category hierarchy in SAP IS retail
But in R3 Product hierarchy is not used much but Merchandise category hierarchy that is termed as MCH is a basic thing reqd for defining master data that is article master data which is nothing but material master in R3
As i said Product hierarchy levels are available in R3 also but not much used
Merchandise category hierarchy levels is most commonly used in SAP IS retail
What we call material group in R3 is same as Merchandise category in SAP IS retail and material in R3 is article in Retail
Merchandise category hierarchy levels
Say a Retail mall has merchandise items
Under merchandise there are 2 divisions Food and non food
Under nonfood say there are 2 divisions say hardware and apparel
Under apparel there 2 divisions say Mens wear and ladies wear
Under mens wear you have t shirts,shirts and pants etc
Here t shirts,shirts and pants etc are individual articles
Menswear and ladies wear are material groups
Hardware and apparel are merchandise hierarchy level 1
Food and non food merchandise hierarchy level 2
Retail mall is merchandise hierarchy level 3
like that hierarchy levels are commonly defined and used as a must to have efficient master data in SAP retail and the maximum no of hierarchy to have ideally is 6 apart from Merchandise category
In our example we have defined three levels
The same functionality can be used as product hierarchy in R3 also but doesnt been put in to use much
In Retail the no of articles a store is going to manage to be will be huge hence this sort of seggregation is needed there must
For more clarity try to post this in retail forum(Trading industries)

IDOC Error Number:29 : Error in ALE service

Hi Experts,
Already checked & read couple of threads on this but no help.
I have a scenario to send Vendors information out from my ECC system to MDM via XI.
I am using IDOC Extension ZCREMAS to do so.
Steps already done:
Sender System: ECC Dev System
Receiver Syste: XI Dev system
Port Config: SAPXI ( RFC Destination as XI system )
Partner Profile: XI Dev system->Outbound Parameters -> CREMAS & SYNCH ( CREMAS -> Configured the Z extension & Message Function )
Business Distribution Model : Defined Sender, Receiver & Message Type as Above.
When I try to Generate the partner profile it gives message 'No messages have been defined for the selection conditions in the model' with Status ICON as Green.
Now if I go to BD14 and try to execute the program for message type CREMAS it says :
63 master IDocs set up for message type CREMAS.
0 communication IDoc(s) generated for message typeCREMAS
If I try to debug I find the problem in FM ALE_MODEL_DETERMINE_IF_TO_SEND While calling ALE Distribution model where it failes to determine the Sending system as : DEV.
However, I am not sure how to resolve this error or am I missing any other setting in ECC?
If I try to generate test IDOC via WE19 it works fine.
Thanks,
Abhinav.

Your sender destination is wrong, check with SCC4, i.e. make sure that you have given correct logical sytem name in sender and receiver in the model view.
Also... be sure that the LS identifier you're using is actually assigned to the client you expect (SCC4 transaction let's you look at the clients and their assigned LS identifiers)

Hi,for gererating parter profiles automatically usint t-code bd64.

hi.
i wonna send idoc from ecc to xi.
and i am gonna use filter function of distribution model (bd64) to filter idoc according to the certain criteria i defined.
i have created model view in the ecc.
but there are not the string "No filter set" under my message type,so i can not double click it to create a filter.
why?
and that i have successfuly distributed it to xi ,because i have seen the identical model view in the xi.
next,
i am gonna generate parther profile automatically.
so,
i choose menu item "environment--> generate parter profile" using bd64 in XI to open a screen,and fill partner system,clicked execute button.
but a message occurs on the screen:
No message have been defined for the selection conditions in the model.
what' s wrong with the problem?

Not sure if I catch on, did you run bd64 on XI? ... Generally, after you have created model view on sender R/3 system, you should save it. Then, chose a model view for which you want to generate a partner profile and go to the menu "environment--> generate parter profile". Then partner profile will be generated.

Workflow for Idoc errors

Hi,
I am new to workflow, I got a requirement for idoc error handling in workflow.
If the idocs fail a notification needs to be sent to an appropriate personnel. If it fails due to configuration or technical issue then the notification needs to go to the tech personnel ( A distribution list ) . If it is a data error then notification needs to go to functional personnel ( distribution list ).
Here i have created a WF using Object IDOCAPPL. Please let me know how i can handle this condition and want some document on orginization structure.
I have refered to documents in Saptechinical and Sdn.Plz let me have some other ideas and documents.
thanks
Arun.

You can create a custom rule and inside that you can have your own condition and populate the users accordingly.
Distribution list..you can create in SBWP itself.

PKG can't silent install on Mac Os 10.5

I have made an Installer by PackageMaler3.0.6 on Mac OS 10.8. Also I have add a JavaScript function in Distribution,This function use for detect the certain App is running or not. Some code like this:
var allProcess = new Array();
allProcess = system.applications.all();
var allProcessCount = allProcess.length;
If I normally install (With Installer UI) this pkg on 10.8,10.7,10.5, it's Ok, all function works fine. If i use command line to silent install On 10.8,10.7 it's OK, no error. But if i silent install on 10.5.8, there will be an error in terminal(JavaScript error), can't install. If i remove the code of "var allProcessCount = allProcess.length;" It can silent install on 10.5.8, once if added the code like "allProcess.length" ,there will be an error,it looks like can't use the array property in silent install on 10.5, but 10.7,10.8 it's OK and install with UI it's also Ok on 10.5. Did anyone knows how can i slove this issue? Thanks!!!

SRM 7.01 Central Contract: Email Notification when contract is distributed

Dear all,
I lwould like to know if it exists a standard functionality for distribution notification and how it is customizable.
The scenario:
I create my central contract in SRM and i would like to be able to send email alert to the back end user (Local Contract Manager for example) when the contract has been distributed correctly. Does the user need to be is the SRM Organisational Structure?
Can i use the event schema like expiring contract notifications?
Thank you for your help.
Best Regards,
Jennifer

The first interface that try to get out from SRM was " PurchasingContractERPRequest_Out_V1", thus based on this interface we made the configuration on PI. So, after pressing button " create contract" on srm if we execute tx SXI_MONITOR in SRM we found the interface " PurchasingContractERPRequest_Out_V1" and in the backend system ( ECC) at tv SXI_MONITOR we found interface PurchasingContractERPRequest_In_V1 for this contract with black and white flag ( processed successfully) but no contract created in ECC not even SRM.
Anyway we have checked that inbound proxy is executed but we dont see any contract created
Is this the right Interface? We are missing something?
Best regads and thanks again for your help!

Allocation of cost to different cost center

Hi Techies,
I have to allocate cost from one cost center to different cost center according to percentage (%). Company wants to show same cost on sender and then breakdown according to % on receiver cost center.
Example: Company wants to allocate cost from CCenter A to Ccenter B1, B2, B3.... according to % like 74.1% to B1, 14.8% to B2. Now which allocation functionality (Assessment, Distribution) I should use to solve this problem. I would really appreciate if you have method or process step to perform this process.
Thank You,
Kenny

Use transaction KSU2 to call the Assessment Cycle.
Click on "First Segment" and in the segment header, under Sender Values, select Posted Amounts and key in 100% (since you wish to assess all the costs). Under Receiver Tracing Factor, select Fixed Percentages.
Click on the "Senders/Receivers" tab. Now under "Senders", do an F4 (dropdown list) in the Cost Centres field and select your Cost Centres (or groups).
Similarly click on the Cost Elements and dropdown to select your Cost Elements or groups.
Now under Receivers, in the Cost Centre field, key in the Cost Centres you wish to post costs to.
Click the next tab Sender Values
Here, enter Share in % as 100% (default) and under version, enter 0.
Now click on the Receiver Tracing Factor tab. You should see all the Cost Centres you entered under Receivers in the Sender/Receiver tab. Enter the %s you wish to apportion to each Cost Centre.
Save this cycle and run this for the period in question. Before you run this, make sure you post some costs to the Sender Cost Centres. Else the system will find nothing to assess and come back with the same error.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

Planning for 3shift production

hi,
my client doing planning in legacy system for 3 shift production.he makes plan two days before for a day production.
planning sheet contains shift detail,time interval for prodn, material number,planned qty.
Eg,
1st shift- 7.00am to 10.00am- 'X'material- 20 qty
            -10.00am to 12.00pm- 'Y' material - 3 qty
            - 12.00pm to 3.00 pm - 'Z' material - 5 qty..
2nd shift - 3.00pm to 6.00pm -'A' material - 10 qty
               6.00pm to 7.00 pm - 'B' material - 2 qty
              7.00pm to 11.00pm - 'X' material - 26 qty
3rd shift-...................................................
my question:
           i want to map this in sap. and i want to create planned order with scheduling time through MRP.
can u tell me the possiblities.
thanks in advance

Hi prakash
You can try this. Do shift definition and shift sequence with group. And Assign this group to you work center in capapcity tab view. From this the available capacity can be calculated as per the definition and sequence.
You can do scheduling by Distribution rule, Distribution function and Distribution key. The distribution function will say whether the loading of an work center is discrete or contineous. And how much % of work to be loaded to work center after how much % work.
This will have to be done more eloborative. I have given just an idea.
Finally you have to assign this Distribution key to your work center. And the scheduling will happen as per the key.

Cost allocation problem

Dear Expert,
In cost center master data, there was assignment for 1 profit center into cost center.
Is it possible to allocate one cost center to many profit center?
If yes, where is the tcode for the configuration setting and how is the process flow for that allocation in SAP-CO?
Kindly clear me about this issue
Thank you.

Dear Puri,
Let the cost be accumulated in a single cost center >> passed on to the respective Profit Center. You have the
functionality of Distribution where you can distribute the amount accumulated in a particular Profit Center to
as many profit centers in the desired % or fixed amount in the specified period, either monthly/quarterly/
half-yearly or once in a year periodic processing.
Warm Regards,
Sadashivan
