How to CIF enterprise Change Management ECM, from ECC to APO

Dear All.
I am facing problems during CIF process for ECM (Enterprise Change Management) from ECC to APO.
Every change into Material Master, BOM, etc, we must to create one Change Number (CC01) and link with the master data that we are changing.
But when we are changing the BOM status to 02 - Inactive for a specific period, and then transport this information from ECC to APO using Core Interface, into APO the BOM, in this case PPDS, will be changed for the Whole Period. It means that the PPDS will be set as Inactive into APO being set to become inactive in the future on ECC.
Thank you all.

Somebody knows where I can found information regarding Core Interface for ECM (Enterprise Change Management).
Thank you all.

CIF STEPS to load data from ECC to APO from Process chain

Hi,
i try to create on ECC system a process chain in order to execute the CIF program for updating APO Material/Plant Master data on DELTA mode .
I am not sure that the procedure is correct, at the moment i put on a chain:
- Step 1 Program RIMODGEN with a specific variant
-Step 2 Program RIMODACT2 with a specific variant.
Is necessary a third step with RIMODACT2 in order to deactivate the integration model?
On APO we have to insert other standard step in order to complete the delta update?
Any experience on similar situation?
Thanks,
Veronica

Veronica
You do not need a third step. You do not need to deactivate the model. In fact, it is not recommended to do so. You do not need any step in APO.
If your CIF setup is correct, the first two steps should be enough.
If by 'Delta', you mean field value changes to material/ plants in an existing integration model, you dont even need to do CFM1/ CFM2 if you have setup transaction CFC9 for BTE (online transfer).

Regarding Integration Model to CIF from ECC to APO

Hi ,
Please assist me in the following issues:
What will the impact if any material is ciffed twice or multiple times from ECC to APO through IM ...will it generate inconsistency ? if so, how we can avoid this ?
While I'm ciffing the material from ECC to APO through IM, the ' Find Master Data Object ' is showing certain number say 'X' but when I'm running CTM for it the explosion of BOM of Master Data is showing less number of material than 'X'...in that case what might be the possible issue ?
While generating IM , can I club Sale Order, Sale Order Stock, Planned Order, Prodn order under same variant ? or ill it generate inconsistency ?
TIA
-Michael

Hi Michael,
1. It is not a problem. Is is quite common to CIF materials twice a days or even more. It shoul not generate inconsistencies.
2. You could have more materials than materials bith BOM. In other words, maybe not all your materials have a BOM.
3. Its recommended to have a separate integration model for your object.

ECM is one of the fastest growing areas in the industry - Sun has not embraced this but Oracle, IBM, EMC and Microsoft are seeing huge growth and expect it to continue for years to come. Bottom line unstructured data is difficult to manage = opportunity.
ECM specialists are very hard to come by these days, I know of many organizations who just cannot recruit high quality staff (both vendors and end users).
Frankly if you had skills in any of the above today you would have your pick of job's and a good rate to go with it.

How to delete Master Data transferred from ECC to APO via CIF

Hi, all
I'm connecting SCM 5.1 with ECC 6.0 via CIF.
When activating Integration Model in ECC, the following error occurred;
"Location 0001 of type 1001 (BSG 592BUSGP) already exists in APO"
This is because Location 0001 was already transferred from different ECC client via CIF, and not cleared.
I'm now trying to initialise master data transferred from ECC to APO via CIF, but in vain.
I suppose I have to first delete all master data CIFed from ECC in APO, or have to execute initialisation of APO master data with ECC data in ECC.
Please tell me how to do this.
For details, please read the followings;
I connected APO client with ECC client 590.
I transferred Plant and Material Master from ECC to APO via CIF.
After that, I wanted to change ECC client from 590 to the other.
I created the other client (592) by client-copying from 590 with SAP_ALL copy profile.
I deactivated Integration Model in ECC 590, and activated the same in ECC 592.
Here, I faced the problem.
The initial data transfer failed due to the duplicate of data.
Now I'm wondering how I can initialise master data in APO and transfer initial data from ECC.
Due to testing purposes, I have to change ECC clients from one to the other this time, but I cannot initialise master data in APO and cannot tansfer initial data from different ECC client.
thanks in advance,
Hozy

Hi all,
Thank you very much indeed for lots of your replies.
Thanks to all of your advices, I'm getting to understand what to do.
Well, I'll say I have to create one more client for testing with other ECC clients or I have to rebuild the client by client-copying from 001 and implementing all transportation requests, for marking del flags to each master data and running del programme sound like tough work, and sound like odd ..
Then, I've got next issue here.
In SCM-APO, I use BI objects, and , if I have to create several clients for testing, I have to set up clients where you can use both BI objects and CIFed master data.
I suppose I have to change 'BWMANDT' in RSADMINA and make RSA1 accessable in other SCM clients and implement tests.
Also, I have to register BI System for newly created SCM clients in RSA1-SourceSystem.
Well, if you have any experiences on this kind of use, and if you have any advice on it, please give me any tips.
Particulary, I'd appreciate very much if you give me advice on which way you have chosen; creating several clients or rebuilding the one client in SCM-APO when you use both BI objects, CIFed master data and Demand Planning.
Thanks in advance.

How to transfer Sales BOM from ECC to APO DP

Hi,
Demand planning require Sales BOM from ECC. Sales BOM in ECC will not have Routing & Work center, then how a PPM with Sales BOM can be transferred. If i have to create a dummy routing & WC for those sales BOM it will be tidious job to create all the master data. Is there any way to transfer the BOM alone from ECC to APO.
Please throw some light on it.
Thanks & Regards
Shan

Hi Somnath / Ritesh,
Are you sure about ciffing Sales BOM(usage 5)to APO as PDS ? Did you test it or your comments are based on SAP documentation?
I tried to CIF Sales BOM as SNP PDS, it is creating PDS with only parent item.Child items are missing.I have not used any production version here.
If i use production BOM(usage 1), it is creating PDS with both parent and child items.I have not used any production version here also.
SAP says BOMs can be ciffed to APO as PDS. No productions versions are required. but it has not mentioned about BOM's usage. May be , Is it by default production BOM?
One more question, Is it possible to create production version with BOM usage 5? It has no meaning right..
I think system does not allow you to create production version with BOM usage 5.
I also tried with BOM usage 2. In this case also it behaves like sales BOM.
looks like only production BOM can be ciffed with proper BOM structure in APO.
if required i can send you the link to share screen shots.
Pls comment..
regards,
Umamahesh

CIF of transaction data from ECC to APO

Hi,
I wanted to know where we maintain the configuration for real time transfer of transaction from ECC to APO.
I know for master data we have an option in CFC9 for real time/periodic transfer. Is there any similar config for transaction data too like sales orders etc.

Hi Alok,
To allow online transfer of changes to transaction data from SAP R/3 to SAP APO, you have to activate generally the BTEs in SAP R/3.
This is done in R/3. This is the path:
SPRO --> Integration with Other SAP Components --> Basic Settings for the Data Transfer --> Change Transfer --> Change Transfer for Transaction Data --> Activate Online Transfer Using BTE
You can read about it here:
Change Transfer for Transaction Data - Integration via APO Core Interface (CIF) - SAP Library
Then of course you will need to generate and actiave your IModels.

Mariano

Amend Forecast after CIF import from ECC to APo

Hi all,
I need to amend the forecast in APo after a particular Sales Order type has been imported.
The import Occurs using an RFC connection to trigger the Function Module /SAPAPO/CIF_SL_DOC_INBOUND
Is there a user exit that gets fired after this completes? I've found one at the beginning but not at the end.
If anyone has any other ideas how this could be achieved then please let me know.
Thanks.
Regards
Dave

I can use the CIF for independent demands or PIR's from ECC to APO. But the CIF functionality that sends independant requirements ignores MRP elements with type SB for dependant requirements you can not pick them up. At least I have not found a method for the standard CIF to send MRP elements SB as of yet.

Transfer of PIR from ECC to APO - Time stamp

Hi Friends,
We are transferring Planned Independent requirements from ECC to APO through CIF.
In APO Product view Forecast requirements Date is sync fine with ECC date however the time is setting default to 03:00:00 am.
we want the time to be set to 06:00:00 am by default.
How we can we archive this?

Need to Populate Material Type from ECC to APO Product Master

Hi All,
I need to update the material type field from ECC to APO.
I am using the userexit CIFMAT01 and component EXIT_SAPLCMAT_001.
I need to extract field MTART from MARA table and need to Populate it in APO Product master.
In APO i am using the ATT01 field of table /SAPAPO/MATKEY.
But this does not work the data of material type is not getting populated in APO.
We have tried to use a break point in the user exit and while executing the transaction CFM2 it does not stop at the break point.
Can anyonwe guide me as to how to go about in implemeting this user exit.
Regards
Nitin

Hi Nitin,
Make sure that u r pass the material type as a below :
CT_CIF_MATKEY-ATT01 = Pass the Material Type.
CIF_MATKYX -ATT01 = 'X'.
Check the below thread to debug the CIF queue:

Vendor product relation not transfered from ECC to APO

Hi,
I am new to APO.
We are transferring the info records(me13n) details from ECC to APO by CIF .
But in APO system , when I check the product for the location(/sapapo/mat1) it says the product is not created for vendor.
but this details are present in info records in ECC.
Hence currently, we are manually creating the products for vendor.
Is there any BADI where all vendor-product link can be transferred

Hi Rachel,
You can use BAdI: /SAPAPO/CIF_ENHANCE_TPSRC (method CHANGE).
Take a look at SAP Note:
1873917 - CIF Purchasing Info Record - Product does not exist at
Vendor location
I never used that BAdI, but we made something similar. We made an enhancement some time ago to extend the Product at the Vendor Location. This was done for subcontracting at the time the PPM was transferred. I am not sure if this is your case, because you just mentioned that you needed for a vendor. If it applies, please check here:
483358

Problems when trying to transfer location from ECC to APO

Hello,
I am trying to transfer some locations from ECC to APO via CIF, but a system error appears: "Message no. SR053, data error for the location address 1000". For this reason I have not been able to transfer any location to APO. Could anybody tell what could the problem?
Thanks in advance,
David

Hello Tiemin,
Thanks for your answer. Based on your answer we changed some settings and now we are able to transfer locations from ECC to APO, but the error message is still showing, so even tough the error is not stopping the transfer now, we are not able to find what could be the problem. Any more ideas about what we need to check?
Thanks againg for you help.
David.

Issue in transfer of data from ECC to APO

Hi All,
I have a requirement of transferring data from ECC to APO. I am using EXIT_SAPLCMAT_001 fro this purpose. The problem is, I need to transfer the data of a field that is not present in cif_matloc but present in /sapapo/matloc.
How should I proceed...Please help....this is an urgent requirement
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
you may want to go to the transaction /SAPAPO/SNP_SFT_PROF
Determine Forecast of Replenishment Lead Time
Use
In this field, you specify how the extended safety stock planning determines
the forecast of the replenishment
lead time (RLT). The following values are available:
Supply Chain
The system determines the RLT forecast using the supply chain structure by
adding the corresponding production, transportation, goods receipt, and goods
issue times. If there are alternative procurement options, the system always
takes the
longest
option into account.
Master Data
The system determines the RLT forecast from the location product master
data.
Master Data/ Supply Chain
First, the system determines the RLT forecast from the location product
master data. If no RLT forecast can be determined, the system determines the
forecast using the supply chain structure (as described under
Supply
Chain
Dependencies
You can retrieve the replenishment lead time forecast yourself by using the
GET_LEADTIME
method of the Business Add-In (BAdI) /SAPAPO/SNP_ADV_SFT.
Replenishment Lead Time in Calendar Days
Number of calendar days needed to obtain the product, including its
components, through in-house
production or external
procurement.
Use
The replenishment lead time (RLT) is used in the enhanced methods of safety
stock planning in Supply Network Planning (SNP). The goal of safety
stock planning is to comply with the specified service level, in order
to be prepared for unforeseen demand that may arise during the replenishment
lead time. The longer the RLT, the higher the planned safety stock level.
Dependencies
The field is taken into account by the system only if you have specified
master data or master data/supply chain in the RLT: Determine
Forecast field of the safety stock planning profile used.
Hope this helps.
The RLT from ECC is in MARC-WZEIT which is transferred to APO in structure /SAPAPO/MATIO field CHKHOR.
May be if you maintain the setting in the profile, you may get the value in RELDT.
Thanks.
