Integrated Planning: Planning Functions in the Web - Issues with Binding

Hi
We are on SPS 11 and are having some difficulties getting our Planning Functions to execute corerctly in the web templates.
I have created a simple planning function that performs a distribution.
The Planning Function works as expected using the plannning wizard and ristricts the data based on the Filter that I have created on the Aggregation Level as well as the Planning Function Selections.
I have created a query and web template that contains the same restriction as the filter in my aggregation level. The Agg Level filter / planning function and Query Filter all contain the Hierarchy Node Variable ZN_CC1 for the standard Cost Center Hierarchy.
I have created the following 4 Planning Buttons to test the execution of the Planning Function in the Web:
1. Planning Function Simple. Binding ref to the DP_1 (Query), Variable = Hierarchy Variable ZN_CC1, Planning Function ZDistrib1.
2. Planning Function Simple. Binding ref to the DP_1 (Query), Variable = Variable Input String Default ZN_CC1, Planning Function ZDistrib1.
3. Planning Function Simple. Binding ref to the DP_1 (Query), Variable = Hierarchy Variable ZN_CC1, Planning Function ZDistrib1. Display variable property selected.
4. Planning Function Simple. Binding ref to the DP_1 (Query), Cost Center Characteristic Data Provider Selection Default, Planning Function ZDistrib1.
When the query is executed and a node representing a group in the hierarchy is selected the query is executed and is input ready for the selected group. This is a subset of the hierarchy.
When the above planning fucntions are executed the following results display.
1. The planning function is executed however it is not restricted to the selection based on the hierarhcy variable node selected by the user. The planning function is executed for the entrire hierarchy. It is not restricted by the cost center hierarchy node variable value.
2. The planning function is executed however it is not restricted to the selection based on the hierarhcy variable node selected by the user. The planning function is executed for the entrire hierarchy. It is not restricted by the cost center hierarchy node variable value.
3. The variable popup displays and a hierarchy node is selected. The planning function is executed however it is not restricted to the selection based on the hierarhcy variable node selected by the user. The planning function is executed for the entrire hierarchy. It is not restricted by the cost center hierarchy node variable value, that was entered when prompted.
4. The planning function is executed however it is not restricted to the cost center selection based on the query DP1. The planning function is not restricted by the cost center selections.
HOWEVER,
If I goto to the filter web item and edit the cost center filter by selecting and adding all available cost centers to the filter. (This list of cost centers is restricted to the cost centers subordinate to the hierarhcy node selected in the variable)
When the above the planning functions are executed the function is now restricted to the cost centers added to the filter as explained above.
If anyone has had a similar issue with Planning Functions executing for data outside of the Dataprovider Selections I would be interested to know how you managed to get the planning function to retrict to the DP Selections that include hierarchy node variables.
If anyone from SAP can comment before I raise this as an OSS issue it would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Variables from workbook are not visible in the Planning function

Hi,
We're using a workbook with a bunch of queries in it. Every query has a lot of variables declared that are calculated based on two input ready variable that users are required to fill the first time.
Everything works as expected until the save data function is called, which in turn calls the planning function.
Here, the user exit variable try to be recalculated again. Unfortunately, this planning function loses track of the two input ready variables that were on the workbook, so the user exit variables have no values.
Can you please suggest a method so that:
a) The user exit processing in the planning function "sees" the two input ready variables
b) The user exit processing is not triggered in the planning function and it's taking the already calculated values
Let me know if you require further information.
Best regards,
George

Hi,
the variables in the filter of the query lives in one variable container and the variables of the filter of the planning sequence live in another variable container. They do not know each other. You need to establish a relationship between them. Usually this is done via variable binding for regular variables. For exit variables the variable binding can be done as written above.
If as in your case you have variables in the filter of the query and you want to use their values in the variable of the planning sequence than you need to store the values somewhere where you can retrieve them in the exit. This can be in a e.g. in shared memory or in the session memory. To do this you need to spend an extra exit variable in the filter of the query. The exit variable reads the real values and stores it somewhere (e.g. shared memory, global parameter of a function group, a class member or something similar). Now as the variable value is stored it can be read in the implemenation of the exit variable in the filter of the planning sequence.
In total we have 3 variables:
Variable 1 contains the value which the user keys in and exists in the filter of the query.
Variable 2 reads variable 1 and stores the value. It needs to be defined in the filter of the query as well.
Variable 3 reads the stored value and needs to be defined in the filter of the planning sequence.

Can anyone let me know what this means and what I am missing ?

Hi,
Generally these error come when we manually enter the value in the Visible and Input column. Instead we should try select value from the Drill down options which gets generated based on the Time Bucket Profile you have selected as input for Planning Horizon.

My iPod Touch will not play through external speakers when it is docked. It only plays through it's internal speaker. All the other functions on the iPod can be controlled by the external speakers (volume,track, etc). How do I fix this?

My iPod Touch will not play through external speakers when it is docked. It only plays through it's internal speaker. All the other functions on the iPod can be controlled by the external speakers (volume,track, etc). How do I fix this?

I would try in oreder:
- Resetting the iPod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

How to link the variable entry with the planning function execution

Hi All,
I am new to IP , we have a requirement where the user enters the value 2008 for a variable year. Then we are supposed to copy the same combinations for the next four years against which the user will be able to input the key figure values. But i have only 2008 data in the cube, so i need to generate new records for the same characteristic combinations as present for 2008 for the next four years. I am planning to use a copy function for this but how can i trigger this planning function once the user enters the value for the year variable. I want the planning function to get executed once the user clicks OK after the variable entry. Request your valuable inputs on the same.

Hi Tilak,
for this u have an option of executing the planning sequence when the web template loads ie. after the variable screen.
open the WAD.
go to the properties of Web Template web item. Under the section standard action of the webtemplate, we have a n option to include planning functions under action before rendering.
If u include your planning sequence in this this will get executed every time the layout loads.
guess this is usefull to u.
Regards.
Shafi.

How do I enter codes purchased through the Volume purchase plan into Configurator?, How do I enter codes purchased through the Volume purchase plan into Configurator?, How do I enter codes purchased through the Volume purchase plan into Configurator?

There is no short answer.
I've created a 10 page tip sheet. See the link a the bottom
I have to guess how many steps you've done, so this advice may be starting in the wrong spot.
=============================
a) I assume you used appleid of the faciltator who buys VPP apps on the VPP portal and then downloads the XLS file of codes (done)
b) I assume you have an appleid of another user. That appleid must be setup in itunes on the laptop/desktop with Osx10.8. You then launch itunes and use itunes redeem link to get one copy of the paid app. The code for that redeem link comes from your your spreadsheet from step A. Copy and paste from excel or use googlge docs to copy/paste the code.
==========================
itunes now has downloaded on copy of the paid app (stored in your documents folder, deep in your itunes folder of your laptop/desktop) Open configurator and hit the plus icon in configurator and that app is added to your list of apps with the licence count set to 1.
Now comes one more not so obvious step, LOgon to the VPP portal and download the XLS file again with all the codes.
In configurator click the mouse on the number 1 in your count of licenses. That will bring up a set of dialogs to import the 2nd version of your XLS codes. When that is done your count goes from 1 to x, where x might be 50 codes.
All of what I've posted here is documented by apple in several KB articles and their 80 page guide, or you can just read my 10 page tip sheet below...

Executing the planning function while opening the web interface

hello all,
I have created a planning area based on multiprovider.This multiprovider is based on two transactional cube ie,COPA cube and Cost Center cube.
This planning area is meant for enabling integrated planning.One plans in COPA cube and other plans in Cost Center cube the income statement gets planned based on this two.
I selected planning items in multiprovider layout to display the income statement.The layout is as follows:
PlanningItem Amount
Net Sales: 9.000,00 INR (This comes from COPA)
Sales Overheads: 200,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
Depreciation: 200,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
Other Expenses: 300,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
EBIT: 0,00 INR
Interest Income: 0,00 INR
Interest Expense: 0,00 INR
Operating Income: 0,00 INR
Taxes: 0,00 INR
Now EBIT planning item is to be calculated from the planning items as follows:
EBIT = Net Sales-Sales Overheads-Depriciation-Other Expenses
For this i have created a planning function which calculates EBIT.This function works properly,there are no issues in it.
My problem is that i want this function to be executed as soon as i open the web interface for my planning application and the result should be as follows:
PlanningItem Amount
Net Sales: 9.000,00 INR (This comes from COPA)
Sales Overheads: 200,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
Depreciation: 200,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
Other Expenses: 300,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
EBIT: 8.300,00 INR
Interest Income: 0,00 INR
Interest Expense: 0,00 INR
Operating Income: 0,00 INR
Taxes: 0,00 INR
Can anybody suggest how to go about this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Yogesh

Hi Yogesh,
as far as i know, there is no standard functionality for that purpose, but there are workaround for it.
1. Modify the BSP Application.
 Go to SE80 --> Repository Browser --> BSP Application --> your WI name --> page with flow logic --> double click on page1.htm --> Event handler tabstrip --> on the drop down selection press F1 --> add a function module that call you BPS function in specific event (e.g: OnInitialization).
2. Use WI-Exit Class / WI-Extention (ABAP OO).
Here you need to create sub class from Class: CL_UPWB_BSP_APPL, and assign the class to your WI. You can then add a function module that call you BPS function in method:
2.1. Load --> performed only once on intial execution of WI.
2.2. Initialisation --> called once for each server response.
2.3. Dispatch --> called at each action and also for each WI component.
You can see further information in SAP how to paper:
How to Validate manual input in WEB planning application, New BPS-Features delivered with SAP BW 3.5, etc.
You can call your BPS function with BPS API FM (See F.Group: UPC_API)
But there is also more easier way to realize your ebit calculation. If you define your EBIT calc. manually in layout (define with manually defined Lead column). With this way, You will always get your EBIT analog with inputed values.
Then you add your EBIT calc.function to Layout Component in WI in property: 'Function After Data Change'.

Execution of a planning function with the used dimension values in a crosstab

Hello,
would like to execute planning functions within Design Studio but I don't really know how I combine this execution with the used dimension values in a crosstab for the .
Here the requirement:
3 Planning functions which should use the same filter (all values of all dimensions in the crosstab) and which should run one after another:
// open data slice
PF_1.execute();
// generate combinitions
PF_2.execute();
// close data slice
PF_3.execute();
Many thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Tobias

Hi Arun,
in general it is not possible to nest planning functions. The inner function would update the data in the plan buffer without the outer function knowing about it. Also the inner function might be on a different aggregation level which would make things very tricky.
Alternatively you can include ABAP logic into a FOX formula:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/47/94eb78b6394befe10000000a42189d/frameset.htm
Or just create the complete logic in one ABAP planning function type.

Best way to test the planning function in BI7.0

Hi
How can we test the planning function other than the wizard.Can it be tested by creating an input ready query on the aggregation level whcih is created on the top of multiprovider joining real time info cube and standard info cube.
Kind Regards,
Sarah

Testing the planning function in planning modeler and planning wizard is the fastest and the best way to verify the planning function.
In planning modeler, you have the option of executing the planning function in trace mode which helps you to track the changes before and after execution.
Moreover, if you want to test the PF on the input ready query, you gotta wait until the query is successfully created in BEx or WAD.

How do I use GarageBand as a amp/speaker to listen to my Electronic Drum set? I have a MIDI-USB cord already but I can't figure out how to listen to my set through the software using my computer speakers?

How do I use GarageBand as a amp/speaker to listen to my Electronic Drum set? I have a MIDI-USB cord already but I can't figure out how to listen to my set through the software using my computer speakers?

If you want to listen to the sounds of your drum set, you should use an audio cable and connect it to the computer's line-in, then create a real instrument track.
If you use a Midi/USB interface, you'll have to create a software instrument track and select one of GB's drumsets as the instrument. Hopefully your drumset's midi notes are mapped to the right sounds in GB.

I am wonderfing how to create a temp table in the memory, not in disk?
thanks,

Thanks for rectifying me Howard.
I just read your full article on this too and its very well explained here:
http://www.dizwell.com/prod/node/357
Few lines from your article
It is true, of course, that since Version 8.0 Oracle has provided the ability to create a Keep Pool in the Buffer Cache, which certainly sounds like it can do the job... especially since that word 'keep' is used again. But a keep pool is merely a segregated part of the buffer cache, into which you direct blocks from particular tables (by creating them, or altering them, with the BUFFER POOL KEEP clause). So you can tuck the blocks from such tables out of the way, into their own part of the buffer cache... but that is not the same thing as guaranteeing they'll stay there. If you over-populate the Keep Pool, then its LRU mechanism will kick in and age its contents out just as efficiently as an unsegregated buffer cache would.
Functionally, therefore, there can be no guarantees. The best you can do is create a sufficiently large Keep Pool, and then choose the tables that will use it with care such that they donâ€™t swamp themselves, and start causing each other to age out back to disk.
Thanks and Regards
