Ideas for SCM/APO in iPhone/Blackberry/Android

Hi everybody!
I would like to know your personal needs currently that could be solved by an mobile application.
This application would be connected to a R/3 or APO backend system.
What scenarios you can think of that could be very helpful to you?
Examples:
- See the list of Sales Orders for a product.
- Open Pur. Order n. X to get vendor information.
- Check Stock information for a product.
What can you think of?
Points to be awarded to everybody that answers!
Thank you!
Will

Hi Will,
Would (lets) assume iPhone folks need some info only on how good a business is APO making.. So my take would be more on
-Some measure of expected lost sales. may be some macro in DP/SNP. some limited dimensions of customers - products - time to be fixed. This would be approximate
-Some measure of Average cost of transportation/overruns. Assuming business was expecting deployment and load building to save on average shipping costs. This can again be with some macro.. but seems quite complicated to me. As actual shipments and freight costs would need to obtained from ECC.
-Some compsite mesaure of service level by some dimesions of customer product time.
-Demand Plan over runs.. excess inventory reports.. over decided base.
etc.. I think this poll would make best sense if you ask some SCM heads of some leading firms across industry verticals. Clearly totally different things are important to different firms. Coca firms are most interested in retail metics, steel makers would be more interested in how well PPDS is loading he resources and such.

BAPI Function Module for SCM APO Tcode /SAPAPO/AC42

Hi,
I want to know the BAPI Function Modules for SCM APO Tcode /SAPAPO/AC42.
   This BAPI FM should return the column values "Remaining Prod Alloc" and "Incoming Order Quantity" when we give
   below details as inputs for the Tcode /SAPAPO/AC42
        Product Allocation Group
        Product
        Allocation Procedure
        prod Alloc step
        Product Alloc Object (Characteristics of Product Alloc Group)
        Plant (Characteristics of Product Alloc Group)
        Customer Group 5 (Characteristics of Product Alloc Group)
    Reward points if helpful.
Thanks,
Mich

Hi,
You should be able to get the information using the standard BAPI (Assuming you are using SCM5.0) BAPI_APOPAL_INSERT in the transaction BAPI.
ProductAllocationAPO.DataInsert
Interface to Import Product Allocation Data Functionality
This method is used to adopt data from OLTP systems for product allocation in the global availability check.
You can do the following using the method:
Adopt new data
You can adopt new characteristics combinations or new time series. Newly created characteristics combinations have the status Active and are therefore included in the product allocation check.
Change existing data
You can overwrite existing data if you have set the interface parameter ALLOW_UPDATE. You can set the status of existing characteristics combinations to Active if you set the interface parameter UPDATE_STATUS. If the characteristics combination does not exist, the system creates it.
The product allocation quantity is overwritten for existing time series. If you also want to change the incoming orders quantity, you must set the interface parameter UPDATE_INCOMING_ORDER_QTY. If the time series does not exist, the system creates it.
Prerequisite
To be able to use this method, you must have made all the Customizing settings for product allocation. For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for SAP APO under Global Available-to-Promise -> Product Allocation.

Single app for iPhone, BlackBerry, Android and windows

Hi,
will there be single
SharePoint app common to all type of phone (iPhone, Android, BlackBerry, windows)
or unique for each.
Thanks in advance

As this is a browser app and accessed using Crome, Firefox, Internet explorer, etc
You need to make sure you have tested your app on all such browser and then it can be same.
Normally the features and functionality on all browser are different so some people keep different apps.

Video format for viewing on both iphone and android devices?

hi there,
what's the best format to export a video to so that it can be seen on both android and iphone devices? does adobe support this or is there another program that i'd have to buy? any help or insight would be appreciated.
thanks!

H.264 works for both iOS devices and Android devices. Here's a page with a list of the formats and specs for Android:
http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html
If you choose H.264 as the format in Adobe Media Encoder, you can then choose from a bunch of encoding presets for specific devices, including various iOS devices.

JavaFX roadmap ... emerging platforms ... (iPhone/iPad, Android ...)

Hi,
This url talks about the roadmap.
http://javafx.com/roadmap/
It seems to be upto 2014.
Request the JavaFX Product Managers to develop and state their plans for the emerging platforms. (iPhone/iPad, Android, Blackberry OS ? )
Cheers ...
/rk

See http://fxexperience.com/2012/01/2012-javafx-resolutions/ for an unofficial top 10 goals for this year.
Note resolution #5 (embedded):
"As announced at JavaOne 2011, the new embedded platforms coming from Oracle (CDC) will be using JavaFX as the UI technology. That is slated for final release in 2013 along with Java 8 and JavaFX 3. However, there is a lot of work that has to be done this year to make this a reality, including adding touch event support to the platform. Having working embedded prototypes for this year is high on the list of goals for JavaFX!"
I could be wrong here, but I believe the Android prototype shown at JavaOne was based on very early CDC prototype and the potential strategy for iOS support would include bundling an iOS port of the CDC with apps. My guess is that the JavaFX team is working on Android/iOS support (and additional ARM/Intel platforms) but is not at liberty to discuss this work and roadmap in detail at this stage (but that is just my guess - I don't know).
Also, as resolution #1 (open source) progresses, future plans will become naturally more transparent.
The goal is to complete the open source process this year.

SCM , APO and Livecache administration

Hi SAP Guru's
Can any one guide me what is role and responsibilities of SCM and APO and Live cache administration as part of Basis.
I will be great help if any one can guide me in SCM and APO and LIVE cache administration.
Waiting for Reply
Farooqui

Hi Farooqui
Since this Forum handling more application related topic, it is better to post your question in different Forum "MaxDB/liveCache ".
Above MaxDB/liveCache is handling more basis and liveCache related topic.
As a general information, SAP provides following documens that describe task and check point related to SCM system and liveCache. So I recommend you to check following 3 documents.
URL : http://service.sap.com/solutionmanagerbp
Number
44            System Monitoring for SAP APO (3.x) / mySAP SCM (4.x/5.0)
34            Monitoring and Administration for SCM / APO
42            Checklist for Recovery of SAP APO liveCache >= 7.4
Also there are some documents that describe liveCache behavior, so for better understanding,
I also recommend you to check following 2 documents. (The information is bit old. but it might be helpful to understand liveCache).

IDES-Scenarios for SAP SCM APO?

Hello!
Lately I have been working with SAP ECC on an IDES system and help.sap.com provides nice example scenarios on how to use it (things like: how to specifiy production plans and orders for building a motor bike in the IDES-Company).
But now working with SAP SCM, and i cannot find any scenarios describing how to use the system with the included training data.
Anybody knows where the examples are or if they exist?
Thanks a lot!
Michael

Client concept for SAP SCM APO and SAP TM

Hello,
We are installing SAP SCM APO 5.1 (SNP, gATP, DP) and SAP TM 7.0 (ramp up). Both connect via CIF to ECC 6.0 SP3. As far as my knowledge goes for CIF, both master data and transactional data is exchanged via CIF.
In ECC we have a three client concept:
100 customizing only
200 customizing + master data (golden client)
300 customizing + master data + transaction data
Can we use a similar model for TM and SCM APO as well? Should we then only connect ECC-300 to TM-300 and ECC300 to SCM-300 via CIF?
I have also heard that also some ECC customizing is transferred via CIF to SCM/TM. Is that true and does that change this model?
Regards,
Rob Veenman
SAP Basis.

Rob,
As a general rule of thumb, for each ECC client you will probably want an SCM client. From your landscape description, it is not clear to me in which clients you perform the everyday functions of development/test/production, but I guess you have already worked that out. Without knowing exactly how you manage your environment, I will say that it is probably a good idea to have active CIF connections between each of the three pairs of clients. Once you have set up a single connection between your first pair (ECC/SCM), you will find that setting up the second and third is pretty trivial.
Yes, quite a bit of ATP configuration can be CIFd across. Typically, you do this one time, and then lock the transfer of config out (there is a config setting in SCM to stop further transfer of config). From that point forward, any config that must be parallelled in both systems is usually done manually in both systems. Notable exceptions are Factory Calendars, units of measure, and Fiscal Periods, which can be pulled across from ECC to SCM any time you want via standard program.

Hi dennisalpizar07,
check this:

Hope this helps.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry.
