Dear Raj
In the planning book, you can select more than one product at a time. When you click on one product, in planning book it will show you the data for particular product. In same case business users want to see the all the information together for more than one product.
In this case we can select these multiple products and use this load data icon which will load the data for all the products together. For example
Month1 Month 2 Month 3
Product A Demand 10 10 10
Product B Deamnd 20 20 20
When you select both the products and load the data by using load icon you will see Total demand as below in the planning book.
Month 1 Month 2 Month 3
Demand 30 30 30
Now with the Header information, you can select the respective characteristic on which you want see this data disaggregated.
Please let us know if you have any more doubts regarding it.
Thanks

Display Planning data (for demand planning) in another UoM
Hi All,
The Planning area UoM is in "L". We have products whose base UoM is KG and some in L. In BW we convert all to L and load into Planning area.
The Product master is CIFed to APO and has the conversion between L and KG.
we have a requirement to view the planning data in Kilo tons i.e 1,000,000 KG.
Have maintained a Mass UoM called ZKT in CUNI transaction and maintained the conversion that 1ZKT = 1,000,000 KG. Also have defined an ISO code for the same.
Now when we load the data in the planning book the default UoM is L. When we go to user setting and maintain alternate UoM as Tons "TO", the system converts the data to tons and displays it. no matter what is the criteria used in header selection.
But when we try to display data as ZKT UoM get a error msg that conversion from L to ZKT is not possible as the conversion is not maintained in Product master.
But when we select material code (SKU) as the show condition and also in the filter condition use material code (SKU) and make a selection, the system converts the planning data from L to ZKT.
The question is when the system can convert L to TO at any character level as long as the product master has the L to KG conversion, why is not able to convert L to ZKT.
Why is the system able to convert L to ZKT for individual SKU's and only when the show condition is Material code (SKU).
Would appreciate your quick reply.
Thanks,
NitinHi Nitin,
We have same scenario right away in our system. Some of our material have a conversion in R/3 for example: 1Unit=10BULTOS, then CIFing into APO.
The scenario is that, once we planned already in APO- we dont want to go back in r/3, any changes should be remained in APO. What we did is that we maintained the CIF user setup. Maybe you can try this as well without affecting other Uom.
Cheers! -
Planning Book Data outside planning horizon
Hi Experts,
I am new to APO "Data partly after horizon 01.04.2010 to 01.04.2016" message is coming when accessing planning book in our production system, not in Testing/Quality system .refer attachment
when I gone through the forum we have to extend planning area using program /SAPAPO/TS_PAREA_INITIALISE.
To perform this activity is back up of the cube compulsory we have to do?
Please let me know is any other steps to follow to resolve this issue, with this issue the users are not able to access planning book.
Thanks & Regards,
Srihari.MHi Srihari,
Check the horizon of the planning area and compare with your data view, right click on Planning area and select "Created Time Series Objects"
for example
Your Data view should not cross the End Date shown, which is the reason for your error. Also check the past horizon.
Please check and confirm

SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization, Demand Planning Add-In for Microsoft Excel 1.0
Does anyone know if the DP Add-in for Microsoft Excel is doing well. How does it pull/push data on the DP tool? Is it fast, and is it a free add-in ?
Hi Satish
As you know business always loves to work in excel and if we offer this possibility they are going to appreciate it very much.
We have already perform PoC for the excel frontend in out business scenario and looks really positive. At the same time, I will also say that there is still big room for improvement for SAP. SAP is already coming with better excel front end but only with IBM demand solution.
so going back to our topic, I would say surely you should go for it. It would be really great if you have data view with less or minimum key figures should be exported to excel where business require to update or maintain key figures. If I am correct, I think you are unable to use it for aggregate forecasting or you have default macro´s to be execute immediately.
In summary, it´s worth to explore the option to see if it works for your business. I am sure business users will be very much happy with this.
Please let me know if this information helps you.

Please find below the detailed steps to define a planning book:
A planning book defines the content and the layout of the interactive planning screen. Planning books are used in Demand Planning and Supply Network Planning. They allow you to design the screen to suit individual planning tasks. A planning book is based on a planning area. You can create several user-specific data views in a planning book. In this step, you create a planning book for Demand Planning.
Procedure
1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
SAP SCM menu Advanced Planning and Optimization Demand Planning Environment Current settings Define Planning Book
Transaction code /SAPAPO/SDP8B
2. Enter the planning book DP_001 and choose Create.
The Planning Book Wizard dialog box is displayed.
3. Make the following entries:
Field name User action and values
Planning Book Enter the planning book DP_001
Planning book text Demand Planning
Planning area Select the planning area DP_001 and choose Enter
Manual Proportion Maintenance X
Promotion X
Univariate forecast X
4. Choose Continue.
5. Assign the following key figures from planning area to the planning book by using drag and drop or choose Add all new Key Figures to add all key figures:
Description Value Comment
History 9AVHISTORY Relevant for Scenario MTS
Forecast 9ADFCST Relevant for Scenario MTS and VMI
Promotion 1 9APROM1 Relevant for Scenario MTS
Forecast (addition.) 9AAFCST Relevant for Scenario MTS
Planned Price 9APRICEFC Relevant for Scenario MTS
Sales Forecast 9AREVFC Relevant for Scenario MTS
Production (Planned) 9APPROD Relevant for Scenario MTS
Manual Correction 9AMANUP Relevant for Scenario MTS
Additional Field 1 9AADDKF1 Relevant for Scenario VMI
Additional Field 2 9AADDKF2 Relevant for Scenario VMI
Additional Field 3 9AADDKF3 Relevant for Scenario MTS
Additional Field 4 9AADDKF4 Relevant for Scenario MTS
Additional Field 5 9AADDKF5 Relevant for Scenario MTS
The Proportional factor APODPDANT key figure is automatically added to your planning area when you create the planning area. You do not have to add this key figure yourself and assign it to the planning book in this step. When you create the respective view, this key figure will be automatically there for your selection.
6. Choose Continue.
7. Assign the following characteristics from the planning area to the planning book by using drag and drop:
Description Value
APO Location 9ALOCNO
APO Product 9AMATNR
Brand 9ABRAND
Sales Organization 9AVKORG
APO Destination Loc. 9ALOCTO
The characteristic 9AVERSION (APO Planning Version) will be added to the planning book automatically after you complete this step.
9. Choose Continue to go to the Data View tab (the Key Fig. Attrib tab is available in the change mode only after you have completed the planning book).
10. On the Data view tab; enter the following values:
Field name User action (Scenario MTS) User action (Scenario VMI)
Data view DP_Standard VMI_Standard
Data view description Demand Planning Demand Planning
TB profile ID (future) DP_4Weeks_5Month DP_4Weeks_5Month
TB profile ID (history) DP_12Month DP_12Month
Status 3 (Changeable) 3 (Changeable)
11. Choose Enter.
12. Select Visible and select the date as of which you wish the past planning horizon to be visible when this data view is opened.
13. Choose Continue, and assign the following key figures from the planning book to the data view for either the MTS or the VMI scenario, keeping the same order as in the table:
Make-to-Stock
Key Figures Description
9AVHISTORY History
9ADFCST Forecast
9APROM1 Promotion 1
9AAFCST Forecast (additional)
9APRICEFC Planned Price
9AREVFC Sales Forecast
9APPROD Production (Planned)
9AMANUP Manual Correction
9AADDKF4 Additional Field 4
Vendor-Managed Inventory
Key Figures Description
9AADDKF1 Additional Field 1
9AADDKF2 Additional Field 2
9ADFCST Forecast
14. Choose Complete.
15. When the Planning Wizard prompt appears, choose Yes to complete the planning book and data view.
16. On the initial screen, change the planning book you have just created by choosing Edit.
17. If you are installing the VMI scenario, continue with step 21 (entering a free text for the key figures).
If you are installing the Make-to-Stock scenario, repeat steps 9 to 12 to create the following views:
Views View Description Key Figures
DP_CLP COLLABORATIVE DEMAND PLANNING
History
Forecast
Forecast (additional)
DP_RELEASE DEMAND PLANNING - RELEASE VIEW
Manual Correction
18. On the Data View tab page, specify the following TB profile IDs for the DP_RELEASE view,
Field name User action and values
TB profile ID (future) DP_12Month
TB profile ID (history) blank
19. Create the remaining views for the Make-to-Stock scenario according to the steps 9-12:
Views View Description Key Figures
DP_LOGISTICS DEMAND PLANNING - LOGISTICS VIEW
Forecast
Production (Planned)
DP_SALES DEMAND PLANNING - SALES VIEW
History
Forecast
Forecast (addition.)
Planned Price
Sales Forecast
Manual Correction
DP_PROP DEMAND PLANNING - PROPORTIONAL FACTOR VIEW Proportional Factor
To modify the proportional factors manually, you need to create a separate data view containing only the APODPDANT key figure to control the authorization to change these factors. This key figure is a default value in the view and is thus invisible, so you do not need to assign any key figure from the right list in this view.
20. Choose Complete.
21. Go to the Key fig. attributes tab, select the FreeText radio button and make the following entries for each key figure. Choose Save Setting after entering the data for each key figure (depending on your scenario).

Steps to create macros in macro wrokbench:
3.7 Creating Macros (SAP APO)
Use
You can use advanced macros to perform complex calculations quickly and easily. Macros are executed either directly by the user or automatically at a predefined point in time. When defining advanced macros, you work in a special desktop environment known as the MacroBuilder.
In total, four macros are created in the Demand Planning building block. They are all defined for the planning book DP_001. You create three macros for forecast calculation according to the following instruction. The chapter Creating the Macro for Consensus-Based Planning describes how to create the alert macro for consensus-based planning.
In the DP_STANDARD view of the planning book DP_001, you create two macros:
The first macro is used for the standard and consensus-based planning. The system calculates the arithmetic average of Statistical Forecast, Sales Forecast and Logistics Forecast, the result of average forecast data plus Promotion Data is inserted in the Final Forecast cell. It enables the user to consider the forecast input and the promotion plan from different departments within the company. The planner can make manual adjustments and enter the final agreed forecast into the Final Forecast cell. All of this information can be shown in the planning book screen.
The second macro multiplies the Final forecast data with the Planned price to calculate the sales volume. The third macro is an alert macro used for highlighting exceptional situations in consensus-based planning.
In the DP_SALES view of the planning book DP_001, you create the fourth macro. This macro multiplies the Final forecast data with the Planned price to calculate the sales volume, which is the same as the one in the standard view.

Function Module BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL2 or BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL can help you.
For BAPI BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL, the parameters are:
1) PLANNINGBOOK - the name of your planning book
2) DATA_VIEW - name of your data view
3) KEY_FIGURE_SELECTION - list of key figures you want to read
4) SELECTION - selection parameters which describe the attributes of the data you want to read (e.g. the category or brand). This is basically a list of characteristics and characteristic values.
BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL2 is very similar to BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAI but is only available from SCM 4.1 onwards.
For the complete list of parameters, you can go to transaction SE37, enter the function module names above and check out the documentation.
Please post again if you have questions.
Hope this helps. -
Possible to call a transaction from a planning book using a macro button?
Hi All,
Is it somehow possible to call a transaction using a macro button in the planning book? Also, the current selection should be passed as input parameters to the transaction.
In my example, I am trying to run the transaction /SAPAPO/MC90 - Release to Supply Network Planning from the Demand Planning Planning Book/Data View. This way if planners need to change forecasts mid month for specific selections, they can easily transfer to SNP without having to go out of interactive planning.
Thank you,
MariaHello Maria,
It's possible to call a transaction from a planning book using a macro button.
What you can do is ..... Create a function module and inside it use the command "Call Transaction Tcode" (ABAPer can do this) to call ur specific transaction. And this module can in turn be called from your macro. Please find the below link which explanis how to call a function module from a macro. Do let me know if you need more information on this.

Hi All,
Is it possible to create multiple Planning Books in same Planning Area?
If yes, how?
Please reply.Hi Ashish,
Planning Book: Planning Book is a content and layout for designing a Interactive Demand planning(IDP).
we need to design the PB's for different demand planners/group of planners.
we have the option for creation of macros for execution in planning books.
A planning book is based on a Planning Area.there is no limitation for the planning books we can create number of PB's for one PA(Planning Area)
For creating PB Tcode is : /SAPAPO/SDP8B
select the radio button for creating PB
Provide PB name and description.and the we need to provide our PA, So at this time what ever the Char and Kefg are available in PA all are existed in PB also
then you can assign what ever you want the Kefg and Char assign to PA to PB.
And the select check boxes related to UVM.MLR composite and Promotion.
we need to select this check boxes what ever you want.
Repeat the same procedure for all the Power users Individually.
and also create DV's for each PB
And better to find this bellow link very useful.

Time bucket not displaying in planning book
When I opened planning book, the time bucket is not displaying as it used to be. I tried to select CVC to be displayed in the planning book and got the following error message:
@5C\QError@ Insufficient information about read period transferred
@5C\QError@ Error reading data - Planning book cannot be processed further
Insufficient information about read period transferred
Message no. /SAPAPO/TSM231
This internal error should not occur during normal processing. However if this message is displayed, contact your system administration or the SAP hotline quoting the message number.
Any idea what went wrong?Hi Nic,
Either someone deleted the time bucket profile, or else the periodicities in the time bucket profile are not in line with the periodicity allowed in your planning area.
Go to Advanced Planning and Optimization-> Demand Planning -> Environment -> Current Settings -> Maintain Time Buckets Profile for Demand Plng and Supply Network Plng, or directly use the tcode "/SAPAPO/TR30".
Check that your time bucket profiles ZDP_PBP_9Q & ZDP_PBP_5Q exist by using F4 help, and also select them to see what periods are used in the time bucket profile e.g. weeks, days, etc.
If you don't find the time bucket profile, then they need to be created (based on names, my guess is that *9Q will contain 9 quarters, and *5Q will contain 5 quarters). I expect that issue lies here itself.
If time buckets profile exist, then check the following:
1) Go to /sapapo/msdp_admin, select your planning area. See the storage bucket profile name in the "info" tab.
2) Go to /SAPAPO/TR32 (Periodicities for Planning Area). Give the name of the Storage bucket profile that you see in 1.
3) Check what periods are used in storage bucket profile.
4) Storage bucket profile needs to have lower periods maintained than the time bucket profile. e.g. assuming that your time bucket profile has quarters, then you need to have at least quarter maintained in storage bucket profile. Even if you have day or week or month selected in storage bucket profile, it's ok because these are smaller periods than quarters what you have in time bucket profile.
Also make a note if "post period" is checked. Note the name of "fiscal year variant" if that is maintained along with this tick. I hope you don;t need to go further but if above don;t resolve your issue, then we need to check the fiscal year variant.
Thanks - Pawan -

***************************************************************Hi user602232,
the batch logfile does not reveal any issues. It would be helpful to get more details:
1. what kind of data does not appear in the worksheets? Level values etc?
2. some more details about the demand plan setup and demand plan assignments would help.
The first things I would check:
a) was data collection successful
b) check the demand planner assignments
regards,

View db alerts generated in planning book A from within planning book B?
Hi,
I have a db alert macro implemented as a default macro in one of our SNP planning books/data view. This is correctly generating db alerts per the criteria coded into the macro. In Alert Monitor, the database alerts show the planning book (book A) and data view (view 1) from which the alerts were generated.
The planners monitoring this specific alert do not have/should not have access to planning book A and data view 1, but will have access to a different planning book (B)/data view (2) within the same planning area.
Is it possible to generate a db alert from a default macro residing in planning book A, data view 1 but have the db alert as viewed in Alert Monitor display a different planning book (B), data view (2) so that when the user launches Supply Network Planning by right clicking on the db alert, the user is taken to planning book B, data view 2 with the alert selection loaded?
In short, I need to generate db alerts via a default macro in one planning book/data view but must enable planners who monitor these alerts to do so in a different planning book, data view -- all within the same planning area.
I saw an earlier thread (id 4517019) that seemed to indicate this was possible to assign db alerts generated in one planning book to another planning book, but it was not clear how to implement this. We are on APO version 4.0. In the macro's Alert/status element properties I do see a section called 'Different Source' which allows me to specify a different planning book and macro. However, I do not understand how this is meant to be used and whether this will be useful to me.
I would appreciate any help you can offer.
Thanks!
- HeidiSaradha,
Thank you for your reply! I checked the various versions of SAP help and found that only as of Release SCM 4.1 can you assign the alerts that are generated in a planning book/ data view to another planning book/data view via the mechanism you explained. That tells me that perhaps in SCM 4.0 there is no straightforward way of doing this.
In 4.0, when I double click the macro alert element I see different attributes - one of them is in a section titled 'Different Source' and contains to fields - one that allows you to specify a planning book and the other to specify a macro in that planning book. I'm experimenting with that now to better understand what it's purpose is. If you have any idea, please let me know. Otherwise, thanks very much for your response!
Thanks,

Days supply is not populating in the planning book
Hi Experts,
When I select multiple products in the planning book, the value is papulating as total but if I drilled down to individual product then days supply(Key figure) values are not populating in the planning book.
Please let me know if any idea.
Regards,
HrishiFrom what you mention it looks like you do not use the standard SNP Planning Book. Was the macro inactive so that you had to regenerate?
When you move a macro from workbench to level change it should not require to be regerated.
Please check if following macros are active (green) under level change in sequence
Determine Workdays
Layout Attributes
Drill (Level)
Else compare the macros and sequence in the standard SNP Planning Book with the Planning Book you are using.
The Day's Supply (All: Day's Supply) and Determine workdays macros are essential for populating the day's supply keyfigure.
Thanks,
Somnath

Elvis with X11 support - PKGBUILD
Building the other 2 elvis PKGBUILDs in the AUR is broken, and they are without X11 support. I'm wondering if I should submit this PKGBUILD, which compiles and works fine, and includes X11 and x86_64 support and the help documentation, to the AUR. #
