Integrating Workplan structure between OP and P6

Hi All/Dean,
While integrating the workplan structure between OP and P6 using PIP, the entire WBS structure of OP is sent to P6 and the further addition of WBS/activities and resource assignment in P6 are sent back to OP back.
Here the question is whats the use of integrating the numerous WBS/activties created on P6 to be seen back in OP? The OP WBS structure will become bulky if we create more activities (1000s of activities) in Primavera for planning, scheduling and resource assignment and integrates the workplan strcuture to OP.
Is there any way to integrate only few WBS or activities instead of sending the bulky WBS to OP in Workplan integration?
Thanks

Hi, sorry for the late reply, I somehow missed seeing this post and had some vacation recently.
I think you are aware that you can select to roll up your WBS from P6 if you integrate with the financial structure only, and yes, it's unfortunate but we do not allow that to happen with the workplan integration.
Part of the reason this was done is that we built the integration based on best practices we found out from customers who have built their own integrations. For most of them, they planned to actively manage their project schedules in P6 and only worried about collecting cost in EBS and therefore planned to integrate only with the Financial structure at a very summarized level. Some other customers (but definitely fewer) would want the full WBS in EBS and P6. This was most common for customers without large WBS. If someone wants to actively use a workplan on a project then it makes sense they would want to see all of the activities in both application's WBS.
The major thing you lose if you do integration to the financial structure is that we don't send percent complete like we do to the workplan structure. For some customers this isn't an issue since they are fine with reporting % complete out of P6, for others they want to see it along with the costs in EBS. We do have this down as an enhancement request though for the future.
I hope this has clarified the situation for you.

Dean

  • Different Drive Structure Between Principal and Mirror

    We havea 2-node (active/active) cluster with four failover instances installed. We use a dedicated drive for data files, one for log files and one for tempdb per instance .Predicting that we will be adding more instances in the future, we realized that we
    would run out of drive letters to set up. We intend to switch over and use mounted volumes instead that way we only use 1 drive letter per instance and will be able to add many more failover instances in the future. However, seen as we have over 150 databases
    across all current instances, reconfiguring the cluster drive setup will require a lot of time and work and is not in the immediate plans for our team (me :( ). I need to mirror as many databases as possible, based on priority, to a DR server on a geographically
    remote location. Since this server isn't setup with SQLServer yet, I was wondering if it would be a good idea to have the DR server set up with mount volumes now and establish mirroring between our production environment and the DR server that way so that
    at least half the battle is won. I am aware that the best practice for mirroring is to have the same drive structure between the principal and mirror server, however it is not a requirement. The only example issue I have seen with this set up is when you add
    a data file to a database and the DDL statements get sent over to the mirror and will fail since the drive setup will not be the same. This is something I am willing to deal with since adding data files to our databases is not something we do often, or at
    all. As new databases are added and mirrored, the WITH MOVE clause of the RESTORE statement can be used to place the files in their correct location in the mirror server.
    Other than this, are there any other things to consider for this kind of mirroring set up?
    Leroy G. Brown

    Hi Leroy G,
    According to my knowledge, you can deploy database mirroring with different drive structure. And the known issue is that if you add a file to the Principal, the DDL commands get applied across the Mirror, then your database will go into a suspended
    status until you duplicate the path on the mirror.
    However, as your post, you can use WITH MOVE option to create database on Mirror server. For more details, please follow the steps in this
    blog.
    Meanwhile, about setting up database mirroring, I recommend you review this online
    article.
    Thanks,

  • Can any please explain the integration business process between PS and CS

    Dear Guru's
    Can any please explain the integration business process between Project systems (PS) and customer service (CS).
    Business Process: We do machinery Erection or commissioning, later we do provide service warranty for one year.
    How we map this Business scenario in sap.
    Regards,
    Bhanu

    basic steps for such a process would be
    1) Use PS functionality for your machinery erection or commisioning work. Once the physical work is completed then close porject
    2) Use CS functionality for warranty and service - set up the work as a functional location on customer site (PM/CS functionality)
    3) Use service order to manage any service calls on the object which could require billing via SD module - bill value may be zero if under warranty

  • Transporting Integration Directory objects between N and N+1 landscapes

    I have a question regarding the transport of Integration Directory objects.
    We are implementing N+1 PI 7.3 (java only) Development and QA systems. The N+1 PI systems are a copy of the Production Support (N) PI Development and QA systems. As part of the N+1 build we will also configure the business systems in the SLD for this landscape. Is it possible to transport objects from the "N" landscape into the "N+1" landscape? These changes would only be new objects that would not overwrite anything in N+1. For anything that is also being changed in N+1 we would perform manually. Is there anything special needed when setting up the business system in the SLD for this scenario?
    Thanks!

    Thanks Barry
    That menu option is available to me too but there is no option to use CTS+ in the pull down list. 
    I can't visit imageshack from work so I can't see your screenshot but I'd bet you have the option to export using "Open CTS+ Organizer" on the first menu too - I don't. 
    I've obviously got some config missing but, given I can transport ESR and SLD objects, I'm struggling to know what.

  • Help in integrating scroll bar between photoshop and dreamweaver

    Hello,
    I'm a newbie to integration of other adobe products with dreamweaver. However, i was able to figure out the part where i can finally integrate my design from photoshop to dreamweaver.
    Now my problem is that in my design i have a beautiful scroll bar. I can't seem to find an answer on the web for integrating the same design of this scroll bar into dreamweaver and make it functional in dreamweaver.
    Just a bit of background on what i did is that i sliced my pages in photoshop and imported them into dreamweaver and everything is good. The only thing that's missing is making this design functional and most importantly the scroll bar.
    Really appreciate anyone's help!!!

    Hi there,
      You can try using a jQuery custom scrollbar. They're pretty easy to set up and you can find them here:
    http://www.net-kit.com/jquery-custom-scrollbar-plugins/
      Once you find a plugin that is close to your design, it's just a matter of switching out color/images/etc.

    David,
    Open KOMK in se11 / data type and check the meaning.
    Its a header bridge structure between pricing and other application.
    You can find meaning of structure attributes there.
    Only the names are different but meaning of them remains the same in CRM.

  • Is it a Bug? Integration between Dreamweaver and Fireworks is broken in somewhere?

    I can not upload images related my topic here but you can see
    it in the same topic at
    http://www.fireworksguruforum.com/index.php?showtopic=14282
    I use CS3 Suite. It is a big trouble for me in working on
    real pages. Integration is broken in somewhere else and after that
    point it becomes impossible to work on Fireworks through
    Dreamweaver.
    I've made test to show this trouble and I narrowed the
    problem to the pictures as shown in the figures below,
    1) In figure one I am creating a completely new Fireworks
    file as arrow.png with two frames and one slice in it. After I am
    saving it as .png I am exporting it as .html with images in /images
    subfolder.
    2) After saving and closing the file in Fireworks, in figure
    two, I am opening the html in Dreamweaver and changing the page
    properties by writing zeros to page margins and by changing the
    default font.
    -----I guess in this point something happens which breaks the
    integration between FW and DW--------because;
    3) In figure three I am opening the .png through Dreamweaver
    (by "Edit") and changes the place and size of the slice a little
    bit
    4) When I press Done in Fireworks I see this picture in
    figure four in Dreamweaver which shows integration between FW and
    DW about table structure is broken. (In this point if I add any
    behaviur to the slice DW doesn't recognize it, or any other change
    in FW can not be recognized by DW)
    5) In order to show this broken integration in table
    sturucture, I am putting a new slice to png when Editing from DW in
    FW.
    6) When I click on Done in DW I see this picture on the
    figure six. Beacuse FW doesn't have any effect on html's table
    structure code.

    I can reproduce your results, but I don't consider this a
    bug; just a
    limitation of Roundtrip editing.
    You can't add or change slices without re-exporting the html
    from
    Fireworks. Roundtrip is for image editing, not for altering
    the table
    structure. If I edit, and re-export, my table remains intact.
    If you want to edit the slices and resulting html, open the
    PNG file
    independently of Dreamweaver, change your slices and images
    and then
    choose File > Update HTML (this option is not available
    when in
    Roundtrip mode). FW will ask you to locate the html file.
    When located,
    you will have the options of
    Replace Images and Their HTML - replaces the previous
    Fireworks HTML.
    Update Images Only - overwrites only the images.
    As an aside, the rigid table created by FW is rarely
    desirable for a
    production web site.

  • Differences between trigger and Integrity Constraints

    waht are the differences between trigger and Integrity Constraints

    waht are the differences between trigger and Integrity ConstraintsConstraints are to be preferred:
    "Declarative Ease
    Define integrity constraints using SQL statements. When you define or alter a table, no additional programming is required. The SQL statements are easy to write and eliminate programming errors. Oracle controls their functionality. For these reasons, declarative integrity constraints are preferable to application code and database triggers. The declarative approach is also better than using stored procedures, because the stored procedure solution to data integrity controls data access, but integrity constraints do not eliminate the flexibility of ad hoc data access.
    Centralized Rules
    Integrity constraints are defined for tables (not an application) and are stored in the data dictionary. Any data entered by any application must adhere to the same integrity constraints associated with the table. By moving business rules from application code to centralized integrity constraints, the tables of a database are guaranteed to contain valid data, no matter which database application manipulates the information. Stored procedures cannot provide the same advantage of centralized rules stored with a table. Database triggers can provide this benefit, but the complexity of implementation is far greater than the declarative approach used for integrity constraints."

  • Comparisons between WLI and SeeBeyond e*Gate Integrator?

    Does anyone have any point of view about similarities and differences between
    WLI and SeeBeyond e*Gate Integrator? I have some familiarity with e*Gate, and
    I'm just starting to learn about WLI (although I'm pretty familiar with J2EE
    and WebLogic Server).
    It appears to me that WLI assumes that data collaborations between systems will
    go from binary to XML, then perhaps to transformed XML, and then to binary.
    I'm perfectly happy with using XML, but I wonder if it would be practical in
    some cases to skip the XML representation and translate directly from one
    binary representation to another. From what little I know of e*Gate, the most
    straightforward transformations are just binary to binary, although XML
    transformations are available.

  • Integration between SD and QM - urgent

    Can someone post the integration points between SD and QM.
    It's urgent
    Thanks in advance

    QM in Sales and Distribution
    Purpose
    The Quality Management (QM) component supports Sales and Distribution (SD) by processing quality inspections and creating quality certificates for deliveries. A quality inspection for a delivery allows you to check the quality of a material or product before it leaves the manufacturer's or vendor's premises.
    The Quality Management (QM) component supports your sales and distribution activities:
    ·        With quality inspections for a delivery (based on sales organization, customer, and material)
    ·        With quality certificates for a delivery (with reference to sales organization, customer, and material)
    ·        By managing customer terms of delivery
    Integration
    If a delivery is created in SD for a product or material, the QM component automatically creates an inspection lot for the delivery items that must be inspected. A delivery item must be inspected if the corresponding control parameters are active in the SD and QM components. The delivery can be released for the goods issue posting, provided a usage decision to accept the goods is made for the inspection lot.
    When the system creates quality certificates, it accesses the data in Sales and Distribution (for example, customer master and sales order), Quality Management (for example, inspection specification and inspection results), and Materials Management (for example, batch specification).
    Features
    ·        The system creates an inspection lot when a delivery is created. The system supports quality inspections for inspection lots with the following origins:
    ¡        Delivery with reference to a sales order
    ¡        Delivery without reference to a sales order
    ¡        General delivery (without reference to a customer)
    ·        In the control data, you can specify that the inspection lot must be accepted as a prerequisite for the goods issue and you can also indicate whether the inspection should be carried out during the goods issue or by the ship-to party.
    ·        If the stocks for a material are managed in batches, you can select suitable batches on the basis of batch characteristic values.
    ·        With the help of the where-used list, you can determine which raw material batches were included in which batches of a final product.
    ·        You can identify which batches were dispatched to a customer with which deliveries.
    ·        You can create customer-specific quality certificates together with the other shipping documents, print them out or transmit them by fax, and archive them in an optical archive using ArchiveLink. If customers have the required authorization, they can also create and retrieve quality certificates over the Internet.

  • How does the integration between CRM and SD occur

    How does the integration between CRM and SD occur?  Is only via ALE and are there config steps in CRM to ensure the correct data mapping between CRM and SD?
    So, if I create an order or quote in CRM how is it then created in SD?  Or do they share the same data store.
    thanks

    Hi John,
    Here is good documentation regarding Data Exchange for Sales Transactions: the CRM Enterprise and the ERP System are two different repositories, If you create the Sales Order in CRM then they will be replicated into SD (using CRM Middleware, BDoc's)
