Integration Test and UAT - planning and document templates

Hey all
we are planning Integration Test and UAT currently
I am perfectly aware of what you need in an e.g. out-dated classical APO-project with integration to ECC, BI etc
But how do you do that in S&OP?
We do not have a 3-system landscape with Developemt-Test-Production or more, we just have a test tennant and production
Is there somewhere a recommended and described procedure?
Example: If we plan 3 test cycles for data migration, we need to get rid of master dat in the existing model, but than we cannot go on working on correcting at the same time. So we need to make a copy of the planning area and load. Sounds simple. But than we need to switch interface with every test cycle
there might be more things to consider which I am not aware of, especially as we are in a cloud
Who can help with documentation / check lists / experience ???
Same applies for a cutover plan ...
Thanks
Irmi

  • Integrating OneNote with Sharepoint 2013 - Custom document template, Change Content type, Checkout settings

    My client is migrating to SharePoint 2013 and the team uses OneNote Task list to track the project checklist. While I am successful extending the document template to support OneNote, still have some mysteries to solve as listed below:
    I am exploring Sharepoint 2013 and have tried to explain my problem clearly. If the information provided below is not clear enoug, let me know.
    1. Client has defined custom content type for all the documents in a library. I noticed OneNote comes with a Content type as "Folder". Is it possible to edit / modify the OneNote metadata to accommodate the predefined content types?
    2. In a library, I would like to defined multiple OneNote templates - Meeting, Task List, etc. I followed this article to create OneNote template for a library. Is is possible to edit the template and have "Meeting template" as default?
    3. A library can have multiple document types - word, excel, presentation, OneNote. In order for OneNote sync to work, below settings are mandatory (correct me if wrong):
            a. Checkout required should be set to "No"
            b. No versioning should be set
    My client's governance rule states "Checkout" is mandatory. How can I have a library to support OneNote with Checkout option enabled.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi TMUser,
    regarding your questions:
    1. One note is based on folder not content type, so by design it is different items. but i heard you can have a look up for this, you may try to change my onenote notebook folder content type so that it allows for additional metadata columns. this way, the
    onenone notebook can be handled just like other office documents. for more detail you may try from this example: http://www.sharepointcowbell.com/2013/01/onenote-and-metadata-in-sharepointpart.html
    2. for onenote products, you may ask at onenote forum for more detail, http://support.microsoft.com/ask-community/office/onenote-2013/,
    we can help for general discussion regarding this. you may take a look at this article, it mentioned about set template as default: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/onenotetips/archive/2008/05/21/templates-in-onenote.aspx
    3. for this question, you may check this kb, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2675731/en-us, i
    think it is by design, because onenote and other office are different, onenote is use shared, if we put checked out, then it will be set the limitation to only exclusive user.

  • Best practice for the test environment  &  DBA plan Activities    Documents

    Dears,,
    In our company, we made sizing for hardware.
    we have Three environments ( Test/Development , Training , Production ).
    But, the test environment servers less than Production environment servers.
    My question is:
    How to make the best practice for the test environment?
    ( Is there any recommendations from Oracle related to this , any PDF files help me ............ )
    Also please , Can I have a detail document regarding the DBA plan activities?
    I appreciate your help and advise
    Thanks

    Follow your build document for the same steps you used to build production.
    You should know where all your code is. You can use the deployment manager to export your configurations. Export customized files from MDS. Just follow the process again, and you will have a clean instance not containing production data.
    It only takes a lot of time if your client is lacking documentation or if you re not familiar with all the parts of the environment. What's 2-3 hours compared to all the issues you will run into if you copy databases or import/export schemas?

    3)which elements  should i gather requirements in workshop
    4)what exactly crm role in marketing planning and budjet planning and how BW/ECC integrated
    I will reward good points urgent need as i have session on monday
    Thanks

    HI Rajaram,
    For your workshop especially on marketing planning you have to have alot of questions to ask them.
    basically CRM marketing plan and BI BPS are closely integrated functionalities in campaign management.
    Functioanlly find out waht is that they are looking at to gain from budgeting.
    basically the lcient would like to fix a budget for the campaign / marketing plan for the financial year and then will break it down for further campaigns / marketing elements. at the end he would like to eveluate what is the budget he planned and what he actually spent. There is no nned of project systems even key figure planning can do plan vs actual cost analysis.
    based on this the marketing manager can plan the campaign success and there are standard analytics available for this.
    It is not easy to mention all those in this forum and i suggest you can go through these best practices and help in SAP.
    check them

  • Planning and Reports Server

    We are beggining the purchasing process for planning. We will have 235 liscened users for planning. So I am starting to look at hardware, not my strong suit. I have 50K, so I plan to get a quad with as much space as possible, typically do I need seperate boxes for the two products? I also have two fairly robust duals currently in production, one for essbase, one for analyzer. Would I be able to integreate reports into the analyzer server?? Also do most people have test environments for planning and reports??? thanks in advance..

    Actually, we are running Analyzer and Essbase on the same server and reports on a seperate server. I inherited the Essbase/Analyzer configuration and since it is working well, I'm not looking to mess with it. Reports worked out well because we had just decommissioned a server that was running SpiderMan (Hyperion Enterprise Web tool) when we took Spiderman down, it freed up a perfectly good server which was already configured for Internet access. The install of reports was smoother than we could have hoped for.oh, and we do not have planning..Still using Pillar.

    Usage of standard table maintenance tools is allowed to a limited extent:
    - Transaction SE16 allows the display function for this Dictionary object, but no maintenance.

    Hi Nicola,
    Have you disabled UAC on your terminal server ?
    Is this Windows 2008 Terminal Server ?
    Have you tried to install the client from the installation file and not from the browser page.
    For example, on your BPC server which has the Web Server role, in the PC_MS WebServer directory, there should be an installation folder with the executable files for the BPC and admin client. You can try to install BPC using the executable installation files.
    If UAC is still enabled, try to run the installation as Administrator, right click on the file and "Run As Administrator"
    Hope this helps.
    Kind Regards

  • Multiple currency planning and budgeting?

    Hi all
    We are having a requirement of planning and budgeting in same WBS with multiple currencies and also seeing reports in different currencies on single screen.
    Now has anybody explored this area and has anything to suggest.
    Thanks in anticipation
    Raman

    Hi Raman
    The following is the literature from SAP on the subject. You may find it useful.
    Planning and Budgeting in Any Currency
    Use
    International groups often use one uniform company code currency (group currency) in CO. However, it may be necessary to plan and budget in the respective local currency as the majority of costs will be incurred in the local currency. The local currency is usually the corresponding company code currency.
    Previously only budgeting of jobs (orders and projects) was possible in the local currency.
    From Release 4.70, you can also budget investement programs in the local currency. In addition, it is possible to plan investment programs, appropriation requests and jobs directly in the local currency.
    As was previously the case for orders and projects, plan and budget values for investment programs and appropriation requests are also saved in both the controlling area and local currencies defined in the master record of each object. If you change or re-specify the exchanged rates used, it is now possible to recalculate the values in the local currency using the values in the controlling area currency, and vice-versa.
    In reporting for IM, it is even possible to calculate evaluations in any report currency (plan, budget and assigned values). If the values are available in the specified report currency, they are issued unchanged. If they are not available, they are converted from the controlling area currency into the report currency.
    Effects on Existing Data
    Before Release 4.70, the plan values for appropriation requirements, were only saved in the controlling area currency. This was also the case if a local object currency was specified in the master record for the appropriation requirement. From Release 4.70, the plan values for appropriation requirements are always saved in the controlling area and local currencies. Therefore, you must adjust appropriation requests that were created in an earlier release and use a local currency that varies from the local object currency. The easiest way to do this is to use the program RAIMCRC2 to recalculate the plan values in the local object currency for appropriation requests whose plan values are in the controlling area currency (transaction IMCRC2, menu path: Financial Accounting  -> Investment Management -> Appropriation Requests -> Tools -> Recalculate Currency Plan for Appropriation Requests). Before you run the program, select the relevant option in the Process Control section of the initial screen.
    Effects on Customizing
    Adjustment of Planning and Budget Profiles
    To enable the planning of investment programs, appropriation requests and jobs in a transaction currency different to the controlling area currency, you must adjust the relevant planning profiles.
    To enable the budgeting of investment programs in a transaction currency different to the controlling area currency, you must adjust the relevant budget profiles.
    In the planning currency (or budgeting currency) section of the planning (or budget) profile, you must define the transaction currency in which planning (or budgeting) is to be executed:
    Only in the controlling area currency (default),
    Only in the object currency
    (= local currency defined in object master record ) or
    In a transaction currency chosen at the start of planning/budgeting
    (this option is not possible for appropriation requests).
    In the planning or budget profiles, you must also define the exchange rate types to be used for the conversion of total values that are not dependent on the fiscal year.
    To adjust the planning profiles, use the process steps:
    Maintain Planning Profiles  (investment programs)
    Maintain Planning Profile for Cost Planning (appropiation requests)
    To adjust the budgeting profiles, use the process steps:
    Define Budget Profiles for Investment Programs   (investment programs)
    Exchange Rate Types
    In the fiscal-year-dependent data of the CO planning versions, you must also define the exchange rate types to be used for conversion of plan values that are not dependent on the fiscal year.
    For conversion of fiscal-year-dependent budget values and fiscal-year-dependent plan values of appropriation request variants not yet assigned to a plan version, each exchange rate type is taken from the fiscal-year-dependent data of the CO planning versions 0.
    As the plan or budget values are stored in the transaction, controlling area, and local currencies, the exchange rates used must enable the conversion of the transaction currency into the controlling area and local currencies. Where necessary, the exchange rates used must be extended.
    To enter the exchange rate types, use the process step:
    Define Versions  (investment programs)
    Change Planning or Budget Currency
    If you always planned or budgeted existing investment programs/measures in the controlling area currency, it is not subsequently possible to change the planning or budget currency to the object currency in the planning or budget profiles. This conversion is not prevented in Customizing, but leads to an error when you next plan or budget existing investment programs/measures. Alternatively, you can convert the planning or budget currency into the transaction currency in the planning or budget profiles, and set the object currency indicator as default.
    A similar restriction does not exist for appropriation requests. You can change the planning currency in the planning profile at any time.
    Use the process step under "Adjust the Planning and Budgeting Profiles".
    Detailed Planning
    When you call up detailed planning from structure-based cost planning or revenue planning, the standard SAP planning profiles are used, to which the standard SAP planning layouts are assigned. These planning profiles cannot be changed in the planning transactions. Import the standard SAP planning layouts 1-401-IM, 1-402-IM, 1-403-IM, 1-701-IM,  1-702-IM and 1-703-IM using the transaction OKBF from client 000 in your client.
    To execute the import, choose the process step:
    Import Standard Planning Layouts.
    Reporting Currency for IM Reporting
    In IM reporting, if you want to be able to specify a reporting currency that is different to the controlling area and object currencies used in the investment program items or subordinate appropriation requests and measures, another exchange rate type is required for the due conversion of plan, budget, or values into the reporting currency. You define this exchange rate type in Customizing for the program type for the investment program to be reported ( Group Reporting).
    To enter additional reporting currencies, use the process step:
    Define Program Types  (investment programs)

  • I just changed phones and plans and was told the I would NOT see this data usage note again.   Please explain so a 75 year old man can understand.  Thanks  tom C

    I just changed phones and data plans and was told that I would NOT a data usage alert again.  I just got one.  What's up with that?

    Do you have Wifi at home? Do you do a lot of social media, internet surfing, video etc?  Go to settings/data usage/ and scroll up to see what is consuming your data.   You can restrict any of these apps from data usage by selecting one, then scrolling up and checking "restrict background data" for each app you wish to limit. Ones restricted will still function on wifi if available. Data can be restored to any app by unchecking a checked box.  That's a start.
    I keep my S5's data turned off unless I have a particula need when not near wifi. This month I'm near mid way through my billing period and have consumed around 29MB.  Not as much fun for sure but much easier on the wallet.  Caution, public wifi is likely not a secure connection.
    You also can set alert and limit levels for data use by your phone on the Data Usage screen of your phone.

  • $29.99 data plan and skype

           I purchased a new blackberry bold 9650 at a verizonwireless shop in Tempe, AZ early this month with $59.99/month voice and text plan and $29.99 data plan. The salesman asked me to try VZ navigator and he told me it was free for 1 month trial. I use skype mobile on my phone, I have purchased a unlimited world plan from skype. I received a message yesterday, saying my bill is $305.64, I was shocked.
           I'll continue to use skype on my phone. Can anybody tell me if Verizon will charge me for my skype messages or skype calls?
           I already called Verizon to take off vz navigator from my phone features. They charged me not only $9.99 per month but also megabytes usage.
           After 2 phone calls with them, they told me I would be charged $260.00 plus, too high for me.
           Any suggestions on how to use this phone without costing me extra money will be highly appreciated.

  • The Create List Item workflow action does not work in document library with document template

    My end goal is more complex but below is a basic example of the issue I’m having that just simply does not work.
    I'm trying to use a site workflow to create an item in a document library that has a document template applied to it but the file that gets created by the workflow is corrupt and cannot be opened.
    I created a document library and edited the document template by adding some text to the header and changing it to a Word docx file instead of a Word dotx file. I tested the document template by clicking the files tab in the ribbon and then clicking new
    document which opens the document template in Word and allows me to edit and save the document back to SharePoint. Then I created a SharePoint 2013 site workflow in SharePoint Designer that contains a single Create List Item action, and that action creates
    an item in the document library with the name field statically defined. I published the workflow and then manually start it on the site. The workflow completes successfully and when I navigate to the document library the document has been created by the workflow.
    When I click on the document to open it in the Word Web App it throws the error pictured below and if I open it in the Word client application it just opens a blank document and not the correct document template.
    I also tried using a SharePoint 2010 workflow with pretty much the same results. Opening the document in Word Web App gives the same error as above and opening the document in the Word client application gives the error pictured below.
    Come on Microsoft creating a Word Document in a SharePoint Document Library from a SharePoint Workflow should just work! Is this a bug or does anyone have any ideas on what is causing the this issue?

    I had the same problem with corrupted document - this worked for me:
    1. Create a 2010 Workflow which creates the list element in a document library
    (you may start this workflow from your 2013 workflow if applicable)
    2. In the Create New List Item properties - make sure to set ContentTypeId to your content type
    ("Id for indholdstype" is Danish for "Contenttype ID")
    3. Your Content Type template should be a ".docx" file - NOT a ".dotx" file...!
    (I have always created my templates for content types as .dotx files - seems Microsoft wants us to use ordinary .docx files as template files for content types)
    Hope this helps you!
