Invalid time buckets profile reference

Hi :
I am getting fololowing error while loading data in planning book : " Invalid time buckets profile reference", and unable to laod any data to planning book
I have already done consistency check , initailised version , checked time bucket profile , storage bucket profile , and those are fine .There are no time stream id defined either .

Hi Virendra,
Check whether your time bucket profile falls same under storage bucket profile. I mean, check your fiscal year variant in storage bucket profile as well as in Time bucket profile. becz you have assigned the storage bucket profile to planning Area, which having fiscal year variant & if you are using different fiscal year variant in Time bucket profile, this mentined error will appear.

Key figure display in planning book with respect to Time bucket profile

Hi,
I am loading a key figure to planning area from the info cube for the current month. When I review the key figure in planning book with monthly time bucket profile it shows 85 for the current month. In the same planning book with weekly bucket profile, it shows 55 from the current week and future weeks and the remaining 30 goes into the past weeks of the current month.
How to make the total quantity 85 to show in the current and future weeks only.
thanks and regards
Murugesan

Hi Murugesan,
Within the Planning Area, the data is stored at the lowest level granularity that you maintain in storage bucket profile. Then during display, system will decide what data to show depending on what kind of time bucket profile you use in the planning view, and the time based disaggregation that you maintain for Key Figure.
In this below case, what time characteristic do you have in cube? Is it date, week or month?
If it's date, check how much KF data is maintained on the dates which belong to week which has days both in this month/last month e.g. if I talk about Dec 2011, how much data is stored 1,2,3 & 4 th of Dec, 2011.
This data would appear in Dec in monthly view, but in week, it would appear in the week starting 28th November.
If data is maintained in cube in weeks, then you need to calculate how time based disaggregation would show it to you in months.
If it's months, then you would need to find out how much data would go to the days in the past week of the month.
The time based disaggregation may be causing you some issues, but in that case, I would not expect 30 out of 85 to go in the past week, unless you have data in cube in days.
Data shown in weekly view for week starting 28th Nov should ideally be a small proportion of 85, unless you are using a time stream/fiscal year variant, due to which most of December is in holidays. The only other exception I can think of is that you have data in teh days mentioned above.
It would be best to help the business understand this disaggregation logic, rather than thinking of manipulating the data to shift to a later week.
If this logic doesn't explain your situation, then please provide the date/week/month at which you have data in cube, and what quantity.
Thanks - Pawan

Unable to save Time Buckets Profile for SNI

I am getting this weird behavior with the Time Buckets Profile in SNI.
Whenever I Edit and Save the changes, the Time Bucket Profile reverts back to Years 0000, Months 0000, Weeks 0000 and so on.
I am using SCM 7.0 with the SP 06.
I have maintained the necessary Visibility Profiles for the relevant applications.
It was working until a couple of days and stopped from today. We recently added a custom view under SNI Details.
Any thoughts?

this is not a Time bucket profile but a storage bucket profile
you cannot create or maintain it... its standard SAP structure for storing data in technical buckets
the use of this bucket is in interactive planning book if you want to see how the data is stored(which you seem to have used). This is useful , say, in explaining how the weeks overlapping two months has got the quantity. Again this is a temporary setting and cannot be saved in the planning book
SCM5.0 makes this a bit accessible by giving this as an option in the drop down icon for "period settings"

Copy Key figure data between two planning area with different storage bucket profile

Hi,
I have a DP planning area ' PA1' with monthly storage bucket profile data view 'PA1M' ( monthly TBF) and I want to copy the data to another planning area 'PA2' whose storage bucket is weekly. This would need me to write a custom program which will split monthly to weekly and then populate 'PA2'.
However, In 'PA2', I created two data views 'PA2W' (with weekly time bucket profile) and 'PA2M' (with Monthly Time bucket profile). If I am able to copy the data from PA1 (PA1M) to PA2(PA2M), it will automatically splits monthly to weekly in PA2W.
So my question is if there exists a way I can copy key figure data from PA1M to PA2M? Any BAPI?

Hi Rakesh,
You can use COPY/Version Management Function to do this.
Path: Demand Planning > Environment >Copy/ Version Management
The system takes into account only those periodicities that are common to both planning areas.
For example, if the data is saved in months in the source planning area (PA1) but in months and weeks in the target planning area (PA2)
the system copies to months in the target planning area and then Disaggregates the data to the storage buckets in accordance with the Time-based Disaggregation.
hope this wil help to understand the basic concept.

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

Use of storage bucket profile in APO DP

I'm trying to clarify the sizing implications of using various buckets in the APO DP storage buckets profile.
Suppose I have a storage bucket profile 1 consisting of calendar weeks and days, and a profile 2 consisting of weeks only.
What will be the relative database/memory sizing resulting from these 2 profiles?
Thanks for any advice...

Hi,
As our other friends have mentioned here, just having a storage bucket profile doesnt consume memory, however let us assume you have generated time series objects based on these storage bucket profile, the following example will highlight the memory usage.
Horizon used -> 2 years.
No. of Weekly bucket --> 104 or 105
No. of daily bucket --> 365
Now if you generate Time Series out of your SBP which contains both daily and weekly, total memory occupied will be 365 +104 = 469 times your number of CVCs
If you generate time series out of your SBP which contains just weeks, total memory occupied will be 104 times your number of CVCs..
Hope this helps.
Thanks

"Invalid time", Code "24", Encore CS3

After rendering six motion thumbnails with video clips ranging in length from 1:28 minutes to 3:27 minutes, with menu duration set to 5 minutes before looping, the burn to BD stops with the following message:
Blu-ray Object: "Shop Menu", Error: "invalid time", Code: "24", Note: "start + duration exceeds clip duration" ("Shop Menu" is the name of the menu I am trying to burn)
I cannot find any reference to Code 24 either in the manual or the help. The durations of all of the clips are shorter than than the duration set in the menu, so I can make no sense out of this error message.
Can anyone explain what is going on?
Thanks.

I was finally able to complete my menu using an apparent workaround that I found.
I first looked at the original cryptic message, "start + duration exceeds clip duration," to try to imagine what some programmer was trying to describe. I have no idea what "start" is, but I assume it is associated with some interval of time which when added to "duration" cannot exceed "clip duration." "Duration," I believe, refers to a numeric field within the menu properties that sets the running time of the menu before it loops. "Clip duration," I guessed, referred to the running time of one of the clips that run within the thumbnail windows -- probably the longest-running one, as the message suggests that it must exceed the duration of the menu (the menu duration must not exceed the duration of the clip).
I noticed something else, too. When one links an audio asset to the menu (in properties), the program automatically adjusts menu duration to exactly match the duration of the audio track. For example, my audio asset (WAV file) runs 2:47:13. When I associated it with the audio link in properties, Encore automatically adjusted the menu duration to 2:47:13 to match the audio. The audio asset, therefore, controls menu "duration."
The duration of my longest-running clip is 3:28:13, which is 19 seconds longer than the audio track in the menu (and, therefore, the menu), so "duration" does not exceed "clip duration."
This is my best guess what is meant by the error message -- and it works.
In summary, I recommend to first set your audio track duration (length) before importing to the menu. Link that to the menu properties first, before adding clips, which will trigger an auto reset of the menu duration. Then just be sure you have at least one clip running in your thumbnails that exceeds the duration of the menu audio.
I now consider this issue resolved -- at least for me.

Time Buckets in DP

Dear All,
I have the following scenario in APO DP:
I have two plants: Plant A and Plant B.
For Plant A (Weekly off is wednesday):
So Weekly buckets for Oct 08 should look like this
W1 --> 2nd to 7th Oct
W2 --> 9th to 14th Oct
W3 --> 16th to 21st Oct
W4 --> 23rd to 29th OCt
And for Plant B (Weekly off is sunday)
So weekly buckets should look like this
W1 --> 1st to 4th Oct
W2 --> 6th to 11th oct...
continues like this..
How do i address this in ONE PLANNING AREA?
Orelse should i create two fiscal year variants and attach to TWO DIFFERENT planning area?

Hi.
If I understand your requirement correctly, you are going to need two storage bucket profiles. This being the case, you will need two planning areas.
Not only will you require two FYVs but also two Time streams to assign to the storage bucket profiles. In the timestreams you can define the order of your workdays in a week.
Hope this helps.

Error while updating a custom Windows Azure Diagnostics configuration xml from powershell. "Invalid update to extension reference for role"

I am attempting to upload a manually edited WADConfig xml to my VM. The WAD service is functioning correctly, I needed to add some custom WinEventLogs. The prescribed steps result in an error.
What am I overlooking?
I am following these instructions:
Step 5: Remotely install Diagnostics on your Azure Virtual Machine
azure.microsoft.com/en-in/documentation/articles/cloud-services-dotnet-diagnostics/#virtual-machine
$storage_name = "wadexamplevm"
$key = "<StorageAccountKey>"
$config_path="c:\users\<user>\documents\visual studio 2013\Projects\WadExampleVM\WadExampleVM\WadExample.xml"
$service_name="wadexamplevm"
$vm_name="WadExample"
$storageContext = New-AzureStorageContext
-StorageAccountName $storage_name -StorageAccountKey $key
$VM1 = Get-AzureVM
-ServiceName $service_name -Name $vm_name
$VM2 = Set-AzureVMDiagnosticsExtension
-DiagnosticsConfigurationPath $config_path
-Version "1.*"
-VM $VM1 -StorageContext $storageContext
$VM3 = Update-AzureVM
-ServiceName $service_name -Name $vm_name
-VM $VM2.VM
Unfortunately, I am receiving this error:
Update-AzureVM : BadRequest: Invalid update to extension reference for role: XXXXXX and reference: IaaSDiagnostics.
What's missing from the above script?

Hi,
Since Azure SDK 2.5 uses the extension model the diagnostics extension, the configuration and the connection string to the diagnostic storage are no longer part of the deployment package and cscfg. All the diagnostics configuration is contained within the
wadcfgx. The advantage with this approach is that diagnostics agent and settings are decoupled from the project and can be dynamically enabled and updated even after your application is deployed.
Due to this change some existing workflows need to be rethought – instead of configuring the diagnostics as part of the application that gets deployed to each environment you can first deploy the application to the environment and then apply the diagnostics
configuration for it. When you publish the application from Visual Studio this process is done automatically for you. However if you were deploying your application outside of VS using PowerShell then you have to install the extension separately through
PowerShell.
There PowerShell cmdlets for managing the diagnostics extensions on a Cloud Service are -
Set-AzureServiceDiagnosticsExtension
Get-AzureServiceDiagnosticsExtension
Remove-AzureServiceDiagnosticsExtension
You can use the Set-AzureServiceDiagnosticsExtension method to enable diagnostics extension on a cloud service. One of the parameters on this cmdlet is the XML configuration file. This file is slightly different from the diagnostics.wadcfgx file. You can
create this file from scratch by either following the article that you are referring to or you can modify the wadcfgx file and pass in the modified file as a parameter to the powershell cmdlet.
To modify the wadcfgx file –
Make a copy the .wadcfgx.
Remove the following elements from the Copy:
<DiagnosticsConfiguration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ServiceHosting/2010/10/DiagnosticsConfiguration">
<PrivateConfig xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ServiceHosting/2010/10/DiagnosticsConfiguration">
<StorageAccount name=" " endpoint="https://core.windows.net/" />
</PrivateConfig>
<IsEnabled>false</IsEnabled>
</DiagnosticsConfiguration>
Make sure the top of the file still has xml version and encoding –
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
Effectively you are stripping down the Wadcfgx to only contain the <PublicConfig> section and the <?xml> header. You can then call the PowerShell cmdlet along with the appropriate parameters for the staging slots and roles:
$storage_name = ‘
<storagename>’
$key= ‘<key>’
$service_name = '<servicename>'
$public_config = '<thepublicconfigfrom_diagnostics.wadcfgx>'
$storageContext = New-AzureStorageContext –StorageAccountName $storage_name –StorageAccountKey $key
Set-AzureServiceDiagnosticsExtension -StorageContext $storageContext -DiagnosticsConfigurationPath $public_config –ServiceName $service_name -Slot ‘Staging’ -Role ‘WebRole1’
Hope this helps !

How do i add more than one pdf at a time to profile manager books

How do I add more than one pdf at a time to profile manager books? When I browse to my pdf folder I can only select one pdf at a time. I have 500+ pdf files I need to add. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

no, there is no way to do that, sorry. you need to control-click on every email address one at a time and select "add to address book". if an email is in the address book already that option will not be there.

Data services with SQL Server 2008 and Invalid time format variable

Hi all
Recently we have switched from DI on SQL Server 2005, to DS(Date Services) on SQL Server 2008. However I have faced an odd error on the query that I was running successfully in DI.
I validate my query output using a validation object to fill either Target table (if it passes), or the Target_Fail table (if it fails). Before sending data to the Target_Fail table, I map the columns using a query to the Target_Fail table. As I have a column called 'ETL_Load_Date' in that table, which I should fill it with a global variable called 'Load_Date'. I have set this global variable in the script at the very first beginning of the job. It is a data variable type:
$Load_Date = to_char(sysdate(),'YYYY.MM.DD');
When I assign this global variable to a datetime data type cloumn in my table and run the job using Data Services, I get this error:
error message for operation <SQLExecute>: <[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid time format>.
However I didn't have this problem when I was running my job on the SQL Server 2005 using Data Integrator. The strange thing is that, when I debug this job, it runs completely successfully!!
Could you please help me to fix this problem?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Thanks for your reply.
The ETL_Date is a datetime column and the global variable is date data type. I have to use the to_char() function to be able to get just the date part of the current system datetime. Earlier I had tried date_part function but it returns int, which didn't work for me.
I found what the issue was. I don't know why there were some little squares next to the name of the global variable which I had mapped to the ETL_Date in the query object!!! The format and everything was OK, as I had the same mapping in other tables that had worked successfully.
When I deleted the column in the query object and added it again, my problem solved.

Invalid Time Interval error

Hi Friends,
I am loading HR data from Source. It loaded correctly without issues upto PSA and when i trigger the DTP from the PSA to the IO 0EMPLOYEE, I am getting the following error.
"0EMPLOYEE : Data record 25 ('00001028 ') : Invalid time interval '['20070731'/'20070527'] '[from/to]     RSDMD     189".
It shows about 7 entries in the error for employee 00001028.
When i check the data in PSA the from and to Values are correct.
Person           Start Date        End Date
1028              01.10.2002      26.05.2007
                      27.05.2007      31.07.2007
                      01.08.2007      31.01.2008
                      01.02.2008      29.02.2008
                      01.03.2008      27.09.2008
                      28.09.2002      31..12.2008
                      01.01.2009      31.12.9999
So, the from Data and to Date is correct yet I am getting the Invalid Time Interval error and my data load is failing.
It is happening for a all the records.
Can someone please tell me /suggets me how to resolve this issue?.
Yore help is appreciated.

A simple list with seven time buckets starting from the date report is run.

Hi All,
I am new to ABAP.Recently i have planned to write a progam which will help in planning the delivery of scheduled items.For a given sales Org. it will display all the undelivered,delivered items in a simple list and sort them with delivery dates.it will also provide a summary report at material group.For that i have used selection screen(LIKP-VKORG-Obligatory).when i enter VKORG Details i should get all the delivery docs for which delivery is not done or partially done.For this i have taken one more table LIPS
(LIPS-MATKL,LIPS-MATNR,LIPS-VBELN,LIPS-POSNR,LIPS-WERKS,LIPS-LFIMG,LIPS-MEINS) for tables LIKP and LIPS VBELN is the key field.when i enter VKORG Data in the selection screen ,how can i get the data from LIPS Table.Please explain?
Also report should be simple list with seven time buckets starting from the date when the report is run.The amount of quantity to be delivered should be displayed under appropriate bucket i.e within the bucket where its delivery date falls in.for ex:If the report is run on Tuesday 15th march 2010 then the start date 1 should be starting date of the week which is Monday 14th March.
The report will be summarized at Material Group and Material Number.
Appreciate your help

CS6 Timeline "Invalid Time" error

Win7 Home. All updates to CS6.
Have four timelines. No errors on Check Project. Build Blu-ray fails after sometime into the build. Get an "Adobe Encore Window" with: Blu-ray Object: "<Timeline> scrap best", Error: "Invalid Time", Code: "24", Note: "presentation composition times may not overlap". After clicking on "OK" get the "Build Program Failed" message. I can find nothing wrong with the timeline content. Any idea what this error means?

Stan,
Here are four "snips". All 4 utilize the same sequence of images (assets not slideshow). The mid row-left is the PPRO CS4 showing the chapter markers and each individual image. The top row is the resulting Encore CS4 timeline showing the individual images and chapter markers. No actual images show up since did not want to spend time locating the images. The mid row-right is the PPRO CS6 representtion of the same image sequence. Note that the "marker" window shows that encore chapter markers exist in same place as CS4. One thing different is the marker images are above the timeline ruler and seem to have in/out points. Not sure what this is for but they are chapter markers since can move forward/back using the previous/next chapter buttons. The bottom row is the resulting Encore CS6 presentation of the PPRO CS6 sequence. Note that it comes in as a "merged" video and there are no chapter markers.
The merged video I can live with for this project. Would save time; however, if the chapter markers were present. I could just manually reinsert them in Encore if necessary. By the way, I tried a different timeline story with it's "repaired" PPRO folders and it generated the folder just fine. Looks like the major problem is solved.
ABOVE = ENCORE CS4
ABOVE LEFT=PPRO CS4. RIGHT=PPRO CS6
ABOVE=ENCORE CS6

Time buckets edit/display mode
