Junk character '#' comes in Project description and WBS description...
Dear all,
When we transfer and release the project from C-projects module to PS,
then sometime, a junk character like "#" gets appended to the Project &
WBS description, when we retrive the Project in CJ20N. This junk
character creates a lot of problems in the reports, specially, when it
is exported to excel. due to this, all columns gets shifted in the
excel. After a lot of simulation, we found that if we unintentionally
give some spaces in the c-project description, then the junk character
gets appended to the PS description. What is the remedy ?? what should
be done to avoid this ???
Can any of you advise on this?
Thanks,
Kumar
Dear Kumar;
This was also happening to me while uploading Project and WBS from Excel file.
Remedy: for Description Column, copy and paste it on a sperate excel sheet, and apply Trim fromula to erase extra spaces in the begining and end of field.
Now save that 2nd sheet with only description column as text TAB format from excel. and close the file.
Now open that text tab file in excel and copy and p[aste this description column to original Upload file.
This will resolve your issue.

Grey field for project definition and WBS element
Dear all,
I have created a project and WBS element in CJ01. Now I go via CJ02 to the change mode and the project ID and WBS element ID is not greyed out. But I would like that the system shows these key fields as not changeable anymore, only fields like description should be changable. Can you please tell me, which customizing step I missed to get the grey field for project ID/WBS element ID?
FYI I do not use a project mask to create the project.
Thanks for your answer.
HeidiHi Heidi ,
I don't think you can grey out the Project Definition and the WBS Element fields after the creation .
If you want to restrict the users to change the Proj definition and WBS , a better way is through
Authorization objects and restricting only specified users to change the WBS

How to block reusage of archived Project definition and WBS element numbers
Dear All,
We have archived our projects using the TC SARA and the Project definition and WBS elements numbers no more exist in tables PROJ and PRPS etc.. When I now try to create a new project, the system proposes the next open number or allows to enter a number which is the same as one of the archived projects. But in our organization we cannot reuse the Project definition and WBS element numbers (even if it is archived) as a rule.
Can anybody guide me what are the possibilities to block or avoid the reusage of the numbers of archived project definition and WBS elements in a fool-proof way?
Thanks and regardsOne Workaround:
Use T code OPSJ and lock the project coding mask. Doing this you can not use this mask any more.
But you want to continue using the mask but with different numbers. Not sure how this can be acheived. lets wait for others view

Creation of project definition and wbs element
I want creation of project definition and wbs element upto 4 level using bapis.
i am using transaction cj27,cj01,cj02
which function module to use for this??Hi,
to create project definition with customer fields the BAPI you should use is : BAPI_BUS2001_CREATE
to create WBS elements with different levels and specific fields the BAPI you should use is BAPI_BUS2054_CREATE_MULTI
these bapi must be used in the sequence of call :
BAPI_PS_INITIALIZATION
BAPI_BUS2001_CREATE / BAPI_BUS2054_CREATE_MULTI
BAPI_PS_PRECOMMIT
BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
before using the bapi, you must apply OSS note :
637345 - Syntax error with enhanced PS tables
i sent you the oss note to your mail

Long Description and Short Description
Dear All,
I have a dimension with three levels.
1. District (district_id, district_name)
2. Council(Council_id, council_name)
3. Address(person_id, address, postcode, phone....)
I have set the district_id, council_id and person_id as SHORT DESCRIPTION and the district_name, council_name, and address as LONG DESCRIPTION.
BUT when I view the data (right click dimension -> Data) It shows me the surrogate id (which are negative ids) instead of the Textual fields i.e. district_name, council_name and Address.
Please, tell me how can I see all the textual fields instead of seeing the surrogate keys?
regards
P.S. I am using OWB 11g on SUSEHi
OWB provides the mechanics to extract from a bunch of resources, design schemas and models as well as load into them but it is not a reporting tool. The metadata that is used by the OWB data viewer is also used by this excel component and it works right off the database (as far as I remember). This will let you build cool reports right off the bat from the models built and loaded by OWB.

CADO Report - Missing Project Definition and WBS elements
While running CADO (time sheet data) report for employee, data is not being pulled up for the WBS Element and Project Definition. What could be the reason? Here time is entered against a network activity but for some entries WBS element and project definition is dispalyed and for remaining it is not.
Yes....these activities are assigned to the WBS element in the project. As I mentioned earlier for the same activity in some cases WBS element is populated.

Project def. description & WBS description in multiple language
Hi Guru's,
In my current project client want to maintain Project def. description & WBS description in English and Arabic simultaneously( but not as long text).
Is it possible to maintain two description together( 1st in English and other 2nd in Arabic) for a Project def. and WBS Element at the time of creating project hierarchical structure in CJ20N.
So when the client will login to SAP as Language English/Arabic they can view the description as per the login language selected.
I am looking forward for your reply.
Regards,
Amlan NeogiHi Amlan
you need to activate OPS_PS_CL_1
Multi language support has to be activated for object ML(IMG-->project systems-->Activate Multi language support)
When you create a new PS object a new tab Short text appears in which you can maintain the language and the description.
so when ever the user logs on with the language then the description o the object in that language will be displayed
regards

Locking of the Project and WBS Elements at a single step.
Hi Experts,
My client requirement is to lock the complete project and wbs elements so as not to allow any further postings to the project, I knew that we can lock the project or WBS individually by setting the lock status, but i want to lock the complete project at one step, Is there any possible standard setting to sort out my Issue if not give me the solution.
Thanks & Regards,

may be the below explanation will be helpful.
You can open the project in CJ20N for example and can set the lock for project definition and also you can set the lock for WBS element without saving and exiting from CJ20N, after setting the lock for both project definition and WBS Element you can save and exit.
It is not possible to select more than one object and set lock with one click. -
