Junk Character like "#" comes in the Project & WBS desc.....

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

Can you let us know exactly what is stored in the database?
What is the data type? Will you be able to paste the content of the cell that you are referring to?
What front end you are using?

  • Junk characters like" � � "displayed in the jsp page please help.

    Hi,
    I am getting junk characters like � � displayed in the jsp page.
    In the JSP page i used javascript "& nbsp" for appending spaces to a string "CCR" to get "CCR " .
    Now the Resultant string "CCR " has three spaces appended to its right.
    This String is set in session in that JSP page.
    In the next JSP page i am getting that string from session.
    After getting the string the "substring" function is performed to get only the first 5 charcters of the string. Now the result is displayed as " CCR� � " with has last 2 characters as junk values � � insteed of displaying as "CCR ". Please help me in solving this issue.
    Please note that initially the sting "CCR" is got from the Oracle database in Solaris Machine.
    Regards,
    Vijay

    have you tried:
    strenuously inspecting the string that is coming from the db? do an actual loop over the string, character by character, dumping to System.out to make sure the characters are EXACT coming out of the db.
    note you have to append " " not just "& nbsp"
    post the code that is doing the output. the relevant bean code, the jsp, everything relevant - WITH COMMENTS discussing where things are happening.
    Also, is it "weird characters" in the browser only? have you done a view source on the actual html source that the browser is rendering (right click in IE and click view source). browsers can act odd if you don't feed then exactly what they want, and it looks like you're feeding it escaped characters that it is rendering as something else.

    1 new update have been added to the project would you like to close the project and apply these updates message  in project 2010.
    One of the PM is getting above message and not any recent changes happened?

    Hi,
    This message appears when an update has been sent for his approval and is pending. It could happen while opening the project plan, or when clicking on something like "retreive tasks updates" from the backstage menu of MS Project Pro.
    The PM should go to his approval center and check for any approval pending.
    Hope this helps,

  • I would like to change the project page layouts, but setup option in Project Superuser are not available. How can I change the selected page layouts?

    Hi
    I updated the page layouts for a project in Project Management. Now I woujld like to change those chosen page layouts, but the setup options for the project are no longer available for me to change. How can I update the original chosen page layouts (for performance management) to different layouts or change the chosen layouts to the default (blank) layouts?
    Thanks

    AppleMan,
    It all began inside the settings of my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A when somehow the selection got switched from 1280 x 720 to that other setting with so-called 25fps. Also, I don't know whether the mishap occurred before or after I took my new footage.
    I edited the clips last night and now they are on my blog and channel and they seem ok but slightly fuzzy.
    I used a Sanyo VPC-HD2000A .7x wide angle lens with macro and I notice that when I zoomed in to the little sun conure, the picture blurred. I think that might be something that happens when one zooms the focus.
    Also, I was born and raised to a teenager in Hawaii, but now Southern California has me in its grip.

    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.

  • SAP PS Mdifying the Project definition.

    Hi,
    We have created a project but would like to modify the project definition. Could any one provide detailed procedure on how to modify the project definition.
    Regards,
    Syam.

    Further to my response in thread
    Changing project definition assignment number
    I tried to simulate the effect of changed WBS number on FI postings and reports. Carried out below steps:
    1. Created a WBS A
    2. Posted an FI documet onto this WBS A. Document posted was 100
    3. Changed the WBS number from A to B
    4. Displayed the FI document 100, the WBS element now appears as B (instead of A which was referred during posting)
    5. Executed a report for WBS B, journal values are visible.
    We are changing the external number alone and this doesn't effect the internal number generated by the system.
    Let's see others view on this.

  • How to download and upload long text for project, WBS , Network,

    Hi all,
    I have two isssues.
    1) I am extracting Projects, WBS , Network , Network activity and network activity element from a SAP 4.7 system using bapi's
    BAPI_PROJECTDEF_GETDETAIL
    BAPI_PROJECT_GETINFO
    BAPI_NETWORK_GETINFO
    BAPI_BUS2054_GETDATA
    I am able to get all the details except long text. I want to know how do i extract the long text other than getting it manually by using select_text and Read_text Function module, is there any bapi to achieve this.
    The reason why i am not using Function modules Read_text and Write_text is, object name( TDNAME ) value stored in STXH table for project, wbs and network are the project, wbs and network itself so i dont have any issues with this but the TDname value for activity and activity element are completely different ( Routing number and counter is stored respectively ) which i am not getting as the part of the bapi(BAPI_NETWORK_GETINFO) output.
    2)  I have to upload the extracted Project and it sub object data to ECC 6.0 system , i am able to achieve this by using BAPI's BAPI_PROJECTDET_CREATE, BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN and BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN. I am not able to load the longtext for the same, is there any way to load the long text .
    All help will be greatly appreciated and rewarded.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Rajanidhi Rajasekeran.

    I don't think there is any BAPI to do it.
    We are doing it by read_text & edit_text . required fields for text name can be fetched by following select
      if not e_activity[] is initial.
        select aaufnr aaufpl baplzl bobjnr b~vornr
          into corresponding fields of table t_longtext
          from afko
            as a
        left join afvc
            as b
            on aaufpl = baufpl
           for all entries in  e_activity
           where a~aufnr = e_activity-network
           and a~aufnr is not null.
      endif.
          txtname = wa_longtext-objnr.
          replace c_nv in txtname with sy-mandt.

  • Problem opening Project/WBS Elements in CJ03

    Hi Experts,
    I have created an interface which posts PROJECT01 Idocs into SAP 6.0. Idocs are posted successfully and I can see Projects/WBS elements in tables PROJ and PRPS.
    However, when I try to open a project/wbs through transaction CJ03, it throws short dump mentioning memory overflow. I checked by debugging CJ03 and found that the code is going into infinite loop.
    Could anyone help me understand why this kind of problem is coming? What is the reason the code is going into infinite loop? If the project/wbs structure is not getting created properly, how can I check that?
    Thanks in advance.
    Netrey

    The issue is resolved. The structure coming throug Idoc itself was incorrect.

  • Posting expense amounts to cost center versus Project (WBS)

    Hi,
    I am an ABAPer. I have a basic FI doubt. We are using Project system in our company. Now for expenses, the employee enters the data in third party systems. Th third party systems then provide us with the data file which will be posted in SAP.
    The business says that if a given expense by an employee, has Project status released, then the amount for that expense should be posted to cost center otherwise the amount for that expense should be posted to the project(WBS).
    Now what does business people mean by posting expense amount to cost center or posting expense amount to Project (WBS). Where in FI can I see the option of posting amount to cost center versus posting amount to project ? Is there any transaction we can do that ?
    Regards,
    Rajesh.

    Dear Rajesh,
    If there is a corresponding wage type for expenses, you would assign GL Accounts to the corresponding symbolic accounts of HR Payroll. You would run the payroll.
    Which means that wage types are assigned to symbolic accounts and symbolic accounts point to GL Accounts.
    In HR, expenses are dealt mainly in Travel Management for travel expenses etc.
    in SAP Easy Access Menu, Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Travel Management -> Travel Expenses
    F-41 and F-43 are one and same except the fact the F-41 has defaulted with document type KG (Vendor credit memo) and F-43 with KR (Vendor Invoice) which you can change. You should use Document Type KR for Vendor Invoices.
    The payments will be released once you run payment program to run due A/P open items.
    Regards,
    Naveen.

    In which transaction I can check these changes apart from u201CCN60u201D, and please explain step by step what all the customizing setting are required to check these changes.
    In Projects is it possible to check the way we are checking the changes in PO and Sales Orders.

    Nitin Patoliya,
    Thanks for the inputs, I have tried as you suggested there it is showing system status Created and released, but Iu2019m not getting the information as I required. Here exactly what Iu2019m looking is If I have done any changes in the Project, Eg: after saving the Project if I have changed the Business area, profit center u2026.etc, I need the information when I have changed this data and at what level (WBS, Network or Activity).

  • Changing the version of the project

    Dear All,
    I would like to change the project version from 2 to 1. Can you please help in providing the steps? I've searched the forums regarding the solution but i did not get it.
    Regards,Sudha.I

    Hi,
    I am assuming you are talking about the "Project Version" concept and looking to view details in individual versions. If yes; you can see the same in CN41 report where in you canpull up project versions from "Evaluation" menu option.

  • Project/WBS Created date with Time

    Hi,
    How to see the  Project/WBS Created date *with Time* in PS?
    Regards
    Sankar

    Sankar,
    In CJ20N you will not find the creation time as this info is not stored in PRPS.
    As a workarround, you can consider checking JCDS. In this table status change documents are stored. The date and time when each status was set and removed is stored.
    Just check the date/time when status I0001 Created was set for your WBS element.
    Please bear in mind that JCDS will only have entries if status change docs are active for your structures. You can activate the creation in OPSA (project profile)
    Hope this helps
    Regards
