Master/Transaction data from ECC to APO-BW

Hi All,
Normally we come across scenarios where Master/Transaction data is pulled from ECC to BW and then pulled into APO-BW. What are the pros and cons of CIF (direct connection between ECC and APo-BW) rather than pulling data from ECC to stand-alone BW and then into APO-BW?
Regards,
Joy

Hi Santhana,
If you want to add data of ECC to APO BW & Then in to DP, then follow the following Steps.
1. Create Generic Data Source in ECC for thet Sales Order table.
2. Replicate that data Source in to APO BW with Source System.
3. Create whole data flow process by using created Data Source.
    Data Flow Process: 1. Info Package
                                  2. Info Source
                                  3. Info Cube
                                  4. Transformation between DS & IS, Then IS & IC
                                  5. Data Transfer Process.
4. Load data from ECC to APO BW
5. Use transaction /n/sapapo/tscube, for copy Info Cube data to Planning Area.
Hope this will help you.

CIF - Master/Transactional Data From ECC to APO

Working on CIF Data From ECC6.0 to APO(SCM 5.0)..
If i choose MRP type XO in ECC - Master Data & Transactional Data is moving properly to APO.
As we are using MRP in ECC6.0..and the MRP Type is PD...
I want to CIF the Master Data & Transactional Data using MRP Type PD? is it possible?How?
Regards,
Rajesh Patil

Hi Rajesh,
As visu rightly indicated, it is always safer to use XO while planning in APO. Still, if the business requirement compels to use PD, you can cif with PD, then copy the data from active to an inactive version and then carry out the simulation planning. Once results are copied, you can change the mrp type to xo in R/3 and re-cif it. Then you can compare the result in APO between active and inactive versions.

Transaction data from ECC to APO DP

Dear All,
Can you tell me if i can directly load transaction data directly from ECC to APO BW Infocube.
For example i want to load say sales orders from ECC.
Can i directly load from ECC --> APO BW Infocube --> DP Keyfigures.
Or any staging is required inbetween ECC and APO BW
Thanks

CIF of transaction data from ECC to APO

Hi,
I wanted to know where we maintain the configuration for real time transfer of transaction from ECC to APO.
I know for master data we have an option in CFC9 for real time/periodic transfer. Is there any similar config for transaction data too like sales orders etc.

Hi Alok,
To allow online transfer of changes to transaction data from SAP R/3 to SAP APO, you have to activate generally the BTEs in SAP R/3.
This is done in R/3. This is the path:
SPRO --> Integration with Other SAP Components --> Basic Settings for the Data Transfer --> Change Transfer --> Change Transfer for Transaction Data --> Activate Online Transfer Using BTE
You can read about it here:
Change Transfer for Transaction Data - Integration via APO Core Interface (CIF) - SAP Library
Then of course you will need to generate and actiave your IModels.
Kind Regards,
Mariano

Issue in transfer of data from ECC to APO

Hi All,
I have a requirement of transferring data from ECC to APO. I am using EXIT_SAPLCMAT_001 fro this purpose. The problem is, I need to transfer the data of a field that is not present in cif_matloc but present in /sapapo/matloc.
How should I proceed...Please help....this is an urgent requirement
Thanks & Regards,
SriLalitha

Hi,
you may want to go to the transaction /SAPAPO/SNP_SFT_PROF
Determine Forecast of Replenishment Lead Time
Use
In this field, you specify how the extended safety stock planning determines
the forecast of the replenishment
lead time (RLT). The following values are available:
Supply Chain
The system determines the RLT forecast using the supply chain structure by
adding the corresponding production, transportation, goods receipt, and goods
issue times. If there are alternative procurement options, the system always
takes the
longest
option into account.
Master Data
The system determines the RLT forecast from the location product master
data.
Master Data/ Supply Chain
First, the system determines the RLT forecast from the location product
master data. If no RLT forecast can be determined, the system determines the
forecast using the supply chain structure (as described under
Supply
Chain
Dependencies
You can retrieve the replenishment lead time forecast yourself by using the
GET_LEADTIME
method of the Business Add-In (BAdI) /SAPAPO/SNP_ADV_SFT.
Replenishment Lead Time in Calendar Days
Number of calendar days needed to obtain the product, including its
components, through in-house
production or external
procurement.
Use
The replenishment lead time (RLT) is used in the enhanced methods of safety
stock planning in Supply Network Planning (SNP). The goal of safety
stock planning is to comply with the specified service level, in order
to be prepared for unforeseen demand that may arise during the replenishment
lead time. The longer the RLT, the higher the planned safety stock level.
Dependencies
The field is taken into account by the system only if you have specified
master data or master data/supply chain in the RLT: Determine
Forecast field of the safety stock planning profile used.
Hope this helps.
The RLT from ECC is in MARC-WZEIT which is transferred to APO in structure /SAPAPO/MATIO field CHKHOR.
May be if you maintain the setting in the profile, you may get the value in RELDT.
Thanks.

Loading master/transaction data from BI to NW BPC

hi
what is best way of loading master & transaction data from BI to BPC?
I know around 6 options for loading master data and 5 options for loading transactional data from BI to BPC .
What is easiest and recommended method? what is typical method followed in your NW bpc projects?
thanks,.

Hi Raju,
There is a white paper on Loading master data. I've used it previously and both options work quite well. You can use either of them depending on what you are comfortable with. Its available on the HOW To white papers.

BPC:NW - Best practices to load Transaction data from ECC to BW

I have a very basic question for loading GL transaction data into BPC for variety of purposes, would be great if you can point me towards best practices/standard ways of making such interfaces.
1. For Planning
When we are doing the planning for cost center expenses and need to make variance reports against the budgets, what would be the source Infocube/DSO for loading the data from ECC via BW, if the application is -
YTD entry mode:
Periodic entry mode:
What difference it makes to use 0FI_GL_12 data source or using 0FIGL_C10 cube or 0FLGL_O14 or 0FIGL_D40 DSOs.
Based on the data entry mode of planning application, what is the best way to make use of 0balance or debit_credit key figures on the BI side.
2. For consolidation:
Since we need to have trading partner, what are the best practices for loading the actual data from ECC.
What are the typical mappings to be maintained for movement type with flow dimensions.
I have seen multiple threads with different responses but I am looking for the best practices and what scenarios you are using to load such transactions from OLTP system. I will really appreciate if you can provide some functional insight in such scenarios.
Thanks in advance.

Load transaction data from ECC to BPC 10.1 using US GAAP starter kit SP3

I need to understand a bit more the process to load transactional data into BPC 10.1. We have US GAAP Starter Kit SP 3. Below is an screenshot from the config guide:
It explains how transactional data can be extracted from ECC system to the SAP Netweaver BW data source 0FI_GL_10 and then transform it
to get it loaded into BPC. The Objects /PKG/FC_C01 and PKG/FC_DS01 are just mentioned here as reference because they come in the RDS for Financial Close and Disclosure Management, which not all companies have.
I believe the upwards data flow should be from Data Source 0FI_GL_10 to Data Store Object 0FIGL_O10 and then to InfoCube 0FIGL_R10. There is also a data flow that goes from 0FI_FL_10 to InfoCube 0FIGL_R10. Can anyone with experience with US GAAP starter kit answer this?
Thank you.

Hello, we were able to load actuals to our environment with the US GAAP Starter Kit, SP03. I followed the Operating Guide document up to section 5.2 and ran the Consolidation Data Manager Package with no issue. We are using the A20 Input and A20 Consolidation process flows based on flows F00, F10, F20, F30, F99, etc... According to the documentation, the Statemnet of Cash Flow and Changes in Equity should be automatically calculated and available from the changes
in Balance Sheet accounts once Consolidation is completed . However, when I ran the corresponding reports, they bring no data.
We loaded actual data for the whole 2013 and Jan 2014. Our intention is
to run the first consolidation for Jan 2014. The closing balance for period 12.2013 in flow 99 was copied to flow 00 2014 (opening balance). Flows 20 and 30 were updated with the corresponding balance sheet movements (increase/decrease), according to the delivered controls in the starter kit. However, cash flow is still showing no results.
I found the following text in the operating guide, but I am not clear if I am missing a step. Can you please clarify? This is telling me that I need to copy my 01.2014 opening balance (F00) to 12.2013 closing balance (F99, which is done by the copy opening data manager package, but in the opposite direction, from Y-1 F00 to Y F99) and in addition to also copy that balance to 12.2013 F00 (previous year opening balance)??
"5.2.2 First Consolidation
When operating the consolidation for a given Scope for the first time in the application, it is necessary to populate and process the prior year-end time period for this Scope, in addition to the first required consolidation period. This is because the flows dedicated to the scope change analysis are properly populated by the consolidation engine provided that at least one automatic journal entry has been detected in the consolidation used as opening consolidation, which by default is the prior year end (December, Y-1). To accomplish this, it is recommended that you copy all input-level opening data of the first required consolidation (flow “F00”) into the closing data (“F99”) and opening data (“F00”) of the prior year-end time period, including intercompany breakdowns.
This breakdown by intercompany in the balance sheet triggers automatic eliminations, which are carried over to the closing position. After the consolidation process, the closing data of the prior year
end time period will contain the appropriate source data for the opening data of the following consolidation, notably the opening automatic journal entries.

CIF STEPS to load data from ECC to APO from Process chain

Hi,
i try to create on ECC system a process chain in order to execute the CIF program for updating APO Material/Plant Master data on DELTA mode .
I am not sure that the procedure is correct, at the moment i put on a chain:
- Step 1 Program RIMODGEN with a specific variant
-Step 2 Program RIMODACT2 with a specific variant.
Is necessary a third step with RIMODACT2 in order to deactivate the integration model?
On APO we have to insert other standard step in order to complete the delta update?
Any experience on similar situation?
Thanks,
Veronica

Veronica
You do not need a third step. You do not need to deactivate the model. In fact, it is not recommended to do so. You do not need any step in APO.
If your CIF setup is correct, the first two steps should be enough.
If by 'Delta', you mean field value changes to material/ plants in an existing integration model, you dont even need to do CFM1/ CFM2 if you have setup transaction CFC9 for BTE (online transfer).

Error in Data transfer ECC to APO

Hello Guys,
I'm getting an error in my system when I try to transfer data from ECC to APO system. When I CIF (after generating IM, when I activate it) older data (master data created previously in system), I'm getting a short dump with mesage class 'XC', It says :

But when I create a new data and try to transfer it, it smoothly transfers into APO without any dump or error.
Similarly, when I pull the data in APO with CCR, I get short dump while iterating data:

The current ABAP program "/SAPAPO/SAPLDM_LC_SQL" had to be terminated because
it has
come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
A table is referred to in an SAP Open SQL statement that either does not
exist or is unknown to the ABAP Data Dictionary.
The table involved is "/SAPAPO/ORDMAP" or another table accessed in the
statement.
I'm not much aware on LC technology, I have deactivated & activate LC once in LCA10. Also, checked consitency in OM17, it shown no inconsistency. Plus, when checked in OM13, all checks are showing green.
Can you please suggest what needs to be done?
Thanks,

Load transaction data from R3 (FI, CO, HR, MM...) to BPC 10 directly

Hi everyone,
Anyone know if is it possible to load transaction data from ECC (FI, CO, HR, MM...) to BPC 10 directly? There is a documment titled "How to Implement Delta Loading of Transaction Data from ECC and BW 7.3 into BPC using Delta Initialization in BPC 10NW" but only refers to load data from BW.
Thanks&Regards,
Fernando.

Hi Fernando,
BPC NW 10.0 has DM packages that allow load of Master and Transaction data directly from ECC system, but it's very limited. I.e. just a couple extractors are supported right now.

How to delete Master Data transferred from ECC to APO via CIF

Hi, all
I'm connecting SCM 5.1 with ECC 6.0 via CIF.
When activating Integration Model in ECC, the following error occurred;
"Location 0001 of type 1001 (BSG 592BUSGP) already exists in APO"
This is because Location 0001 was already transferred from different ECC client via CIF, and not cleared.
I'm now trying to initialise master data transferred from ECC to APO via CIF, but in vain.
I suppose I have to first delete all master data CIFed from ECC in APO, or have to execute initialisation of APO master data with ECC data in ECC.
Please tell me how to do this.
For details, please read the followings;
I connected APO client with ECC client 590.
I transferred Plant and Material Master from ECC to APO via CIF.
After that, I wanted to change ECC client from 590 to the other.
I created the other client (592) by client-copying from 590 with SAP_ALL copy profile.
I deactivated Integration Model in ECC 590, and activated the same in ECC 592.
Here, I faced the problem.
The initial data transfer failed due to the duplicate of data.
Now I'm wondering how I can initialise master data in APO and transfer initial data from ECC.
Due to testing purposes, I have to change ECC clients from one to the other this time, but I cannot initialise master data in APO and cannot tansfer initial data from different ECC client.
thanks in advance,
Hozy

Hi all,
Thank you very much indeed for lots of your replies.
Thanks to all of your advices, I'm getting to understand what to do.
Well, I'll say I have to create one more client for testing with other ECC clients or I have to rebuild the client by client-copying from 001 and implementing all transportation requests, for marking del flags to each master data and running del programme sound like tough work, and sound like odd ..
Then, I've got next issue here.
In SCM-APO, I use BI objects, and , if I have to create several clients for testing, I have to set up clients where you can use both BI objects and CIFed master data.
I suppose I have to change 'BWMANDT' in RSADMINA and make RSA1 accessable in other SCM clients and implement tests.
Also, I have to register BI System for newly created SCM clients in RSA1-SourceSystem.
Well, if you have any experiences on this kind of use, and if you have any advice on it, please give me any tips.
Particulary, I'd appreciate very much if you give me advice on which way you have chosen; creating several clients or rebuilding the one client in SCM-APO when you use both BI objects, CIFed master data and Demand Planning.
Thanks in advance.

Need to Populate Material Type from ECC to APO Product Master

Hi All,
I need to update the material type field from ECC to APO.
I am using the userexit CIFMAT01 and component EXIT_SAPLCMAT_001.
I need to extract field MTART from MARA table and need to Populate it in APO Product master.
In APO i am using the ATT01 field of table /SAPAPO/MATKEY.
But this does not work the data of material type is not getting populated in APO.
We have tried to use a break point in the user exit and while executing the transaction CFM2 it does not stop at the break point.
Can anyonwe guide me as to how to go about in implemeting this user exit.
Regards
Nitin

Hi Nitin,
Make sure that u r pass the material type as a below :
CT_CIF_MATKEY-ATT01 = Pass the Material Type.
CIF_MATKYX -ATT01 = 'X'.
