Metric DIF in SAP F&R

Metric DIF : We need to check how this metric DIFs manage the number of locations supplied by a DC. It seems there is a DIF that considers if any variation in the number of stores supplied by a DC when calculating the forecast.
Can anyone please help me to understand how Metric DIF is working in SAP F&R. I have created metric DIF and assigned for two stores s1 AND s2 ( DC as supplier for the stores). But when did the forecast it did not consider the Metric DIF.
Can anyone has any document or process flow for this please share with me. My mail id is [email protected]

Hi Arun,
Did you check this link: Number of Supplied Sites as DIF Occurrences - SAP F&amp;R Integration - SAP Library ? The case you are describing would require the activities in the SAP ECC Retail system to be done, which then results in metric DIF being generated via interface in F&R. No nee to maintain metric DIF manually in F&R.
The metric DIF in general has a value at a moment in time. This value can change over time. The effect of a value change is then input into F&R forecast.

Metric inconsistency

Here's what my metric log shows:
03/19 11:00:34 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/7
Sessions: 2904 Total Memory=1299840 Free=1130967
Yes the Windows Task manager shows that the instance taking

If we do the math, the instance should only be using 168873.
Why different numbers? What am I missing?

BPC limitations Dimensions/Performance

What is the limitation on the number of dimensions BPC (Outlooksoft) can have? And how is the performance affected with more or less dimensions being used on BPC Excel. Is there and performance measure in place?
Thanks

For SAP BPC 5.1, SAP recommends max of 20 dimensions per application. I had an application which had 15 dimensions and one of the biggest templates (excel) had 5 dimensions in row expansion and 1 dimension (time) in column expansion. The template had close to 1000 rows of data and it used to take close to 6 minutes to open. This has been my worst experience.
I am not sure if there is a performance metrics published by SAP but you might find something in their implementation guides.
Thanks,
Ameya Kulkarni

i. The list of the modules that are being managed by SAP Solution Manager(s)
ii. The performance metrics of those modules/components at the high level
iii. The information about Early Watch Alerts (or situations to watch for)
2)
Is there a full SNMP interface for getting the above information from SAP Solution Manager?
3)
Is that understanding that SAP has SNMP support for forwarding alerts to a 3rd party system, correct?
4)
Does SAP has both free and licensed? If yes then what are the advantages of licensed over the open/free version?

thanks

Hello, collegues.
Thanks for attantion, I have solved this problem.
Especially I thank Amit Kumar Pandey (http://forums.sdn.sap.com/profile.jspa?userID=3801262) - He has told the problem solution and SaraGil - For active participation.
Solution - it is important to name "Object Type ID" - "IPO" for initiative and "RIH" for item. My error was in that that - I had named "Object Type ID" - "0001" for item.

Can they be generated metric from SAP BI in BOBJ XI 3.1 Dashbord Builder?
If it is like that, since I generate the filter of dates for the indicator?

Hi,
to my knowledge you can not use an OLAP universe to generate a metric. you can use the OLAP universes for specific gauges like a speedometer.
does that help ?

SAP F&R - Creating More Than One Ignore DIF

Hello there,
We're running F&R 5.1, we have one internal Ignore DIF in the system and we want to create another external Ignore DIF. But when we try to create the second Ignore DIF, the system error message shows:
"There must be only one DIF type of I"
There's no way to skip this message, so isn't it possible to create more than one Ignore DIF?
Thanks,
Yang

Hello Yang,
the system allows you to generate internal DIF occurences of DIF type Ignore from both internal and external system.
Please consider that the Internal No. and External No. only refers to the way how to define the DIF occurrence ID. Internally means the system is creating it automatically. External means a user has to type it in.
See also the customizing point about Number Ranges For DIF Occurrences (tcode /FRE/DIFNR).
Kind regards, Rainer

Metric: SAP Host Agent Availability doubt

Hello folks!
I have a problem in technical monitoring from Solution Manager, and i would be happy, if someone could help me with this.
1 - SAP Solution Manager is trying to ping a IP that doesnt exists
2 - In the screenshot, the line is: "Ping to listener: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port not successful".
Let's call the host of my managed object as "$HOST_NAME", and the IP as "$HOST_IP".
1 - The IP of $HOST_NAME is one, and the IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx that SolMan is trying to ping, is another, the ip doesnt even exists, because i can't reach him from anywhere. Is it not wrong? I think the "Listener" should be the $HOST_IP, not another...
2 - The correction for this problem, would be the adjustment of the "Listener" to the $HOST_IP? How could i do this?
Thanks already

Hi,
Host agent runs on physical machine.
Can you goto agent admin and find host name and IP from there.

Questions on SAP Strategy Management

Dear Experts,
I am very new to SAP Strategy Management (SSM). I already tried to find some information about it in the web, but unfortunately most documents only provide high level information (mostly marketing slides). Therefore I would be grateful if you could answer the following questions:
1. SSM provides charts for data visualization. Is there an overview of supported chart types? Is there a source which gives further information about chart customization?
2. SSM provides a collaboration functionality that enables user to add comments. Can comments only be maintained on query level, or also by navigation state (e.g. comment is only shown, when navigating to Calendar Year 2006 and Company Code 4711)?
3. Is it possible to print comments / export comments combined with charts / reports to PDF
4. Can users upload documents (e.g. MS Word docs)?
5. A new version was just released which is supposed to have a better integration with SAP BI. What are the improvements in terms of integration? How can SAP BI data be accessed?
6. What are the current system requirements for SSM?
7. Where can a documentation on SSM be found (I could unfortunately only find an installation guide on service.sap.com)?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Marco

Marco,
Here is some information about SAP Strategy Management:
1. SSM provides charts for data visualization. Is there an overview of supported chart types? Is there a source which gives further information about chart customization?
Strategy Management provides out-of-the-box packaged reporting templates: Benchmarking, Trending, Percent Contributions within subtotals, Exceptions, Rankings, Ad-Hoc reporting of multiple dimensions & metrics.
With Strategy Management, you can also provide links to reports or charts in other applications for further drill-down or exploration.
2. SSM provides a collaboration functionality that enables user to add comments. Can comments only be maintained on query level, or also by navigation state (e.g. comment is only shown, when navigating to Calendar Year 2006 and Company Code 4711)?
Comments are added by users to specific areas and can be defined as to which user groups have access or visibility to these comments. These comments are directly associated with a specific area (i.e. objective, KPI, initiative, etc.) with a tagging icon to show individual users if there are new, unread, comments since their last access to system.
Comments are added at the user interface level and would be stored in either the MaxDB or SQL database, depending on how the implementation was configured.
3. Is it possible to print comments / export comments combined with charts / reports to PDF
Strategy Management has an Operational Review function that allows users to capture screenshots, annotate them and publish as a pdf report.
4. Can users upload documents (e.g. MS Word docs)?
Throughout Strategy Management is the ability to provide links to other reports, internal or external documentation, as well as other applications. Best practices would have an associated link to documents.
5. A new version was just released which is supposed to have a better integration with SAP BI. What are the improvements in terms of integration? How can SAP BI data be accessed?
The improvements are an administrator tool that provides a basic user interface to simplify the handling of BI connectivity: importing schemas, defining virtual measures, creating scorecard metrics, and importing data.
6. What are the current system requirements for SSM?
That information can be found in the installation guides.There is a Master Guide and a Sizing Guide which will both be helpful.
7. Where can a documentation on SSM be found (I could unfortunately only find an installation guide on service.sap.com)?
The best public resource for documention about SSM is the BPX Community> Enterprise Performance Management
Hope this is helpful,
Bob

SAP e carreira

Boa noite a todos,
Meu nome é Josemir e a partir da semana que vem iniciarei meus trabalhos em uma empresa que está dando os primeiros passos na implantação de um sistema SAP. Apesar de já ter lido diversas matérias sobre a SAP, o ERP e várias outras aplicações da empresa dezenas de dúvidas passam pela minha cabeça a todo o momento e a maior delas é a seguinte:
Onde encontro uma formação SAP na região metropolitana de POA RS?
Me corrijam se eu estiver enganado, mas acho pouco provável que alguém como eu (Analista de Sistema que nunca exerceu a profissão e que programa em PHP e Delphi), vá conseguir assimilar o conteúdo necessário para gerir um projeto de implantação do sistema.
Gostaria que os colegas da comunidade pontuassem por gentileza, quais são as posições que geram melhores resultados em termos de carreira dentro do desenvolvimento ABAP e qual o melhor caminho a seguir para chegar até estas.
Um forte abraço a todos e desde já agradeço pelas respostas.

Olá Josemir, tudo bem?
Essa sua pergunta é uma pergunta recorrente, principalmente porque o mundo SAP parecer ser extremamente fechado para que não faz parte do mercado. Portanto, tem bastante material disponível que pode ajudar a respondê-la. Recomendo que, inicialmente, você acesse este link e este outro, pois tem muita gente com backgrounds diferentes discutindo a questão de como ingressar da melhor forma no mundo SAP/ABAP.
Outra coisa que eu já discuti bastante com amigos aqui da comunidade, é que aprender como trabalhar relativamente bem com ABAP, do jeito que a maioria dos projetos requer, não é tão difícil ( ~2 anos, se for esperto, já vai trabalhar bem). Porém, como em toda linguagem, uma coisa é aprender o idioma, outra é conseguir fazer algo realmente surpreendente com ele.
Desejo boa sorte na sua jornada!
Abs!
