MRS - Excluding TECO status ordes from planning board

Has anyone been successful in the above subject. We do not want to see any TECO'd jobs regardless of if they have been scheduled and completed, or just completed. I'm sure there is something custom we can do, however, if there is something inherent within MRS Configuration, that would be great. Thanks

There is also an option in the customizing to exlude orders based on the order header user status. This can be found under Sources of demand -> Orders -> Define resource planning relevance for PM/CS orders.
A user status has to be added and linked to TECO, then 'Relevance' checkbox has to be unmarked for the corresponding user status.
THe only problem is that MRS (MRSS/PLBOTIME) will display orders with assignments anyway.
We are now looking for a way to (automatically) remove the assignments from MRS when an order is TECO'd to prevent the orders from appearing.
Does anyone know how to achieve this?
Thanks.

Pool Asset Management - Assign Driver from Planning Board to equipment demand

How to assign a driver in sap pool asset management, using Planning board , since opening the demand through graphical board i need to assign an equipment & drive to the demand created

hi , you can use partner function to assign driver name.

Shipping Doucment creation on ETM Planning Board ..

Hello Everybody
I m planning machine hours of ETM equipment in my project (PS). I have done all the necessary settings required and are getting requirement generated automatically in ETM planning board without making requisition note. Planning board is also letting me assign PS requirement to ETM equipment but is not allowing me to create shipping document from planning board. When i press SHIPPING button on planning baord, message appears that " NO RECIPIENT COULD BE DETERMINED" !
Recipient and sender are mentioned in requisition note which i have avoided as i have generated requirement from my PS Project. Can anyone advise if i have to create requisition note for the requirement generated from PS Project as well or i could enter recipient in PS project as well?
Regards,
Kashif

Hello Everyone Again
I have found answer myself.
Recipient of ETM Requirement generated from PS Project has to be created through VD01 (Create Customer) with Project Definition as recipient type.
This recipient type allows certain project definition to be entered in customer master data which becomes the recipient while making shipment document of equipments.

MRS (Multi Resource Scheduling) - Show operation status in Planning Board

Because the current MRS thread is some long and complicated I chose to move this question into a seperate thread:
Initial question:
Like many companies, it is not unusual at my customer for their Planners to create orders with multiple operations, particularly since many orders require different crafts to perform the work. When the Planning Board is launched and Planners lok at work scheduled for the past week they want to be able to see at a glance which operations have been completed and which operations, perhaps from the same order, have not and may need to be rescheduled. Their preference is to select "final confirmation" when using transaction IW41 and thereby set the operation system status to CNF when the work on an operation has been completed. They then want to somehow use this CNF operation status to drive something visual in the graphical Demand layout display and Resource layout display to enable the Planner to see at a glance that the operation has been completed. I've tried several approaches with configuration of abstract statuses and the user interface profile without success. My customer's interest in being able to see the completion status of an operation in the MRS Planning Board makes a lot of sense to me. I'm hoping someone can help me with a technique for modifying the Planning Board so that it displays the completion status of an operation in a visual way.
Response from Varun Verma:
Hi Mark,
The problem at your customers end is nothing new.
What you can do ( many other customers have done it in similar way ) is:
1) you integrate the status CNF into MRS.
Check the customizing: Basic Settings -> Assign ERP Objects -> Status
2) configure in MRS that for status CNF, the assignments and demands (only in item work list or Hotlist) is colored to GREEN (or any other color)
Check customizing: Set Up Scheduler Workplace -> Workplace Profiles -> Define User Interface Profiles
Thus the users will know visually, that the green colored assignments are already completed.
By the way, in your work list you can also filter the demands based on their status
Regards
Varun.
Followup question:
Varun,
Thanks for the response. I thought I had tried this but perhaps it's because in the UI profile I had not entered something in both the status groups for assignments and the status groups for demands. I have a bit more testing to do but it appears that the demand status now gets updated from the operation status of PCNF (linked to abstract status WORK_START) and CNF (linked to abstract status WORK_STOP). I also get a red bar (C4) for PCNF and a green bar (C1) for CNF. Do you have a better status group I should be using in place of C1 and C4? Status groups C1 and C4 give me a bar but it doesn't look like the demand bar with a outline and alphanumeric description of the demand, it's just a colored bar.
I know the work list can be filtered based on their MRS "planning" status, however, it doesn't appear to permit filtering by the status of the operation unless I add the operation status as an additional field in the worklist. Is there something I'm missing here? And even if it did, my customer wants to be able to see the CNF status indication in the Demand layout and schedule using the work centers so the worklist is not being shown like it is in the Resource layout.

Hi Mark,
Well I assumed that you have confirmations integration active !! But I guess not because you say that the status is not integrated always.
What you need to do:
1) I assume you have SP05 or later.
2) Implement the user exit: CONFPM05. In the implementation of this exit you need to call FM: /MRSS/RSG_PM_ORDER_CONFIRM
3) Go to customizing: Basic Settings --> Assign ERP Objects --> Status
-- Here, define an abstract status (MRS Status) for confirmed and partially confirmed
-- map it to R3 status CNF and PCNF.
After this, whenever you enter confirmation for PM order from transaction IW41, the status will be integrated.
Now you can use the MRS statuses defined in step 3 to configure the colors.
Implementing the user exit CONFPM05 might require some technical input. But it is easy. Just a few double clicks and copy paste.
Contact an ABAP developer for the same.
This should solve your issue.

Varun

MRS - Resources and demands are not visible in the Planning Board

Hi Friends - I am working on the the MRSS 610. We have installed it on the our ECC 6.0 as an add-on. We have configured the system as per the configuration guide.
But when I am accessing Manageru2019s Planning Board - /MRSS/PLBOMGR , using the Organization unit, I am getting Notification saying that the resources assigned to the Organization unit are not available in the MRS.
"Resource 00000000010000000000000000000000 not yet created in the WFM Core"
The details of the Error message
"Resource 00000000010000000000000000000000 not yet created in the WFM Core
Message no. /MRSS/SGE034
Diagnosis

System Response
No assignments have been created for resource 00000000010000000000000000000000, even though, according to the organizational model, this resource is to be taken into consideration in the planning board.
Procedure
Contact technical support.
Procedure for System Administration
Create the resource in question in MRS."
I have run the Report
/MRSS/HCM_RPTWFMIF : Transfers the HR data (availability times, qualifications and the resources itself) into the MRS Basis
But even after that I am not getting the resources in the planning board.
Also I am not able to view the Demands from PM/CS orders.
I have created PM Orders and
Assigned Work centres to the operations and
assigned the Resources to the Operations.
The HR assignment to the work center is also done.
I have tried T Code /MRSS/PLBOSRV - Enter the MRS planning board using a specified order
to pull the order demand. But it is not working
Its giving following message
1004280 is not a valid demand
Message no. /MRSS/SGU139
Diagnosis
The order does not exist in MRS.
This may be because:
The order number has an invalid format.
The order does not exist.
The order is not relevant for planning and has therefore not been transferred to MRS.
The order has been deleted from MRS.
Pls help me on this.
Thanks in advance and warm regards
Purnendu

Hi Anil/Saurabh - Thanks a lot for your replies.
I have checked the MRS configuration as per your suggestion.
It looks fine as per the configuration guide. I have done the PM/CS integration for Orders as demand.
But the Demands are not visible on the Planning Board.
I have checked in the debugging mode what is causing the problem - It looks like
"The Database Table: /mrss/d_dem_h needs entry"
But there are no entries in this table.
I could not find any Customizing transactions or Application transactions for maintaining this table. This is an Application Table for Master and Transaction Data and its Display and Maintenance allowed with Restriction.
I could not also find any transaction for transferring Demand from ECC(R/3) to MRS.
How do I maintain entries in this table?
How do I transfer Demand from ECC to MRS?
Saurabh - I have also been not able to transfer HR Resources from ECC to MRS.
We don't have WFM Core installed in our instance. But MRS should work fine without WFM. MRS Basis should take care of it.
To transfer Employee resources i have run the Program " /MRSS/HCM_RPTWFMIF". But when I execute the transaction with the selection parameters system shows that it is processing (Clock at the bottom Status bar) but it does not shows any result or status.
So I am not sure whether it is executing the program properly.
Pls help me resolve these issues.
Thanks and warm regards

MRS (Multi Resource Scheduling) - Displaying Planning Board

I've gotten the MRS planning board to function the way I want it in my sandbox, for example, when I run /MRSS/PLBOTIME the all the resources show up that are in the planning node the resource planner is assigned to and all subordinate resource nodes. Also, the demand shows up. I thought life was good. I've now moved to my development box and configured the system the same as sandbox (to the best of my knowledge).
Now when I run /MRSS/PLBOTIME:
1. I get a popup window telling me that there are several valid resource planning nodes and requiring me to select one.
2. While the resources show up the demand does not.
Now when I run /MRSS/PLBOSRV:
1. The demands I selected show up but none of the resources do.
As I mentioned above, to the best of my knowledge, the MRS configuration is the same between the two boxes (e.g., work center types properly assigned, resource planning nodes and evaluation paths as delivered, user interface profiles, /MRSS/SGE_PN_MNT, etc.). I can't figure out why the popup window is now showing up asking me to select a resource plannng node and, more importantly, why in one case the resources show up but not the demand and in the other the demand shows up but not the resources. The only way I can now get both demand and resources to show up in the planning board is by running /MRSS/PLBOORGSRV.

Edited by: Mark Scott on Aug 13, 2009 8:58 AM

Thanks for the response:
/MRSS/PLBOTIME -->
1. What I had seen before in two other systems is that the org.units that are associated with me as the Resource Planner would show up, as well as all other subordinate org.units, both resources and demands. In this system what I see is that the demands associated with subordinate org.units are not showing up, only the resources. I went into another system I have access to in order to confirm what I had been seeing.
2. Also, when launching the Planning Board using this transaction in other systems I had never seen a window pop up telling me there were "several valid resource planning nodes" and asking me to pick an org.unit from the list, it always just gave me the org.unit I was associated with plus any subordinate ones. (We upgraded to SP06 last night and this morning this window didn't pop up, instead it gave me the resources and demand for the org.unit I am the Resource Planner for, as well as those for subordinate org.units....weird.)
/MRSS/PLBOSRV --> Logical as you described is what I expected, however, what I was seeing was that the resources associated with the demands were not showing up. After a closer look what appears to be happening is that the selected demands are being brought into the Planning Board but no resources unless the resource has previously been assigned to the demand. In other words, resources associated with the work centers used in the operations (and their linked org.units) are not showing up in this Planning Board, they only show up if they had previously been assigned to a demand. I can, of course, manually bring in resources once I'm in this Planning Board. Is this what you meant?
/MRSS/PLBOORD --> I followed your logic of "if I am responsible for the parent org.unit then I am responsible for the lower org.units also". However, the logic escapes me as to why this only applies to resources and not demand. Regardless, as long as I know that's how it works then I can deal with it.

Planning board user status at operation level

Hi Guys,
Our user is not using planning board and therefore system status should not have DISP status as system status.
Now user needs two profiles in the CM07 bases on the statuses SCH and RFS.
Profile 1: For operation user status=SCH
Profile 2: For operation user status=RFS
I know how to create over all profile for planning board from the below path.
IMG>Production>Capacity Requirements Planning>Evaluation>Profiles-->Define overall profiles
Could any one please suggest me where and how to define required user statuses against the profile.
Thanks,
Lucky

Hello,
Please check the transction BS02. or Below Path in SPRO

MRS 700 planning board alternative working schedule

Hi MRS-colleagues,
There is a button in the planning board "alternative working schedule. If I highlight one resource, Ican define an alternative working schedule for this resource, based on a period HR-subtype and daily working schedule.
My question is, if you assign this alternative working schedule to a resource, then the display and calculation of the availibility will be changed for the respective period. A business case for this could be, that you have to schedule more work to a technician than his availibility allows. The benefit compared to a attendance time allocation is, that you can create a daily work schdule and assign it for a period instead of creating attendances manually. Is that correct?
Do you have guuys have some practical cases, where this functionality is used? Are there any "bad consequences" of the usage and can I just use it permanently and then remove the "transfer availiblity" tag from the HR Transfer report?
BR
Olaf

Hi,
As you said the purpose of alernative workschedule and the HR report are same. There are no impacts if you use this button. Apart from the actual workschedule if you want to assign some more work to a technician you can do through this. This will not greyed out the planningboard for that period. on the top of availability in the gantt chart, it will be appear as a bar to identify the type of work you has assigned.

Time Specification Button in Planning board for MRS

Is it possible to remove the time specification in the planning board for MRS? I have disabled all the time type but we want to remove the time specification button?

The clients wanted to remove it but if it not possible then there is nothing I can do ..
Since we are the top of MRS, Do you know what the "Time Allocation from HR cannot be changed" mean and how do I get rid of it?

MRS (Multi Resource Scheduling) - Manager Planning Board

My understanding of the MRS Manager Planning Board is that it will only display those orders that have operations that have been assigned to a resource. If true, this would mean that the Manager Planning Board would be of little value to an organzation that is only using MRS to schedule to a work center because there would be no demand that had been assigned to a resource. It would only start to be of some value once the organization began to assign demands to resources. Is this correct? Or, do you see other value in the Manager Planning Board for an organization that is only scheduling to a work center?
I've also found that when I run the Manager Planning Board that the resources are displayed, however, I have to hit "refresh" in the Planning Board to get the orders/operations (demand) to display.
Mark
Edited by: Mark Scott on Aug 18, 2009 1:15 PM

Hi Mark,
As you already figured out correctly that the Manager planning board displays the resources (in display mode). It displays all the information about the resource: Its availability and assignments. since assignments are displayed, obviously the (related) demands are also displayed.
If the fine grained planning ( planning at resource level ) does not happen, then obviously it does not make sense to use the manager planning board transaction.
PS: As the name suggests this transaction is for managers who are not authorized to change anything but only for display. So they will see the resource availability and assignments in this transaction.

Hiding the Optimizer button from the DS planning board

Hi
How to hide the optimizer button from the DS planning board ..
Thanks

Hi Chak
I think the problem may be with a livecache inconsistency. The Planning Board should be reading it's information from the livecache, whereby the Product View may be getting it's situation from the database. Try running the livecache consistency checks if it occurs again.

MRS: PRT Tool Resource does not appear in Planning Board

Hi Experts,
I am trying to perform tool assignment but somehow the tool resource does not appear in the planning board. I have the following set up:
- Tool created as both material and Equipment (category P)
- Equipment assigned to work center linked to Org Unit
- Order with operations created with PRT assigned
What I am seeing in the planning board:
- I can see the operation with the linked PRT
- I can see the HR resource under the same work center Org Unit
- However, I cannot see the Tool resource.
Am I missing somethng here? Any kind of pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Jk

Thank you for your response, Varun.
I do have the equipment work center set to be the same as the operation work center. Also, when I try to add the PRT manually in the planning board, I get 2 error messages:
"Resource is not available"
"Selected equipment 0 is invalid"
Have you encountered this before?
Thank and Regards,
jk

Error while transporting Planning board profiles from Dev to QA

Hi All,
I have created planning board profile by copying an already existing Non-Standard profile.
The Profile is working fine in Dev and i am able to see all the charts and Graphical objects as per the settings in the profile.
But when i transport the profile to QA, it is giving error SAPBARC with text "Illegal number of columns in Chart". I checked what setting have been transported, and found that many of the setting have not been transported for the profile.
Also tried to move all the profiles, thinking, there might be some dependcy among them. But the problem still persists.
Awaiting for help...
Thanks in advance..:).

Hi Davis,
Before transporting transformation make sure either of source or target should availble in target system.
suppose you have a transformation between Data source and Data Target, first transport Data source, then transport Transformation along with data target.
Before tansporting Transformation either source or target should be avaialble in QA system..then only transportation will happen smoothly..
Hope this helps.
regards

Follow up to MRSS planning board how to populate

Thanks for teh reply Varun. It was correct as I did not knwo that the create/save populate teh planning board data via the BADi.
However 3 of the 4 added fields TPLNR, ABCKZ, and ILARTa re being populated in the Order Change (IW32) transaction but the field called Remaining Work field OFMNW_2 is not. It is generally calculated when teh actual work in teh IW41 confirmation is changed to less than planned. I.E. if the planned work was 8 and the operator puts 4 in actual work, then the IW41 screen shows remeaining work field filled in with the difference (4).
How can I populate this field via the BADi implementation PUSH_TO_MRS method. I tried to link the user exit for confirmation save (Enhancement CONFPM05, user exit EXIT_SAPLCORF_005 INCLUDE ZXCOFU05) to then invoke the instance of the class method call in the user exit after saving the remaing work field in an EXPORT to MEMORY ID:

Hi Stephen...
I think you are going wrong...
From you post I understand that:
1) You have implemented the user exit EXIT_SAPLCORF_005.
Note: This is called when you enter the confirmation in IW41.
2) Your understanding here is right that you need to integrate this information into MRS and you can do it from the above user exit.
3) But you are wrong -- if you call the BADI here.
Note: BADI methods will not work if you call them arbitrarily anywhere !! They work only when called in a specified program flow.
The given BADI is called during the forward integration -- meaning when the order is saved. After the BADI is called MRS save is called and the data is saved in MRS.
Calling the BADI method alone has not effect.
I suggest that you read more information about BADIs and User Exits.
Regards
Varun.

MRS and User Status

Hi Gurus
We are using MRS 8.00.
We decided to activate the usage of user status with MRS. Now it seems that we are missing some configuration. There are three functionality in planning board, one of them is not working which is - on the demand item (PM Order Operation) "Set Status Dispatched". Now the question here is how MRS will understand what is meant to be by the status DISPATCHED> There was an abstract status in the initial configuration of MRS and we used that one. We used the configuration step "Assign Status for Demands (ERP)" and we have assigned the Abstract Status DISPATCHED to an order type/plant and a user status. It seems that we are missing some more configuration steps.
Many thanks in advance

We had a similar requirement and this is what we did :
1) Set up a task as a reciever for the WORKORDER SAVE event.
2) In this task called a method of a business object.
3) In the method called STATUS_CHANGE_EXTERN to change the user status.
