Hi Kumar
I have tried to answer three of your questions. Hope this will help
Ques. Do we have BPF (Business Process Flow) in BPC 7.0 NW version?
Reply: No
You can refer to the thread: BPC 7.0 - how to design business process flow type Planning process?
Ques. If no, How can we do Approval process in 7.0 NW version ?
Reply: Approval process works with changes in the work status settings while data planning moves over the controlling Approval hierarchy. So in the schedule you can have a display of the current work status using EVLCK()
Ques: Can we do Approval Process with Custom menus ?
Reply: You can refer to the thread: BPC 7.0 - how to design business process flow type Planning process?
"There is also a lot of explanation on using EVMNU on the SAP Service Marketplace in the Documentation Addendum to BPC 7.0 SP02 NW Central Note 1306898."
Have a nice day.

BPC 10 version for SAP NetWeaver & Dashboards/Xcelsius

Hi All,
We are currently trying to integrate an Xcesius dashboard within a BPC 10 workspace however the documentation is rather 'thin' in this area. While trying to follow the BPC 7.5 documentation there are some clear differences in the steps you need to take to deploy a dashboard, particularly in regards to contexts.
Can anyone help me with a how-to or detailed information on this integration?
Edited by: Paul Thomson on Mar 9, 2012 1:11 PM

Hi all,
I'm working with a client to create some dashboards for BPC 10 NW, and would like to explore using SAP Dashboards (Xcelcius) to do deliver this in the web.
The problem we face is that when creating a dashboard, and using a new EPM Report in the XLS data source for the charts, the master data does not refresh on the report dynamically.
This means, when creating an initial dashboard for 'all projects' that displays 5 projects, it works great, but once a 6th or 7th proejct is created in BPC master data, it is not added to the BPC report as seemingly the report is not refreshed on runtime - just the data.
Is this something any of you have come across before, and if so, is there a work-around?
It is considerable work for an Administrator to refresh and upload the dashboards just to ensure frequent master data updated so please help!
Cheers,
Nick

SAP BPC NW version with SAP Dashboard Design (No Local Connection)

Dear ALL,
I'm working on SAP BPC NW version 10.0 and I'm trying to build some dashboards on it using SAP Dashboard Design.
So, I follow some links online and I failed to proceed at the very beginning stage:
To create a "Local" connection in Excel EPM Add-in.
From the drop down box for the available connection types, I can just see Planning and Consolidation versions for both MS and NW, but nothing called "Local" as referred in those web.
Any ideas?
BR,
Antony

Hi Antony,
Go through the SAP Note 1730125.
Check the attached doc "SAP Business Planning and Consolidation 10.0, version for SAP NetWeaver" in the note
for more details.

NO Version Management in SAP BPC-is it in SAP BPC7.0 NW AND/OR SAP BPC70 MS

All,
As far as I know SAP BPC doest not have versions management. How you guys out there handle version management for SAP BPC. Do we have VM on SAP BPC 7.0 NW?
Why there is no VM in BPC. Come on convince me : - )
Thanks,
SK

Guys,
What is the verdict on Version Management being there in BPC? Can you (Saquib or others) give an example as to what Version Management functionality you might be looking for?
From the little I know, when you are doing software development through lifecycle (in SAP it would be called Transport strategy) management, you promote different changes in the target system and hence SAP has an implicit version management. I am assuming that BPC 7.0 NW version would have that automatically since it is promoted through transport strategy only. Are you referring to the same thing as version management or is it something else? But I also read somewhere that only appset is promoted through transport and not sure if each and every component is part of that.
Please enlighten with your insighs.
Thanks.

SAP BPC Upgrade Review by SAP

Will SAP provide any kind of review of on the SAP BPC Upgrade from 4.2 to 7.0 M done by Partners

Yes, it's possible to arrange for a review by SAP Consulting. You should contact your local SAP office, either through your existing contacts, or speak to the Consulting Services organization. They can direct you to the BPC experts in your region of the world.
If the partner doesn't have prior experience with BPC upgrades (and Outlooksoft 4.2 in general), I'd recommend that you involve SAP as early as possible, before starting the upgrade if possible.

Questions on SAP BPC 10.1

Dear Friends,
I have some basic questions as below, could you please answer?
1) Can we create Excel Reports from Excel interface (EPM Add-in)?
2) Once we create the Unified model, can we see this unified model in BW? as a cube?
3) How to make Unified model in to Auditable status? Currently my unified model is showing RED dot under Auditable status. Will it show GREEN if its Auditable ?

What should I do here?
5) Can we write a Script logic / BADI to perform a calculation in Unified model? Do we have Data Manager Packages in 10.1?
6) How give Security access like Task Profiles, Member access profiles?

SAP BPC 10 Certification - Functional

Hi
I have strong functional & domain expertise in FICO.
I am looking forward to train & certify myself in BPC. My basic understanding is BPC is having both technical & functional expertise.
From certification point of view do we have 2 certifications or is it only one certification covering both functional & technical.
My knowledge in BI & Technical is almost nil. How i can prepare myself in this case.
Regards
Aravind

Hi Aravind,
Considering your experience, you should go for functional certification in BPC.
Please search certifications here

SAP BPC and SSM

Hi guys
I am currently working on SAP BPC Financial planning project. I know that SAP BPC is used for financial planning & consolidation while SAP SSM is used for operational reviews.I was wondering if there is a value in connecting SAP BPC and SAP SSM. If yes, then how can the financial forecasted numbers in SAP BPC be used in SAP SSM (from conceptual perspective and not technical perspective).
Please let me know.
Thanks,

I suggest to perform the follow steps:
1. Do a client Diagnostic from Client Software Page and make sure everything is green and you have all prerequisite software installed.
2. Make sure you are connected into you PC with an user which is administrator. Otherwise you are not able to install BPC client.
3. Open Add Remove programs and make sure you don't have a previous installation of SAP BPC. Any other version later than 5.x must be removed to be able to install BPC 5.x client.
4. Restart your computer and try to install again BPC client from Client Siftware page in case if you validate steps 1,2,3.

Writing data from BW-IP into BW to be reported instantly in BPC 7.5 NW

Dear all,
we are currently designing an integrated BPC 7.5 NW / SAP BW planning environment. Due to various restrictions part of the plan data is supposed to be collected via SAP BW-IP. This is a must have-requirement.
At the point of time when the data is entered via SAP BW-IP we want to be able to report those numbers out of SAP BPC.
For my understanding with BPC 7.5 NW the "BPC world" will have/require specific cubes in the BW system below, which is the same for the BW-IP environment.
Therefore our first guess for this issue would be, that once an user enters data via BW-IP a BW-IP planning functionality writes those data into both cubes (BW-IP cube and BPC cube). We have seen this in a shared SEM BPS / BCS environment earlier, where SEM BPS wrote / copied data directly into the BCS cube. Therefore our expectation is, that the same might be possible for a shared BPC / BW environment.
Is this a feasible scenario from your point of view or are you aware of any other "best practise" on an issue like this?
Any thoughts shared would be highly appreciated.
Thank you
Christian

Christian,
No, using IP aggregation levels to write into a cube in the BPC namespace is not a supported scenario. The rule of thumb is that no customer development is supported against objects in the BPC namespaces. It is technically possible to do this (in your example, putting an aggregation level on top of a BPC cube), but it is highly un-advisable as the BPC cube can be deleted and recreated without warning and it is not guaranteed to have the same technical name in all environments, so you may not be able to transport aggregation levels.
So what do you do? I think you are either going to need to move all your data input into BPC (I know you say this is not acceptable, but it is something to keep in mind), give up on the requirement for instant reporting in BPC on the BW-IP input data and push data to BPC periodically, or face a very complex custom development task against unpublished APIs (i.e. if you mess up your BPC installation you'll probably be on your own).
Without more detail about the problem you are trying to solve, it is hard to recommend which is the best solution, but in general I'd recommend staying away from the custom development option.

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.
