Multiperiod Consolidation Consolidation Cycle

We have selected Multiperiod Consolidation in the cons area and created a Consolidation Cycle, but the system will not allow us to save the cons frequencies to the cycle. When we attempt to save this, the system message is that there is no changes to be save.
We have assigned the cycle in the version combinations and this is saved.
We have regenerated the cons area and checked the authorizations with no luck in resolving this.
If anyone has encountered this and resolved it it would be most appreciated if you would please share the resolution with us.
Thanks, Dan

Dear Dan,
As per my understanding first period,year of the multi-period consolidation is must.
Starting period of the multi period consolidation will be mentioned at "version combinations" and year period limit will be mentioned while defining "consolidation cycle".
May be its worth re-visiting consolidation cycle creation.
how many "delta years" manetioned in consolidation cycle?
One more point. First period mentioned in version combination should be in sync with cosnolidation frequency mentioned in consolidation cycle.
Thanks

Multiperiod Consolidation - Web (EHP2)

Hi!
Quick question.
We are on SEM-BCS 6.0 EHP2 with availability of the WEB Consolidation Monitors.Since we are decentralizing data collection for our budget version we have configured multiperiod consolidation.
Question: The WEB Monitor for the Corporate Accountant (CORP) has the menue item for "Update Remaining Periods" not so the WEB Monitor for the Local Accountant (LOC).
Has anybody come across this condition - is this a bug with the web interface!?
Regards, Frank
P.S. I'd be glad to award points for useful hints.

Have you checked authorisation? Not sure though it might help.

EHP 2 Multiperiod consolidation for Load from datastream

Any experience of using multiperiod consolidation with load from datastream functionality, as opposed to flexible upload?

not with LFDS but I have several other tasks and
i don't see any problems with multiperiod monitor as long as there is no manual intervention required
(eg if you the task requires choosing a file or entering manual entries, then multiperiod monitor will ignore it).
have you got a specific error to tell us about?

Consolidation - T Code CXCD Period scrolling not enabled for FY 2010

Hi Masters
I am new to EC - CS and having some issues with Display options in T Code CXCD - Data Monitor
When I enter period 01 and Fiscal Year 2010, system displays following message:
Period 001/2010 is not a valid period in consolidation cycle 001
Message no. G00085
Then it does not show me the arrows on the menu bar to scroll from period to period.
But if I enter period 01 and fiscal year 2009, these arrows are displayed.
What should be done to enable these arrows for fiscal year 2010 also?
Appreciate your help on this.
Thanks
Satya

Hi Masters
Thanks for your views and replies.
I found out what is causing this issue. We need to maintain Delta years under "Assignment of Cons Frequencies to Cons Cycle". This is accessible using T Code CX5TD.
I had assigned one more year as data value with same frequency as earlier years.
This had solved my issue of navigating arrows in T Code CXCD - Data Monitor for FY 2010.
Thanks

Flexible Upload of Data for several periods/years

Hey Colleagues,
my client wants me to develop a new functionality to upload data for several periods/years. The function they are using right now and correctly is the flexible upload.
As we have already developed several custom tasks and enhancements/modifications we try to not modificate further SAP standard or to post directly (back-door solution)
But:
It is no problem to start the flexible upload for different selecitons and to provide the values in an excel sheet. But I have problems to avoid a popup for selecting the excel file. It would be no problem if for example Batch-Input would work here, or if we would post directly using standard functionality (posting method with data change) but in this case we try to use the flex upload.
Has anyone experienced a similiar problem? Can we use the flex upload with suppressing the popup to select the file WITHOUT an enhancement?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Yavuz

Hi Yavuz,
Yes this can work for every period in one year - use the multiperiod processing option, available since EHP2 (BCS 6.02).
The multiperiod processing requires you to define the consolidation cycle and start period, so you could define it to start with p1 and include all 12+ periods of the year.
NB the multiperiod processing is initiated by running with selection screen - right click and selec "run for remaining periods of the year"
You can run either a task or a task group for the rest of the consoliation cycle, but data collection with flexible upload MUST have the presentation server settings (already mentioned above) or the data collection task will not work.
So you make the configuration settings
You then save your multi-period file on the presentatin server
You then go to data collection (flexible upload) task in p1 and "run for remaining periods"

EC-CS: Error Message no. G00085; Period not valid

Hi Gurus,
Greetings
I am in a implementation and been assigned to configure the Consolidation process in an ERP 6.0 environment. We are using SAP EC-CS and i am new to this entire process. I am also not sure whether my config is 100 percent correct.
I went by the IMG steps and configured the entire setup, but not able to see a proper cosolidated report.
Whenever i run T-Code CXCD "Data Collection Monitor" i am getting an error message as "Period 009/2008 is not a valid period in consolidation cycle XXX". XXX is my consolidation cycle.
Can anyone please throw some light on what could be the problem.
Thanks & Regards,
Chaps

Hi Jigar,
Thank you for your replies...
Actually i had maintained all the prerequisites for the Data Collection and the Consolidation Monitor.
I also executed the interunit elimination entries.
The problem occurred when i tried to consolidate the data for previous fiscal years (i.e. 2002 to 2007).
After completing the tasks / task groups, i executed the consolidated financial statement comparison report "S_ALR_87011792" and found that the total value is not reconciling with the individual financial statement report (F.01 / F.54). I don't know where i am making problems. Can you please guide me on this.
I am not sure whether this is a configuration problem.

Chaps

HFM 11.1.2.3 Configuration - Issue with Consolidation Administration

Hi,
This is regarding a new/fresh installation EPM 11.1.2.3 and have an issue with configuration on HFM; the deployment is distributed as below
1) Server 1 : Foundation,WebLogic Admin(/OHS) - Workspace/Shared Services/Planning/Calc Manager/EAS/APS
2) Server 2: Essbase
3) Server 3 : EPMA/HSF/HFM(FDMee/DRM-Yet, to be installed and configured) - Hadnt used these products and this is totally new to me.
We have issues with HFM - and while opening the Consolidation Administration.
We get an error as below, in workspace
An unexpected error has occured.Check server log or contact your system administrator for more information.
The web app logs suggested below errors- This is only part of the error log
E:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\EPMSystem\servers\HFMWeb0\logs\oracle-adf.log
Part of log
oracle.adf.model.adapter.DataControlFactoryImpl] [SRC_METHOD: createSession] Exception: [[
oracle.adf.model.adapter.AdapterException: DCA-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.epm.fm.common.exception.HFMException, msg=There is no registered cluster or server
I hadnt configured 'Configure Cluster' during the HFM configuration; this was a mistake being new to HFM.
On a further readup online on OTN etc, found that an application cluster is a must have on HFM, even if it is for one server.
Have one confusion now for fixing this,
Do a configuration only for 'Configure Cluster', and restart services to fix this issue
or
Do a configuration for 'Configure Cluster'and then again re-Configure HFM components
Configure > Financial Management — Configure Cluster
Re-Configure > Financial Management — Configure Application Server
Re-Configure > Financial Management — Configure Web Server
Re-Configure > Financial Management — Configure Web Application
Re-Configure > Financial Management — Enable Smart View Provider
Re-Configure > Financial Management — Enable Life Cycle Management Provider
Re-Configure > Financial Management — Enable Web Services

Got help from Oracle Support, and this problem is now resolved. The HFM app server was configured fine, earlier.
Had to follow below steps on the EPM configurator.
Stop Services
HFM - Configure Cluster
HFM - Configure Web Server
HFM - Deploy to App Server
Foundation - Configure Web Server.
Start Services
Refresh workspace

Transport to consolidation system doesnot reflect in components

Hi There,
We have configured a separate Consolidation system for our WebDynpro developments. and we are using TCS for deployment. After import to consolidation system and TCS deployment , changes are not reflecting in Consolidation system.
We defined new track and its components and after initial imports we got development configuration in Development studio and made changes.
Thereafter we have followed these steps
1) We released and transported all our changes from Webdynpro Studio.
2) started Import on Consolidation tab and all components were successfully imported.
3) started TCS deployer for selected track_c and that also completed, without any error messages
4) test in consolidation system shows webdynpro changes have not been moved.
This is first round of imports on this track, if there is anything we might have missed out.
Please suggest.
Thanks a lot for your time.
Rgds

Solved this..
Created one more request with application files and followed the cycle.. and this time it deployed application. Weird though worked.
Cheers

No consolidation system found for FMD-121 (project EU_FMPM01)

I have created the maintenance project EU_FMPM01. Added the logical components. Created the IMG project. When I go and try to create a maintenance cycle I am getting the error explained in the subject
"No consolidation system found for FMD-121 (project EU_FMPM01)"
What could be the reason for this ?
Thanks & Regards : Bobby Bal

Hi Bobby,
Which is your TMS landscape for the systems in project EU_FMPM01
DEV---->TST----->PRD
       ! zdev
       !------>
        sap
From DEV to TST this are consolidation routes SAP and ZSID
From TST to PRD delivery route
Ensure that you have follow all SPRO activities for TMS in solman and satellite systems.
If you go in solman to /nstms you can see the above systems routes?
Hope this helps,

Consolidation Error in SAP TAO 2

Hi all,
I'm using SAP TAO 2.0.4.1 and getting errors while doing consolidation. I'm getting a consolidated component of a unit test but when running it QC shows it status as failed with the below error,
Run Error:Type mismatch: 'SetExitConsolidatedComponentOnFailure'Line (6): "SetExitConsolidatedComponentOnFailure(False)".
Can anyone tell me why this error comes and how to rectify it.
Thanks
gm

Hi,
Please check if this could help:
The user receives the error, "Type mismatch," when executing a test
from the Test Lab tab of TestDirector.
Diagnosis:
          This happens if there is a corruption in the data
          for the Execution Flow of TestDirector.
Solution
         Clear out the Execution Flow data to remove the corruption
         1. Open the Site Administrator and go to the Projects tab.
         2. Expand the project and highlight the CYCLE table.
         3. Run a SQL Statement similar to the one below; where
            <TestSetName> is the name of the Test Set with the problem.
    UPDATE CYCLE set CY_DESCRIPTION= NULL where CY_CYCLE='<TestSetName>'
         4. Clear out your TestDirector cache on the Client machine(s).
Thanks

Balance Carry forward and Consolidation

Dear Friends,
I am completed the one cycle of consolidation using three methods in example cycle.... but I am facing the problem in balance carryforward after completing the one cycle of consolidation.
Can anyone please help me to understand the whole process of carryforward the balance after completing the one cycle of consolidation and after completing the carryforward how to run again the consolidation run what are the effects.
Thanks and regards,
MD.

Hi,
What is the problem with CarryForward? Does it succeed or fail? Does it move figures around? Please post a screen-shot of your CopyOpening Business Rule table and script logic so I can tell you why it isn't working.
Typically you would carry forward all Balance Sheet figures from 20X0.DEC to 20X1.JAN, and from the closing flow (or acctdet) to the opening. You would normally do this for Input-type DataSrcs (up to Consolidation adjustments).
Once you have a Balance Sheet in opening flow for 20X1.JAN, you would then load 20X1.JAN's closing trial balance for the same month into closing flow.
Consolidation will run on YTD BS figures and work in exactly the same way as in the first year.
Please be more specific if you need any more info.
Tom.

Difference between Legal and Managerial consolidation?

Hi,
Can you guys please share your knowledge for this question
Difference between Legal and Managerial consolidation?
Thanks,
Charly

This is quite a general question and should not be answered only in context of BPC.
Paraphrasing your question is not really a help.
In general a Legal Consolidation is one whose purpose is to meet statutory requirements [whereever/whatever they are].
For example generating data for Shareholders on an annual basis in Glossy Annual reports.
A managerial consolidation may be similiar in several ways, but focuses on internal factors and may have a different entity structure than that of the Legal structure. Management reports are typically used at the end of any given reporting cycle (actual/budget/forecast etc) and allow 'management' to guage the performance/review the data of their business.
I suggest looking this up on the various financial websites, where you will get better definitions.
Of course in BPC it is possible to do Legal consolidations without 'legal ownership cubes' and this is what many 4.2 customers have done.
In modern BPC i would check the scope of the consolidaton requirements before choosing any 'bpc consolidation methodology'
Raghu's links are also useful in context of BPC.

Consolidating Book objects

I'm an amateur programmer trying to write a fairly basic java application. Please excuse me if my terminology and/or code is sloppy. I've tried searching for this answer on a few forums (including this one) but can't seem to find a solution. I'm hoping someone here might recognize what I'm missing.
In a nutshell I have an array of JTextPane objects which I'm attempting to consolidate into a single Book object to facilitate printing or exporting to a pdf. I'm attempting to create a Book from each JTextPane, then appending each Book object to one 'master' Book object.
The problem is that the 'master' Book is incomplete. It contains the correct number of pages, but only content from the first Book is included. The remaining pages are blank. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Book _compiledBook = new Book(); //Create the 'master' book
//Program specific code. Section objects house several objects including the JTextPanes I'm consolidating
ArrayList<Section> _sectionArray = TemplateGUI._sectionManager.getSectionArray();
//Cycle through my section object array
for (int $i=0; $i < _sectionArray.size(); $i++) {
        //Pull the JTextPane for each section
     JTextPane _targetPane = _sectionArray.get($i).getJTextPane();
        //Create a new book using the JTextPane, for simplicity's sake I have not included code for
        //the method that creates the Book object. I have been able to test the code and confirm
        //that every Book object is correctly assembled at this point
     Book _newBook = createBook(_targetPane);
         //For each page in this Book
        for (int $j=0; $j < _newBook.getNumberOfPages(); $j++) {
                    //Append the page to the 'master' Book object
              _compiledBook.append(_newBook.getPrintable($j), _newBook.getPageFormat($j));
}

hi to all. i wanna create a vector which only is
consisted of objects of a previously created book
class. but when i use the constructor Vector books=new
Vector (Book c);
it gives error. what is the correct way to do this? The two replys are both helpful correct but lack documentation. What you want to do requires two steps.
The first step is to create a Vector object.
Vector books = new Vector();The second step is to load that object with the set of book objects. For each book object in the set, say with a for loop:
books.add(Book c);Now the Vector object "books" has a set of Book objects.

Plan consolidation

Hi,
We are on SEM BCS 6.0
The business does planning for next two fiscal years in advance. For example in FY2010, they would do planning for FY2011 and FY2012.
In FY2011, they would do planing for FY2012 and FY2013 and so on...so in each year there are two plan figure which are done in 2 years.
Now the requirement is to take this plan figure in BCS and carryout consolidation. Can you please advise how to configure this? I think version would be neceessy but for each FY there would be two sets of plan data one planned in n year and other in n+1 year. Kindly advise
Regards,
UR

Agree with Dan,
overwrite the old plan each tiem you get a new one - unless for some reason you still need it? (I don't think you do).
Also, we use the "multiperiod monitor" function in EHP2 to consolidate the whole year
(NB if you are loading from a text file you will need to create a file server location to load all 12 periods at once)
We do something similar with a 'rolling' forecast overwriting old forecast values each 3 months
Other option
Otherwise you could create 2 versions and use them alternately - but this could make a mess in your reports and different versions of the truth
eg do I look at version 200 (contains "20082009", "20102011") or 201 (contains "20092010", "20112012") to see the plan for 2011?
Also, you could end up with very many versions in BCS, what if they start planning more often or for 3 years at a time?!
