New APO system

Hi Gurus,
I have created RFC and Integration Modules activated for Master data.My question is i am implementing PPDS and i just wanted to know what are the configurations steps need to be done before releasing data from ECC?
Please let me kow step by step it will be really great help.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
Generallly, in a PPDS environment, you need to carry out the below
configurational activities
1) Determining the heuristics and maintain those
2) Global settings
3) Number ranges
4) Strategy profile
5) Planning procedures
6) Detailed scheduling configurations
7) Planning board configurations

Planning areas not active in new APO system

Hi gurus,
We just installed SAP SCM 5.1 (APO) dev system, and I have an issue, we are seeing the Planning Areas and Planning Object Structures not active. Any ideas.
This is when we go from SAP Menu --> Demand Planning --> Environment --> Administration of Demand Planning and Supply Network Planning
Thanks
JS

to activate the Planning area you have to create time series objects..to do that right click on PA and click create time series objects.
Toactivate Planning object structure..right click on that and select "Activate"..you can see the status as green

Mutliple R/3 Systems connected to 1 APO System - Location CIFing issue

Hi,
I have a situation like 2 R/3 systems(S1&S2) are connected to 1 APO system. S1 is old system and S2 is new system, I am trying to connect with APO system.
In Development environment:
I have IMs in S1 to APO system, to CIF the master/transactional data. Some of the master/transaction data will be CIFing from new R/3 system(S2). I set the deletion flag to LOCATION in APO and CIFed from new R/3 system, it worked fine. This is working fine in Development.
In Test environment:
I have set the deletion flag to LOCATION and trying to CIF from new R/3 system. I am getting the following message
"Location 9999 of type 1002 (BSG BSG_TEST) already exists in APO".
I have verified the /SAPAPO/C1, /SAPAPO/C2 about the logical system and BSGs set up. It looks same as development. I also verified the the data in /SAPAPO/LOC, /SAPAPO/LOCMAP table for data. There is no record for location type 1002 and location 9999.
Any one has got this kind of issue? How did you resolve? Am I missing any config?
Thanks for your time and efforts in advance.
Thanks,
Sree

Hi ,
Have you mapped both the R/3 instances to same BSG group in APO ?
is it that location 9999 exists in both R/3 systems (S1 & S2) ?
in APO transaction /sapapo/loc3 just put this location number without the location type field and click on display.If the location is shown in APO , means that the location existis in APO and it is transferred as distribution center (loc type 1002).
Now you might be trying to send the same location as production location (loc typr 1001) , so it is conflicting with the exisiting definition.
Even though location is flagged for deletion for APO , you have run the report /SAPAPO/DELETE_LOCATIONS which can be scheduled as job in /sapapo/loc3 -
> Extras -
>Delete locations.

Mass Upload of condition records in APO system.

Hi All,
I wanted to mass upload condition records in to the APO system for the transaction /N/SAPCND/AO11 from an external file.
Is there any FM available?
If FM is not available...which one is the best way to do this?
LSMW?? or BDC???
Please guide me..
Thanks,

2 ECC systems with 1 APO system

Hi All,
We have the same data in 2 ECC clients linked up to an APO box. We had to do that to test the new data load and the project did not invest in a new APO box.
We plan to keep all in one Business System Group as we want the same product, location numbers etc in APO. Using separate BSGs and CIF exits to modify product numbers etc is not an option as it will impact all BI reports etc..
I would like to know if it is possible to have such an architecture. If yes, how does the APO system send back the information to ECCs, how does it know where to send, if both ECC systems are specified in publications.
Regards,
Zeeshan.

my basis is very basic but - have you looked at partitioning into separate clients? i suppose you can connect two different ECC systems to two different clients in APO
if you dont want locations to be changed it will turn to be a little difficult i think. if you did not have that issue you could prefix the location based on the ecc system. there are some posts in this forum on that

Goods Receipts data from ECC 6.0 to APO system

Hello Team
Good day to you. Now i have the below requirement.
1. From legacy system i am getting Goods Receipt data and i want to create GRs in ECC system. for this i found a relavent bapi (ie BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE). please correct me if i am wrong.
2. As soon as GRs gets create in ECC system, i want to push this data to APO system for udpates. -- > so for this requirement i want to know is there any user-exit/badi exists in which i can write a code to trigger the RFC function module which takes data from ECC system and updates into APO system or is there any other way to perform this task. please suggest me on this.
my Interface landscape is as below.
Legacy system -
> ECC system -
> APO sytem
i want to push GR data from legacy system to APO sytem as mentioned in the above two steps. so requesting you to please suggest the solution accordingly.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mario
Thank you very much for your detail explanation. But i think i have put a wrong question to you, i am so sorry for this. i am very new to this process. so i am putting my requirement and the options suggested below. so i request you to please check and suggest me accordingly. In Option 3 what is the BADI i need to use and what is the process to follow to complete my option 3 which is suggested. your suggestions will help me a lot.
Thanks in advance very much.
My requirement is below with the options suggested are given below.
Design Decision and Options
Description
Describe the problem which requires a decision to be made.
In the current design for Phase 1 go live, goods receipts from production will be generated through interfaces I608 (when production is receipted in PRISM) and I622 (when production is receipted via OPUS). This will update the stock levels in the ECC system. As the Core Interface (CIF) between ECC and APO will be active, the stocks will also be updated in APO.
In APO, the production orders will not be reduced by the confirmed amounts until the PRISM to APO interface (I642) runs overnight. Until the production orders are reduced there will be double counting in APO leading to incorrect planning and GATP results.
*Options(
List the options that have been considered as potential solutions
Option 1: Increase the frequency of the current PRISM to APO interface.
Option 2: Build additional Interface between PRISM & APO for production confirmations.
Option 3: Build enhancement to ECC GR to update APO production orders.
Option 1: Increase the frequency of the current PRISM to APO interface
Describe the pros and cons of option 1
Pros
No change to system design
Cons
Significant potential for issues with synchronous timing between Goods Receipts in the ECC system and Production Orders from PRISM to APO
Interface method requires deletion/creation of production orders in APO which will cause issues for APO users
Option 2: Build additional interface between PRISM and APO for production confirmations
Describe the pros and cons of option 2
Pros
Interface method of updating production orders will not cause issues for APO users.
Cons
New interface
Development work required in PRISM to feed new interface
Significant potential for issues with synchronous timing between Goods Receipts in the ECC system and Production Orders from PRISM to APO
Delay between GR from OPUS and production confirmation from PRISM to APO
Option 3: Build enhancement to ECC GR to update APO production orders.
Describe the pros and cons of option 3. If only 2 options, then delete this section. If more than 3 options, then add further sections.
Pros
Ties the APO production confirmation to the ECC goods receipt, mimicking phase 2 scenario
Will not cause issues for APO users
Removes timing issue between goods receipt and production order confirmation
Cons
New development.
Assumptions for Proposed Development:
Utilise available BADi upon posting of goods receipt
Will generate qRFC that will run Production Confirmation BAPI in APO
BADi executes in update task of goods receipt
Interface for goods receipts will contain PRISM production order number
Recommended Decision
State which option is recommended as the decision, and the reason why this option has been recommended.
Option 3: Build enhancement to ECC GR to update production orders in APO.

Raj

All Open Sales Orders in APO system

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement in which we have to get all open sales orders in SAP APO system for 2013. Please suggest if there is some way to do this.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Manjunatha,
RRP1 will list all the requirements: sales orders, forecast, dependent demand, putchase order release, etc.
Same than in all the ALV reports, you can change the layout, sort, use filters in order to only see the document that you need, etc.
Here you can an example of my system, where you have sales orders in RRP1:

Can we add new logical system in Entitlement tab in SAP Authentication.

Hi ,
We already Installed and configured sap integration kit and every thing works fine. My question is as of now we connected our sap BW Dev system to BOBJ but we would like to connect to BW Prod System to same BOBJ System. What are the steps we need to follow to do this.
Can we just add the new logical system in entitlement tab of sap authentication in BOBJ 3.1? and import the roles and login to BOBJ USING THE Newly added SYSTEM Credentials. Thanks in Advance.
Thanks,
SK.

Hi Ingo,
Thanks for the information.
Are there any specific steps you need to follow when you are adding one more system to sap authentication. can you please give the steps we need to follow to setup this in right way. Thanks in advance.
Is there any thing we need to configure on sap side other than sap logon ticket parametre. If you can please provide the steps it will be great. Thankyou very much In advance.
Thanks,
SK.

Stock value is not getting updated in APO system From ECC automatically

Hi All,
Stock value is not getting updated in APO system From ECC automatically but if we do it manually from transaction CFM2 it will get updated.
for this we are using EXIT_SAPLCSTK_001.
I am using VL10A for delivery and VL06G for PGI
I have also checked integration model for material and stock.
Please help me out as it is very urgent.
Thanks,
Gaurav Mittal
Edited by: GAURAV MITTAL on Feb 6, 2008 6:09 PM

Hi,
for transferring the stock data from R/3 to APO automatically, you need to have the integration model for material and stock activated.
please check the same.
if this does not help, let me know in detail the steps which you are following..

To load data from a cube in SCM(APO) system to a cube in BI system.

Experts,
Please let me know whether it is possible to load data from a cube in SCM(APO) system to a cube in BI system.If so explain the steps to perform.
Thanks,
Meera

Hi,
Think in this way,
To load the data fro any source we need datasource Ok. You can genare Export data source for Cube in APO, then use that datasource for BW extraction, try like this. I think it will work, in my case I'm directly loading data from APO to BW using the DataSource sthat are genaraed on Planning Area.
Why you need to take data from APO cube?. Is there any condition for that?. If it is not mandatory, you can use the dame datasource and load the data to BW, if they have any conditions while loading the data from APO to APO cube, they you try check wherther it is possible in BW or not. If possible then you use DataSource and do the same calculation in BW directly.
Thanks

Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original location - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it

Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original locations - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it - also, when transferring large amounts of files it becomes a very large problem remembering which files were transferred and which not.

You're going to need to be more specific, as I'm not quite sure I understand what you're talking about.
If you're referring to copying from an external hard drive or flash drive, and you want to actually move files rather than copy them, you can hold down the option key to force it to do a "move" rather than a "copy." This is not new behavior, though... the Mac OS has worked this way as long as I can recall (and I've been using it since 1984).
If you're having a problem with trying to move files from one place to another on a single drive causing them to be copied instead, that is likely because of some permissions issue preventing you from actually being able to move them.

New Development System

Hi, just wanted to bounce some ideas off you guys.
We are about to create a new ECC 6 system initially a sandbox system for blue print then a Dev system.
My organisation as a global finance SAP template that we will use. So the steps would be a fresh install, then install the global finace templete, not sure how but will probably a system copy.
We also have another stream of work being undertaken in another part of the organisation which is all being done in its own landscape. We need to split out some of this functionality to use on our system (about 2000 transports).
I don't want to copy all of this work over to the Dev system probably from their QA system as it has a load of master / transaction data, but it will give everything we require OK we would need to some clean up work.
The other option would be to selct the transports that we require and apply them, sequencing will be a issue,
Ideally I guess the best solution is for all the work to be performed again in the new Dev system
Its a tricky one, I need the fucntionality but want to keep the system as clean as possible. The QA system will be built on the transports from Dev.
Any thoughts appreciated,
Thanks

Ideally I guess the best solution is for all the work to be performed again in the new Dev system
You will be right on this. Problem w/ a "easy" solution via transport is that you may run into cross development with the same object fighting eachother. This could result in unexpected behavior in the system, which would turn into a diagnostics nightmare.
We are currently in middle of upgrading to ECC 6.0. The plan here inhouse is to actually freeze all modifications for period of 1 quarter, allowing only production fixes only. This would minimize the number of transports that we have to manually consolidate.

New Development system copy from Production

Hi All,
Hope you can help me out here with some ideas.
We are currently planning to implement a new SAP BW Development system, and for this we would like to make it a 1:1 copy of our current production system. Meaning all from customizing, ABAP, workbench objects etc.
But what we do not want is all the transaction and master data in infoobject, cubes etc., we are only interested in the structure and objects. Therefore we can rule out "System copy".
My question is then, is there any other ways to do this when system copy is a no go? I know we can do client copy but then we will not get all the workbench / ABAP programs which we need.
Any ideas on how to do this?
Thx. in Advance

Hi Rasmus,
But what we do not want is all the transaction and master data in infoobject, cubes etc., we are only interested in the structure and objects. Therefore we can rule out "System copy".
Options 1: As BI objects are cross client , copying client will not solve your purpose 100%.
You can perform system copy and then clean up data in DEV
Option 2: You can create a new Development and then create TRs for required configuration objects and move to new development system.
Option 3: Use SLO tools to perform container copy without any data.
Hope this helps.

Orders which are PGIed in APO system

Hi APO experts,
Could you please tell me which table provides me the information of the orders which are PGIed in APO?
I know that there is a table called /SAPAPO/OBREF which gives you the delivered quantity as soon as you create a delivery.
But, I wanted to find out for that entry delivery has been PGIed or not within APO system.
I dont want to go to ECC to pick up the data as it will be performance overheard.
Appreciate your reply on this.
Thanks,
Babu Kilari

Hi Tibor,
Could you please let me know which field are you talking about in that table. Because, I have checked that table and I dont see any table which gives me information whether it has been PGIed or not?
Hope you understand my question.
Thanks,
