New category for SNP planning

Hi Experts,
I would like to bring 'maintenance orders' as a new requirement category for SNP planning. These orders are to be considered as demand element (using a new LC order keyfigure). Customized Order type in order category 30 are available for these maintenance orders, which is required to be mapped in to a new requirement ATP category in APO. Please guide me with right procedure.
Thanks and regards,
Raghav

Hi Raghav,
Good to know that you achieved what you wanted to.
But for our benefit, can you share in more detail, how did you manage to do it?
you stated that you created a new order category ''Order Reservation Withdrawable'', which lets say is ZZ. and you must have added this category to the category group which is assigned to your dependent demand key figure.
But can you share how did you ensure that the order reservations for maintenance orders that you created in R/3 managed to flow to this order category and not to some other category?
Appreciate if you could explain in a bit more detail.
Rgds, Sandeep

Source of Supply for SNP Planned Order

Hi All,
I have a situation where we are feeding SNP planned orders using /sapapo/lcin (Time series to Order Network). When we use this transaction SNP planned orders are created in SNP but PDS is not attached to such orders. I would like to know how can I get PDSs attached to SNP planned orders created?

Harshil Desai

Thanks for reply Nandha,
PDS is active & Valid also SNP planned order indicator is set. Just to clarify that planned orders are not created by SNP. We are creating planned orders using /sapapo/lcin (Time series to Order Network) transaction.

I've got passable skills with FM8 and am porting over those
files to RH7.
While I got many "crash" notices from FM, RH pulled in all
the files. Now, I have eight questions that need answering before
correcting my problems.
Should I list them all here? Or a new topic for every
question?

Sprint's new 'iPhone For Life' plan

Here's the deal:
$100 flat fee per month for 20GB shared data PLUS:
$20/month iPhone 6 16GB
$25/month iPhone 6 64Gb or 6+ 16GB
$30/month iPhone 6 128GB or 6+ 64GB
$35/month iPhone 6+ 128GB
The kids and wife get the 16GB; I get the 128GB making my monthly $210 for 5 phones plus tax.
The best that Verizon chat could do on chat (and the chat lasted 45 mins):
$160 for 14GB plus 32.49/month for each iPhone 16GB and 44.49/month for the 128GB making my monthly $334 plus tax.
I have a pretty good job but who wouldn't want to save nearly $3000.00 in two years time?
Sprint really wants my business, does Verizon?
Her's your chance to keep me for at least 2 more years.

thanks mrhelper! fortunately Sprint is good in our area and we had Sprint before - CS chat escalated my session to a supervisor - who in turn told me that phone CS may be able to do better. Before I call and wait on perma-hold I figured I 'd throw this out there.
I really appreciate your view and response.
It's not my "view". Verizon At the corporate level is not going to match. That's just their philosophy. Furthermore they give the CS reps no power to make changes. Sure if I call my cable company and threaten to leave they'll offer me a deal that because their CS are authorized to do so.
if subscriber number start to slow or fall if churn goes up and if they can attribute that to Sprint's offering yes then they'll match. At&t is more inclined to react to things Sprint and T-Mobile do. Now if at&t reacts then like Verizon will at some point. Sprint will have had this new plan for half a quarter by the time the quarter ends next week. In about 4 week when Verizon quarterly report comes out we'll see if this new plan has had any effect.

How do I add a new category for my podcast?

I'm in "Business" now and want to add "Society and Culture". Is it possible to appear in 2 categories and if so, how do I do it? Thanks!

If your are using a podcast creation program or service it should provide a way of adding a category. In the unlikely event that you are hand-writing your feed this Apple Tech Note explains howto format the tags:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#category
Note that only the first category will appear in the iTunes Store. However, even if you add a second category searching just on the category in the iTunes Store is most unlikely to throw up your podcast. There are thousands of podcasts out there, and it would be quite impossible to display on one page the entire list for any category. What you see are 'featured' podcasts, chosen by Apple as being special; please see this Tech Note:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#getfeatured
Note that there is no way you can influence the selection other than making your podcast really special.

Can we get a new category for posts besides "Helpful" and "Solved"?

Because there should be a button for "Opposite of Helpful" to label those posts that pretend to be answers, but are really just a waste of pixels or a means for someone to get their message count up.
Most of the time the users are fantastic and helpful and at least try to help you solve a problem, even if they don't have the answer.
But then there are The Others.
And rather than indulge in a slanging match, it would be nice to just click on an "Unhelpful" button to stop some (hypothetical) poster from advising you to (hypothetically) "Get a Dell!" to solve your Mac problems.

Hello fogharty,
As Nick posted above that system of applying helpful/unhelpful to posts was tried a few years back and was found to not work as many users abused it and it did not function the way it was intended.
Once you have achieved level two status through acquiring points in the current system you will be able to report posts to the moderators to have them edited or deleted if they don't follow the Terms of Use of the forums. You also can always post your concerns about a topic/post here in this forum for the moderators to attend to. Just include a link to the offending post or topic.
One never knows though, the system might changes again but that is up to the powers that be

Difference between snp planned order and pp/ds planned order

Hi to all,
can any one please explain the difference between snp planned order and pp/ds planned order. I am relatively new to this area

The primary differences are as below.
1. The master data for SNP Planned Order is SNP PPM/PDS where the minimum duration for an operation is a day. So it is used for rough cut capacity planning.
The master data for PPDS Planned Order is a PPDS PPM/PDS where operations are down to minute and second level. Moreover sequence dependent operation planning is possible in PPDS Planned Orders. It is for detailed capacity planning.
2. SNP Planned Orders are created in SNP while PPDS Planned Orders are created in PPDS or when transferred from ERP to APO.
3. SNP Planned Order need to be converted to a PPDS Planned Order before it can be used in the Execution System (ERP) for further processing - like conversion to Production Order. Moreover the category types of the orders are different in APO (EE for SNP and AI for PPDS).
Hope this helps.

Issue in Deployment of SNP Planned orders

Hi Experts,
I am trying to deploy SNP Planned orders and I have made relevant settings in SNP2 i.e. ATP category in ATD Receipt.
When I run deployment, it creats deployment stock transfer (DEP: PReq / DEP:ConRl) based on available stock first. When I run deployment second time, then it creats deployment stock transfer( DEP: PReq / DEP:ConRl) for SNP Planned order with the same quantity of stock & not for entire quantity of SNP Planned order. Please refer below example to make it clear
Total Demand at destination location = 600
Stock at supply location = 100
After planning run, Purchase requsition of 600 is generated at destination location.
At supply location, SNP Planned order of 500 is generated considering 100 stock is available against PReqRel of 600.
When I run Deployment first time, it forms DEP: PReq / DEP:ConRl of 100 based on available quantity of 100.
After running Deployment second time it forms again DEP: PReq / DEP:ConRl of 100 and it continues to create deployment stock transfer till it completes the quantity of SNP planned order.
So all together it creates 6 deployment stock transfers instead of forming one deployment stock transfer (stock+ SNP Planned order).
There is no lot size setting for product master.
Can anyone suggest whether I need to do some settings to get one deployment order instead of 6.
Thanks & Regards,
Chetan

Hi Chetan,
It looks the SNP planned order is not being considered in the receipts quantities to be available for deploying against requirements.
Please check SNP order ATP type( it is normally EE) is included in the appropriate Categroy group
IMG >> APO > Supply Chain Planning > SNP > Basic Settings > Maintain Category Groups
Example : ATD Receipts: ATR
Typical values : AI, AJ, BF, CC,EE,EF, EI
Secondly, in the transaction /SAPAPO/MSDP_ADMIN, in the Key Figure detailed tab, ATD Receipts should have assigned the Category Group(say ATR).

Converting SNP Planned Order /Purch Req to Prod.Order/Purch.Order

Guys
What is the standard process to Convert the SNP Planned Order /Purch Req. into a Prod.Order/Purch.Order ?
Can the conversion indicator be set in APO for SNP Planned Order /Purch Req.and then transferred to R3 as Prod.Order/Purch.Order or can the convesrion of Planned Order /Purch Req to Prod.Order/Purch.Order can be done in R3 itself ?
I am not clear on how exactly this works. Would appreicate if you could provide me with the standard process and any config involved in the same such as Number Ranges and how to set the conversion indicator automatically through SNP planning runs ?
Thanks

When you set this indicator for a planned order or a purchase
requisition, the system automatically converts the order into a
Production order or purchase order after the transfer to the
connected SAP R/3 system.
The converted orders are then retransferred to the SAP APO system with a
different category; a purchase requisition with category BS-ANF becomes
a purchase order delivery schedule line with category BS-EIN.
Please check configuration setting in SPro for transfer setting to R/3.
1. Configure Transfer to OLTP Systems(SNP)
2.Maintain Global Parameters and Defaults(PPDS)
Also on R/3 side you can see it in MD04/MD07 collectively for a product . or individually on
MD13 : planned order

Deployment of SNP Planned orders

Dear Expert,
We have one scenario where there is a requirement to deploy SNP Planned orders. How much it is advisable to deploy SNP Planned orders?
What will be the impact on the dates of shipment proposals made by TLB, when SNP Planned order will get converted in Planned order and production order.
Also I observed one strange behaviour of deployment, when I try to deploy planned order by putting ATD receipts as planned order in SNP2 tab, some times it considers the planned order for deployment but many time it doesn't.
Is there any specific settings other than ATD reciepts in SNP2 tab of product location master data?
Thanks & Regards

Dear Samuel/Amol,
Thanks for your reply. Let me frame this question again
Letu2019s consider that I have maintained SNP planned orders in ATD Receipts. After running deployment, system will look for SNP Planned order as receipt element in Pull deployment horizon and create DepConRel . TLB only considers DepConRel for conversion into STO, irrespective of stock is available or not.
Now consider the situation where STO is ready with some specific Delivery & committed dates but there is no stock. When SNP Planned order will get converted into planned order and Production order, its date will change and actual stock may not be ready on that specific committed date.
So my entire intension is to know how much it is advisable to deploy SNP Planned order.
Samuel/Amol, did you get a chance to work on SNP Planned order deployment and its impact on the dates of STO?
Thanks & Regards,
Chetan

Making New Categories For Software Instruments

Garageband comes with categories like Pianos and Keyboards, guitars, Synth Leads, etc. I was wondering if there is a way to create your own categories in Garageband

Yes. You can make a folder that will show up in the GB browse window for your new category.
I have one called "Experimental Ins"
Heres the path to make the new folder.
Macintosh HD>Users>User Name>Library>Application Support>GarageBand>Instrument Library>Track Settings>Software.
Make a new folder in the "Software" folder and it will appear as a new category for instruments in the GB Browse window.
One addition to HT's post. Make the Folder first. Then when you make your new instruments you can just save them to the folder instead of moving them.

SNP planning Area Backup

Hi All,
     Currently i am working on 5.0 SCM.I have one query.
For Reporting perpose we required to take backup of SNP planning Area,so that i can save SNP planning Area data in Info cube.I would like to see data in Infocube according to Product,Location & Resource wise only. So that i can use this data for reporting perpose.
     Can we create whole data flow process for SNP Planning Area?
     We have lot of Product & resources in APO,so is it feasible to take backup of SNP planning Area?
     I want to take backup of SNP planning area only for reporting perpose,so that i can publish report according to my Product,Location & Resources.
    So kindly suggest proper solution to achive above requirement.
   Thanks in Advance!

Attaching note 428147
Summary
Symptom
When extracting data from an SNP planning area, you must take account of some special features. These are explained in this note.
Solution
      1. Data can be extracted only for existing SNP aggregates.
      Existing SNP aggregates are:
          o 9AAC (9AACTNAME)
          o 9AACPR (9AACTNAME, 9APPMNAME)
          o 9ALA (9ATRNAME)
          o 9ALO (9ALOCNO)
          o 9ALORE (9ALOCNO, 9ARNAME)
          o 9AMA (9AMATNR)
          o 9AMALA (9AMATNR, 9ATRNAME)
          o 9AMALARE (9AMATNR, 9ARNAME, 9ATRNAME)
          o 9AMALO (9ALOCNO, 9AMATNR)
          o 9AMALORE (9ALOCNO, 9AMATNR, 9ARNAME)
          o 9AMAPR (9AMATNR, 9APPMNAME)
          o 9AMARE (9AMATNR, 9ARNAME)
          o 9APR (9APPMNAME)
          o 9ARE (9ARNAME)
          o 9AREPR (9APPMNAME, 9ARNAME)
           Only the characteristic/characteristic combinations contained in these aggregates may be used in the InfoSource, transfer structure and transfer rules.The simplest way of doing this is by always generating Export-DataSources for SNP planning areas to one of the aggregates and not to the Basis planning object structure '9ASNPBAS'.A typical result of using the Basis planning object structure '9ASNPBAS' without correcting the transfer structure is that, while data is transferred to a RemoteCube, it cannot be extracted in a BasisCube.
As of APO 3.0 Support Package 17 (or note 443613), only export DataSources for aggregates can be generated in SNP planning areas they are no longer generated for the Basis planning object structure.
Furthermore, note that the navigation attributes 9ATTYPE, 9ALOCTO, and 9ALOCFROM up to APO 3.0 Support Package 17 (or note 441653) must be deleted from the transfer structure for the SNP aggregates '9AMALA' (9AMATNR/9ATRNAME) and '9AMALARE' (9AMATNR/9ATRNAME/9ARNAME). These navigation attributes can be used from the specified correction.
Due to technical restrictions the characteristics '9ATRNAME' and '9ATTYPE' can only be restricted with single values in the selection for the data extraction.The use of intervals and formatting characters (+/*) is not allowed for these characteristics.
      2. For an SNP aggregate, only the key figures assigned to it can be extracted. You can see which key figures are assigned to an aggregate in transaction /SAPAPO/MSDP_ADMIN on the Key figure assignment tab of the relevant planning area. As of APO 3.0 Support Package 17 (or note 439366), only the key figures assigned to this aggregate are taken into account when an export DataSource is being generated for aggregates.
      3. During the definition of queries, the following restrictions apply:
           In the case of queries for the aggregate '9AMALA', certain key figures can only ever be extracted with another key figure.The key figure combinations that can only be extracted together are:
          o (9AFSHIP, 9ADMDDF, 9ADMDDFVMI)
          o (9AFSHIPLP, 9ADMDDFLP)
          o (9AFSHIPVMI, 9ADMDDFVMI)
          o (9APSHIP, 9ADMDDI, 9ADMDDIVMI)
          o (9APSHIPLP, 9ADMDDILP)
          o (9APSHIPVMI, 9ADMDDIVMI)
          o (9ATSHIP, 9ADMDDT, 9ADMDDTVMI)
          o (9ATSHIPVMI, 9ADMDDTVMI)

How to generate SNP planned order with different category

Our SNP system receives Forecast and Salse Order from DP system.
and we'd like to generate SNP planned order with different category..for example, 'AI' for Forecast Demand and 'AL' for Sales Order..
currently, If we run CTM, system generate SNP planned order with the
same category 'AI'..
another system(APS) in Our company receives planned order from SNP
and they want to receive planned order for forecast and planned order for sales order seperately..

It is not directly achievable however can be done through BADIs and two CTM profile. I am assuming that sales orders are planned ahead of Forecast demands. So have two CTM profiles - one for Sales Orders (regenerative mode) and the other for Forecast Demands (net change mode). You may have to invoke two BADIs in the first run for Sales Orders - one that changes master data by putting a temperory Forecast Horizon in SNP2 tab (BADI /sapapo/ctm_matloc). The other BADI (BADI /sapapo/ctm_orders) changes the ATP category just before saving. in the second run though you just need to run the latter BADI by saving it in the ATP category required. BADIs can be invoked based on CTM profiles used.

Element Entry not showing up for new option in a plan after Open Enrollment

I had to add a new option in a plan. I have defined the option, added it to the plan. I setup 2 standard rates for this option; one non-tax and the other taxable. This is an odd example because 1 certain employee falls under Group Health Employee plus Spousal Equivalent Plus Family. Last year the employee had Group Health Employee plus Spousal Equivalent but he still is not married and now has a domestic partner child. So they have asked me to create this option in the Group Health plan. Everything works fine when i choose the new option while the open life event is in started status and i can designee the spousal equivalent and the domestic partner child. But when i close the open life event and go to people and maintain and go to assignment to view the entries this employee has Group Health EE and Group Health EE Taxable still there with an end date of 1Jan08 and when i day track to 2Jan08 he does not have this entries there? What am i missing here? Also, when selecting the option in benefits service center if you scroll to the right there are no rates defined for this option.....but under standard rates i have defined a specific rate to this option and correctly filled out the level, compensation object, activity type, tax type, usage, element, input value and assignment to use. Any information would be greatly appreciated!!!!

I've discovered that the problem is that there is no new file for the new blog entry. The other blog entry was published to the site folder before I was online but now when I hit the publish button it goes straight to uploading to my site, and the new entry doesn't show up as it has no file in the folder. How can I get it to publish to the folder before it uploads?
