OBAW Schema / ETL Mappings for Project Accounting

Hello - We have done our Oracle Financial Analytics deployment using OBAW / Oracle Apps 7.9.5 and wanted to see how i can get more information about the Project Accounting module.
Anyone can share information about PA (Project Accounting)? It will help tremendeously if someone will share the spreadsheet "BI Apps 7.9.5 - ETL Data Lineage" specifically for Project Accounting module. Or, schema or ETL information.
Regards,

Project accounting was released in 7.9.6 and is not present in 7.9.5.x
The Data lineage document for 7.9.6 is available in Metalink3

ETL load for Project Analytics has many Errors

Shyam
I created new thread for the ETL load error we are having. Our ETL loaded with the followign status
Total Number of Tasks 302
Number of Succesful Tasks 82
Number of Failed Tasks 214
I went to the failed tasks at the bottom and looked at the log files and the target tables. For many of them there dont seem to be any problem.
For example the task SDE_ORA_Project had the status as Failed. When I clicked Details for the line , it said
Truncate table W_PROJECT_DS - Completed
SDE_ORA_Project - Completed
Analyze W_PROJECT_DS - Failed
And I opened the log file ORA_R12.DATAWAREHOUSE.SDE_ORAR12_Adaptor.SDE_ORA_Project.log under folder SessLog. I just took few lines to show you the status
Read [178] rows, read [0] error rows for source table [mplt_SA_ORA_Project.LKP_PROJ_CUST{{DSQ}}]
Read [326] rows, read [0] error rows for source table [HR_ALL_ORGANIZATION_UNITS]
Read [3] rows, read [0] error rows for source table [mplt_SA_ORA_Project.LKP_PROJECT_TYPE_CLASS_CODE{{DSQ}}]
Read [2] rows, read [0] error rows for source table [mplt_SA_ORA_Project.LKP_PROJECT_FUNDING_LEVEL_CODE{{DSQ}}]
Read [3] rows, read [0] error rows for source table [mplt_SA_ORA_Project.LKP_PROJECT_SECURITY_LEVEL{{DSQ}}]
The session completed with [0] row transformation errors.
Then i went to the target table W_PROJECT_DS and it had 326 records. THis is the same for many of the failed ones. Remember , our first load failed due to accidental shutdown of the server. This is the second run after I did "Reset Data Sources"
So the otehr problem is our dashboad still shows sample data ( 1.Overview,2.Rankers&Toppers,3.History&Benching,4.Tiering&Distribution). Some of the Project Ananlytics loaded. So i dont know why it did not change. We are using Administrator user. SHould we use a different user.
Thanks

Some detail I found in the log file. Many of the log files had warnign meessage

Workgroup Manager doesn't create home directories for OD accounts

I'm having an issue where home directories aren't created for OD accounts. My setup is as follows, the home directories are stored on the OD Master (the only Apple/OD/AD server on the network), and the home directory paths are filled as afp://192.168.1.254/Customers, fakeuser, /Users/Customers/fakeuser
This same pathing scheme works fine for local accounts, however for OD, clicking Create Home Directory and saving the account does nothing (no errors, nor folders created). If I ftp into said account, I wind up being directed to /Users (definitely not the expected behaviour)
I am deploying a web based upload system that I want to authenticate against OD users so as to share home folders and permissions with the ftp server, once I have this figured out I will be migrating a bunch of accounts to OD from local.

In addition to potential DNS issues, it sounds like you may be using the wrong procedure to define the users' home directories. You should never have to specify the paths manually; instead, define the share point ("Customers" in your case) to be automounted, and then it should automatically show up in the list of available home folder locations, with all the necessary paths predefined. Here's the full procedure:
1. Run Server Admin, and select: the server name in the sidebar -> File Sharing in the toolbar -> Volumes & Browse under that -> navigate to the /Customers folder in the column view.
2. Make sure the folder is being shared (with it selected, you should see an "Unshare" button near the top right of the window); if not share it with the Share Button (then Save the change).
3. Select the Share Point tab under the file browser (NOT the one above it), and select the Enable Automount checkbox. A dialog will open asking for the automount details; make sure the Directory is set to /LADPv3/127.0.0.1, Protocol to AFP, and Use for is User home folders and group folders. OK the dialog, and be sure to click Save to make the change take effect.
4. Run Workgroup Manager, and select Accounts in the toolbar -> Users (single person icon) tab under that -> some user account(s) you want to configure under that -> Home tab on the right.
5. Select (None) from the location list and click Save (this wipes out any current setting, so we can rebuild it correctly).
6. The Customers share point should be in the list of available locations (due to being configured for automount); select it, then click Create Home Now, and finally Save.

Oracle BI APPS ETL mappings issue

Hi Experts,
I am trying to understand the mappings and the use of BI APPS pre build RPD. I have got the different modules which are the supplychain mgmt etc. But I want to check the etl mappings for the same. Can anyone please suggest me where to find the ETL mappings for these prebuild mappings so that I can check how the data is flown to the RPD.
Thanks in advance.
Satyabrat

You can use the Informatica PowerCenter client to look at the mappings one by one in the GUI designer tool

a good reference is the data lineage spreadsheet on metalink 3 note 735950.1 "BI Apps 7.9.5 - ETL Data Lineage v1.xls"

Account determination for project stock delivery (for movement type 281Q)

Hello
We are trying to carry out delivery for project stock (CNS0) using movement type 281Q.
We notice that there is no account modifier availalbe for this scenario resulting in error during PGI. However, we can do PGI after changing the config of account determination without account modifier.
Since working without an account modifier is not acceptable for various business reasons, we must have an account modifier defined. We are wondering why SAP has not provided a standard solution for dealing with project stock delivery.
Can any one please suggest how to deal this situation.
Thanks and warm regards,
Jagadeeesh

We have business requirement as stated below:
We need to procure materials for specific Projects but also want to track the stock for the Project by value in the invnetory. In other words, the encumbrance of the procurement needs to take place against the Project but we want to be able to take it into inventory as a valuated stock and issue to the WBS whenever it is required.
Is this possible? What we know is that as soon as we give reference of the WBS for the Procurement, it gets expensed to the Project and we cannot value manage in inventory.
The reason for this requirement is there is a long time between when the item is procured and when it is used for the project. Till such time we have to track the Project items in the inventory as any other stock but its still tagged for the project and encumbrance would need to have happened
Any ideas on how to deal with this will be appreciated
Thanks

Pricing Schema for Project System

Dear Sappers,
I'm configuring Pricing Schema for Project System(PS) module.
The requirement is, the schema will be in such a way that it supports both excise, CST, VAT and service tax.
In PS module the user raises a Purchase Order having procurement of material as well as taking service from Vendor.For this in PO he will maintain both material as well as service.
I'm configuring the Pricing schema in MM - Purchasing - Condition.
My question is for materials procurement, everything is working fine.But for service respect to activity number I want to maintain service tax and other cess in condition record.
But to maintain service tax & other cess for activity number, I want the access sequence of sevice to be in Purchasing.I've taken the standard table for Plant, Vendor, Purchase Organinzation and activity number combination from External Service management and making a new access sequence in MM - Purchasing.All fields are coming but for Activity number, it not taking the document structure and showing error.
How to overcome this??
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Warm Regards
PKB

Hi Pankaj,
Thanks for your suggestions.
As per you reply, the access sequence is already maintain in External Service Management.But I want to bring the same combination Plant, Vendor, Purchase Organizartion and Activity number that is Table 97 to MM - Purchasing - Conditions- Access Sequence.
I've tried to do it, but when I'm creating in MM - Purchasing, all document structure is copying except activity number.What I analyse the error is due to application area.Activity number is MS (External Service Management) area but i'm trying to do in M(Purchasing)
Even though when I enter manually MS for the access sequence system is not taking.
Suggest me.
Warm Regards
PKB

i checked why it is working for PO account generator.
i put one custom package.
I'm taking project_id .
it is not reading it.
why it is not working for other user.
can you check and conform me.

sasi

Hi Asif,
Thanks for the reply.
I referred the links mentioned by you, but couldn't find anything relevant to re-triggering of Account Generator workflow.
The customizations I did are working fine and is triggering the workflow. But my Question is, what are the circumstances that re-trigger the Account Generator for a given Purchase Order.
To elaborate, say for instance I have created a PO for PO category 'Electrical Equipments' furnishing all other details and charge account is generated for this category, and the PO is saved. Now I come back and change the PO category to 'Medical Equipments' for the same PO, retaining all the other info same.
So here, will the Account generator be re-triggered to generate different charge account?
Kindly suggest.
Thanks,
Nivedana

Account Generator for Projects

I need to customize Account Generator for Documents (PO,REQ & Invoice) which are linked to Projects.
So we zeroed in on below Workflows
1. PO Account Generator
2. PO Requisition Account Generator
3. Project Supplier Invoice Account Generation
For 1, PO Account Generator, we found the node under Process "Generate Default Charge Account" where it's checking for Destination Type, & if it's Expense then it's checking if PO is Project Based. Now my question is
Q1.1 --> Can PO be of Inventory or Shop floor & still have Project associated with it. If yes, then how can we do the customization of Charge account for PO's based on Project.
For 2,we found the node "Build Expense Project Charge Account" under Process "Build Expense Charge Account".
Q2.1 --> Is it where we need to Put the customization for Project related requisitions. Again this process is for Destination Type of Expense. So again same question under 1.1 will answer the second part of question for PO Requisition Account Generator
For 3, as of now I am very much confused on this workflow where to put the customization for Project related Invoices.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks Much
Sachin

We were able to finally confirm that we are doing the customization on right node.
Now we are stuck as we are being asked that we only need to call standard packages for customization, now if Account is setup as Lookup Set on Oracle Projects, then we have found that by calling PA_ACC_GEN_WF_PKG.PA_SEG_LOOKUP_SET_VALUE we'll be able to derive the value for the segment. But what will happen to Rules & Functions defined in Oracle Projects. How they can play the role for customizing Account Generator.
Any help. Let me know if I can explain in more detail.
Thanks

Scheme of Entries for vendor payment under EBS system

Hello Friends,
I am setting below the scheme of entries as I think is appropriate for making a vendor payment. The scenario is that we will make a payment to the vendor where the payment will be released through BACS (we are working for a UK based client). After the payment run is made the payment is not actually made for some reasons and are returned. Then we make the payment again and this time the payment run goes through smoothly.
I would request you to please let me know if I am wrong in the scheme of entries and if yes, what would be the proper scheme.
1.
When Invoice is raised (FB60)
GR/IR a/c        Dr        100
VAT a/c          Dr          20
    To Vendor a/c Cr            120
At this point there is one open item that is created in the vendor account.
2.
When payment run is made (F110)
Vendor a/c                          Dr              120
      To Unclear BACS a/c     Cr                     120
At this point the entries in the vendor account are cleared by entry no 1 and 2 and there are no open items.
3.
When Bank returns the payment as unsuccessful and we clear the entry (F-03)
Return BACS a/c             Dr          120
    To Vendor A/c             Cr                     120
At this point there is one open item that is created in the vendor account
4.
When payment is once more made and this time successfully
Vendor a/c                       Dr             120
   To Unclear BACS a/c    Cr                       120
At this point entries 3 and 4 clears the open items in the vendor account and there remains no other open items.
Can someone please confirm if the sequence is correct or is there an additional step involved for resetting of any document after entry 2 when the payment run fails?
Regards,
Suvarghya Dutta

Hello,
When you have done step 2, immediately you will not come to know that your cheque is failed, only when you receive the bank statement.
In that case I would not expect you to post to a different account "Return BACS a/c". I do not see any reason for this account. I would expect you to debit to the same account "Unclear BACS a/c", which has been used in order to make the payment.
If you are using a different account for reversal, then you have to take two accounts for reconciliation purpose.
MIRO
GRIR Account Dr
To Vendor Account
F110
Vendor Account Dr
To Bank Sub-account (In your case Unclear BACS a/c)
FF67 or FF.5
If successfully paid
Bank Sub Account Dr
To Bank Main Account
If returned or unsuccessful (*)
Bank Sub Account Dr
To Vendor Account
If you are posting the entry (*) through bank statement, then no need to use FBRA.
Use FBRA immediately once you run F110 and you know that you have paid the vendor erronously. But once it reached bank and bank has issued bank statement, I would not expect you to run FBRA, but I would like to use FF67 process.
Regards,
Ravi

Opening Balances for Project Costing in R12

Hi All,
What are the Open transactions should be migrated as Opening Balance in Project Costing (R12) for Projects and Tasks. Here at client place cost will come from Inv, PO, AP and OTL to Project costing (R12). Can you please explain in detail (Opening Balances & Historical Cost - How to Migrate)?
Waiting for replies...

Hi
Usually on implementation of Projects, people are migrating total historical costs per project.
Depend on your current system, you may convert the historical data summarized by project, task, expenditure organization and expenditure type. There is an option to summarize costs into the latest period, just before starting the future transactions import into Projects. Otherwise, consider summarizing cost data per period, per quarter or per year.
The summarized data may be loaded as miscellaneous expenditures into Projects.
Be aware that for converted expenditures you should setup a Transaction Source which is costed and accounted.

Moving avergae price updation in material master for project stock

Dear All,
My query is pertaining to updation of MAP( moving average price) for project specific procurement ( as project stock) for valuated project stock.
As definelty the cost of procurement gets consumed by project .but i want to know does the project stock procurement still updates the moving avergae price or not.
Ex:-Suppose MAP in material master is 10 USD ( with qty 1)and i procure the same material ( qty 1)for project with account assignment Q for 9 USD . now will the MAP in material master becomes 9.5 USD or it remains 10 usd.?
Please reply urgently
Regards
Amit

Hi Amit,
If your Project Stock is valuated, then, the valuation data for it is stored in a different table: QBEW.
The normal, anonymus warehouse stock (the unrestricted use stock which is not assigned to any project or to any sales order) has its valuation data stored in MBEW.
The "Accounting 1" view in the Material Master MM03 ONLY displays the data of MBEW.
In the material master you will never see the valuation data of the valuated project stock (table QBEW) or the valuated sales order stock (valuation indicator "M" - table EBEW).
The valuation data for the tables QBEW and EBEW can be seen in SE16 or in the transaction MBBS.
Also note that these valuated special stocks are managed independently of the normal stock. If, for example, you change the Moving Average Price of your normal stock in MBEW, this will not have any influence on your project stock, as the data is under a totally diferent table QBEW.
I hope this helps you,
Esther.

COGS Value showing as null for Projects

Hi All,
We have a report called Revenue Report. In this report we track the revenue and cogs value for both OM orders and Projects. We are able to see th cogs value for OM order(i.e. sales order)but not for projects. We are using OOTB out of box mapping(i.e.SDE_ORA_GLCOGS) for populating cogs value.So we have approached oracle team to address this issue. Please find the below reply from Oracle. Can somebody help me how to calculate COGS value for projects.
BIApps 7.9.6.x do not support the integration of Project and COGS out of the box. If you have cogs trx from Projects and would like to extract these trx, you can customize the SDE sql.
[OOTB sql in SDE_ORA_GLCOGS]
WHERE
MMT.TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID IN (15, 33, 10008) AND
(MMT.TRANSACTION_ACTION_ID,MTA.ACCOUNTING_LINE_TYPE ) IN
((27, 2), (1, 36), (36, 35))
MMT : MTL_MATERIAL_TRANSACTIONS
MTA : MTL_TRANSACTION_ACCOUNTS
15 = RMA Receipt (Return Material Authorization)
33 = Sales order issue (Ship Confirm external Sales Order)
10008 = COGS Recognition
(27, 2) = (Receipt into stores, Account)
(1, 36) = (Issue from stores, Deferred Cost of Goods Sold)
(36, 35) = (COGS Recognition, Cost of Goods Sold)
These are OOTB default values to extract the cogs trx for sales order etc. These are configurable. You can add/modify these values as needed. You can check the OLTP MTL module for the meaning of each values

Please do not post duplicates -- COGS Value showing up as null Projects

How to use Value Mappings for simple translations?

Hello,
I want to use Value Mappings for simple translations in mappings, e.g. from IDoc to Inhouse structures.
For example unit of quantity:
IDOC    -->    INHOUSE
PCE               P
ABC               A
How can I use Value Mapping for this? What should be used as Agency, what should be used for Scheme? What about groups? I tried the following: I created a new Value Mapping in Integration Directory:
- Source Agency: DELVRY05
- Source Scheme: MENEE (IDoc field name)
- Target Acency: INHOUSE_DESADV (Name of structure)
- Target scheme: UNIT (Name of field)
Then, in the table, I added several lines for translating PCE to P and ABC to A and so on. But I have to define a group name for each line. I used INHOUSE. But than I get one INHOUSE group for each line.
This seems very complicated for simple translations from A to B. I don't want to use FixValue in Message mappings.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Christoph

Hello,
@pavan kumar: Thanks, but I know all Blogs about Value Mappings. That does not help me. And I refer to PI 7.1.
Lets get it very simple: I want to have exactly the same functionality of "FixValues" as ValueMappings. In 7.1, I need to define a Group for every row / line in the conversion table (e.g. for units of measurement conversion between IDoc and FlatFile). That does not make sense for me, as the Group is always the same, e.g. "Unit of measurement". So I will get dozens of same groups called "Unit of measurement".
I don't really understand the concept of Groups. Maybe this is just not appropiate for my intenses? Maybe the Group has to be defined as one specific value of Unit of measurement, e.g. "pieces"?
