Diff. between contract cash flow starting date&the 1st posting date

gusy , please if some 1 know where can i post the real estate threads don't hesitate 2 send me the link cuz i can't find it yet ...
i would like to ask also about the diffrence between contract cash flow starting date and the 1st posting date of the contract?? isn't it necessary for those 2 dates to be identical ?? because when i receive or realize cash from that contract i've to post it ..

Hi,
the difference is quite easy to explain.
contract cash flow starting date is the date sap uses when generating the cash flow, this is used if you have contracts in sap that were created before you using sap and where you would want to see the cash flow for information reasons.
The 1st posting date of the contract is actually the date beginning of which sap will be posting the conditions.
Say your cash flow starting date is 01 January 2007 and your 1st posting date is 01. july 2007, yor cashflow will show you what would have been posted, if the contract had been handeled in sap from january through june, starting in july, it shows what is to be and what actually has been posted.
As to your question regarding a sap re-fx forum, please use your search, we are still trying to get enough people interested and there is a thread where you can sign up. Until then, feel free to post your questions in the Financials forum.

Download of incorrect start date using Open PS.

When project is downloaded from R/3 PS to MS Projects, and 'Download actuals' has been set in 'Object type' settings , incorrect start date gets downloaded everytime any project is downloaded.( In this case 30 Nov 99 ).
Have already checked the start date in Project definition in R/3 PS and also the Project information in MS Projects. The source of the incorrect start date remains unknown.

Hi Nidhi
In addition to my earlier reply, pl also check the following:
1. Time Settings
Microsoft Project only supports the following ISO time units: minutes, hours, days, weeks, and as of Microsoft Project 2000, months. If you use other time units in your SAP R/3 projects, you must define conversion factors.
2. .Dates
The project information in Microsoft Project is updated with the information in the project definition in SAP R/3. If the start date is not available in the SAP R/3 project definition, then the start date in Microsoft Project is the start date of the task that gets started first. If the finish date is not available in the SAP R/3 project definition, the finish date is the finish date of the task that gets completed last in Microsoft Project.
<b>If any task starts before the project start date, the project start date is pushed back to the start date of the task that begins first.</b>
<b>If any task ends after the project end date, the project end date is pushed forwards to the end date of the task that ends last.</b>
Reason for difference in dates could be above cited and hope this solve ur problem.
Enjoy SAP.....

Incorrect start dates in Application Server Enterprise Manager

I have an odd issue when I look in my Oracle application server control webpage my start up dates are incorrect in the internet browser (IE7 or Firefox). All components are restarted nightly and uptimes on server show correctly through opmnctl status -l. Anyone else experienced this issue? We have tried multiple PCs and same thing.

Have you check the date, time setting in your linux, as well the Timezone used?

Can someone explain why the system called the order with a starting date in the previuos month , that is , 13.09.2009.
And how to rectify it to make it current date for the next call object?

When ever enter the date start date up to next year same date between the days divided into 8 parts

when ever enter the date start date up to next year same date between the days divided into 8 parts
Q1.1 (YYYY) = 1st half of Quarter 1 for year YYYY
Q1.2 (YYYY) = 2nd half of Quarter1 for year YYYY
Q2.1 (YYYY) = 1st half of Quarter 2 for year YYYY
Q2.2 (YYYY) = 2nd half of Quarter 2 for year YYYY
Q3.1 (YYYY) = 1st half of Quarter 3 for year YYYY
Q3.2 (YYYY) = 2nd half of QuarterQ3 for year YYYY
Q4.1 (YYYY) = 1st half of Quarter 4 for year YYYY
Q4.2 (YYYY) = 2nd half of Quarter 4 for year YYYY
Here YYYY depicts the year.
e.g. Q1.2 (2014) depicts the 2nd half of Quarter 1 for year 2014.
The description of these values are explained below.
The table below provides the description about each value:
Quarter     Quarter Range      Start Date
Q1.1      1 Jan - 15 Feb         1st Jan
Q1.2      16 Feb-31 Mar         16th Feb
Q2.1      1 Apr- 15 May          1st Apr
Q2.2      16 May-30 June       16th May
Q3.1      1 Jul-15 Aug             1th Jul
Q3.2      16 Aug -30 Sep       16th Aug
Q4.1      1 Oct -15 Nov           1st Oct
Q4.2      16 Nov – 31 Dec      16th Nov
The dropdown values in time window needs to be updated as per date entered by the user in the Audit Plan start date and
should display the next four Quarter (each divided in 2 half i.e. Eight values ) along with the year from the selected Audit plan start date.
for eg. If the Plan start date is given as August 10 2013 then the Time window will display the following options:
Q3.2 (2013)
Q 4.1 (2013)
Q 4.2 (2013)
Q 1.1 (2014)
Q1.2 (2014)
Q2.1 (2014)
Q 2.2 (2014)
Q 3.1 (2014)
You can refer to the Table above and look that 10 Aug 2013 falls under the Q3.1 so Time window will display the next next 8 half Quarters ( Total 4 Quarter) till Q 3.1 for the year 2014.

Hello,

Q 1.2 (2014)
Q 2.1 (2014)
Q 2.2 (2014)
Q 3.1 (2014)
half_quarters generates the start dates of every half of a quarter, starting with the begin of the first quarter that contains the sample date.
The next step is to order the dates and to select only those after the sample date.
The last part formats the output and orders the data.

Enrollment - Coverage Start Date issue

Hi All,
I am facing an issue in Selfservice, where an employee can login to SSHR to insert a life event, process it and make Enrollments.
There is one Life Event - Gain Dependent - Child, when an employee adds a dependent - Child he needs to insert the life event and on Processing it he can makes the enrollments and then save them.
On doing so the Coverage Start Date for the Benefits is coming up as Today's date (assuming if the employee makes enrollments Today).
But keeping the same setup if we Process the Life Event and make Enrollments from Oracle Forms the Coverage Start Date is coming up as 1st of the current Month, which is the actual date that should be coming up as per the Fast Formula logic.
Due to the wrong Coverage Start Date, Rate Start is also getting wrongly popualted and hence employees are losing the Dollars...
Is there any way by which this can be fixed or this is an issue with Selfservice that the what the Logic FF has cannot be used in selfservice.
Anyone having any idea on this, please reply ASAP as this is the Show Stopper issue.
Thanks
Shivam.

Hi Shivam,
You have mentioned previously that Ct. is triggering the Gain Dep. LE by adding a new dependent child. This means that the person already had a life event in started status which enabled the Family Member page and allowed the user to add a dependent.
If so, then there might be a Collapsing Logic defined between the Current LE[Say New Hire or Open] and the Gain Dependent. [I have seen this setup with most of the Ct.'s].
So, there is a good chance that instead of the Gain Dependent, the Current LE will be reprocessed and hence is taking the setup of Current LE instead of GD.
You can confirm the LE processed in the Current Benefits page.

Aneesh N

Incorrect Coverage Start Dates

During Open Enrollment, there was an error in our set ups for our STD plan and now several employees have incorrect coverage start dates and incorrect original enrollment dates for the plan. There are over 1000 employees affected by this error so manually overriding the dates isn't a popular option to fix this problem. Is there an API that might be useful for correcting these dates ? Any other thoughts ?
Thanks in advance for your help !
Jeff

Hi
You can review the below Metalink Note -

but how to change the start date of a new contract item?
Please let me know if any body is aware of this?

PP DataSource 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL - Incorrect extraction of latest scheduled start dates (SSAVD)

Hi experts,
we use the SAP Business Content Standard DataSource 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL "Work Center View PP" and need the latest scheduled start date each production order operation.
In the production order operation overview (t/code CO03) on the ERP-side we have the expected latest scheduled start (Source AFVGD-SSAVD)
But in the DataSource 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL (PSA-Table) we become the incorrect latest scheduled start dates (DataSource field SSAVD)
Any ideas or experiences why the latest scheduled start date not up-to-date?
Many thanks and best regards,
Michael

Hi,
I have tested the scenario again...
At the header level of test production order 1000381 I have changed the basic dates (Start/End) from 22.04.2014 to 24.04.2014.
As a result the start dates at operation level also changed...
After the above changes I have extracted the Data. The Delta-Queue (RSA7) for the relevant DataSource 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL looks nearly good.
For the both operations 20 and 30 the delta update for the field "Latest start date" (SSAV) works correct. But the delta update for the first operation "10" not processed.
Is it possible that the delta update only works for specific system status? Or any other ideas?
Many thanks and best regards,
Michael

Cash flow start date and first posting date in REFX-RECN contract

Hi,
While reviewing old contracts, I have noticed that in contracts where first posting date is mentioned, the cash flow start date is not editable in contract change screen. In contracts where first posting date is not mentioned, the cash flow start date is editable in the change screen.
Is this standard system behaviour? Because i have read in the forum that cash flow start date is not editable after first posting of the conditions.
I tried to change the field status of cash flow start date through RECACUST, but despite keeping the field status as display, the cash flow start date remains editable.
Please help on how to make the field status not editable.
sadhana

Hi Sidhharth,
Thanks a lot for your immediate reply.
I still have one query. You have written that
Where First posting date is not updated it indicates that posting of the contract is yet to be done,not a single posting has been performed hence Cashflow date is editable.
This means first posting date is always filled up after condition is posted. but in our system i find that the date is blank and greyed out even after the 1st posting.
Could it be due to having several conditions in the contract - some with one time posting, some with monthly posting? eg.most of our contracts have atleast two contions - one for deposit which is one time payment, one for rent. the first posting date is updated in individual condition for rent in conditions tab but first posting date in terms tab is blank. But even in single condition contracts, the first posting date is not getting updated in term tab (the field gets greyout out once contract is activated)
Thanks once again.
Sadhana.

Updating start date and end date at header level for a contract

As per the requirement I have to create a contract and assign the start date and end date to the contract.
I am using BAPI_CONTRACT_CREATEFROMDATA for creating a contract. I am assigning value for start date and end date for header data of contract in fields
-CT_VALID_F and CT_VALID_T of CONTRACT_HEADER_IN import parameter and also setting the corresponding indicator in CONTRACT_HEADER_INX parameter.
The BAPI executes successfully and does not return any error but when I check the start date and end date for contract in va43 the values are not assigned.
I also want to update the start date and end date for contract in other case for which I am using BAPI_CUSTOMERCONTRACT_CHANGE and passing date values to the same fields as those create but it give me an error while executing. The error is as follows:
Field 'GUEEN' cannot be changed, VBAKKOM 2000000162 ready for input.
Can anyone suggest what can be done for update the date values?
Thanks in advance.
Komal

So are we... The BAPI BAPI_CONTRACT_CREATE has the following importing parameters:
HEADER     TYPE     BAPIMEOUTHEADER
HEADERX     TYPE     BAPIMEOUTHEADERX
VENDOR_ADDRESS     TYPE     BAPIMEOUTADDRVENDOR
TESTRUN     TYPE     BAPIFLAG-BAPIFLAG
TECHNICAL_DATA     TYPE     BAPIMEOUTTECH
Change the HEADER and HEADERX parameters as I have indicated in my first post.
Regards,
John.
