Oracle Demand Planning - No data available to view in worksheets sheets.

Hi,
We are facing issues with demand planning, the data is not coming into the worksheets,
Do we have to do certain setups in the worksheets so that the data will appear?
Here is the demand plan log.

Hi user602232,
the batch logfile does not reveal any issues. It would be helpful to get more details:
1. what kind of data does not appear in the worksheets? Level values etc?
2. some more details about the demand plan setup and demand plan assignments would help.
The first things I would check:
a) was data collection successful
b) check the demand planner assignments
regards,
David.

Can i access the Oracle Demand Planning Cubes using the AWM?

Hi All,
Is it possible to access the Oracle Demand planning data which is stored as Express server using the Analytic workspace manager?
Any information regarding this is really appreciated.

Abdul Hafeez,
Is ODP using Express Server or Oracle OLAP Analytical workspaces?
If Express Server is being used by ODP, then you cannot create sql views for OBIEE.
If Oracle database is being used for ODP data, then it is storing the data in Analytical workspaces. In that case, you can manually create OLAP views using OLAP_TABLE function. To do that, you will first have to know all the required structures inside the Analytical workspaces. Without that knowledge, you will not know what olap structures to "expose" in the OLAP views.
You can read about OLAP_TABLE function from Oracle 10g documentation http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/olap.102/b14350/olap_table.htm
If you are using 9i database for ODP, then read about OLAP_TABLE function from 9i documentation http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/olap.920/a95295/olap_tab.htm

Oracle Demand Planning or Demantra?

It seems fairly obvious that if you are starting out an implementation (or even part way through), you would cease implementing Oracle Demand Planning (ODP) and implement Demantra. I have read that all development work was ceased on ODP (even though some new features have been implemented in ODP R12). Further, I have read that there is no simple migration path from ODP to Demantra (due to the very different data structures).
My questions:
1. Do you agree with my comment about ceasing the implementation of ODP and resuming with ODP, and if not, why not?
2. Is there any known migration path between the two products that is supported by Oracle or is a completely new implementation needed?
3. What are the comparative costs of the two products?
4. What are the technology stack requirements of the two products? (particulary of Demantra).
Thanks, as always.

with regards to point 1... demantra is a better tool; it will create better forecast numbers and will provide a much more sophisticated end user experience. however the answer to your question is not always an obvious one.
firstly lets talk about finance and schedule. ceasing an implementation that is costing a large sum of money in favour of a newer product may not be the right course of action. budget alarm bells will start ringing since the delivery schedule will now be off the chart and the costs will only go up. is the implementation required to fix legacy system and data problems? if so there will be groans from the people that need the forecast numbers when they hear that the current inaccuracy will continue because some fabled "even better numbers" will be available somewhat later than promised.
what about stability? odp has it's fair share of problems but it is still much more robust than oracle demantra and depending on factors such as company size, structure, product life-cycle, forecast horizon and methodology demantra may not even provide a better solution. an r12 implementation of odp would survive for a number of years before requiring an upgrade and by then newer and better versions of oracle demantra will be available. there are a lot of customers still using odp and oracle will continue to support them.
don't forget the bigger picture and plan for the future. planning and forecasting solutions need to be flexible - whatever solution you use you should expect that it will need to evolve and part of that evolution should be a product migration. if the planners that are expected to use the new tools and process are not yet skilled at forecasting (maybe they just manipulate numbers in excel based upon weekly meetings?) then the basic approach to skills development might be as follows: start simple, then develop a more sophisticated approach and finally create a sophisticated forecasting solution (this pathway could take years). if you don't yet know the medium or advanced strategy then how can you possibly know which tool is best suited? start simple with odp knowing that in two years when you will want to move to a more advanced forecasting approach your users will understand what they want. at that point you can decide whether to stick or twist.
as for the other questions: 2 is a no. 3 & 4: don't know (sorry)
good luck and let us know what you decide.

APO Demand plan monthly data is not assigned correctly after replication to HANA

Hi All,
We are replicating the APO live-cache toHANA using a APO Data Replication Model. Replication of Planning Data - SAP HANA Live for SAP SCM -
Replication of the Planning Book to HANA is working for weekly data. Weeks in HANA reconcile correctly back to the APO Planning Book. However months are not being correctly assigned to the data. All data for each week is being assigned to only one month in HANA.
When tested by extraction to a BW cube/DSO first then DSO replicated to HANA the data is correctly assigned to months and weeks. There is something different which is happening in the replication of the APO Replication Model that is not correctly assigning the months.
Has anyone had this problem before?
Thanks,
Steve.

Reading that, it has not improved and its May 2014.

Demand Planning: How to create a forecast in ODP

Our client is using Oracle Financials OM etc however it currently uses a separate tool for forecasting. We are planning to start forecasting in Oracle Demand Planning.
Following is the simplified calculation for forecasting, how can this be done in ODP:
Calculation is done for item type, 2 calculations are done for every month (X and Y changes every month):
JAN:
1. A= X% of Jan sales
2. B= Y% of last year sales
The forecast should pick greatest number among A and B (it should not pick A+B).
Is this possible in ODP, how to setup the forecast and its calculations.
Thanks in advance.

You could do this in ODP using the absolute value function and some formula measures.
I assume you are familiar with formula measures in ODP and hence I will focus only on the math behind the formula measures. I am ignoring the percentage aspect that can be easily achieved using formula measure capabilities.
The result set that you want is the following:
if X > Y return X else Y
Formula measure 1 = FM1 = X + Y
Formula measure 2 = FM2 = = |X - Y| (absolute value)
Formula measure 3 = (FM1 + FM2) / 2
How does this work?
|X - Y|
returns Y - X if Y > X
returns X - Y if X > Y
if X > Y then the result is
(X + Y + X - Y)/2 = X
if X < Y, then the result is
(X + Y + Y - X)/2 = Y
This will give you the results you want.
Note: the formula measures apply at all levels of the hierarchy and is not the aggregation from the lowest levels.
Please be careful and validate this solution against your total set of requirements.

Not able to Upload data in Demand Planning data view

Hi
I am trying to upload a csv file in to Demand planning interactive planning through " Upload Data " functionality
First I exported data from interactive planning , updated some data in file and again trying to upload same file.
I am getting following error
File cannot be uploaded
Message no. /SAPAPO/SDP_UPLOAD009
Diagnosis
File has no technical information or incorrect technical information.
Procedure
Save the file again locally. Make sure that the file has the technical information.
Could u please suggest what needs to be done
Thanks and regards,
Nitin Lavhe

Hello,
For using the upload data functionality from interactive planning grid, you need to first download the data. While downloading the data, please check the check box for "Prepare the file for upload at later time", and then select the option of putting the technical setting into the file or into the system. Either way is okay. Then try uploading the same file.
This should solve your problem.
Thank you.

Changing the Chart Title in Graphic View in Interactive demand Planning

Hi All,
Is it possible to change the Chart title in Graphic View in interactive demand planning screen.
When we go to interactive planning after loading the data we go to Univariate forecast then switch to graphic, the chart title shows the selection at which the planning is done. For eg; If I plan at die level and i select a particular sap material, the chart title displays Die value and not the material value.
Is it possible to change the chart title such that it displays all the selections made in selection winodw, like in the above case both Die value as well as SAP Material Number.
Thanks and Regards,
Diana

Dear Diana,
unfortunately this is not possible.
The chart title is build from the planning book name + the Show characteristic in the shuffler (+ available nav. attributes of the Show char).
The functionality you requested doesn't exist in standard.

Tibor

Updating data in APO demand planning key figure

Hi
We have a key figure in Demand planning which is not present in Info cube, This key figure is just avaialable in SAPAPO SDP94for manullay key in some data, Now I want to update data in this key figure via extrnal file i.e text file.
Could u suggest some ways for this, Remember this key figure is not present in Info cube, Hence we can not feed in External file to Info cube, We some other way for updating data in this key figure,
Thanks and regards,
Nitin Lavhe

If your client is not Ok with standard way of flat file upload, Also If you will get a file from external customer on weekly basis then definitely they will put it somewhere either on local server or application server.
I would suggest, Define the format for the flat file,Ask User to put that file on application server, Write a simple program to get data from that file on application server, Update the KeyFigure using standard BAPIs available,After updation delete that file from server.Schedule this program in background on weekly basis so that every time it will check for new file on server path and update the Keyfigure accordingly.
I know this is a custom development but this will work.
Thanks,
Saurabh

History (shipment) data is missing in Demand Planning

Hello Gurus,
This is an unusual happened to our system recently. We have missed the history data in demand planning. But after an overnight, the histories are now available in the system. With this, can someone tell me why we do not see DP history data consistently before i.e. what causes the info cube load jobs not to run.
Thank you,
Sev

Hello,
Thank you for your answers guys, really appreciated.
On the planning book we've been using are NO macros that write on History key kigure to zero it. But when I checked the DP time series for LCA version 000 and got the message
"NUMBER OF SUPERFLUOUS TIME SERIES 9"
Can someone encounter this before? thank you.
Best regards,
Sev

SNP - Planning Book/Data View not showing up in /SAPAPO/SNP94

Hi All:
I created a planning Book out of a custom SNP planning area. While I could see the Planning Book in the list of Planning Book in the /SAPAPO/SDP94 - Interactive Supply Network Planning (all Books) I could not see the custom planning book in /SAPAPO/SDP94 - Interactive Supply Network Planning (all Books) . I could ony see the SAP supplied PB there. Will SDP94 transaction display only the standard SNP Planning book? How can I make sure that the custom PB is displaed in /SAPAPO/SDP94?
pl. help
Thanks
Ryan

Hi Narayanan,
a couple of simple checks..
can you please check that you have not set a filter critera in the shuffler in planning book/data view?
you can also check if by mistake only a limited number of users are assigned to this planning book and data view ?
else you may want to check note : , 327371
Let me if this helps.

Loading Demand plan data from APO to BW

Hi Gurus,
We have requirement as below.
we have to extract two key figures from APO to BW system
The 2key figures of APO will get data as below:
First key figure has to hold Yearly snap shot and 2nd Key figure has to hold QTY snapshot.
we have constrained production plan & sales plan keyfigures in apo demand planning and the requirement is to extract these 2 keyfigure quaintest into BI.
Data Example as below:
KF1: Yearly snapshot
KF2: Quarterly snapshots
Yearly data means from   Jan to Dec and
Quaterly data is as below
Qtr1 - Dec       JAN to Dec
Qtr2 (in FEB) - Mar to Dec
Qtr3 (in May) - Jun to Dec
Qtr4 (in Aug) - Sep to Dec
so please let me know to how to handle or extract these data into BW.
Thanks,
Shailaja

Hi Venkat,
Yes, both the key figures are ther in the same planning area.
But my question here is how to get that data into BW? meaning...
If APO/DP does the planning in the month of Sep 2010 for Jan to dec 2011 and the
values are like
Sep-10   jan      Feb mar   april may june july aug sep oct   nov dec
               15     14     13      11    10     11     12     16    14         15   22     20
Dec-10   12     14   16        18    29     20    18     15   14    12   17        20
Mar-11          10 12   13       14     15   16    17 18         20
Jul-11                                  20       40     30      40       50
meaning, If the planning is done in the month of Sep 2010 for the yr 2011 as explained above that values should be extracted into BW and the next planning will be done in the month of Dec 2010 again for entire yr of 2011 i.e. Jan 2011 to Dec2011.
But the values should be captured as they are.. that means if i use DSO the values from request1 to request2 will be over written n if i use the cube they will be added up..
Request1 will hold data of Sep2010: planning data
Request2 wil hold Dec 2010 data ....n req3 will hold data of Mar 11...
but users want to see the values or planning figures as they are.
Hope i made my requimrent more detailled.
Please let me know the solution to get the data as it is in BW.
Thanks,
Shailaja

Oracle 9i Database -- Performance window in Grid Control not data available

Hi
I have Grid Control 10.2.0.4 on Red Hat and i monitoring some Oracle 9i Instances. When i go to any of these instances to the Performance section, at begininig , ever, not data available in all the graphics.
When i select manual refresh the graphic begin to build information. But if i close the explorer and reopen , all graphics not have any information.
Is the situation normal for all Oracle 9i databases?
The explanation is that Oracle 9i not have AWR ?
Thanks

You have too few RAM on your machine, even you could successfully create an instance, it's going to slow as hell.
When you run DBCA to create database, instead of actually creating the database you could choose to dump the SQL scripts and files used for database creation to a directory. This way will give you a chance to modify pfile and reduce the SGA parameter. I believe the default SGA of instance created by DBCA is already beyond your RAM limit.

How to maintain Data availability in Oracle 10g RAC when LOADING the data?

Hi
we are having Oracle 10g server on Sun Solaris(64 bit) with 8 GB RAM.
We are in need of moving the database to "Oracle 10g RAC". (Real Application Clusters)
Our doubt is when loading the data into RAC server, will it affect the application?
coz' we heared that RAC server should be down when we load the data.
Is this correct?
If yes, then How to maintain High data availability when we load the data in RAC server?? Please help me.
Thanks.

First, is this the same question that a colleague of yours posted in this thread?
Data Load in RAC
Second, are other sessions querying the table that you're loading data into? If so, how are you loading the data?
