Order Policy

Hi all,
I am trying to enter a service which has already been performed for the accounting purpose in the sales order. When i am entering the service material number and trying to click on item conditions an error essage pops up saying "freight combination of standard freight, lift gate truck , standard, partil delivery is not allowded as per order policy". I wanted to check if there is an order ppolicy check in SAP, or shud i be checking with the business user.
Thanks!

@endpoint: Your approach should work as expected, as you involve message splintering, so even if a message comes with multiple recipients, only the ones not allowed to receive mail from .info will be blocked. As you supposed correctly, the policies are applied in order from top to bottom of the list. Also maintaining the list is easier with policies accessible from the GUI, while message filters require to have the whole filter changed when a recipient is added/removed (unless you use a dictionary, though)
@Doug, while your solution is also possible, however one problem with your message filter is that it will not work when a message is send to multiple adresses, and one of them is one of the allowed recipients. In this case, the message will pass to all recipients.
Hope that helps,
Andreas

Seperating purchase order requisitions by demand origin

Hello All,
I am hoping someone has some familiarity with dual flows for receipts.
Our supply chain services direct assembly (production order demand) and customer services (plant transfer order). Our purchase orders communicate the demand to the vendors without any indication of demand source. Once materials are received, we create a plant transfer order to move from our plant to the CS plant.
I am wondering if it is possible to setup SAP to segregate the demand to drive separate purchase requisitions. This would allow the product to be direct directly to customer services at receipt. In the screen capture below there is the dependent demand from assembly and the ConRel demand from the customer services plant (D003). These are rolled up in to purchase orders based on order policy.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Jason

Hi Jason,
In the standard MRP this is not possible to do it. You could use lot size EX (lot for lot), but if there are more than demand requirement on the same day, then the MRP will create a single replenishment order.
You can try with BADI: MD_ADD_ELEMENT. Check this thread:
How to create separate planned order / purchase requesition for same date

How to add a Cipher Suite using RSA 1024 algorithm to the 'SSL Cipher Suite Order' GPO

Following a VA test the Default Domain GPO has been set to enable the SSL Cipher Suite Order. Following the change Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager doesn't work properly as the the Home, Monitors and Reports pages are blank and an Schannel error is
logged in the SEPM server's event log.
I have spoken to Symantec and I have been told that we need to allow the RSA 1024 bit algorithm but they can't tell me which cipher suite this would be. I have looked in the GPO setting and can't see an RSA 1024 suite but have found some in this article:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01
I want to know how to add an additional cipher suite into the setting safely. Am I able to just add the suite into the GPO setting (eg TLS_RSA_EXPORT1024_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA) or do I need to do anything else beforehand?
If anyone has any advice regarding this or cipher suite orders and troubleshooting SSL problems it would be much appreciated,
Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,
Based on my research, RSA_EXPORT1024_DES_CBC_SHA is a previous cipher suite, which is supported, you can enable it use
SSL Cipher Suite Order policy setting under Administrative Templates\Network\SSL Configuration Settings.

Switching to AT&T with family plan -- need multiple iPhone 4's

We are currently Verizon customers coming to AT&T for the iPhone 4. We want to get three iPhone 4's, along with another regular phone, and put them on a family plan. My son lives 4 hours away, and won't be able to come to the local AT&T store on June 24 to get a phone.
Because of the limit of one per customer, can my husband and I each pre-order a phone and then still buy an additional iPhone 4 for my son at the AT&T store on June 24?
Could my son pre-order an iPhone 4 and have it shipped to my address for me to have activated with the other phones? He is not planning to transfer his number, the rest of us on the plan are.
Since he's not porting his old number, could he pre-order and have the phone shipped to him and then add it to our family plan once we've activated our new phones? Or do all the phones on the plan have to be activated at the same time and place?
Any information would be appreciated -- thanks!

AT&T has a whole upgrade and new account guide on its website. Looks like new accounts can order one per person in line but only one per account online. Existing accounts can order one new iPhone per line (numbers with AT&T accounts). Nothing has been released about Apple's pre order policy.

Use of Buckets in Pricing

Does anyone know how I can automatically default each and every promotion that I define in Pricing, to a new bucket, or its own unique bucket? We have hundreds of promotions, and new ones are created every month. Our order policy is that on an order, if two such promotions qualify, then the second one has to be calculated off the subtotal of the previous one.
It is impractical for me to add a new bucket number to the lookup PRICING_GROUP_SEQUENCE everytime a new promotion is setup in our system.
Any ideas?

I'm sure you could achieve your object by dataloading to the PRICING_GROUP_SEQUENCE lookup and using a forms personalisation from the modifiers form.
The personalisation would need a condition statement to restrict its firing to PRO type modifiers and call a function to read a next-available sequence number for your unique bucket (I'm making the assumption that you use Oracle forms to maintain your modifiers and not the HTML screen or via API - the latter could obviously be coded to apply the same logic).
Your only issue then would be to ensure that your bucket numbers never exceeded the number of rows you had dataloaded to the lookup.

MRP type: PD

When using PD for MRP planning, I found some interesting things.
For example:Material A, Safety Stock=12, current stock is 5 and there is a PO of 10 due July 15, today is July 13. Run MRP today, MRP generate exception message 20 to cancel the PO and an extra 30 to create a new PReq. Understanding that MRP tries to replenish the SS asap, as PD does, which suggests to cancel the existing PO and create a new PReq. The problem is the suggested Del.Date in the Preq is not sooner that Del.date in PO which is July 15.
Another material B, has the similar scenario of A, but MRP just does nothing to it. No exception message upone MRP run.
Does MRP perform nomally? Why MRP makes such decision for material A but keeps silent for B?
Thanks in advance.
JM

JM,
MRP uses the rescheduling horizon to determine which of the existing firmed elements to consider as 'valid' to support an existing requirement. If a firmed element is inside the rescheduling horizon, MRP will recommend a reschedule (eg change the date). If the firmed element is outside the rescheduling horizon, MRP will create a new proposal, and may in fact recommend that you cancel the firmed element that lies in the future. If you maintain no resched horizon, MRP will ALWAYS create a proposal for an unmet requirement (in this case, your safety stock). The date of the new proposal will be consistant with your ordering policy. This is typically at 'planned delivery time' for purchased parts. Doesn't matter if there is an existing firmed order (PO) there already.
Rescheduling horizon is set by plant or by MRP group. So, the reason one material might be different from another would be
a. Different lead times
b. Different plant
c. Different MRP groups.
It sounds like you have not defined a rescheduling horizon, or too small a resched horizon, for matl A. If one is not defined, create one. If one is already defined, try increasing it..
You can review and alter resched horizon in IMG transactions OPPQ and OPPR.

Using an International Credit Card.

I am trying to place an order from my account using my father's foreign card. I followed all instructions and used the TX address in the billing address. My order went through then got cancelled. What did I do wrong? I've been trying all day. Trying to get this item at sale price. I called BestBuy for help and they said I can't purchase that item via phone.

Hello Moore360-
I am sorry to read that your international purchase was not successfully, therefore not allowing you to take advantage of the deal you were looking for.
Using the email address you used to register onto the forum, I was able to locate the order. It was canceled and it cannot be reinstated. What went wrong? I am not able to give you much information as the order is under your father’s name and Best Buy privacy policy does not allow me to provide much information.
I do like for you to pay attention to Best Buy international ordering policy, it states that Best Buy does not ship internationally and all orders should be for US store pick up or ship to a US mailing address. I hope this information can help your future purchases successful.
Thank you for your time,

What's the process for updates?

I have an app on the app store. I have an update to that app in review and it has been since Monday (possibly Tuesday). After I submitted my update a competitor got updated. Now my app still hasn't been approved and my competitor has been updated a SECOND time. What is going on with the review process and why are some apps seemingly jumping the queue? Before you ask, there's nothing remotely controversial about my app (it's a shopping list app). The reason I'm getting a bit antsy (aside from the fact that my competitor is staying on the front page while I'm pushed to page 2) is that I have a second update with bug fixes I need to publish once the current one gets through the approval process (there's even no way to withdraw the current one in limbo and submit a new one either).

We are sort of in the same boat. It would be nice to know what the update ordering/policy is. Our initial version was submitted on June 27th early morning (around 1am) and we got approved on June 30th. Then we submitted the update on July 3rd. This was well before the deadline given to developers to be considered for the app store launch (July 7th). We assumed the update would be the version released on the app store. That update has yet to be released or reviewed.

How can I to use XML Catalog for OSM 7.0.3?

I have a xquery that execute a business rules in view.When I put it inside Data Instance Behavior, tab Data, inline, and
XQUERY the deploy in OSM doesn't work because it is a large xquery, more than 4000 characters.
So, I saw in OSM 7.0.3 doc (Developer’s Guide,Release 7.0.3 - Using XML Catalogs in OSM) that there is a possibility
of import resources files (xquery file in my case) in OSM Data Instance Behavior through XML Catalog.
I executed the follow steps
1) Add entry
*<rewriteURI uriStartString="http://br.com.ctbc" rewritePrefix="osmmodel:///XQuery/1.0.0/resources"/>*
to my catalog.xml, which is in path <My_Cartridge>/xmlCatalogs/core/catalog.xml
2) Set XML_CATALOG_SUPPORT variable in Design Studio with "enable"
3)Add *<oms-parameter>*
*<oms-parameter-name>oracle.communications.ordermanagement.util.net.CatalogUriResolver.DefaultXmlCatalogsUris</oms-parameter-name>*
*<oms-parameter-value>file://<My_domin>/XQuery/catalog.xqy</oms-parameter-value>*
*</oms-parameter>* to oms-config.xml, after unpack osm.ear
4) Created a Data Instance Behavior, inline and type XQuery whith source
declare namespace ctbcoms = "http://br.com.ctbc";
let $result := ctbcoms:retorna()
*return <DadosOrdem><Fim>{$result}</Fim></DadosOrdem>*
The XQuery that has the method retorna() has name: catalog.xqy. Code:
module namespace ctbcoms = "http://br.com.ctbc.xquery";
declare function ctbcoms:retorna()
let $retorno := 'teste'
return $retorno
So, when I deployed my cartridge I get the mensage:
Error on line 2
XPST0017: Cannot find a matching 0-argument function named {http://br.com.ctbc}retorna()
<11-Jan-2012 6:40:47,906 VET PM> <WARN> <impl.e> <ExecuteThread: '14' for queue:

]>
; Line#: 2; Column#: -1
net.sf.saxon.trans.XPathException: Cannot find a matching 0-argument function named {http://br.com.ctbc}retorna()
I am using Design Studio 3.1.3 with OSM 7.0.3.
Could have I a example these procedure? thank you !!!

Two observations:
1) Your inline xquery expression need to use the "import" xquery module expression. see point a) in my example below.
2) the change in oms-config.xml is to support the case for overriding the cartridge xml catalog ( for example developer, qa tester, etc) so this step is not mandatory to get your cartridge working.
=============================
For example, In OSM Order To Activate Cartridges 703, the OrderLifeCycle, Amending State/Submit Amendment Transition has the following inline xquery which delegates xquery implementation details to a PoinOfNoReturn.xqy xquery module
a) Inline Expression in Design Studio Entity
CommunicationsSalesOrderFulfillmentPIP\Orders\POLICY\CommunicationsSalesOrderLifeCyclePolicy
import module namespace pipponrfn = "http://xmlns.oracle.com/communications/ordermanagement/pip/ponr" at "http://xmlns.oracle.com/communications/ordermanagement/pip/ponr/PointOfNoReturn.xqy";
let $taskData := fn:root(.)/GetOrder.Response
let $checkPointOfNoReturn := pipponrfn:checkPointOfNoReturn($taskData)
if ($checkPointOfNoReturn ..........
b) xquery module
module namespace pipponrfn = "http://xmlns.oracle.com/communications/ordermanagement/pip/ponr";
declare function pipponrfn:checkPointOfNoReturn($taskData as element()) as xs:boolean { ....};
c) cartridge xml catalog
CommunicationsSalesOrderFulfillmentPIP\xmlCatalogs\core\catalog.xml
<rewriteURI uriStartString="http://xmlns.oracle.com/communications/ordermanagement/pip/ponr" rewritePrefix="osmmodel:///CommunicationsSalesOrderFulfillmentPIP/1.0.0/resources"/>
=======================
Optinally if you have OSM 703.3 path you can use <oms-parameter><oms-parameter-name> in oms-config.xml if you need to OVERRIDE the cartridge xml catalog.
d) osm-config.xml
<oms-parameter>
<oms-parameter-name>oracle.communications.ordermanagement.util.net.CatalogUriResolver.DefaultXmlCatalogsUris</oms-parameter-name>
<oms-parameter-value>file:///<My_test_folder>/XQuery/catalog.xqy</oms-parameter-value>
</oms-parameter>
e) your developer xml catalog overrideing the cartridge catalog:
your_full_path_to_xml_catalog.xml
<rewriteURI uriStartString="http://xmlns.oracle.com/communications/ordermanagement/pip/ponr" rewritePrefix="file:///d:/your_full_path_to_test_folder"/>

Re: Trade in Promotion for Note 4

I went into my nearest Best Buy store 2 days ago and pre-ordered the Note 4 for Verizon. Quick story, I was checking around the Best Buy site yesterday, browsing, and went to the Note 4 page to read over the promotion again. I noticed something that upset me. The price of the Note 4 for Verizon had increased from $299.99 to 349.((. I was not happy about this, and went into Best Buy to inquire about it. The manager wrote a note on my pre-order sheet that said the $299.99 price would be honored regardless of the price at time of pick-up. I asked him about the promotion while I was there.
This is what I was told IN-STORE by a BB manager:
"As long as you bring in a working smartphone that DOES NOT have water damage, and DOES NOT have a cracked screen, the phone will be eligible for the promotion. The $200 gift card you receive CAN be applied to the total cost of the phone."
Regarding the thing with the dates, as long as you PRE-ORDER before 10/16, you will be eligible for the promotion.
I'm hoping a Best Buy employee can chime in here and confirm all this. I too was worried like you, but if any funny business happens at the time of pick-up, I will definitely not screw around, and will cancel the entire thing before I accept not getting the promotion for any reason. I have asked multiple times now and have been assured that I'll be fine. This promotion is the whole reason I am upgrading through Best Buy and not directly through my carrier, and I hope I don't regret it.

Hello caseyb,
As someone who just recently got her hands on a smartphone for the first time, I can now appreciate how exciting the whole process can be. Getting a $200.00 gift card would be icing on the cake, so I can understand why you would want concrete answers about our trade-in offer included with pre-ordering a new Samsung Galaxy Note 4.
While we don’t anticipate it, pre-order prices can fluctuate over time given how far in advance we make items available to our customers. However, please know that you are guaranteed the lowest price with your pre-order. This means that if you purchased the phone on sale for $299.99 and the price rose to $349.99 the next week, your order should stay at $299.99. However, if you purchased it at $349.99 and the price drops to $299.99 after ordering, your order should drop down to the $299.99 when it’s ready for pickup. This is in accordance with our pre-order policy found here.
To qualify for this trade-in offer, your current phone must meet the following requirements:
1)      It must be able to turn on using battery power alone. Phones that require to be plugged into a power source to turn on will not qualify.
2)      The phone must be free of any cracks to its body or screen
3)      The phone cannot have liquid damage of any kind.
The dates listed on the promotion are a little tricky though. Like your local store manager stated, as long as you pre-order the Note 4 between 09/19/2014 and 10/16/2014, you should be able to take advantage of the $200.00 gift card we are offering with a trade-in promotion.
Having said this, please know that not all Best Buy locations are able to participate in this promotion. This is because some stores face county laws that require them to have a pawn license to accept trade-ins or have strict laws they must adhere to in terms of when payment for the trade-in may be issued. This is why we offer a store locator (found here) to help find participating locations.
Overall, you shouldn’t have problems with this promotion as long as your store of choice is able to accept trade-ins and your current phone meets the requirements above. If you have any further questions though, please feel free to let me know.
Best wishes,

Transparency issues with INDCS3 and Pantone color

Running Windows XP, Serv Pk 2, Creative Suite CS3, All updates.
Heres the deal: We are having problems with PDFs printing and Ripping when using transparencies and drop shadows.
Issue 1: INDD CS3 file with transparent PDF placed as image. Separate frame filled with paper, stroke and drop shadow placed under trans PDF file. Filled frame areas of percentage tint using a PANTONE color used on same page. File re-PDFed (compat to v6) and file printed correctly to XEROX 7760 and HP color. PDF views correctly. Recommended ordering policy applied to all layers as to keep drop shadow below text. PROBLEM: User running Acro 7 to printing to same color printers, receives copy with color tint areas missing.
Issue 2: INDD CS3 file with solid Pantone color on background. Several text frames layered above. Under text frame a solid box with SOLID Drop shadow. PDFed using Acro 8. PROBLEM: User's RIP and DIGITAL presses do not recognize the drop shadow? White knockout box appears in this area.
It seems that CS3 is handling transparency issues differently and/or that Acro 8 (compat to v6) is doing something different. The Acro 8 users have no problem printing or PDFing.
Could this also be the "known issue" of transparencies and PANTONE colors? We are testing out converting all the colors to CMYK.
Please respond at your earliest.
KEN PANTHEN, Albany, NY

Ken,
If your final output is to the Xerox, which can't print Spot colors without converting them to CMYK, you should use process colors instead.
Also, read the articles from InDesign Secrets:

Production planning run

Hi,
I have a continous supply of raw material with predifine schedules like 1000Lt at 7AM,1200Lt at 8AM etc. till 7.00PM. When i run the PPDS heuristics how the system accounts these expected planned receipts.Shall we have to created any STR or Schedule agreement...System has to consider these receipts and then only it has to generate further supplies if these are not sufficient...
Regards
Hemanth

Hemanth,
OK, SAP_MRP_001 is one of the standard 'MRP' type heuristics. I will assume that you know that this heuristic will perform MRP Demand-type planning.
For this heuristic to function, I will further assume that you know you need to have demand elements in place (dependent demand, Independent requirements, sales orders, etc etc).
When this heuristic runs, it will perform a net requirements calculation. This means it will look at all existing supply elements (stock, planned/production orders, purchase reqs/purchase ords,etc), and at all existing demand elements, and will determine in a time-phased fashion each place where demand is not met with supply. It will then look at the ordering policy of the material, and create procurement proposals.
So, to your issues:
Now i have to prepare a production planning schedule for tomorrow utilising the stock quantity first and based on the expected quantity schedules.
This is standard MRP planning. SAP_MRP_001 will do this, provided you have sufficient demand in place
I dont want the system to create Purchase requisitions.It should check the expected supplies and create planned orders for production planning.
The procurement proposal type will depend on the settings in the product master. Generally, if the material is 'externally procured', you will get a purchase requisition. If it is internally procured, you will get a planned order. Also, SAP_MRP_001 standard functionality is to check existing supplies during its calculations.
Now my question is how should i capture the expected supplply hourly schedule in APO and whether this Heuristics check these quantity schedules?
The exact timing of the procurement proposals will depend on when you actually have a shortage. This in turn is dependent on the timing of your demand elements. You can set the SIZE of the procurment proposal by setting the Lot Size procedure in the Product Master. In your case, I believe a time-based policy would be in order, such as 'by period', period = hour; number of periods = 1.
In your post you didn't mention:
Fin goods, Assembly, Raw materials
MTO or MTS
Process or Discrete
Demand or consumption planning.
Capacity Issues.
How to execute the plan
I am going to stick my neck out and make the assumption that you do not have a lot of experience in the area of PP/DS, or planning in general. If you are asking these questions because you are trying to learn about planning, fine. This is what these forums are for. On the other hand, if you are in a position where your job requires you to create these planning scenarios for your client, or for your business, then I strongly advise you to go to your supervisor and ask for help. SAP offers many fine schools to learn about these issues, and there are many consulting companies that will guide a company through the implementation of PP/DS planning.

Order for resources in OAM authorization policy

Hi All
Does the order for the resources in OAM authorization policy matters or can I put the resources in any order ?
Thanks

OAM performs resource Authentication and Authorization based on the URLs. It doesn't matter on what order you try to put them.
