OSA - Higher manager in planning period

I can use the higher manager role in the part appraisal status but I can not use it in the planning period. Is there any way to use higher manager in the planning period?
Regards,

Hi,
Did you activate the WF for that particular Workflow?
Check the Tcod SWDD and here give The Workflow id 12300122 and chek the triggering event. It should be activated (Green color).
Also you can simulate the Higher level manager for the same appraisal document.
Do the Following to simulate the Agent.
1. Goto PFAC and give Rule = 12300020 and goto display
2. Now Press (Shift + F8) to simulate the rule.
3.In the Pop-up screen, give the appraisal docuemnt id and press F8 button.
4. You will get the Higher level manager if you have assigned it to the appraisal document.
5. If nothing is coming here, then the Higher level manager is not assigned to Document.
6. Get the help of an ABAPer for Workflow related testing if needed.
Hope this helps you.
Reward if helpful.

Subbu.

  • COMPLETE BUTTON is not visible in OSA-HIGHER MANAGER WORKFLOW

    Hi

    The problem is when we send the Appraisal Document to Higher manager for completion of Document, the Complete button doesnt appear in BSP, but when i check the in URL that is being generated after the manager has CLOSED PART APPRAISAL in workflow inbox has COMPLETE button, i copied URL and generated the page but the COMPLETE button here is in Display mode. I am not able to close the document.
    I am not able to see the same button in PHAP_ADMIN too.
    The same thing working when i tested earlier, but now its not working.
    Please help.
    Thanks n regards
    Aadi

    Hi Aaditya,
    Goto transaction PHAP_CATALOG. Select the templtae for which you have created the document. Goto the tab "status flow" and check the button in the "in process" stage. if the complete button is not there then it will not reflect in the document.
    Choose the button as Complete and create again. The templte status has to be changed to cancel release. So delete the document to change the status.
    Hope this helps you.

  • Budgeting and Planning periods in Comensation Management

    Hi guys,
    Do budgeting periods and Planning periods have to be the same in compensation management? Based on the SAP documentation, I understand that planning period can be different from budgeting period? What if my client has budget period from 01/01/2009 to 12/31/2009 and his planning period from 04/01/2009 to 03/31/2009? It should not matter to me since we are assigning the budgets to the adustment types. What are your views on this? Can you please let me know @ the earliest?
    Thanks in advance
    Sri

    HI,
    You can have different budget period and planning periods...it depends upon how the client wants it but you need to check how the amount assigned to an employee is deducted and from which budget period..
    eg. budget periods
    01.01.2008 31.12.2008
    01.01.2009 31.12.2009
    Planning period 01.04.2008 31.03.2009
    Planning period is overlapping 2 budgets hence will the amount for april to december be deducted from first budget and for the remaining 3 months from the second budget period.

  • How to change the field 'Current Planning Period' in xRPM portal?

    Hello All,
    In xRPM portal, under portfolio management --> financial planning, we have a field 'Current Planning Period'.
    Can anybody tell how to change the values of this field for all the projects/items at once?
    Also, when I am trying to change for individual projects. its opening the F4 help but not  selecting the date on which I double click.
    Thanks
    Niti.

    No, you cannot add another vPC peer-keepalive configuration.
    Taking down vPC peer-keepalive will not affect your vPC peer-link and vPC operation. It will be a problem if and only if vPC peer-link went down after the peer-keepalive is down first, this will cause dual active.

    Dear,
    Error message 61123:"Error determining planning periods for calendar &".The PPC planning calendar specified in the material master MRP 2 view for the material is  incorrectly.
    The planning calendar periods are insufficiently maintained for the planning calendar used.
    Check the period of planning calendar in MD26 and generate the correct period.You can avoid the problem in several ways:
    Maintain the planning calendar far enough in the future (at least until beyond  the end of the planning horizon).
    Also check any demand is lies beyond the validity period of planning calendar.
    Reduction of the planning horizon of MRP also can control such issue, as MRP planning horizon lies in an area in which the planning calendar is no longer maintained

  • Error determining planning periods for calendar

    Hello SAP Guru's
    We are receiving the above error when trying to go into MD04 for a particular material.  we have checked the forecast agains the planning calendar and the dates in the forecast and demand planning are approximately 2 years less than the end date in the planning calendar.
    Checking SAP it has said to extend the planing calendar past the planning horizon. It is already extended past the planning horizon.
    The only issue with this product is that the material will soon be superseded by another material, this has a different calendar assigned to it.  Could this be the problem?
    Any info gratefully received.
    Thanks
    Sue

    Hello Vicky,
    The error occurs when first going into MD04.  The exact error message is as follows:
    Error determining planning periods for calendar M14
    Message no. 61123
    Diagnosis
    The system could not determine sufficient planning periods by the planning calendar to group requirements by planning calendar periods for all the requirements planned in the future.
    System Response
    When a material is planned by using the periodical lot size by planning calendar, sufficient periods must be calculated to group requirements by the planning calendar for all requirements.
    Procedure
    Rework the planning calendar with which the material was planned, which means calculate new planning calendar periods.
    To do this, go to Customizing for MRP, under the activity Change PPC periods.

  • OSA - Performance Management

    Hello,
    I'm in the process of trying to configure performance appraisals in ECC 6.0 that will be used with the BSP pages in ESS/MSS eventually.  I have a couple questions below that I cannot figure out through testing and have been unable to find any helpful documentation on a good process.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.
    1 - As part of the current process, the managers fill out the appraisals, review with the employee, and then they both sign-off.  After this, the appraisal then goes to the next level of management for review prior to HR.  Is there a way to allow only the manager to enter an appraisal, but allow the appraisee and higher-level manager to then both approve it?
    2- So far the only option I've seen is to try and set it up as a part-appraisal process where the employee and manager are the part-appraisals, and then the higher-level manager becomes the final appraisal to show their sign-off.  After that I believe we can have HR approve the appraisals in phap_admin_pa.  If part-appraisals is the only way to achieve this sign-off, is there a way to copy the values entered by the manager in the part appraisal column over to the final appraisal column that would belong to the higher-level manager?  As you can expect executives shouldn't have to re-complete the same questions, but instead just approve the review given by the manager.  We can't allow the executives to just sign-off without valid entries in the final appraisal column either because as I understand it that is where the weighting and final calculations are determined from, which we need.
    I thought maybe the further participant part would provide an option, but I haven't seen any documentation on how to make that work and so far my testing of that has yet to produce any results.
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Thanks Regi.  I do have a few follow-up questions.
    -Based on your reply I have setup the higher manager and appraisee to have display access only so that only the manager (part-appraiser) can enter ratings.  Once this is complete, how do I allow both the employee and higher manager to sign-off on those?  Is this were you were talking about the pushbutton?  So that they'd still have a pushbutton to mark complete, approved, etc to keep the process moving forward but their columns would have no values?
    -If I do allow this, how do I ensure that the managers part-appraisal values are what is used as the final appraisal values?  Based on my understanding of the flow, the higher manager would be signing off in the final appraisal column (and would have to be listed as the true appraiser so that they have the last step of the process) which would then contain no values due to the display setting right?
    -The question above relates to my previous comment about being able to copy column values.  As I understand it, unless I make the manager fill out the form twice, then the higher level manager has to be the true appraiser so that they have the last step.  The manager would then just be a part appraiser.  Is there a better process here I'm missing?  I was also concerned about listing the higher-level manager as appraiser because I was afraid that would make using phap_prepare_pa difficult if the admins want to follow the org structure.

  • LCM: Foundation Calc Manager vs Planning Rules Files

    I need to LCM rules files and see the rules in 2 different places, Foundation -> Calc Manager and Planning -> Rules Files. Which one is the correct file from which to LCM, and what is the difference between them?
    Also, files that were brought in via LCM show under Planning -> Rules Files but NOT under Foundation -> Calc Manager. Why would this be?
    Thanks!
    FA

    For this you need to understand the underlying design. Unlike HBR, which acted as the Rules repository, in Calc Manager, rules need to be deployed to Planning from Calc Manager. Once the rule is deployed to Planning, it (Planning) maintains the copy of the rule in it's repository. You can continue to make changes to your rules in calc manager and it will not have any effect on the rule in Planning.
    So during LCM, you will the rules in 2 places, one in Calc Manager (the version can be different from what is in Planning) and also in Planning.
    So you can import the Planning rules via LCM and it will run without calc manager coming in to picture. But if you want to edit these rules and deploy it back to Planning, you would need to import the rule via lcm in to Calc Manager and redeploy to Planning.

  • SOP planning periods

    We are planning products in SOP where the planning period is a generated period (weeks and months). Planning will be done first in period weeks and then in months i.e., the requirements will be entered for first 4 periods as weeks and then for next 2 periods as months.
    Example
    Planning
    Period           Requirements
    Week 1     100
    Week 2     250
    Week 3     300
    Week 4     400     
    Month 1     1500
    Month 2     2000
    Now we redesigned our planning period pattern as days, weeks and months.
    i.e., Week 1 and Week 2 as days then weeks and months as above.
    Example
    Day 1
    Day 2
    Day 15
    Week 1
    Week 2
    Month 1
    Month 2
    In Set parameters for info structures and key figures if we define the planning periodicity as T (Day), W (Week), M (Month) and generate the period, the system is giving an information message
    No technical period generated for period unit 'day'
    Message no. MA866
    And the period is automatically changed to day.
    Period unit 'day' is used as planning period unit
    Message no. MA859
    There is NO PERIOD GENERATION in the info structure?
    Is it possible to generate the period pattern as Days, weeks and months ? How ?
    Thanks
    Soundar

    Dear rajesha
    The fiscal year variant will be generated when you save the set parameters for info structure.
    In this case the the planning period is chaged to days and no fiscal year variat is generated.
    Thanks
