Parameter Exit Function in Planning Folder

Hi all,
I created the planning function in SEM BPS using exit function. And then I added the parameter exit function 0VERSION to this function. After that, I tried to put this function in the planning folder.
Does anybody know how to put the parameter exit function to the planning folder?
Because I need the user to fill the value of the 0VERSION before they run the function.
I assume this should work as the selection screen.
Currently, Every time I run this function, there is no selection screen or the place that I could fill the value for this field. So, the system always receives no value for this field.
Or Maybe you have another approach to get the user's value without restrict the data before run the exit function.
Thanks a lot for your help,
-Martin Darmawi-

This behaviour is quite normal. You should use different approach.
Parameters in exit functions can be filled in parameter group only and only with fixed values.
You should create a planning variable, put it to the folder and then read value of this variable in your exit function with 'API_SEMBPS_VARIABLE_GETDETAIL' for example.

Exit function in Planning Folder

We are using BPS and I have a request to do some modifications in a specific planning folder.
When executing the folder, when the user introduces a new line, if a specific field is left empty they what me to change it to a constant, when user saves the folder.
Im an ABAP developer in R/3 and my help was requested to solve this issue using a planning function of exit type. The problems is that when Im passing in the exit function Im receiving only the values that were there before the user introduce some new information. Im not getting the new lines.
Like I said Im an ABAP developer in R/3 and BW and BPS is all new to me, so I dont know if this is the normal behaviour of the system or if Im doing anything wrong.
My question is then: its possible to get only the new information to get through the exit function or this isnt possible and if its not is there another way to do this (when saving change the value of an empty field).
Thanks in advance.
Best regards
Sónia Reis

Hi Sónia,
You should check with your colleagues what selection criteria they have in the Planning Level. There is a good chance that your new records do not satisfy this criteria and hence they aren't in your Exit function.
There are two possible solutions to this issue:
1. Adjust existing Planning level criteria so new records will satisfy it.
2. Create a new Planning level with selection criteria that satisfies records you are looking for and put your Exit FM there.
Which way to go depends of your particular case and perhaps your BPS colleagues could decide which option to select.
If they can't make this decision please send me additional information of what selections you have in existing Planning level and what information is entered in new rows.

Gersh

Hi Mynak,
Thanks for your reply. Yes ur r correct, we cdon't create planning function in the planning folder insted o this we can drag the created planning function into planning folder.
How to drag this from left side to right side and place into global planning function area.
I am missing some thing. I couldn't slect the planning package and parameter group.
Can u let me know how to do this one.
It would be great help for me.

Hi Sarah,
Can you be please feed in some more information on the function you have created. What is the parameter group you have created. Is the error coming while checking the planning folder or before that.

Deriving Planning Folder Technical Name From User-Exit

Dear Colleagues,
For those of you who know ABAP, do you know if it is possible to determine the technical name of a planning folder from within a user-exit (i.e. planning function that has been executed from within a planning folder)?
Customer states: They would like to use a Planning Folder, and invoke a planning function of type user-exit (i.e. via button in folder), which will execute an ABAP that has a case statement for conditional execution of steps, based upon the technical name of the planning folder that invoked the call.
Thank you in advance for any guidance or feedback you may be able to offer.
-M

Hi Michael,
Write this code in the exit function
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fsl_class> TYPE REF TO cl_upb_pm_applc.
DATA: name(50),
 plan_folder TYPE upb_y_ps_name.
name = '(SAPLUPB_PM)gr_applc'.
ASSIGN (name) TO <fsl_class>.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
 CALL METHOD <fsl_class>->get_active_pm
 RECEIVING
 r_pm = plan_folder.
ENDIF.
Glad I could be of help to the mastero.
Let me know if it worked.
thanks

BPS planning folder; Scroll to top after execution of planning function

Hi All,
After execution of a planning function, or after saving data in a planning folder, the layout jumps back to the top and displays the first row, even if the user was positioned on another row.
I know BPS does this because it recalculates the data and tries to display it.
However, it is not very user friendly.
Did anyone ever solve this ?
How do you remain positionned on the line you are working on after saving or execution a BPS planning function?
Thanks in advance for your answer,
Points will be rewarded to solutions.
Filip Ledoux


Hi 
There are some APIs which BPS uses internally to save data. You can make a Planning Function of Type EXIT using function moule of your own calling API_SEMBPS_POST (to save data). 
You can call this EXIT Function as a step next to your copy function in your Global Planning Sequence. 
Please refer to Note 422998 - SEM-BPS processing large data volumes if you need further details for implementing this solution.
 
Hope it helps.

Reading Data From a Different Planning Package in a Exit Function

Hi,
Is it possible to read data from a planning level / package other than the package that the exit function was executed with? I want to read data into an internal table from another package and use that data in combination with the data in the current package to create new records. If this is possible sample code for how to read data from a different package would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Mel Waldner

Hi,
As an example lets say you have restricted 0calmonth in your package to 6.2007. In the planning layout to fetch values for 5.2007 (read only), you can take 0calmonth in data columns, and for this column restrict it as 5.2007.
Similarly in Planning functions, you can mark 0calmonth as field to be changed and fetch data for 5.2007.
Hope this helps.

Reading manual planning function header data in exit function

Hello all,
I would like to know if is there a chance to read header data of a planning function. The planning function is determined by user selection (user choose which value will be in ) and in exit function I then modify the buffer by data which I get by calling RFC on another system.
My problem is that buffer contain all the planning data for whole planning area (it seems) so there is many unnecessary call. How can I get in exit function value specified by user at start of a planning session?
Thank you for your help

Hi,
There's some issue the planning funciton will only read the data specified by the users (variable values).
Check the configuraiton once again.
thanks

Attribute value to exit function module

Hello group,
I'm working in a sem-bps project and I have a problem with an exit function, because
I need the function module to read the value of a characteristic's attribute.
I read the standard function module UPF_VARIABLE_USER_EXIT_ATTR: it retrieves the attribute value through the import parameters ITO_ATTR TYPE UPC_YTO_ATTR.
I put this attribute on my exit function but when I check the content of the attribute its always empty. Do you know how I can transmit the parameter from the exit planning function to the function module?
Any input is appreciated, thanks Andrea

Andrea, if you want to fill a variable with the characteristic's attribute of another variable look at the document "HowTo_BPS_VarOfTypeExit.pdf" (i send at your e-mail if you want). It Follows an extract in which it's filled the second variable with the characteristic's attribute of another variable:
Source code: Attribute values
SELECT * FROM /bi0/mbps_produ INTO TABLE lt_chavl
WHERE bps_prodl = ls_varsel-low.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE e026(upc) WITH ls_varsel-low '0BPS_PRODL'.
attribute value not found
exit.
endif.
ls_varsel-seqno = '0000'.
ls_varsel-chanm = '0BPS_PRODU'.
LOOP AT lt_chavl INTO ls_chavl.
ls_varsel-seqno = ls_varsel-seqno + 1.
ls_varsel-low = ls_chavl-bps_produ.
APPEND ls_varsel TO eto_charsel.
ENDLOOP.
In the example above ls_varsel contains the attribute value to provide to eto_charsel (the output table in which you have the result).
I suggest you to debug your application to see how ito_attr is passed to the FM.
Hope it helps.

Hi,
After some changes in the code, it seems that xth_data table is assuming the new content. In debugging, we could see that the assignment was made and xth_data records are now in a different order. But when executing the BPS Layout assigned to this planning function, all the lines (records) still in the same place. The Layout doesnt change.
This is the code:

Exit Function not writing data to InfoCube

Hi All,
I created a planning function where i have defined a exit function. This is just adding 5 KFs and storing that in another KF of the Infocube.
When I execute that it gives me mesg that 11 records read, 0 of them changed and 0 generated. When i check the contents of the infocube I find nothing being changed.
Can you please let me know why it is not writing it into infocube. I debugged and find the code in the function module getting executed and it is stopping at the break point but not writing to the infocube.
An early response is appreciated.

Parameters in exit functions

Hello
We have the need to build an exit function in BPS. I have defined the function module and I have also defined a parameter (which I access throuh IT_EXITP within the function module).
The way we have implemented BPS here requires us to invoke BPS functionality through the API calls. So, for eaxample to call a planning function we use API_SEMBPS_FUNCTION_EXECUTE. My problem is that there appears no where on this API top provide paramter information. Does anyone know if it is possible to call an exit planning function witht he API and give it a parameter ?
Thanks
Cameron

Hi Cameron,
unfortunately it's not possible to pass parameters to a planning function using the API. Try using BPS variables instead.

Figure not updated with exit function

Hi,
I have created a function module & have attached to an exit planning function, have create a planning folder that contains input layout from manual planning & this new exit function. but when test the planning folder, figure that have already calculated in the function not refreshed to the input layout, i do debug & the assignment value already correct.
what should i do to make the assignment in function module get updated in the input layout? the figure used in the fm is in editable mode in the layout.
Please kindly help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Can you tell how you have added this FM in Planning folder?
For each function, you can define when the function is executed:
1. Pushbutton: The user executes the function by clicking on a button.
2. Execute before layout display: The function is executed before the planning layout is displayed. If the function changes data which is displayed in the layout, the changes are immediately visible in the layout.
3. Execute before layout change: The function is executed when you exit the planning layout. If the function changes data which is displayed in the layout, the changes are not immediately visible after opening the layout.
I guess you can use "Execute before Layout Display" mode for your planning function in the planning folder.
