PO Financial Commitments

We need to identify our Financial Commitements for open purchase orders. Is there a SAP transaction / report that will show the open PO values?

Hi,
There is no standard report for open POs. You can try ME2N to get all the POs, then filter which are not invoiced, no GR etc..
We did custom report for this. you can do custom report with the help of ABAP.
Thanks,
Venkat

Lightroom5 to Photoshop Elements

A while ago I downloaded Lightoom 5 and Photoshop 6 as a trial. As I decided not to have monthly financial commitments and chose to opt out of the cloud. Instead I purchased Lightroom 5 and Photoshop Elements. Unfortunately when I want to open my image from Lightroom in Photoshop Lightroom attempts to go to the cloud. My second option for editing images in a different software I use for Portrait Professional. How can I change the fixed first setting in Lightroom 5 to open images in Photoshop Elements? I tried the recommendations in one of your blogs but was unsuccessful to change this setting. Please help me with this issue. Thanks

The default external edit action in Lightroom is always Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. I think it is determined at the time you install Lightroom. So if you don't have the full Photoshop installed anymore, only Elements, try reinstalling Lightroom and it should pick it up.
On the other hand, you can define as many external editors as you wish - in Edit - Preferences - External Editing tab - Additional External editor.

Activate Commitment for Purchase order after PO approval

Hi there,
A requirement is to have fund/financial commitments set only after PO approval (ME28, ME29N) and not before.
Is there any standard way or BADI or workaround to have such a system behaviour?
Kind regards

Hi again.
You are working with PSM - Public Sector Management (or EA-PS), were, additionaly to financial management you have budget management.
Try, in tcode SM30, to find tables starting with PFM*. This table - PFM_01005 - sets the moment when you want the commitment to be created.
Other helpfull tcodes:
PFM_TPCCOMP
PFM_01TP29
PFM_TPGCOMP - Geração automática do Compromisso
PFM_01050
PFM_01004
Cheers.

Will someone from the UK please help with a security query?

Hello
I've been subscribing to a facility which provides cheap telephone calls, since around 2004. Details may be found here: http://www.call18866.co.uk
Last month my credit card was reissued for another three year period which, in turn, meant that previous financial commitments had to be renewed.
When I visit Call18866 to subscribe to my account I can, indeed, gain access to the secure areas, but I can see no 'https' nor a padlock when I use Safari as my browser!
I have also used Firefox, Chrome and SeaMonkey browsers to view the site - and they DO show 'https' and a padlock!
I'm wondering if the fault is with me or with the Call18866 wesite!
I should be most grateful if someone would use their Safari browser to check whether or not they can find a 'padlock' or an 'https' link at Call18866.
Thanks.
David B
PS I have questioned Call18866 about this. They have simply said that their website is secure!

Commitment management and fund management

hi kings
I am unable to understand the Commitment management and fund management. What is actual role and function , objectives. What is the importance and why we useing the commitment mangt and fund magt.
regards
ram

Hello
As far as controlling is concerned, it is used to enter and analyze commitments at an early stage and control them in the module.
Example Po's and PR lead to financial commitments and the costs would be incurred in future, so commitments are included in funds monitoring.
For integration CO and MM need to integrated. The tasks created in MM are transferred to CO.
You would have various activities in commitments.
Funds commitments can be created in IO for orders, projects, cost centers etc
As far as funds managements is concerned, you could create and execute budgets.You could budget revenues and expenditures for areas of responsibility.
Funds management need to integrated with BCS(budget control system),GL,SD and MM and CO.
Also, you could analyse the source and use of funds and monitor variance and means to check and control.

WBS ZPS.EXZZA210.1484 : WiP in Financial Accounting is still to be cleared/

Hi guys
I cannot close the WBS element beacuse of this message WBS ZPS.EXZZA210.1484 : WiP in Financial Accounting is still to be cleared/settled. All the orders are closed and there are no commitments
. I also ran the RA as well.

The settlement was done in same period. In the RA i maintained manually because there were few cents outstanding. I am not sure if that might have caused the problem. Below is the screen shot of the manual adjustment i have done in RA.The column with lots of zero's is the one i adjusted manually.

When to prefer Financial Plan Vs Form base budgets? Adv and Dis-advantage?

Hello Experts,
Can any one explain me the difference between Oracle projects financial plan vs oracle projects form based budgets?
What is advantages of each of them and when to provide preference over each other?
is it possible to use both of them simltaneously?
Does forecasting functionality available in both of them?
Need insight on this
Thanks
will Really appreciate ur response.
Thanks

Hi
Form based budgets are the only supported budgets for Budgetary Control and integration of project budget with GL budget.
If you are not using those functions, there is no advantage for the form based budget.
With financial plan you can load budgets using Web ADI.
You can use more robust resource lists.
You can use multi currency amounts
You can generate budgets and forecasts based on various sources like workplans, actuals, commitments and any customized logic using client extension.
You can report on financial plans using the HTML project performance reporting.
You can rollup budgets and forecasts amounts on a program.
Summarizations are done immediately and you don't need to run a batch process.

PA Missing Commitments Issue

Hi All,
I have couple of projects for which the AUD report is giving couple of documents which has funds check missing commitment's error message.
I got a data fix patch 7662888 in metalink for this issue, but unfortunately this doesn't work for all projects.
Can anyone help me to fix this issue, even data fix will do.
Thanks,
Vishwamber Shetty

Hi Vishwamber,
The missing commitments error is usually indicative of data corruption. This error occurs when the funds check engine is unable to find the original commitment that its trying to relive as it moves the amounts from (say) the commitment to the actuals bucket. Typically this error is seen in cases where during the course of the Project Funds check enabled project, the check-boxes in the "Encumbrance" tab in the financial options window are unchecked / checked at some point.
First thing we need to do here is to see if the critical patches related to funds check have been applied. These fix a lot of issues in the funds check area.
I'm not sure of your apps version , however you can refer to the following Notes and see if you have the critical patches applied as per your apps version.
Critical Consolidated Codefix Patch Released For Oracle Project Costing - Funds Check (Doc ID 1430023.1)
Critical Patch Released For Customers Using Funds Check Functionality in Project Costing (Doc ID 1356459.1)
In order to verify / correct the data corruption have the GDF 13639679 (this patch supersedes patch 7662888) applied and follow the steps in the readme.
As always do the above is recent clone of production and check if the issue gets resolved. if the issue still exists, log an Sr with Oracle Support.

Raghavan

How to get Commitments into SL?

Hi all,
Here is a little challenge for Friday. Answers will be rewarded with lots of points like always:
We would need to get commitments into the SL. The SL is already in use to run some finance reports.
Now we would need get data from POs in.
What would I need to do with the existing structures?
How can I pass the data on from POs?
What about the reduction of commitments in the purchasing process?
How to update existing POs into SL?
Any ideas highly appreciated!

Hello
Check if this helps
Use transfer program RGUREC30 MM to transfer data from Materials Management.
Prerequisites
This program can only be used for MM documents posted in Release 3.0. For MM documents posted in earlier release versions, you have to use the FI transfer program.
Procedure
Choose Accounting ® Financial Accounting ® Special Purpose Ledger ® Periodic Processing ® Data Transfer ® Materials Management.
The Data Transfer from Materials Management screen appears.
Enter the following:
the company code for which you want the data to be transferred
the fiscal year for which you want the data to be transferred
the period for which you want the data to be transferred
If you leave this field blank, data will be transferred for all periods.
Information about the business transaction (such as the activity and/or origin of the document)
the valid range of document numbers for the data you want to be transferred
the document date of the data that you want to transfer
the posting date of the data that you want to transfer
the creation date of the data that you want to transfer
Set the required flags:
If you only want to test the data transfer, set the test run flag. If you select this field, the FI-SL tables will not be updated.
If you want to display a statistical list of the data transfer, set the List Required flag.
If you want to check whether data records already exist in FI-SL for the documents that you want to transfer, set the check flag. If data already exists, this will not be transferred to FI-SL.
A prerequisite for using the check function is that the data which you want to transfer must be saved in FI-SL.
Enter the name of the target ledger to which you want to transfer the data.
For the ledgers which you want to be updated, the company code flag on the Change Ledger: Activity Assignment screen, posting assignment field, must be set on either 2 (ledger posted when data is posted subsequently) or 3 (ledger posted directly and also when data is posted subsequently). You set the posting flag in Customizing. You should also set the line item flag for ledger to which you want data to be transferred. For further information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Special Purpose Ledger.
If other users are posting data, you should be cautious when using this program in online mode. In this case, you should only transfer old data. We recommend that you only start these programs if no other users are posting data.
Choose Program ® Execute.
Result
The system transfers the data from Materials Management to FI-SL.

Open commitments though Delivery complition ticked for PO.

Dear Experts,
I am facing a very strange issue.
We have a PO with 10 line items all items are alike except line item 9/10 where unit of measure is EA (each) and for others it is D (days). (account assignment catagory as Project, in the account assignment WBS element, Commitment item, Funds center, Fund are maintained, and it is same for all line items),
All the items are ticked for del.complition. So apperantly these items should not appear as open commitments in Funds consumption report,
First Eights lines (which have unit of measure as D) are not appearing in Fund consumption report but the last two line items 9/10 (with unit as EA) are appearing as open commitment in Funds consumption report.
I just changed the unit of measure of line item 8/9 to D from EA and saved the PO. After this i run the Funds consumption report and to my surprise the line items 8/9 are not appearing as open commitments.
I am not getting how come Unit of measure is playing role in Funds consumption.
Can somebody help me understand.
Best Regards
abhijit

Hi,
This reply is more of a guess work than otherwise:
Commitment seems to be created with unit of measure as D, possibly because that is the base unit of measure. EA could be alternate unit of measure which is entered in the PO. When you set delivery completion indicator, commitment is removed to the extend of EA rates (reason note known - possibly due to corrections in PO subsequently from D to EA. You can check the PO change history in this regard)
To further understand the issue, you can verify the value of commitment with D & EA from table COOI by passing the object number with and without delivery completion indicator. Alternatively, you can use transaction RKACSHOW to see the changes in commitment with differing units of measure and with / without delivery completion indicator.
Please post the results after trying out.

Proxy error while running the financial report in workspace.

Hi,
We are using the Hyperion financial reporting 9.3.1 with Essbase as a data source.
While running a report in workspace, we are getting the 'Proxy error' meassage, which is following-
"<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
'<html><head>
<title>502 Proxy Error</title>

Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid

Do anybody have any idea on this? Any help will be appriciated on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Mohit Jain

Hi Iain,
We are using Microsoft Internet explorer 6.0. I am not sure about the 'proxy' (As we don't have any proxy setting in Tool--> Internet options--> connection--> LAN setting). We are accessing the Workspace and FR studio via Citrix application. How can I check the proxy.
Also, I noticed one more point, Report has prompt for seleting 'Account hierarchy'.If we run the report only for one account hierarchy, report is returning the data but while running for multiple account hierarchy, it is throwing the 'Proxy error' as memtioned above.
Please help us on this.
Thank & Regards,

Error while running the financial report in the workspace.

Hi,
Im getting the below error while running the financial report in the workspace in HTML mode.
*"Required application module reporting.HRRunDlg is not configured. Please contact your administrator".*
And im not able to login to the Hyperion Financial Reporting as well.. i get the below error
*"You are not authorized to use this functionality. Contact your administrator"*
Can someone let me know how to resolve this error.

You don't mention the version, what app server or web server you are using, etc.. That information might be helpful, but in general, you can try the following:
1. Make sure you have gone through the FR Web App deployment steps and verify the settings entered in the Config Tool.
2. For version 11.1.1.x and 9.3.1.x, try opening the report in FR Studio and running it via the FR Studio Print Preview (*bold*not*bold* Web Preview.) If the report runs/processes, then the back-end FR Services are functioning and the issue is confined to the web interface. Verify the FR Web App is up and listening on the designated port (8200, by default), check the FR Web App logs and the App Server (WebLogic, WebSphere, Tomcat, OAS) logs for errors/issues.
If the report fails to process in FR Studio Print Preview, then there is a problem with the FR Reporting Server Service. Check to make sure the service is up/functioning and check the FR Report Server logs for errors.
3. Test access to other FR functionality in workspace (ex: Files->Preferences->Financial Reporting or Explore->Tools->Database Connection Manager?) If these don't work, then try to connect to the following URLs:
http://workspaceServer:19000/hr/status.jsp
http://frWebAppServer:8200/hr/status.jsp
Note: The URLs above assume standard/default ports. You may need to adjust them for your environment.
If the first URL fails, but the second URL works, there is a problem with the HTTP redirect settings on the Web Server (Apache, IIS, etc.) Run through the Workspace deployment and make sure the Web Server Config settings point to the right ports/servers.

Resetting a clearing document from a previous financial year - Vendor Payment

Finance team needs to reset a cleared item from a previous financial year. The cheque was
never presented. They are unable to create a new invoice to pay the vendor without this cheque going
through and being processed.
However, when using transaction code FBRA they receive an error message
"clearing document from alternative fiscal year-. Message no F5A258".

There are two option
1. You Open the Close Period, or change the reversal code, which can allow alternative posting in the current period.
2. Go to the IMG - Controling - General Controlling - Change Message control. Give the message application area and then the number and turn it off. (Tcode : OBA5)

Inspite of making sure that all the days of 2009 are covered by periods 1 to 52. We are still unable to save the FYV.
Please help!

Hello, I am getting this error while saving the FSV. My FSV is based on Weeks. Below is what I am inputting for this. Other details are Calender Year - 2017, No. of posting periods - 53, checked year dependent. Also, I have FSV for previous years also where weeks are 52 but configured as 53. So, hope that this is not creating this issue. Solicit your early response.
