PPDS - Overlapping Operations ( Start- Start) activity relationship

Hi Experts,
We are having two operations 010 and 020 in a routing and we want to schedule both the operations at the same time and not in sequence. I believe that we can use the "required overlap functionality" in the routings for the parallel scheduling of the two operations.
After setting the overlap functionality when I trying to run SAP_PP_002 the operations in the PPDS order are being scheduled in sequence. In addition, the PPDS PDS also shows an End- start in the activity relationship (I don't know if this makes any difference)
Could one of the experts please let me know what are the settings in PPDS that you used to run the two sequential operations in parallel in APO?
Thanks in advance

Hii,
You can use Parallel sequence of operations in the routing to make the activity in PDS/PPM as start to start relationship. And PPDS heuristic will consider the same ..

How to trigger the start of activity in BPM Studio 10.3

Hi
I am new to BPM Studio 10.3.1.
I have configured two External Resources
1)J2EE Application Server: Giving details of the application server on which my JMS Queue resides
2)JMS Messaging Service: Giving details of the JMS Queue
I want to trigger the start of BPM process/ activity execution when a message arrives on the configured JMS Queue from an external system.
How will I be able to listen to that queue?
Similarly, I would also like to know the steps to post a message to JMS through the activity in BPM Studio.
Is there any document available that helps in configuring the External Resources other than the Studio Reference guide and User guide.
Can anyone please help on this?
Thanks

I don't know if this is exactly what you're after when you wan't to start an 'activity' with a JMS message,
If you're searching for a way to start the process, this might be your solution:
String procId = process.id;
*// Load the JMS Message in the argument holder*
m_begin.load(xmlText : message.textValue);
logMessage("JMS message retrieved from queue: \n" + message.textValue, severity : Severity.DEBUG);
*// Set the arguments which are sent with the new instance*
*Any[String] argsIn;*
argsIn["beginArg"] = m_begin;
*// Specify the process in which the new instance should be created*
ProcessInstance.create(processId : procId, arguments : argsIn, argumentsSetName : "BeginIn");
If you wan't to notify an instance which is in a Wait activity, you can use this:
*// Putting the message in the paramaters*
*Any[Any] params;*
logMessage("JMS message retrieved from queue: \n" + message.textValue, severity : Severity.DEBUG);
params["waitArg"] = m_wait;
*String instId = {instance ID};*
Notification.send(instanceId : instId, activityName : "WaitActivity", argumentSetName : "WaitIn", parameters : params);

Manual creation of PPDS Planned Orders by start date and time

Hi,
When an order is manually created in any ppds standard transaction the start date is calculated according to the availability date entered, the order quantity and the master data
Is it possible to manually create an order based on the start date and then the availability date is calculated according to the order quantity and master data?
Thanks
CTF

CTF,
You can 'forward schedule' manually created orders.
Scheduling direction is dependent on the Strategy profile. During order creation, you can change this.
When on the order create screen (/sapapo/rrp5), select the strategy button at the top. This will bring up the default strategy for your userid. You can alter the "planning direction" to be 'forward' or 'forward & reverse' depending on your business requirements. Selecting Save will then make this scheduling strategy your default; otherwise just hit green checkbox.
Now the order entry screen will have 'start date' entry box. Avail date will then be calculated.

How to create business operation for starting workflows

How to create business operation for starting workflows from worklist?
When I call methods that implements business operation from java class everything
works fine(wlpi-ejb.jar is required), but when I call business operation from
Studio I can't use classes from wlpi-ejb.jar.

Business operation is called by WLIS. So, I include wlpi-ejb.jar into WLIS classpath.
Studio uses deployed EJB from wlpi-*.jar, I don't know why Studio doesn't see
methods from deployed EJBs when WLIS classpath contains wlpi-ejb.jar.

When studio starts, what is your classpath? If you use the included batch
file to start it, then your class path may not include this :-)

MS Project - Start-to-Finish relationship with two successors

Hi everybody,
I do not manage to solve an issue and would highly appreciate any support.
Issue:
- I have fix milestones which I would like to use as fix points to tell me when activities are required to start (depending on their duration)
- as a consequence, I have started backward scheduling through start-to-finish relationships starting at the milestones when the activities should be finished
- as progress will be tracked only at the milestones, they are the most important dates when activities need to be finished, if they are moved, all tasks may generally be used (the plan is to rather display when activities must start then when they actually
do start to give guidance to the employees in charge of the tasks)
- some tasks have dependencies with a milestone (=deliverable) as well as other tasks
Problem: No matter which relationship types I apply, I do not manage that the "constraints" given by all relationships are considered
Example:
- Milestone 1 is on June 30
- Task A and B should be completed at milestone 1
- Task B can only start when task A is completed
- as explained above, I would like milestone 1 to be a fix date which if moves influences dates of task A and B accordingly
Among others, I have tried the following solution:
- Task A: in predecessors - task B (SF) and milestone 1 (SF)
- Task B: in predecessors - milestone 1 (SF)
- Result: Task A and Task B both finish with milestone 1 neglecting the condition of task A to be a predecessor to task B (in SF mode)
- completion rate of all tasks is set to 0%, if I leave out the relationship between task A and milestone 1, task A finishes at it should just before task B needs to start to finish at milestone 1
Thank you very much in advance!
Best regards,
Benjamin

Hi Guillaume,
thank you for your support. Unfortunately, this is not quite my issue. I have set up a general example in MS project to illustrate the issue, but unfortunately I am not allowed to post pics here.
So I will explain what I have set up.
- 2 tasks: task A, task B (only duration fix)
- 2 milestones: milestone 1, milestone 2 (fix dates)
- task A needs to finish before milestone 1, task B before milestone 2
- also task A needs to finish before task B starts
I would like to know when I need to start with task A and when with task B in order for these conditions to be met.
(Issue: with relationship type SF, task A will start right before milestone 1, task B will start right before milestone 2, as a consequence, task A will NOT finish before task B starts)
I could also send you the respective MS project file if I had your email address.
Again, thank you very much!
Ben

CTM PDS with Overlapping operations

Hello APO Guru's,
Has anybody come across on creation of CTM PDS with overlapping operations?
We have a requirement where we have 5 operations/phases in our Master Recipe and have defined a Start-Start relationship between operations, with an offset.
We have activated an BADi /SAPAPO/CURTO_CREATE, to create a CTM PDS while CIFing PPDS PDS. CTM PDS gets created but without any activities.
Could anyone provide any insights on how to handle this situation?
With Regards,
Mangesh

PDS activity relationship

Hello Experts,
Can anyone explain how can I control the activity relationship in APO PDS.
I need to change the relation from End to Start to Start to Start.
It has to be somwhere in the routing I think but I'm not able to find out what exactly.
Thank you very much in advance for your help
Regards
Georgi

Hi Georgi,
As you are aware, a typical routing has got many
operations and activities.
There are many activities which happens parallelly
or one after the other.
If you have activities 10, 20, 30 etc., each one will
be followed and will get start after the previous one
got end.
The same will be maintained in routing master data
(using ca01 transaction) and this will get transferred
as PDS data into APO.
This activity relationship data will be used by PPDS
during scheduling of orders into its activities.

PPM in CTM: Activity Relationships

Dear Friends,
Here a query from my side:
As per CTM Faq note: 855229, CTM supports only End-Start Relationship activities.
We are generating PPMs without Lot Size Margin in APO 4.1 and are getting start-start relationships. This is inspite of the fact, that in the PPDS PPM, the activity relationships are end-start.
Could anyone throw some light on why this is happening? Any note for further reference would be really helpful
Looking forward to hear,
Sudhir

Hi Sudhir
CTM is a SNP functionality , so in SNP parellel relationship is not supported in application area>PPM and as well in PDS.
Since SNP /CTM PPM is using the PPDS PPM to generate you will face problem in application area too.
Now you need to use PDS inspite of PPM(Since for PPM SAP stopped the development work).
For PDS - You have an option of generation CTM PDS while generating a PPDS PPM ,there is a Badi needs to be activated for this.
Start-starts will not be supported.,since this creates a parellel sequece!
But you want start-start ,in the CTM you can use PPDS source of supply,but the order will be a PPDS Source order,if you dont want then follow the other options.
I hope I have clarified your doubt.
Kind regards,
sundar

Notificating overlapping operations

I have 3 operations, where operations 1 and 2 are overlapped.
I need that notifications 1 and 2 could be done independent of each other. I mean, the system must allow me notify this scenarios:
- first operation 1 and then operation 2;
- first operation 2 and then operation 1
Can I do this using overlapped operations?? What settings do control this?

Hello, and bienvenida.
If according to the process you can confirm anyone of the operations, I wonder if makes sense to have these as overlapped or even maintain any kind of precedence relationship.
The easiest way: maintain them w/o relationships; then you confirm the operation in any order.
If there is a relationship but the operation key is not allowing you milestone confirmations, you could be able to confirm any operation but you would get some message regarding some previous operations not yet confirmed.
Let me know if this can be helpful.

How to read data in CRM Activity relationship tab.

Hello friends,
I have a requirement to read data from CRM Activity relationship tab.
Mainly i have to read Transaction No/object refernced trans field of CRM Activity relationship tab.
Could anybody help me?
Thanks,
Bunny

Hi,
have you found in the meanwhile a good solution?
I have also a similar requirement.
At the moment I'm using the view CRMV_ACTFORGP to get the activities associated to a BP (by the way you have many filters that can be used) and then for each GUID (order guid - CRMD_ORDERADM_H-GUID) I call the fm BAPI_REL_GETRELATIONS to get the list of relationships.

Zsolt,
The {600} error is reporting an issue with the database.
What version of iDS have you installed? All the latest versions will require an 8.1.7 or 9.0.1.3 database.
I suggest you get the latest patch for the database and bring it up to 9.0.1.3.

Removing all activity relationships

Hi all,
Please help me with a solution on how to remove all activity relationships from my schedule.
I have tried:
Creating User Defined Fields (unable to create predecessor "then" command, as this is not on the list)
Exporting to Excel, deleting relationships, then re-importing (receive error log as "Failed to find a matching object for Activity Relationship")
Using the "Fill Down" option in activity table view
All above are not successfull!
Do you have any more ideas?
Much appreciated,
Sam

sam
i think you have not tried the easy option here.
just copy all the activites for which you want to remove the relationships then paste it
during the pasting option untick the RELATIONSHIP Tag and paste it.
you will get the all the activities without relationship.now you can delete the original activities with relationships.
Cheers

As your web server's user. I don't see why you are opening another topic for your wtorrent installation, both topics will be so much intertwined you might as well keep it centralised in one topic - both for your own ease of use and for future reference by other users wanting to have a similar setup .
Add the web server to the group that owns those folders involved, and make sure it has write rights to the folder it needs to write to.
