Pricing with IPC4 and CRM4

Hi,
I'm very new to IPC and CRM-Pricing and need some help for a special task.
I need a function module in CRM4 to determine prices with the IPC4.
At the end, this function module should act as a webservice (rfc-enable) to determine prices for a products by using the following input-parameters:
- materialnr.
- sold-to-party
- Sales Org.
- Distribution Channel
- Division
For this task I tried to implement an ABAP function module that uses the function module 'PRC_PD_CREATE' and 'PRC_PD_ITEM_CREATE'. The problem is that I get always 0.00 values as price back. You can find the IPCServErr.log in the text below. Can you imagine what I've done wrong, or do you know a better way to get prices out of CRM by using the IPC?
IPCServErr.log:

Hi
For the Characteristic pricing Table name:SDCOM and field name VKOND the values are updated.You need write code E.g.,
$self.Z_pricing = 'A_1' if $self. Z_finish = 'A_1
Here Z_pricing is the characteristics maintained for pricing
Z_finish is the characterstics where the components A_1 is maintained
Hope this will get some picture
Regards
Ramesh

Issue in bringing up CRS on ATG 10.1.1 with MySQL and Weblogic 10.3

Hello,
I am trying to bring up Commerce Reference Store as part of my evaluation using MySQL (bundled with ATG) and WebLogic 10.3.
I followed the ATG Documentation on CRS with WebLogic and MySQL and I could not proceed because of the below error log. I keep getting error in OnlineCreateServerInstanceTask of CIM. I believe it should be some configuration problem, but could not think of any.
As part of the installation, I use C:\jdk1.6.0_25. I verified my weblogic server is up through the admin console. I started MySQL before running the eval batch. Apart from starting MySQL server, I did not make any datasource/database configuration changes for ATG. I have not run any other scripts to configure MySQL too.
Please guide me to resolve the problem.

This error is resolved after following the logs in C:\ATG\ATG10.1.1\CIM\log\cim.log. The root cause is I used http as protocol instead of t3 while specifying weblogic admin url.

Sales Order with Partial and down payment (milestone billing)

Hello Experts,
I have configured a scenario where a down payment and a partial payment and a closing invoice is done on the billing plan for a sales order. The down payment request was done and posted manually in FI and the process went well. The issue i have is that the down payment is not reflected in my partial invoice or my second invoice and my closing invoice as well is not reflecting the payment made for the partial invoice (which is suppose to contain the amount less the down payment).
Please, how do i resolve this issue?
Thanks.

Hi,
See from what i feel from your description is, the business process is as follows:-
1) You receive the down payment request, this goes to a special g/l with indicator "F". Now when you recieve the payment you subsequently clear the amount through T-code F-29. In this case the down payment amount or the advance is treated as a deposit, which you adjust against each partial invoice, or completion of certain project.
2)When you create a partial invoice, considering the example in my earlier post you book complete value of the invoice i.e. RS 800.
The client requires that RS 720 and Rs 80 should goto seprate g/l accounts. IN this case you need to define a condition type say "zadv" assign a new account key to it say "zad" in SPRO>SALES AND DISTRIBUTION>BASIC FUNCTIONS>ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT/COSTING>REVENUE ACCOUNT DETERMINATION>DEFINE AND ASSIGN ACCOUNT KEYS.After billing of the correspoding amount I.e RS 80 will be cleared through F-39. Please check the same with you FI consultant.
3)Since the condition tab page is greyed out , SPRO>SALES AND DISTRIBUTION>BASIC FUNCTIONS>PRICING>PRICING CONTROL>DEFINE AND ASSIGN PRICING PROCEDURE>ASSIGN PRICING PROCEDURE TO BILLING TYPES. Also check in tcode VOFA wether oc. pric. procedure si assigned or not.After doing this you can add teh condition type "ZADV".
also you can refer to this link down payment condition type (azwr)

Inbound process with WM and HU

Hi Friends ,
I am exploring different possibility Standard SAP supports for goods receipt process through Inbound deliveries.TO make things simple right now I am only finding possibilities for EXTERNAL Material receipt only.
The steps I know invloved in Inbound delivery process are (with WM and HU)
1) PR - Source assignment - PO - Release PO
2) Advance shipment notification (ASN)
3) Inbound delivery creation
4) Packing of material on Goods receipt
5.1) Put-away - Automatic TR creation
5.2 ) Put-away - Automatic TO creation
5.2 ) Put-away material - TO Confirmation
6) PGR
Now I am looking for different configurations by which can automate processes mentioned above from point 2 to 6.Like
2 and 3 ) ASN / Inbound delivery : I know that ASN can be received from vendor (in the form of idoc) and can create Inbound delivery automatically.But what if Vendor doesn't provide ASN message , how can we create deliveries for expected material ? Do we need to use VL06I ??
4) Once the Inbound delivery is created , I know we can automate packing process ... not sure about the configuration.I only know that this invloved condition technique where we create Conditions / schema / condition records ... BUT where do we assign that SCHEMA ( like pricing schema is attached to PORG group / Vendor grp )
5.1 ) Do we always need to have a TR to get TO created against Goods receipt OR can we can ask system to create TO directly without any TR ?
5.2 ) TO Creation - Automatic TO creation as soon as the packing is completed.
Where is this setting ? I understand there are two process 1) real time TO creation 2) Background TO Creation. For immediate TO creation I can see a configuration in IM-WM movement type assignment configuration , is that all ??
5.3 ) TO Confirmation -.Like TO Creation , do SAP also provide functionality to CONFIRM TO immediately or through Background Jobs ?? What are the required settings ?
6) How can we automate the PGR process ?
Sorry for this long query , but I hope there are many other friends who are interested in knowing all such possibilities.
Thanks in advance for all your help.
Regards
Shrey

2 and 3 ) ASN / Inbound delivery : I know that ASN can be received from vendor (in the form of idoc) and can create Inbound delivery automatically.But what if Vendor doesn't provide ASN message , how can we create deliveries for expected material ? Do we need to use VL06I ??
    Option 1: You can use transaction VL34 to create inbound deliveries by PO, Plant and the delivery date.
    Option 2: You can use transaction VL31N and click the Purchase Orders to create inbound deliveries.
4) Once the Inbound delivery is created , I know we can automate packing process ... not sure about the configuration.I only know that this invloved condition technique where we create Conditions / schema / condition records ... BUT where do we assign that SCHEMA ( like pricing schema is attached to PORG group / Vendor grp )
    First we have to create the packing instruction in POP1.
--> Give a packing instruction name.
--> Then in the line 1 - Enter P and the packaging material
--> Then in the line 2 - Enter M and enter the material to pack and give the quantity to pack in the packaging material. Eg: In each pallet how much quantity to be packed.
Second go to the transaction POF1.
--> Enter RCPT and based on the combination Material/Plant/Vendor, select it and enter the Material and the Packaging Instruction you created before.
--> Then you can do the autopack in VL32N.
5.1 ) Do we always need to have a TR to get TO created against Goods receipt OR can we can ask system to create TO directly without any TR ?
--> We can create the TO directly from the VL32N.
*5.2 ) TO Creation - Automatic TO creation as soon as the packing is completed.
Where is this setting ? I understand there are two process 1) real time TO creation 2) Background TO Creation. For immediate TO creation I can see a configuration in IM-WM movement type assignment configuration , is that all ??*
   SPRO - Logistics Execution - Warehouse Management - Activities - Transfers - Set Up Autom. TO Creation for TRs / Posting Change Notices
5.3 ) TO Confirmation -.Like TO Creation , do SAP also provide functionality to CONFIRM TO immediately or through Background Jobs ?? What are the required settings ?
   SPRO - Logistics Execution - Warehouse Management - Activities - Transfers - Define Movement Types
   Then select the Warehouse and the movement type 101 and select the option "TO item can be confirmed immediately"
   This will confirm the TO as and when the TO is created.

SAP Quickviewer query for pricing records - V12L and KONH / KONP

Has anyone used the logical database 'V12L' for pricing queries? There seems to be an issue with this logical database with some vague warning messages.. When I tried to create a simple table join query with KONH and KONP there are again some vague errors. I need to see the following fields in the query output.
KONH-KNUMH, KONH-KOTABNR, KONH-KSCHL, KONP-KBETR, KONP-KONWA, KONP-KPEIN, KONP-KMEIN.
Are there any other simple and robust way to query KONH and KONP simultaneously? Thanks in advance.

Hi Dhanaraj,
I tried linking KONH and KONP and it just gave me just warning errors that won't affect your query. Disregard those errors since your not using it anyway and proceed as usual.
Try not to query directly to these tables as much as possible for obvious reason, IT"S HUGE....
I suggest to start with AXXX pricing tables and then link KONP with it. It's faster and you can directly identify the key combinations used.
Enjoy!

Sales return with warranty and without!

Hi,
I have a scenario like sales return,
2 cases, with warranty and without warranty
I need your guidance on controls,
1st case with warranty,
Stock has been taken in to the plant with respect to sale return order.
I generate service order SM01 (Non revenue generated)
Maintain operations and material
goods issue and operation confirmation
technical completion.
Now I run DP90 for resource related billing. And need to control that service order cost does not go to billing document. But I don't want to bill the customer.
Please correct me, I only settle my service order and leave it. How should I go about it. Please help me.
2nd case, when there is no warranty,
I create a service order SM02 (revenue posting allowed)
Maintain operations and material
Then run DP80 to generate quotation and confirm quotation.
goods issue and operation confirmation
technical completion.
Run DP90 for billing the customer.
Could you please suggest me if I need to make any changes to this. If so, which part of it (SPRO) i need to configure.
And as per my understanding if service contract exist then it will help to determine fixed price in with out warranty case.

Hi,
Yes I could able to run DP90 though I don't declare the order as revenue based. Infact the if refurbishement order (SM03) has to trigger automatically from sales order RA. Infact if it is revenue based we canot even generate it from sale order.
You can even refer to this following link which states that cycle.
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/e6/4a8df09e0311d189b70000e829fbbd/frameset.htm]
I have only doubt during this process billing is based on DIP profile. But how does pricing procedure is coming in to picture. And how and where to link Pricing procedure. Please guide me. And from one of my collegue came to know that accounting Indicator can be used to get discount condition in pricing procedure so, that when we run for Warranty cycle we can bring that condition to get 100% discount through KBM1 condition type.
Regards,
N,Nagaraju

Question Regarding Mesh with 3702 and non AC ap´s

Hello!
quick question regarding MESH deployments with 2 different sorts of AP´s: AC and non-AC modells: If my 3702i is my root AP´s, and 3602i my MAP - will AC still work in 80Mhz, or will I have to switch to 40mhz (and thus crippling (???) AC performance?)
Not 100% sure on this... I *think* it should still work for the normal 802.11n connection, but I´m not sure if the 80mhz channel width (needed??) for AC, will cause the non-ac 3602i to be stranded?
Thanks alot for your insight!

Currently, my network DHCP server is a software based DHCP server. In reading over your post if I understood correctly it sounds like the managed switch would have its own hardware based DHCP server to assign IP addresses to those clients identified on the "external" VLAN. Did I understand that correctly or did misread something?
DHCP server will be software based, even though you defined it on your switch, it is DHCP service running on its OS.
I am configuring this setup for a small business application and will need to purchase a managed switch with 16 or 24 ports. Do you have any recommendations on a particular managed switch that will handle the VLAN configuration and include POE while keeping costs in mind.
In this forum, most of us discussed about Cisco enterprise grade wireless. Here is 2960X series switch detail, if you are interested
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/switches/catalyst-2960-x-series-switches/index.html
You may need to check the pricing with your Cisco account manager or from a Cisco partner.

Integration documentation for sap sd with fico and mm

hi Sappers,
I need Documentation for SAP SD with FICO and MM Module
its very urgent.
mail id : [email protected]

Some basic information :
FI-MM: The integration between FI-MM happens in T-code: OBYC
1. When PO is created :
No Entry -
2. When GR is posted
 Inventory Account dr (Transaction Key BSX in OBYC)
 To GRIR account (T.Key WRX in T-code OBYC)
3. When Invoice is posted
 GRIR account Dr.
 Vendor account Cr.
4. Payment made to Vendor
 Vendor A/c Dr
 To Bank Clearing A/c Cr.
Points to know : Movement Types, Assignment of Movement types to T-keys (T-code OMJJ), Value string (I also need some information on this) , OMWN and OMWB transactions.
There is a close integration b/w FI & MM, actually document flows from MM to FI in the following areas such as,
 1. Movement Types:
Used to enable the system to find the predefined posting rules determining how the accounts of financial accounting system are to be posted & to update the stock fields in the matrl master data.(Goods Receipt, Goods Issue, etc)
 2. Valuation Class:
Assignment of material to grp of gl account, used to determine the gl accounts that are updated as a result of goods movement.
3. Transaction/Event key:
Used to control the storage or filing of documents & assignment of documents.Used to differeniate b/w various transactions such as goods movement tht occur in inventory.
 4. Material Type:
Each material should assign mtrl type in mtrl master record used to update whether changes made in qty are updated in material master record & change in value also updated in stock account.
 FI-SD Integration:
The integration is done in T-code VKOA
 1. Sales Order Created
 -No Entry-
2. PGI done (Goods issue)
 Cost of Goods Sold Dr (Configured in OBYC GBB T-Key)
 To Inventory Account
 3. Billing document released to Accounting
 Customer Account Dr.
 To Sales Revenue Account (ERL T-key in Pricing procedure)
Note : The GL account is assigned to this ERL in VKOA
 4. Payment Received
 Bank Clearing A/c Dr
 Customer A/c Cr.
Points to Know : Good to understand the pricing procedure and how the different transaction keys are used like ERL, ERS etc

MM integration with FICO and SD

Hello MM gurus!
Pls can any one explain about MM intigration with FICO AND SD with some real time objects.
i want to be clear in the integration part of this modules with MM.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Pieadad.

hi
The main integration between FI-MM is
1) Valuation & Account determination
main transactions are OMWB/OBYC
Material price change -- MR21
2) Purchasing -- Account assigned PO's & PR's
Tax code integration with pricing schema
3) CIN activities
J1IT India localization
if u search on net u will many sites providing integration of FI MM SD ,check following

Currency issue with PS and SD

All Experts,
Have some issue with USD and CAD currency with PS and SD
We are using a group currency in the controlling area (type 30 set as USD). In addition we have object currency turned on for the Controlling Area so we have company currency in parallel for each company assigned to the controlling area. Within CO everything is working fine, the issue appears to be when the CO-PS planned amount is passed to the sales order EK01 condition. In this case, CO-PS has both object currency and controlling area currency but it uses the controlling area currency as the amount passed to the sales order.
Any Help?

PS - SD integration are on
1.Billing pan, at each WBS element, network and Activity level.
2. DIP profile which is assigend to item category. DIP for resource related quotation works only with ECP ( easy cost planning).
3.sales pricing - generally, there r 2 types of sales pricing in PS . lumpsum contract and unit rate contract.
4. BOS - bill of Services. which has to be activated. It is industry specific solution. If BOS is activated you also have integration for vendor RFQ and Analysis.
5. resource related Billing

I've just found that three movies I've bought from iTunes on on my iPad are not showing up on Apple TV or anywhere other than that iPad. What's up with that and will I lose these films if I reset this iPad?

Thanks. The reason this has become an issue is that I recently bought a new Macbook Air that the iPad is not synced to. The one is was synced to was stolen. If I want to sync this iPad to the new Air, won't it be wiped before I'm able to copy these films or am I wrong about that?

Problem with xfce and/or mouse and keyboard

Hi!
Two days ago I've turned on my laptop with Arch and the display manager Slim has frozen immediately. Later on Single-User mode I've uninstalled it. Now in normal mode when I type "startxfce4" everything is showing up, but the mouse and keyboard don't work. I know it's not frozen, because animation of mouse and CPU Frequency Monitor is on.
Strange fact is that laptop is not connecting with the Internet, so now I don't know where the problem is.
It's happening when I start xfce both from user and super user.
Just before those troubles I've updated everything with "pacman -Syu", but I haven't seen anything strange. Also the computer could have been roughly turned off (by unplugging power supply), when was turning on.
Thanks,
Gaba

Sorry for not replying, but I didn't have access to my laptop by this time.
On grub I have only normal mode and 'fallback' mode, so I have result from 'journalctl' from normal mode.
I'm sending the fragment of this file where you can see everything after I typed 'startxfce4' in console:
http://codepad.org/8pYIj8qC
I see that something is wrong, but after some attempts I don't know how to fix this ^^
Edit:
Oh, I forgot to write, that I've tried activate some drivers from 'lspci -k' (there were no "Kernel driver in use:..." in almost every device), but it didn't fi anything.

Problem with JFrame and busy/wait Cursor

Hi -- I'm trying to set a JFrame's cursor to be the busy cursor,
for the duration of some operation (usually just a few seconds).
I can get it to work in some situations, but not others.
Timing does seem to be an issue.
There are thousands of posts on the BugParade, but
in general Sun indicates this is not a bug. I just need
a work-around.
I've written a test program below to demonstrate the problem.
I have the problem on Solaris, running with both J2SE 1.3 and 1.4.
I have not tested on Windows yet.
When you run the following code, three JFrames will be opened,
each with the same 5 buttons. The first "F1" listens to its own
buttons, and works fine. The other two (F2 and F3) listen
to each other's buttons.
The "BUSY" button simply sets the cursor on its listener
to the busy cursor. The "DONE" button sets it to the
default cursor. These work fine.
The "SLEEP" button sets the cursor, sleeps for 3 seconds,
and sets it back. This does not work.
The "INVOKE LATER" button does the same thing,
except is uses invokeLater to sleep and set the
cursor back. This also does not work.
The "DELAY" button sleeps for 3 seconds (giving you
time to move the mouse into the other (listerner's)
window, and then it behaves just like the "SLEEP"
button. This works.
Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

I've had the same problems with cursors and repaints in a swing application, and I was thinking of if I could use invokeLater, but I never got that far with it.
I still believe you would need a thread for the time consuming task, and that invokeLater is something you only need to use in a thread different from the event thread.
