Product pricing and effective dates

Hello guys,
Hope all of you are doing fine.
In my current implementation we are going to integrate the pricing in the product repository, however I was asked to find out if anyone in the team has experience with putting pricing in a product or material repository in MDM and specifically dealing with the requirement of having effective dates for different prices.
If you have such experience or thoughts to share please reply.
Also it would be useful to know if you are aware if SAP has any future plans to release such functionality in future versions of the tool (or business content).
Kind Regards,
Jorge

Then my cardinality is drastically reduced to 92K (actual 110M) - leading to Nested Loops further up the query plan....
I don't have histograms on the columns involvedIf you add histograms on the involved columns, is the optimizer picking up a better execution plan?
Also note that the problem might be that you need a combined value distribution on two columns. This is possible from 11g onwards, but not before. Check out http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/oracle-database-11g-top-features/11g-manage.html (Search for Multi-Column Statistics)

What parameters determine Planned order production start and end dates?

Greetings
We are using the graphical planning table @ MF50 to firm Planned Orders (Basically checking off "Firm Order" field within the Planned Order). We are on ECC 6.0
Whenever I backflush, the production start and end dates get overwritten (The Basic dates do not change).
I would like to prevent this. Can someone advise me on what parameter controls how the production start and end dates getting changed?
Thank you
Hanarin

Hi,
Calculating production dates ( Lead time scheduling) are explained in detail in the SAP help URL as below:
If "Automatci Scheduling indicator" is set in the customizing for scheduling parameters then after every change relevant to scheduling, the production order is also automatically rescheduled before saving.
You need to check these settings.

What is the Difference Between Sys Date and Effective Date ??

Hi Gurus,
Can any one pls let me know What is the Difference Between Sys Date and Effective Date ??
with regards
User600722

EFFECTIVE DATE usually refers to a date-tracked record (although not exclusively).
Date-tracked records in Oracle HR have an EFFECTIVE START DATE and an EFFECTIVE END DATE. The record is 'EFFECTIVE' between these dates. In reports, you often use SYSDATE to compare to these two dates to find the CURRENT effective record, e.g. SYSDATE BETWEEN EFFECTIVE START DATE AND EFFECTIVE END DATE.
When you make changes to a HR record, you can choose between DATE TRACKING options, such as CORRECT or UPDATE (there are others too). CORRECT will overwrite the record and replace the data with your changes. This is normally used when you need to correct something that is wrong. UPDATE will create a new version of the record from the EFFECTIVE START DATE you choose. It will also set the EFFECTIVE END DATE of the previous record to the day before your new record's EFFECTIVE START DATE. That enables a history of records to be maintained so you can see what your data looked like at ay one point in time.

Transfer of Product Master and Contract data from SRM server to CAT

Hi,
We are using XI system to send product master data from SRM system to CAT (catalogue authorising tool) wherein both the SRM and the CAT add-on have been installed on the same web application server.
On the SRM-> XI part, we are going to use ABAP client proxy. My question is can we use ABAP server proxy to send data from XI to CAT ? In other words, is CAT a part of ABAP system so that we can use proxy ??
I am new to SAP environment and hence this question.
Regards
Ramesh

Hello Ramesh,
for uploading SRM master data to CCM u need not do any developements in ABAP , u have to just import SAP predefined SWCV's in Integration repository and configure required scenario "MasterDataInclusionInCatalogOnWAS" for u r corresponding WAS version.
U can download configuration document from service marketplace named " Configuration Fact Book CCM 2.0 "

Product Expiry and Release Date

I have two products set up, one to expire on 7th Feb, the other to start on 8th Feb. They have an increase in price hence the expiry of one and release of the new product.
Does anyone know if one will expire at midnight and the other start at 12.01am?? Is that how it works?
I'm also in Australia so I don't know if the time is set differently?? (Sorry if that sounds stupid)

Perfect....if not please reach out to our live support chat or submit a case ASAP so we can assist further.

In house production time and delivery date on PO

Hi Gurus,
Can anybody please calrify the following for me? Plant A is procuring material X from PlantB via STO. The planned delivery time for the material in plant A is 21 days. The in house production time of the material in plant B is 3 days. When the STO is created, with a delivery date of 04/26/2010, based on the planned delivery time of 21 days, the material has to leave the plant B by 04/05/2010. But what what about the considertation of 3 days of inhouse production tiume in plantB. How does the inhouse production time play in picture?
Thanks
Anusha

Hi
Inhouse production time in Plant B is considered if there is a planned order or production order is created for material in plant B. If a STO is created in plant A, then system will check only planned delivery time in Plant A only. If you want some buffer, you need to use GR processing time in plant B.

Product planning and backing data to users computer

Hi, I'm learning to program on the mac and have a quick question that has popped into my head. One of the most important features in having software on the iPhone is a strong back-up process of the users data. I am struggling with different types of solutions including:
1) Creating a mac desktop client application that syncs back and forth with the iPhone (like Omnifocus does)
2) Creating a back-up process that just backs-up to mobile me (like some other applications)
3) Creating a back-up process that just stores a back-up file on the users computer
4) Doing step one and also producing a duplicate window's client as well
I really want to support iPhone users that use windows as well as mac (so I'm not limiting myself). I guess the question I have is how hard is it to port over a Mac desktop client (built with NSObjects stuff) to windows. I'm thinking it is impossible unless it is developed with pure C/C++ (because apple specific objects and such won't port).
So I think I have answered my own question with "hire a windows developer" to develop out the windows desktop client when it gets to that point.
Anyone have any feedback on how they have creatively worked through this problem?

What particular and otherwise mutable iPhone data, beyond this list spec'd by Apple, are you specifically considering as part of a procedurally strong backup/sync session?
iTunes will backup the following information:
iPhone OS 1.1 and greater
* Safari bookmarks, cookies, history, and currently open pages
* Map bookmarks, recent searches, and the current location displayed in Maps
* Application settings, preferences, and data
* Address Book and Address Book favorites
* Calendar data
* Wallpapers
* Notes
* Call history
* Mail accounts
* YouTube bookmarks
* SMS messages
* Saved suggestion corrections (these are saved automatically as you reject
suggested corrections)
* Camera roll (photos and screen shots taken by the iPhone)
* Voicemail token (this is not the Voicemail password, but is used for
validation when connecting. This is only restored to a phone with the same
phone number on the SIM card.)
* Web clips
* Network settings (saved wifi spots, VPN settings, network preferences)
* Paired Bluetooth devices (which can only be used if restored to the same
phone that did the backup)
* Keychain (this includes email account passwords, Wi-Fi passwords, and
passwords you enter into websites and some other applications. The keychain can
only be restored from backup to the same iPhone or iPod touch. If you are
restoring to a new device, you will need to fill in these passwords again.)
With iPhone 2.0 and later
* Managed Configurations/Profiles
* List of External Sync Sources (Mobile Me, Exchange ActiveSync)
* Microsoft Exchange account configurations
* Nike+iPod saved workouts and settings
* App Store Application data (except the Application itself, its tmp and Caches folder).

Query all Employees Elements without effective date

Hi,
I need to make a query shows a list of employees with their elements without using the effective date,
because when we use the periods and effective dates the suspended assignments will not be shown in the report ....
Also it should not be related to Payroll processing ! simply Employee name or number and what element he has
Ex:
Emp# Element Value
10002 Basic Salary 6200
10002 Housing Allowance 2500
10002 Mobile Allowance 300
10452 Basic Salary 10000
10452 Hou........................ etc
Even if this employee is suspended or not included in the Payroll Process ...
Please Help....
Regards

Hi ,
Thank you for your fast reply ...
I want to report all basic allowances or benefits which is given to each employee while hiring him, for all employees...
I want to report it as fixed values even if it is not processed this month ..
Basic Allowances like:
1. Basic Salary.
2. Housing.
3. Transportation.
4. Food.
5. Mobile.
For example:
John is a new employee joined our Company as a manager, then Our Payroll unit entered his Salary and related elements to be paid monthly !
Now we need to have a report shows all employees with their Allowances, without looking in the payroll run or the assignment status...
Our HR Dept. needs to review all salaries and allowances.

on my page Level one , I have two fields, Field A is display control field, Field B is Relate field.

If effdt is at level 0 that means that your component is effective dated.Yes, it have effdt on level 0, do you meant since this the component can handle

You need to use the include history button.For what? , if not including the history button , what will happen?

Hello Sathish,
Start from here: [Data Transfer from SAP ECC (Download)|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm60/helpdata/en/51/62431b7b3511d3ad650000e8a5bd28/content.htm] The help document gives you the steps required. You can also see the [Master Guide |https://service.sap.com/~sapdownload/011000358700001398312008E/MG_CRM2007V2.pdf]or [Customizing Replication Guide|http://help.sap.com/bp_crmv250/CRM_DE/BBLibrary/Documentation/B09_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_US.doc] for similar configuration information.
Essentially after you download the pricing related customizing data from ECC into CRM, you have to download the conditions. the standard conditions get downloaded without any issues since the download adapters are defined already. However, for downloading custom conditions in ECC, you have to do further configuration. You have to define the adapter objects and do the initial download of those conditions. Such an information is available in the [Master data and Transaction data Replication Guide|http://help.sap.com/bp_crmv250/CRM_DE/BBLibrary/Documentation/C03_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_US.doc].

Significance of pricing date and delivery date.

Hello guys,
    Can any one explain the significance of pricing date field in
             1) Sales order
             2)Details screen of Condition type .in v/06 screen
             3) Copy controls.
Regards,
k.Vivek

Dear K.Vivek,
http://sap-img.com/sd013.htm
Pricing date based on delivery date
Used transaction VOV8.
This configuration is by order type.
There is a field called proposal for pricing date.
There you can select pricing date as requested delivery date.
A - Proposed pricing date based on the requested dlv.date (Header)
This control is set at the document level as oppose to the condition type level (PR00).
That means your other condition types such as surcharges and discounts are also determined using the requested delivery date.
If your requirement is for PR00 to alone to be priced at delivery date then this will not work.
How pricing date is determine in the sales order and billing document? Where is the setting?
The pricing date is proposed based on the setting you make in the Sales document configuration. ( T code : VOV8)
You have a field" Prop.f.pricing date " in the Requested delivery date / pricing date / purchase order date segment.
Then you can choose the follwoing options:
Blank - Indicates the current date as the pricing date
A - Indicates the date based on the requested delivery date
B - Indicates the date based on the order validity start from date
And the pricing in the billing document is copied from thte sales order / Delivery document..
It again depends on the setting u have in the copy control from order - billng or delivery - billing.
In the copy control, in the item settings you have two fields relavant for this.
One is pricing source and the other is pricing type.
The pricing sources are generally the order.   But if you want you can change it to other values mentioned in the drop down,
but this values have no effect if the pricing type is B.
Any other value other than B in the pricing type will take the reference document price mentioned in the pricing source field.
but for the pricing type B. The new price is determined in the billing order.
Hope this will help.
Regards,
Naveen.

Product View - Start and End dates

Hi,
I have a material that is externally procured from a vendor to a location. In product view, I have few purchase requisitions. When i double click on it, it takes me to the details of PR. I am trying to understand what start and end dates of the PR are.
For some PRs, the start and end dates are same but for some there are is some times a day or two and even 3 in some cases.
I am wondering what makes the end date differ from start date.
There is a safety day's supply of 2.5 days
We have a transportation lane with transportation duration 23hrs.
Any of these play any role in the end date delay?

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. The vendor and the receiving location have a transportation lane defined.
What do you mean by the time duration that shows up in the T Lane corresponding to the inforecord?
Here are the times I see in transportation Lane;
Product Specific Transportation lane:
GR processing times (checked) : (No value defined) days
Planning Horizon: 0 days
Partner Horizon: 0 days
Horizon for Expctd receipts: 0 days
Horiz. Fut. Aval. Whse Stck: 0 days
Planned Delivery time: (No value Defined)
Means of Transport
Tsp. duration: 23 hrs
Bucket offset: 0.5
Period factor: 0.5
and no other times defined.
Are any of these effect the delay?
My ECC is EST and the timestream is EST. Should I change the product view (also my own data) to EST or UTC??
I have a product that has no delay between the start and end dates. The difference I see between the one that I am having problem (the start and end dates are apart ( I'm calling it bad one) by atleast a day) with and the one that has no delay(I'm calling this good one) between the start and end dates is the "Planned Delivery time.
The good one has 1 day and the bad one has nothing defined.
Does this make any difference?
Thanks.
