Project Code and Timesheets

Hi,
We have a question about the Project Code legibility in the Timesheets Entry screen in OTL. Can the Project Field be extended to display the project code and the project name?
Can we do this without customisation?
Thanks,
V

I think, Project name get displayed after project is selected.
Do you want to do something different.
thanks,
Manish

Discussion About The Use Of Project Server 2013 Timesheet Custom Billing Categories (Post SP1 and April 2014 CU Install)

In support of a consulting company using timesheet custom billing categories to designate project time as billable onsite, billable offsite, and non-billable, I've encountered a series of issues which appear to be associated with the custom billing category
timesheet lines. These issues cause timesheet users to get frustrated, and contribute to misalignment between project actuals and timesheet actuals. We're in Single Entry Mode, no pre-population, SP1 and April 2014 CU Installed.
I'll enumerate the issues here and pose the question to the community as to whether others are experiencing any/all of these things, and if so, ask if any workarounds have been discovered. We're working with Microsoft to validate these independently,
but I am posing the questions to the community to gather additional information, and hopefully save some folks time in troubleshooting similar issues.
1.When time is entered on an assignment into timesheet lines of multiple billing categories, only time entered since the last save is getting saved and ultimately sent, on timesheet submit, to the approval center. Although the previously entered and
saved time appears in the application interface when the timesheet is re-opened, only data since last save is actually saving to the server or processing through the approval center. We believe this is the primary cause for timesheet and project actuals
being out of alignment.
2."_ Error Loading". When assignments are added, deleted, or changed after a timesheet has been created, standard timesheet lines are added, deleted or changed (i.e. synchronize) with the assignments. However, for custom billing category
timesheet lines, they do not change when the assignments change, and they aren’t removed if the assignment is removed. We believe this causes secondary errors, like the "_Error Loading" (and others as will be described below).
3.When a timesheet with time in a non-standard billing category is deleted and recreated, time is arbitrarily moved to standard timesheet lines for the same assignment. If the task assignment is subsequently removed, the timesheet line causes the timesheet
to break.
4."Error Communicating with Server". When trying to submit a timesheet, a pop-up box appears indicating that there is an error communicating with the server. This error appears because a timesheet line is no longer associated with a project.
In order to submit the timesheet the orphaned timesheet line must be identified and manually removed. One technique we found which helps to identify an orphaned timesheet line is to select a task and submit task progress. Repeat for all timesheet lines until
you get an error. The timesheet line(s) with the error can be manually removed from the timesheet, fixing the error.
5. Unable to Open Specific Timesheets without Error. There are certain scenarios when the "Remove Task" feature is used or an assignment is otherwise removed after creation of a timesheet with custom billing category lines, which causes orphaned
timesheet lines. These orphaned lines can cause issues when trying to open a timesheet. The issue can appear when timesheets are in progress in multiple periods. In the problematic scenario, time is entered and submitted in one period and subsequently
the task is 'removed' from another period before the PM processes the first approval request. Process governance can certainly help here, but improvement in the way synchronization occurs between project assignments and custom billing category timesheet lines
would be great. The error can often be resolved by re-adding the assignment for the problematic timesheet user to the project (which creates a new assignment), and then allows you to open the timesheet. Then time can be moved from the old timesheet
line to the new timesheet line, and the old one can be removed.
In 4 and 5, sometimes we can't open a timesheet without error, and other times we can open it but not submit it. We are not 100% clear on all the different causes for each. Each of these issues are suspected to be contributing the the misalignment of
data between project actuals and timesheets, which can be a real problem for external projects for which time collected through timesheets are being used to generate invoices.
Although these may seem like separate issues, warranting separate questions, I decided to post them together because they all seem to be related to synchronization of project assignments and timesheet lines for custom billing categories.
Any thoughts or suggestions from the community would be appreciated.
Best regards,
Justin

There are many causes for each of the errors mention. It would be best to put one issue to the forum at a time. For example, some of these issues occur then tasks are deleted from projects but a timesheet has been submitted. Depending
on the scenario, some of these issues have been fixed with the latest service pack.
Other issues are due to bad scheduling habits with the project managers and so first determining what they have done can help resolve some the issues.
_error Loading, is because something is NULL in the data and the jave is choking when it build the form. Again, these may be because of delete tasks, resources, projects or someone doing copying and pasting of rows.
cheers!
PS. Train your PM to not COPY and PASTE rows in project schedules. It can be done, but it can create problems. There are over 500 fields and some have unique data and the copy paste creates havic.

Project code based Sales Order and Purchase Order - Item wise Report

Dear all,
Scenario:
We are doing business based on Projects. So, for every Sales , Project code is created and Sales order is booked with Project code and subsequently Purchase Order is booked with Project code. (Note:Some cases, few items might not be purchased since stock is available.)
We want report like
SO Project code
SO Posting date
SO Sales Employee
SO Customer Name
SO Item code
SO Quantity
SO Unit price
SO Row Total
PO Project code
PO Posting date
PO Sales Employee
PO Customer Name

PO Quantity
PO Unit price
PO Row Total
*SO line item and PO line item for same project should be parallel , that is important and challenge (certain cases, item in SO might not be in PO, for such cases Blank field should appear for PO Item code.)
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Dwarak.

Hi Dwarak.......
Your Report is right but a small change you have to make Left join RDR1 with POR1........
Try this.......
SELECT T0.PrjCode, T1.Project, T0.PrjName, T1.DocNum, T1.DocDate, T1.CardName, T2.ItemCode, T2.Dscription, T2.Quantity, T2.Price, T2.LineTotal, T3.Project, T4.ItemCode, T4.Dscription, T4.Quantity, T4.Price, T4.LineTotal FROM OPRJ T0 INNER JOIN ORDR T1 ON T0.PrjCode = T1.Project INNER JOIN RDR1 T2 ON T1.DocEntry = T2.DocEntry LEFT JOIN OPOR T3 ON T0.PrjCode = T3.Project LEFT OUTER JOIN POR1 T4 ON T3.DocEntry = T4.DocEntry AND T2.ITEMCODE = T4.ITEMCODE INNER JOIN OITM T5 ON T2.ItemCode = T5.ItemCode WHERE T0.PrjCode ='[%0]' AND
T5.ItmsGrpCod in ('108', '110') GROUP BY T0.PrjCode, T1.Project, T0.PrjName, T1.DocNum, T1.DocDate, T1.CardName, T2.ItemCode, T2.Dscription, T2.Quantity, T2.Price, T2.LineTotal, T3.Project, T4.ItemCode, T4.Dscription, T4.Quantity, T4.Price, T4.LineTotal

Freight - Marketing Documents Assign a Project Code

Hi All,
I have a customer that uses project codes and profit center functionality in SAP Business One. They flag transactions to record the relevant project codes and profit centers for extended reporting requirements. So far we have had no issues but we have encountered one lack in functionality which I can't seem to configure in SAP Business One. The issue is that we cannot assign a project code when recording additional charges / freight during a marekting document in SAP Business One. However you are able to assign a profit center? Is this a limitation of the product and if so will this be addressed in future versions? Does anybody know?
Any feedback / ideas will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Andre Pienaar

Hi
Whole Marketing Document can be assigned to project, even freight is having separate profit center.
If u want to include more features in B1 pls post ur queries here:

Project Code search

I have a client using Project codes with Journal Vouchers / JE.
Is there a easier way to search for Project codes and not just scrolling through it. they have lots of them and it is very time consuming.
Thanks

Hi,
I am not sure about the business scenario or how extensively the project codes are used so may be my suggestion would be helpful or not.
If you check that the Project Code appear in the Drop Down in alphabetical order of the Project Name.
You can as a workaround use the Numbers ie. 1, 2 etc in front of the Project Name for the maximum used Project Codes so that these appear on the top of the drop down list of the Project Code.

Project Code for Variables

Hello All,
I am able to use Variables in procedures and open tools ,interfaces etc. Variables #VariableName works well. But I was reading that the standard is to use #ProjectCode.VariableName .
Whenever we try to use #ProjectCode.VariableName our procedures,open tools,etc fails.
When a project is created the Code is the Project Code right ? or is it some other value.
- Henry.

As Keith have already told you that ODI automatically . substitutes #VariableName with #ProjectCode.VariableName.
You would need to use the #VariableName in the interface too so that ODI can automatically interpret it and applies the required value for it.
The reason why ODI can throw #ProjectCode.VariableName invalid character is that , since ODI does not find any variable with this name #ProjectCode.VariableName so it does not applies the project code and interpret it and so its still a varaible in the sql and oracle throws the error Invalid Character so you need to use the #Variable so ODI can apply the necessary suffix.
But there are some places where you would need to use the variable with project code . During Evalute Variable when you evaluating variable with another variable you would need to use the
#ProjectCode.VariableName format.

Report based on project codes

Dear all,
I have a number of projects in our system with different codes and I would like to produce a report with the various Business Partners (BPs) with their different account balances displayed as per the various projects.
This is very important because a BP can have more than one project code assigned to them .
I have tried the Query Generator but this is not working for me since the query generates aggregated values of account balances rather than separated balances as per a specific project code.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Davis M Onsakia

Hi
Please Check if the following solution work for u
in SAP B1 2007 PL 08
In most of financial report there is a tab named expansion press it cheek the project code and select the project code or range of project code and also BP u will get transaction related only to the selected BP and selected project Code .
please let me know if it works
I will help you if it does not work .

im having problems in the Query Generator.
I cannot get the Debit and Credit to total up and cannot seem to group by Project Code.
Any help in this matter, would be appreciated.

the Query is as follows:-
SELECT T0.TransId, T1.Segment_0, T1.Segment_1, T1.Segment_2, T1.AcctName, T0.RefDate, T0.Debit, T0.Credit, T0.Project FROM JDT1 T0 INNER JOIN OACT T1 ON T0.Account = T1.AcctCode WHERE T0.RefDate >= '[%0]' and T0.RefDate <= '[%1]' and T1.Segment_0 >'[%2]' and T0.Project Like '%%_%%'
I would like to be able to group by Project Code and have the total amount for the Project.

Profit center and project code report

Hello all,
My customer needs a report showing the profit centers and project codes that appear on AP and AR invoices.
It would be something like:
Project Profit Center Profit Loss Difference
and showing the totals for each different project.
Is this possible?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Pedro Santos

Hello Gordon,
Yes, I think a query report is enough.
What the customer wants is to control the profits/costs in each project.
They will add the project code to every sales and purchase invoices and the profit centers.
Then they need to see which profit centers are with more gain or loss inside the projects.
Do you need more information?

How to block reusage of archived Project definition and WBS element numbers

Dear All,
We have archived our projects using the TC SARA and the Project definition and WBS elements numbers no more exist in tables PROJ and PRPS etc.. When I now try to create a new project, the system proposes the next open number or allows to enter a number which is the same as one of the archived projects. But in our organization we cannot reuse the Project definition and WBS element numbers (even if it is archived) as a rule.
Can anybody guide me what are the possibilities to block or avoid the reusage of the numbers of archived project definition and WBS elements in a fool-proof way?
Thanks and regards

One Workaround:
Use T code OPSJ and lock the project coding mask. Doing this you can not use this mask any more.
But you want to continue using the mask but with different numbers. Not sure how this can be acheived. lets wait for others view

How do I move just a single clip in the project file and then convert that into an Mp4 format?

Dear Assistance,
I have a project file open.
At the bottom of the screen there is a horizontal film strip of images. I have cut the images into certain segments.
I want to select one single segment (about 1 min long) and convert only that selected segment into a mp4 format?
Kindly inform me how the best way to go about doing that is.
Thank you,
Ben
[email protected]

In the sequence you will see the time code and a bar in line with it.
At the end of all your edited clips in the sequence you will find that the bar ends, this bar defines the work area.
Drag each end of the work area bar so it covers only the clip you want to export.
The select the exporter and select the preset you want and before you start the export where it says whole sequence change this to work area
Then change the default name and location to whatever you want and start the export, job done
