Project Management and Resource Management Reporting Views

I am wondering if anyone would have and is willing to share some documentation they may have put together around reporting views related to Project Management and Resource Management modules. We are installing the projects suite and I have never done custom reporting out of these modules and would be interested in feedback or documentation anyone may have related to these or any offer of assistance or direction in designing the reporting views.
Thank you in advance!
Matt

hello Tony,
What I can say. Maybe you should use SAP PPM as a operational Project Management tool and integrate it with WBS elements and projects in SAP PS. Probably it will be the best solution for you.
The second way is to use a second project structure for project management as you wrote, with different number of this project. So you will have 2 structures one for actual posting of costs and the second for rest management needs and statistical posting of costs. Probably you will need CO substitution for posting of costs to post costs on these 2 structures.
There will be many other conditions to get right solution but I think this 2 ways are possible.

Issue with Cash Management and liquidity forecast report

Hello folks,
I am working with cash management and liquidity forecast reports. While running the report for Cash management, as I drill down to planning levels and induvidual GL accounts for the bank accounts, the figures for GL acounts in report does not tally with actual GL balances. As I drill down to last level, it shows the GL balance display which is different from the values in the report. Can anyone tell me why it does not pick up certain values. I find that certain document type "DZ" values are not picked up by the report. Any suggestions?
Also, I would like to know is there any way to cross check the values in Liquidity forecast report for sales orders, purchase orders and requisitons through any other report in MM and SD. Would appreciate if someone can respond to mu query.
Thanks in advance,
-NK-

In se38, look for programs starting with RFFD*; there are a few for reconciliation of cash management with SD/MM/GL etc.

Activate the TRM (Task and Resource Management)

Could you tell me where to activate the TRM (Task and Resource Management) in WM?

Hi Stefanie,
First, you create the TRM site in:

You can assign your TRM site to you warehouse number here:
SPRO>Logistics Execution>Warehouse Management>Interfaces>Task and Resource Management>Assign Site
And you can also activate/deactivate the interface WM-TRM for some Source Storage Types / Destination Storage Types / Movement Type:
SPRO>Logistics Execution>Warehouse Management>Interfaces>Task and Resource Management>Control WMS-TRM Interface for Transfer Orders
Then, you continue with the rest of TRM customizing work.
Hope this will be helpful for you.

Content Distributor, deployment Manager and resource services are dead

Hi,
I am using Fast ESP 5.3 product single node in a window environment. Recently during a SAM patch installation I have restarted ESP and post that I have found below three services status as N/A in System Overview. Even the server was restarted
due to window patching. As these services are down I am unable to create any collection neither am I able to publish any search profile.
Content Distributor
deployment Manager
and resource services
Strangely in nctrl status all services are displayed as Running.
These are the work around I have tried:
killed processes from Task manager
Restarted ESP
So is there any possible way to bring these services up.
With Regards,
Santanu Mishra

With reboot of the server the issue got resolved....

The Question about stock transfer between HU-Management and WM-Management

Hi,
There is a scenario about stock transfer between HU-Management and WM-Management storage location. I use transaction MB1B , movement type 313 , 315. After Good issue from WM-management storage location, outbound delivery will genarated, then Pack, Create/Confirm TO, at last post goods issue for the outboud delivery. But when i do movement type 315, there is a warning message "Data of preceding document was not transmitted", and from the F1 help i find this system reponse "You can maintain an indicator that makes information about preceding documents in this delivery available under delivery type in Customizing. For some characteristics of this indicator, the type of preceding document and the related document and item numbers must be transmitted to delivery creation. At least one of these parameters is missing.".
So, My questions are:

What else SCE couldn't do without Collection manager and Subscriber Manager for SCE?

Can we still monitor the traffic and control the subscriber even we do not have any Collection manager and Subscriber Manager? with SCE alone couldn't analysis or control the traffic?

Hi,
Without CM you can not generate reports based on RDR collection process. For example if you dont have Collection Manager you can not generate reports that are predefined on the SCA Reporter or insight. Only you can do is you can poll SNMP counters/values by a s/w and you can graph them, but it is not suitable and not covers the all data that SCE collects and reports. And for the SM side if you want to communicate with a policy/external server you really need an SM, also you can use its internal Quota manager to count quota.

Working with version management and promotion management best practices BO 4.1

Hi Experts
I wondered if anybody knows if there is a document or something about best practices to work with the version management and promotion management in BO 4.1?
Our Environment includes two servers. The first one is our development and test server. The second server is our prod system.
Now on the dev server we have basically two folders called dev and test. We control access to them with a right system based on the folder structure.
My question now is how you would work in this scenario (third server is not an option). Main target is to have as few reports as possible. Therefore we try to work with the version management system and only have one version of each report in the dev folder of the cms. But this is where problems start. Sometimes the newest version is not the version we want to publish to the test folder or even prod server.
How would you publish the report to the other folder? Make a copy of the concerned report (transport to the same system via promotion management is not possible). Also how would you use the version management in regards to the folder structure? Only use version management in dev folder and export reports to test folder (out of vms control) or also use vms in test folder and how would that work?
Further more I’d be interested in learning best practices with promotion management. I found out that the promotion of a report that doesn’t exist in prod doesn’t make any problems. But as soon as an older version already exists there is only partial success and the prod folder gets renamed to “test”.
Any suggestions on how to handle these problems?
Thank you and regards
Lars

Thank you for your answer.
So you are basically proposing to work with the vms in the dev folder and publish the desired version to the test folder. And the test folder is out of version control in this scenario if I understood you correctly (like simple data storage)?
And how would you suggest promoting reports to the prod system? Simply by promoting the
desired version from dev folder directly to prod? This would probably lead to inconsistence because we would need to promote from dev system to test and dev to prod instead of promoting a straight line from dev over test to prod. Furthermore it would not solve the problem of the promoting result itself (A new folder called dev will be generated in prod but the report gets promoted to the prod folder if there was no report before).
Thank you for the link. I came across this page just a few days ago and found also lots
of other tutorials and papers describing the basic promoting process. The promoting process in general is clear to me but I wondered if it is possible to change some parameters to prevent folder renaming for example.
Regards
Lars

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.

Q&A db for warehouse management and inventory management

Hello Everybody,
i read on the help.sap website that standard as well as industry specific versions of Q&A db are available. but the website doesnt say where. i searched a lot but the links dont lead to the actual Q&A db.
i would like to request you to kindly share the Q&A db for inventory management and warehouse management with me as i need it for preparing the AS IS documentation.(preferably automotive industry but if not then even standard Q&A db is fine).
thanks a lot.
sapman.

Now QADB will not help to map the clinets requirement. Instead of QADB get AS IS information form Coreusers... thats best practice now....
Go through www.sap-img.com for further details...
