Project release to project close

i have successfully created project and released it and budgeted it and released the budget also.
now what is the step by step procedure for acquiring material on wbs elements and giving actual dates and costs to project and finally completing it?

for acquiring material go to MM transaction ME21N create PO and order material required
then goods receipt material vai MIGO
Actula dates can be given in WBS dates tab - this is to be done manually
Once costs are posted to WBS via the goods receipt you can settle it using CJ88 if you want to settle
You can set status TECO when you have finished your work - no more cost planning to be done
Then you can set status CLSD when all accounting etc for the project has been completed

Scenario-4....Project release

Dear Experts,
For ex:u2026I want to control my Project release.
The projects should allow to release when:
Costplanu2026u2026.completed
Revenue plan u2026u2026completed
Budgetu2026u2026u2026..Provided(Costplan replica).
How I can reach this req:
Is it possible with Userstatus.(plz explain in steps)
Regards
Chandra

I think in your system budget is locked when you REL the WBS / Project.
If I correctly understood than your requirement is that while relesing the project sys pop-up messages that WBS is still not cost / revenue / budget planned.....
This type of customization require ABAP development.
But the same results you can achieve via user status say for ex. activate user status in sequences which allows cost planning / Budget planning /revenue planning & dis allow RELstauts. By the name use staus user gets idea that he has to does cost planning in this status. ( In this case but sys will not direct the user that cost planning has to be done before REL)

Hi,
You check the prerequisites for creating project cycle, they are
1. You have created at least one SAP Solution Manager project of the type Maintenance, Implementation, Template, or Upgrade, and specified which systems you want to use for this project.
2. You have created transport routes between the systems that you specified in SAP Solution Manager (in Customizing for SAP Solution Manager>Scenario-Specific Settings>Change Request Management>Standard Configuration>Transport Management System-->Define Transport Routes for System Landscape).
3. You have provided Change Request Management with your configuration data (transaction SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN>System Landscape>Project Cycle-->Refresh).

Creation of Authorization
In general different users will be given different authorizations based on their role in the orgn.
We create ROLES and assign the Authorization and TCODES for that role, so only that user can have access to those T Codes.
USe SUIM and SU21 T codes for this.
Much of the data in an R/3 system has to be protected so that unauthorized users cannot access it. Therefore the appropriate authorization is required before a user can carry out certain actions in the system. When you log on to the R/3 system, the system checks in the user master record to see which transactions you are authorized to use. An authorization check is implemented for every sensitive transaction.
If you wish to protect a transaction that you have programmed yourself, then you must implement an authorization check.
This means you have to allocate an authorization object in the definition of the transaction.
For example:
program an AUTHORITY-CHECK.
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT <authorization object>
ID <authority field 1> FIELD <field value 1>.
ID <authority field 2> FIELD <field value 2>.
ID <authority-field n> FIELD <field value n>.
The OBJECT parameter specifies the authorization object.
The ID parameter specifies an authorization field (in the authorization object).
The FIELD parameter specifies a value for the authorization field.
The authorization object and its fields have to be suitable for the transaction. In most cases you will be able to use the existing authorization objects to protect your data. But new developments may require that you define new authorization objects and fields.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/52/67167f439b11d1896f0000e8322d00/content.htm
To ensure that a user has the appropriate authorizations when he or she performs an action, users are subject to authorization checks.
Authorization : An authorization enables you to perform a particular activity in the SAP System, based on a set of authorization object field values.
You program the authorization check using the ABAP statement AUTHORITY-CHECK.
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_TRVL_BKS'
ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '02'
ID 'CUSTTYPE' FIELD 'B'.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE E...
ENDIF.
'S_TRVL_BKS' is a auth. object
ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '02' in place 2 you can put 1,2, 3 for change create or display.
The AUTHORITY-CHECK checks whether a user has the appropriate authorization to execute a particular activity.
This Authorization concept is somewhat linked with BASIS people.
As a developer you may not have access to access to SU21 Transaction where you have to define, authorizations, Objects and for nthat object you assign fields and values. Another Tcode is PFCG where you can assign these authrization objects and TCodes for a profile and that profile in turn attached to a particular user.
Take the help of the basis Guy and create and use.

Project Release

Hi all,
My client requirement is, Person A should create project and can change but he should not have authority to release it. once the project A is created, person B must have a look at it, if everything is fine, he must release it not person A. please tell me whether is it possible or not..

Hi,
Yes it can be done.
Create WBS User status for the same. Have two user status, one as QUOT - Quotation and other as ORDR - Order. Set the initial status as QUOT. Give an authozisation key for that user status profile and assign it to User 'B'. Ask your Basis guy to assign the authorization for that user 'B'
For QUOT status, forbid business transaction Release for project Definition / WBS business objects. So when A is working he cant release at all unless the user status is changed. And only B can change the User status to Order and release the WBS.
This will solve your problem.
Thanks,
Kabir

ERM5.3 - Is it possible to make Sub Process & Project/Release non-mandatory

Hi All.
I would like to know whether it is possible to make Sub Process & Project/Release in Create Role Definition section non-mandatory fields?
If so where would I be able to change the config?
Thank you.
Mike Hannie

Dear Mike Hannie,
It is not possible. Project/Release ID and Subprocess are required fields.
The Project or Release ID field allows you to track and filter roles by project or release based on your organizationu2018s requirements.
When you create a role in Enterprise Role Management, the business process you assign to the role is one of the roleu2018s defining attributes and determines which subprocesses you can assign to that role. During the role creation process, the subprocesses available for you to select as role attributes are determined by the business process to which the subprocess is mapped.
Condition group:
A condition group is defined from a set of role attributes (such as a business process, subprocess, functional area, role type, or role name) and is based on role values and conditions. After you create a condition group, the system applies it to a role creation process to override the default role creation process when the criteria from the condition group are met. You can apply multiple condition groups in one role creation process, but you cannot associate multiple processes to one condition group.

Naveen

How to make field key for user fields cant be changed after project release

Dear Expert,
How can we make field key for user fields cannot be changed once we release the project/wbs?
Cheers,
Nies

Do you mean 'field key' in the project profile in SPRo?
I think after a project is created a change in the field key wont affect the fields in CJ20N..
Can you verify?

How to make second phase release when project released?

Hi all,
I'm new to cproject. My issue is second phase (does not has tasks) can not be release when project is released and however first phase which under project directly able to release. Do you have any idea on what cause this problem and how to resolve it?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Chee Boon

Hi
This is Std system behaviour.
Once the Project is released the No 1 Phase is released.
For release of 2nd Phase, there can be two scenarios based on Confg of Phase type
1. For stage gate Config: Once you complete that phase 1, you can release phase 2
2. For w/o Stage Gate method: you can release two phases simultaniously
Check config of PHase types

Archiving and releasing CVI projects

Hi
At my company, we have to release the software code into a version control system.
This is so anybody else can retrieve, modify and rebuild the project, especially when or if I, the creator, is gone.
My question is about NI software versions, both the CVI version and all of the required NI driver versions used to create the project.
The project references many include *.h files in their installed location, usually ..\Program Files\National Instruments\.. etc.
Updating a project relies on the fact that the computer which initially released the build stays in-place, or no NI driver updates occurred.
Building the retrieved project on another computer, therefore, does not work.
So, should my archived/released project copy all driver files [like Nidaqex.h, etc] into a "local" \Include folder, which locks-in that drive version,
or continue to rely on the NI installed folder location?
Accompanying my software release is a companion document called a VD [version document] which fully describes the created environment
required for the initial release. This greatly helps anyone in the future to re-build the project with step-by-step instructions.
If there is any other "white papers" within the NI web-site that would enhance this subject, I would be appreciated to be directed to it.
Scott Youngren

>> "Building the retrieved project on another
computer, therefore, does not work."
Are you sure of your assertion? I continuously switch projects from one computer to another without compiling problems; I also switched during time between PCs with different localization (english vs. italian OS release: it impacts among other things on "program files" directory name) and different OS versions (win2k vs. WinXP) without facing any problem.
IMHO the main hint is to maintain standard SW places when installing NI software on different machines, a fact that permits to switch between them without problems.
A different matter can be the use of non-NI software, for which you will need to investigate on file location for DLLs, include and so on on different machines.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Deception field in Project defination grade out after release of project

Hi Experts,
I am facing one issue in cProject that when I release the project , The description field in project definition becomes grade out, so not able to update the description field . I checked the field setting in global enhancements , it thy are fine.
Could any one help me in this regard?

Hi Shashank,
Never project description gets greyed out after release of project.
This normally happens if field control is activated for that particular field 'Description' with condition 'object is released' fulfilled with 'only display'.

System Staus not set as REL in PD after releasing the project

Hi All,
I am new in SAP PS.Please help me in this issue.
I am working on the IDES System( Sand box).
Issue is as follows:-
Before booking actual cost in activities we need to release the project first.
But i am not able to release the Project definition directly. It is giving error as E:ZSTAT:000.
But i am able to release the WBS Elements underneath that and after that i can confirm the activities and book costs.
But when i am trying to release the PD directly, REL status is set but immediately after saving it gives E:ZSTAT:000 error and again it is in CRT status.
KIndly help me in setting the status.
What can be the issues?

The error depicted is not a standard SAP error. Its a customized error that has been maintained via validation.
Validations work at the time of 'Save', therefore the error occurs when you save and not when you release. Execute OPSI and verify the validation condition that is causing this error.
Once you are able to determine and understand the condition that is causing the error you will be able to fulfill it or remove the validation altogether (although this is not recommended).

Ammar

Segregating Releasing of Projects

Hi
Does anyone know of a way to segregate the authorisations/user access of releasing a project (at project definition level)? We have an audit requirement to segregate this action.
I had thought that using a user status profile would allow this segregation but this does not prevent the end user changing the system profile (it only prevents the user changing the user status).
Thanks

hi acorn,
hmmmm, seems you're right.. -will check again..
anyway you can however prevent/disallow release (system status) based on user status. (meaning once a certain status is set, release is not longer possible) and you can create authorization for setting of user status..
kindly revert if this wont work for you..
regards
