Project Schedule Status Based on Milestore

Hi All,
Our client want to track the project schedule/time status (in Project Center using custom filed and graphical indicators) based on the milestones defined in the project. Is it possible to have the formula which can give the project status based on project
milestones.
Thanks in advance, Taj

Hi Taj,
You could for example have a project Enterprise custom field (so it can be displayed as a graphical indicator in the Project Center views) that gives the % of complete milestones versus total number of milestones. Depending on the % value, you could disply
a green/yellow/red indicator.
For sure there is a simpler way to do that but here is what I found:
Create a task field (using
this method) that returns 1 for every milestone
Create another task field that returns 1 for every complete milestone
Create a project field that calculate the % based on the 2 above fields
Note also that MS Project 2013 proposed a milestone report in the new report feature.
Be aware that this type of indicator (like milestones trend analysis) DO NOT give any relevant information about project completion but only about milestones completion. I mean that a single milestone can require a huge amount of work whereas another one
could just be a 1h work document writing.
Hope this helps.

MSPS 2013 - related a document to the project tasks - Icon is not visible in project schedule

When adding a document (related Items) to the project tasks in a project schedule at the task does not see the icon of the document.
Although the icon issue or risk when binding is visible.
And the icon is also seen in the "Projects Center"

Maybe someone know why it don't works?

Anyone can reproduce this steps on Project Server 2013:
* Upload document to project site document library
* Open project plan for editing in pwa, add to any task related item – uploaded in previous step document
* Save and publish project
Than check in project schedule and project center – icon associated document to task and project.

SSM 7.0 - Schedule status calculation of initiatives

Hi,
Does anybody know how SSM calculate the schedule status of initiatives?
For example:
- 1 initiative (I1) with "Rule based on status" with 2 milestones (M1 and M2).
- M1 finished before target end date, completion = 100% and importance = high.
- M2 is delayed, completion = 50% and importance = low.
Status (traffic lights) obtained are:
- I1 = red.
- M1 = green.
- M2 = red.
M2 has a low importance. M1 (high) is much more important that M2, but the I1 is red.
I would like to know which elements SSM take into account in order to calculate the schedule status of the initiative and what is the calculation.
Does SSM consider percent completion, importance and dates of M1 and M2?
Are there any rules?
How SSM weights these elements to calculate the schedule status result?
Kind regards,
Santiago

Santiago,
Unlike KPIs, Initiatives don't have any calculation functionality. The status of an Initiative is straight-based off the schedule. If one part is behind on the schedule, the whole Initiative's status is behind.
Part of the reason for using Comments, associated with the Initiative, is to be able to provide an explanation or insight. That way, the comments would explain that, using your example, that the important first milestone was completed ahead of schedule, though the second milestone, which doesn't share the same importance, has experienced a delay.
You also have the option of manually determining the status of an Initiative and could take into account those calculations and score it yourself.

Bob

Project Schedule

When the project schedule is later than planned schedule.
How to control?
How can we give a right information to buyer and production.
Is that possible to have two schedules , "one is original plan, another is the reschedule plan from the up-to-date plan"?
We want two plans and distinguish if the project delays?
Tarun Kapur

Hi,
In your case, what i understand you would like to know, the project is going as per the schedule or any delay.
In that case, you can create a project version in (T code 72 and Save the veriosn.
In CN71, you can open the project and give the version key and execute the project and select the choose field wherein you get details like. ..like dates, actual work, budget and other details .
Then you can comapare the dates from created status,relased and as on date status.

Where we check the Project closing status?T.code for List of Closing Projec

Dear Guru's,
Where can we check the Project closing status? Can we change the closing status if want to do some modification, and what is the transaction code that we to view the list of closing project.
Regards,
Kalyan

1.You can find the project status ( all the status ) in any project maintenance transaction for ex. Run Cj20n > Open you project> on the basic data tab you will find the project status.
( If you want to see the status of other PS oject than click on that object, similarly you will get the status of that object on Basic data tab. )
2.Yes you can change the closing status of proejct for midification. path is clickon the object for which you want to change the closed object > Edit> Status--> Close --> Undo.
3.For the list of Project status go to CN41
on the projectno. input line click on multiple selection--> give the proejct no. list for which you wanted to see the status. -->enter --> Excute.
Report will open in screen. in that report go to toolbar and click on 'choose filed' button.(F5) -->one pop up window will open -->right handside scroll down in that window >select 'status' field and move it to left side>enter
project status will be shown against you project list. you can verify the same in maintenance txn.
If you have activated user status the same will also get populated.
You can downlaod the same in Excle file path is : Evaluation menu>export>save to file. ( via filtering in Excle you call do all the analysis realted to project status how amny are in clised status etc. )

Short Dump while using BAPI_PS_PRECOMMIT to set Project Definition Status

Hi All,
I am getting a short dump while using BAPI_PS_PRECOMMIT for setting the Project Definition status..
The requirement is to create a Project Definition and then set its status to REL from CRTD. For this purpose i am using the BAPI's in the following sequence :
1. BAPI_PS_INITIALIZATION
2. BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN
3. BAPI_BUS2001_SET_STATUS
4. BAPI_PS_PRECOMMIT
5. BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
The Proj Def creation is happening successfully in step2. Interestingly, when I debug the program and stop at PRECOMMIT BAPI the program does not give a dump. I have also tried to give COMMIT WORK / WAIT FOR n SECONDS after BAPI_BUS2001_SET_STATUS, to give BAPI sometime for DB update but nothing seems to be a permanent solution.
Please give your views on a solution for this problem..
Thanks & Regards,
Somil

Scheduled Status in Message Monitoring

Hi All,
We have a scenario from DB- DB using Java Proxies. The Message interfaces are defined as Asynchornously with EO mode.
Usually the sender channel picks data and tirggers Java Proxy. Proxy process all records and send the status back to sender in 5 mins.
But when I started multiple interfaces at the same time, I observe that one interface is taking 15 min and while that interface is in processing state, the other interface which started at that time are also in Scheduled status. But the sender channel picks data for every 5 mins, which is creating duplicate records.
The interfaces which are in Scheduled status are getting processed only after that interface ( taking 15 min) gets processed.
Why is this dependency on other interfaces and is there any way to avoid this dependency?
Please suggest.
Regards,
Srini

you can do queue/message prioritization.
but I suggest to use one status field in DB, when you are polling DB to select records , immidiately change staus to picked and after processing successfully change it to processed.

Proxy messages are stucked in SMQ2 as scheduled status

Hi,
I am doing File(FCC) >PI 7.0>ABAP proxy. (ECC) Scenario.
Once i pick and process the file, the resultant message is updating the table in ECC through ABAP proxy. These messages are getting stucked in queues (SMQ2) in ECC. My message is not having much data , it is very less in size.
And there is no messages in Queue.
I register all queues in SMQR in PI and ECC.
Does I need to do any activity in ECC or PI? What could be a problem. Please suggest .
Thanks

Error invoking Package Schedule Status in BPC 5.1

Hi BPC Gurus,
We are on BPC 5.1 system and have been live since Apr 2008. We schedule all our Data Manager jobs (Import packages and other packages) every month using the Package Schedule status option under eData.
We were performing a clean-up of the older job entries on this screen by choosing the "Delete Job" option in Package Schedule Status screen.
A few of them got successfully deleted but then we got the below error.
"(RunQueryToServer)(GetScheduleList) An error occurred while getting a schedule list. The system cannot find the file specified."
We are now getting this error even if we try to bring up the Package Schedule Status screen.
Could you pls. advise if anybody has seen this issue and what was the resolution.
We are seeing this issue in our Production environment so your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Abhay Shanbhag

We had the same problem with the installation I'm working on right now.
In our case, I went into the SQL Server database for my application set and looked at the entries in tblSchedule. There were entries in there that were very strange in the "CreateTime" field. Dates like "2008-43-30 <time>".
We cleared out the records in tblSchedule and this solved the problem.
Hope this helps,
Jason

Thanks in advance
Amit Shedge

Hi,
First we check the status of Message
a) db2 => select count(*) COUNT, status from sap<sid>db.bc_msg group by status
COUNT STATUS
110        DLVD
641623   NDLV
2 record(s) selected.
Then we update the status of Message to Failed
b) UPDATE BC_MSG SET STATUS='FAIL' WHERE STATUS IN ('DLNG', 'TBDL', 'WAIT', 'HOLD', 'NDLV') AND SENT_RECV_TIME <= '2014-22-03 00:00:00'
c)
select count(*) COUNT, status from sap<sid>db.bc_msg group by status
COUNT STATUS
183      DLVD
641623 FAIL
d) Then we started the Standard deletion Job in NWA
db2 => SELECT COUNT(*), STATUS FROM SAP<sid>DB.BC_MSG GROUP BY STATUS
1 STATUS

Send Commit to message stuck in "Message Scheduled" status

Hello,
I generated some messages using ABAP Proxy. However, the commit work never happened in the program that created the message. Now these messages are stuck in "Message Scheduled" status. How can I push the message forward. Can I trigger a commit? If so, how?
Regards
Cerish

Hi Cerish,
Are you getting this status in the XI ? If so, go to Queue Monitor and try to activate the same.
/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/11/29/xi-how-to-re-process-failed-xi-messages-automatically
Also check the SXMB_MONI of Application System(R/3) if you have a access about is proxy message is executed or not .
If the status is restart not possible, then you need to reprocess that.
Hope this helps,

XML Messages in "Scheduled" status

Hi all,
The case is at ERP side running transaction SXMB_MONI, some XML messages from XI to ERP are found in "Scheduled" status. Around the same time, siimilar messages using same receiver interface are processed successfully. When we manual restart the "Scheduled" message, there will be an entry in READY status at inbound queue and we have to unlock the queue. After that, the message will be processed successfully.
Here are my questions:
(1) Why some messages in "Scheduled" status but similar messages are processed successfully?
(2) Is there any alert or notification mechanism that we can setup instead of running transaction SXMB_MONI manually?
(3) Is manual restart XML message a proper way to handle those scheduled message? Any way to automatically handle this message in ERP side?
Thanks in advance.

Donald,
Here are the answers to ur questions.
(1) Why some messages in "Scheduled" status but similar messages are processed successfully?
Some times the queues get stuck for various reasons. one msg will cause bottleneck for all other msgs behind it. there is no proper reason why this happens, however if it happens regularly then u will have to give it a thought.
(2) Is there any alert or notification mechanism that we can setup instead of running transaction SXMB_MONI manually?
Well, if the msgs r in the scheduled state then NO.
(3) Is manual restart XML message a proper way to handle those scheduled message? Any way to automatically handle this message in ERP side?
Manual restart is not the best way to handle msgs bcause you might loose track/ some msgs might error out together causing issues. (that has happend to us). its tough to keep track if that is the case and if its critical from business point of view.
If it is going out of R/3 then may be you can configure jobs to push the data periodically.

Proxy messgs on ECC in scheduled status - released for processing (PI 7.1)

Hi guys,
I have set up a scenario (ABAP Proxy(ECC)->(using WS adapter)PI7.1->SOAP) and the outbound messages on the ECC remain in the scheduled status (green flag) saying "Released for processing (WS)". Why? Must there be some processing be executed? Manual? Or job?
Any help on this appreciated, Olian

Hi Olian
Try applying the solution in the SAP note #1129614 SP2: WSRM sequences process only the first 3 messages.
