Project System Budget Control against Material Reservation

hi all
I need to control project system budget to stop/control creation of material reservation if budget is exceeded. I know that standard SAP PS budget availability control configuration could not handle material reservation.
Will SAP Funds Management do the trick? any insight is greatly appreciated.
Thansk,
Tony

Authorization control on material reservation creation and change (MB21 & M

Hi Friends
Please help me to find a solution on Authorization control on material reservation creation and change (MB21 & MB23).
Client looking for a control over end user on those T.Code s but not at T.Code level;
Client looking for control either based on "Storage location" and/or u201CProduct hierarchyu201D.
More specifically, user A and B both can Create/Change MR but user A only can do it for the MR which related to storage location say YY while B authorized for storage location ZZ
Thanks in advance.

Hello Partha,
Only available Standard SAP Authorization Objects, related to Reservations, are M_MRES_BWA (Reservations: Movement Type) & M_MRES_WWA (Reservations: Plant) where you can maintain authorizations based on Movement Type & Plant respectively and hence seggested enhancement.
You can use Tcode-SUIM to search for Basis authorization details i.e. Roles defined for specific transaction/authorization object / profiles.
Revert if any further info required.

hi Paul,
My overall budget is 100000 the project is been planned on the overall basis and not on annual basis
my assigned value in tcode Cj30 is 98000 so i have only 2000 remaining But in information system tcode s_alr_87013558 it is showing me that mine assigned value is only 70000 and remaining is 30000 but however i could not make any purchase req or any services activity even though i have 30000.
What is this Assigned Values is there any report for me to see this assigned values.
The solution which i did is in tcode cjbw i have deactivated the availability control for the project. Now the 30000 which was available it is absorbing and my problem is now solved but now this available budget is also going in minus values how can i stop this.
How Again can i Reactivate the availability control. In my budget profile (OPS9) i have put availability control status as 1 (activate at the time of budget allocation)
And also can u give me the ps community name.

Abraham

Project system: Budget exceeded issue.

Dear Sir or Madam,
This issue is related to project system. We have overall budget and annual budget. If annual budget in a year is exhausted is it possible to make the system look at overall budget since there are sufficient funds in overall budget.
Thanks
Joseph

Hello Joseph,
Unfortunately not. You may however change the assigned budget profile so that the overall budget is
checked (transaction OPS9->tab "Availability Control->flag the field "overall") and rebuild availability control of the project in transaction CJBN afterwards.
But there is definitely no "combination" of both possible.

Project system Budget Needs to be Doubled

Hi All,
I am facing a issue in project system where we have to double our budget, if we need to run a settlement in the system.
For a example, if we have a budget of 100,000 and that is allocated to TWO sub WBS Elements as 50,000 each and when we want to run the settlement run it informs us that the budget is exceeded. So if we need to get the settlement run we have to allocate additional budget to the main WBS Element. But when we checked all the Purchases for the respective WBS, we find that the budget is not exceeded, but the settlement is checking for budget again in the main WBS Element.
This is the way our consultants have configured this and now they are no more in the company. Can any one ex-plane how we can fix this so that we don't need to allocate more budget to the main WBS Element.
Regards
Ruchendra

Hi Ruchendra,
Have you checked the settlement rule ..It might be receiver as higher level wbs-element in lower level wbs-element.
For example:-
You maintained two 2nd level wbs-element below 1st level wbs with 50000 budget each.
Now you consumed budget and cost inc rued.
Now while settlement this cost moves to higher level wbs-elemnt bcoz of settlement rule.
Thats why it needs budget to cover up that cost.
Check this ..It might help you.
Thanks

What is project systems are related to fico

hi sap gurus anybody clesrly tell me about project systems are related to fico , and what are the relations to these sap fico and ps?
regards
venkatareddy

The Project System guarantees close and constant monitoring of all aspects of your project.Projects are generally part of the internal processes of a company.
There is no orgnization structure of project system like in FI ( Company code), CO ( Controlling Area), Funds management ( FM area). but it depends upon other.
Therefore, The high degree of integration between the Project System (PS) and other SAP application components means that you can plan, execute, and account for projects as part of your normal commercial procedures. This means the Project System has constant access to data in all the departments involved in the project.
Further, in project system mostly controlling & ligistical is more important.
Plz assign point as way of thanks

Budget availibilty control against Goods Issue

Hi all,
can anybody help me in the following issue....
in a budgeted/released cost project (WBS elements only):
i set up a budget profile (overall & annual years, and availability control against annual values), and assigned it to the project
i configured the availability control in order to issue a warning message when exceeding 110% from the budget against all activities (target group: ++)
Availability Control is active
However,
When i made a Goods Issue for a particular WBS element has the status "REL / BUDG / AVAC" with amount more than110% of the WBS element budget, the system permit the transaction and does NOT issue the warning message.... WHY??
Also, when i run CJI3 report, i find the amount of the Goods Issue in the actual cost of the WBS element,
NOTE: the availability control is working well against Purchase Orders, and FI direct postings FB60

Search the forum before posting such basic queries. You will find your answer.

Material To be Valuated in Project System

Hi All,
We are implementing PS,MM,SD,FI &CO for a companay which works essentially on engineer to order scenario and using vlauated projec stock & actvity account assigned networks
Inhouse production is through typical assembly processing process - Where input & output materials are transferred through BOM PS Transfer from WBS BOM.
Input materials are issued to activity; work performed by work centers are entered by confirmation; at completion of work out put materials is 'Received from activity'. Both material issue and receipt are done wrt reservation.
When this is done, as per standard process, the cost addition (and hence value addition) is to activity and thereby to WBS element. The output material is not valuated. All the cost(or values) become project value which will reflect in WIP calculation. WIP is calculated as month end process.
At month end if the company wants to know the current asset from project and relevant stocks:
= WIP of project + Inventory value of the mmaterials.
Pl. note that only input materials i.e. raw materials and Bought out materials will have inventory value; the output material will not have any value.
The process is alright and I think we are alos complying to Accounting stanadard for project system - directive from Institute of Chartered accounts - India.
This process was first aceeptable to customer; but now they say - the out put materials should be valuated. So that, when inventory value is taken - it is RM+BO and valuated semifinished +valuaed finished materials
One big reason they say is that they have to show inventory value to the Banks.
Now I need clarification in following points
1. How to valuate the out put material when working only with project system. (apart from using user exit )
2. If this is done, the project cost/WIP calculations will show ups amd downs - as goods receipt with valuated value will be with sign - this will reduced the cost. This will cause variuos problems - almost no standard SAP PS cost report will reflect the reality - WIP can not go up and down...This is illogical.
3. Have you faced similar situation in implementation - that - Banks can not be conviced about this PSway of WIP calculation? Taking into consideration that project implementation is in India - an experienced reply can be very helpful
Thanks and regards
A.Saravanan

Dear Pradeep,
When we work with network/activity/wbs element, Finished material is assigned to activity with sign. This means GR can be done. Technically system treats lke by-product. This material will not be valuated with in put costs...since there is no logic...For our convention, one WBS element, one network or one activity can be used to book all related costs..but still GR will happen with valuation as per valuation variant in NW only. This is quite logical and correct.
So...customer wants to know the cost of manufacturing a complex project assembly..then process under one WBS element..cost accumuated at that WBS element is cost of mfg. I have kept such finihed material std price at Rs.1. (Ideally it should be '0'.). Meaning material will not valuated.
Now if customer wants to knwo the cost ...look at WBs element
If needed, you can do unit costing and update the value in a suitable field in material master.
Therefore, I have kept all the semifinished/finished material std price at Rs.1.
This way..std functions of PS like RA, costforecasting are work properly.
For WIP calculation, this is of standard method and WIP will be current asset of company..this will be acceptable to Banks...one concern I had..cross checked with a Banker.
Another issue was sub-contracting. In India during S/C..we have Delivery challan and legal requirement of excise. We developed a program integrating dc, excise challan, transfer posting, goods issue against reservation and mateials assigned in activity. For user it will appear as one transcation, and system will propmt/list appropriate excise challan No. based on dc no & material as input...(I hope i remember right).
Again here GR of seni/finished naterial was atRs.1. since Service cosst, matarial issue cost get booked at activty.
Thanks and regards

SRM 7.0 for Public Sector integrated with FM (Budget Control System)

Hello!
I'm starting an implementation project of ERP 6.0 and SRM 7.0 for Public Sector.
It would be necesary the integration not only SRM with ERP but with FM (Fund Management), with BCS (Budget Control System) specifically.
Is it possible? has anyone experience on it?
Thks so much in advance and best regards!
Marcela.-

Hi,
Certainly... If you have FM implemented in your project, you will have to make integration with SRM.
I did it some 3 years ago and it was quite problematic (a lot of notes were created by SAP on this matter, also as initiative from our project), but since then, I assume, it should not pose specific problems.

Eli

Remove budget in Project System from prior fiscal years

Hello,
Budget control has been activated in PS. In PS, it is on annual budget so there's budget and actuals in FY 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, & 2007. Is there a way to remove the annual budget in those Fiscal Years? I've deactivated budget control using tcode CJBW. Once budget control is deactivated, I tried removing the budget but it's giving an error "budget exceeded."
Is there a way to remove budget in PS for prior fiscal years?
Thanks.

hi,
as per my knowledge, you had already de-activated the budget control.
so, my Q is why do u have to remove/delet the budget, when the system has no control of budget on project.
