Project System Issues

Dear PS Masters,
1.Can any one tell me the scenerio of Simulation.
Basic configuration.
2.Can we delete whole cost plan at single shot (element wise).
3.Is there any standard report to see the values of Costplan(cj40)..Budget(cj30)
Reagards&Thanks
Chandra

Hello Chandrasai,
For Query - 1: Follow the following steps:
(1) Goto T.code SPRO --> IMG Menu --> Project System --> Simulation --> Stipulate Version Keys for Simulation (T.code OPUS). Over here create version keys as per your requirement.  Do not Flag for inactive input template.
(If you tick the input mask to inactive, then no version numbers can be created in this number range.) You can cancel this indicator.
(2) Goto T.code SPRO --> IMG Menu --> Project System --> Simulation --> Stipulate Simulation Version.
(3) Project Version are called Screen Shots of Operative Projects and not simulation version.  Simulation version are usually used for having different Planned version of one project before the execution starts.
(4) Now Goto T.code CJV1. Enter Simulation version key, Project Definition, Project Profile.
(5) Choose continue.  You would see project planning board enter/edit the data and save the simulation version.
For Query - 2: Follow the following steps:
You need to manually clear the plan cost defined in CJ40.  There is no option to delete the plan cost at one go.
For Query - 3: Follow the following steps:
(1) Goto T.code CNS41. Enter the Project Definition and Execute or F8
(2)Choose Fields or F5 and select "Project Cost Schedule" and "Budget" or any required fields.
Please let me know if you need more clarifications.
Thanks & Regards,
Anish Walinjkar

  • 2 Project Systems issues

    Hi,
    I'm working on a project and having a couple of problems.
    1. I wrote a program to upload a file from Kronos of employee activity and load into PS. That works. However, I would like to also be able to confirm the activity. I thought I was doing this correctly, the BAPI returns no errors, I do a BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT, yet when I go to CJ20N and do the pull-down EDIT>ACTIVITY>CONFIRM, it still shows that the user needs to manually confirm. Here's the code:
    Maintain the activity.

    2. I'm creating an ALV report which shows activity by period. The column on the left is essentially the secondary cost element. It joins several tables (COKA, PRPS, PROJ, CSKS, CSU), but the amounts come from COSS. I think these amounts are correct. The user wants a drill-down to see the detail. From what I've seen, I thought that I could get the detail of activity by reading COBK inner join COEP (on akokrs = bkokrs and abelnr = bbelnr) inner join AFRU (on arefbn = crueck and aaworg = crmzhl). What I'm returning however, is nothing like what I want.
    Can some tell me how to retrieve the activity (in dollars) by period? I don't want to show the hours (which is in AFRU). I need the costed activity.
    Thanks for your help

    Hi Michael,
    I'd try a BAPI_COMMIT before you do the Confirmation.

  • Project System - Report Painter - Cost roll up issue

    Hi,
    We have an issue with the roll up of the costs in Report Painter report in Project Systems. The problem occurs only with those costs which have been settled to an internal order from a WBS element.
    We are using the same cost elements to settle to the Cost Center and Internal order and roll up of the costs work fine for those settled to cost center. But the roll up does not happen for the costs settled to an internal order. Would appreciate if someone can guide on how to fix this issue.

  • Asset settlement issue from Project System

    Hello everyone,
    In SAP, we have tied Project System and Fixed Asset in the sense that for each network/activity in PS we create and link an asset in Asset Accounting. In the Purchase Order, the network/activity number is assigned and all the transactions that occur through this PO (including down payment, its clearing, GR/IR)  are then settled on the specified asset when we execute settlement run at month end through CJ88.
    However, we have encountered scenarios where an asset was not timely allocated to the network/activity but the transactions were carried out through the PO. When the settlement run was executed, its impact was not visible in Asset Accounting. Later, it was realized and the asset was created and assigned. Once the asset was assigned, all the subsequent transactions through the PO were then being settled successfully. But the problem is with those transactions for which the asset number was initially not assigned.
    Is there any program that can be executed to include the impact of the previous transactions. Otherwise, suggest alternatives.
    Thanks

    Hi Thanks for your reply, But that is not relevent to this issue.
    The issue here is -
    First 2 documents has value date of 4th period and the amount is 8800
    Next document has value date of 5th period and the amount is 1200
    Now i am trying to settle 10000(8800+1200) with 5th period date. Its givign an error Settlement amount is greater than Available amount
    Will it solve if i settle 4th period with 8800 first and then 1200 with 5t period? or any other process?
    Thanks

  • Version 999 Project System Plan Data Issue

    I am using transaction CJ9B to copy the Project System related plan data i.e. plan data at the WBS element level from Version 10F, period 1 to 12  in year 2010 to version 999, period 1 to 12 in year 2010. The transaction CJ9B runs successfully in the update mode. But when report CJI4 is executed for version 999, period 1 to 12 in year 2010 then we do not find plan data in sync with version 10F.
    I analysed this issue, had a meeting with end user and blanked out target version 999 using source version 9ZR for the year 2010. Then I again copied version 999 from version 10F. Still plan data in version 999 do not exist as they are in version 10F. I have checked the version 999 master data in transaction OKEV. Integrated Planning for SPL, COPA, cost center accounting and business process is active. COPY Allowed is also enabled. Version 999 is unlocked as well.
    Hence I am not sure why the copy functionality is not working fine for version 999, period 1 to 12 in year 2010.
    Can you please take a look and revert with your opinion so that this issue can be fixed ?
    Thanks,
    Umesh

    Hi,
    If you want to copy all the plan date from 10F to 999, then in Txn CJ9B
    select the indicator reset and overwrite in target version and execute in test mode.

  • 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.

  • WBS Elements not getting created in ECC Project System from CRM 7.0

    Dear all,
    We are trying to integrate SAP CRM 7.0 with SAP ECC-PS module. The objective is to bring in the marketing plan and elements data from the CRM system, and to create the corresponding WBS in project system. We have done most of the configuration as recommended by SAP in both the systems, and we see that the BDOCS are getting generated and sent to the ECC system. The following steps have been successfully completed:
    1.       Set up the RFC connections between the two systems
    2.       Selected the connection type as Middleware in CRM system.
    3.       Installed the cProject Add on in CRM box.
    4.       Created a project scenario (with project and network profiles) in the PS system and assigned the same in the CRM system.
    5.       The Project Scenario in PS config has the same name as the Project Type in CRM config.
    6.       Created and released the campaign ids being created in the CRM system.
    As already mentioned, we can see that the BDOCS are coming to the ECC system and are getting stored in BDOC_TRACK table. However the issue is that the corresponding WBS elements are not getting generated in the ECC system. Is there anything that that we are missing in the ECC box which would trigger the WBS element creation?
    Request you all to share your inputs which would be immensely beneficial for us in achieving this integration.
    Thanks and Kind Regards,
    Aditya Shrivastava

    Hello Aditya,
    We too are facing this issue.. if you have resolved the issue could you please let us know the solution ?
    Some inputs related to our system,
    We have upgrade from CRM 4.0 to CRM 7.0 SP07 and R/3 backend system is on 4.7 SP27, earlier we have completed the upgrade on sandbox without any issues which was upgrade to CRM 7.0 SP04 but with SP07 we are facing the problem of WBS Element not getting created in R/3.
    Your help is highly appreciated.

  • Report Painter Drilldown on Cost Element for Project Systems

    I am currently working on a report for Project Systems. I am trying to copy the functionality of the Internal Order summary (60I2-001) into report group 6P3. I was able to copy the whole layout and also the values of 6oI2-001 into a copy of 6PP4-001 but when I double click on "Balance" it is bringin up the ALV report that 6PP4-001 is using. I would like to call another report which looks like 6LS0-001 but contains Project System info made in report painter when I double click on Balance. Is this possible? Please let me know how.

    Hi Avinash,
    See my replies below.
    1 a & B: You are planning Qty on NWA and capturing costs - labor & Equipment on NWA elements.
    When  you are having elaborated to NWA-Element level, split your total work on each NWA-element and post labor cost. Thus you will have planned Vs actual costs at one place.
    coming to equipment cost - are you capturing using PO through GR?.
    2.a : Option1- create a separate WBS elements for materials and plan cost at WBS level. That value would be your total planned cost of material procurement as estimated. Under this WBS elements create NWAs and assign the materials. With this set up you can assign material and procure so that will have actual costs coming from GR.
    Option 2: Create a one General Cost activity and assign the total planned cost of material on this NWA.
    When you assign the material components, diligently you have to reduce the equivalent amount from the general costs activity. Also note that on component screen, you have to check box "Cost relevant" so that material cost will add to Cost NWA. Let the different materials  have their own valuation class and have default CEs accordingly. that would not be big issue.
    Please discuss with your MM team to get more information. Also my suggestion is to leave blank CE field in configuration.
    The option2 is very cumbersome and high risk but one have to be very cautious to reduce the value from Cost NWA in order to sustain the planned material costs whenever they added.
    3. I have answered the relevance of Cost relevance check box in above.
    Hope above makes sense.
    Thanks,
    Sudhakar

  • Project System Cash Management in combination with statistical WBS element

    Hi,
    within  a customer project, we have to solve the following issue:
    Customer runs projects and statistical projects in combination with internal orders.
    We want to use the PS Cash Management for planned and actual payments.
    With statistical projects we have the following problem:
    Invoice and actual payments will be processed with the transaction CJFN.
    Actual payments are shown only on the internal order (transaction CJIA), but not on the statistical WBS element.
    We want the information about the actual payments with in the project system reporting (S_ALR_87013574).
    Projects, not flagged as statistical will deliver the expected results.
    Many thanks for your ideas, to solve this problem.
    Steffen

    are u posting to some other cost object also. normally they wud have to be posted to a COPA also with the cost element being 11 category.
    the wbs will receive the statistical posting, so there needs to be a real object also.
    see whether the real object is getting derived.
    the system is nt finding the real object and trying to post with the WBS in real, but since its statistical, the error.
    any other calrifications. plz post.

  • Customer Downpayment Update in Project Systems

    Hi,
    I am facing problems w.r.t. update of customer down payment update in project systems. As per standard SAP, after doing customer down payments, this will get updated in project info systems (CN41/CN41N).
    Please suggest me to fix the issue.
    Best Regards,
    Ranjan

    hi,
    Downpayment request is used to create a billing request through
    the t code DP 90.This DR can further be used to create a billing document
    say invoice.
    Actually you will be using these fundas in Resource Related Billing because that is
    where the integration between PS and SD module take place with the help of
    DR against actual resource utilized in the project.
    I hope this clarifies your question and award points if it is so.
    Do not hesitate to ask me if you have any further questions in this.
    Thanking you,

  • Report-Report Interface from BW to Project Systems

    I'd like to jump from BW reports based on 0PS_C04 into the corresponding R/3 line items. If I specify CJ74 as the transaction target then run the BW report and choose the corresponding option from the 'GoTo' menu the following message is displayed. I find this very confusing -- it seems to be saying that the report behind the transaction cannot be used in the report-report interface, but in the procedure says always use the program in the report-report interface.
    Can anybody understand what the message is telling us? Can anyone tell me how to jump to an R/3 line item report from BW Project System cube?

  • 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

  • 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

  • Problem regarding SAP Project System & Material Management

    Hello Experts,
    please check our process as below:
    Order confirms than sales order and project will create
    material of BOM is assigned to any activity in project so these material (RM) will be procured and consumed
    assign activity for all work done on material to produce FG or SFG.
    confirm activity whenever any work done like fabrication done so confirm and its cost comes to WBS.
    than we have to subcontracting process so dispach SFG from this and receive after activity done by third party.
    than more work is done and confirm these activity. than after all work done we get FG in stock. than delivery from project.
    We are facing issue in above business process of our client as below:
    1. process of subcontracting using project system as we are not using production planning. how we get any SFG for subcontracting process.
    2. if we confirm all activities and consume all Raw Materials than how we will get finished good in our project stock for delivery.
    3. after delivery from project how sales order affects with regards to completeness of this sales document.
    Please help for this.
    Note: Remember we are not using PP cos customer require detailed report of these process and capacity planning etc.

    Hi Sunil,
    Assume this is my project structure & attached components. I will procure this components externally. After GRN, This components will be issued to network with 581 Q movement type.
    Now we need to assemble this raw material to produce our FG, As these SFG are in our project stock. What we need to do for assembly process through PS.
    Also throw some light over benefit of using PS-BOM interface ( CN33 ) for attaching material components.
