Project Version in cProjects

Hello Guys,
Can someone explain what is project version and its functionality. Can this be controlled with status flow of Projects. For example, In status flow, when PM changes to Update status an new version of project shoud be created.
Can this be possible in cProjects as standard functionality.
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
VJ

There are two types of versions in project management
1. Project versions: Typically used for reporting the state of a project at a given time. Yes it is possible to automatically generate a version based trigger on a project.
2. Simulation version : this is typically used to simulate a project. At times the cost planning, effort estimates needs to be determined which can be done using simulation versions

Project Version - cProjects

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me where have we to create the project version to record the Snapshot.
Thanks & Regards,
Stephen

Hi Stephen,
You can create versions manually in cProjects application itself. You'll find a 'Versions' tab at the header level where you would need to create a version master first.
Once the version master is created, you can create Project Versions. Alternatively, use report DPR_SNAPSHOTS_CREATE to create versions automatically by schduling a background job.
Hope this helps.

PS - Project Version Reporting

Hi Dear,
For project verson wise reporting i need to get Amount (Plan and actual cost , revenue) and Quantity (Plan work and actual work --durations).
I have done the development by pulling amont from RPSCO and Quantity from RPSQT by giving the OBJNR which iam getting from MASTER TABLES.
I got the right amount values i need for defining COST and REVENUES.
<b>
But the problem is with the RPSQT. all the quantity values have got the units as ' % '. So, i feal that this is not the right table to define Plan and Actual WORK (Duration) and the units hould be like Hours or Each....etc.
Can some one pls suggest me as which R/3 table will provide me the Quantity values by Project version wise for defining DURATION/WORK (plan and actuals)</b>
Your valuable inputs will be appreciated.
Thanks Dear...

Hi Leo,
On BCT I found data sources for "cProject" that can handle versions but none for PS. Have you solved your request and if so how you managed it? I've got the same request concerning 0PS_C02 and 0PS_C04.

Functional modules on cPr project version create and PS

Could u please help with some information on ABAP code work.
We need to know functional module names used when
a verion for cProjects project created. I mean a functional
module used after a user peformes the following steps:
1. Open cProjects project
2. Move to "Project Versions"tab-"Snapshots" or"Simulations"
3. Click "Create" button
4. Choose version and click "Continue" button
We would like to modify the functional modules for the
following scenario performed. After cProjects
snapshots/simulations created if a cProjects 4.0
project has PS accounting assigned we need to ask a user
whether he/she wants to create PS project
version/simulation. If a user choses "Yes" then we call a
ERP 6.0 transaction CJV4 for a simulation or CN72 for
a snapshot and create PS version/simulation with the same
name. It would be great to make link to PS project
version/simulation on the cPojects snapshots/simulations
or mark cProjects snapshots/simulations with a flag that
there is a PS version/simulation for this cProjects
snapshots/simulations.
It is very important to create cProjects
and PS versions at one moment for projects analisys.
Product versions:
SAP cProject 4.0 (SP 0011)
SAP ECC 6.0
Best regards

Authorization to project versions

Hi All,
My requirement is to provide authorization to some users to already created versions in cProjects. I am able to create a new version using the class 'CL_DPR_APPL_OBJECT_MANAGER' and the method 'CREATE_PRJ_SNAP_WITH_PROJECT'. But I need to provide authorization to the existing project versions. I searched many classes and methods to achieve this, but not able to get a solution.
Request your comments on this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vidhya.

Vidhya,
I regret that I am unable to answer your specific question. My team also has this question.
I did want to share this thought with you in the hopes that it would be useful for the future. In testing I had realized that any users we added in the future would not have access to old project versions. We informed our user of this and asked him to use user groups with authorizations so that if a new person joins the team that person is assigned to the user group. Because the user group had access to the old project versions, this new person should be able to also get to this data.
I hope that someone will be able to help answer your question though as we did not implement the use of user groups in time. We have some projects with this same issue.
Best wishes,
Wendy

Hi
i have seen the thread
my error msg is as follows:
Error occurred when importing from Microsoft Project
Message no. DPR_UI_BSP116
Diagnosis
When a project is imported from Microsoft Project, the system generates an XML string during internal processing. A project is then created in cProjects from this string.
The XML string contains errors because the values from Microsoft Project were transferred without verification.
Procedure for System Administration
Notify SAP or call the cProjects application with the "DebugMode=X" query string and carry out the import again.
The XML string that was generated temporarily is then validated against the cProjects XML schema. The error message from the XML parser is then displayed in the popup.
please give inputs on this...

2. Activate Accounting integration
3. Object types for object link (WBSE in this case)

Determine Project Version in BPM 10.3.1

I would like to display the current project version in my BPM Application. Is there a way to query this information?
I am using Oracle BPM 10.3.1 and Weblogic Server 10.3.0.
Thanks in advance,
Shannon

This might be helpful. I don't see a process.version, but there is a process.retrieveObjectPropertyFor that says it will obtain the property from the directory.
Does anyone know if there is a list of valid properties to query for?
I see there is a FUEGO_PROCDEF table that has a field FUEGO_PROJREVREM in the directory database that would give me the information that I need. Can I get this value using the above method?

Editing a Project Version (CN72 / CN41)

Hi,
I have a requirement where a department build a project in CJ20N, then take a snapshot of that project using CN72 capturing the WBS structure and any Networks / Activities within the structure. They store this as an 'approved' snapshot. Later they add a further WBS element which they wish to add into their already taken snapshot so as not to change the WBS elements that already exist in the snapshot previously taken, but simply update that snapshot with the new WBS element. My questions are:
a) Is it possible to manually update a project version in this manner without having to create a new project version key? A new version key would mean that any changes made to data in CJ20N on the elements which existed in the original project version snapshot would then include those updates from CJ20N thus not showing the 'approved' version as it was previously.
b) Would another solution to this be to use status dependant project versions - would these update an existing project version if a new element was added to the structure but we didn't wish to overwrite the existing data in the snapshot for the existing elements?
c) A simulation version might be another method but I don't believe that you can raise purchase orders etc against a simulation version unless it is copied into the operative version in CJ20N.
Any answers of advice will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Sam

Dear Sam,
as business requirement is,
to update the planned versions,it is not possible
versions are the snapshots and cannot be updated manually or by any means,
to do so every time you have to take a new version and get the approval for the same
any changes you make to the project can be compared with the already created version,so you can have a comparison of current data verses version data
once again i confirm that you cant change version or manually update it

Project Search in cProjects 4.0 - Displays all projects

Hi Experts,
Project Search in cProjects fetches all projects - across all users and across all project types. This includes projects of project types the user is not authorized to. Well, the user cannot open any of these projects (unless he has authorization) but he can see all projects.
Is there a way to restrict this? We require users to get to see projects in his search list only if the user has authorization to the corresopdning Project Type. Is there a way?
Regards...

Thanks Ramakrishna for responding.
But I understand that this search is also influenced by the settings that the user does at the front end. What I mean is, if he does not put any such filter, he can still view all projects.
Is there anyway we can restrict the users from viewing? What I mean is, can we put such filters (which the user puts at front end to search) at the back end by which the front end user just cannot see/view all projects?
Thanks again...
Regards,
Bittu.

Project Version Deletion

Dear PS Gurus
I have query on deletion of project version. Client has created project versions via CNS41 or CN72, now they want to delete some project versions which are not required at all. I could not find how project versions are deleted. If you have come across such problem , pl let me know how you had resolved.
Thanks a lot in advance...

Hi,
I don't think there is any transactions for deleting project version. But you can overwrite project versions with verions group / key.
Hope this will help you.
