Queries about PS module and subsequent integration with MM, SD and PP

Hello Experts,
Am posting the query for the first time so hope you all will excuse if something is not correct. Here is a scenario that I am working on:
- The customer is a project engineering company wanting to use PS (but without networks - ONLY WBS)
- We copy the neutral material BOM to create a project BOM
- We create a multi-item sales order with a/c assignment to different assembly groups from the project structure for deliveries and billing
- Project COST planning (V002 and V000) is carried out
- Material stock must be valuated
Following are the scenarios for commitment and actual costs:
1. Direct procurement:
Process: Material purchased with a PR generated from SO item --> PO --> GR --> IR
Query: I am guessing that commitment will be generated through PO creation for WBS. What about actual? What type of cost element should be assigned to the G/L being affected during GR so that I can get some actual against the WBS?
2. Procure to produce:
Process:
Common Purchase: Material purchased through a normal PO (without a/c assignment to WBS) for common unrestricted stock.
Project purchase: Material purchased through project PO (with a/c assignment to WBS - resulting in commitment generation) and special project stock at the time of GR
Both materials (from common and project PO) shall be used for production of an assembly which is being produced using a production order which is assigned to the WBS element.
Query:
How and when would I be getting the commitment / actual effects here?
- Is any commitment generated when I create a production order?
- Is any actual cost posted when I issue raw material to this production order?
- What if the raw material being issued to production order was not purchased using this WBS? Is the actual cost still loaded on this WBS?
- What happens when I confirm the production order to generate FG stock?
What should I be careful about when defining this scenario and what type of cost elements should I be using?
3. Procure - Produce - Sale
Process: In certain cases, material procured  for common stock is issued for project production,
Material produced for one WBS/Project gets issued for another.
Query: How does SAP react in this case about the entire commitments and actual cost postings?
I know there are too many queries but I hope you all understand that it is a project-engineering-manufacturing company so on one side the commitment-actual costs are important to be assigned to right project-WBS. At the same time, they also want to have the flexibility in their production activities.
Awaiting eagerly for all possible help.

  • Brief discussion on SAP XI and its' Integration with SAP MDM.

    Hi,
    I have never worked on SAP XI.
    I am discussing it on brief, please give your valuable replies.
    SAP XI consists of System Landascape Directory(SLD).
    SLD Consists of Business System and Techinical System.
    Technical System contains all information about the software
    component. The Business System consists of Inbound and Outbound Business
    System which are used as logical names for data transfer.
    There is communication Channel for Receiver and Sender Business System and n agreement
    is signed between Sender and Receiver.
    Outbound Interface defined for Business System Outbound and Techical System associated
    with the Business System,
    Inbound Interface defined for Business System Inbound and Techical System associated
    with the Business System.
    In SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Directory, we have defined the Integration Scenarios,
    Actions, Interface Objects, Mapping Objects, Adapters Objects.
    Mapping Object defines the Structure and Value Mapping.
    Adapter Objects defines the Adapter program which implements RFC Adapter, FTP Adapter logic.
    FTP Adapter is used for XI-MDM Communication.
    RFC Adapter is used for XI-ECC Communication.
    Integration Repository: Both Outbound and Inbound Interfaces are Mapped with Value mapping and
    Structure Mapping inside Integration Repository.
    The File Adapter takes the File from the Outbound port of MDM System
    and sends it as IDOC to Receiver Business System.
    Value Mapping must be done between Sender and Receiver interfaces.
    Value Mapping is done by XSLT or Java based program.
    SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Server at runtime:
    Message Split, Interface Determination, Receiver Identifaction, Mapping, Techincal Routing
    and Call Adapter Proccess are done.
    In SAP XI 3.0 and MDM 5.5:
    Step 1: Create busines system as service.
    Step 2: Create communication channel for each business service. If the system can communicate
    through different channels, then create all possible channel types if necessary.
    Step 3: Create receiver agreement between the systems.
    Step 4: Interface determination:
    - Here you see for the first time the software component mentioned;
    there are some special requirements regarding this software component in relation to the customizing ID mapping.
    - To modify this software component, the customer needs to copy the SAP standard delivered software component
    into its own namespace. The customer is able to modify to create archives
    for the customized ID mapping.
    Receiver determination.
    Configure an FTP Server on the MDS.
    Create a send folder for outbound messages using outbound port(s) for
    remote systems(s).
    Create receive folder inbound messages using inbound port(s) for remote systems.
    This ia all about concept of SAP XI Infractsture and its' Integration with SAP MDM 5.5.
    Regards
    Kaushik Banerjee

    Hi Kaushik,
    You must be aware of File types that MDM Import Manager can Import i.e. we have XML, Excel etc. Now there are two transactions to extract data from R3
    1. MDMGX -
             - For lookup table extraction
             - Output in XML format which MDM can import without using XI.
              - FTP can be configured to put the file in the desired folder which will be then picked by Import Server.
    2. MDM_CLNT_EXTR -
              - For Main table records.
              - Output is in Idoc format which MDM doesn't understand hence we need XI in between which converts Idoc file received from R3 into XML which can then be imported using Import Manager or Import Server. For this we need to implement XI Scenario that consists of Source System, Receiver System, Type of Data etc.
    Just a basic understanding...

  • SiteMinder integration with the internal and external facing portals

    Hi ,
    We are in development phase for SiteMinder integration with the internal and external facing portals.The proposed dual authentication scheme which requires both SiteMinder for External facing portal (EFP) and LDAP for Internal portal .is it possible?
    and is it possible to main to diff LDAP directories one is external users and one is for internal users.?
    If you maintain  2 diff(external & internal) LDAP Directories in Siteminder Policy Server  what about  external users which are  not exit in portal data source .
    I appreciate if anyone  can help me for my above query .
    Regards
    Tag

    Hey Tag,
    We do have a physical external Portal and a physical internal portal.  The both the external and internal are connected to 2 LDAP directories.
    For example the External Portal is connected to the Employee LDAP Direcotry and the Customer LDAP Directory.  The Internal Portal is connected to the US Employee LDAP Direcotry and the EMEA LDAP Directory.
    So each one of them is connected to 2 different LDAP Directories.
    I believe that the Siteminder Policy is setup such that the Internal portal has a policy and the External portal has a seperate policy on the same Siteminder Server.  Then each of the Policies is configured to connect to the approiate LDAP Directories.
    You have to maintain the LDAP Directory information in both the portal and Siteminder Policy Server.  It is required in the policy server so that it can authenticate the user and it is required in the Portal server so that it can authorize the user and display content based on thier assigned roles.
    Hope that helps.
    Regards,
    Keith

    how to solve illustrator cs6 save as cs5 problem about the stroke(when the stroke with clipping mask and color is gradient, save as cs5 will change to embed ).

    Because it was not possible to apply a gradient to a stroke in CS5. When you open the file in CS5, it is reduced to something that can be rendered in CS5.

  • Where's the music on iTunes, and what's with the quality and compatibility?

    I'm just curious as to whether anyone else has had this issue or not: Does anyone else feel like, after searching for specific songs, there's just little to nothing in the database? I feel like most of my searches are pointless because iTunes has either no data of my requested search and/or only has bits and pieces of it.
    Another question I have: After having a slightly successful search, why am I left with low quality tunes? I mean, you can hear the compression... badly. (I know it's not my speakers)
    Last question: If I'm paying for the song, shouldn't I be allowed to download a universal file? iTunes uses a unique format that no other application uses. In other words, more money has to be spend for m4a to mp3 converters (unless you're a cracker [not a racial comment]).
    To me, I value iTunes and its team, so I'm sorry if I've offended anyone. I understand there are contracts involved with the artists and it's hard to please ALL of the subscribers. But seriously, where's the music on iTunes, and what's with the quality and compatibility?
    Custom   Windows XP Pro   Negative, I am a meat popsicle.

    Today I thought of finally putting lyrics on my songs. So I've been quite some time busy doing that, then I tried it on my iPad (2) and I can't find them. Just as the people above say. Then I went to search where I can find them and I found this page. I'm really dissapointed and I don't understand how something like this could happen. So I hope Apple will fix this soon.
    (I'm just posting this so that Apple will do something about it)

  • Commit work and roll back with simple language and simple example

    hi guru
    commit work and roll back with simple language and simple example

    Hi,
    The statement COMMIT WORK completes the current SAP LUW and opens a new one, storing all change requests for the current SAP LUW in the process. In this case, COMMIT WORK performs the following actions:
    It executes all subroutines registered using PERFORM ON COMMIT.
    The sequence is based on the order of registration or according to the priority specified using the LEVEL addition. Execution of the following statements is not permitted in a subroutine of this type:
    PERFORM ... ON COMMIT|ROLLBACK
    COMMIT WORK
    ROLLBACK WORK
    The statement CALL FUNCTION ... IN UPDATE TASK can be executed.
    ROLL BACK:
    The statement ROLLBACK WORK closes the current SAP-LUW and opens a new one. In doing so, all change requests of the current SAP-LUW are canceled. To do this, ROLLBACK WORK carries out the following actions:
    1) Executes all subprograms registered with PERFORM ON ROLLBACK.
    2) Deletes all subprograms registered with PERFORM ON COMMIT.
    3) Raises an internal exception in the Object Services that makes sure that the attributes of persistent objects are initialised.
    4) Deletes all update function modules registered with CALL FUNCTION ...IN UPDATE TASK from the VBLOG database table and deletes all transactional remote Function Calls registered with CALL FUNCTION ... IN BACKGROUND TASK from database tables ARFCSSTATE and ARFCSDATA.
    5) Removal of all SAP locks set in the current program in which the formal parameter _SCOPE of the lock function module was set to the value 2.
    6) Triggers a database rollback, which also ends the current database-LUW.

    Cannot get the Apple.. what?
    Model and actual device you are talking about?
    Apple covers a pretty huge range.. If you mean extreme.. did you reset it to factory and start over.. that is always necessary when you change a network. You cannot pick up a router from one home and network and plonk it into another and have it work.. aint gonna happen.
    You also need to power down any pure cable modem for 20min or so to get it to forget the old MAC address that captured the IP so the Apple ??? has a chance to work.

    Hello Hoppayoppa
    You would need to have the owner of that iCloud account to turn off. It can be done without them there. Check out the article below for more information. After that is done, you can put the correct backup on your iPhone.
