Question: to have different 2 key dates to show time-dep master data.

Hello All -
I would kindly like to ask your suggestion in this challenges.
In our Finance report e.g AR Report, we have 2 Year to dates of Key Figures. 1) Current Year to date, and 2) previous Year to dates. We want to have the report shows time-dependent master data navigation attribute based on this 2 year to dates.
I am thinking to have 2 Key Date selection parameter in the report e.g. 1) Current key-date, and 2) Previous Key-date
The report above will show COLOR as per key date. If the posting is 'Previous YTD', the COLOR will show based on 'Previous Key Date', and if the posting for 'Current YTD', the COLOR will show based on 'Current Key-Date'.
The question are:
1) What to do for customization if we want to have 2 key dates in Query or Report? If you have experience it before, could you please share?
2) If you think that there is other way, feel free to share it.
Many Thanks, and really appreciate your suggestion & advice,
Cheers,

Hello Cornelia -
Thanks for your advice:
1) Use Info Set to temporal join between master data, and transaction.
Comment:
We are using multicube for reporting. Are you saying that we should put infoset into MultiCube?
2) Modelling the time-dependent master data as a info object in transaction (Cube).
Comment:
Thanks for this, i will analyse if we go to this option.
Btw, I am also thinking to use Virtual Characteristic, but the performance will be expensive, like using Info Set.
Feel free for your comment,
Is there any other backend door that we can use e.g. to use BADI Exit.
Appreciate your feedback,
Thanks,

Time dep master data reorganization / process seems to do nothing

Hi,
Info:
I created a process chain just to reorganize time dep master data for 1 InfoObject (0UCINSTALLA). In this process variant I choose only to process time dep attributes - not text or time independent tables.
The InfoObject is flagged for change run (have som entries in M version)
The InfoObject with the properties:
/BI0/QUCINSTALLA = 9 393 539 rec (4 162 in M version) (same goes for Y-table). Those tables have just a few (3-4) fields.
The InfoObject 0UCINSTALLA exists in a few aggregates, but none of the time dep attributes does.
The system have these components:
SAP_ABA     700     0013
SAP_BASIS     700     0013
PI_BASIS     2005_1_700     0013
ST-PI     2005_1_700     0005
SAP_BW     700     0015
BI_CONT     703     0005
Running on Linux / Oracle 10.2.0.2.0
Problem:
The background job is started via process chain but checking the
process it seems to do nothing. I ran it for 3 days over the weekend, it doesn't time out or give any ABAP dumps or entries in SM21.
Checking the statement for the process in ST04 gives me:

"/BI0/QUCINSTALLA" T_00

Anybody have any idea what the problem could be - I have no idea how long a reorganization for the amount of records should take. But the process seems to do nothing.
Thanks,
Johan

A little update:
I could see that the background process (which seemed to do nothing) ran a oracle process and on the DB server instance this was no.1 in top cpu. So - something is happening. The DB only has 2 cpus. Is there any way to run this job with more then 1 process?

Activate time-dep. master data (0EMPLOYEE)

Dear experts!
I have loaded a lot of master data and after some fruitless change runs technically the data seemed to activated.One of the major challenges here is, that we are talking about a lot rekords (8 million) However the Q- and Y-table look like this:
EMPLOYEE OBJVERS DATETO DATEFROM CHANGED
14005099             A       2003.11.30 1000.01.01
14005099             A       2003.12.31 2003.12.01
14005099             M       2004.01.31 2004.01.01 I
14005099             M       2004.02.29 2004.02.01 I
14005099             M       2004.03.31 2004.03.01 I
14005099             M       2004.04.30 2004.04.01 I
14005099             M       9999.12.31 2004.05.01 I
Thus, actually data is still not active in BI, until the M/I -records have been converted into A/(blank) ones (regarding objvers/changed). Anyway, the DWH workbench (RSATTR) says, the iobj is still active....
How can I finally activate the iobj (here we still have BW 3.1)?
Thanks
Frank

Alright folks,
thanks for all tips. Finally I found no other option than to activate the Q- and Y-table my own way. Everything works fine.

Mixing materials with different Goods Receipt date in the same Storage Unit

Hello everybody,
I´d like to know how FIFO strategy would affect to this example:
Adding boxes from one storage unit (pallet) to another storage unit (pallet). Both storage units have different goods receipt dates, so there is a pallet which has boxes with different GR dates.
Would FIFO make difference among boxes inside the storage unit?. As far as I know, when adding stock (boxes) to a handling unit (pallet), the system keeps the oldest GR date and does not create new quant number for the incoming boxes
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi Nagesh,
Thank you for the input. I am receiving Stock from vendor and while creating Inbound delivery i created the Handling Unit and also packed it and i could also post it (PG Receipt). Now when i am creating TO i have that error message. The Storage Location where i am receiving is 9001and i have also maintained the partner Storage location,,, its like this Plant(1000)-SLoc(9001)-Partner SLoc(9002).... now the Storage Location 9002 is not HU managed,, the reason i gave this Storage location is, initially i gave 9001, but system said "Storage Location 9001 and 9001 must have different management systems". So now kindly tell me what is the purpose of the partner Storage location and which storage location should i give, as my partner Storage location across "1000-9001-????" thank you again for ur inputs.

Samuel

Different Asset Value Dates for each Asset

Hi,
A very interesting and unique requirement.
We are attaching multiple assets in the settlement rule of wbs elements and run CJ88, but as per standard SAP, all assets under each WBS Element are capitalized on the same Asset Value Date.
My client wants to capitalize assets at different asset value dates for each of these assets without needing to run CJ88 multiple times.In CJ88, however, we have only one asset Vale date option.
Is this possible to have different asset value dates asset wise when we run CJ88 ? I did not find any option to define an asset value date in CJIC either.In Settlement rule neither.
Thanks for any help.
Regards,
Manis

Try and explore the option of using Asset Value date on the sender WBS, you can find this under settlement parameters.
This option depends on your project (WBS) strcture and the number of assets being capitalised on back on one WBS element.
Refer note OSS 98496 for more information

Different TRL \ Position Dates per Valuation Area

Dear experts,
I would like to ask you if there is a way when you use more than one valuation areas to have different Position/TRL dates for each valuation area.
To be more specific follow the example.
When a purchase of a bond takes place we have to take into account two different dates. Trade date e.g. 03/09/2011 and settlement date e.g. 06/09/2011. The first valuation area (001 u2013 IFRS) works with trade date accounting. This means that the position of this bond will be updated with nominal amount 100.000 EUR, the nominal of the purchase, on 03/09/2011. On the other hand the second valuation area (002-Local GAAP) works with settlement date accounting. Meaning that the position of the same bond will be updated with nominal amount 100.000 EUR on 06/09/2011. The same is for the book value and all other flows and acc. entries Realized P/L, Accruals, etc.
Can this scenario be covered from SAP Treasury and Risk Management where per valuation area we have two different position dates?
With regards,
George

Hello George,
from my own experience Position/TRL date/ settlement date is equal to posting date in SAP Treasury.
in this particular example it is 06Sep, which is according to requirements of the second valuation area (002-Local GAAP). however, if you take the first valuation area (001 u2013 IFRS), working with trade date accounting, where the position of the bond should be updated with nominal amount 100.000 EUR on 03Sept - it is also possible, although this will require manual input. I mean when you execute accounting run (trans. TBB1 ), you have to specify that circumstance in the following way:
- in the field Up to and including date you will choose 06Sept
- in the other field Posting date instead of due date you should specify 03Sept.
I'm not sure regarding the accrual calculation, whether accrual period is affected by that - you can verify that yourself - just compare accrual amounts calculated for those different valuation areas - if they are the same, then it does not counts.
hope this will help you.
Best regards,
Renatas

Phase measured by two tone measurement have different dt

Dear all;
I write a labview program for isolated a signal from the mixture of two signals by using a reference input. I choose to use butterworth filter and apply it in bandpass mode. To determine the band width of the filter, I also use two tone measurement vi to detect the phase of the reference signal and the signal I want to outcome. Unfortunately, when I run my program, warming with message "waveforms have different dt value" is always show. How can I fix this problem?
Regards

lock-in test.vi ‏88 KB

Well you got a bad case of the DDT's and dt's
If you get rid of those express vis and use a vi from the waveform measurments pallette you won't get fooled by that dt that does not exist coming out of your filter
Of course you COULD use the Digital IIR Filter vi off the Waveform conditioning palatte and keep your dt info but that doesnt get rid of your DDT's
Here is one quick mod

Workflow keying off changes in the customer master

I have created a workflow that triggers off of changes to a particular field in the customer master.
Everything works great.. However, users are requesting to see the old value as well as the newly changed value.
The event container doesn't seem to hold the previous changed value, only the new one.
It does have have the object key and the event time and date.The only option I see is to have my custom method go back and read the change doc table (cdhdr & cdpos) in and around the event time for the object key ( kna1) to retrieve the old value.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Hi,
The address data is always saved with the dates (look in table adrc). SO maybe you can retrack the original address.
Why do you print again an invoice. And if you do i think it is alright when it is sent to the current address and not to the old address.
Gr., Frank

Reporting on Time Dependent Master Date Info Provider

Dear All.
We have a info object Employee which is time dependent master data containing all the information with time dependency, when i create the query over this info object it give me the option to select the key date and it show the accurate information which is lying according to the key date.
my requirement is to show all the records in the report which are there in master data but i am not able to show more then one record cause of the key date, can you please let me know how can i show all the records for any given employee id in the query.

Hello Zeeshan,
By standard if you create query directly on time dependent info object, it would display the active records as of the report execution (if no key date has been provided). In any case you can only see one record per the info object key, not the history.
In order to fulfill this requirement, you may need to create infoset on this infoobject and select "date from" and "date to" as part of infoset fields.
Then create bex query on the infoset and drag the "date from" and "date to" also into "rows" section of the query (apart from infoobject key, time dependent attributes). This will let you see the history of changes to time-dependent attributes of the infoobject.

In contacts there is the possibility to add a new event, as the birthdays, but they do not appear in iCal. Is there any way to make that possible? It is normal to have a person with his birthday, anniversary and others key dates you want to link to him.

In contacts there is the possibility to add a new event, as the birthdays, but they do not appear in iCal. Is there any way to make that possible? It is normal to have a person with his birthday, anniversary and others key dates you want to link to such person, but the only one shows up is the birthday. How to be able to show all those dates linked to people in the agenda in the iCal?
Thanks

Hi,
I sugggest you try my application, Dates to iCal. It is shareware with a 2 week trial period.
Dates to iCal 2 is a replacement for Apple's birthday calendar for iCal. It has a range of features to allow the user to choose what, and what not, to sync to iCal from Address Book.
As well as automatically syncing birthday dates from Address Book, Dates to iCal 2 can sync anniversary and custom dates. It can set up to five alarms for each date in iCal and can also set different alarms for birthdays and anniversaries. It allows the option of only syncing from one Address Book group. This application also allows for the titles of the events sent to iCal to be modified to the user's preference.
Best wishes

If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc so I don't lose all of that information and can easily switch to a singular apple id?

Apple does not transfer content bought with one Apple ID to another Apple ID. Apple will not merge two Apple IDs.
If most of your content was bought with the Yahoo! Apple ID but you now want the Gmail address for your Apple ID, the trick will be to change the address used for the Yahoo ID with the Gmail address. However, to do that you must first free the Gmail address from that other Apple ID. Use the instructions from Apple to substitute another address that is not used as an Apple ID for your Gmail address in the Apple ID with the Gmail address. Then, when the Gmail address is no longer used in an Apple ID, you can use the same instructions to substitute the Gmail address for the Yahoo address in the Apple ID with the Yahoo address.

I have a question to ask you about General Data Selection in Report Painter

Please help me out. Thi is the question....here it goes.
In a Report in ReportPainter, I have in the General Data Selection the following selected characteristics. They are:
Ledger = 0
Record Type = 0
Version = 1
Fiscal Year = Z-ANOACT
Period = (1CPERIV, 1CPERIB)
So that we have the next screen in the Reports execution.
Fiscal Year : 2006
From Period : 1
To Period     : 12
Note:
*Z-ANOACT = Variable so that with a user-exit calculates the actual year. Right now is 2006.
*1CPERIV = This From-Period Variable is referenced to CCSS Table and PERBL Field Name. Its default value is 1.
*1CPERIB = This To-Period Variable is referenced to CCSS Table and PERBL Field Name.
Its default value is 12. Rigth now, we are in the fiscal month 5 (November).
Id like to filtrate information from January (2006) to September (2007). I mean I work with the fiscal calendar because the information to get from the table is saved due to this calendar.
The Fiscal Calendar is from July to June:
July = 1
August = 2
September = 3
June = 12
How I can accommodate my variables or what I am doing wrong so that I can select information from periods 7 to 12, 2006 ( January to June, 2006) and information from periods 1 to 3, 2007 (July to September, 2007) having the screen cited above and having the information selected added.
I cannot do it with the criteria selection cited above because I only have a year and a range of periods and my end-user doesnt want to run my report twice:
One run with periods 7 to 12, 2006 and
Another run with periods 1 to 3, 2007
Hed like something in my screen like this
Fiscal Year = 2006
From period = 7
To Period     = 12
Fiscal Year = 2007
From period = 1
To Period     = 3
And to get the report added.
Many Thanks if you know anything that can help me, please let me know.

ABDUL: I understand the ABAP Code but the information is saved in the table according to the fiscal calendar.
Fiscal Calendar Number of the MonthYear
January             7                    2006
February            8                    2006
March               9                    2006

November            5                    2007
December            6                    2007
Normally, We are in November 2006 (month=11, year 2006).
However, fiscally; We are November 2007 (month=5, year=2007).
Important Notes:
     The information is saved according to the fiscal calendar in the table.
     My end-user wants to filtrate the information from January to November . I mean
Actual Year : 2006               Actual Year   : 2007
From   Period:      7     AND           From    Period:      1
To       Period:     12               To        Period:       5
I understand you told me about the ABAP code, for example my characteristics in the general data selection are:
Actual Year : 2006
From   Period: 7
To       Period: 5   (I would have an error here because From-Period Variable is greater than To-Period Variable)
According the ABAP code you told me, this would be:
Actual Year : 2006
From   Period: 1
To       Period: 11
If I run the report with these last parameters you told me, report painter only would add information from year 2006 and fiscal months 1 to 11 (July to May except June). We dont want this, that we want is :
Actual Year : 2006               Actual Year   : 2007
From   Period:      7     AND           From    Period:      1
To       Period:     12               To        Period:       5
How can I do this?? My email is [email protected] or [email protected]
Right now, the end-user runs the report twice and adds the information in excel. One run for :
Actual Year : 2006
From   Period:      7
To       Period:     12
And other run with:
Actual Year   : 2007
From    Period:      1
To        Period:       5
But the question is how you can do it with only a run and in this way:
Actual Year : 2006               Actual Year   : 2007
From   Period:      7     AND           From    Period:      1
To       Period:     12               To        Period:       5
Thanks if someone can help me!!
