Reg : Milestone / Periodic and RRB Billing Configuration.

Hi SAP Gurus
we are integrating SD-PS to get back revenues on the project automatically. We are using WBS element as a real object at the item level of the Sales Order. There are going to be three kinds of Billing types: Periodic, Milestone and RRB (T&M and Travel). So we probably need an Order type and Item categories for different billing types. Travel expenses needs to be part of the Sales Order. For RRB, DIP profile needs to be configured to capture no. of hours worked on the project and travel expenses.
Please let me know what are things needs to be configured for this process. and how to configure the Milestone/ Periodic and RRB billing type.
Thanks

Differnce between periodic and Resourse billing.

Differnce between periodic and Resourse billing, and how to do it in sap?..
Can anyone suggest me step wise
Thanks in advance

Periodic billing is used when you want to bill the customer at different points of time based on the periodicity or progress of the work. Milestone billing can be used for this type of billing purposes when you want to have billing control from the project.
Resource billing is based on the resource consumption for the particular activities. Dynamic Item Processor (DIP) profile is used for the resource related billing.

In Third party Item category plays major role.Third party Item catogery in TAS.
    In the material u have to the Item cat group as BANS and create the material.If u r using NORM then make assinment in VOV4 as follows
Saty ItcGrp Usg HLevItca Dfltc mltca
OR   NORM -        -           TAN TAS
So that u can change the iteam category and do the sales order and save.In VA02 u will get the PR in schdule lines with this u can do PO then vl10b,MIGO,MIRO then finally u have to do order related billing.
INTER COMPANY:
This is STO beteen company to compnay ( EX: 1000 & 1100)
In this u haveto create 1100 as customer in 1000 sales area and 1000 has to create as vendor in 1100.

How to add FISCAL YEAR, Period and Day to cube.

hi,
I am using SD EXTRACTORS (2LIS_11_VAITM, 2LIS_11_VAKON, 2LIS_12_VCITM and 2LIS_13_VDITM) and directly updating each corresponding ODS and cube.
All the extractors only have FISCAL VARIANT has the time characteristic. So, all my ODS contains only one time char - fiscal variant and other dates (liek document created date etc. (not a time char)).
Now, I want to use fiscal period, fiscal year and fiscal day in my cube. I have added these time char in my cube.
My question:
1. how to get FISCAL YEAR, FISCAL PERIOD and FISCAL DAY get updated. Do I need to map to document created date in update rules or Do I need to use some functional module.
Pls note I am bringing only FISCAL VARIANT from R/3 into ODS and then to CUBE.
PLS REPLY.

thanks sundar..i got your point..but I have one question
All the cubes (sales, sales condition and billing) have the sales order number (VBUK-VBELN) and item number (POSNR-VBUK). But info objects used for these fields in sales cube and sales condition cube are same but for billing it is not same.
Can I combine all cubes (sales order, sales condition, billing) in muliti provider.
1. Sales order cube (from VAITM)
           Sales order number (VBUK-VBELN) -- (0DOC_NUMBER)
           Sales Item (VBUK-POSNR)              -- (0S_ORD_ITEM)
Date : Document created date (VBAK-AUDAT) -- 0DOC_DATE
2. Sales Condition cube (from VAKON)
           Sales order number (VBUK-VBELN) -- (0DOC_NUMBER)
           Sales Item (VBUK-POSNR)              -- (0S_ORD_ITEM)
Date: Document created date (VBAK-AUDAT) -- 0DOC_DATE
Key field: Netprice (VBAP-NETWR) -- 0NET_VALUE
3. Delivery Cube (from VCITM)
         Sales order number (VBUK-VBELN)   -- (0DELIV_NUMB)
         Item   (VBUK-POSNR)                         -- (0DELIV_ITEM)
Date: Delivery Date :LIKP-WADAT_IST      -- 0ACT_GI_DTE
4. Billing Cube (from VDITM)
          Sales order number (VBUK-VBELN) -- (0BILL_NUM)
          Sales Item (VBUK-POSNR)              -- (0BILL_ITEM)
Date: Billing Date: (VBRK-FKDAT)             -- (0BILL_DATE)
Key field: Net price (VBRP-NETWR)       -- 0NETVAL_INV
I want to combine above cubes. If I combine, Will I get correct data??????

Using fiscal period and Fiscal quarter reporting seemlessly in a BI Query

Hi,
We have a very specific issue. Reporting the Fiscal Period( in our
case we have 53 fiscal periods) and Fiscal Quarter( we have 4 quarters)
in the same query seamlessly as we would have done using Calander Month
and Calander quarter in other reports that uses SAP delivered standard
time dimensions.
However unlike the Calander time dimension (SAP provided all
possible...0CALDAY, 0CALWEEK, 0CALMONTH, 0CALQUARTER, 0CALYEAR) where you have all of these inside your info provider, you can get
aggregation on week, month, quarter etc in your query seamlessly, The Fiscal Year/Period offers a problem in doing report seamlessly.
When we delve into Fiscal realm, SAP only provided with 0FISCVARNT,
0FISCPER, 0FISCYEAR and a special period 0FISCPER3. It doesn't provide
anything like 0FISCQUARTER etc and rightly so, because you can have
only one 0FISCVARNT in the Time dimension and can have related periods
(0FISCPER) only for a Row of data in your infocube. For example if you need to model as per the Fiscalweek, you can create a custom Fiscal year variant (Say z1) and can configure to have only 53 periods (Mapped to 0FISCPER) representing
53 Fiscal WEEK. Similarly for mapping Fiscal Quarter you can create
another fiscal year variant (Say Z2) and have only 4 periods (mapped to
0FISCPER also in this case) to represent the 4 Fiscal Quarter. However
the issue is that for one record you can only map either of those and
not both since you can only have one Fiscal year variant in one row of
data in the info provider.
For example
If I have two rows OF DATA coming from different sources (One FOR
Fiscal Week and another for Fiscal Quarter) I can have the following in
my info provider.
1> Example data in Fiscal
Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0FISCVARNT 0FISCPER Quantity
X ...... y .....10/22/07 ....Z1 .... 432007 .......10
X ....... Y .....10/22/07 ....Z2 .... Q32007 .......20
The issue is how do I report the Quantity in a query in Quarter Q3 as
(10 + 20 = 30) since both the rows corresponds to FISCAL Q32007?
(Please note that Fiscal week 432007(For VARIANT Z1 ) actually is
Fiscal Quarter Q32007( For Fiscal Variant Z2) as per our
configuration of Fiscal Year Variant configuration Z1 and Z2)
The same is very simple when I have infoprovider with CALENDAR Time
dimensions , for example if we dont have any fiscal reporting
requirement and just report on calendar time dimension the record in
the info provider would look like the following ( example)
2> Example Data in CALENDAR DIMENSION
Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0CALWEEK 0CALQUARTER Quantity
X ........ y .......10/22/07 .......432007 .......Q32007 .......10
X ........Y .......10/22/07 ....... 442007 .......Q32007 .......20
Here we can use both 0CALQUARTER and get the data aggregated on the
quarter level in addition to the 0CALWEEK.
To solve this issue, One option that we are thinking of Using 0CALQUARTER to represent the
Fiscal Quarter and use Update rule to populate this one. For example
THE example 1 can be as follows.
1A> Example of using 0CALQUARTER along with 0FISCVARNT and 0FISCPER
Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0FISCVARNT 0FISCPER 0CALQUARTERE Quantity
X .......y .......10/22/07 ..............Z1 .......432007 .......Q32007 ..............10
X .......Y .......10/22/07 ..............Z2 .......Q32007 .......Q32007 ..............20
In this case we would populate the 0CALQUARTER by the actual Fiscal
Quarter and then can use both as per example 2 above. But this is not a
smooth option since we have various other info providers to join and
report based on solely Fiscal Quarter etc
I am certain that this issue have already been solved by somebody as this bound to happen in any finance application.
Would appreciate if we can get some light on this regarding the data modelling, reporting etc.
Thanks
Arun G.

You have yourself suggested a solution, which is fine,
Other option is to have a new characteristic Fiscal Qtr in all the infoproviders ans update the same using a routine in the updaterule depending on the fiscal year variant.
for eg. for transaction with variant Z1 in one case you can say if fiscal week 01 between 01 to 13 the Fiscal Qtr should be update with1 and if it is between 14 to 26 then update fiscal qtr with 2 and so on.
For other Variants Z2 you write a different login in the routine ans so on.
so for all the data irrespective of the variant you will have the qtr as either 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 and you can report on this fiscal qtr.
assign points if it helps.

Billing Configuration

Hi Gurus,
We have a new process in place due to which we do require to have billing doc. Earlier the Z item category was maintained as not relevant for billing.

Normal Sales Order Cycle:-
Step 1: Sales Document Type
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents >
Sales Document Header:
1. Sales Document Type:The sales document types represent the different business transactions, such as Inquiry, Quotation, Sales Order, etc. To create new sales order type, always copy as with reference to similar sales order. If possible use standard sales order.
2. Define Number Ranges For Sales Documents: Maintain number range with discussion with core team.
3. Assign Sales Area To Sales Document Types:
A. Combine sales organizations / Combine distribution channels / Combine divisions: Ensure to maintain these, else Sales Order creation will give error.
B. Assign sales order types permitted for sales areas: Assign only required Sales Order Types to required Sales Area. This will minimize selection of Sales Order Type as per sales area.
Sales Document Item:
1. Define Item Categories: If possible use Standard Item Category. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Item Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving item category: Sales Document Type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher Level Item Category = Item Category
Schedule Line:
1. Define Schedule Line Categories: If possible use Standard Schedule Lines. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Schedule Line Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving Schedule Line: Item Category + MRP Type / No MRP Type.
Step 2:
IMG > Logistic Execution > Shipping > Deliveries >
1. Define Delivery Types: If possible use Standard Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Item Categories for Deliveries: If possible use Standard Item Categories for Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
3. Define Number Ranges for Deliveries: Ensure to maintain number range.
Step 3:
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Billing >
1. Define Billing Types: If possible use Standard Billing Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Number Range For Billing Documents: Ensure to maintain number range.
3. Maintain Copying Control For Billing Documents: Maintain relevant copy controls such as Sales Order to Billing, Deliver to Billing, etc.
Note: Ensure that Copy Control settings are done
Sales Order to Sales Order (QT --> OR): VTAA
Sales Order to Delivery (OR --> LF): VTLA
Sales Order to Billing (OR --> F1): VTFA
Delivery to Billing(LF --> F2): VTFL
Billing to Sales Order (F2 --> RE): VTAF
The configuration differs from scenario to scenario & requirement of the client.

can anybody tel me what do you mean by Time profile and how to configure it.
we are using Capacity requiremtn planning.

prashanth

Hi Prashanth,
Time profile can be customized using transaction OPD2.
It contains the time horizons for importing the data records as well as for evaluation and planning.
the planning horizon must be smaller or equal to the database read period.

Significance of IN PERIOD and FOR PERIOD

Hi experts can any one explain me
What is Retro calculation? and significance of IN PERIOD and FOR PERIOD while Retro calculation. If possible please explain with an example.
Thanks in advance.
vamsi.

Hi,
Retro calculation done automatically by SAP \
weh you make changes in master data in back date retro run will take place.
The retroactive accounting date or limit determines the exact date until which master data and time data can be changed in the payroll past. The retroactive accounting limit is based on the following values:
1.Per payroll area (payroll control record): Earliest possible retroactive accounting period
2.Employee hiring date
3.Per Ijndividual employee the feild Earliest personal retroactive accounting date Payroll Status infotype0003.
If the date set for each payroll area differs from the date specified for the employee, the later date is used.
The most important thing to remeber is with regard to retroactive accounting limit for an employee is the hire date of the employee., one can neither run retro from a date prior to the Hiring date nor he can make any changes to master data prior to hiring date
Retro is triggered in a payroll if u hav done master data change of an employee. This means 1) Any change in an infotype triggers retro. 2) Retro is also field dependent in an infotype.
This is configured using view V_T582A under frame "Retro Accounting Trigger".
Also note,
1) Control record - PA03 contains earliest retro date, meaning retro cannot be run previous to that date for all employees in that payroll area.
2) Infotype 0003 contains a field "earliest master data change" meaning during next payroll run retro will run from that particular period onwards for that employee.
3) Infotype 0003 contains a field "Earl.pers. RA date" meaning retro cannot run beyond that date for that employee. (this field values are stored in table PA0003)

In order to do this in WebI, you would need to do the following:

1. Create tables in a database to hold the data.
2. Create an application to pull the data out of the CMS using the Query Language.
3. Create a universe to read the data.
4. Create your report(s).

To get this information through the Query Builder, you would have to run a query something like this to get the data for each report:

Select SI_ID, SI_NAME, SI_PARENT_ID 
from CI_INFOOBJECTS 
where SI_KIND = 'Webi' and SI_INSTANCE_OBJECT = 0

You have to build Location based on parent ID values - for each report you would run this query for the returned SI_PARENTID value until SI_PARENTID = 0

Select SI_NAME, SI_PARENT_ID 
from CI_INFOOBJECTS 
where SI_ID = [SI_PARENT_ID value from the previous query.]

To get the recurring schedules, you need to query based on the SI_ID for each report:

Select count(SI_ID) 
from CI_INFOOBJECTS 
where SI_PARENT_ID = [SI_ID value for the report] 
and SI_SCHEDULE_STATUS = 9

Change the Schedule_Status to 1 to get the count of the successful instances.

To get the person who created the schedule, get the SI_OWNERID of the instance and run this query:

Select SI_NAME 
from CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS 
where SI_ID = [SI_OWNERID for the schedule.] 

And so on....As you can see, it gets pretty complicated.

You can't just query the CMS database directly because almost all of this information is stored in a proprietary binary format in BLOB fields in the database.

Software Updates Failing - Group Policy Overwritten - Server and Policy NOT CONFIGURED

I have seen a few posts about this issue and group policy overwriting the settings needed by SCCM with the wrong WSUS server. I checked the wuahandlerlog and found this error but it didnt have the server information.
"Group policy settings were overwritten by a higher authority (Domain Controller) to: Server and Policy NOT CONFIGURED"
The only coputer policy that applies to this system does not have WSUS entries in it. Windows update runs ok, and I deleted the WSUS registry keys that were set by a script and reinstall the client still getting the same error. I dont see any GPO local or domain, or reg keys that are setting anything. I have 10 other servers is the same AD container that this is working perfecly on.......
Suggestions????

Check out this GPO:
Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Group Policy:
"Turn off Local Group Policy Objects processing"
The help text:
"This policy setting prevents Local Group Policy Objects (Local GPOs) from being applied.
By default, the policy settings in Local GPOs are applied before any domain-based GPO policy settings. These policy settings can apply to both users and the local computer. You can disable the processing and application of all Local GPOs to ensure that only
domain-based GPOs are applied.
If you enable this policy setting, the system does not process and apply any Local GPOs.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Local GPOs continue to be applied.
Note: For computers joined to a domain, it is strongly recommended that you only configure this policy setting in domain-based GPOs. This policy setting will be ignored on computers that are joined to a workgroup."
