  • How to see relationships between a cost center and positions?

    Hello All,
    I would like to see all positions attached to a cost center. Normally, I would just go to pp01 transaction, choose Obj. type 'K', enter the cost center number and displayed all relationships.
    However, this cannot be done because cost centers are external objects for HR module.
    Could anyone tell me how I can see CC - all positions relations?
    Best regards

    Try HRP1001. If you don't already have it maintained, then PAR1 is your best bet. Typically, Positions are not assigned to cost centers directly. But with PAR1 you can pretty much see all position inheritance or assignments to cost centers. To narrow it down, use org structure search in PAR1 to restrict the report to your org unit only.
    Good luck and lets know if this helps.

  • Cost center line items by profit center

    Hi,
    We have an issue, where user has processed a document in FI with profit center "X" however the cost center of the document has profit center "Y" in the master data.
    In FI, accounting document showed against the profit center "X" with which user has processed.
    In CO document profit center was coming with "Y whcih is in cost center master data.
    There is a variance between FI and CO for profit centers.
    However profit center account is not completly configured, it is configured minimally. So GLPCA, GLPCT do not fetch data for the given profit centers, I do not have profit center appearing in CO line item reports. We are using ECC 6.0 version.
    Please help me to reconcile the difference.
    Regards,
    Ramesh.

    Hi,
    I think your case for SAP is not normal process. Normally, if user assign separate profit center which is different to profit center in the Cost Object, lets say the cost center, during the posting the system will issue message that the profit center is changed the profit center assigned in the Cost object. System would not accept two different profit center on one posting process.
    For example:
    Posting material using assigment cost center X  that contain profit center 1000, then also assign own profit center 1402.
    During posting, the system will issue message " the profit center is changed to 1000". This is what happen when there is discrepancy in profit center during posting.
    So, by having one profit center in a document,  the data that flow from FI will follow the assignment in the Cost Object.
    For this problem, I think you need to raise this issue to OSS.

    Hi one of the options to consider to avoid multiple lines in FAGLFLEXA against one customer open item is to activate Document split by Profit Center, in the new GL
    With document split documents in FAGLFLEXA will be like:
    Customer 300
    Rev PC -300
    Customer 200
    Rev PC2 -200
    Instead of the standard one, that are causing your issue:
    Customer +500
    Rev PC1 -300
    Rev PC2 -200
    hope it helps

  • Relationship between the "Stage" and the "preLoader"

    Other than the "preLoader" loading the project what is the relationship between the 2 elements in the project. Is the "preLoader" on the stage? is there a "stage" for the preloader ?
    In css markup in my html file to I need to deal with them seperately if I want to move there loaction?
    I use...
    sym.$("#Stage").css({"margin": "auto"})
    in compReady to center my stage. I tried do this with the preloader but it doesn't work. The stage is centered but the preloader off to the left.  Is there some code I can add to the project so my preloader will allways center in the same location where my stage is placed?
    If I'm using html css markup to place my "stage" how do I address the preloader so it's goverened by the same markup ?
    Also maybe this should be a seperate post question, but how would i add a timer to report preload times to the console ?
    Thanks
    Joel H

    That doesn't work all the time and sometimes it works with stage but not the preloader, especialy if I want to center vertically also like
    <style>
    #Stage {
            width:350px;
            height:350px;
            position:absolute;
            left:50%;
            top:50%;
            margin:-175px 0 0 -175px;
    </style>
    this doesn't work. But if I apply the same markup to a wrapper div it does work. like
    <style>
    #StageWrapper {
            width:350px;
            height:350px;
            position:absolute;
            left:50%;
            top:50%;
            margin:-175px 0 0 -175px;
    </style>
    then in the <body>
    <div id="StageWrapper">
    <div="Stage"  class="EDGE-blah-blah">
    </div></div>
    this works great, you just can't open your html file in edge again cause it screws your project all up.
    I was just wondering why if I was centering my stage with js in the project file why the preloader wasn't doing the same thing or how to do the same thing with js in the project file
    thanks

    Hi
    Please Ignore my above message.
    Thanks for ur Response.
    After ur valuble inputs we have added the required dependencies and sucessfully created the projects, then building of the  projects was also sucessfully done and  EAR file was created.
    We need to deploy this EAR file in CRM Application Server by using the interface NWDI.
    For Deploying the EAR into NWDI, we need to check-in the activites what i have created for EAR. once i check-in the activites ,the NWDI will deploy the EAR into CRM Application Server.
    In the Activity Log we are able to check the Activities as Suceeded but the Deployment column is not showing any status.
    When i  right click on my activity Id the deployment summery is also disabled.
    So finally my Question is that where can i get the deployment log file, and where can i check the deployment status for my application..
    Any pointers in this regard would be of great help..
    Awaiting for ur valuble Responses..

  • Relationship between Portal and back-end roles in business package

    Hi all,
    I wonder how technically works on the backend system when I install a BP for SAP EP. Let's say for example that I installed on the portal the business package for SRM. I will have on the Portal some roles configured (buyer, supplier, invoice manager, etc), and some iviews in them organized by pages and workest.
    How can I see the relations with those roles and the roles on the SRM backend system? And then: if I modify a standard role on the Portal, adding new functionalites (iviews), I do update the backend role? We are going to implement SSO, and users will be the same on Portal and backend system. But that also means I need to assign users to backend roles on the backend system, isn't it?
    I would be glad to you if someone can provide me also a link to a document explaining the relationshipe between backend roles management and portal roles management.
    Thanks a lot,
    Valentina

    To add.. no, you will not update a backend SRM role if you update an iView on the Portal. The Backend roles will always be assigned to the user via PFCG and do not change automatically with the Portal roles.
    This help document might help you understand the concept better (Look at the Permissions vs Authorisations section):
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c605c690-0201-0010-e8b5-94677245a46b
    Hope this helps. I am sure SAP/SDN library has many such documents that you can read through.

  • 1-to-1 Relationship Between UI and subVI Data Cluster

    Discussion continued from here.
    In summary:
    JackDunaway wrote:
    Yes,
    I can see clear benefits in implementing this Idea - that is, if your
    underlying datatype elements have a 1:1 relationship with the UI
    elements.
    I will
    illustrate this point by showing some potential flaws in your example:
    "Profile Running" and "Profile Complete" are mutually exclusive, no?
    Wouldn't it be better to have a single enum named "Profile" with three
    elements "Idle, Running, and Complete" for the underlying datatype?
    Having two mutually exclusive pieces of data in an underlying datatype
    is among my favorite of code smell indicators.
    Also, the underlying datatype probably only needs "Forward Miles" and
    "Reverse Miles" since "Total Miles" is derived. Exclude "Total Miles"
    from the underlying cluster and just show the sum for display.
    Another
    argument against using a 1:1 relationship: the customer now wants to
    multiply speed by -1 if Direction==Reverse and not show the Direction
    enum on the UI. The data source (the VI that generates the data) would
    need to be updated using your 1:1 relationship. Using underlying data
    different from the display data, only the data client (the UI front
    panel) needs to change. I would be much more inclined to service the UI
    FP for a cosmetic upgrade rather than tracing the data source back
    through the HMI framework, through TCP, back to the RT, back to FPGA...
    Basically...
    I question a perfectly overlapped Venn Diagram where the set of data
    shown to the user equals the dataset used for underlying data
    processing/messaging/storing. The underlying datatype should be as
    stripped and streamlined as possible, while the display datatype can
    inherit all the flair and post-processing that Upper Management wants to
    see in a UI.

    The indicators you see map to tags on the PLC.  That is, we were connecting through OPC to an application on a PLC that was written ~15 years ago.  I have a VI where I read a bunch of SVs (Shared Variables).  Each SV is bound through OPC to a PLC tag.  In the interest of disclosure, two 16-bit tags are required to represent each 32-bit mileage number.  In the same subVI, I read each set of mileage tags, convert, and feed my subVI cluster indicator.  The same is true for wheel size:  three bits get converted to the enum.  Regardless, though, I have one subVI that reads SVs and outputs the same "underlying data" cluster that is seen on the UI.  The UI has a "Faults" cluster full of fault Booleans that follows the same logic.  When the user configures a profile of steps, they do so via an array of "step" clusters (although the cluster look is hidden for aesthetics).  It's the same thing as above except we write tags instead of reading them.
    In my case, each set of 16-bit tags is worthless as two 16-bit numbers.  They are only useful as a 32-bit mileage, so I don't pass around the raw 16-bit data.  The same is true for the wheel size bits. My software can just as easily (in fact, more easily) operate on the enum.  So, the underlying cluster from the subVI is programmatically useful and applicable to the UI.  I would guess that the same is true for a lot of RT applications, where the read VI can have some intelligence to process the data into useful / applicable clusters.
    There are going to be cases where "Upper Management" would like to see "flair and post-processing" as you say.  Your speed illustration is a good example of this.  There are also instances where the cluster works fine on the UI the way it is (like this one and many others that we've seen).

    "Profile Running" and "Profile Complete" are mutually exclusive, no?
    Wouldn't it be better to have a single enum named "Profile" with three
    elements "Idle, Running, and Complete" for the underlying datatype?

    Did you mean "not" mutually exclusive?  We combined 3 "dependent" (not mutually exclusive) Booleans into an enum for Wheel Size, as I mentioned above.  Not sure now why we went the other way with these two (this was 2 years ago).  In any event, with regard to UI representation, I still pass a cluster out of my read-raw-data-and-process-into-cluster subVI up to the applicable queued state machines and to the UI.

    Having two mutually exclusive pieces of data in an underlying datatype
    is among my favorite of code smell indicators.

    Working with applications written in ladder logic, it is not uncommon to see separate Booleans that indicate the same condition.  This seems to be especially true when safety is a concern.  That is, ladder Coil A ON and Coil B OFF == switch open.  Coil A OFF and Coil B ON == switch closed.  If you ever read OPC tags from Coil A and Coil B and the two are the same, you know the ladder is in transition (hasn't updated the tags).  Throw that point out and read again.
    I, too, appreciate our back-and-forths.  Good discussion.

    Separate Views from Implementation for Strict Type Defs

    Thanks for replying, Jason. Let me see if I can craft a coherent response after getting back up to speed...
    (...later)
    OK, let's go. I'm going to fully agree with you that LabVIEW imposes a strange constraint unique from most other languages where a Typedef defines two things: the underlying data structure, and also the view. A Strict Typedef should be more accurately deemed the Datatype-View-Definition, and a Typedef would be more accurately called the Datatype-Definition-and-View-Suggestion. And to be clear, there are two types of views: the programmer's view (a SubVI look and feel) and the UI view (what the user and Upper Management sees). (Finally, I admit I'm ignorant whether view or View is more a more appropriate term)
    Linking the programmer's view to the datatype is perfectly fine with me, and based on your original Idea I think we both agree that's OK. I think we run into a disagreement where you have loosely tied the concept of "Strict TD" to "UI View".
    Historically, I have used Strict Typedefs for the programmer's view (SubVIs), since I like to maintain a "functional UI" at the SubVI level. I don't use type definitions on User Interfaces - only Controls. That's the reason your Idea does not appeal to me, but perhaps if your Idea were implemented, it would appeal to me since View and Implementation would be divorced as separate entities within the Type Definition. (Does that classify as a Catch-22?) So, you're Idea is fundamentally suggesting that Type Definition .ctl files should be more accurately called "a container that holds both a Type Definition and any number of View Definitions as well".
    Fundamentally, I think I finally understand the gist of your Idea: "let's ditch this weird constraint where View and Datatype are inextricably defined together in one file", and for that, I'll give Kudos to the original Idea. I got really tied up with the example you used to present the Idea, and plus I'm still learning a lot.
    Additional thoughts:
    This Idea reminds me of another: Tag XControl as Class View
    We've still got some arguing to do on a 1:1 relationship between underlying datatype and UI presentation, so put your mean face back on: 
    Since our last conversation, interestingly, I have been on an anti-Typedef kick altogether.  Why don't you drop some feedback on my attempt at a completely typedef-free UI framework?
