Rep deseign question-- changing from (W_DAY_D) to Fiscal Calendar (M_CAL %

I am trying to find out some information on Rep design for a customer. The question is, for a given RPD file, with Dim - Date Dimension that is pointing to W_DAY_D (default Calendar Data), can the Source in RPD for Dim - Date Dimension be changed to Fiscal? Meaning, changing from (W_DAY_D) to Fiscal Calendar (M_CAL % tables).
Please advise
Thank you
Ignacio

Hi Ignacio,
I am going to assume that you are referring to the tables W_MCAL_DAY_D and W_DAY_D from the BI Apps OBAW data warehouse.
In my humble opinion, there are three main things (and whole bunch of minor things) you want to consider when you change out table sources.
1) Make sure that the grains are the same. In your case, the table grains are both at the day level, so you are fine there.
2) Make sure that you can map the primary key to the primary key. In this case W_MCAL_DAY.MCAL_DAY_DT = W_DAY_D.DAY_DT
3) Make sure all other columns and foreign keys have been mapped. In this case a major secondary key is W_MCAL_DAY.MCAL_DAY_DT_WID = W_DAY_D.ROW_WID. You'll need to map the rest of the important columns yourself.
All in all, I think you can definitely swap the two tables out. Just execute caution and make sure you have a backup/recovery plan in case you need to revert.
Good luck and if you found this post useful, please award points!
Best regards,
-Joe

Changing from a Fiscal year to a calendar year

Hi Everyone,
We need the supporting documentation, guidance to change from a Fiscal year to a calendar year. Also please share your experience, suggestions, thoughts on this?
Currently, our year-end is SEP 30th, now there is a requirement to change the year end from SEP 30th to DEC 31st.
N:> Keithley GL Superuser USA > Setup > Financials > Calendars > Accounting
Calendar is already associated to the set of books and the budget year for 2011 is already opened in the Production instance
We entered the budget through a spreadsheet upload using ADI. We can roll back the budget and reenter if required
We have already gone through the metalink note IDs 102460.1, 134362.1, and also the below document from Oracle Support
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15799_01/books/OnDemOLH/index.h...,
Below are our open questions at this point
1) Can you please let us know what would happen if the transition closes on the middle of the month
Example: We will close the month end, year end at the end of the month but what would happen if we close at the middle of the month (say DEC 15th instead of DEC 31st)
2) Will it be short? From 1st October 2010 - 31st December 2010.
Or will it be long? From 1st October 2010 - 31st December 2011.
Can you please let us know the pros and cons for each of these?
3) According to the Metalink note Id 102460.1, the application will prevent you from making changes to calendar the unless you meet the following qualifications:
a) All the periods to be changed have a status of Never Opened.
This condition does not match to the current situation at the clients place as we don’t have the status "Never Opened" for any of the periods in the accounting calendar in
subledgers
b) A budget year that includes the periods to be changed is no t yet opened.
Budget year is already opened for the year 2011 at the clients placec) An encumbrance year that includes the periods to be changed is not yet opened.
“Encumbrance” is not applicable at the clients placed) The periods to be changed have not yet been copied from the GL Calendar to Project
“Projects” is not applicable at the clients placeThanks

Copy fiscal year vairiant changes from R3 to SCM

Hello Gurus;
We have a requirement to change our fiscal year start and end dates for the current and future year. We are using program "RSIMPCUST" to copy changes in fiscal calendar from R3 to SCM.
My question is : Do we need to de-activate the demand planning area and then copy the Fiscal calendar changes and re-initilise and copy the data from back up cube Or we just have to copy the FY changes from R3 to SCM and re-initialize the DP planning area.
Thanks in advance for guidance in advance.
Thanks and regards
Rajesh

Why de-activate planning area ? - Because, we are making structural changes against which data already resides in planning area.
Now, before making changes, you need to plan the back up of data, make changes in FYV, and then load data into planning area with new FYV.
Before, you go about, please study below points and plan accordingly -
1) Changes in both fiscal year variant (Months & weeks)
2) Storage bucket profile
Importantly, note that when loading data from back up cube, make sure it is loaded at month and week level (i.e. u2013 exclude Fiscal variant bucket), as the fiscal variant bucket mapping to month and week will have changed awhen you try to load the data in planning area (post FYV changes). Hence, post data loading in planning area, it should appear against new FY buckets when viewed by user.
(Example u2013 Previously M1-W1-F1 = 10, M1-W2-F1 = 20, Hence, F1 = 30. After changes you make, say, M1-W1 as F1 and M1-W2 as F2, user should see F1=10 and F2-20).

Silly question, maybe. I want to change from Verizon DSL to cable, but cable company doesn't supply router. can I use my Airport Extreme as wireless router?

We currently have the following wireless home-network configuration, powered by Verizon DSL.
2 macbook pro’s
1 emachine
HP PhotoSmart 6122 all-in-one printer
Apple TV
Apple Airport Extreme Base Port A 1408
Westell 7500 router
Thinking I’d get wider wireless coverage throughout my 2 bedroom home, I purchased the Airport Extreme. It is connected to the router via its sole usb port. The result was only a tiny increase in speed, and no increase in coverage, so I don’t know why I have it.
We now want to change from DSL to cable, thus ditching Verizon. Our new cable provider supplies the cable box, but no router for wireless networking.
Here are my questions.
Can I use the Airport Extreme (AE) as a wireless router?
If so, how should I hook it up? Should the usb cable go from the AE to the cable box, and all the other devices connect wirelessly?
If not, how should I be using the AE to some advantage? What can I get out of the investment?
Thank you very much for your help! Beatriz

What I wrote has nothing to do with what the cable company charges for their installation. And, usually they will help with the router setup even if you supply your own router. I don't know what they will charge for the modem.
Note that you need to get just a modem. You don't want a modem/router combination. That will make using an AEBS effectively nearly impossible. You will need to ask specifically for just a standalone modem, and that you will supply your own router.

Status keeps changing from invisible to online: why the issue is ignored?

There is a serious issue raised in the parallel thread, which is critical for many people: "Status keeps changing from invisible to online" (initiated on ‎16-11-2014 by b.agne, Mac section). In short, when starting using a device, the Skype status changing from "invisible" to "online" - sometimes just for a moment, though enough for others to notice you. These affects very much any type of devices. I am sure the issue has already led to multiple personal crisises and potentially financial losses due to buseness partnership issues (I came close to that myself, and now use anything but Skype for business). The question is: WHY the issue is completely ignored by Skype, Microsoft and expert comunity? Please post the solution if anybody knows how to fix the issue, or suggest how to make Microsoft to know that it should be fixed. Kind regard...

Hi, I also have the same issue. I change the status to Invisible and a later on it is already as "Online", without having even touched/opened Skype. The only way that I see this may happen is that I have the app installed on the smartphone, but before it never had this issue, but from some month ago it started. Any correction or suggestion to work around this issue? Regards

Changing from Periodic inventory system to SAP

Hi All,
I have an accounting questions regarding company that switching from Periodic Inventory system to SAP's perpetual inventory system.
For company that practices Periodic Inventory System, the method to calculate cost of goods sold = opening stock balances + purchases - closing stock balances. All these is reflected in the P&L statement.
When they switch to SAP, do they need to enter all these figures into SAP for the opening balances?
As SAP will not have opening balance stock, closing stock and purchases accounts, do they have to create these accounts in P&L just to take in the balances?
Does anyone have implemented for company that changing from periodic to perpetual inventory system? How do you take in the opening balances? if possible please give example, thanks in advance.
Regards,
MH

Hi All,
Thanks for the reply. But what is the variance that you guys are talking about? Take example:
Old system:
Opening Stock balance = $ 5,000
+Purchases = $20,000
-Closing Stock balance = $ 9,000
Balance = $16,000
The amount that goes into Asset is Closing Balance $9,000 and the amount goes to P&L as COGS is $ 16,000? The rest for $20,000 and $ 5,000 can be ignore?
Thanks in advance if anyone can answer my question here.

MH

How can I change from a free account to a paid account?

How can I change from a free account to a paid account?

Tom gave you the answer to your question.
if you want a Paid book account, follow the process outlined in the link supplied.
Apple iBooks store set out these requirements and they do not deviate from them for Individuals.
You need a new email address for a new account. You need an EIN USA tax file number if you are not a US citizen or US resident. You need to submit bank and credit card details...these can be the same as your iTunes account.
However much you find the requirements difficult, Apple do not make exceptions.

Is there a PS setting where it can read my Canon Mark 3 5D's monochrome setting so that the files will also appear in monochrome instead of colour? Or do I have to change from RAW each time to Monochrome within PS (even if I have set up for Monochrome in

Is there a PS setting where it can read my Canon Mark 3 5D's monochrome setting so that the files will also appear in the same monochrome structure (instead of appearing in colour as it is now when i open in PS, not even monochrome)? Or do I have to change from RAW each time to Monochrome within PS (even if I have set up for Monochrome in my 5D)?
1. Basically I am taking photos with a monochrome setting with my 5D and the screen shows monochrome.
2. when i import this onto my computer and open with PS, it opens in colour.
3. when I change this to Monochrome in PS. (It cannot read my monochrome setting with my preference of the greyscale mix when I viewed it on my 5D)
4. my question is: is there a way so that PS can read the monochrome setting from my 5D and display the same monochrome setting as my 5D instead of a different one from PS.
Lily

you need camera raw 6.7 or better.
i don't know what version of ps you have so i can't say if it can be updated to use that, but update anyway.

Error "Status change from READY to COMMITTED is not allowed"

Dear experts,
once again SAPs workflow environment drives me crazy with mysterious error messages.
Some time ago I posted a question here concerning the problem that I cannot put back a workitem by using function module SAP_WAPI_PUT_BACK_WORKITEM due to a lock on this workitem which has been set right after it has been double clicked in the business workplace workflow inbox:
[How can I put back a workitem before I'm back in the business workplace?;
Since I do not want to dequeue the lock for the workitem in my application (where the user finds the appropriate detail information along with the function buttons for approval, rejection and F3/BACK) I tried it with calling a POPUP_TO_CONFIRM ("Do you want to put back the workitem?") directly from within the BO-method, right after returning from the FM that called my application. From here (the popup then shows in front of the business workplace instead of the application) the locking doesn't seem to be a problem any more! But whatever I do after the users decision to put the WI back - calling the FM SAP_WAPI_PUT_BACK_WORKITEM or trying to leave the method with macro EXIT_CANCELLED - leads to the error message "Status change from READY to COMMITTED is not allowed" and the workitem changes to status ERROR, too. This message seems to be bull***t, since the status of the item is supposed to go back to READY.
Does anybody have experience to help me on that ?
Thanks in advance
regards
Andreas

Hello Andreas,
Ah, sorry, there was so much talk about user decisions that I assumed you were using a standard decision task.
Still, I would be extra careful of changing the way workflow usually works because you have an unknown target audience that are based on the standard.
The standard SAP philosophy is quite simple: cancel/F3 or do nothing and it stays reserved. If you do not want it reserved, you need to perform an action. This is based on a majority of processes: in most cases when you execute a work item you will also be the one who is going to completed it. Replacing it is the lesser used of the two alternatives, therefore it is the only one that requires an action on the part of the user.
Again, this is intended as constructive input. Strange quirks and unusual behaviour tend to add a black mark to software if they do not make things easier to use. In many environments users are not even aware of the reserve/replace business, so there you would be adding an additional layer of complexity.
Personally I would find an exit popup annoying as a regular workflow user - regular decisions can be approved with one click, or I can back out with a single click if I need to make a phone call or look up some info before approving - but with this new-fangled thing I've got an extra button to click and an extra thing to think about. This is especially the case in a payment approval scenario where you may have users in some departments who may approve hundreds of payments each week.
My suggestion would be to leave it like that. By all means put an option into the user decision to put it back or to 'un-reserve' it (and loop round if the user chooses it). That way you are adding value and not clicks.
Cheers,
Mike

Mass change of posting date/fiscal year in LIV parked invoices

Hi,
We have OSS note 99775 (program ZFSAP2_B) for mass changing posting date and fiscal year for FI parked documents but I can not use this to change posting date for LIV parked invoices.
Did anyone have any idea how to mass change the posting date of LIV invoices? any NOTE or PROGRAM?
I tried to create a BDC using FBV4, which in turn calls MIR4, but system is over writing initial line item amount and qty from PO.
I can read initial invoice line item values and over write again but I dont think this is how I should do.
Please advice.
Thank you all and best Regards
Vijay Goli

Hi
Thank you very much for your input.I modified the program ZFSAP2_B given by sap and it worked fine for LIV invoices also.
When I used this program in 2007 for FV60 documents the document key was changed without raising the event FIPP.CHANGED. But this year when we changed the posting date the system triggered the CHANGED event and as a result of this event the workflow came to the starting point. We did not make any chages to workflow template during 2007. Any idea what could have casued this event to trigger?
Thanks

Extracting changes from Change Master and importing to another BOM

Dear All,
Our client uses ECM and manages two BOM's the Engineering BOM and Production BOM.
The Engineering BOM s are changed through change number. We need to import these changes to the production BOM, (only the changes) through another change number
This means,
We have the Engineering BOM (No plant, usage 2) and Production BOM (Plant BOM with usage 1)with the same structure (BOM header is Z)
Header : Z
Position 1 :A Qty 1
Postion 2 : B Qty 1
Both initially had components A and B, each with Qty 1.
Now with a change number, the Engineering BOM is changed, a new component C is added, the quantity of A is revised to 2.
Now the Engineering BOM is
Header : Z, Plant ( blank) and Usgae 2
Position 1 :A Qty 2
Postion 2 : B Qty 1
Position 3 : C Oty 1
Our requirement is to extract the changes from the Change master, ie, the extract should say BOM header Z is changed,
New position 3 : C Qty 1,
Modified Position 1, Qty 2.
This should have only the changed information and we want to input this to the Production BOM, through another change number to change the Production BOM.
We want this process to be automated, in the sense, user enters the Production BOM header, Plant and usgae 1 and the new change number, then the BOM will be updated with the changes in the engineering BOM.
My Questions are
1- How to get an extract from the Change master with only the changes file, to a txt or xml or any format?
2- Apart from manually updating the Prodcution BOM by seeing the changes from Environment ->Reporting ->BOM changes of the Change master of the Engineering BOM, is there any other way to update the Production BOM only with the changes?
3- Ideally we want to import the changes to the Production BOM rather than deleting the items and again copying from Engineering BOM. What is best practice used in this scenario?
Any suggestions would be helpful
Regards,
Aby Thomas

Dear Mario,
Got ur point.. This is of course possible.. Practicallyboth the BOM's are not exactly identical. Tere is one more BOM apart from the Production BOM.
And there is a need to transfer the changes ( changes alone ) between BOM's.
Further more, there are interface from SAP to other systems, where they alos requires the BOM changes.. So the requirement arises, how to transfer the changes between BOM and also to other systems from SAP.,
If we do not have any interface from legacy PDM, how to extract the changes from the change master?
What is the general practise followed?
Regards,
Aby Thomas
