Resource costed flag to be checked.

Hi,
the issue started when we started seeing some transactions lying in receiving account but not getting costed against the WIP jobs..what I found was that the OSP resource used against that job was setup as non-costed..
As once the resource is defined we cannot make it costed as we have transactions haapended already against that resource.So is there any alternate solution that we can make the resource active instead of creating a new resource??
Thanks
Vasudha.

  • Resource cost / composite limit  --  translation

    Hi friends.
    I'm running Oracle EE 11.2 on Solaris 10.
    I'm digging into the use of composite limit to limit some of the resources that the report users can use on our OLTP database.
    Obviously, my intention is to prevent them from bringing down our OLTP database to its knees with some runaway or heavy reports.
    We all know how easy it is for report writers using Crystal Reports or some other tool to develop ad-hoc queries, joining views to views, etc.
    So, I figured I could create them a profile, (e.g., reports_profile) and limit their composite_limit.
    I checked out a couple of web pages and then it just got more confusing.
    Wondering if anyone has done this and figured it out and able to explain it easily.
    References:
    ALTER RESOURCE COST
    and
    CREATE PROFILE
    Any help would be appreciated.  I read the docs, but it is still confusing.

    Hi Justin.  Sorry if I was unable to make my question clear.
    The bottom line is that I would like to know specifically what value I should put for the composite limit to use for my new profile for the folks running reports so as not to bring our OLTP database to its knees during peak times.
    The problem is that the composite limit is not something simple like a percentage of total resources.  If it were, I could simply set composite limit to 30% of total resources and that would guarantee I would always have at least 70% of the available resources for the OLTP users.
    So, researching documents such as: 
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/statements_6010.htm
    It says:   COMPOSITE_LIMIT Specify the total resource cost for a session, expressed in service units. Oracle Database calculates the total service units as a weighted sum of CPU_PER_SESSION, CONNECT_TIME, LOGICAL_READS_PER_SESSION, and PRIVATE_SGA.
    Then, a link to Resource Cost:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/statements_2008.htm#i2227717
    It says:  (The alter resource cost) statement lets you apply weights to the four resources. Oracle Database then applies the weights to the value of these resources that were specified for a profile to establish a formula for calculating total resource cost. You can limit this cost for a session with the COMPOSITE_LIMIT parameter of the CREATE PROFILE statement.
    Oracle Database calculates the total resource cost by first multiplying the amount of each resource used in the session by the weight of the resource, and then summing the products for all four resources. For any session, this cost is limited by the value of the COMPOSITE_LIMIT parameter in the user's profile. Both the products and the total cost are expressed in units called service units.
    Then, Specify the weight of each resource. The weight that you assign to each resource determines how much the use of that resource contributes to the total resource cost. If you do not assign a weight to a resource, then the weight defaults to 0, and use of the resource subsequently does not contribute to the cost. The weights you assign apply to all subsequent sessions in the database.
    So, it all gets confusing determining the service units value to assign to composite limit.  (Oracle did not make this easy which I assume is why they came out with resource manager.)
    On another site, which I can not find now, it says that in order to come up with the right values for each resource of the composite limit formula, you have to monitor sessions over long periods of time, but it does not give details for what to monitor, or how to apply the values you capture.
    Any help would be appreciated, or perhaps suggest how to use resource management instead.  My concern with resource management is that if I understand it correctly, it is based on "services", and I don't know how to restrict users to only specific services that I would set up for them.

  • OSP resource cost debited in 'Purchase Price Variance'

    Hi all
    Can you help me how to fix the issue of 'OSP resource cost' debited in 'Purchase Price Variance' instead of WIP cost.
    Please note that the 'Standard Cost' in resource definition is disabled.
    Note that the costing followed is 'Average'.
    Thanks in advance for the help.
    regards
    Raffath

    Raffath,
    You veriy the rate in both resource window and in P.O, there may be a scope that P.O may be ammended and Resource rate may not be changed, this difference will be affected in PPV account.

  • Resources costing

    hello ,please help,i have defined full bom and wip cycle ,and i have I am using average costing,so finally when i went to the WIP value summary form I found that the material calculation is right according to the quantity ,but the resource have the folowing:
    EX : assembly quantity =100,
    material costing is right BUT
    resource costing =the right answer for 100 assembly+the cost for produce one assembly of that product.
    why??and how to solve that??please its urgent.
    thanks in advance.

    Hi Gill,
    Haven't you used the fiscal time in your second report, instead of time dimension?
    Also try to copy your report from the first to the second file with the organizer.
    The procedure is detailled

  • Resource - cost center - activity type

    Hello,
    I can see the link Resource - Cost center  (in the resource master data)
    I can see the link Activity type - cost element
    I can see where the activity type's planned cost is done, for such or such cost center
    I cannot see the relationship Resource - Activity type
    isn't there any direct link or is it only an indirect link, through the cost center
    Thanks for your help
    KR - Loï

    I need to post 2 diferent type of costs to 2 different accounts (cost elements) my question is what impact is if I mantain in one resource with cost center 1000 2 activity types, one is also linked to CC 1000 but the 2nd is linked to CC 2000
    In the costing tab at the Resource there is a field for the cost center so my question is what are de implication with this cost center and the link between the activity types and the cost centers
    you can maintain 2 cost element for two activity.
    But you can't combine two cc in one resource
    then you need to create two resource, one with cc 1000 and other with cc 2000,
    the second question is, I have to maintain these 2 different cost at the time of confirmation, Is it correct that I mantain the cost of an HOUR in KP26 so when the confirmation happens I just have to say in COR6N that 15 hours were used so based on rate given in KP26 system will calculate and allocate that cost properly, Is this how it works?
    as per the formula in OP54, assigned in resource with respect to activity.
    at the time of actual booking, system will calculate the actual cost of the activity ( as per the formula maintained in resource)
    Also I want to ask if like the activity described before I can have 2 of these attached to the same work center and same phase? I know I can have up to six per Resource but how is the confirmation done, in one step at COR6N you give the 6 parameters to each of the activities or you have to go one by one and saving in this transaction??
    In resource for each activity ( parameter) you need to assign formula and activity type, while creating process, system will copy all the parameter and formula in process order, while booking  in cor6n system will copy all the parameter.

  • CRS-5017: The resource action "ora.RNSDG.dg check" encountered the followin

    Did anyone already had the same problem or any idea what the cause could be?

    hi goran
    I had the same problem. My workaround was to reconfig ohasd (-deconfig) and add the resources again (this behaviour with the slow startup was just with an upgraded repo). After that the start was more or less normal. I had opened an sr without any usefull fix, only the workaround with reconfig which I mentioned.
    But the other thing is, that a "crctl stop has" will "shutdown abort" the databases. For that I've no real solution yet.

  • Efficiently Updating Resource Cost Rate Tables

    Hi gang,
    Is it possible in version (server) 2010 to update resources' cost rates tables in bulk?  I.e., we would like edit the resource profile for a set of resources... e.g., edit table A, B, and C with a common rate (and effective date).  Is this possible
    without VBA?
    \Spiro Theopoulos PMP, MCITP. Montreal, QC (Canada)

    Hi François,
    Our company has developed a VBA app that does this and bit more.  It allows you to export and / or import resource data to and from MS Project and Excel, including all the cost rate tables and their effective dates.
    Here is a short video that demos what and how it does it: http://www.screencast.com/t/HGTb5FMF

  • Why resource cost in Oracle does not equal the total on the routing of Usage.

    why resource cost in Oracle does not equal the total on the routing of Usage.

    Hi Judy,
    I could not reproduce your issue. Is your Project Server patched with the latest SP and CU?
    Also can you reproduce this unexpected behavior with another project?
    Can you split your screen from the resource usage view, display the resource form and click right on the grey part selecting "schedule"? Then you'll have the scheduled start and finish dates for the resource's assignments. This is to be sure that
    you are not missing any parts of the assignments due to a wrong zoom in the timephased grid.
    Hope this helps,

  • Updating With Resource-Costs for Corps

    I have a P6v7 schedule created with the cost for each activity as a resource (rather than Expense, so that it can be used to create an SDEF for QCS input). The 'calculate costs' and 'auto compute' ticky-boxes are ticked. When I update the activity percentage (physical), both simply in-progress or complete, it clears the dollars out of the budgeted cost in the resource (setting it to $0).
    I understand that P6 is unequated (dollars and durations will not run off the same entered percentage) so I already know I'll need to enter each update twice. But I'd really like to have the budgeted total stick around so I know how much it is without flipping back and forth to a previous schedule. How do I keep the resource-loaded budget from clearing when I update?

    Hello Masa,
    Yes this is correct. One User works the other not but i checked it like 100 times they are configured exactly the same.
    As you can see the App is working fine for UserB:
    And for UserA the Live Tile on the Launchpad is also working fine:
    But as soon as I start the App i get the Error mentioned at the beginning of this Thread and the View is not displaying any Data:
    Im also not able to search manually for a Customer because the App is not issuing further request to the Backend after the Error occured.
    Here is the Screenshot for the Track Sales Order App for UserA:
    This is really giving me some headaches.

  • Using multiple resource cost rates in Project Server 2013

    Greetings,
    We use Project Server 2013 to manage resources that often perform multiple roles within projects and also have different rates between projects. The Standard Rate from the user's profile is somewhat helpful but, as we all know, it carries over to every
    project that the resource is part of.
    I have tried opening Project Professional 2013 and using the additional Cost tabs in the user's information to enter different rates in tabs, B, C, D and E (tab A is the default Standard Rate from Project Server).
    My experience has been that as soon as I close and check in the project file, this data disappears. Next time I open the file the default rate is available but tabs B-E are blank. This behavior does not occur if I open a stand-alone project
    file not connected to Project Server. 
    I realize that Project is not meant to be a financial management tool and has its limitations but I'm looking for suggestions and would appreciate any feedback.
    Thanks
    Ray

    Dale is right in that an Enterprise Resource can only have its rates (or any details) set by the administrator. Unfortunately you are limited to 5 rates (A-E).
    I have done a macro for a client that reads rates for a resource for a project from a database (or Excel) every time the project is opened. So you see the correct rates and calculated costs.
    These rates get over-written next time you open the project, hence the need for the macro to update rates every time the project is opened.
    Another option in the macro is to zero the rates so a copy can be emailed to clients etc without sensitive rates data.

  • Material-resource-cost center list

    Hi Srihari,
    There is no standard report available to link material, resource and cost center.
    Like Vishal said u have to use the tables and link them through T-Cose SQVI and assign it to a Z tcode.

  • How do I change Resource Cost Center only and retain historical cost center data?

    How would a Project Server Admin accommodate changes in the resource's cost center itself?
    For example, Ken (timesheet submitter) records Feb time in cost center C1, but then transfers to a new team, which is in cost center C2 on Mar 1st.
    When I change his cost center at the resource level, reporting indicates all of his previous C1 time as a resource under the C2 cost center, and all of his C1 time looks like it's incorrectly in C2.
    I am thinking about adding custom resource fields to track these changes, but it seems like a lot of extra work, if something already exists that I can use.
    Thanks,
    Marty

    Marty,
    AFAIK, there is no way to do this OOB as Resource Fields are not 'time-phased'.
    A 'possible' alternative, like you mentioned, could be be to use custom fields to track, the change (like Effective Date, Old Cost Center), and then somehow write a query to consider the old cost center between the dates. I have not tried this personally,
    just a thought.

  • Project Resource Cost

    We are not implementing Project Resource Management here.
    What are the possible ways to enter the Cost incurred on an Employee (Salary) against the Project.
    This cost has to be there on projects subledger as it will be considered to calculate the Project Revenue & Invoice using Cost/Cost Dist. Rule.

    You don't need project resource management for this.
    There are two ways to use the employee salary as project cost: -
    1. You can use the organization rate schedule and enter employee/resource payroll/salary rates.
    2. using labor costing extension, you will be able to pick up the payroll salary information from employee assignment element entry.

  • Resource / Cost Loading Schedule

    I am seeking some ideas about Resource Loading and Cost Loading schedules in P6.
    My Resources are the subcontractors on the project. Each Subcontractor is the Resource for series of activities. The Resource Type is "Labor" and we plug Labor Units for each activity to run the "Activity Usage Profile". The unit price is $1 to avoid the warnings in the "Project Integrity Report" but not to track cost.
    I need to load the schedule with "Labor" cost and "Material" cost. I assigned two more resources to every activity:
    1. "Labor Cost" with "Nonlabor" resource type.
    2. “Material Cost” with “Material” Resource type.
    The reason why the “Labor Cost” resource is nonlabor is because I don't want P6 to add labor units for both resources (Labor Units for subcontractor and Labor Units for Labor cost)
    Is there a better way to load your schedule with labor units, labor cost and material cost?
    Thanks,
    Fouad

    You are doing right but needs a bit correction.
    Total Cost = Labor + Non Labor + Material + Expenses
    Earned Value Calculations are based on Total Cost and not a specific type of cost.
    I suggest using Price / Unit for labor = 0 and not 1 that means labor resources will not take part in cost for Earned Value Management.
