Resource search based on Customer and Project role type

We are using cProjects 3.1 with WFM core and SAP ECC 5.0 We have been able to search for resources (created as Business partners) based on Org Unit, Qualifications and also Availability %.
But while searching in the General tab, if we enter the
Customer/Ordering Party field or Project Role type field, the search yields no results. However if both these fields are blank, the search gives correct results.
Thanks & regards,

Hi
There is BAdI: DPR_SEARCH which you can use.
You can implement it with custom logic
Talking about PA-PSA based search, Is available using PFAL transaction for BP creation
You need to Map your PA-PSA with Area-location of cProjects

Cost / Revenue for Project Role Types

Dear All,
I need your suggestion on cost / revenue rate for multiple project roles type of the project elements. I am defining various project roles such as account manager / project manager / Team leader / Team members etc. which will be assigned to project. There will be different cost / revenue hourly rate for each role type. I have defined hourly cost / revenue rate for organisation management. But i oberved that hourly rate is getting copied to all type of role in project & the same is update as planned cost.
Request you to suggest how to mainatin different hourly rate for various project roles in side project.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Ranjan

Hi,
Make sure you have done following settings
SPRO>Collaboration Projects >Connection to External Systems>Accounting Integration>Define Cost/Revenue Rates
here you define Cost revenue rates
Now i feel you have assigned these rates in define Task types in SPRO>Cproj>structure>define task types
in this case it ll take same cost revenue rates.
you remove these
and in SPRO >Collaboration Projects > Resource Management>Basic Settings for Project Roles> Role types
assign the rates.
clear the browser Cache, cookies.
Make sure you log off and then try to create new Project with the settings
It shd help.
P.s. Zhenbo plz correct me if im wrong...

Project role type in cprojects

HAi all,
Hoe to create a project role type in cprojects?.
I get the red light in cprojects screen while creating project role . Could any one help me to clear this.
Thanks,
Regards,
S.Jenibalet

Hi,
You can get this done in the IMG under the 'spro' transaction. In Collaboration projects, get to create the role type and specify the project types (Regular, Program etc.) where this role type would be applicable.
Hope this helps...

Create Individual Idocs Based on Parent and Child Segment type

Hi Experts,
I have a scenario IDOC to FILE , Split Single IDOC into Multiple IDOC's based on parent and child Segment Type
For example If 3 child segments are same and 1 segment is different under parent segment then 3 same child segments are clubbed and create single idoc under parent segments and 1 different child should create in individual idoc under parent segment.
Note : Same logic should work for N number of Parent Segments and Child Segments.
Outbound:
ZIdocName
Control Record
Data Record
Parent Segment A
   Child Segment 1
   Child Segment 1
   Child Segment 1
   Child Segment 2
Parent segment B
   Child Segment 3
Status Record
I should get output like below
Inbound:
ZIdocName
Control Record
Data Record
Parent segment A
Child Segment 1
Child Segment 1
Child Segment 1
Status Record
ZIdocName
Control Record
Data Record
Parent segment A
Child Segment 2
Status Record
ZIdocName
Control Record
Data Record
Parent Segment B
Child Segment 3
Status Record
Please suggest me step by step process to achieve this task.
Thanks.
Ram

Hello,
Segment won't hold any value, so filter criteria should be there on some field wich exist in Parent node and chile node?
Paste ur XML?
Try this(Assuming u have some fields in parent/child segment on which u want to define filter criteria):
Parent Field--UseOneAsMany----RC----
                                  ------------------Concat ----splitbyvalue(value change)--collapse context --- ZIdoc
Child field-- RC----------
Child field--RC--splitbyvalue(valuechange)--CC -Splitbyvalue(each value) -- ParentSegment
Child field--RC--splitbyvalue(valuechange)--- ChildSegment
RC -> Remove Context
CC - Collapse Context
Note - i haven't tested ur mapping, so make sure to adjust context in mapping
Thanks

Validate CardCode for Customer and Vendor BP Type

Hi Experts,
I would like to insert some code into the SP so that there is no mismatch between the first letter of the card code and the BP Type. Such that if they try to add the CardCode of c1001 to a vendor type, that a message appears stating that there is a mismatch.
thx,
Richard

Try this:
if @object_type = '2' and @transaction_type='A'
BEGIN
if exists
(Select p.CardCode from ocrd p
    where p.CardCode=@list_of_cols_val_tab_del
      and substring(p.CardCode,1,1) !=
      case when p.CardType='S' then 'S'
           else 'C' end )
begin
set @error =1
set @error_message = 'Partner code should begin with C or S !'
end

Credit Limit based on customer and material?

Hello Gurus,
I've 2 diff types of goods..
1) fast moving/ selling goods
2) slow moving goods.
For a particular customer, I've assigned certain credit limit of say 10,000 EUR via FD32.
My question is, for the slow moving goods or one particular material/certain goods, I want to have higher limit--is it possible to configure to assign credit limit per customer/ material?
Rgds,
Raghu.

Hi,
As preceding answer, it's not possible in standard SAP.
The credit check is on the totallity of sales order, not by item.
If you are in the same sales order different materials, what is the reaction of system ?
But, you have different options to check this :
- Exclude material in credit check (according to material group for example) by using requirement in OVA8.
- Create a new condition type to check the credit limit in Ztable for customer/material. When you create sales order, a message is displaying according to your configuration (or blocking status for item).
You can compare Ztable (credit limit for customer/material) and another table for open orders.
Just an idea.

Lionel

Equipment search based on Class and Characteristic data

Hello Experts,
We are looking for some inputs on how to get index created on Class and Characterstics for Equipments.
We are using Embedded Search , TREX Version 7.10.44.00, Changelist 323327 (710_REL), InstallationType ESH along with ECC 6.0/Ehp4.
We can't see any standard template available in our cockpit(ESH_COCKPIT) for Class and Characteristic but we can see a template on Equipment(EQUI).
We have the following software components available : EA-HRGXX, ESH_COMMON_OBJECTS and SAP_APPL however class and characteristic are missing.
We tried to import it but unavailable in the import queue. Hence it seems we need to create it manually.
Question:
Is it available in some patch or something from where we can import it? We assume these should be definitely available somewhere since these are standards templates.
From where we can get the technical details if we want to create these manually?
How to configure the index to get the relevant field data from ECC-->TREX for these new indexes(Class/Characteristic) created?
What extra coding required to do this? Where we can find the details on how to program and run this?
Any other related info around this will be really helpful.
Many Thanks
Sanjay

hi,
the standard templates are only delivered with EHP5 and NW 7.2 as part of the standard delivery.

User-Exit for Checking Customer and Sale order type in Sales Order Creation

Hi Experts,
While creating the Sales Order once i enter sold-to-party and enter line item, i have to check the customer against the sales order type.
Please suggest me if any user-exit or enhancement or BADI available for it.
Thanks & Regards,
-VM

Hi
Follow the below steps to find out what all BADI's are called when you press any button in any transaction.
1) Goto se24 (Display class cl_exithandler)
2) Double click on the method GET_INSTANCE.
3) Put a break point at Line no.25 (CASE sy-subrc).
Now
4) Execute SAP standard transaction
5) Press the required button for which you need to write an exit logic, the execution will stop at the break point.
6) Check the values of variable 'exit_name', it will give you the BADI name called at that time.
7) This way you will find all the BADIs called on click of any button in any transaction.

Problem while assigning multiple staffing to project role.

Dear All,
I am facing problem while assigning multiple staffing to project role.
In the project role, we are doing staffing ( assigning BP). While assigning the BP's getting below errors.
Resource assignments overlap
Message no. DPR_BUPA_LINK004
Diagnosis
The validity period '10.02.2008'-'01.03.2008' for the assignment of project role Product Manager and ' Rakesh Pradhan' overlaps with the validity period of the assignment ''.
However, the project role type does not allow several staffings to be edited at the same time in the project role.
System Response
The system does not allow this constellation of data when saving.
Procedure
Check and correct the start and finish dates of the staffings affected.
Request you to advise in fiixng the issue.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Regards,
Ranjan

Hi Biplab,
For multiple staffings in the same time frame, check the option of 'Edit in Parallel' in the Role Type settings in SPRO.
Let me know if that helps.

Levelling: Work Distribution based on Resource Capacity and Project Priorities.

Hi team,
I have inherited about 25 projects and 15 resources spread across these projects. We use project server 2010 to manage projects....we launch any lest a new project each month. We run Weekely modelling.Having a nightmare managing shared resources. Hoping
that I can get some of my questions answered here and bring back some semblance of sanity.....so here goes my first question.....
lets assume I have two resources;
resource1 whose allocation for project activities is 75%. His capacity in resource center view in pwa is 6 hours and resource 2 who has 8 hours capacity per day.
let us assume there is a 28 hour, fixed work task on which both the resources are assigned.
let us assume that this task can start on jan1st -
scenario1: both the resources are working on only 1 project.
is the project server smart enough to assign 12 hours to resource1 and 16 hours to resource2, so that both of them finish at same time?
scenario2: a higher priority project gets introduced in the portfolio because of which resource1 will not be available till 2nd Jan to Start work.
is the tool smart enough to assign more work to resource2 to ensure that both of them finish the task on project1 same time?
Thanks in advance...
Lakshmi

If you assign a single person to a Fixed Work task they will work on it for as long as it takes at their default Maximum Units.
If you add a second person the task will take less time and the work will be apportioned based upon both resources maximum units.
If you specify the work on the task before assigning the first resource (add the work column to a tabular view and enter a value in the work cell for a task) Microsoft Project will behave as
you are looking for in your question.
For example I create a new Fixed Work task and it shows with 1d? duration - I enter 28 hours work in the work cell - the task still shows 1d? duration. I assign a person to the task who works to the same base calendar as the project but who has maximum units
of 75% defined and can therefore work 6 ours per day.
I assign them to the task and the duration changes to 4.67 days - this is how long it will take someone who works 6 hours per day to complete 28 hours work. Technically speaking the duration is 4.6666 recurring days but project only shows 2 decimal places.
If I know assign an additional resource to the same task and that person works 8 hours per day as their maximum units are 100% the duration will reduce to 2 days and the work will be apportioned 12/16 to the two resources.
So the tool is smart enough to behave in the way you are expecting in Scenario 1.
It will not however make decisions for you to address Scenario 2 unless you engage in
"Multi-Project Resource Levelling" if you do this and your Projects do have different priority values then Resource Levelling will deploy resource to the more important project first in cases where a resource has conflicting assignments across
projects in the same window of time.

Resource Staffing to a Project Role - Few queries :)

Hi,
There is a Newly created project role. Now the role needs to be assigned with the project task and also a resource needs to be staffed to the Project role.
The role creation, task assignment are going good as per the defined processes. But I am finding difficulty to staff the resources to the role. On searching the resources (please note I have not mentioned any criteria in qualification) I am getting a list of resources but on staffing them neither of them is having the availability.
My questions are..
1) Are there any validity dates (for staffing) for the resources which are defined as the Busienss Partner in the BP T Code.
2) On creataing a new Buseinss Partner in the BP and searching the same while staffing it does not show it. (Guess it can have some batch-job for updates as per requireement). Please suggest my guess is right or not.
3) Do we have any functionality in cProjects wherein based on role requirement (with its availability dates) we can explore the number of resources which can be staffed with their availability dates. (I guess it is similar to the qualification criteria match functionality, but please note I have not used the qualification in my test case here).
Please suggest. Full points for the correct and useful answer.
Regards,
Nishit

Hi Nishit,
1. I dont think there is any validity period explicity defined for BPs. The Business Partners can be staffed if they are not 'blocked'.
2. Ensure that you create BPs with Employee role.There is no batch job update required if you have created BPs in the same system.
3. Yes. This is possible. Check out the Resource Search Functionality in cProjects. Availability can be set as a desired search criteria there. You can maintain the BP availability in the t-code RPM_EMPDATA.

Vivek

Staffing of Project Roles with Resources

Hi PPM Gurus,
We have some gaps when designing workflow email to Resource Line manager in cProject (Project Management) in PPM. We working on scenario where,-
1.       1. Project Manager (PM) knows only roles required for project, but not resources
2.       2. Important Question: How PM will inform by SAP workflow to Resource Manager (RM) or Line Manager (LM) to update resource in cProject.
3.       3. Then we can use standard SAP workflow process as mentioned in 1013736 – cProject soft booking and hard booking approval workflow which is,
1) The process of approval of a Soft Booking of a Resource to a Project Role and the subsequent conversion of the booking from 'Soft Booked' to 'Hard Booked' is controlled by means of a workflow.
2) This workflow will be triggered when a Resource is assigned to a Project Role or an old booking is changed and the booking type of a resource is marked as 'Soft Booked' by a Resource Manager. A Resource can be soft booked by checking the 'Res.' checkbox within the staffing table against the resource which is being booked to a role.
3) The Line Manager of the resource which was soft booked will receive a mail containing a link to his SAP Business Workplace from where he/she can approve/reject the booking.
4) In the SAP Business Workplace of the Line Manager a work item would be present which will have the booking details, 'Approve Booking' and 'Reject Booking' buttons which shall be used to make the respective decisions.
5) If the booking is approved then the workflow will try to automatically convert this booking from 'Soft Booked' to 'Hard Booked' in the background. If it succeeds then the process will move forward; if not (say, because of reasons like Project/role being locked) then the Line Manager will get another mail informing him/her about the failure and would have to re-execute the booking through a new work item. Once the booking type is successfully converted from 'Soft Booked' to 'Hard Booked' then the Resource Manager(s), Project Manager(s) and the Resource himself/herself will receive a mail notifying the confirmation of the booking.
6) If the booking is rejected then the booking type will remain unchanged ('Soft Booked') and the Resource Manager(s), Project Manager(s) will receive a mail notifying the rejection of the booking.

Hi Diana,
Your questions can be answered through staffing type 'Resource manager via responsible organisation' known as extended staffing process in PPM-Project management.
There are many staffing types
1) Project lead
2) Resource manager via authorisation
3) Resource manager via responsible organisation (Extended staffing process)
4) Multi-Resource Scheduling (MRS) (If MRS is integrated).
Except the first one, all other staffing type involves resource managers to staff the project roles and these staffing types are cross-project view for resource managers. The first one is project-centric and it is always staffed by the project lead/Project manager.
Resource manager via authorisation: Here the staffing is carried out based on the authorisation the resource manager has for specific resource pools with staffing/candidate manager authorisation to a single/multiple projects.
Resource manager via responsible organisation: In this process, the responsible staffing/candidate manager is identified through the HR organisation unit assigned by the project manager to a project role. This extended staffing process has 3 steps–
1)     Staffing in preparation (Where the project manager select the suitable department/functions(org. unit) for staffing the resource manager)
2)     Staffing in process ( The responsible staffing manager of the org. unit staff resources from his org. unit)
3)     Staffing closed (The project manager closes the staffing process).
MRS staffing is also similar to the above with its own extra features.
Considering this, I feel that ‘Extended staffing process’ is more suitable for your scenario.

Ravi

How to create a Platinum,Gold and Silver Customer and how to set different price for a single material based on customer?

Hi All,
How to create a Platinum,Gold and Silver Customer and how to set different price for a single material based on customer?
Assume Material is Pen.
While creating Sales Order in VA01 how to bring different price for the same material for Platinum,Gold and Silver Customers.
Kindly help me out.
Thanks,
Renjith Jose

A good place to start is http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javatips/jw-javatip34.html
Also, do a search in this forum on HttpURLConnection. That class allows you to use POST method to send form data to a web server.
"Hidden" variables are only hidden in HTML. The HTTP that gets POSTed to the web server doesn't distinguish between hidden and not hidden. That is, the content you would write to the HttpURLConnection.getOutputStream() would be something like:
hidden=1&submit=ok(Of course, the variable names would depend on what the web server was expecting from the form.)
Also, be sure to set the Content-Type request parameter to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

BP Search - based on Role

Hi all,
I want to achieve the functionality of searching Business Partner based on BP Role.
Already have spent time with system but still not be to get any breakthru
To sum it up again, I need to see 'BP Role' in the BP search drop down.( Just like 'Number', 'Search term', 'external Number', 'name'...etc.)
Due points will be credited.
Best rgds,
Ak-

Hi,
First you have to create a search help for BP by BP role (maybe you can use BUPAR standard search help).
Then you have to maintain a function module, program and screen for that search help in loca_cust transaction (in Search Ids) - this is the place where the search helps in locator are defined.
Then you go to SE11, select search help BUPA_ALL, BUPA_PERSON and BUPA_ORGANIZATION and add you new search ID.
Hope it helps.
Kind regards,
Susana Messias
