SAP PI 7.3 - Information for Customers

Hi Guys!!!
I am researching documentation about SAP PI 7.3 FOR CUSTOMERS.
I need documentation but NOT a Technical Documentation, some a Brief Overview of it.
It should be About SAO Services and comunication between Non-SAPs Systems.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
please use the search function on SDN first
thank you,

  • Aging information for customers

    Hi,
    My client has the website on which customers can see their sales orders, invoices and payments made to these invoices, alongwith aging information. I need to map all these fields, can the aging information be picked up directly from some table or structure. What specs should be given to ABAP guys who are mapping the fileds.
    thanks
    Rose

    Hi
    Aging means the information about the due amounts. This can be possible through the payment terms available in the Customer open line item.
    Tables useful in this regard:
    FI specific tables:
    BSID                            Customer Open item details
    BSAD                           Customer Cleard item details
    SD specific tables:
    VBAK                           Sales Document: Header Data
    VBAP                           Sales Document: Item Data
    VBRK                           Billing: Header Data
    VBRP                           Billing: Item Data
    ZFBDT - Base line date : is base dt used for calculating the due date.
    Due details is always based on the 3 fields ( ZBD1T ZBD2T ZBD3T) ZBD3T - is the main field which gives the details of the net due days.

  • SAP DSD - geocoding for customers - field format does not fit to examples

    Hello to all,
    We have a customer requirement behind this. We intend to use the DSD-Addon for several issues. One of these issues is to store geocoding information for our customer data within SAP. The SAP-Release is 4.7 with the DSD-Addon active. I checked all threads within the network and also checked SAP-Help and OSS-messages. Now our issue:
    When I look at the fields for storing the geocode (Longitude and Latitude) they do not fit to the testdata I got from our customers. The data look like this:
    customer:       x-Coord           y-Coord_
    10001             744264,3384   6657823,32
    10002             813368,6494   6699051,344
    10003             790475,8379   6702787,298
    10004             862729,1893   6690792,612
    The fields in the DSD-Customerdata have the format "123.123456789012". So I wonder how my data could fit into these fields. Is there anybody who has experience with this? I did not find any information or examples in the SAP-Help for this. What is wrong the format of the fields or the format of the x/y-Coordinates?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Do SAP Plan to Productise the PIC Internal Process for Customers & ISV's?

    Recently SAP has released information on the internal process they have adopted for Enterprise SOA based Service definition and development.
    It has the name PIC (Process Integration Content) and seems to be "governed" by an internla SAP "Council".
    Here is a description gleaned from a recent SAP presentation at the SAUG Summit:
    PIC (Process Integration Content Council)
    What is it?
    PIC is the process by which SAP defines and aligns enterprise services
    Why do we need the PIC process?
    Reuse of services
              o Service cut - done in PIC0
    Reuse of data types
              o GDT-PIC
    Unified and readable naming of objects, services, and data types
    Unified design with defined modeling rules
              o Outside-in approach
    Harmonization of business objects and service interfaces
    Unified behavior of services
    Overall documentation
    Intellectual property rights (IPR)
    The PIC process involves using a BPM Modelling tool (IDS-Scheer's ARIS). The description from SAP is described as:
    ARIS supports the entire enterprise service definition process
    PIC 0: service definition and cut
    PIC 1: raw design of interfaces based on business object model
    GDT-PIC: harmonized definition of relevant data types
    PIC 3: final interface definition including element structure with all details
    It is understood that definition of all "Enhancement Package" content for ERP6.0 for example now follows this process.
    This raises many important questions for SAP Customers going forward. Such as:
       1. To what SAP Software and Versions does this process apply?
       2. Does SAP intend to "Productise" the PIC process so that Customers can plug into and adopt it in a seemless way?
       3. If so, when?
       4. If so, what are the implications for customers for custom development within their own SAP systems?
       5. If so, what are the education, training, skill set and licensing implications of integrated use of the ARIS product suite?
    For example, is SAP planning to fully OEM the ARIS solution for SAP, in a similar way that Oracle has with its "Oracle BPA Suite"?
    It would be good to get EAC access to the right SAP knowledge so these questions can be answered.  Perhaps this is a good topic for future EAC gatherings?
    I would be interested in your thoughts.
    Cheers, Phil Gleadhill.
    BHP Billiton.

    Phil - I will share a few comments / responses to your questions. Will need to check with some of my colleagues on other parts.
    First, as you mentioned, PIC is primarily an internal governance mechanism SAP uses to provide strong governance for ESR content. Among other things it provides consistency and alignment across service definitions and other models. PIC itself is a methodology separate from an implementation instance in a tool.
    In talking with product management we announced at TechEd we would share not only service defintions, but also process component models, integrations and interfaces along with the services. Essentially this shows 'results' of PIC.
    One way or another, all customers adopting enterprise SOA need a way to govern the design of services (and more) to be successful. Some customers have realized that adapting the PIC process to their own organization to extend SAP content with their own custom or partner services and related models would be an ideal way to do this versus starting from scratch. While we've been working with individual customers to see how this could work there is no general release of the PIC process per se I am aware of. My understanding is a workshop on PIC is under development for a release "soon" to immerse customers in the process.
    Others will have to address the "coupling" between ARIS as a tool supporting the PIC process / methodology and what this means tdy / tmrw.

  • Solman SMIN Incident: Information for SAP

    Hi
    We are using SMIN (actually ZMIN in customer namespace) in Solution Manager 7.1
    I have created a test incident for SAP just to ensure it's working, which it is.
    However, I have logged into the SAP Support Portal to just check the OSS Incident and how it compares to the information I put in Solman.
    Short Text and Description both come across ok.
    However, the "Information for SAP" field in Solution Manager (which I thought was the field that WOULD come across) does NOT show in SAP Support Portal.
    So just confirming, should "Information for SAP" come across into the OSS incident?? If so, why isn't it appearing for me?
    Also, is there any way to add "Steps for Reconstruction" in Solman? This area is also blank in SAP Support Portal.
    Thanks very much!!!!!!!
    Shaun

    Thanks Prakhar! That was most helpful.
    I have executed RNOTIFUPDATE01 and I have noticed that my incident in Solman (ZMIN) is not updating. It still has status of "Sent to SAP" and the SAP incident is still showing as "In Processing with SAP".
    However when I logon to SAP Support Portal, on the SAP side the status is "Customer Action".
    I had  a look at the job log for RNOTIFUPDATE01 and it said:
    "At least one error occurred when communicating with SAP". So then I had a look at the spool and there is many, many lines saying:
    "For object DNO_NOTIF, number range interval 03 does not exist DNO_NOTIF".
    I then went into DNO_NOTIF transaction and there is no number ranges at all.
    Here is a screenshot of Maintain Number Range Intervals in DNO_NOTIF:
    Here is a screenshot of Number Range Groups in DNO_NOTIF:
    Are the above Groups correct? Shouldn't ZMIN appear in there somewhere?
    Also, why can I not add a new number range in Maintain mode?
    Is this the reason why RNOTIFUPDATE01 is not working? How do I resolve this so my ZMIN can update?
    Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    SD Flow
    You create a sales document to enter information about different sales transactions. R/3 provides a number
    of predefined sales document types. However , these can be customized to suit your company's needs when
    R/3 is installed.
    Some examples of sales documents include:
    • sales queries
    • sales orders
    • outline agreements
    • complaints
    You use sales queries to enter information about potential sales into R/3.Types of sales query documents
    include:
    • inquiries
    • quotations
    • free-of-charge deliveries
    An inquiry is used to record any general queries a customer may have about goods or services they
    are thinking of buying from your company. An inquiry is one of the first possible documents you can
    create in the customer order management cycle. An example of the type of information contained in an
    inquiry is whether your company stocks a certain product line. Along with entering general customer
    queries, you can use inquiries to record the goods or services that a customer is interested in. And you
    can enter descriptions of goods or services that your company should research in order to answer customer
    queries. You can carry out automatic pricing for any goods or services you enter in an inquiry. This will
    enter the price of goods or services into the inquiry for you. You can also check whether any goods you
    entered in the inquiry are available in your company's warehouse. The order probability function enables
    you to determine the likelihood that a customer will buy from you. To increase the probability of a sale,
    you can offer the customer alternative goods and services.
    Quotations are sales query documents that you create when a customer requests specific information
    about a product. For example, you can use a quotation if a customer makes a query regarding how much
    goods or services cost or you can use a query if a customer asks when goods will be available for shipping.
    You can create quotations from scratch or you can create them by copying inquiries. If a customer is
    interested in the products or services after they have made an inquiry, you can provide a quotation based
    on the original inquiry. R/3 allows you to copy the information directly from an inquiry to a quotation.
    Let's say an inquiry was created when a customer inquired whether your company, could manufacture
    twenty motorcycles. Assume a quotation was created by copying this inquiry when the customer called
    back to inquire how much twenty motorcycles would cost. You can use quotations to enter information and
    descriptions for goods and services that are to be researched. You can also use them to carry out automatic
    pricing and to check goods availability. You can use quotations to calculate the probability that a customer
    will buy the goods or services entered on a quotation. This function is called order probability.You can
    also use quotations to enter details about alternative goods or services. These are goods or services that a
    customer did not inquire about but that you think they will consider purchasing. Once you have created a
    quotation for a query in R/3, you send the quotation to the customer who made the query. The quotation
    represents a binding offer made to the customer that includes quantity and cost details.
    You create a free of charge delivery when you send free samples of any goods that your company
    produces to customers. These contain information about the goods that are delivered but they don't
    include the corresponding pricing information for them.
    Let's look at the sales orders that exist in R/3.You create a sales order when a customer has ordered
    goods or services from your company. They are a part of the customer order management cycle.
    You can carry out automatic pricing in sales orders to enter the price of goods or services.
    R/3 will also run a credit check on the customer to see if they will be exceeding their credit limit.
    You can also check whether ordered goods will be available in your company's warehouse for delivery.
    Examples of types of sales order include
    • standard orders
    • consignment orders
    • cash orders
    • rush orders
    You create standard orders for goods and services that will be delivered or rendered according to
    the standard R/3 sales cycle. This means that goods are ordered, picked from the warehouse, and
    then shipped before customers are billed for them. Likewise, services are rendered before customers
    are billed for them.
    Your company may store its goods in its customers' warehouses. You create a
    consignment order when a customer is ready to retrieve stock from the warehouse.
    SAP can propose the most suitable stock to retrieve, including third-party stock.
    A consigment order is like a standard sales order for goods but it doesn't have any delivery
    information.
    You create cash orders and rush orders for the sale of goods only.
    You create a cash order when a customer picks up and pays for a delivery as soon
    as it is ordered. And you create a rush order when the customer picks up the goods on the
    same day as the order is placed. In this case, the invoice is created later.
    You can arrange to deliver goods or render services in installments. To do this, you create an
    outline agreement. Examples of some types of outline agreement include :
    • quantity and value contracts
    • master contracts
    • scheduling agreements
    • service contracts
    You create a quantity contract if a customer has agreed to order a certain quantity
    of goods from your company during a specified period.
    And you create a value contract if a customer has agreed to order goods of a certain
    cumulative value from your company during a specified period.
    Quantity and value contracts do not include delivery dates, so releases are made
    using a sales order.
    You can unite multiple contracts in a single master contract.
    Let's say you create a quantity contract because a customer has agreed to order
    500 engines in the first six months of the current year. If the customer orders 100 of these
    engines in January, you create a sales order called a release order.You refer to a quantity
    contract in a release order. So you refer to the quantity contract created for the 500 engines in
    each release order created for these engines. R/3 will then update the quantity contract
    automatically so it contains the correct number of remaining engines to be ordered.
    Scheduling agreements specify the installments in which goods will be delivered
    to a customer. They include the quantity of a product that will be delivered in each
    installment. And they include the delivery date of each installment. You process a delivery
    for each installment contained in the scheduling agreement in the same way that you process
    a delivery for a regular sales order.No sales documents, such as release orders, are created before
    the products included on a scheduling agreement are processed for delivery.
    You create a service contract if a customer requests a service over a particular
    period of time.For example, you could create a service contract if a customer ordered five
    one-hour maintenance checks from your company's motorcycle repair department.
    You create complaint sales documents if there has been a fault with any goods that
    have been delivered, or with any services rendered, by your company.
    For example, you create complaint sales documents if customers have been billed
    incorrectly for an item or service, or if goods are faulty.
    Different types of complaint sales document include
    • returns
    • credit memo requests
    • debit memo requests
    You create a returns document if a customer returns goods they have purchased from
    you because they are not satisfied with them. You can create returns from scratch or you can
    create them by copying the sales order that was originally created for the returned delivery.
    A returns document records that you expect stock to be returned to your warehouse.
    You can create one or more credit memo requests if a customer has been overcharged
    for a quantity of goods or services. You can also create a credit memo request if goods were
    damaged during transit and you want to credit the customer for the goods damaged.
    When you create a credit memo request, your Accounting department reviews it to
    confirm that it can be justified. If the credit memo request is approved, the Accounting department
    creates a credit memo based on the request. You can create credit memo requests by copying other
    sales documents such as the sales order where the overcharge occurred.
    You create debit memo requests when customers have been undercharged for products
    or services.Your company’s Accounting department can then create an invoice to bill the
    undercharged customer.

    MM Process flow:
    Process Flow
    The typical procurement cycle for a service or material consists of the following phases:
    1. Determination of Requirements
    Materials requirements are identified either in the user departments or via materials planning and control. (This can cover both MRP proper and the demand-based approach to inventory control. The regular checking of stock levels of materials defined by master records, use of the order-point method, and forecasting on the basis of past usage are important aspects of the latter.) You can enter purchase requisitions yourself, or they can be generated automatically by the materials planning and control system.
    2. Source Determination
    The Purchasing component helps you identify potential sources of supply based on past orders and existing longer-term purchase agreements. This speeds the process of creating requests for quotation (RFQs), which can be sent to vendors electronically via SAP EDI, if desired.
    3. Vendor Selection and Comparison of Quotations
    The system is capable of simulating pricing scenarios, allowing you to compare a number of different quotations. Rejection letters can be sent automatically.
    4. Purchase Order Processing
    The Purchasing system adopts information from the requisition and the quotation to help you create a purchase order. As with purchase requisitions, you can generate Pos yourself or have the system generate them automatically. Vendor scheduling agreements and contracts (in the SAP System, types of longer-term purchase agreement) are also supported.
    5. Purchase Order Follow-Up
    The system checks the reminder periods you have specified and - if necessary - automatically prints reminders or expediters at the predefined intervals. It also provides you with an up-to-date status of all purchase requisitions, quotations, and purchase orders.
    6. Goods Receiving and Inventory Management
    Goods Receiving personnel can confirm the receipt of goods simply by entering the Po number. By specifying permissible tolerances, buyers can limit over- and under deliveries of ordered goods.
    7. Invoice Verification
    The system supports the checking and matching of invoices. The accounts payable clerk is notified of quantity and price variances because the system has access to PO and goods receipt data. This speeds the process of auditing and clearing invoices for payment.
    Pur info record is nothing but a master data like thing which will be maintained for different materials to determine the prices etc.It Specifies the number that uniquely identifies a record.
    For Example: an info record is based on Plant Vendor and Material
    Based on these three the Material Prices will be calculated
    for different combinations different values are taken into consideration.
    During pricing it brings these values automatically based on this info record.
    Use ME11 Tcode to create this record.

  • Electronic invoice for customers

    Hello experts
    I look for the function which is sent Electronic invoice for customers.
    Right now we are using 4.6C and our customer use SAP also.
    Our industory is consumer product and chemical product.
    Our requirements are follows.
    - Electronic invoices should be digitally signed from our side
    - The electronic invoice has to be converted from SAP format to a standard format accepted by the customer (common standard formats are PDF, XML, etc..)
    - The files have to be automatically distributed from SAP to customer platform (SAP Server to local server to customer IT system/platform),
    - File distribution tool should be able to be easily managed for several customers (FTP file transfer customer by customer could be become too complicated depending on the number of customers).
    Are there any solution or similar case with us?

  • Transfer Forecast data based on Customer information for product and plant

    Hi,
    This is the scenario.
    Our characterstics are Product,Plant and Customers
    and for 1 plant and product there may be 5 customers.
    My characterstics will be
    P1 L1 C1
    P1 L1 C2
    P1 L1 C3
    P1 L1 C3
    P1 L1 C4
    P1 L1 C5
    (P1-Product; L1 for Plant and C1,C2...are customers)
    Now forecast data will be different for different customers.
    I transfer demand from APO to ECC for PRoduct ,Plant and different customers.
    Then in ECC how to check for different customers.
    If you go to MD63 you can see for plant and product but not for customers.
    This is required as we are running MRP for that product for component planning.
    Thanks in Advance
    Raghavendra Pai

    Hi Ragvendra,
    In ECC we can transfer at material and plant level only and not information of customer. As you need for MRP run may be you can explore possibility of using some badi and get customer no in requirement plan number or some other feilds.
    Other option is planning with descriptive chartceristic in APO only. It is not possible to transfer demand with descriptive charcteristics to ECC.
    Here you can forcast demand on customer level. Transfer it as PIR with descriptive charcteristics to PPDS where you can plan for this demand.
    For information see link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/c1/147a375f0dbc7fe10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm.
    If your requirement is to transfer customer information to ECC from DP in standarad it is not possible as far as I know.

  • The migrated Crystal Report throws "The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect" error

    [ENVIRONMENT]
    Product version - BI4.1 SP03
    OS - Windows 2008 R2
    CMS Database - Oracle 11g
    Java Application Server - Tomcat7
    [ISSUE]
    Using the Upgrade Management Tool to completely migrate a BOXI3.1 SP3+FP3.6 to BI4.1 SP03.  The reporting database from both BOXI3.1 and BI4.1 are the same and so is the database logon credential.
    When viewing and refresh a migrated Crystal Report, it throws "The viewer could not process an event. The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect. [] ---- Error code:0 [CRWEB00000119]" error in both BI Launchpad and "The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect" in scheduled job.
    [STEPS TAKEN]
    - Update the Database Configuration with the SAME Oracle database password in CMC and "The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect" issue goes away.
    I search the SAP SMP and SCN forum and found no reference on this UMT and Crystal Report database logon problem.  Hope any of you have seen this problem and share if there is an ADAPT for it.
    Thank you in advance,

    Hi,
    The BI4.1 SP03 server and client and Crystal Report 2013 SP03 developer and Crystal Report for Enterprise 4.1 SP03 are all installed onto this Windows 2008 R2 server.
    I am able to open the migrated report from CMS repository in Crystal Report 2013 SP03 developer and am able to refresh it with database logon password provided.  After save it back to the Enterprise, the database logon password field for this report in CMC becomes empty so that I have to enter the database password and choose "Use same database logon as when report is run" when viewing and scheduling report.
    What is interesting to me is that the UMT seems to migrate the report along the database logon password because I can see the encrypted password in the report database logon property in CMC.  The workaround is to reenter the database logon password in the report database logon property in CMC.
    With this said, there are hundreds of the Crystal reports and the workaround would consume lots of manual work by update each report's database logon password in CMC.
    For other customers who have more crystal reports, I wonder if there is an automated way to update the crystal report's database logon password on BI4.1 or if this is an isolated incident on my new BI4.1 SP03 environment.
    I run UMT in command line to perform livetolive migration, and my steps are listed below
    cd "E:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\java\apps\upgradeManagementTool\jars\"
    "E:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64\sapjvm\bin\javaw.exe" -Xmx56g -Djava.library.path="..\..\..\..\win64_x64" -jar upgrademanagementtool.jar -internal_use_only_noversioncheck -responsefile LIVETOLIVEResponseFile.txt

  • Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite: New Choices for Customers

    Adobe has announced the new Cloud-based model for software distribution, along with new terms for boxed product upgrade eligibility. Beginning with the CS6 releases, when they happen, upgrade pricing on boxed products will only be availble one generation back. There is a limited window to upgrade now to the current versions at a discount.
    See http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2011/11/adobe-creative-cloud-and-adobe-creative-suite -new-choices-for-customers.html

    Eugene:
      Based on the current information we have (from the blog post), which may not be correct and which you should not rely upon:
    There is some confusion about the word "discount." As used in the blog post, in general there are no "discounts" for upgrades, there is the upgrade price and there is full price. But, also in the blog post, there is a special "discount upgrade" if you choose to upgrade to CS5.5 today (prior to Dec. 31, 2011), which is 20% off the regular upgrade. However, Peter used the word "discount" to distinguish between upgrade pricing and full price. It's probably a good idea to avoid using that word there because of the potential for confusion.
    I have CS5 InDesign in work. So I will be able to upgrade that to CS6 when it comes out at the discount price?
    You will be able to upgrade to CS6 at upgrade pricing. Not the 20% discount, but it is "discounted" from the full price of CS6.
    I'm still using CS2 Illustrator and Photoshop, for the little work I do in those programs, they're fine. But if I want to upgrade them to CS6 I have to pay the full amount of an upgrade, with no discount... or will I have to pay for CS6 in full for both of these programs?
    You will have to pay the full price (not the "full amount of an upgrade," whatever that means).
    If you elect to upgrade to CS5.5 prior to Dec. 31 of this year, however, then then you can pay the discounted upgrade price to upgrade to CS5.5 (well, CS5 since Photoshop CS5.5 doesn't exist), and then you can pay the CS6 upgrade price in March/April. So you can pay for no upgrades (full price) or two upgrades (one of which is 20% off).
    At the moment I can upgrade CS2, photoshop and Illustrator for €240 each, to CS5. So wouldn't I just be able to do that now and then buy the CS6 upgrade at a much later date perhaps just before CS7 comes out?
    Yes, you can do that.
    If CS6 has the tools to basically go "File>Export>Epub" and I get a fully working epub file without having to trash about in code afterwards or make complex tagging in InDesign, then I'll be buying it.
    It looks like EPUB is evolving pretty fast, so even if ID CS6 fully supports what you want out of EPUB on Day 1, I bet you'll need to be prepared to postprocess it on Day 2. Or at least long before Day 200.

    We have some customers who fall under x category and y category and z category, no we want a report which shows their order values and invoiced values for a period of time. in mcta we are not able to add customer classification as selection field. in report we want customer classification to be shown so that we can change their categories according to their invoiced values.
    if there is an option in standard report or if i have to write a query what tables are best to get information for a particular customer. please advise gurus and thanks in advance.

  • 1099 report for Customers

    Hi,
    We have a requriement to report 1099 on Rebate Customers, planning to use standard SAP report S_P00_07000134 (RFIDYYWT)
    Have already modified the existing process type US_1099 with output group US1 to include both Vendor and Customer payments. But, the reprot is not pulling the Customer payments yet.
    Also tried to copy the old process type and created the new one just for the customers alone. This time report is providing the output for customers but "Country specific Slection" is missing in Mandatory selection.
    Can anybody suggest what am I missing in the configuration or are there any OSS note for this ??
    Thansk in advance
