SAP WM - Capacity Usage

HI Gurus
In Material Master - WM1 view, there is a field capacity usage. Is there a formula to calculate the capacity usage or its a free field where you can enter any number?
Please advice
Thanks
Sanjay

The field capacity usage is free field and can be used to enter the capacity as an index. Going by the same index you can define a number in the bin master as well. Based on the capacity of the bin and quants it currently holds, the capacity utilization is calculated.
Thanks

Precalculation SAP Server Capacity before deploy Roll Out Project

Hello Experts,
Kindly any one share your great experience to help our requirement.
We are planning to implement new business scenarios and new client in existing Production server.
Before deploy new business functionalists, what are factors need to consider in existing Production server.
How to precalculate SAP server capacity to adopt new functionality, how affect workload, performance, memory..etc..
Kindly any one the list of factors.. and some standard document.
Regards,
Karthik

Hi Karthik,
First find out the 'capacity' of your current server hardware. Ask the HW provider for the SAPS number of the machines, or look it up on SAP's benchmark sides http://service.sap.com/benchmarks
Then monitor the current usage of your servers to find out how many SAPS you need for the existing functions, and how much headroom you have left.
And for the new functions, look whether some sizing guideline exists (http://service.sap.com/sizing) or if a sizing for the new application is implemented in the quicksizer tool.
With that, it should be a simple a + b = c type calculation.

Analysing SAP Java Memory Usage in Unix/Linux

Hi,
I need to analyze the SAP Java memory usage of Unix /Linux machine..NW 7.0
Please guide with the commands and steps..complete prcedure.
Based on it I should decide whether to create a new server node (or) increasing heap size
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Do you have performance problems?
How many CPU's are in the server?
Did you check Log Configuration for delays or errors?
Did you tune any exisiting parameters?
You can add the nodes only if there is performance problems. You may think of adding one node to start with
Proper number of server nodes within an instance:
u2013 #ServerNodes = availableMemory / (JavaHeapPermSpaceStack)
You can calculate the server nodes based on below formula
No. of server Node = (RAM you want to assign or available RAM in GB)/2.5 ============> for 64-bit system
No. of server Node = (RAM you want to assign or available RAM in GB)/1.5 ============> for 32-bit system
Hence as per above discussion, we should go with 5 server nodes means,
5 = RAM/2.5 (Assuming you are on 64-bit platform)
i.e. RAM = 12.5 GB
2). u2013 Configure JVM heap according to Note 723909 and Note 1008311 - Recommended Settings for NW 7.0 >= SR2 for the AIX JVM (J9)

SAP WM -Capacity check

Hi
Help me to solve this issue.Iam trying to do stock palcement for a material whose Base UOM is Each and Odering UOM is "CAR", CAR=12 EA.Iam trying to place the material intially in the fixed bin ,if the fixed bin is full place in the rack area.
Iam using capacty indicator "4" (based on article) for the rack area, defined capacity usage as "1" in the material master and Total capacity as 500 in the storage bins. when i receive 50 cartons means 600 EA ,i expect 480 EA (40 cartons) to be placed in the first bin and the remainaing 120 EA (10 cartons) in the next bin .But system is throwing the error " Bin capacity is too low ".
when enough empty bins are avialbel y the system throws this errors.
The problem is if all the quantity can't be fit in the fixed storage bin due to its capacity then the remaining has to be put in a rack area.
Is the system to be enough intelligent to split the suitable quantity in two parts in order to fill completly the fix storage bin and the remaining to another storage bin.
Help me to solve the issue.
Regards
Kumar

Hi Kumar
Hope you are using Near Picking Bin putaway strategey. If so, you can choose Capacity Check method in storage type as "3 - Check based on maximum quantity per bin in storage type"
As system will check the maximum quantity defined, available quantity in the bin and suggest suitable overflow/reserve bin and not fixed bin
If bin quantity is less than maximum quantity defined in master level and putaway quantity is well within the maximum quantity, system will suggest Fixed bins

Siva

Capacity usage in Material master

Dear All,

Limit the sap b1 user usage to specific machine

Dear everyone,
We are using SAP Business One 2005B.
We have an requirement of limiting sap b1 user usage to specific machine.
How is this possible?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Ravi

Do you mean to limit or reduce theavailable hardware and software in the specific machine ? I could not udnerstand yet but if you need fast solution, you could download sizing guide contains the explanation about the sioftware and hardware requirement for installation of SBO. Download it from http://www.service.sap.com/smb --> click documentation resource center.
if the limitation related to user usage, you could use authorisation setting in the module administration. It is possible to that.
let me know if need more clear.

SAP B1 capacity

Dear All,
i have one client who might consider to implement SAP B1. The potential risk is: they have around 400-500K item ( no serial no/ batch number is needed); around 4-5 warehouses. Monthly transactions are not many. So, could anyone share with your valuable comment for :
1, any B1 can handle such a large number of item master?
2, Will it be very slow in generating inventory/ sales report? if yes, what's the workaround solution?
3, any suggested hardware configuration? I found that the hardware requirement doc from SAP does not mention anything about the master sizing (so i think i can't reply on it).
Many thanks
Andy

Hello Fergus,
I have experienced the same things with you but not until million items. The answer for your problems as follows:
1. SAP B1 can handle almost over 700 items but not until millions items. I suggest to use R/3 or All in One
2. The slow in inventory generating or sales report could be happened if your hardware requirement can't match what the recommendation from SAP in sizing guide. You must always check the download resource center for sizing guide update version, because SAP is always upgraded the version if there is a very important issue relate to installation.
3. Same as no. 2. Downloading the sizing guide (the new version)
I suggest to use 64-bit rather than 32 bit. It is most recommended to operate large size database server.

SAP Business Partner usage in SD

Need your help!! We want to utilize the SAP business partner
functionality that currently exists in CRM and ECC. We want to
utilze the concept of partner relationships and determine those
on a sales order. Can someone help me understand if this is
possible. we want to use BP transactions to create sold to and
ship tos , rather than VD01 transaction. Thank you so much for
the help!!

Hi Cheryl
You can very well do it in the following path.
SPRO-SD-BF-Partner Determination-Set up partner determination
1.First determine the partner determination at Customer master data level and then include the partner at the Customer you have created
2. Now create a partner determination procedure,at sales document header level.
3. When you create an order, these partners will be automatically updated in the sales order.
If you want the material on partner determination, pls send me a test mail at <REMOVED>

Sapui5 sap.m.TableSelect usage in Jscript

Hi,
I am trying to creating a Jscript view with sap.m.TableSelect. In all the forums, I am able to find only XML views, but not JScript views. Also, I would like to know how I can convert a sample XML view into a JScript view.
Thanks and Regards,
Ashok

Start doing the right thing from start. JSView's should be avoided, invest some time and learn how to create XML views, there are some tools to simplify the procress - web ide, fast designer ( https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/250426883/FastDesign/OpenUi5_FastDesigner_1.16.8.html )
BTW, there is no sap.m.TableSelect only sap.m.TableSelectDialog
TableSelectDialog - sap.m

SAP-MRS, What is capacity pots

Hi All
We have implemented SAP MRS/ Multi Resource scheduling along with SAP-Plant Maintenance in EHP6 SAP GUI.
I 've a doubt & 'm not getting clarified on some certain areas reagrding MRS / Will anyone update us with the below given queries?
What are Capacity pots & the various aspects of a RFC behavior of Capacity Pots?
Please explain in brief regarding RFC behavior & Capacity pots
Thanks & Regards
Arnab Lahiri
SAP SupplyChain Consulting
SAP Plant Maintenence/PM

This is one of the hottest area in SAP MRS
Capacity Pots enables appointment booking functionality to book jobs of a certain job type without assigning directly a resource.
The actual assignment between the created appointment and the appropriate resource is done with MRS functionality
either manually or by optimizer.Capacity Pots have basic availability maintained at work center level with respect to job type
which requires qualification of the resource. Resource with multiple qualifications can be hierarchically mapped based on customizing.
Capacity of resources are maintained as full day pot and subsequently hourly based slots can be configured in customizing
“Maintain Capacity pot Time Intervals”The Capacity Pot can be updated for work center and Qualification Category with the Availability.
The Capacity pots get updated when a service order is created and integrated into MRS / when assignment is saved in the planning board
(manually or through optimizer).
Hope this give you clarity if not please get back.

Capacity Planning for workcentre employees

I need to do the planning for my capacities on SAP MRS board but before that I need to understand the capacity planning like Capacitive planning, abstract planning etc. or in other words like if someone can explain the step by step how to do the capacity planning, explaining all this will be a great help.

Gary,
Available Capacity:
Capacities is driven from the work centre settings in the Capacities tab (specifically the button at the bottom of this tab). These values determine the length of the working day, breaks, number of workers and efficiency - resulting in the daily amount of hours available at the work centre.
Capacity Usage:
Order operations are then created and loaded with work centre and hours, and dependent upon the operation control key settings, will then start to "consume" some of the above daily capacity.
Here is a comprehensive PDF document on the subject
Hope this helps..

Warehouse capacity values

Hello All,
I am looking for the the functionality in SCM that would help my organisation put "capacity" for warehouse/plant may be for every day or even every hour so when when the order scheduling takes place, it takes into account the capacity and possibly allocate the next day delivery if there is no capacity available.
Example: On 23rd Feb, our warehouse can process 200 orders having 1200 units. If there is a backlog of 180 orders with 1150 units, the next upcoming order of 50 will be processed today so system should provide CGID of today but if the order is for 110, then it goes to tomorrow's CGID. The capability should definitely exist somewhere because how else can you set the GATP to work accurately if you don't have restrictions enabled.
If such functionality do not exist, I want to understand what is the nearest capabilty that we can take advantage of.
Thanks,
Ali

The storage type customizing defines how you do capacity checks.
No capacity check
Check according to maximum weight
Check based on palletization accord. to SUT 1
Check based on maximum quantity per bin in storage type
Usage check based on material
Usage check based on SUT
Usage check based on material plus SUT
Based on these settings SAP allows maintenance of appropriate fields in create/change storage bin and uses those storage bin fields and fields from material master to calculate capacity values for the quant (table LQUA) and capacity usage in table LAGP.
Capacity calculation is a wide area in WM, almost no customizing, small maintenance in master data, but a large area for creating errors in fields of table LQUA, LAGP while doing movements.
I recommend to read the single field helps (F1) and compare all with the info from OSS note 392776.
