Scheduling changeover times in non working times

PP/DS heuristics and or the PP/DS optimiser will not automatically place changeover times in non working times, however other smaller APS systems have such functionality. Has anyone come across this or have a method to use to get APO to do this? May be it should be a new development?

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for your reply. Yes i am aware of this setting - this is the standard approach, however do you know of a way automatically (heuristic or optimiser) schedule the set up segment of an order into non working times whilst keeping the produce section in productive time? I know you can amend the strategy and use that in the heuristic but it will schedule all parts of the order in the non working time if it can.
Thanks
Fred

Defining Working Times - Incorrect Scheduling Result for non-Working Date

Hi All,
We are on SAP R/3 46C and in the process of implementing 'Route Schedules' for our outbound delivery processing.
One of the pre-requisite customising requirements for 'Route Schedules' is to maintain 'Working Times' for the Shipping Point for precise scheduling.
We have defined a 24 hour shift between Monday and Friday in the 'Working Times' config (IMG -> Logistics Execution -> Shipping -> Basic Shipping Functions -> Scheduling -> Delivery Scheduling and Transportation Scheduling -> Maintain Working Hours).
The 24 hour shift is defined as follows Start: 00:00:00 with a Finish at 24:00:00 (We initially had 23:59:59, however, encountered problems with this config). We have also maintained a 24 hour Pick/Pack time in Customising, and we do not use Loading Times.
We have encountered a problem when we key a Sales Order Item where the ATP confirmed qty Delivery Date results in a Material Availability Date on a 'Friday', in this scenario, the system determines a one day 'Loading Time' which falls on a Saturday at 00:00:00. This outcome is incorrect on two levels - 1) we do not use 'Loading Times' in our system, 2) a non-working day (Saturday) has been selected. An important exception to this outcome - if a Route is not selected for the Sales Order item, the outcome described above does not eventuate.
Any assistance in explaing possible causes of this unusual result would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Ravelle
When we display our time streams via report 'ZZTSTRDISP' (OSS Note 169885)
The system shows our 24:00:00 Finish time is converted to 00:00:00 which incorrectly rolls into the next day - on a Friday this means our shift finishes on a Saturday at 00:00:00

Hiding non-working time in Team Planner View

Hello there. The tasks in my project are typically between 2-5 hours over a week period. In Team Planner View, I'm hoping to provide a better representation of free time between tasks by making my bottom tier hours in a 4 hour count. However,
decreasing the scale forces the Task names become cut off when the event itself shrinks.
I was hoping to remove the non-working time (i.e., nights and weekends) from the Team Planner view to enable a better view. I'm aware that the capabilities of Team Planner View seem to be limited, but is this type of formatting at all possible?
Thanks for the help,
Joe

Joe --
After I created my response and posted it, I wondered whether you wanted to completely remove the nonworking time periods. This is not possible. The best you can do is to remove the shading for nonworking time periods, but you cannot remove them
entirely in any view. Hope this helps.

How to forward support messages to SAP in non-working time automatically?

Hi colleagues and Happy New Year!
I have a question: how to forward support messages to SAP at non-working time automatically?
Details:
when a support message is created at working time it shouldn't leave my system, but when
a support message is created at non working time, for example, on saturday night it should be sent to SAP automatically. Where in the system I can find the options to customize it to provide these requirements?

Non- Working Time

In sap when i am trying to create a/p invoice based on a grpo and the posting date and due date is 06/01/08 (which is sunday) the system throws following prompt" 06/01/08 is defined as non- working time? continue. yes,no.". The calender defined for the company in the system is of yr 2006 and weekend as saturday to sunday.
-"Valid for one yr only" box is selected
-"Ignore weekends for payments" is NOT selected
Also system never threw this msg when i created a po and grpo.
please let me know why the system has thrown this prompt.

Hi Kapil,
The solution to this problem lies in the fact that you must have mentioned the Payment Date in the BP master data for the vendor......this window is appearing in the Payment Terms Tab in the BP master Data below Holidays.
Use the window to define the days each month in which your customer usually pays the open invoices, or the days each month that your company pays its vendors.
Example
When 10 and 20 are defined in the Payment Dates window for a certain customer, the invoice due dates are calculated as follows:
·        If the posting date is between the 1st and the 10th of a certain month the due date of the invoice is the 10th of that same month.
·        If the posting date is between the 10th and the 20th of a certain month the due date of the invoice is the 20th of that same month.
·        If the posting date is after the 21st of a certain month the due date of the invoice will be the 10th of the next month
Hope this helps.....reward points if helpful

Displaying Non-Work time for all resources via a Calendar?

I am looking for a way to display a calendar or a view of all resources that will show the planned vacation time for each resource based on the "non-work time" set in each resource calendar.

Hi,
As workaround solution, through P6 professional you can create a report with choosing
"Resources" as subject Area and selecting "Time Distributed Data" option and,
At "Time Intervals Field" you can select "Limit" to be distributed.
This will give you a tabular report showing resource limit over selected period with selected intervals.
Regards,
Marcos

Non working times report in pwa 2010

how can I report out non working time for resources?

See this similar
post for a code oriented solution for resources.
This
post gives a similar code for project exceptions.
Otherwise, select Reports | Assignment | Who Does What, edit the Report, and then within the Details Tab, select Calendar under the resource column. It will list each resource's calendar and non working time. See reference
here.
Hope this helps,

Adobe PDF won't print non-working time colour in MS Project

Adobe PDF won't print the colour chosen for non-working times in MS Project. I have tried changing the colour, changing the style, moving non-working time in front of tasks and have fiddled with the printer properties, all to no avail. It ignores whatever style I have for non-working time and makes a blank space, although it will take gridline changes . . . . please help!

Thank you for providing the suggestion and the Cleanup tools, however they did not help.
I ran each version of the cleanup tool, and for each I had it clean up Reader and Acrobat (i.e. 4 separate cleanup operations). I then rebooted the machine, and installed Reader 11.0.3.
Still had the same behavior: Reader will not print. I tried printing to a second printer (that is attached via USB)...and it did not work either. I also tried printing to a Cute PDF Writer print driver...and that did not work either. In each case, no print data made it to the Windows print queue (as demonstrated by watching the queue while printing.) No error was raised, but no print data was transmitted.
I then uninstalled Reader 11.0.3, rebooted, and re-installed Reader 9: printing works fine now.
There is definitely something in Reader 10 and Reader 11 that breaks printing in some environments. (As you alluded to...I have seen a number of postings online about printing problems in Reader.)

Note 403102 - Offset takes non-working time of resource into account

Hello Friends,
I have implemented the OSS notes 403102 for considering the offset value without considerding the non working time of the resource in APO system.
but as i have implemented the sample code given there(copy & Paste) the functionality seems to be not working.
the productive hours maintained in the transaction /SAPAPO/RES01 is 8.5 hrs.
previously the system was considering the productive hours as 24 and was calculating.
after implementation of the notes if I specify a 4 days offset iam getting 3.5 days offset . for 6 days its 5 days offset.
does anyone faced this issue.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
if u any code modification u can mail to me at [email protected]
Thanx & Regards,
Mahadev Shetty.

Calculate Date/Time Difference in a Calculated Column Omitting Weekends, Holidays and Non-Working Hours

I am looking for a formula to use in a calculated column that calculates the difference between two date/time fields while excluding weekends, holidays and non-working hours
6/1/2010 9:43 AM - 6/7/2010 1:45 PM
Here is the closest that I have gotten; however, this formula gives me a result of 96:
=IF(AND((WEEKDAY([Resolved Date],2))<(WEEKDAY(Created,2)),((WEEKDAY(Created,2))-(WEEKDAY([Resolved Date],2)))>1),(((DATEDIF(Created,[Resolved Date],"D")))-(FLOOR((DATEDIF(Created,[Resolved Date],"D")+1)/7,1))-3),(((DATEDIF(Created,[Resolved Date],"D")))-(FLOOR((DATEDIF(Created,[Resolved
Date],"D")+1)/7,1)*2))*24)
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated!

I don't know how to exclude holidays but i exclude weekends(Sat&Sun)-
IF(ISERROR(DATEDIF([Start Date],[End Date],”d”)),””,(DATEDIF([Start Date],[End Date],”d”))+1-INT(DATEDIF([Start Date],[End Date],”d”)/7)*2-IF((WEEKDAY([End Date])-WEEKDAY([Start
Date]))<0,2,0)-IF(OR(AND(WEEKDAY([End Date])=7,WEEKDAY([Start Date])=7),AND(WEEKDAY([End Date])=1,WEEKDAY([Start Date])=1)),1,0)-IF(AND(WEEKDAY([Start Date])=1,(WEEKDAY([End Date])-WEEKDAY([Start Date]))>0),1,0)-IF(AND(NOT(WEEKDAY([Start Date])=7),WEEKDAY([End
Date])=7),1,0))

Scheduled Install Time or AU Scheduled Install Time

Hello Everybody:
Hoping to get some insight from the helpful technet community in regards to getting my SCCM up and working. I have been labbing this up for close to 2 weeks and still have yet to get my updates pushing to my agents/servers on a scheduled install with
a reboot. I have created device collections based on my OUs in AD. Then created the appropriate ADRs which then these auto created the deployment packages, and software update groups alike. Under my SUP shows two groups I created both deployed,
both downloaded and 100% compliant. Looks great. However on my schedule install on the ADR is simply never installs updates. After tons of reading I figured it was a setting with my GPO which I have been toying with as I had a WSUS deployment
in my lab prior. Currently the only GPOs applied and confirmed via RSOP are
-Configure Automatic Update - Auto download and schedule the install 2am
-Allow signed updates from an intranet microsoft update service location
**The specify intranet microsoft update service location is enabled, by local group policy, courtesy of SCCM
However still not working. I am seeing this in the windowsupdatelog on the downstream agents.

AU Setting AU scheduled install time to 2014-01-19 08:00:00
I am seeing conflicting info in this log, I see the GPO applying a AU scheduled install time for 8am, which I have NO idea where that is coming from. My evaluation schedule is set to run every Sunday at 1am, with deployment schedule
ASAP on both settings with user experience deadline behavior check boxes both checked and commit changes at deadline checked.
Can anyone let me know what I am missing. I also created a maintenance windows on the device collections for 11pm - 5am every Sunday so the updates could be applied. I am just so confused and my google results have just ran thin.
Any help would be greattttly appreciated.

I posted the above screenshot in regards to the post from Jorgen ( Have you configured a deadline?
The bottom line all I am trying to do is get it working, simple as that. I was told that configuration manager can replace WSUS and I have been working to get it working smoothly for days. What mechanism then controls the WU Client Agent that you
are referring to. Sorry for all the questions, just trying my hardest to get the ADRs to work as they should.

Basic and scheduling dates & time calculation in process order creation

Hi guru's,
i have one requirement, i need to calculate and display the basic and scheduled dates & times based on the given input i.e material , plant , process order type , quantity , UOM and scheduling type ( for corresponding scheduling type user will provide either start date or finish date ) using RFC. can u plz provide any function module for this purpose or logic for calculating the same , as i am working on version 4.7ee .
Awaiting for a quick response.
Regards,
Madan

Dear Rohan,
1.Check the length of break timings defined in the resource that is assigned in the phase.
2.Check in OPUZ whether for the process order type and plant combination whether scheduling is to include the break time also
(whether the check box for scheduling with breaks) is included.
Check and revert back.
Regards
