Seamless Integration between Plan and Forecast Data at KF level

I have data in 2 IC like below:

2011.05                   2011.12      300
Master Data for Forcaste Version:
*Forecaste Version         FLAG*
2011.04                   Prior
2011.05                   Current
Now while creating Query, I need one KF called "Current Forecast Amount", So I need to go to master data and see forecast version against 'Current' and go to forecast cube abd selecet Amount under that Forcast Version. I did it with the help of Customer exit variable on Forcast Version. so its displaying data as below(From fiscalperiod 2011.05 it will pick 300):
2011.01     2011.02     2011.03   2011.04   2011.05    2011.06    2011.07   2011.08   2011.09   2011.10   2011.11   2011.12
                            300         300           300           300          300          300          300         300
Now requirement is to seamless integrate actuals with forcast data. Like let's take KF "Current Forecast Amount" we created above, so it should display data like below in the KF( From 2011.01 to 2011.04 it;s 100 from ACTUAL IC, from 2011.05 to 2011.12 it's 300 from Forcaste IC) :
===Data from Actual IC==========      =================Data from Forecaste Cube==========================
2011.01     2011.02     2011.03 2011.04 || 2011.05 2011.06 2011.07 2011.08 2011.09 2011.10 2011.11. 2011.12
100        100      100      100     || 300      300        300      300         300         300     300      300
This Query has no variable restriction it means this will display data from all the years. And structure of the KF section is as below:
Fiscal Period
KF's.......
Current Forecast Amount
Can we achieve this at query level? Please help me, I am stuck here.

Hi Suman,
Thank you for your reply. Users will be using this query dynamically ( no parameters at all in the query). I need to find a dynamic solution for this.
Do you have any idea for below question:
Let's say my Column structure is as below:
FiscalYear Period
KF's
Amount
and we run this query without any parameter, and we get out as below:
2001.01 2001.02 .................2001.12............................2002.05..........................2010.01
100 100 10 20 30
Can we know by any chance what's the current value of fiscal year period for KF amount any time? Any way to find this?
If I get this value, I will be able to derive my KF.
Regards
Aman

Seamless Integration Between Weblogic and Oracle Portal Server

Hi,
Can someone please give me some insight into Seamless integration from Weblogic Portal Server to Oracle Portal Server.
The Scenario is as:
A user logs into the Weblogic Portal, this Portal desktop displays some portlets. Links on these portlets navigate the user to the portlets deployed on Oracle Portal.
Is this feasible, and what version of the 2 servers would support this feature.
Can someone please snd across online resources which deal with my doubt.
many Tx.

You might want to consider using WSRP to aggregate portlets deployed on
Oracle into WLP. Check edocs and dev2dev for some info on WSRP in WLP.
You can use 8.1 SP3 or later.
Check with Oracle to find out which version of their product offers WSRP
support.

What file acts as bridge between Planning and relational data source?

Hi any one knows the answer plz give me reply ..

Hi,
Planning communicates to the relational data source through a number of Java classes using JDBC.
Business rules also use the hyperion RMI service to communicate to planning.

Data Integration between HFM and HP

Hi all,
I'd like to get your opinions on HP-HFM integration design consideration. In a holding company, there are HP and HFM applications. Actual data will be transferred from distinct ERP systems of subsidiaries to holding HP application. There needs to be a data flow from HP to HFM for actual, budget and forecast data. Afterwards, actual, budget and forecast consolidation will be handled in HFM. My question is about data entry of intercompany details. There are 2 options:
1. The subsidiaries can enter budget and forecast data in HP without ICP details and after the data is transferred to HFM, they can allocate ICP_none amount ( which will be the total amount coming from HP) into ICPs.
2. A new dimension for ICPs can be created in HP and the subsidiaries can also enter ICP details in HP, so they can have a single point for data entry. Afterwards, the data with ICP details can be transferred to HFM for consolidation purposes.
Which option would you choose and why? or do you have any other recommendations?
I appreciate your opinions.
Thanks a lot,
Yasmin

Hi,
Why don't you check the One-Stop Shop for SBO SDK Help files that can be accessed at:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/developerareas/businessone.sdn?node=linkDnode10
There is a tool called Data Transfer Workbench for batch uploads.
Also, it might be possible to use MS SQL Server DTS for a bit faster updates.
Last but not least, there is a course TB1300 on SDK, attending that or reviewing the class materials may be useful.

Planning and forecast

Hello All ,
I am looking for planning functionality of CRM
My requirements are:
Allow to sales man insert forecast for year including products, quantity, and customer per every month.
This data should be used for planning later.
Some ideas?
Thank you very much ,
Rika
P.S. We are implementing now SAP CRM 2006 .

Hi Rika,
i specifically do not know which module will be used for the planning functionality in crm for your requirement but what you can do is using BI and using keyfigure planning you can prepare the planning functioanlity and in your landscape when there is integration between BI and CRM it can be used to plan the forecast also.
We have done for CRM5.0 with BI and we done the KPI for the sales team to make sales forecast for the period month,quarter, halfyearly and yearly based on 5 measures like geography,product,sales rep etc. when the actual sale is done then it is taken from the CRM to make the plan vas actual forecast.
It was totally a custom development that we have done.
Thanks and if helpful reward points

Integration between SAPAPO and Oracle

Hi Experts,
Here, we have a customer who wanna make planning using SAP APO, and the execution system is Oracle ERP system, they want to make seamless integration between SAP APO system and Oracle ERP system, are there any ones who know how to make it? Could you please give me some ideas or show me some document links? if you can show me one example, that will be good.
Thanks a lot.
Su

Hi Su,
I donot have any best practices, still let me try to put my views on this.
The things required for planning in APO.
1) Master data -
Can be created alone in APO -- yo uma yneed to use BAPIs to create mass numbers.
2) Transaction data -
We were doing this incase of stocks. we are using BAPIs to create stocks of type (stock,Punchase orders,Purchase requisitions). Legacy system calls this BAPI and they load data with spread sheets to create in APO.Please check if is it is possible incase of Sales orders & other transaction data.
3) Sending planning results to Legacy : Here you will have to write cutom programs to send results back to Legacy (For example IDocs).
4) Apart from above you may need to develope few custom reports to ensure consistency b/w legacy & APO (to compliment /SAPAPO/CCR functionality).
Hope this gives atleast an idea on what has to be done.
Best Regards,
Deepthi

Actuals and Forecast Data

Hi BI Gurus,
I have a sales multiprovider(zsd_mc01) which contains the Actual data and forecast data.
Actual data is coming from my sales cube(0sd_c03) and Forecast data is coming from the Forecast cube,Integrated Planning (Zsd_for).
Now I have a keyfigure Actual quantity in Actual cube and forecast quntity in forcast cube.
If I create a query actual/forecast quantity on multiprovider I need to populate the actual and forecast data in a single row in the report.
Example:
If the user enters april 2007,
The data should be populated in a single row like this:
Jan2007,Feb2007,March2007,April2007 Actual quantity ...from May2007 to December 2007 Forecast quantity.
How I can Proceed for Populating Actuals and Forecast Data in a Single Row.
I am getting in Two rows but I need it in one row.
Please Suggest any solution on this...I will appriciate and rewarded
Thanks,

Hi Irwin,
I was not around for a few days, hence, delay in writing this to you.
I am going to give to some kind of a pseudo code here. You might need to take help from an ABAPer to close the open ends here (Please excuse me here incase you yourself have an expertise in ABAP, I am just assuming otherwise).
Going back to my earlier response to your question, I am considering two variables:
 ZC_ACTV: For Actuals
 ZC_FORV: For forecasts
You would need to create them as Customer-Exit kind of variables. They should be able to hold dates.
I am assuming that you already have a User Entry variable for entering month on the selection screen. I'll call it ZP_MON (Please substitute the actual name).
Now, the code in the include ZXRSRU01, within the CASE-ENDCASE statement, would look something like this.
* Some data declaration in the beginning, if already not there.
 DATA: l_s_range TYPE rsr_s_rangesid.
 DATA: loc_var_range LIKE rrrangeexit.
* For ZC_ACTV
 WHEN 'ZC_ACTV'. " Variable name
 DATA : v_year(4) TYPE n ,
 v_mon(6) TYPE n , "This is assumed to be in format YYYYMM
 v_amon(6) TYPE n ,
 v_fday LIKE sy-datum ,
 v_lday LIKE sy-datum .
 IF i_step = 2.
 LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO loc_var_range WHERE vnam = 'ZP_MON'.
 CLEAR l_s_range.
 v_mon = loc_var_range-low.
 v_year = v_mon+0(4).
 CONCATENATE v_year '0101' INTO v_fday. "This will create 1st Jan for entered year
 ADD 1 to v_mon.
 CONCATENATE v_mon '01' INTO v_lday.
 v_lday = v_lday - 1. " This will create last day of the entered month
 l_s_range-low = v_fday .
 l_s_range-sign = 'I' .
 l_s_range-opt = 'EQ' .
 l_s_range-high = v_lday .
 APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
 EXIT.
 ENDLOOP.
 ENDIF.
* For ZC_FORV
 WHEN 'ZC_FORV'. " Variable name
 DATA : v_year(4) TYPE n ,
 v_mon(6) TYPE n , "This is assumed to be in format YYYYMM
 v_amon(6) TYPE n ,
 v_fday LIKE sy-datum ,
 v_lday LIKE sy-datum .
 IF i_step = 2.
 LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO loc_var_range WHERE vnam = 'ZP_MON'.
 CLEAR l_s_range.
 v_mon = loc_var_range-low.
 v_year = v_mon+0(4).
 CONCATENATE v_year '1231' INTO v_lday. "This will create 31 Dec for entered year
 ADD 1 to v_mon.
 CONCATENATE v_mon '01' INTO v_fday. " This will create last day of the entered month
 l_s_range-low = v_fday .
 l_s_range-sign = 'I' .
 l_s_range-opt = 'EQ' .
 l_s_range-high = v_lday .
 APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
 EXIT.
 ENDLOOP.
 ENDIF.
Once again, if the granularity of your cube is monthly, then this logic would change accordingly.
This should help. Feedback is awaited.
Best regards,
Sanyam

How does the integration between CRM and SD occur

How does the integration between CRM and SD occur? Is only via ALE and are there config steps in CRM to ensure the correct data mapping between CRM and SD?
So, if I create an order or quote in CRM how is it then created in SD? Or do they share the same data store.
thanks

Hi John,
Here is good documentation regarding Data Exchange for Sales Transactions: the CRM Enterprise and the ERP System are two different repositories, If you create the Sales Order in CRM then they will be replicated into SD (using CRM Middleware, BDoc's)
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm60/helpdata/en/52/2d0c38941e5666e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
Also you can check the best practice guide for CRM 2007 there you have plenty of information

SAP ERP - Demand Planning and Forecasting

Dear all,
my customer is a wholesale company. They want to use a component in SAP ERP (not SAP APO), in order to make demanding planning and forecasting for the materials , quantities and dates they should make the purchases in order to cover the demand of their customers. What is the component that should be used in order to achieve this?

MRP can be used without production planning. SOP and Demand Management are not Production.
Nevetheless, if you want a simpler planning cycle, provided that you understand its ads and cons, you could go for Consumption Based Planning MRP.
See this link for details:

Integration between SAP and third party tax software

can some body explain me or provide me docs regarding integration between sap and third party tax software like vertex.
Thanks

Hi
First configure the same via the following menu path:
1.) IMG>Financial accounting>Financial accounting global settings>Taxes on sales/purchases>Basic settings>External tax calculation>Define physical destination
2.) Then test connection (option is available there).
3.) If the connection is successful, also verify that the external tax package installed supports the R/3 4.6 version of the API. You do that by going to:
System Information>Function List
Check if the following functions are listed:
RFC_CALCULATE_TAXES_DOC
RFC_UPDATE_TAXES_DOC
RFC_FORCE_TAXES_DOC
RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION
4.) Then test the tax data retrieval:
From SE37, select the relevant function modules like RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION.
The above 4 steps are necessary to satisfy that the RFC connection is established
Hope useful

How to differentiate b/w Plan and actual data

Hi,
How to differentiate b/w plan nad actual data.
Is that value type or Version InfoObject??
What should be the value for that and how it gets populated ??
Regards,

Hello Tapan,
The plan and actual data is differentiated on the basis of value of infoobject 0VTYPE. Value 10 is for actual. Different plan versions can be differentiated by different values of infoobject 0VERSION.
These values are populated when actual data is loaded or plan data is entered.
Hope it helps.

Best practice for Plan and actual data

Hello, what is the best practice for Plan and actual data? should they both be in the same app or different?
Thanks.

Hi Zack,
It will be easier for you to maintain the data in a single application. Every application needs to have the category dimension, mandatorily. So, you can use this dimension to maintain the actual and plan data.
Hope this helps.

Is it a Bug? Integration between Dreamweaver and Fireworks is broken in somewhere?

I can not upload images related my topic here but you can see
it in the same topic at
http://www.fireworksguruforum.com/index.php?showtopic=14282
I use CS3 Suite. It is a big trouble for me in working on
real pages. Integration is broken in somewhere else and after that
point it becomes impossible to work on Fireworks through
Dreamweaver.
I've made test to show this trouble and I narrowed the
problem to the pictures as shown in the figures below,
1) In figure one I am creating a completely new Fireworks
file as arrow.png with two frames and one slice in it. After I am
saving it as .png I am exporting it as .html with images in /images
subfolder.
2) After saving and closing the file in Fireworks, in figure
two, I am opening the html in Dreamweaver and changing the page
properties by writing zeros to page margins and by changing the
default font.
-----I guess in this point something happens which breaks the
integration between FW and DW--------because;
3) In figure three I am opening the .png through Dreamweaver
(by "Edit") and changes the place and size of the slice a little
bit
4) When I press Done in Fireworks I see this picture in
figure four in Dreamweaver which shows integration between FW and
DW about table structure is broken. (In this point if I add any
behaviur to the slice DW doesn't recognize it, or any other change
in FW can not be recognized by DW)
5) In order to show this broken integration in table
sturucture, I am putting a new slice to png when Editing from DW in
FW.
6) When I click on Done in DW I see this picture on the
figure six. Beacuse FW doesn't have any effect on html's table
structure code.

I can reproduce your results, but I don't consider this a
bug; just a
limitation of Roundtrip editing.
You can't add or change slices without re-exporting the html
from
Fireworks. Roundtrip is for image editing, not for altering
the table
structure. If I edit, and re-export, my table remains intact.
If you want to edit the slices and resulting html, open the
PNG file
independently of Dreamweaver, change your slices and images
and then
choose File > Update HTML (this option is not available
when in
Roundtrip mode). FW will ask you to locate the html file.
When located,
you will have the options of
Replace Images and Their HTML - replaces the previous
Fireworks HTML.
Update Images Only - overwrites only the images.
As an aside, the rigid table created by FW is rarely
desirable for a
production web site.

Difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source

HI,
What is the difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
In addition to above differences. Below is the functional difference between 0FI_AP_30 & 0FI_AP_4:
0FI_AP_4 gives you accounts payable line items in your report. Here GL account shows the balances of particular types of vendors/payables to which that particular GL account is been assigned.
And If subledger is activated in ECC, then by using 0FI_AP_30 you can get the break up of that particular GL balance according to vendors.
To make use of datasource 0FI_AP_30, subledger accounting must be activated in ECC.
