SOLAR01-Business Scenario client level restriction.
Hi Experts,
I have a client in which i have different business scenarios defined.
New client has been created by copying the exisiting one.
Now i want to delete some of the scenarios in the new client and try to create additional scenarios.
But i dont want to disturb the existing client.
Since it is kind of cross client activity, the change what ever i am making is reflecting in both the clients.
Is there any way to make this as client dependant activity instead of cross client.
In a simple words, Solar01 activity needs to be made as client dependant.
Pls advise..
Thanks in advance.
Hi Brian,
I have the same scenario in my environment consisting of Solution Manager 7.0, "SAP Business Objects Business Planning and Consolidation" but it shows an older product version "SAP BPC 7.0 FOR MICROSOFT, " Only
But in Solution Manager 7.1 System it is showing both ""SAP BPC 7.0 FOR MICROSOFT,SAP BPC 7.0 FOR SAP NET WEAVER".
Please Suggest is anything needs to be done in Solman 7.0 System ?

Solar01 - Business Scenarios/Process/Process steps out of alignment
Hello Folks,
We have a situation where the business process that are now in BPH in Solar01 in Solman should have been business scenario
and same with process step should be process.... Is there any quick way to fix that like going into tables and fixing the
data? If so, Can you please let me know what are the tables in which the Business scenarios, processes and steps or the hierarchy is stored?
Or is there any other way to fix this?
Appreciate your kind response.
Cheers,
VenkyHi Venky,
Unfortunately, there is no way to do it, because the nodes have different types, and it would be like trying to transform one thing in other totally different. You can only recreate the hierarchy manually.

Authorization for specific business scenario or business step in solar01
Dear all,
we have an issue regarding solution manager blueprinting management restricting an access to specific nodes. Our goar is to have several substructures devided by modules like: FI, SD, PS and etc. And each team member according his position in a company should have an access only to his substructure and all the related documentation below that. Saying an access means a change mode not a display access.
Please find the steps have been performed during the configuration of project below:
All the configuration around system landscape has been done properly.
A new project for solution was created in solar_project_admin.
A correct logical componens has been assigned.
All the required users have assigned as a team members of a project.
At the projec. team member tab a box has been checked in for: restrict changes to nodes in project to assigned team members.
A proposed structure of nodes has been created within Tx solar02.
The right team members have assigned to specific node. So that only they suppose to have a change permission within that nodes. All others read only access.
Every user has sap_solar01_all role assigned to him. We have tryed assigning varios roles according to http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm310/helpdata/en/db/a1033b2a98f46ae10000000a11402f/content.htm
However as a result we are having a change permission allowed for every node within the structure. Like FI responsible member can access to any node from a tree. And he can make a change for SD related documentation.
Please assist regarding this issue.
Kind regards,
P.S.
I found a thread with a similar problem which was solved by activating a checkbox which is already activated in our system and actually doesn't solve that problem for us.
Authorization for specific business scenarios in Solar01/02
Edited by: Artjoms Nikulins on Mar 11, 2010 3:37 PMHi
As far my knowldege goes this is not possible to do within same project or making the same.
You can have project specific access given to member but you cannot go module wise authorization.
Ofcourse there satellite system authorization will be different but not in solman.
In addition check this security guide
https://websmp104.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=00200797470000075728&_OBJECT=011000358700007187872005E
Hope it ans ur query.

Make to order Scenario...any client level settings
Hi
please guide me as there any settings which are at Client level or company code level.....
shaileshHi harshad,
If you are asking about MTO please go through below notes:
The Made TO Order Cycle:
The sale department passes on the Made to order-Sales Order to the Material department so that material requirement is analyzed. This is done in SAP by carrying on an MRP Run for all the levels of the product BOM. This MRP Run would create Planned Orders for the shortages. Here the planned orders for fert sub assemblies, Components etc, are created. This planned orders for materials produced in house are converted in to Production order and planned orders for materials
procured from outside are converted in to Purchase order. The creation of Production order through the planned orders will convert all the dependant requirements in to dependant reservations.
The dates of production or purchase are decided through the total replenishment time mentioned in the material master, If it is, in-house production, then the Route times precede over the total replenishment time entered in the material master. And the availability of all the components is ruled by the availability checking rules and by availability checking scopes. Thus whenever the system declares a product to be ready or available by a date it implies that the system has checked the availability of the material with respect to the Ware house stock, in coming stock (Receipts) and all other planned orders already existing for the product or material.
In the Made to order production, sales order produced for Fert and Sub assemblies are converted in to production order during MRP run. The production orders created have a specific quantity, specific Basic start date and a specific Basic Finish Date, a set of operations and a set of component attached from the BOM. In course of production the quantities produced in the operation for an order should be confirmed so that the current status of work is available in real time situation. The components required for production are issued to the production order through goods issue by a movement type 261 and the issue is always made to the reservations or to the order, thereby clearing the reservations. Issues of unplanned components are made as new items issue and not as order issue. The quantities, for an order which are produced completely are the put in to stock i.e. a Goods Receipt is done.
Thus the made to order cycle starts with the sales orders and converting them to Production Orders through MRP Run and there off confirming produced quantities for an order and finally putting the order in to stock.
The Cycle of Made to order: Steps: MTO Scenario
1. Material Creation (Made To order Material with major changes of: Item Category: 0004-make to order/assem.,or 0001-make to order)
2. Route Creation
3. Creation of BOM
4. Sales order
5. Production order Scheduling, Costing, Release and Save
6. Production order Quantity confirmations for operations, Parallel task of material issue to order or to reservations (261)
7. Fully Produced Production Quantities will be put into stock (GR)
8. Delivery against sales order
9. Invoicing.

Sol. Landscape - Business Scenarios from Temp. Project: Compare & Adjust ?
Hi,
In SOLMAN_DIRECTORY, within Business Scenarios, if I were to copy Business Scenarios from a Template Project, is it supposed to help me use the 'Compare and Adjust' functionality ?
I see the icon for this utility, but invariably greyed out at all levels.
The idea is to hold Template Project as the master content provider, even for Support side.
The workaround could be (yet to fully test) to use a Maintenance Project, to compare and adjust and check it in again.
Any ideas welcome - especially, on why the 'Compare and Adjust' icon appears greyed out, in the Solution.
Best regards,
SriniHi Andreas,
The news that your colleague has tested it successfully is very encouraging and gives me hope.
That's the way I was testing as well, with limited success. I couldn't finish testing because the the buttons for Check Out/ Check In Requests disappeared from SOLMAN_DIRECTORY suddenly. Then, I got into SAP Notes search etc.
Can you/ your colleague please confirm if my following understanding is correct and suggest changes where it's wrong:
(1) First, create a Solution and Maintenance Project in the same project language (to get the KW context right)
(2) Create a few Business Scenario Names in Solution Directory (e.g. Procure to Pay, Order to Cash etc.) - as manya s required
(3) Later, assign the Maintenance Project concerned to the Solution, in the tab 'Solution Settings'
Note: (2) is done before (3) since the assignment of a Maintenance Project renders the section greyed out. If it is greyed out, there is nothing to check out at the first place.
(4) Check out the Blank Scenarios to Maintenance Project
(5) In SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN, I would have already pre-selected the relevant scenarios under 'public' Templates, so that they are available in Maintenance Project's SOLAR01/02 under the Business Scenarios folder
(6) Now, when I open the Maintenance Project in say SOLAR02, it would list me the scenarios copied from Template in the usual way (as in say, any normal Implementation Project), and below those folders, it would also list the 'Checked Out' name sake Scenarios from the Solution Directory
(7) I will 'copy' and 'paste' the right Business Processes from the first set of Scenarios (from Template Project) into the Solution Directory blank Scenarios - while doing so, I will retain the right to 'refer' documents and not copy them
(8) I would Check In the structure back into Solution Directory
(9) In say, a months time or so, the Process in Template Project have undergone changes (more process steps added under a process, more documents added/ removed/ changed etc.)
(10) I would open the Maintenance Project after running SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE for the maintenance project. I would do the 'Compare and Adjust' function in the regular Scenarios to get the content adjusted -
BPM - Restict display of Business Scenarios and Processes to Process Owners
Hello Experts,
I have thoroughly researched but have been unable to find an answer to this question. Is it possible within BPM to filter either the business scenario or processes to the owners of that process or scenario. For example if I have BPMon turned on for Finance or OTC scenarios, I only want the people in finance to be able to view and monitor only their finance processes when they receive their alert and the same for OTC and the other process teams. Even at the process level I only want certain process owners to only have access to the processes that they are monitoring. Do you guys know if this is at all possible either through the work centers or dswp to restrict they view based on the business scenario or process?
Thanks
MikeHello Mike,
at the moment there exists only an authorization object on "Solution"-level. So if it is an absolute must to allow views on different processes you would have to plit it into different solutions. But I don't recommend that as you might end up with an unnecessary amount of solutions.
The problem is known for some time and we forwarded it to the group which is generally responsible for the graphical display in Solution Manager, as we are only responsible for BPMon. The plan is to provide the option to create different views containing one or several processes and assigning then only these views to different users or user groups.
The shipment of this solution was targeted for ST400 SP23 but I have currently no information if it is finally within this Support Package.
I will try to follow up on this.
Best Regards

Creating a Business Scenario for CPM BPC 10
Hi Everyone,
I've been trying to create a Business Scenario within my Solution Manager (TCode: SOLAR01). But I've don't see any option related to our version of our Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC 10). The only option I see that is close enough is "SAP BusinessObjects Business Planning and Consolidation" but it shows an older product version "SAP BPC 7.0 FOR MICROSOFT, SAP BPC 7.0 FOR SAP NETWEAVER".
To be clear, the ff is what I'm trying to do.
Steps:
1. TCode SOLAR01
2. Project >> Business Scenarios
3. Source = Business Process Repository
4. Add Scenario Name (F4)
Our SAP BPC software has been installed within our "SAP Netweaver AS ABAP 7.31" as the following Software Component:
Software Component: CPMBPC
Release: 801
Level: 0001
Highest Support Package: SAPK-80101INCPMBPC
Description: CPM Business Planning and Consolidation
So my question is, how do I properly add the business scenario that matches my BPC 10 software component? Is there anything I must do/check first?
Apologies if this might sound very basic, but I'm new to Solman.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
BrianHi Brian,

Business scenarios for daily, weekly and nightly loads!!
Can any body tell some Business scenarios for daily, weekly and nightly loads where we monitor the loads in Production support.
Regards
srikanth.chHi,
It all depends on your business needs. In general on daily basis you will load the SD and MM which will cover all the stock and sales done for day. Generally most of the clients use Lo Cockpit extraction for both the modules. FI chains will run on month end for example the AP(Accounts Payable),AR(Accounts Receivable) chains will be run on the month end.
Some SD datasources : 2lis_13_vdhdr, 2lis_13_vditm, 2lis_13_vdkon - all these to pull billing related data
Some MM Datasource : 2lis_03_bx and 2lis_03_bf.

Row Level Restrictions on DeskI Report not working under InfoView
When running/refreshing DesktopIntelligence XI r3 (Full Client) reports under InfoView, the row-level restrictions applied in the universe are not being included in the SQL (additional filtering is NOT happening). However, if a user creates a report using the same universe in WebIntelligence or if the user runs the same report in DesktopIntelligence, the row-level restrictions are working.
It strikes me that the problem has to do with security rights granted (or not granted), but I can't figure out which settings would allow the proper running of a DeskI report under InfoView.
Thanks for any assistance rendered!Mike,
Do people connect to Infoview and Deski using the same authentication method and the same username?
How does this compare to how your data restrictions are configured?
Are you using @Variable('BOUSER') restrictions? Have you taken domain into account e.g. "Domain\UserName" vs "UserName"? -
Installation of SAP Business One client and required administration rights
Dear community,
I would like to kindly ask you for your feedback on the installation of SAP Business One client and its patches on end-user computers.
The pain points I have heard so far are the following:
- The installation of SAP Business One client and its patches has to be started by a user with administrator rights. As far as I know (and please correct me if I am wrong), this is also required in case of installation of any other software.
- End users usually do not have administrator rights and therefore the SAP Business One clients have to be manually upgraded by administrator. This is time consuming (and therefore costly) activity.
We are considering to design a new solution which would overcome the above limitations.
I would like to confirm with you if my understanding is correct:
Question 1:
Is it a common situation that the end-users of SAP Business One client do not have administrator rights and therefore cannot install the patches of SAP Business One client by themselves?
If yes, how do you resolve this currently?
Question 2:
Do you use Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager or Active Directory (or any other 3rd party solution) to automatically distribute software packages and updates to client PCs at your customers?
Question 3:
If the SAP Business One client installation (and its patches) is delivered as MSI package with silent installation capability, would you be able to automate the deployment of B1 client updates to client PC using the abovementioned technologies? Or can you still see some obstacles?
Thank you
Best regards
Jan Ruzarovsky
SAP Business One Product ManagementDear all,
Thank you very much for your comments, very helpful!
@Marco - SAP Business One 8.8 client currently does not support the silent installation / upgrade. However we are currently considering this requirement and we would like to deliver it as soon as possible.
We are currently considering several possible designs. One of them is as follows:
1. A new SAP Business One Updater Service will be installed on each client workstation.
It will be a windows service installed and running under a local system account.
2. The updater service will check regularly if there are any new patches of SAP Business One client or add-ons uploaded to a configured shared directory.
3. If a new patch is found in the shared directory, the updater service will SILENTLY install the new patch (add-ons, SAP Business One) on the client workstation.
The service would be able to install patches even if nobody is logged in.
Questions:
If we consider the above design, there are a few open topics:
1. During the upgrade of the SAP Business One server, the client patches (and SAP add-on patches, partner add-ons) would be placed to a SHARED directory instead of into SBO-Common (as it is implemented currently).
- Does this have any impact on your tools, processes or add-ons?
2. SAP Business One upgrade wizard will put the latest patch of SAP Business One client into a configured shared directory. The shared directory will have to be read-only for everybody in the network to avoid that the valid installation files are replaced by malware or virus infected files
- Can you configure such a shared directory?
From customer perspective, if a new patch is put into the shared directory, the updater service can behave as follows:
1. Manually initiated upgrade of the client
Example: Customer starts the old (not upgraded) SAP Business One client. The client will inform him/her that a new patch has been found and it has to be installed in order to continue working with the client. After customer clicks "Yes", the upgrader service starts the silent installation of the client and informs customer about the progress. Once the upgrade is finished, the upgraded SAP Business One client will be started automatically.
2. Automatic update:
- Update the client automatically (e.g. overnight) if customer is not working with SAP Business One
- If SAP Business One client is running, ask customer if he/she wishes to upgrade the client now or to delay the upgrade by X minutes.
Question: Which of the above two scenarios would you and your customers prefer?
If the upgrade is fully silent, automated and handled by the upgrader service, Is it acceptable for customers to trigger the installation manually and wait till the client is upgraded? Or would they prefer to have the client updated for them e.g. overnight so they can immediately start to work?
Best regards
Jan

How to connect steps in business scenario
Hello,
After creating a project in Solution Manager, creating a business scenario in that project and creating a custom business process in my scenario, Iu2019ve defined the necessary steps that I want in my process. These steps involve 2 different logical components, a component specified for a SAP XI/PI system and a logical component for SAP ECC system.
The business process will involve interaction between the two logical components where Idocs will be exchanged. My first issue is, in transaction SOLAR01 when I click the tab Graphic, Iu2019m able to see the two separate components each with their steps but with no connection or relation between them or with any step order. Where can I define the order and flow for the steps in the business process? After defining the flow, will the connections be presented in the graphic?
One other question, if this business process involve interfaces, should I define this as a business scenario or as an Interface Scenario? What is the main difference between these two objects? Canu2019t I have only business scenarios and define the steps as interfaces?
Thank your for the attention.
Best regards,
Goncalo Mouro VazHello,
please be aware that only business process maintained in the operations part of SAP Solution Manager. i.e. the Solution Directory, are available for Business Process Monitoring. Processes defined within SOLAR01 are in the project part and hence not directly available for monitoring. But those processes can be copied into the Solution Directory.
For BPMon only "Business Scenraios" are of interest. "Interface Scenarios" need not be maintained but can be used for additional documentation purposes.
Please refer to http://service.sap.com/bpm > Media Library > Technical Information > Setup for Interface Monitoring.pdf
