SOP planning periods

We are planning products in SOP where the planning period is a generated period (weeks and months). Planning will be done first in period weeks and then in months i.e., the requirements will be entered for first 4 periods as weeks and then for next 2 periods as months.
Example
Planning
Period           Requirements
Week 1     100
Week 2     250
Week 3     300
Week 4     400
Month 1     1500
Month 2     2000
Now we redesigned our planning period pattern as days, weeks and months.
i.e., Week 1 and Week 2 as days then weeks and months as above.
Example
Day 1
Day 2
Day 15
Week 1
Week 2
Month 1
Month 2
In Set parameters for info structures and key figures if we define the planning periodicity as T (Day), W (Week), M (Month) and generate the period, the system is giving an information message
No technical period generated for period unit 'day'
Message no. MA866
And the period is automatically changed to day.
Period unit 'day' is used as planning period unit
Message no. MA859
There is NO PERIOD GENERATION in the info structure?
Is it possible to generate the period pattern as Days, weeks and months ? How ?
Thanks
Soundar

Dear rajesha
The fiscal year variant will be generated when you save the set parameters for info structure.
In this case the the planning period is chaged to days and no fiscal year variat is generated.
Thanks

"Error determining planning periods for calendar " when running a program

Hi,
When i am running a program with date range say "01/05/2011" to "30/06/2011",the program is executing successfully without any error. When i am executing the same program with date range as a) "01/05/2009" to "30/06/2011" and b)"01/05/2008" to "30/06/2011" the program is failing with error as "Error determining planning periods for calendar". Can anyone suggest me what i should do to avoid the failure of the program with above date ranges also.
Thanks in advance,

Dear,
Error message 61123:"Error determining planning periods for calendar &".The PPC planning calendar specified in the material master MRP 2 view for the material is incorrectly.
The planning calendar periods are insufficiently maintained for the planning calendar used.
Check the period of planning calendar in MD26 and generate the correct period.You can avoid the problem in several ways:
Maintain the planning calendar far enough in the future (at least until beyond the end of the planning horizon).
Also check any demand is lies beyond the validity period of planning calendar.
Reduction of the planning horizon of MRP also can control such issue, as MRP planning horizon lies in an area in which the planning calendar is no longer maintained

OSA - Higher manager in planning period

I can use the higher manager role in the part appraisal status but I can not use it in the planning period. Is there any way to use higher manager in the planning period?
Regards,

Hi,
Did you activate the WF for that particular Workflow?
Check the Tcod SWDD and here give The Workflow id 12300122 and chek the triggering event. It should be activated (Green color).
Also you can simulate the Higher level manager for the same appraisal document.
Do the Following to simulate the Agent.
1. Goto PFAC and give Rule = 12300020 and goto display
2. Now Press (Shift + F8) to simulate the rule.
3.In the Pop-up screen, give the appraisal docuemnt id and press F8 button.
4. You will get the Higher level manager if you have assigned it to the appraisal document.
5. If nothing is coming here, then the Higher level manager is not assigned to Document.
6. Get the help of an ABAPer for Workflow related testing if needed.
Hope this helps you.
Reward if helpful.

Error determining planning periods for calendar

Hello SAP Guru's
We are receiving the above error when trying to go into MD04 for a particular material. we have checked the forecast agains the planning calendar and the dates in the forecast and demand planning are approximately 2 years less than the end date in the planning calendar.
Checking SAP it has said to extend the planing calendar past the planning horizon. It is already extended past the planning horizon.
The only issue with this product is that the material will soon be superseded by another material, this has a different calendar assigned to it. Could this be the problem?
Any info gratefully received.
Thanks
Sue

Hello Vicky,
The error occurs when first going into MD04. The exact error message is as follows:
Error determining planning periods for calendar M14
Message no. 61123
Diagnosis
The system could not determine sufficient planning periods by the planning calendar to group requirements by planning calendar periods for all the requirements planned in the future.
System Response
When a material is planned by using the periodical lot size by planning calendar, sufficient periods must be calculated to group requirements by the planning calendar for all requirements.
Procedure
Rework the planning calendar with which the material was planned, which means calculate new planning calendar periods.
To do this, go to Customizing for MRP, under the activity Change PPC periods.

option 1. day level-----
day -               05.12.2009      06.12.2009       07.12.2009   08.12.2009
quantity           1000                1300                  0                   800
option 2. month level------
month                         12.09         01.10

Budgeting and Planning periods in Comensation Management

Hi guys,
Do budgeting periods and Planning periods have to be the same in compensation management? Based on the SAP documentation, I understand that planning period can be different from budgeting period? What if my client has budget period from 01/01/2009 to 12/31/2009 and his planning period from 04/01/2009 to 03/31/2009? It should not matter to me since we are assigning the budgets to the adustment types. What are your views on this? Can you please let me know @ the earliest?
Thanks in advance
Sri

HI,
You can have different budget period and planning periods...it depends upon how the client wants it but you need to check how the amount assigned to an employee is deducted and from which budget period..
eg. budget periods
01.01.2008 31.12.2008
01.01.2009 31.12.2009
Planning period 01.04.2008 31.03.2009
Planning period is overlapping 2 budgets hence will the amount for april to december be deducted from first budget and for the remaining 3 months from the second budget period.

Transfer SOP plan to Demand Mgmt

Dear friends,
I have created SOp through MC88. And i wants to transfer SOP plan to demand management through t.code MC74.
While filling the data in the fields, i do not know what to enter in the field "Version" either "00" or "GP".
Please guide me what data to be entered in the "version" field?
Thanks
Shri

If i understand clear on your querry you want to transfer the SOP plan to the demand management.
1.In such case you can use any version.
2.But the version needs to be active .
version in Demand Management:
1. these are used to just manage the diff types of demand in the demand table just for recognising them
2. If they are active then they will be included int he MRP ELSE no.
let me know if you need more answers

No, you cannot add another vPC peer-keepalive configuration.
Taking down vPC peer-keepalive will not affect your vPC peer-link and vPC operation. It will be a problem if and only if vPC peer-link went down after the peer-keepalive is down first, this will cause dual active.

Hyperion Planning : Period Dimension in Days

I need to realize a period dimension in days! Moreover i need to have an organization in week whic include the existence of week day (Sunday, Monday..) to make a comparison beetween all Sunday in differnet Year.
Is it possible to have a native calendar function in Hyperion Planning, or Does exist another way to solve this problem?
Thanks

Best practice would be to use Period dimension down to weeks then create a 'Days' dimension which holds the weekdays, this will help your blocksize too and will allow the reporting requirements you have mentioned.

Multiple planning periods on a day

Hi All,
I am using periodic lot sizing where in I am getting deliveries from vendor for number of times on a day to cover multiple requirements on a day. I have defined planning calendar where in at this moment I am able to maintain maximum three periods on a day. But vendor delivers almost 10 times a day. So I want to define upto 10 periods on single day. Do we have any BAdi or user exit to make it possible?
Please let me know If you need more information about requirement.
Thanks,
Shirish

Hi,
Can you check whether Time Phased Planning in R3 suits your needs.Here you define Planning cycle along with delivery cycle.

System calculate days supply automaticly, this that no of days required to maintain that stock level,
In the standard planning table, choose Edit-Create production plan-and the desired strategy (either Synchronous to sales, Zero stock level, Target stock level, Target daysu2019 supply, or Plan externally).
