Spend Performance Management - Quick link

Hi All,
Am unable to delete quick link in Spend Performance Management post upgrade(from 2.0 to 3.0). When clicked delete option in Administration -> Quick Links Configuration, the link is getting populated once again after refreshing the page.
Please help if the quick link needs to be deleted from any other location.
Thanks,
Preetha Balan

Hi Preetha,
I tested this again in my lab. I was able to delete the links from the UI. (It surprised me by taking effect right away.) I logged out/in and my changes persisted as expected.
If the process using OK/SAVE is not working for you – I would have to guess a good place to start is by reviewing authorizations. I would go so far as to assign the user all five standard SPM roles, if that user can do it then it is an authorization issue.
Here are the five SPM roles by name:
SAP_SPM_TRANSPORT
SAP_SPM_USER
SAP_SPM_ADMINISTRATOR
SAP_XSA_DATA_MANAGER
SAP_XA_SS_OWNER
See Chapter five in the security guide for more details.

  • Spend Performance Management

    Hi,
    In spend performance management we have inbound layer, outbound layer, Reporting layer and multiprovider.
    Tha data is passing from one layer to another layer i.e inbound to outbound like...
    But here my question is where is the data coming from and updated in Inbound layer...
    In, Inbound layer consists of all DSO.
    Regards
    KS

    Just to add to to Rohit's Response. As he mentioned, data into Inbound layer is via Direct Update  when you trigger data load from SPM UI there are a bunch of API's that run in the background and get data nd update the Inbound DSO's.
    Next would be moving Data to Detail layer. We do something called as SEND Process in SPM UI and that generates E files in the application server. Then we load these E Files ( Raw Data Files - Out of Inbound DSO's ) , we do Data Standardization and Enrichment basically Data Cleansing of E files and then load these E flles back and thats when we move the data into detail layer DSO's.
    Next would be reporting layer , here we move data from Detail DSO to Cubes using the process of release to reporting and thats when Data Classification happens and this would also ensure that data is available for reporting .
    @ Rohit correct me if I am wrong.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • Flat Data Load in Spend Performance Management

    Dear All,
    We have a new Project, wherein Data from Various Flat Files (Flat Files from Multiple Non SAP Source Systems), needs to be loaded in SPM. We are new to SPM, any step by step documentation for loading Flat Files into SPM using Data Management Tool, will be really helpful.

  • Report scheduling in Spend Performance Management 2.1

    Hi,
    We want to schedule certain reports to build cache table. Report execution will be faster when a user runs it as it is already present in cache.
    I have gone through installation guide which talks about scheduling. Followed the same and when i tried to run http://<host>:<port>/aui_olap/scheduler ,  i don't see any content getting displayed in web browser.
    Working on : SPM 2.1 SP6 Patch 4.
    Please guide me on this.
    Regards,
    Deeraj

    Hi Deeraj,
    You need to do the following
    1) choose a report to schedule to be run. To do this, open a report that is saved, go to "more actions" and click on schedule. Then choose daily.
    2) go to administration -> analysis administration -> application properties, and on that tab change the time that you want it to schedule. Its controlled by the "alerts execution time".
    Save your changes
    Wait for that time to pass, check the cache.
    Thanks
    Neil

  • BOBJ Verssion for Spend Performance Management

    Hi Gurus,
    To install SPM, is there any prerequisit of BOBJ version also, or this is a standalone software on BW?
    Thanks,
    Sajjad.

    Hi Sajjad
    There is no prerequisite dependency of any BOBJ software on the installation of SPM.
    SPM is dependent on BW/NetWeaver and is in that sense stand alone from any BOBJ stack.

  • SPM(Spend Performance Management) on HANA

    Hi Experts,
    I need to implement the solution wherein we need the SPM tool to run directly on HANA.
    Please let me know if any documents available on the same. or if anyone has delivery such a solution.
    Thanks.
    Rohan

    Hi John,
    Thanks for the response. When you say the standard install will do it, could you please guide me on how to go about it. I am new to HANA. Need to know how i would be tackling the implementation of SPM directly on HANA.
    Please let me know the details on the same. Please share the blueprints if any.

  • Spend Performance Management 2.1 SP5 on BW7 EHP1 Patch 6

    Hi All
    The note 1520113 states the following:
    Recommended Pre-Requisites:
    - NW 7.0 SP 21; BW/BI SP 23; BI CONTENT 704 SP5
    or
    - EhP1 for NW 7.0 SP 7; BW/BI SP 7; BI CONTENT 704 SP5
    Our client is using BW7 EHP1, SP6.
    Given that the note states that these are "recommended" rather than "requirements", what comments might you have surrounding the use of SPM2.1SP5 on EHP1 SP6 instead of SP7?
    Obviously the ideal would be for them to update, but as we all know this is easier said than done...
    Rajesh and Rohit, many thanks for your ongoing help and prompt responses.
    Kind regards,
    Neil

    Hi Neil
    The recommended levels are just what you stated, recommended. That means that we have tested with those levels. If there are any bug fixes that have comein as part of a particular SP then yiou would need to make sure that those bugfixes are also available as independent notes that you could apply on the side on top of your own SP level.
    So to answer your question, you could go lower, but you would need to verify that all fixes in the recommended SP can be brought in (individually as notes) in your lower SP.
    For the 2.1 release, for BI content, the recommended is actually 704 SP7. But the minimum required is 704 SP5. If you are not going to go with SP07 then there would be a need to apply manual content corrections explained in the note 1410526.
    Hope that answers!
    Regards
    Rajesh

  • Spend Performance Management - Issues with OPM_SOURCES entries

    Hello,
    We have replicated and activated our datasources after installing them at the ECC side. However, there are no entries created in the OPM_SOURCES table. Is there a manual mean to create those entries. What else can we do to trouble shoot this?
    Also, will the above step be a bottleneck in loading data from the UI?

    Hi there:
    Have you applied any SAP Note to solve your problem? Please check if any of the SAP Notes below is applicable to your system.
    1327125 - "Correction of a DataManagement issue for DataSources"
    1353216 - "Errors occur when configuring datasources"

  • Portal & Spend Performance Mgmt

    Hi Experts,
    I would like to have your advice on our SPM/ Portal approach.
    We have Spend Performance Management in our landscape and I was asked to integrate it with Portal. The URL I was given is
    http://<webdisp_host>:<webdisp_port>/sap/fcprt?app-config=spm
    where 'webdisp' is our Webdispatcher listening at port 8105.
    I read about SPM and understood that SAP provides a business package SSAUI for this purpose.
    My question is should I go ahead with creating URL iview pointing to the above URL/ add it to a custom role and assign it to End Users? OR should we install SSAUI and enable the integration?
    What are the benefits of going with SSAUI? URL iView on the other hand is simpler, doesn't require any installation etc.
    Regards,
    Reshma

    Thanks Michael, I will go ahead and use SSAUI.
    I have a related question.
    Do we need to install Adobe Flash Player on the SAP portal too? Or would it be sufficient that it be installed on the ABAP stack and called by the web dispatcher? Since we would still be launching SPM as a separate application (not hosted on Portal).
    Regards,
    Reshma

  • IC Manager Home page: Quick Links/Free

    I've already gone through the UI Guidelines for CRM WebClient UI document but it's speaking of generic UI introductions. Please help me out.

  • Performance Management ECC5 vs ECC6

    I just saw a demo of the new ECC6 Performance Management.  I believe I heard someone make the statement that we could use the new version of Performance Management on our ECC5 system.  Does anyone know if that is possible?  If yes, any idea how much time and effort it would take to implement the newer version of performance management?

    Hi Raghu,
    So i was wrong about it being portal development, glad I finally figured out how to do it. 
    configuring the "quick criteria maintenance": 
    It can be done by config following this post:  Define default value in POWL Quick Criteria Maintenance for all users
    regarding assessment, it doesn't work for you, b/c you probably haven't done the configuration.  go to talent management and talent development > talent assessment.
    here you wil have to read all the IMG activities, the documentation is decent on how to implement.  Basically with EP4, there are new types of assessment that a manager can do besides just performance, this includes assessing potential, risks, barriers, and development plans.  all of these assessments processes tie into downstream talent management processes such as talent review meetings and succession planning.  hope this helps.

  • MSS Dashboard for Performance Management - PMP vs Flexi-Form

    Hello Experts,
    I have the following problem in Performance Management.
    We have decided to use PMP template for some employees (manager level) and Flexi-form for remaining employees (because we have pre-defined criteria in template that PMP UI is not showing).
    I found that PMP dashboard in MSS is only showing PMP appraisals.
    When manager opens Flex-form UI, it is showing all appraisals that the manager is responsible for (PMP & Flexi) and when the manager clicks on an employee's appraisal document link, it is always displaying the document in Flexi UI mode.
    If a manager is having half of his employees using PMP and other half using Flexi-form, what is the best way for him to look at Dashboard (initial screen to open employee's appraisals), so that for PMP appraisals will open with PMP UI and Flexi appraisals will open with Flexi UI?
    Thanks

  • PDF Error in Performance Management

    Hi
    When launching the Performance Management link from Manager Self Service (Role) --> Talent Management --> Performance Management I am getting the PDF error. Seems the page is trying to open the form in PDF, instead I want it to be displayed in html itself.
    For Travel Expense form I have changed the URL parameter "sap.xss.tra.UsePdf=true" for the resource EMPLOYEE_TRAVEL_TRIPFORM_SRV05.
    What is the PCD Object and the resource key for the corresponding Performance Management iView.
    Thanks,
    Murthy

    Did you get this error in the initial landing page?
    Please detail out the error. And for the pcd location, it depends on the role you created unless you are using standard objects.
    This iview should have a webdynpro application.
