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.

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

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.

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.

Hi Pankaj,
These are the basic steps
1) Determine table and fields you going to load.
2) create file
3) upload file to folder
4) move through steps in user interface.

Hello Experts,

Any Idea what is the Issue? I checked all the Associated Services they are working fine.

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.

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

Could somebody please tell me what SAP PM is all about ? What is it made up of ? Is it made up of old modules grouped together?

Hi
Enterprise performance management (EPM) refers to an integrated management approach that links strategic goals directly to the operational and financial activities necessary to reach those objectives. Comprising of Strategy Management, Profitability and Cost Management, Business Planning, Financial Consolidation, Spend, Supply Chain and other operational performance areas, Enterprise performance management aligns the processes, systems, and metrics needed to measure and manage the performance of an organization.http://forumsa.sdn.sap.com/post!reply.jspa?messageID=8218908

Performance Management Objective Setting

Hi Everyone,
I am working on a full HCM implementation and had a few questions regarding performance management. The client is interested in having goals and objectives "cascade" through org. units and pre-load on Performance Appraisal templates.
In the phap_catalog, I have noticed a value determination named "ORG_OBJECTIVES" and it supposedly auto-fills goals set by managers for the performance review period.
Basically, I am looking for a productive/proper way to have goals flow from the overall organization, through lower level organizational units down to each and every employee.
For example: Company X has 3 overall goals -> Bob Smith works within Org. Unit Y in which there are 3 separate goals that refer to this Org. Unit -> and then Bob Smith has the ability to add 3 of his own goals for the year. Overall there would be 3 overall company goals, 3 org. unit goals (total of 6 that pre-fill) and 3 empty fields for Bob Smith to input his own goals.
Any help would be wonderful. Thank you for your time.

Raghu,
Your response was extremely helpful.
Do you have any documentation or guidance on how I could create custom tables to use this BADI that you are talking about. Currently there is no plan for SEM, so I am going to have to take the route of custom tables utilizing the BADI that you mentioned. In terms of custom tables, creating them and using them, I only have a high level knowledge, so any documentation/guidance would be very helpful.

Performance Manager and Data Gatherer

Hello,
I am looking for some basic info (I think). I have been using the EM Console - standalone for some time now but would like to use the diagnostic pack and Performance Manager. Can this be used in a standalone configuration or do I need to buy Enterprise Manager? If it works in a standalone configuration and I do not need to buy it, could you point me in the direction of documentation on how to start the data gatherer on my 9i database on AIX 5?
Thanks,
Jeff Graham

you have to find the keyword to see...
i suggest you to uninstall businessobjects and install again(else it's very hard to add the performance management program).
while you install, check the install performance management also(you have to have the keyword).

Replacimg performance Manager with SSM(SAP Strategy management)

Hi,
Can any body tell me how to migrate all the scorecards, KPIs based on Performance Manager to SAP Strategy Management. Is there is a tool for that in SSM if not should those be rebuilt in SSM from the scratch.
how do we replicate everything fromPM to SSM
From the developer perspective what will their tasks.
Edited by: chrisbaker1999 on Jun 16, 2011 1:01 PM

Chris,
What the External Data Loader does is to allow you to transfer your scorecard structure from Performance Manager to Strategy Management. What you are importing is the structure of Contexts, Perspectives, Objectives and KPI aspects. It allows you to put all of these in the loader, verify the structure in the loader, and then using Transport to bring into SSM.
There are additional definitions and settings that SSM requires that will have to be added after you Transport the loader's data.
You will still have to build PAS models separately, because the External Data Loader does not build models.
The Transporter tool in SSM allows you to export (and then import) your scorecard metadata from DEV to PROD. Moving between systems is a two-step process, and Transporter is step one. PAS is separate (step two) and you make a dump of the model in your DEV system, take that dump file from the Home directory in DEV and move it to the Home directory in PROD. In the PROD system you create a new PAS model frame and then load that dump into the new framework.
Each SAP customer has a super-administrator that can add users to the SAP Service Marketplace. Find out who your super-admin is and get yourself added to allow you access to those areas on Service Marketplace.
Regards,
Bob

Managers can't see their employees when creating apprisal documents in Performance Management

Hi All,
I'm looking for you experts to enlighten me regarding an issue with the SAP Performance Management solution. We have recently (2013) implemented the Performance Management solution and everything has worked as expected. Now, we are in the process where the managers create the employees appraisal documents for the evaluation of the year 2013. The issue we are encountering is that managers who have been transfer to a new organizational unit are not able to see the employees which they supervised before the transfer.
Currently our company has an structural profile which is assigned to all the managers and supervisors, and this profile gives access to the employees which are assign to the manager or supervisor. In addition we have an MSS role for managers and supervisors, and here we added the authorization object P_HAP_DOC to authorize manager to perform the PM process.
Why the managers/supervisors who have been transfer are not able to see their employees?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Santhiel Ramos

Thank you for your response,
Yes, as the manager (appraiser) I have created the document in documents_todo.htm.
I went to t-code phap_admin_pa and the document exists. The manager's name and employee's name are listed and the status is listed as In Process.
When I use t-code phap_start_bsp, then documents_received_open2.htm and log in as the employee, there are no documents listed.
I am not sure what is missing Any more ideas?
