Status of a PPM

Hi,
         These are few questions about PPMs:
1. If I have 5 PPDS PPMs for a product and location, can they all be status "blank" ?
2. I am assuming 1 to be active and blank to be inactive. am I right?
3. Can you have all 5 with status blank?
4. Are these still considered in planning?
5. How is this status set in PPM? is it during CIF or manually set?
What is the corresponding parameter in R/3 for the status?
Is this the BOM status?
6. I also see status 0- what is this?
Thanks.

Dear Visu,
Folowing is my Understanding:
1. If I have 5 PPDS PPMs for a product and location, can they all be status "blank" ?
   I am not sure about status "Blank" Either it should be 1 or 0.
2. I am assuming 1 to be active and blank to be inactive. am I right?
    1= Active, 0 = Inactive
3. Can you have all 5 with status blank?
    You can have five inactive PPMs.
4. Are these still considered in planning?
    Nope......
5. How is this status set in PPM? is it during CIF or manually set?
    Through CIF status will be set automatically if your PV is correct.
6. What is the corresponding parameter in R/3 for the status?
    In R/3 If BOM & recipies are correct & consistent then after your PV creation you can do consistency check for PV & after saving itt system will activate the PV.
8. I also see status 0- what is this?
    0 is Inactive status.
Hope it will help You.
Regards,
Hardik

    Hi Experts,
    Can the default settings of number of days in  Progress Status  be set globally?
    Path to Progress Status Settings:
    PPM --> Target to Date --> More --> Options

  • PPM with no status in APO

    Hello,
    I've have a material that is correctly maintained in R/3, with the routing, bom and production version. When I activate the integration model for it, the PPM is created in APO but with no active status!
    I can activate it directly in APO, but the problem is that we have many materials with no status and we can't find the reason why.
    Thanks for your help,
    Miguel

    Do you get any messages in the Application Log on the APO server (slg1) for the object CIF? Hopefully there may be some more clues there.

  • PPM 5.0: Assign cProjects New Status to Project Mngt business transaction?

    hello Experts,
    In SPRO -> Project Management -> Basic settings -> Create/Change Status Profile for User Status, I created my own status profile and assigned them to object types.
    Now, for status synchronisation, i need to map Project / Initiative Business Transaction to DFM Business Transaction
    ( SPRO -> Portfolio and Project Management -> Portfolio Management ->Base System Interfaces -> Decision Flow Management Settings -> Status Synchronization -> Map Project / Initiative Business Transaction to DFM Business Transaction)
    My question is : 
    How can I create my own Project Management business transactions?
    if is not possible, how can i assign the standard ones (DX01, DX02, etc) to my own status (ZST1, ZST2, etc) ?
    Thank you in advance,
    Amal

    Hello,
    Check the trasnaction BS32 for adding new business transactions.

  • How to configure workflow for status change of a salesorder.

    Dear Friends,
    I want to generate Idocs after a sales Order delivery  status changes
    using workflow.
    Please tell me the procedure ,as i am doing this for the first time.
    thanks,
    jeevan.

    Suggest using "Modes" in PPM. Mode 01 will have "x" capacity, mode 02 will have "y" capacity and so on. You will have to give a slightly different resource name for each mode. E.g, If there is a multi capacity resource named "RESOURCE", then first create following resources in the Resource master : RESOURCE_X and RESOURCE_Y. Define individual capacities ( Resource is same, only we are separating capacities). Then include these in the PPM -  mode 01 = RESOURCE_X, mode 02 = RESOURCE_Y.

  • Status Sync between Portfolio Item and Initiative doesn't work!!

    Hi,
       Does any body have a procedure to synchronize the status between Portfolio Item and Initiative.
    i have done all the configurations, but still sync Item -->initiative not happening but working fine with in Reverse direction Initiative --> item.
    My requirement is to have status Sync from Item to Initiative.
    You can take an Example: REL from Item --> Initiative and send it across.
    correct answer will definately get rewarded...

  • PPM - Object Links

    Hi All,
    The possible mapping for the scenario mentioned below?
    1)     Create Portfolio
    2)     Create Bucket Structure for the Portfolio
    3)     Assign three Initiatives EX. IN1, IN2, IN3.
    4)     Create One Item for each Initiative IT1, IT2, IT3.
    5)     No Auto PS Project has to be created for this.
    6)     Create a PS Project manually with three top WBS Elements with subordinates and linking those WBS Elements
                         each to IT1-W1, IT2-W2, IT3-W3.  (By std we can only assign one project definition to the portfolio Item). I
                         assigned this through Object Links
    7)     Now the dates, status and Planned/Actual Costs/Budgets should transfer to Portfolio items and also dates/status
                         should also get synchronized between WBS Elements and Items.
    How this scenario will be possible. Is there a possiblity to synchronize the dates/status of Object linked WBS element to portfolio Item?
    PS: I can create only on PS Project because of Synergy planning.
    Rgds
    Rambo

    Hi John,
    valid questions.
    re 1 (using 'object links' without DFM): I would think that you need to develop the attribute synchronization more or less from scratch in that case. We have done this for other customers before (e.g. in 4.5 when the DFM functionality was not availble for PS yet). Depending on the exact requirements, the effort can become quite significant.
    re 2 (object synchronization structure): this customizing is only relevant when you use DFM. And even then I would rather not change anything there. Basically the customizing activity allows you to use different input/output structure for DFM (that might be interesting when you connect multiple ERP systems with different releases to PPM through DFM). BUt so far I had never the need to change the structures.
    I hope this helps you at least a bit (even though it is not a straightforward answer).
    Best regards

  • Synching of Item and Project definition status

    Hi There
    Currently, I would like to know 2 things as below. (Using PPM 5.0)
    1) Project Definition status to 'On Hold' and synch to item (Decision point status) to set 'on hold'(created in SPRO -> Proftfolio Management).
       - Is this possible? I am not able to find the on hold in the drop down or the standard DFM
    2) Existing project definition status can be set to Lock or unlock. Can this be synch to the item (Decision point status) to
    on hold  or project in progress status (created in SPRO -> Proftfolio Management). Do we need to set in the DFM.
    If there is any clarification required, please let me know.
    Thanks.
    Kannan

    Hi Lashan.
    I have done the testing with the recommended steps provided it is working fine. However, now I am trying to do from portfolio Item to project management. So if the project is set to project on hold, the project definition need to change to Lock.
    Change statue to on hold at item.
    Project definition. It didn't change.
    Configuration  as below.
    1) Map Business Transaction for Synchronisation.
    2) Map portfolio Management Status to DFM business Transaction.
    3) Map DFM Business Transaction to Portfolio Management Status.
    Is there anything else I missed. Hope you can shine some light on my configuration. Thanks.

  • How can we integrate CATS & PPM and to retrieve CATS time recording data in PPM ?

    Dear experts,
    Following the previous question of Ruxandra Petrina called "record times with CATS", I am facing an issue with the report DPR_CATS_CPR_TRANSF : it shows nothing despite I activated PPM accounting integration.
    There are the steps I followed, I really don't understand what is missing. In PPM I can transfer and assign my projects to WBS elements automatically or manually.
    1. We allowed time confirmation for projects
    2. We replicated personal number as business partners
    3. We activated worklists and project assignments @ data entry profiles
    4. We set up ALE & RFC connections
    5. We activated the integration scenarios on WBS element : automatic and  manual creation of WBS element assigned to PPM elements. Then we set up data profiles for time recording in cat2.
    6. We enter times, we released it (approval is not required) + saving
    7; We launch the program in SE38 of both ERP or SOLMAN systems : NOTHING appears.
    Our goal is to see the times recorded in CATS in the Confirmed work field of PPM.
    Can you please help me out with this issue ?
    Many thanks in advance.
    Best,
    Cassoké

    Hi Cassoke,
    If tasks assigned to a user is not listed in CAT2 worklist, then first we need to ensure that the tasks are displayed in the worklist. So the user confirm the times for the tasks using this list and after that only we should be running the report 'DPR_CATS_CPR_TRANF' to transfer the actual times entered by user in CAT2 to PPM project task.
    To integrate CATS with PPM, you need to follow these steps.
    Customisations:
    1) Enable 'Time recording' for tasks & 'Account integration' in project type
    2) Customisation related to 'Accounting integration' to be carried out (either single object / Hierarchical controlling, for testing better to use single object - Internal order, since it is easier)
    3) Create a time sheet data entry profile
    (Refer thread Record working times with CATS for details)
    4) Ensure all object links(internal order / WBS)  RFC destinations are updated correctly.
    Master data:
    Business partners creation with BUP003-Employee role & link to HR personnel number
    (This is not required if HR integration is activated, since the system creates the BP's automatically. But manually we need to validate the BP's for linkage with few users)
    Project:
    1) Create project using customised project type (where time recording/accounting integration is enabled)
    2) Structure the project with phase/tasks
    3) Update duration/work etc., to the tasks
    3) Create project roles & staff a resource (BP which is validated for HR personnel number linkage).
    4) Assign task to project role with resource in Project role-->task tab
    6) Release the project definition and also check for phase/tasks release
    7) Change the status of project definition to 'Flag for transfer' (Can be done before project release also)
    8) Check whether the internal order / PS project with WBS is created in ERP system(Based on customisation) and linked to project. Check can be made in accounting tab of the project. (If it is not created, then check for object link RFC destination correctness)
    In case of automatic internal order creation process, you need to enter the org unit. data in project definition-->additional data of the project.
    CATS:
    After completing all the steps, the task assigned to the user will appear in the CAT2 transaction.
    1) User can confirm the task with actual hours.
    2) Run the CATS transfer report mentioned above to update the data in PPM project.
    About SOLMAN integration, you can refer to this presentation also.

  • PPM 5.0 Administration

    Hi Experts
    We recently upgraded to PPM 5.0 on Netweaver Business Client
    The problem i face is with Project and Portfolio Administration.
    I have an existing Initiative template but I cannot create a new Initiative template.
    If i try to create an Initiative template, i select the bucket, Initiative type and click on start.
    I receive error :
    You cannot create Phase for Project Template
    Status of Project Template does not permit you to change the structure
    An error occurred in the creation of the application object
    "Change attributes" is not allowed (Project Template )
    "Change attributes" is not allowed (4E11520AC08211E0E1008000C0A803A2 )
    Please could you guys help.
    Second problem is that if i am in a project Template (cProject/Item)
    And click on 'Resources' Tab, i get a dump  :
    " Line types of an internal table and a work area not compatible."
    OBJECTS_WA_NOT_COMPATIBLE
    If i am in a normal cProject and click on the Resources Tab, it opens with no problem.
    Can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong
    Is there config that i am missing ?
    It seems that something is not correct with the Portfolio & Project Administration.
    Edited by: Ihsaan Mayet on Jul 5, 2011 1:42 PM

    Hi
    The cause of the problem is due to incorrect setting of status object
    'IX1' (Initiatives: Project Template), which does not have a initial
    status, so that the program failed to find out, if the object can be
    changed or not from status point of view.
    Please carry out the following steps to correct it.
    1. RUN transaction BS12
    2. Scroll down the page, till you find the record 'IX1', put the cursor
    on it.
    3. Menu 'Goto' -> 'Status control'
    4. Scroll to the system status 'I1700 CRTE Created', set the flag
    'Ini'. Save it.
    Please check the setting in other systems, if it is needed, please
    transport the change to the involved systems.
    Please let me know if this solves your problem of the initiative template creation.
    for the resources on the project template, please implement SAP Note :      1550571

  • PPDS PPM is deactivated

    Dear Experts,
    As we know whenever we put to (lock for any usage) a Production Version in R/3 this change is logged in table CIF_PPM_CHANGED which is then picked up by program RSPPMCHG. After running program RSPPMCHG the PPDS PPM in APO in return gets inactive and the description is changed to: Plan Invalid (Prod.Vers. Deleted in R/3).
    The problem is our PPDS PPM is in inactive status and has a description: Plan Invalid (Prod.Vers. Deleted in R/3).
    The change in PPM is dated 6/20/2011 in APO.
    We already checked MM04 to display any changes for the material and the last change was dated 4/20/2011 for C223.
    There is no change from 6/20/2011.
    How come the PPDS PPM in APO gets inactive if there is no changes in the Production Version in R/3? Is there any other way to deactivate the PPM aside from running program RSPPMCHG? is there a log in APO to see the changes made in the PPM?
    Hope anyone can help me.
    Thanks and best regards,
    Marcus

    Hi Nandha,
    The Production Version is Not locked in C223.
    I checked MM04 just now and the last change I see is dated 4/20/2011.
    But in the PPM the change happened on 6/20/2011 and is now still Inactive.
    We have a batch job running RSPPMCHG everyday.
    Thanks,
    Marcus

  • When all Task's are completed also complete the Phase (PPM 5.0)

    Dear gurus;
    I need to know if the Project Phase can completed automaticaly, when all phase  task's are completed.
    Someone did this in PPM 5.0?
    *Project Definition
    Project Phase
    Task 1
    Task 2
    Task 3
    Best regards,
    Mariano.

    Hello Mariano Sabiche,
    I have done this in previous versions but I don't think there is any difference in PPM 5.0 in this functionality. This can be achieved by implementing automated workflows by using the triggering events or status change actions.
    So depending on the details of your scenario:
    1. You may trigger this automated workflow upon the status change of the last task in the phase.
    2. You may use "relationships" between various tasks and look for the last task to be executed and then trigger the workflow.
    Hope this helps.
    Please let me know if you need any further details.
    regards

  • PPM not available

    Hi all,
    I have one ppm not visible in APO. The mtrl/location/resources are cifed and ppm object is selected. But in APO the ppm isn't visible.Any idea why?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Few of the basic reasons for non formation of PPM are :
    a) Filter criterion of IM throwing out the products as XO status, plant specific status,production version etc. Kindly check the filter conditions in IM and see if on executing the cfm1 for this product are you getting the PPM in IMOD.
    b) Other reason refers to routing  not throughout the production version. Kindly check the validity of routing.
    c) BOM status needs to be active i,e 1
    d) workcenter needs to be in active integration model. Kindly check in CFM5 transaction and see if workcenter exists in APO.
    Moreover you can check all these things by making a seperate IMOd for the affected code only.
    Hope these checks should suffice the requirements...
    Warm regards
    Gaurav
