Status & Tracking system History

Hello Everybody,
I have a special situation here. I need to show my clients my Status and Tracking system history. Let me give u a mudane example,
A cost center account undergoes twice budget changes both the times with the 'accepted' status. I should show the client in a report when and what amount has this account undergone during the two budget changes like this
Account   Changed on     Changed amount   Approved by              Requested by
23423       14.05.2007          100000           Thomas Escher          Wolf schere
23423       13.06.2007          120000          Thomas Escher          Wolf schere
My question,
Do status & tracking system hzas table where i can get this information. !?
If not do you have any other approach on mind for this issue!?
Any idea is highly appreciated,
Regards & many thanks indeed,
Karthik

STS data is contained in tables starting 'UPS'.
However, the STS history is not going to show which accounts changed, by whom, I think. It can show the status change history by user for a planned unit. (Click the 'Present status' link in the STS. )
If you want to see which user changed particular values you would have to set the BPS model to record the user id and date/time; it could generate very large amounts of data.

Status tracking system

Hello
We have a Status tracking system. I want to find out what are the tables which are being used for this STS in the backend..can somone suggest me how should i proceed.

Dear graeme brannen ,
STS Definition
The BW-BPS Status and Tracking System helps you to monitor the progress of the different planning tasks within your company. The system keeps a record of the iterations which run through a specific planning task in practice (requirement notification bottom-up, resource assignment top-down) and brings together the planning objects created in the planning environment with the employees who use these objects to process the actual planning tasks.
You could get more information ON STS here

Status Tracking system Hierarchy Maintenance.

In BPS status tracking system, is it mandatory to have a topmost node of the organisational Structure node to be text node?
for example : If I have a structure like Head Office-> Regional Sales Manager--> Area Sales Manager, then do I need to have a text node above Head office with some heading?

Santosh ,
its necessary that you have it as text node.
but not very sure why you would want it to be other than text.

Status Tracking System and IP

Hi,
If one is to implement a brand new planning system using IP (no existing STS), what is the recommended strategy on status tracking?
Thanks,
William Lee

Hello William,
you can also use the old STS from BW 3.5 for integrated planning. But as far as I know there won't be any further progress in this area. SAP is just developing (in cooperation with DSAG) a new STS as replacement. So if you can wait, you should use the new one if it's comming in time

BPS Status & Tracking System customizing

Hi X-perts.
Using the STS tool, is it possible to make customizations that allow to switch the status of a user after the data approving of an other user, in an automated way?
I mean, I've 2 user: user_A and user_B. If a generic process administrator pushes the button "approve" for user_A, is it possible ,only with this action, to "set for processing" user_B? In this way the approval of user_A datas determines the "set for processing" for user_B (without pushing the button "Set for processing" for user_B).
I hope the problem is clear.
Thanx a lot to all.
Regards, Luca.

Hi Luca,
in general the answer is no. The only way user_a can influence the status of user_b is to use the cascading status switch (if they are in the same hierarchy branch).

X-man

Status & Tracking system Question.

Hello Everybody,
Is it possible to by-pass a hierachial node during the planning process?. I mean
there are three levels in my hierarchy
level1 -- Person A responsible
level2 -- Person B responsible
level3 -- Person C responsible
When Person C enters a amount more than than 1 million Euro in his planning layout. Then the person B should be by-passed (here I mean that person B should not receive any email notifications). For all other amount less than 1 million Euro the normal STS hierarchy procedure should work.
My question:
Is it possible with STS only using one hierarchy!?
Any approach or idea would be highly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Karthik Krishna

Hi Karthik,
no, STS does not have this capability.
Regards,
Marc
SAP NetWeaver RIG
PS: I wonder why Person B should not be notified in such a case.

Status & Tracking System: Link responsible person-hierarchy node

Hi experts!
Where does SAP store the link between hierarchy nodes, responsible persons and web layouts for STS? In the relevant tables for STS starting with UPS* you find only an orgvalue, which seems to be some kind of hash key, which is only used in tables which don't provide the necessary information (resp person and so on).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thx Michael

Santosh ,
its necessary that you have it as text node.
but not very sure why you would want it to be other than text.

Present Status button is unusable in Status and Tracking System

Hi everybody:
In Status and Tracking System the Present Status is unusable. It involved set for processing ,send for approval and retrieve . They are all unusable. They are not locked, but are gray !
why ??
thanks!

What sort of user is this for? If a Super user, press the Edit button first.
If another user, or this action does not enable the buttons, probably another user is blocking. Click on the 'status' link to check.

Changing Look and Feel - BPS status and tracking system

HI,
I 'd like to know if there is a way to customize the web page that appears when you launch the transaction BPS_STS_START (Starts BPS Status and Tracking System). I believe that it's an automatically generated page, that takes from somewhere an html template. Is there a way to change that html template?
For example, how could I insert a logo, insert titles, change fonts, etc.
I 'll appreciate if somebody send me some related documentation.
Thanks in advance.
Cristian.

Hi Christian,
the STS is a BSP-Application(have a look at TA SE80).
You can copy this BSP to your own customer-namespace(YTUNGUSKA) and you can change all pages and views you would like. You can integrate other stylesheets, logos or you can modify the logic of events triggered by buttons and so on. Please note: If you copy the TUNGUSKA you cannot use anymore the TA BPS_STS_START cause it only will start the BSP TUNKUSKA(its hardcoded), build up your own transaction.
Hope it helps

Session Out Error in Status and Tracking System (BPS) Execution

Hi,
I am getting the Session timed out error in Status and Tracking System (Open Planning). The reason I found is:
In STS (Configuratioin) the web link that I have added is valid for one time. Meaning that ever time I visit Web Interface Builder (Execution), it is generating a different web link. Therefore, it is only valid for a single time.
Is there any way, that I can make the web string that is generated every time I visit Web Interface Builder (Execution) for a particular report, so that I can use that web link in the configuration of STS (Open Planning). In this case the web link every time that generated is dynamic.
But, this is not the case with Open Report. I prepared a query and attached the web link of the query into (Open Report). The number of times even if I open the report, there is no issue as the web link is static.
Any inputs on this will be appreciated.
Regards,
Ravi

Hi,
This has been solved.
In STS Configuration the web link (URL) that is to be inserted is not the web link that has dynamically generated. However, it is the web link (URL) on the Web Interface Builder (WIB) - Property - URL BSP Application.
If you use this URL in the STS (Open Report), this will ask the User for User ID and Password to reach that Web Planning Layout and a dynamic code will then be generated. Every time, user visits it generates new dynamic URL.
Anyway, Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ravi

Status and Tracking System and JAVA AS

Hello!
Is it possible to run STS (Status and Tracking System) and BW-BPS without JAVA AS?
Regards
Alex

Will it work not in 3.5 but in NW2004s?
I'll try to clear situation: we are upgrading SEM 3.1B to NW2004s BI
It worked in 3.1 but now get errors:
Diagnosis
The system was not configured for SAP logon tickets:
At least one of the two parameters login/create_sso2_ticket and login/accept_sso2_ticket currently has the value 0.
System Response
It is not possible to use SAP logon tickets.
Therefore, there is also no single sign-on support when using SAPGUI HTML Control and calling local ICF services (see SAP note 612670).
It looks like integration between JAVA and ABAP.
That's why I want to know - should I try to solve this problem without JAVA ot it's impossible?
I saw similar problem in another message (Status and Tracking System and JAVA AS), but it's still not answered
Best Regards
Alexey

Submanager of area : Planning TOO.
Thank you ... This is important info and get some images the last version in STS working in web mode, for my client buy the product.

Hi Bala ,
Yes you can use the STS for BI IP also and you need to configure the Planning level and sub plan area and follow the steps to set up STS.
STS still has BPS flavour and can be used in IP.
Hope this helps

Status and Tracking System Authorization Objects

Hello,
I'm having questions on how to create roles for users to access the Status and Tracking System.
I've assigned the following Authorization Objects to my user
R_STS_PT
Activity: 16 Execute
Subplan: *
Planning sequence: *
R_STS_CUST
Activity: 16 Execute
R_STS_SUP
Activity: 16 Execute
And still when i try to execute STS (T-Code: BPS_STS_START) or Customize (T-Code: BPS_TC) i get an error saying "Without Authorization for the transaction BPS_STS_START" and "Without Authorization for the transaction BPS_TC"!
Can anyone help me, please! Waht am i missing?
Thanks

Hello Stephen
Thank you very much for the help.
Still i have some other questions that you or someone can help me.
By now, my Planning Coordinator can already access to BPS_TC, and my Planning Responsible access to BPS_STS_START.
The "normal" users must onle have the Authorization Object R_STS_PT.
I still have this issue that i'm not getting at.
I have created a user where i've assigned total access to Execute STS and Customizing.
Assigned the 2 transactions BPS_TC and BPS_STS_START and gave them the Auth. Objects R_STS_SUP and R_STS_CUST.
Issue: When my user tries to "Define Subplan" and "Define Planning Session" i get this error:
"No maintenance authorization for requested data
Message no. SV052
Diagnosis
You have attempted, in change mode, to access data for which you have no authorization."
Can anyone help me on this please.
Thanks
