Transports in SCM

Hi,
When we transport the development in DP dev box to QA, what objects can be transported from Dev to QA and what needs to be recreated in QA? To my knowledge, we can transport POS, PA and planning books. What about the rest like forecast profiles, selections, alert profiles etc.. Is there a place where we can collect all objects and assign them to a transport?
Any links are very appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi, Somnath,
Actually, I want only specific forecast profiles to be transported. When I transported the jobs which contained these forecast profiles, the jobs and the activities got transported, while the Forecast Profiled didnt.
The trnxn you said is to transport the entire planning area, and all the forecast profiles associated with that planning area, which actually is not the requirement in my case...
So, the question now briefs out to: How to transport specific forecast profiles? Or else, would they need to be created in the subsequent system?
Thank you very much for your reply....

Gurucharan.

Shipping date in SCM for manual ASN

Hi Team,
We are creating Manual ASN and transporting to SCM through IDOC. We have two scenario's 1) With reference(SA) 2) Without reference.
For with reference we are getting shipping date in SCM based on Scheduling, but for ASN without reference we are not getting shipping date in SCM.
Delivery type - HID - Inbound delivery HU mvmt
Can you please let me know why shipping date not getting filled in SCM.
Thanks,
Venkadesh

Hi Claire Yang,
Thanks for your response.
I forget to update the issue status, it's resolved.
The reason was that, one of a BAPI date parameter(WADAT) got cleared in one enhancement.
I made the changes so now its working properly.
Seems this is not going to helpful for others, so i will delete this thread.

Datasource transport in BI 7.0 in SCM 5.0 fails

System Specification - SCM 5.0 with BI 7.0 SP10.
Is there a way to transport a new datasource created from a planning area from Dev -> QA. Right now I have tried many times to transport datasources and all of them have failed. In the past we had to either open the system or use a User with SAP_ALL and manually activate these datasources and then transport the remaining objects DTP's, TRNFMs etc.
Any other way to activate datasources, other then manual method.
Thanks,

Hi Satish,
You want to transport transformations. This transformation can be between datasrc and the infocube or any such 2 objects.
The target system where you want to transport this should have these 2 objects. They must be active in the target system.
If not then the request which you will transport should also have these 2 activated objects along with the transformation.
hope it helps...

SCAL - Calendar Transport R/3 to SCM

Hi,
On APO 3.0 in the past we created cross-system transports from our 4.6c R/3 system in SCAL to keep APO and R/3 calendars in synch.
Since upgrading to APO 4.1 which is on Basis 6.40 we are not sure if its safe to transport SCAL from R/3 4.6C to APO 4.1 which is on 6.40.
Is anyone doing this or do you manually maintain SCAL in both SCM 4.1 and R/3 4.6c?
Thanks in advance.

We have tried to configure this in our SCM development systems for both F&R and EWM but have hit a couple of snags...
We have the following system/client structures for the F&R SCM system:
Development                    Quality Assur.                  Production
DF0 260 (Golden)                 QF0 360                              PF0 960
DF0 261 (Unit Test)
DF0 262 (Perf. Test)
And for BI we have:
DB0 120                                QB0 220                             PB0 920
For the QA and Production instances, we do not have an issue, since the limitation of having only one BI client per system doesn't matter as we only have one client to connect.
But for the Development systems, currently it is the DF0 261 client that is connected to the DB0 120 BI client. We want to be able to pull the data from our ECC golden client (DE2 700) into each of the DF0 clients. But when we try and run RSA1 in any other client than 261, we get an error telling us that only one client can connect to BI and we must work in that client.
I thought we could maybe get around it by simply running RSIMPCUST in a batch job, but cannot see how to save a variant with the source client name in it since this is always greyed out when you run it online. I guess if I maintain the BI system as the default client for each of these F&R systems in SCC4 it might work, but I don't know what else uses this default client value?
Does anyone know of any workarounds for this? It would be really nice to be able to synchronize all systems (especially as the link is between two non-BI systems, so the BI restriction should not even apply). If we have to go back to the current approach of manually updating the development systems for any changes in ECC then we may as well use that for all clients and just transport the changes. It is not a good solution though...
Thanks,
Luke

Transport of Global Parameters from ECC to SCM

We have tried to set up RSA1 in our SCM development systems for both F&R and EWM to allow us to transfer calendars, UOMs etc from ECC to these systems but have hit a couple of snags...

there is some explanation to what you have mentioned in Re: Factory Calendar
this talks about calendars and is relevant till SCM 4.x
I would imagine the situation would be the same for UOM
In SCM 5 you have the option to update the tables, Rebuild the tables and also a simulation option

Crystal Reports transport files for SAP APO / SCM

Hi there,
Problem: we want to use Crystal Reports on top of SAP APO / SCM and have some difficulties getting the definitions of BW / OLAP servers right and don't know which transports to import on the SAP to report with Crystal.
System is a SAP SCM system with APO module. There is a cube in this module (because there is some internal BW system) and I can see the cube in Crystal Reports. When I want to report from this cube I get an error:
"/CRYSTAL/MDX_GET_STREAM_INFO" not found.
This means some transport files were not imported and some functions are missing.
The following transports are missing:
====quote from transports_EN.txt included in transports for Crystal Reports=====
The following files must be used on an SAP BW system:
(These files are Unicode enabled.)
Content Administration transport (K900579.r21 and R900579.r21)
Personalization transport (K900580.r21 and R900580.r21)
MDX Query Connectivity transport (K900581.r21 and R900581.r21)
ODS Connectivity transport (K900582.r21 and R900582.r21)
===========================================================
My SAP BASIS expert refuses to import these transports in SAP SCM, because he thinks it is not an SAP BW system as listed in the above transports_EN.txt file. Just trying is not an option because transports cannot be removed once imported...
In my opinion these transports have to be imported to clearly access the cube and will work on SAP SCM even if it's not a 'dedicated' SAP BW environment. In other words, these transports should be imported and will work on SAP OLAP servers like SAP BW, SAP SCM, SAP SRM (APO) or SAP SEM.
Does anyone of you have some more experience on reporting from SAP SCM / APO cubes and if I can import these transports without getting some nasty errors, because its not an SAP BW system?
Kind regards!
Edited by: J. van de Mheen on Mar 3, 2009 4:21 PM

Thanks for your reply, but this is not helping me much.
Let me explain more.
In the transport_EN.txt file we see this:
If your SAP system is running on a 6.20 *BASIS system* or later, you must use the files listed below:
(These files are Unicode enabled.)
* Open SQL Connectivity transport (K900574.r21 and R900574.r21)
* Info Set Connectivity transport (K900575.r21 and R900575.r21)
* Row-level Security Definition transport (K900576.r21 and R900576.r21)
* Cluster Definition transport (K900585.r21 and R900585.r21)
* Authentication Helpers transport (K900578.r21 and R900578.r21)
The following files must be used on an *SAP BW system*:
(These files are Unicode enabled.)
* Content Administration transport (K900579.r21 and R900579.r21)
* Personalization transport (K900580.r21 and R900580.r21)
* MDX Query Connectivity transport (K900581.r21 and R900581.r21)
* ODS Connectivity transport (K900582.r21 and R900582.r21)
So I have to import 5 transports in SAP BASIS system and 4 transports in SAP BW system to make full use of the integration kit.
SAP SCM / APO is basically a BASIS system, so the BASIS expert says only those 5 transport have to be installed.
But SAP SCM / APO is also having some reporting capabilities and stores data in OLAP cubes (Infocubes).
In Crystal I can see these cubes when using SAP BW MDX connection.
To make the error go away, I must have some function modules used in transport 'MDX Query Connectivity transport. But the BASIS expert doesn't want to import this transport, because it is listed as a transport for a SAP BW system and he says SAP SCM / APO is NOT a SAP BW system (it's a BASIS system).
And now I have to get some proof that this transport has to be imported in the SAP SCM / APO BASIS system before he installs it...

Ideas for SCM/APO in iPhone/Blackberry/Android

Hi everybody!
I would like to know your personal needs currently that could be solved by an mobile application.
This application would be connected to a R/3 or APO backend system.
What scenarios you can think of that could be very helpful to you?
Examples:
- See the list of Sales Orders for a product.
- Open Pur. Order n. X to get vendor information.
- Check Stock information for a product.
What can you think of?
Points to be awarded to everybody that answers!
Thank you!
Will

Hi Will,
Would (lets) assume iPhone folks need some info only on how good a business is APO making.. So my take would be more on
-Some measure of expected lost sales. may be some macro in DP/SNP. some limited dimensions of customers - products - time to be fixed. This would be approximate
-Some measure of Average cost of transportation/overruns. Assuming business was expecting deployment and load building to save on average shipping costs. This can again be with some macro.. but seems quite complicated to me. As actual shipments and freight costs would need to obtained from ECC.
-Some compsite mesaure of service level by some dimesions of customer product time.
-Demand Plan over runs.. excess inventory reports.. over decided base.
etc.. I think this poll would make best sense if you ask some SCM heads of some leading firms across industry verticals. Clearly totally different things are important to different firms. Coca firms are most interested in retail metics, steel makers would be more interested in how well PPDS is loading he resources and such.

SPP Error - No valid transportation lane between Supplier and LOC1

Hi
While running the EOQ and SFT planning service, we get the following error
"No valid transportation lane between Supplier and LOC1". LOC1 is the entry location for our BOD.
We have not created any procurement relationships as we are working on a standalone SCM trialbox.
Appreciate any help/suggestions to resolve this issue.
Thanks & Best Regds
Mitesh

Hi Mitesh,
You need to have valid transportation lanes from the supplier. Maintain it manually. If I remember correctly it is possible to have External Procurement Relationships in APO only (type 4) and not just contracts, purchasing inforecords or scheduling agreements CIFed from ECC.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Somnath

Purchase Requisition Transfers from SCM 5.0 APO to R/3

I am working on SCM 5.0 -- transferring Purchase Requisitions from APO to R/3 from SNP heurristic run. I am wondering if there is any documented procedure of available options and the steps involved in setting up.
Can you transfer only certain Purchase Requisitions instead of ALL?
Can you setup approval workflow to allow the transfer of only approved PRs ?
What steps involved to get PRs from the SNP Heuristic?
I found the IMG Activity (SAP SCM Implementation Guide  Advanced Planning and Optimization  Supply Chain Planning  Supply Network Planning (SNP)  Basic Settings  Configure Transfer to OLTP system).
I shall greatly apprecaite if some one answers the questions and points me to some 'How to Guide or the steps involved in setting up'.
Thanks

Devendra,
You actually need the SCM-APO-CIF (Core Interface) Training for this. A Pre-requisite to that is the APO Overview. Have you undergone it ?
In Short i will tell you the answers you want ... I hope you will reward me with Points if you feel it was helpful.
To Transfer PRs from APO to R3 following setup is needed ..
- Do Configuration of STO (Stock Transfer) in R3. Ensure Stock Transfer PRs and STOs between the 2 Plants can be created Manually in R3. This will require you to do a Lot of MM & SD Configuration on IntraCompany STOs.
A Key Part for APO is to set the STO Order Types for the
Source and Destination Plant, Assign Vendor to the Shipping Plant, Customer to the Destination Plant .. etc. A Test of correct setup is your ability to create a PR and STO manually in R3 first before you do APO.
- Setup of all APO Locations (Plants in SAP-R3), Products (Materials in SAP-R3). These are done via the Location and Product Integration Models. Make sure you have defined the Timezone in the Plant and set the Plant in SAP as DC or Production Plant (Refer CIF Training).
- Setup of Transport Lanes in APO (done manually in APO).
You define Transport Durations here.
- You have to have the Purchase Requisition Integration Model Active for those Product Locations. To do the Integration Model all CIF Configuration including the one IMG you have described in your Question is to be done. Assuming that the Products are set to 'X0' MRP Type in R3 ... so they are set to Planning in APO.
- For Setup in "Configure Transfer to OLTP" it is best to select 'Periodic Transfer' so you can actually control the Product-Locations and Date Range of PRs APO has created. The Planning Runs create 'Change Pointers' to send the PRs to R3.
- Define in APO that you will be sending Purchase Requisitions at your Destination Location to R3. You use 'Publish Change Pointers' - /sapapo/cp1 to do this.
- The Change Pointers are created after APO Planning run which can be sent to R3 using /sapapo/c5. You should send them periodically after you're satisfied with the planning results or in Night Batch runs after your Planning run.
- To Control some type of PRs you will have to use User Exits in APO for CIF that send External Procurement / PRs from APO to R3. This is not Standard. But I am not sure why you will have different types of PRs for Stock Transfer between 2 Plants. There is no need. You can control PRs between 2 Locations to not go to R3, via the selection of locations in /sapapo/c5.
Hope you find this usefull.

Error comming while transportation of BW realted request

Hi All,
Currently i am working on SCM 5.0 Server
      I have created all the data flow process i.e Data Source,Info Package,Info Source,Info Area,Info Cube,Transformation & data Transfer Process for DP Planning Area for taking backup of data in Client 221 i.e DC1.
While creating the all above configuration sysytem asked for Request,so we created request which we want to transport in Client 421 i.e quality server QC1.
   Then we have transported all above request to QC1 421.But when i am looking for all the data flow process in QC1.System having only Data Source,Info Source,Info cube & transformation.But there is no Info Pakage & DTP.When i double click the Data Source System shows Error "Source system DC1CLNT221 does not exist".Only Info Cube & info Source are in active mode & other are in Inactive mode.

Hi Sujay,
You are to maintain the conversion of source system name after transport in QC1 421 before transport your request.
Ts RSLGMP or in customising under BIW/Trasport Settings/Change source system name after transport.

Automatic Creation of multiple Transportation Lanes

Hi all.
Is it possible to avoid following standard behaviour:
Change of Supplying Plant in the Special Procurement Type
If you have changed the supplying plant in the special procurement type in the ERP system, the SCM system creates a new transportation lane for the new combination of supplying plant (from special procurement type) and material/plant. The already existing transportation lane and the now invalid combination of supplying plant and plant in the ERP system is locked for orders in the SAP APO system. This can be seen from the lock indicator X that is set by the system.
Automatic Creation of Transportation Lanes - Transportation Lane - SAP Library
Our need for some SKU is to create automatically two T-Lanes. Considering user exit EXIT_SAPLCMAT_001, we added a new line on CT_CIF_MATLOC (and relative CT_CIF_MATLOCX) with different SUPPLPLANT, but the system obviously blocks (SPRKZ) the SKU on one of the two T-Lane.
Thanks in advance for your support.

Hi Mauro,
In my opinion you have to create a program to delete the lock indicator. First you have to extract the information from tr.lanes, then change (delete X indicator) and save. This job should be scheduled before heuristic run.
To extract data from tr.lanes you can use BAPI_TRLSRVAPS_GETLIST2. To change and save you can use BAPI_TRLSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2.
Hope that can help you!
Thanks.

How to determine the process alias using condition technique in Transportation & Shipment Scheudling?

Dear All,
I am trying to use the functionality Transportation and Shipment Scheduling in GATP.
I would like to know that how the sytem determines the process alias using condition technique in Transportation & Shipment Scheudling?
As the Transportation & Shipment Scheduling functionality can be extended further by using the configurable process to overcome the complex scenario. But it needs that process alias should not be determined by using the condition technique.
Moreover, is it possible to use both functionality simultaneously in the system. i.e. Transportation and Shipment Scheduling using condition technique and Transportation and Shipment Scheduling using configurable process?
Thanks & Regards
Piyush Ranpura

Hi Piyush,
I have added a small overview in the SCN WIKI which shows you the two ways for the process alias determination and also here as attachment:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SCM/Time+and+Scheduling+Functions
Yes, depending on your customizing you can use both scheduling methods in parallel. e.g. you activate CPS just for a specific ITEM category or product and/or customer and/or....what ever you want.
best regards,
Michael
