An SAP Solution for capital planning and Budgeting of Capital Assets?

Is there an SAP Solution for the Planning and Budgeting of Capital Assets?
A solution that provides planning, budgeting, and tracking for capital assets through the entire life cycle of each asset, from the initial request through the final disposal.
The solution needs to be able to run scenarios. A scenario contains equipment that may potentially be purchased. Scenario items are used to help determine cost, capacity, and cash flow feasibility.

Hi
What you suggested is the ideal approach...
However, if they say that the budget allocated to capital purposes (70%) applies to both capital projects and expenses and they would like to control it together, but have reports separately, it is not possible with standard SAP...
If they want to have just one IO for both cap and exp, You can suggest them a work around to capture CAPITAL or EXPENSE in a ref field (XREF1 in BSEG) and you can run KOB1 with XREF1 displayed in it....
In standard KOB1, XREF1 is not displayed, you have to use Exit COOMEP01 to include the fields you want... Add XREF1 to the Structure CI_RKPOS and write your code in the include ZXKAEPU01 of EXIT_SAPLKAEP_001
Without an identifier @ the time of booking the transaction in the system (Either by way of IO or a ref field), you wont be able to generate reports later on

SAP Solution for Mini steel plant with DRI Process

Dear all,
I am a metallurgist who spent couple of years in steel and process Industry and then moved to IT Consulting as SAP consultant / business analyst mainly working in the area of solution designing.
Here i will like to describe SAP solution for Mini steel plant with DRI proces.
u201CManufacture Productsu201D Description
The series of operations performed upon material to convert it from the raw material or a semifinished state to a state of further completion. This includes the establishment and maintenance of a CAPEX plan, the planning, scheduling and execution of production activities, the dispositioning of produced goods, the maintenance of production data, the monitoring of production performance and the implementation of engineering changes.
u201CManufacture Productsu201D Objectives
M-010
Compile 3-year CAPEX Budget     Establish the overall manufacturing goals and metrics that the organization will use to measure performance and progress towards objectives. These goals should be consistent with overall organizational strategy/value propositions. Develop long-term goals for production capabilities and manufacturing. These goals should align with the overall goals and objectives of the organization.
M-050
Perform Long Range Production Planning     u201CBudgetingu201D. Long range planning of production quantities based on planned available capacities and known or estimated customer demands. This process may include planning for different capacity and/or demand scenarios. Approved capital expenditures from the 3-year CAPEX budget may influence the budget. Range and frequency for budgeting is yearly.
M-060
Perform Medium Range Production Planning     Medium range planning of production quantities based on planned available capacities and known or estimated customer demands. This process may include planning for different capacity and/or demand scenarios. Range and frequency for planning is quarterly.
M-070
Perform Short Range Production Planning     Short term planning of production quantities based on capacities and demands as previously planned in the longer terms, actual customer demand and actual capacities. The result from short range production planning will run into the operational plan for the current and following days. Range and frequency for planning is monthly.
M-080
Schedule Production     This sub-process enables detailed scheduling by resources over the planning horizon. Planned orders that fulfill demands (Stock Transfer Requisitions, Sales Forecasts and Customer Orders defined by due-dates and due-quantities) come from the short range plan. This results in a feasible schedule, optimizing utilization of the production resources. It is based on production process constraints as well as labor resources in order to minimize production costs and also taking into account constraining raw materials availability.
M-090
Execute MRP     The purpose of this sub-process is to generate a Materials Requirements Plan (MRP) for all materials, which are produced or purchased. The MRP process involves looking at current material inventory, planned inbound material deliveries, requirements, lead times and stock levels to generate a detailed plan for future material requirements. The materials requirements will be generated with respect to the three planning horizons, short-term, medium-term, and long term. If an over stock of raw materials occurs as a result of a planning change production and marketing personnel will be informed. This would allow for the cancellations of any unneeded shipments.
M-100
Perform Setup / Changeover     Perform set-up and changeover activities on production equipment as necessary, to prepare for the production of specific materials/grades. Set-up and changeover activities will enable the production equipment to perform operations on materials, as per the specifications called out on the production order. Ensure time is allocated for first off inspection requirements after changeover.
M-110
Execute Production     Insure that the production plan is met by converting raw materials and component supplies into finished and semi-finished products. Batch/lot documentation will be created for individual production orders to provide traceability throughout the process. Each step of the production process is continuously monitored to identify mechanical, quality, and productivity issues and suggest solutions when problems arise. Data collection for performance and financial reporting enables management to take immediate action on manufacturing processes as well as conduct historical analysis.
M-120
Perform Quality Management     Quality management refers to the entire supply chain process. Process activities are related to the evaluation and inspection of key characteristics of semi-finished and finished materials. These evaluations are recorded and acted on based on the results. Report/manage internal quality problems or issues. Install and manage quality control systems to insure product quality. For supplier or subcontractor based issues this data should be used as a performance measure during the vendor evaluation process.
M-130
Manage Product Disposition     This process ensures those semi-finished and finished products that do not meet quality requirements, are prevented from being used and distributed in good finished product to customer, or released for the next step of the production process. A semi finished product is any material that needs to have another operation on line before being shipped to the customer. Finished goods are defined as any material that can be shipped to a customer; in house produced finished goods, subcontracted materials and trading goods. The information required to make decisions regarding disposition comes from the Quality Management system of each production facility. The first step ensures that raw material and returnable goods are dealt with in another subprocess. The reason for the goods not meeting quality standards is recorded along with the results of any investigation to find the cause of the fault. Information is sent to all other parties who need to know: order fulfillment, inventory management and shipping. The process ensures that the most appropriate action is taken to either dispose of, or rework the goods. Disposal or rework may be either through the original materials supplier or subcontractor, or Mittal Steel Point Lisas.
M-140
Maintain Product Related Data     u201CMaterial Master Maintenanceu201D. The Sub-Process 'Maintain Product Related Data' is the list of activities that identify the steps and decision points related to the request for and performance of additions, changes, and deletions to the Material Master file or files. This sub-process begins when a need to create, change or delete a material is identified and ends when the request is either actioned or refused. The sub-process is intended to cover all material types, including finished goods, raw materials, bills of materials, equipment and service, POS, Sundry Items etc. In fact, any product which the company wishes to inventory or purchase. A number of key strategic decisions, including a clear definition of when we issue a new material, will affect this sub-process.
M-150
Maintain Production Related Data     u201CMaster Data Maintenanceu201D. This subprocess identifies the activities related to requesting changes or additions to production related master data. Once a need for master data maintenance is identified, a request is submitted for approval. Data defining production capacities and performance standards (e.g. line efficiencies, material yields, etc.) require Corporate level approval prior to maintenance. Other data that is more specific to internal planning functions are maintained at the plant level. Maintenance requests are returned to the originator whether the request is approved or not to improve communication throughout the system. This subprocess may be triggered by: annual operations budgeting process process/production equipment upgrade or replacement change in facility work schedule (i.e. planned hours or days) change in personnel required to operate process/production equipment new products, formulations, or packaging.
M-160
Operations Execution Reporting     Gather manufacturing information at various points in the production process. Prepare management reports both at the detailed level for plant management and summary level for senior operations management. Reports will be available on-demand and will include - volume, efficiencies (mechanical, line, and labor), yields, downtime, asset utilization, environmental, safety, quality, and financial data. A major goal of this sub-process is to define a consistent method of calculating operations metrics. Some plants will use line information systems and PCSs to collect information. Not all plants are equipped with these systems and the where they do exist, the level of sophistication varies.
M-170
Manage Process Reliability     Optimize capacity by reducing process downtime and ensuring compliance to quality expectations by the reduction of rejects. Install tracking systems to measure line time utilization, quality results, process settings. Conduct root cause analysis, and use the data to develop and implement improved operating procedures.

Thank you for your prompt response. I'm assuming you are still proposing to use Sales order -> purchase order -> invoice verification -> Customer billing process flow. Is that correct?

SAP AII for production process

Hello,
I'm an ABAP programmer but I have to find some information (integration scenario example) about using RFID for managing a production process with SAP.
I found only for SCM:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_autoid40/helpdata/en/43/ec3b1c601f6bf1e10000000a11466f/content.htm
Is it posible to manage a production process with SAP's AII <-> XI <-> ERP like it can be done for SCM?
Thanks.
Traian

Hi Mustata,
   Yes it is very much possible to RFID enable the SAP R/3 Production process.
   AII 4.0 supported out of the box execution of Outbound delivery process and Inbound Delivery process.
   The configuration guide for same are available at this link http://service.sap.com/scm
    you can get the config guide in detailed information of RFID under SCM.
   Now answer to your question SAP AII for production process.
   AII 5.1 supports creation on new document in AII. Also the documents from backend system SAP R/3 sent to AII via XI with the help of standard document interface.
The documents related to production process can be then executed in AII with the help of RFID and after document execution in AII, if required, the document data can be sent to SAP R/3 for completion of the document in backend system.
Hope this answers your query. Do read the configuration guides.
If same process needs to be done in AII 4.0 then customisation will be need to implement the production process integration.
Thanks and regards,
Amit Deshpande

SAP Solution for customer crosscheck

Hi.
For security reasons one of our customers wants to crosscheck customers with an external database located in Switzerland. Does someone have an idea whether or not SAP has a standard solution for this?
Basically it entails reading the customer details from sales order/inquiry, blocking the order/inquiry while sending the details to an external database, receiving the reply and whether good or bad then releasing/discarding aforementioned order/inquiry.
Sincerely

ATP Check Finished Goods against Components for production planning

Hi All,
Our business has a requirement that they want finished goods to be planned based on the availability of components. Currently we have an APO solution which plans at finished goods level only so there is no need to bring components into APO. We will probably use CTM (currently using Heuristics)
We have concerns about the harm that this will do to our system performance and we really do not want to bring these components into APO. We are therefore interested if there is any way we can avoid bringing these components into APO.
In the past, there use to be a seperate ATP server from SAP where this could be done but my understanding is that this was discontinued and is no longer supporetd. Can someone advise me if there was a product that replaced this ATP Server or does anyone have any suggestions on how we can avoid bringing the components into APO. Please consider that it is not possible to limit to just critical components.
Mark

Mark,
Hmmm.. Your seem to be considering adding hardware to support ATP server, but you seem unwilling to consider adding more hardware to the current SCM solution? Doesn't make much sense to me. Like most SAP products, SCM/APO can be expanded almost infinitely, if you need performance gains. Which you don't know yet.
Anyhow, depending on your requirements, CTM is probably overkill. PPDS or SNP alone would be adequate. If enhanced availability checking is what you want, then one of the GATP solutions would work.
I guess ATP server still exists (run transaction ACBD from ECC) but I don't think I have ever seen anyone use ATP server at the same time they are using SCM. All ATP server does is move the processing load of ECC ATP check onto a distinct buffered memory area. I don't see how that will solve your problem, but I guess I don't really understand what you mean by "planned based on the availability of components." You don't need anything special to plan FGs in SCM and components in R/3, this is pretty standard.

SAp Solution for revised IAS 23 - Borrowing Costs

Does SAP has any solution to adopt/adhere to the revised IAS 23 which requries to capitalize the borrowing costs.This is effective from 01.01.2009.
I can devide the required activities into below.
1.
Determine borrowing cost u2013
Specific borrowings (we can capitalize interest on borrowings specific to asset)
General borrowings u2013 calculate capitalization rate based on weighted average of borrowing costs except the specific borrowings as mentioned above.
Borrowing costs - interest, finance charges on leases, exchange differences etc.
Classifying borrowings into specific / general needs to be done by management.
2.
Identifying qualifying assets u2013
Though we can use asset class as definition, there are various exceptions set by the standard.
The standard allows management to exercise judgement.
3.
The standard also defines when to start capitalizing the B costs and when to seize.
What is the best way/approach for this?
Does SAP has any solution to capitalise the borrowing costs?
Please give your pointers/suggestions.
thanks,
ganesh

Hi Ganesh,
To my knowledge there is not SAP standard functionality to capture borrowing costs.
But you may be able to create a workaround by making the account assignment to the borrowing specific asset at the time of accounting in SAP.
This procedure would be very much manual, though.

~Vishal.

Need solution for 2 plans, seperate bills(1 wifi, 1 DSL), 1 line and broken internet

My brother has a plan with verizon which is the one that uses the wifi router
His wifi router says Model 7500 on the front.
I felt his Internet was too slow for my needs, so I figured I'd get my own plan
Problem 1:
My 6100G modem can only connect to the Internet if I switch off my brother's router.
That's not good.
also...
Problem 2:
When i both the 7500 and the 6100G are turned on, im breaking everyones
Internet connection - including my own.
Double not good. I don't wanna pay for this for a year if I can't use it.
I just need them both to work with the Internet.
I'd rather not get a seperate phone line simply to connect to the Internet and nothing else.
And Id rather the solution not involve hooking the modem with the router.
the router needs to be in the basement since that is where
the computer that has no USB ports and no built-in wifi is located
while me & my PC live on the 2nd floor...
What's my best solution here?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I am not sure, but here is what I think.
Since you can not have both DSL modems on the same phone line, you must get another phone line.
For example of two phone lines: I used to have 610-868-0000 and 610-868-0001.
Please note: For privacy/security reasons I did not tell you my real phone numbers, in my example..

G/L Account hits for Production Planning (Process Industry)

Dear Experts,
Please I want to know the G/L Acounts that will be hit/updated during a Process order execution cycle enumerated as follows;
RawMaterials: R09 & R19, SemiFinished: S24, Finished: F29
Each of the three material types above has a different valuation class.
Using Process Order 100000, materials R09 & R19 are processed to produce S24
Using Process Order 100001, material S24 is then processed to produce F29
Confirmation of process order is then carried out using tcode cor6. ( default activities 'Machine & Labour' proposed by the system were also confirmed along with 'Yield' ) And batch number generated for the output products.
The Process Orders are then set to Technically Cpomplete and Order Settlement carried out using tcode co88.
What are the G/L accounts that will be hit in this transaction for
1. Goods issue(261)?
2. Goods receipt(101)?
3. Activities (Laour & Machine)
4. Order Settlement?
Thanks in advance as marks will be awarded accordingly.

for raw material
check in OBYC
check transaction GBB & VBR- you can find the credit and debit account based on valuation class
for GR
iN OBYC
check transaction BSX and AUF- you can find the credit and debit account based on valuation class
for activity
check in Kp26 by giving cost center and activity
you can find the secondary cost element

production versions of their applications with Halo enabled.
Used with Web Application Servers like WebLogic, Halo helps ensure
that deployed code is reliable and able to be quickly fixed if
problems turn up. Most important, because Halo is an "always on"
technology, you get all the information you need to rapidly solve a
problem on the first fault. Problem replication and bug reports are
obsolete with Halo
"Halo has a unique ability to provide a root cause diagonosis and
understanding
of software problems in production systems, without needing to
replicate the
issue.
Test on WebLogic proved that Halo runs with extremely low overhead and
is suitable for use in deployed production systems"

I have two questions. We have just started developing apps using jdev9i, 9iAS v2 and are new to the j2ee environment so my questions may be very easy ones.
Question 1: We have set up Oracle pooling connection to our databases. We have a development, test and production database. When I deploy my application, it includes the connections. This is preventing me from moving the EAR files from dev to test to prod without modification and re deploying to my EAR file. Is there a way or a place that I can put my database connections that will not be included in my EAR files and the application still find them?datasources.xml is where the info regradings connection to databases is licated. If you're using 9iAS
you can use EM to create datasource entry at the global level. In OC4J standalone you could use admin.jar
or edit the file. Check out the standalone user's guide at http://otn.oracle.com/tech/java/oc4j/pdf/oc4j_so_usersguide_r2.pdf.
Also, you will othe OC4J docs on OTN.
Question 2: I have a stand alone oc4j set up for our developers to use while testing their applications. The applications include libraries supplied in jdev such as xml parser v2. I do not want to deploy those lib files with the app because I will have to redeploy all my apps if I upgrade jdev. I just want to be able to upgrade the libraries, test the apps and not have to redeploy everything. I can do this by coping the jdev lib to 9iAS but I can't seem to find the right place to put the lib for the stand alone oc4j instance. You can use the library tag within application.xml for server wide availability. Check out the article
http://otn.oracle.com/oramag/oracle/02-sep/o52oc4j_2.html specifically class loading in OC4J section
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
