Undertaking subcintracting behalf of others

Hello,
We take raw materals from other companies to manufacture finished goods behalf of them. Raw materals are given free of charge to us while the we get paid per one finished good.
What is the best way to handle this in sap?
What documents/process must be used in SAP to bring in raw material (Stock) from other company into our stock? But I need them to be seprate from our own stock.

Hi
this can be handeled by make to order scenario
The Cycle of Made to order: Steps: MTO Scenario
1. Material Creation (Made To order Material with major changes of: Item Category: 0004-make to order/assem.,or 0001-make to order)
2. Routing Creation
3. Creation of BOM
4. Sales order
5. Production order Scheduling, Costing, Release and Save
6. Production order Quantity confirmations for operations, Parallel task of material issue to order or to reservations (261)
7. Fully Produced Production Quantities will be put into stock (GR)
8. Delivery against sales order
9. Invoicing.

  • Procurement on behalf of other Company

    Dear team,
    Below is my query which is challenging to map in SAP.
    Pls sugges solution.
    1. My client A is procuring materials on behalf of his parent company B. Vendors raises bill on Company B.
    2. But all the procurement activities are doing by Compnay A. These materials will be used by Compnay A for carrying out work.
    3. So Comapany A wants all the transactions [PO tracking/GRN with values/invoicing] to be captured in his Company code but without effects in trial-balance sheet.
    Pls suggest
    Tushar

    Hi
    If the Compnay A is raising the PO then the vendor should also send the bill to Compnay A.
    If compnay A is purchasing on behalf of company B then you can maintaintain Compnay B in the PO and maintain the Plant of Copmnay A in the iteme level.
    So if you do the GR this will go into company A,  and when you post an invoice this will be posted in Company B.
    For this kind of postings intercompnay configuration to be completed by FI.
    I am not sure if this process being followed is leaglly acceptable. Please check with Finance if this is the way they would want the process
    Thanks & Regards

  • Purchase on behalf of other company

    Hi Gurus,
    I need suggestion.
    Biz scenario:
    Company 1000, purchasing org 1000, plant 1000
    Company 2000, purchasing org 2000, plant 2000
    External Vendor
    Company 1000 raise order to Company 2000.
    Company 2000 raise order to External Vendor.
    External Vendor will directly ship the goods to Company 1000.
    Payment to external vendor will be done by Company 2000.
    Company 1000 will pay to Company 2000 as an interco.
    It's like third party, but the customer is another company (company 1000).
    Does anyone have encounter this kind of biz scenario?
    Is there any best practice/sollution for this?
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    If we are using third party sales...
    1. Company 2000 will create SO for Company 1000, and PR to external vendor will be created automatically.
    2. External vendor will ship the goods to Company 1000
    3. Company 2000 may do statistical GR.
    4. Company 2000 will issue invoice to Company 1000.
    The questin are:
    1. How Company 2000 know the requirement from Company 1000?
    2. How Company 1000 perform goods receive (and increase the stock in their plant 1000)?
    1 ) Company code 1000 will create PO against that Po company code 2000 will create SO
    2) 2. How Company 1000 perform goods receive (and increase the stock in their plant 1000)?
         Against  PO which you received they can perform MIGO
    f we are using STO...
    1. Company 1000 raise STO to Company 2000.
    2. Company 2000 raise PO to External Vendor.
    3. External Vendor will directly ship the goods to Company 1000.
    4. Payment to external vendor will be done by Company 2000.
    5. Company 1000 will pay to Company 2000 as an interco.
    The question are:
    1. How Company 2000 convert STO from Company 1000, into PO to external vendor?
    Manual entry? MRP generate PR? Or any automatic STO to PO conversion/creation (something like 3rd party SO & it's PR)?
    2. Is there any method to perform goods receive only in Company 1000 (without Company 2000 performing goods receive from vendor & goods issue to company 1000)?
    3. If there is, then how to di it?
    Cross company STO nothing but sales
    so for  STO PO company code 2000 will create SO ,so will get convert into PR and then PO

  • Shop on behalf and limit items on BBPSC02

    Hi experts,
    We are on SRM 5.0 using classic scenario.
    Is it possible to activate the 'shop on behalf' function and order limit items using BBPSC02? If yes, how?
    Kind Regards,
    Tom

    Hi Tom,
    You can Shop on Behalf of other person even though you are in classic scenario.
    I think this functionality is scenario independent.
    The only difference here is instead of creating a P.O in SRM the system will create either a P.R or P.O in back end R/3 based on the completeness of shopping cart.
    As far as limit items are concerned i have never tried a scenario like this but you can surely do Shop on behalf in classic scenario.
    Hope this makes you more clear and helps in resolving your issue. Clarifications are welcome.
    Award points for helpful answers.

  • Team shopping cart and Shopping on behalf

    Dear Experts,
    What is the difference you have observed between team shopping cart and Shopping on behalf?
    Do you observe differences other than the below ones:
    1. Team shopping cart can be taken over by any one in the team defined in the substitution of the creator in any stage (including even draft stage) so that the team members can enhance the shopping cart and take over it in the absence of the creator.
    However, 'Shopping on behalf' does not offer the same flexibility. In absence of the shopping cart creator, the original requestor (shop for) can just have receive or confirm the delivery in the shopping cart.
    Do you see any other differences other than the above ones?
    Regards,
    Ranjan

    Hello Ranjan
    Please find the answer below:
    In both team purchasing and shopping on behalf of other users, a person other than the requester is involved in processing the shopping cart. However, the two functions are used in different situations:
    If someone shops on behalf of another user, typically a single person works with the shopping cart from the start of the requisitioning process. For example, a purchasing assistant or secretary creates a shopping cart for a manager and follows the process through until the confirmation or invoice is created. Only the person on whose behalf the shopping cart is created can take over the shopping cart or the follow-on documents.
    In team purchasing, any user who is defined as a procurement substitute can take over the shopping cart. Within this process, several users can be involved and can take over the team shopping cart from each other. This can be useful, for example, in the following situations:
    An employee leaves the company, and the successor later takes over this person's responsibilities.
    An employee is sick, and a colleague takes over the shopping cart.
    A team of employees works in shifts, and a shopping cart that is time-critical must be processed by a colleague working in a different shift.
    Well, the reference to this answer is:

  • How we set up multiple websites on OSX Server

    BACKGROUND
    After fiddling and futzing around for weeks (actually since last year) I've finally figured out how to set up multiple websites (virtual sites) using one port and one IP address. While there seems to be lots of discussion on this topic, it seems that the basic assumption is that one knows everything about websites, DNS and all that stuff, which I do not.
    When our network was originally established the engineer set up a wiki and also configured webmail, so we had two sites, one secured for mail and the other open for Calendar and the wiki. We were not hosting any websites locally because our school website is hosted by a company in New England.
    This year I wanted to set up websites for teachers and students. As great as the wiki is, there are some things it just can't do as well as a website. So I figured if I set up the sites teachers could link back and forth from one to the other. In addition kids could now start to use a real website instead of the cobbled together file mess I had when we ran a Windows network. Also iWeb is a much more accessible tool than FrontPage.
    SERVER SIDE:
    Snow Leopard Server - 10.6.4
    There are two - actually three pieces if you want your iWeb clients to connect to the server: Server Side Web Services, DNS and, in my case, FTP.
    ================================================ SERVER SIDE - WEB SERVICES
    If you haven't turned on Web services, you'll need to open Server Admin and do that. If you don't know how to set up web services - just reply and I'll step you through that as well.
    Once web services are set up and turned on, you'll see it listed under your server’s name in the Server Admin sidebar. Click on "Web" and then click on the "Sites" tab at the top of page. This is where you list all your sites.
    Click the plus button and enter the fully qualified name of your site, for example: "students.myschool.org". Don't use the defaults here (no name) - that's what got me in trouble before. BE SPECIFIC!
    You'll be looking at the "General" tab (the other tabs, "Options", "Realms", etc. we'll deal with in a second).
    On the "General Tab", the default IP address ("any") and port (80) is just fine. We'll run everything over port 80. (Apache figures all the virtual site stuff out - you don't need your rocket science degree for that.)
    "Web Folder:" is important because this is how you'll "segment" your websites. While I would NEVER do this again, we have a solid state hard drive for the OS and a RAID array for our data files. IF you have that, make sure you do NOT use the default "Web Folder" because it will store all your files on your solid state drive. There may not be enough room, over time, on that drive. I've not experienced it yet, but it's my understanding that if the drive fills up, the server shuts down.
    I store my web sites on a folder on the RAID array.
    Everything else on that tab can be left as the default. (Just make sure that you have an "index.html" or "index.php" file in your web folder root, but iWeb will take care of that for you.)
    I would put in your email address in the "Administrator Email:" field.
    Under "Options" you really don't have to put anything. I've tested making websites with iWeb and it doesn't appear that anything needs to be checked.
    Nothing needs to be entered in "Realms" as well from what I see working w/ iWeb.
    The defaults in "Logging" are fine.
    You can leave "Security" alone, but we do have a (self-issued) certificate listed for our webmail site.
    "Aliases" is important. Under "Web Server Aliases" you enter how you want the site to respond to when users type in a URL in their web browsers.
    When our web server was initially set up the engineer set up "wiki.myschool.org" on port 80 and "mail.myschool.org" on port 443. In the aliases section was nothing but a "*" (the wildcard character). That means, from what I can figure out, that the webserver will respond to these sites regardless of what is typed in the URL. (Well, something like that - point is, if you create OTHER websites, you'll NEVER get to them because the wildcard character in the "Aliases" section, in effect, grabs those web requests and redirects them to the sites that are already there.
    In my case I deleted both of those wild card characters. For my "wiki.myschool.org" site, I entered "mail.myschool.org". That means if you type EITHER "wiki." or "mail.", go to the site that’s stored in the “Web Folder” we set up when those sites were created.
    For "mail.myschool.org" I just DELETED the wildcard character. I wanted that site (since it was secured) only to respond to "mail." - nothing else. (You're not going to that secured site for any other reason than to get your mail.)
    "Proxy" can be left blank. Have no idea what that does. As time permits I'll do some research and figure out what it's used for.
    "Web Services" is if you want to provide any MORE services to this particular site. Most likely you'll want to uncheck all the boxes. For our "wiki." site, we have checked "Wikis", "Blogs", and "Calendar". For our "mail." site we have those checked PLUS "Mail".
    I would create a separate "Web Folder" for each of your sites. I don't know if that's a requirement but for housekeeping purposes, I would keep the sites separated. And I SUSPECT that it's "best practice" to separate your wiki from your other websites.
    SERVER SIDE - DNS
    OK...now you have to make your site reachable and the only way to do that is to set up DNS so that folks don't need to type in the IP address of your web server. You need to set up DNS inside your network and, if you want folks in the outside world to reach your website, you'll need to set up an external DNS as well. I'm going to cover INTERNAL DNS - if you don't know how to set up EXTERNAL DNS - reply or email me and I'll post those instructions.
    Most likely you have already created Zones for you network...all you really need to do is create "Aliases" so that when you type "students.myschool.org" your web browser will know that site resides on IP address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX.
    If you've set up Zones then you already have a "Machine" setting that translates your server’s name to an IP address and vice versa.
    All you need to do is create an "Alias" (CNAME) record for, in this case, "students". You’ll see the choices for types of records when you click the "Add Record" button.
    There are only two fields to configure for a record: "Alias Name" - in this case "students" and "Destination" - in this case "servername.myschool.org". (You've already entered a machine record that says "servername" = 192.168.1.x.)
    That's it for Internal DNS.
    SERVER SIDE - FTP
    Now you have to get iWeb to communicate with the webserver.
    There are only three ways iWeb will communicate with webservers: MobileMe, Local Folder and FTP Server.
    Local Folder is really only practical if you want to host a website on a laptop (I was blown away initially when I found out that all Macs had a built-in web server - how neat is that?). I think there are some very cool things teachers could do with configuration, and, of course, you wouldn't need to set up any web services on the web server, but that's for another discussion. You need to set up FTP services on the web server.
    Turn on and enable FTP on your webserver.
    You can leave the defaults for "General", "Messages" and "Logging". "Advanced" is the only thing you want to set. I set "Authenticated Users See:" to "Home Folder Only". I set the "FTP Root" to the same root folder in which I plan to store my web sites (/VOLUMES/RAID Array/WebServer/Documents). This setting sets that folder only to be accessible via FTP.
    I would suggest returning to your DNS settings and adding one more "Alias". Set "ftp." to point to your webserver. Why? So folks can edit their sites from home (see below).
    CAVEAT: If you are running FTP on other servers, make sure that the settings here do not conflict with the settings on the other servers. For example, I'm running FTP on my file server so that my scanners can communicate with it. However, I configure my FTP settings by machine name and NOT "ftp.myschool.org".
    ================================================
    CLIENT SIDE - CONFIGURING iWEB
    Now you have to configure iWeb so that it will communicate with your server.
    Click on the "Site" icon so that "Site Publishing Settings" appears.
    Publishing:
    "Publish to:" = "FTP Server"
    You can set the "Site name:" and "Contact email:" to whatever you want. But see below!
    FTP Server Settings:
    "Server address"=ftp.myschool.org (you could also enter in servername.myschool.org or the IP address. However, if you want folks to be able to work on the site from home, you will need to configure external DNS for that. If you use the IP address, you're out of luck for remote access to the site. (You can do it but it's beyond the scope of this discussion.)
    "Username" & "Password" should be your user's network login credentials.
    "Directory/Path" - this is important. Remember, you set your "FTP Root" to be "/VOLUMES/RAID Array/WebServer/Documents". If you leave this field blank then the website will be dumped into this folder. If you are only setting up one site, that may be OK. However I wanted to set up a "students" site folder, a "faculty" site folder and a separate site for our literary magazine.
    THEREFORE: I have, in my ..../Documents folder (on the server), a "students" folder, a "faculty" folder, and a "litmag" folder.
    SO...in my "Directory/Path:" field, I have "/faculty". That means the full path to this website is "ftp root/faculty" or "/VOLUMES/RAID Array/WebServer/Documents/faculty" (You don't need a trailing "/" character. iWeb will automatically append the folder for you user depending on what you entered in "Site Name:" in the "Publishing" area.
    Website URL:
    This is the root website depending on whether it is "students" or "faculty". Since iWeb will append the site name to this root website, I accomplished what I hoped to accomplish in this post (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=12288561#12288561).
    Faculty sites will be @ http://faculty.myschool.org/username. Students @ http://students.myschool.org/username. PERFECT!
    iWeb is such a GREAT tool - NOW the kids can start using it!
    I want to reiterate that this works for our school but it should work for you as well. There may be better ways to do this but it works for us.
    Hope this has been helpful and you won't have to spend weeks trying to figure this all out by yourself!

    OK...here's how we did it.
    To get access to the website you created from outside your network there are a couple of steps.
    First, you have to have a STATIC IP address from your ISP. If you have a T1 circuit, no problem...you usually get a couple of static IPs you can use. However, if you have a cable modem circuit, most likely you have a dynamic IP address which changes when you connect to the internet. Usually a static IP will cost a bit more because the ISP has to go through a couple of steps to set it up for you. But once you have the address, you now have a way for folks outside your network to connect with you.
    (I’m also assuming that you use a router of some sort through which traffic flows out to the internet and that you aren’t using connection sharing or something like that.)
    The next thing you need to do is have your new static IP address associated with the server on which you are hosting your website. You've probably already done that if your website works inside your network. However, you've associated a private ip (192.168.x.x, etc.) to your web server. That doesn't mean anything to folks on the outside because private IP addresses are just that - private - folks can't access them. (I won't get into VPN because that's a whole other topic.)
    The way you associate your new static IP address to your web server is through some sort of dns application from your ISP. For example, we use TierraNet to manage our external DNS information. They have a web interface control panel that is very similar to the DNS interface for XServer. You can create CNAME records (aliases - other ways that folks can access your servers).
    Basically you create an "A" (CNAME) record with a fully qualified domain name (e.g. webserver.myschool.org) and point it to your public IP address (XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX) which you just got from your ISP. It's going to take a while (24-48 hours) for this change to take effect. BTW, you can create as many “A” records as you want. For example mail.myschool.com and wiki.myschool.com could point to the same place.
    You want to make sure that the fully qualified domain name you enter in the external dns utility matches the name you used when you created your internal dns records on your XServer.
    OK...so now folks can get to your domain - but, remember, you have a private network IP scheme between them and you. You now have to tell your router that when web traffic arrives, allow it inside the network and direct it to your web server.
    Let's say your public IP address is 205.100.112.50 and your web server is 192.168.0.5.
    You have to create, in your router’s "Security Zone" (router companies call them different things) a couple of rules. Usually the first rule is: "Let everything inside the network get out to the web." You've probably already done that if folks inside the network can reach the internet.
    You then have to tell the router to allow web traffic (port 80) into your network AND redirect that traffic to 192.168.0.5.
    We use AdTran routers and they have a web interface which allows you to write "rules" affecting public and private traffic. Public is folks outside the network, private is folks inside.
    AdTran calls them "Security Zones" and you modify those zones with policies.
    So my "Policy" would say, in the above example, redirect traffic from my public IP (205.100.112.50) -> to my web server -> (192.168.0.5).
    THEN you have to modify this policy with what AdTran calls "Traffic Selectors". You've said, OK, you can get in, but WHAT can get in?
    The "Traffic Selector" is written to say: "Permit" "TCP" traffic from 205.100.112.50 only through Port 80. (That's the port that web traffic goes over. If you wanted a secure website, you'd add another traffic selector that opens port 443, for example.)
    I'll tell you I'm no genius when it comes to this. I called AdTran and had them configure my router for me. I told them what I wanted done, they remoted into the router and configured it. But then I could go to the web interface and see what they did and then added rules later on when I wanted, for example, to get access to the network via Apple Remote Desktop or VPN into the network on my iPad.
    I'd bet that your router has a maintenance agreement that includes this service and if it doesn't it should have.
    I did find that I still had issues when I tried to set this up originally and it had to do with the ORDER of the policies. I can’t remember exactly what the issue was, but, effectively one of the policies highjacked traffic before the policy that I wanted got triggered. Simply moving them around in the list fixed that issue. So if you have this set up but still can’t access the site, check the order of your rules.
    I don’t know if that helps or not, but I try to think about this stuff conceptually and then get someone to help me with the details. I work with this stuff so infrequently that I forgot how I did something 6 months or a year ago. I’m in the process of creating a wiki for the school which documents all this stuff, but that’s a major undertaking.
    Cheers,
    John

  • Getting error while running Agent in obiee 11g

    Hi,
    We are using external table authentication in our application. We created 10 user in the table, when we are logging to the application we are able to log in.
    After log in when we are creating Agent and click on run, it is showing error as [nQSError: 13024] Successful completion of init block 'security1' is required. (08004)
    Security1 is our initialization block for authentication. But when I create one user in console and give admin priviledges to that user and try to run same agent, it is running fine.
    Please let me know if I miss something or anything else need to configure.
    Thanks
    Anirban

    Hope you have strictly followed the steps mentioned in the document:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/bi.1111/e10543/legacy.htm#BABGEHJJ
    Specifically note : Oracle BI Scheduler Server runs Delivers jobs for users without accessing or storing their passwords. Using a process called impersonation, Oracle BI Scheduler uses one user name and password with Oracle Business Intelligence administrative privileges that can act on behalf of other users. Oracle BI Scheduler initiates an Agent by logging on to Oracle BI Presentation Services with the Oracle Business Intelligence administrative name and password.
    For Delivers to work, all database authentication must be performed in only one connection pool, and that connection pool can only be selected in an initialization block for the USER system session variable. This is typically called the Authentication Initialization Block. When impersonation is used, this initialization block is skipped. All other initialization blocks must use connection pools that do not use database authentication.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks and regards,

    UPDATE: I've done a three level cleaning of the printer heads, which DOES print in color and each color block now looks great.  The printer heads were not printing any color blocks, but the pink color block,  until the first third level cleaning. I then cleaned the printer heads a second time all the way through the third level.
    RESULT: However when I print from any document/web page my printer only still prints in black & white after these two printer adjustments double three stage printer cartridge claening?
     ACTION TAKEN #2
    I found this very detailed report and video on cleaning printer heads, alignment issues, and calibrate line feeds;
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01624398&lc=en&product=3964986&tmp...
    The Print Quality Diagnostics Page looks perfect (including the alignment section)  in all 3 test patterns, and again prints in color. 
    RESULT: However, my printer still will not print in color after trying all these steps?
    IPROBLEM #2)I  've also tried a align printer which also prints in color,  but states, "alignment failed see documentation manual"? To make the situation more complicated the alignment page looks perfect  and prints in color before the error message displays. 
    After puling the power cord  twice while ON  and wiating 20 seconds, as discussed in the above link. my printer "won't remove the, "align  error message see diagnostics manual".
    RESULT: Printer "won't remove the, "align  error message see diagnostics manual", even though the Printer Diagnostic Pages looks great, and the alignment page as well.
    I'm operating a lastest version Macbook Air laptop OS X 10.9.4. I have not upgraded to a new operating system since this problem started a week ago, and Ive owned this HP Printer for 2 years. 
    UPDATE: ISSUE SOLVED. Well you can imagine when I say that I spent about 2 hours on this yesterday that yea he's right. This took a long time to research and try all these solutions. I told my wife about the issue and had her try:
    ACTION TAKEN #3: Print a page from a second computer. Windows laptop printed a colored page from a web site.  
    SOLUTION: (Printing only in Black Color): Wife literally solved the problem in 3 minutes! 
    Look below at the presets drop-down arrow tab, which is right below the printer name: You will see PLAIN PAPER, FAST DRAFT, BLACK AN(D WHITE). I'm not sure how I checked this, but this is how you can print only in black ink. NOTE: I looked at dozens of answers across the web, and didn't find this info anywhere else!
    This screen shot show you what the setting should be if you want to print in fast draft mode to use the least amount of color ink. 

    Hi monkplayer,
    It looks like your problem is solved? There wasn't a problem with the printer itself, just the printer settings on your Mac?
    This is good information though. We don't always have detailed solutions for customers that are using Safari, since it is hard to write instructions for the general public with specific steps for each operating system.
    Best of luck,
    Mary

  • Parse and output XML document while preserving attribute order

    QUESTION: How can I take in an element with attributes from an XML and output the same element and attributes while preserving the order of those attributes?
    The following code will parse and XML document and generate (practically) unchanged output. However, all attributes are ordered a-z
    Example: The following element
    <work_item_type work_item_db_site="0000000000000000" work_item_db_id="0" work_item_type_code="3" user_tag_ident="Step" name="Work Step" gmt_last_updated="2008-12-31T18:00:00.000000000" last_upd_db_site="0000000000000000" last_upd_db_id="0" rstat_type_code="1">
    </work_item_type>is output as:
    <work_item_type gmt_last_updated="2008-12-31T18:00:00.000000000" last_upd_db_id="0" last_upd_db_site="0000000000000000" name="Work Step" rstat_type_code="1" user_tag_ident="Step" work_item_db_id="0" work_item_db_site="0000000000000000" work_item_type_code="3">
    </work_item_type>As you may notice, there is no difference in these besides order of the attributes!
    I am convened that the problem is not in the stylesheet.xslt but if you are not then it is posted bellow.
    Please, someone help me out with this! I have a feeling the solution is simple
    The following take the XML from source.xml and outputs it to DEST_filename with attributes in a-z order
    Code:
    private void OutputFile(String DEST_filename, String style_filename){
         //StreamSource stylesheet = new StreamSource(style_filename);
         try{
              File dest_file = new File(DEST_filename);
              if(!dest_file.exists())
                  dest_file.createNewFile();
              TransformerFactory tranFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
              Transformer aTransformer = tranFactory.newTransformer();
              aTransformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING, "UTF-8");
              Source src = new DOMSource("source.xml");
              Result dest = new StreamResult(dest_file);
              aTransformer.transform(src, dest);
              System.out.println("Finished");
         catch(Exception e){
              System.err.print(e);
              System.exit(-1);
        }

    You can't. The reason is, the XML Recommendation explicitly says the order of attributes is not significant. Therefore conforming XML serializers won't treat it as if it were significant.
    If you have an environment where you think that the order of attributes is significant, your first step should be to reconsider. Possibly it isn't really significant and you are over-reaching in some way. Or possibly someone writing requirements is ignorant of this fact and the requirement can be discarded.
    Or possibly your output is being given to somebody else who has a defective parser which expects the attributes to be in a particular order. You could quote the XML Recommendation to those people but often XML bozos are resistant to change. If you're stuck writing for that parser then you'll have to apply some non-XML processing to your output to fix it up on their behalf.

  • Problems setting up release management

    Hi I am running into problems in setting up Microsoft Release Management. I have 2 domains. My tfs (separate server), release management server and release management client (both on single physical server) are in domain1 and deployer is in domain2 in Azure
    VM. I am using a VPN tunnel to connect release management server, release management client and deployer. They connect with each other nicely. The problem comes when I add reference to tfs in release management client. TFS fails to verify. Now
    the user I am using to connect has Make requests on behalf of
    others' permissions so that is not the issue. I get TF400324 error. I even used wireshark to troubleshoot but it looks as if release management
    client is not even trying to connect. I can access tfs url via web browser with vpn connected from machine on which release management client is running. when  Now if I disconnect the vpn and try to verify tfs from release
    management client it works. Does release management client supports connecting via ipv6 tunnel?

    Hi abhijitdamle,
    I'd like to know how do you connecting via ipv6 tunnel, and when you get the error(without vpn connection?) . If your machine can be access via HTTP/HTTPS, then RM client can also be connected. For your situation, seems you got the
    issue resolved after using vpn.
    If you have other concerns about the error, you can also check the methods below to see if it works for you:
    1. Check the permission of the user account you use, make sure it has the permission of "make requests on behalf of others"
    2. Clean team foundation cache on your RM client machine
    3. Check the team project collection url to ensure it's input correctly, or use the solution on this
    page
