Uploading capital planning/cost control/project delivery mgmt modules in Primavera Unifier 9.12

Hello All,
I have successfully installed Primavera Unifier R9.12 on my system. I had searched a lot but I didnt find any document which tells you how to upload capital planning/cost control/project delivery management module in Primavera Unifier R9.12. Can anyone pls share the steps or document.
Thanks
AKHIL

HI Akhil,
I'd love to help you in this area but i only know the product from a tech/install side of things.
My functional colleagues had the exact same gripe that you have regarding sample data - unfortunately with the way Unifier is designed in regards to it being both customizable and difficult to delete/change some objects it doesn't quite lend itself to having sample data the way P6 does.
Good luck playing/learning the tool
Regards
Alex

First Get Struture name for Transaction CJ40
Goto SE11, and enter your structure name.eg. RKPLN
Goto the field that holds your data (e.g.WKGXXX), and double-click on the element name. Once inside the element, do a where-used list for that element, searching tables only.
Then go into each table, and see if you can find the one holding your data.
E.g COEJ,COEP,COSS

Exclude Planned Costs - Define Tolerance Limit - Budget Control

Hi,
We are trying to customize our system in order to exclude the planned costs of the project of the budget availability control.
Example: If once I have budgeted and released the project I add a component to the project I do not want to any error message to appear. Error should only appear once I generated the Purchase Requisition for an amount superior to the WBSE budget.
We have been trying with the customizing point "Define Tolerance Limit", trying with different combination of the Activities Groups but we haven't succeed.
Has anybody tried this before? Could anybody give me a hint?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
The moment you save the project (after making changes to your project, say, adding new component), system will check against the budget (since AVAC is already active).
We are trying to customize our system in order to exclude the planned costs of the project of the budget availability control.
We have been trying with the customizing point "Define Tolerance Limit", trying with different combination of the Activities Groups but we haven't succeed.
This is not possible.
As an alternative, what you can do it, before adding the new component to the project activity, you need to update your budget (suppliment) with the expected cost of the componet you are adding. This way, you can avoid this error.

Project Plan cost report - not showing any output.

Dear Experts,
I have created several projects and done the planning. I have used work centers and activity types for manpower cost planning. Also created some PRs against the project.
When I goto the network activities and select the line item in the menu path Edit - costs - Planned/Actual - cost planned /actual
It shows me the planned cost of the activity correctly.
But when I am running the report CJI4, it shows nothing. The report is not at all executing.
I dont understand why it's \not showing.
I have checked the control key PS01 for the cost field is enabled (tick available on the cost friled)
Can any one please help me??
Thanks and Regards,
Praveen

1) Please check that the WBS element is integrated in plan, and the plan integration is fully activated in the project.
2) Plan line items are only written in certain cases.
The following rules are valid:
1. Plan line items can be written in
a) structure-oriented cost planning CJ40 (total values, annual values),
b) cost planning on orders KO12,
c) unit costing independent of cost elements,
d) structure-oriented revenue planning CJ42 (total values, annual values)
e) structure-oriented financial budgeting CJ48 (total values, annual values, period values)
f) primary cost planning,
g) activity planning,
h) revenue element planning.
2. Plan line items are never written in
a) Unit costing on cost element level
b) Network costing
3. Line items are only written if a user status permits the business transaction 'Write plan line items' explicitly.
Exception:
For plan-integrated WBS elements and orders, line items are written in cost-element oriented planning if integrated corporate planning is activated in the fiscal-year parameters of the respective plan version, regardless of the user status.
4. Plan line items for structure-oriented planning can only be displayed in the respective planning transaction under menu option "Extras-->Line items".
Let me know if this was useful

Planned cost in the project

Hi,
I have created a project using Assembly processing with strategy 85. The planned cost of the project per month is say Rs 50,000/- The duration of the project/ internal activity is for 6 Months. The scenario is the planned cost is fixed for each month.i.e Rs 50,000/-. I have maintained 'Plan Price for the period' in the costing variant to get planned cost equally distributed over 6 months. But the report shows (S_ALR_87013532) the planned cost is divided over 6 months (Rs 8,333/- for each month)
Could any one help me in resolving the issue.
Rgds,
Prasad

Hai Shrikrishna
Kindly check in the Costing Tab of the Workcenter which u are referring in the Network Activity.
In the Costing u need to maintain the valid Controlling area , Cost center , Act.type.Int.Processing (Key identifying the activity type used in other types of internal processing in costing like networks) and Formula key for costing (Key which refers to the formula used to determine costs per activity type).
Unless these are not maintained cannot get the Actual costs(not planned).
Based on the hours (planned) mentioned in the workcenter , work to be confirmed(CJ20N/CN25/Cn27) to convert the planned hours into costs.
ENJOY SAP PS.

S_ALR_87013532 report -plan cost not rolling upto the WBS/Project level

Dear All,
Plan cost from production orders is not rolling up to the WBS/Project level in S_ALR_87013532 ( Plan/Actual Variance report).
Where as plan cost from network is properly rolling up to the WBS/Project level in the above report.
Please suggest what could be the reason for this issue. Is any configuration needs to be done for this.
Thanks & Regards,
Vishal

Dear sir,
Thanks for the reply & sorry for late response from my side.
OPSV settings are already maintained in our system.
Some how i realized later that cost are actaully getting rolled to the WBS level, but we have observed one more discrepancy.
Example -
Production order "X" value - 100 ( as seen through co03)
Production order "X"value- 40 ( as seen through report s_alr_87013532).
We found that in report s_alr_87013532 , although my total producton order value of 100 is represented at the WBS /Project level, but at the production order level , it is showing value of 40.
On further analysis we found that for production order X
Materail cost- 60
Labour cost-40
The material cost of 60 is not getting fetched against production order "X" in report " S_ALR_87013532".
There are very few cases , where such discrepancy is seen.
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
Vishal

Control for delivery from projects

Hi
Is there any way we can control the delivery of components from projects CNS0 using User statuses.
The components in project stock should not be delivered until the User status permits it.
Kindly advise.

Hi,
Please create a user status with business transaction "Goods Issue Delivery" as forbidden , and assign the status to the WBS element.
It should work. I have not tried it out though.

Document number of Planned cost booked on Project system

Hi All,
I have a requirement wherein i need to find out the document number of the cost booked in Project and WBSE. Like for eg in Report S_ALR_87013532, there is planned cost.
also in the same report S_ALR_87013532, we have OVERALL VALUES and TOTAL OF YEARS. What is the difference between the two ?
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Ajay

Overall is derived from the Overall values planned for the project (at the overall level) - look at config of your planning profile - transaction OPSB.
Total of Annual is the sum of the all annual values planned for the project.
To get the document number, you will need to go to the line items. To go there, select the WBS element or whichever level you want to drill down to and then goto menu Goto -> Line items. You will be given a list of line items available (actual, plan, etc...). Once you get in there, you should be able to select the "Document number" field from the available fields or click on the "Document" item to view the posting document.

Cost planning for a project

Hi Experts,
Can anybody tell is there is any t-code to mass change of the cost planning for a project. If there is a t-code please explain me the procedure how to do it.
Thanks & Regards
Raman T S

You can budegt a project by:
1. Transferring the values in the cost planning as budget.
2. Entering the budget directly into the WBS element.
PS STD cycle of creating Project is as follows:
1. Creating the Project in the Project builder
2. Using the relationships to link the activities
3. Planning the output & duration of activities
4. Sceduling the Project
5. Planning Costs
6. Allocating budget
7. Releasing the Project for execution
Choose Original Budget.
In the Planned total column, you see the values copied from cost planning.
Select the planned total column.
Choose Edit ® Copy view.
Percentage rate-100
Overwrite- Select
In the dialog box, enter the following data:
The system copies the values from cost planning into the budget.
Hope ur prob will be solved

Project plan cost

Hi
We are working with Project system and we trigger project from Sales order.
We are using Assembly order for this purpose.
When we are looking at plan cost of the project, cost is directly picked up from the material instead of referring to WBS BOM and production lot cost estimate.
When we are creating project manually cost is picked up correctly from the WBS BOM.
Do we need to do any special setting for cost when we are triggering project from the sales order??

I think you might be using the Sales document as cost object in your configuration. For your requirement, you should use the Project as the cost object. Please check the account assignment category in the requirements class. It should be D (projects).
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Ajinkya
