Urgent !! DP Planning area design

Hi Gurus,
             Client have different businesses and trying to do DP for each business and also central planning .
1. i am trying to keep one planning area for all the business.
Q.My question is can i keep one planning area for all the different business?
Q2. I  have same material number but different location for different business
and my question is  there any problem if i do consensus forecast for i business material and does it effect to another business materaial number as we all are in one planning area?
Please let me know
Thanks a Lot
Regards,
Raj

Hi Raj,
There isn't a problem, you can have all data in one planning area, but it is important to do selections in order to have vision of which combinations are from which business.
You also could use a navigational attribute for your location characteirstic, this attribute can show from which business is that location. But if you use a navigational attribute, you must not use characteristic 9ALOCNO, because this characteristic is used by other modules like SNP who doesn't support navogational attributes.
I hope this can help you.
Regards.

  • Urgent - 'Distribute' Function is reffering to wrong planning area

    Dear Consultants
    I have problem with 'Distribute with Key' function.
    I am using Actuals cube and Planning cube in my multiplanning area.  I like to distribute planned quantity from material level to sales office level. No selections for planning area, year and verion at planning level or package.
    In the Distribute function, I am using Sales Office characteristics as field to be changed and Planning Area,Year, Version characteristics as Fileds for condition. I am restricting the planning area to my planning data and year and version to planning year and version in the function.
    While executing this function, it selects data records from the Actuals Cube, ignoring the values set in the function for planning area, year and version.
    Please guide.
    Best Regards
    Shahid

    Hello,
    In case you don't want to work with your actuals cube for this function, I think you should select the area (and year, depending if you distribute on the same year or not...)in the planning level.
    I think that (please somebody correct me if I'm wrong) the data that is taken into account by your function is what is selected in the level, then, the function runs for its own (sub)-selection.

  • Planning area problem while running  URGENT Please

    Hi Gurus,
    We are near by golive and today our users found that they are not able to see the history data to some of the products.
    1,I had gone and checked the LISTCUBE and found the data is available in history cube for that product.Can anyone help me to solve this problem ?
    2.Another User is seeing double records in the order history data in planning book.Can any one help me with this issues?
    Is there any OSS note to see my planning area or any chances forming duplicates in planning area?
    I will be very thankfull to you guys if you please give me your kind suggestions
    Thanks a Lot
    Regards,
    Raj

    Hi Raj,
    you have to bring the history data from the BW-Cube to the LiveCache first. There is a standard report to do this. (sapapo/rtsinput_cube)
    If you have double values, then you have more than one request for the characteristic combinations in the cube. Make sure, that only one request is there.

  • Planning area transport issue - Urgent

    Hello Everyone,
    We are in SCM 5.1. In my planning area, there is already data and CVCs. When I make changes to the keyfigure disaggregation calculation type in the planning area and transport the changes from Dev to QA, all the CVCs and data in the QA system gets deleted. One thing to note here is that there is a message in the transport log - "No valid storage bucket profile exists". But that storage bucket profile exists in QA and I made sure to run the time series consistency check in Dev and QA before moving the transport.
    We opened an OSS message with SAP and they released 2 OSS notes and still after applying these 2 notes, the issue is not fixed. Supposedly in SCM 5.1, planning area changes could be transported to the target system without a data loss. Wanted to find out if anyone has come across this issue or if you had transported planning area changes after Go-Live without a data loss in SCM 5 or 5.1. I appreciate your quick reply to this message. Thanks.
    Regards,
    Mohammed.

    Hi,
    I need to run the report - RSDG_IOBJ_ACTIVATE for all the characteristics and keyfigures or just the keyfigures which I have changed in the planning area? Please note that I have changed only the disaggregation type in the planning area and not anything related to that keyfigure in RSA1.
    Do I need to run the report - RSDG_CUBE_ACTIVATE for the internal cube of the planning object structure?
    Please elaborate. Thanks.
    Regards,
    Mohammed.

  • Planning area data not matching with backup cube / PSA

    Hi friends,
    while loading data from planning area to backup cube , for the key figure ( result of a macro),the data in planning area is not matching with PSA as well as with cube.
    At the same time Data is matching at total level but not at disagregated level. And many times it disagregate in equal Proportion in cube/psa.
    Pls its urgent.
    Pts for sure.
    Vishal.
    9326179903

    make sure you have replicated the extraction of the data source. This is needed to ensure your backup cube gets the current data as in the planning area
    if you got to /SAPAPO/SDP_EXTR then you can see this button
    you can set this up as a program scheduled to run before the updation of your cube
    As for the disaggregation, test at what level you are choosing your characteristic? ( i suppose you can choose the level)
    Are you extracting at a detailed level or at the aggregated level
    Is your macro saving the data into a Keyfigure or is it an auxilliary KF or something?

  • Getting data in GATP Planning area on open Sales Orders yet to be PGI'ed

    This is in context of allocation planning.
    I understand there are two internal GATP relevant key figures AEMENGE (allocation) and KCQTY (incoming sales order quantity) which come over from R3. These two key figures are part of any allocation planning design to track consumption of allocation from sales orders.
    We have a requirement to also get information on open sales orders not PGI'ed into GATP planning area. Is there a way to do this without configuring SNP and only core interface ? (Releasing data from SNP to GATP does not work since the levels are different)

    Hi
    Just to correct you. The tcode is LBWQ and not LBQW.
    Well as per your lines that it is not possible for 400 users to manually feed the data after changes .I totally agree.
    To help get the same functionality we have v3 jobs or direct delta which serves the same job for you.
    This is a job that runs at a regular interval as per you set it in the tcode LBWE.
    If the Datasource is Delta Enabled then only these jobs would be available to run for those data sources and if incase the DS is Full then you dont need these jobs at all.
    Thus once you set your DS as Delta. Go to LBWE select the DS you are working upon for delta
    After finding the DS you see two options update mode and update.
    Update mode -you can choose the type of update mode for example direct, queued and so on.. Generally we use Queued Detla
    Update - you have to set here how do you want it to run and from wat date etc.clickin on job control gives you a window where in u can set all the fields as per ur requirement.
    Once after these are done your job would automatically run and collect the changed records to the delta queue and from there you can pull the same using info pack.
    Hope that clarifies your doubt to some extent.

  • How to load the data from flat file ( ex excel ) to Planning area directly

    Hi all ,
    How can i load thedata fro m flat file directly to Planning area .
    PLease help me in this.
    Regards,
    Chandu .

    download one key figure data from planning book ( interactive damand plan) and made some changes and need to upload the data back to same planning book
    But, may I know why you are thinking of downloading, changing and uploading for just changing the figures for a particular key figure. You can do it in the planning book itself.
    However, not all the key-figures can be changed. But, what type of key-figure  you are speaking here? Is it like 'Forecast' for which the value is based on other key-figures, or is like a key-figure where some manual adjustments are to be done--so that it can be manually edited? However,  in both the cases, the data can be changed in the planning book only. In first case, you can change the values of dependant key-figures and in the second case, you can change the key-figures directly.
    And please note that you can change the values of the key-figures only at the detailed level. So, after loading the data in the book, use drill-down option, maintain the data at the detailed level, change the figures, and automatically, this gets reflected at the higher level.
    In case you are unable to change the values, go to the 'Design' mode of the book, right-click your key-figure, under "Selected Rows", uncheck "Output Only" option. In case you are unable to see that option, then you are not authorised to change that. See if you can change the authorisations by going to the "Data View" tab in planning book configuration (/n/sapapo/sdp8b), and change the value of Status to 3.
    Hope your query is answered with different solutions offered by many of the sdn colleagues here.

  • What should I do to create  an planning area?

    Hi everyone ,
    what should I do to create  an new planning area?
    best regards,
    David

    Hi Michael,
    I just want to understand, what we do in the "Supply Chain Design Master Data" in the view "Sites/Locations" to make the planning area active.
    Because we just enable the logistics area, the roles and usages.
    Apart from that we will bot be doing anything over there. Hence kindly clarify if i wrong.

  • Multiple person working on same planning area

    Hello,
    Can anyone please suggest how multiple people can work on same planning area at the same time. We are working on implementation project and our team has to work on different planning levels in the same planning area. But locking prevents us to achieve the same.
    Any ideas?
    Regards

    Hello,
    Regarding the change of the Area itself, it looks logic that two person cannot change its design at the same time.
    If I remember well if somebody is changing the Area, then everything is locked. But it is not the case if two person are working on separate Levels.
    A very important thing (correct me if I'm wrong) is that if you have been in change mode of an Area, Level, Package, etc... in your current BPS0 session, you will still lock it untill you get out of BPS0.
    Then, if in your team everybody knows on wich level they have to work and then don't go in change mode of other elements it should work (but not for the area because it contains all the subelements...).
    By the way, check also <a href="http://service.sap.com/~form/handler?_APP=01100107900000000342&_EVENT=REDIR&_NNUM=635244">Note 635244 - Locking transaction data in SEM-BPS</a>:
    <i>Two parameters are only designed to facilitate the Customizing process, if users
    carry out Customizing in transaction BPS0 within a project.
    o SEM_BPS_NO_LOCK: This parameter has the effect that transaction
    data is not locked at all. Never use this parameter in a production
    system. As of Support Package 14 for Release 3.1B, parameter
    SEM_BPS_NO_LOCK is released by an additional switch in table
    upc_dark2: For this purpose you have to maintain a record with
    param = ENABLE_NO_LOCK and value = X in table upc_dark2. Only then
    the system includes parameter SEM_BPS_NO_LOCK. The parameter can
    then be useful if you want to test functions or the manual planning
    with 'test data' in Customizing.
    o SEM_BPS_SAVE_UNLOCK: This parameter only works in transaction BPS0;
    it has the effect that the system unlocks data (if possible) after
    it has been saved. Therefore, the system only simulates an exit and
    reentry in transaction BPS0 with the last active detail
    application. Therefore, the above parameter can be helpful if many
    people work on Customizing in transaction BPS0, because objects can
    be unlocked earlier.</i>
    You can add these parmeters to a user id in the "Parameter"tab in T-Code SU01.

  • How to find out the corresponding planning area for a given infosource?

    Hi,
    We are in the process of implementing BW-APO in our project.
    We have got couple of standard BI infosources and now the task is to identify the corresponding planning area for a given infosource..
    Let' say for 0APO_DP_ORDERANALYTICS_1
    what is the planning area?
    Any help is appreciatable!!!
    Regards,
    Swapna.G

    Hi Swapna.
    You are at risk of putting the cart before the horse here. As Sujay asks, it is important to understand whether you are using the standard provided planning areas. Even then there are a number of different planning areas that may be deployed depending upon the required planning functionality. There then may be the case where standard planning areas are not being used (this is very often the case) which means that your InfoSources might only be good as a template.
    All this makes your question virtually impossible to answer.
    Maybe if you gave some background as to the status of your project we could help more.
    From your question it looks as if you are working on APO-BW outbound (i.e., reporting after the planning has taken place) which would suggest that the design and build of APO-BW inbound and the planning functionality has taken place. Is this the case?
    If so, then you need to touch base with your APO technical guys to understand the design of the planning areas and whether your standard 0APO_* InfoSources are suitable.
    If not, I suggest you are working back to front and you should be focussing on the APO-BW inbound required to support the planning requirements.
    Regards, Mark.

  • Out-Of-Band Management over IPSec and OSPF Area Design

    Hello,
    i'm planning to implement Out of band management over OSPF over IPSec Tunnel and i have a question about the OSPF area design (please see attached figure).
    As network administrator our NOC is sitting in OFFICE (OSPF Area 1). Internet access is guarenteed over our DCs (Multihomed BGP peering).
    Additionally we have a second internet access at OFFICE where i want to use for IPSec Tunnel and building a OSPF neighboring to our Out-of-Band Firewall, which they too have theire own internet access.
    I'm planning to declare this IPSec Tunnel as OSPF AREA 3 and AREA 4 respectively for DC1 and DC2. There are no subnet overlapping.
    My Question is if I should connect both areas 3 and 4 at OFFICE to the backbone area over a virtual-link or not? Would be an disadvantage if i wont use the virtual-link?
    Thx for any reply

    1.The AUX port on Cisco routers is either RJ-45 or DB-25. If the AUX port is RJ-45, use a flat-satin rolled RJ-45--RJ-45 cable (part number CAB-500RJ= ), which is usually provided with every Cisco router for console connections. You also need an RJ-45 to DB-25 adapter marked "MODEM" (part number CAB-25AS-MMOD) to connect the rolled cable to the DB-25 port on the modem.
    2. if your router has a DB-25 AUX port, use a straight-through DB-25Female - DB25Male RS-232 cable to connect the modem to the router.
    Use this document.

  • Planning area data not updated in infocube in APO system

    Hi all,
    User is uploading a flat file using addon program to an infocube 1, from this infocube data for  sales forecast KF is getting transferred to a planning area KF using standard program RTS_INPUT_CUBE.  I can see the updated data in Planning book (which refer the same planning area) data views. In planning book the sales forecast data is also getting copyied to second KF 'Arrangement FC' and its correct.
    Now there is a infocube 2 (second) which is getting data directly from this planning area (infocube also contains both KFs). But When i checked this infocube 2 , the updated data is availabe in Sales forecast KF , but arrangement forecast KF is having old data only and user is running query on second KF , so he is getting wrong report.
    Since there is no data flow for this infocube 2, and it is getting data from planning area, I feel its remote infocube.
    I have also found the datasource for this planning area but don't know how to move further to find why data is not updating properly? Please help on this.
    I have information that 2 weeks before data was properly updated, but this time data is not updated,
    system version  is SAP SCM 4.0

    Hi Vivek
    it is advisable to run the background jobs when the planning books are not being accesses by the users to prevent such inconsistencis. Hence i would advise you to run the jobs durng non-working hours. and if you have a global system, then you may restrict to run the jobs based on regional levels.
    in addition, it is also a good practice to run consistency jobs before and after your have completed the background jobs. i hope you are using process chains to execute the sequeuce of jobs. if yes, then you can add consistency check jobs in the process chains.
    some of the consistency check reports are :
    /SAPAPO/OM17 - liveCache Consistency Check
    /SAPAPO/TSCONS - Consistency Check for Time Series Network
    /SAPAPO/CONSCHK - Model Consistency Check
    and so and so forth..
    you can find these conssistency jobs under APO Adiminstration --> Consistency checks in APO.
    let me know if this helps.

  • Load from cube to planning area

    Hi,
    We are facing a problem in loading data from Cube to planning area, we need to distinguish between the Zero and the blank values in planning area when loading data from cube to planning area.
    Scenario is like this.
    For a CVC u2013A on day D I am having key figure value as blank and on D1 is Zero and on D2 is 2, I want the same to appear as my planning area data If I load this data to cube my day D value will appear as Zero  (but it was blank) and on D1 Zero and on D2 as 2 in cube.
    I am using Std T-code /SAPAPAO/TSCUBE to load data from cube to planning area, in std T-code we are having option of ignore Zero, if I use this it will also stops the actual zero value(which I need) on day D+1 to come in to planning area which I donu2019t want.
    I want my planning area data to be as blank on day D and Zero on D1 and 2 on D2 after loading data from cube to planning area..
    Can any one put some light and help me out from this issue.
    With regards,
    Sreerama

    Hi Seerama,
    I am not sure to understand completely the issue: do you have an issue in the cube or in the planning area?
    In order to differentiate a blank for a zero in the planning area, you need to set the flag "zero allowed" in the planning area settings. (in the tab keyfigure, click details, then for each key figure you can select or not the flag "zero allowed")
    When you load the data, you should indeed not flag "ignore zero value"
    If the issue you have is in your cube (between the file and the cube) then it is another matter...
    Kind Regards,
    Julien
