Urgent - Planning book -DP

Hi APOgurus,
I am new to APO, need to know where the planning APO book is used.
My requirement is to get all the location information based on the selection profile, can anyone please provide me the details on how to go ahead with the requirement.
Thanks in advance.

Planning book is used to view the data that is used for forecasting in the desired time buckets against the respective Key figures(defined in the Planning Area) and for the required selection (characteristics - defined in the MPOS).
For knowing the location characteristic for a particular selection profile. Do the following double click on the chosen selection profile and then when some data appears then press the selection window to see what locations have been selected under the location characteristic.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Ankur

Urgent Help with Planning Book

Hello Gurus,
Need your help with a very urgent issue. I cannot see my key figure values in my planning book(Interactive Planning). I could sucessfully generate my CVC, then initialised my planning area. Then when I go the interactive planning I can see all my characteristics -Ex Material master( has all values), Prod type has values, etc. Iam in DEV system and have to move the whole config to QA now. I have to validate that the config works in QA. Its works ok in the sandbox but I cannot figureout why I can not see the values for key figs that Iam loading from a Flat File. Please help!!!!!!

Hello Suresh,
I have one more question for you. Let me tell you my scenario. I have the client giving me a rough forecast for the future. I have to do stat forecast based on the history and check that against the initial forecast given by them. But, the problem I realised now is that when I go to my planning books I can see the values for 2008 in mothly buckets since I have 0calmonth. But the client gave me another file with forecast for 2008 in monthly buckets and for 2009 and 2010 in quarter buckets. So, i have a planning buck profile defined to meet that but, how do I upload the file with both 0calmonth and 0calquarter in a single file. Please let me know!! Urgent task.
Thanks again,
Chinna.

Urgent!! How to update Planning book and change when planning will start

Hi Gurus,
I had configured the system and we can initilize planning area every month and my question is
1. How to update planning book and change planning start date every month?
Thanks a Lot
Regards,
Raj

Hi,
In the planning book-dataview, you will assign the time bucket profile, and will be on rollling basis. if you want the forecast profile on rolling basis, maintain the forecast and history horizon as periods then that will also be on rolling basis.

Raj

Flat File upload into Planning Book

Hi all,
I want to upload the data into the Planning Book through "Upload Data" in Interactive Demand Planning. While saving data it is saving perfectly in .CSV file. While i made some changes in the Csv file and i have tried to load the data again into the Planning Book, the values are not coming perfectly. The period values are distributing to other periods.
For Ex:
                                                    01/2008    02/2008
Adjusted Statistical Forecast Qty   613,456     756,456
I have saved the data in a .csv file and made changes to the values like 613,457 and 756,460 like that and saved the changes. But while coming into the Planning Book it is coming like this
01/2008     02/2003 03/2008 04/2008
613            456        756        456
but i need to shoe the values as like as i uploaded data.
Any one pl suggest me what are the changes/ prereuisites i have to take in this particular scenario.In the mean time it is very urgent.

You mentioned that "I made some changes in the CSV file." in your first message. What software did you use? A text editor? A spreadsheet program? A database program?
I usually inspect the downloaded file first using Microsoft Notepad or similar. See what character is being used as the delimiter, and see what characters (if any) are being used to indicate a string field. This format will probably be what SAP will expect during the upload.
I usually edit CSV files in Microsoft Excel if they are not too big.
If you are using Excel, you should also heed the advice of Sean Mawhorter. Make sure your version of Excel is using the proper delimiter when it exports to CSV. Various versions commonly found in Europe use "." as default. For that matter, SAP may be expecting something other than a comma as a delimiter. There is no universally accepted industry standard for CSV format.
Once you have exported to CSV, again inspect the file to ensure that the format matches the downloaded format.
There is a basic primer on CSV files in Wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values

Upload data from Excel to the Planning Book

We are on APO 5.1. We have APO DP at the moment. I wanted to test upload of data from Excel to the planning book. I have tried several times. I have been unable to see any changed data in the planning. I do not get ANY errors during the upload. But I cannot see any changes that I made in the excel in the planning book. Please let me know what I am doing wrong. These are the step that I follow.
1. Go to planning book.
2. Short list only one key figure e.g Customer Forecast.
3. Go into Details All mode.
4. Download the file using the "Prepare File for Upload" option.
5. Open the saved Excel.
6. Change the values in the excel , save and close.
7. Upload the excel into the planning book using the upload file option.
I do not get any errors during all these steps. However, when I check to see if the values have been updated, the changes made in the excel are not updated in the planning book.

Hello,
Instead of selecting one key figure in data view, please select all key figures of the planning book and then try all the steps which you have carried out.
please revert after you carry out this.

Prafulla

Key figure display in planning book with respect to Time bucket profile

Hi,
I am loading a key figure to planning area from the info cube for the current month. When I review the key figure in planning book with monthly time bucket profile it shows 85 for the current month. In the same planning book with weekly bucket profile, it shows 55 from the current week and future weeks and the remaining 30 goes into the past weeks of the current month.
How to make the total quantity 85 to show in the current and future weeks only.
thanks and regards
Murugesan

Hi Murugesan,
Within the Planning Area, the data is stored at the lowest level granularity that you maintain in storage bucket profile. Then during display, system will decide what data to show depending on what kind of time bucket profile you use in the planning view, and the time based disaggregation that you maintain for Key Figure.
In this below case, what time characteristic do you have in cube? Is it date, week or month?
If it's date, check how much KF data is maintained on the dates which belong to week which has days both in this month/last month e.g. if I talk about Dec 2011, how much data is stored 1,2,3 & 4 th of Dec, 2011.
This data would appear in Dec in monthly view, but in week, it would appear in the week starting 28th November.
If data is maintained in cube in weeks, then you need to calculate how time based disaggregation would show it to you in months.
If it's months, then you would need to find out how much data would go to the days in the past week of the month.
The time based disaggregation may be causing you some issues, but in that case, I would not expect 30 out of 85 to go in the past week, unless you have data in cube in days.
Data shown in weekly view for week starting 28th Nov should ideally be a small proportion of 85, unless you are using a time stream/fiscal year variant, due to which most of December is in holidays. The only other exception I can think of is that you have data in teh days mentioned above.
It would be best to help the business understand this disaggregation logic, rather than thinking of manipulating the data to shift to a later week.
If this logic doesn't explain your situation, then please provide the date/week/month at which you have data in cube, and what quantity.
Thanks - Pawan

Excel upload data to planning book not working

Hello Gurus,
i have checked the online resources first before posting this thread here as this is most old topic relating to upload of excel data to planning book key figures.
Here is what i have done so far
1) from the planning book, i chose a view and downloaded the file to desktop and saved it as CSV. i populated the key figure values and saved the csv file as-is back to desktop
2) i had to remove the hdeader from the file as APO threw back an error that it could not interpret the period (header) as the number
3) when i took out the header i simply pasted the values and the file was ok
4) i went to planning book, loaded the file, checked the file and it said that the data was read and i clicked on upload the file
5) everything was green, then but i do not see the values in the grid of the planning book
what else i'm missing.
can someone please help me
thanks
Ravi

Hello DB and Ada. Thank you for your valuable suggestions. I know i might be missing something silly here. If i keep the header that i downloaded from the planning book into csv file, i get an error while uploading the file back to planning book that unable to interpret 11/2014 as a number.
P11/2014 is the header, Period 11/2014 is the fiscal period. we plan in fiscal periods.
if i take out the header from the csv file and just populate the key figure values, then i do not get any error when i load the file back to planning book, but then the values do not show up in the planning book grid.
i'm keeping the planning book in the change mode while uploading the file as i got that error saying that i need to keep the planning book in change mode for the file to load data properly to planning book.
Thanks
Ravi

Meaning of CONDET key figure in standard 9ASNP94 APO SNP planning book

I am trying to clarify the use and meaning of the CONDET (capacity consumption details) key figure in the SAP standard SNP planning book 9ASNP94.
Any advice appreciated...

Hi Frank,
This indeed is practical requirement wih no simple solution ( at least we did not find).
We created a background job for deletion of the stocks ( which were updated through IDOCs like your situation) at specific periodicity. The jobs were made as per planners with specific variants and when planner would like to delete the stocks, the job will be run.
Another option could to be copy the standard program /SAPAPO/RLCDELETE to a module program and check validation at the input screen, before calling the deletion program.

Hello Debadrita,
Function Module BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL2 or BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL can help you.
For BAPI BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL, the parameters are:
1) PLANNINGBOOK - the name of your planning book
2) DATA_VIEW - name of your data view
3) KEY_FIGURE_SELECTION - list of key figures you want to read
4) SELECTION - selection parameters which describe the attributes of the data you want to read (e.g. the category or brand). This is basically a list of characteristics and characteristic values.
BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL2 is very similar to BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAI but is only available from SCM 4.1 onwards.
For the complete list of parameters, you can go to transaction SE37, enter the function module names above and check out the documentation.
Please post again if you have questions.
Hope this helps.
