Use of ECC planningtime fence when planning with APO SNP

I am using SAP ECC for execution, and SAP APO SNP heuristics for planning.
So, for a product planned in APO, the MRP type in ECC is X0.
So, as there is no MRP planning in ECC for such a product, what is the use of the ECC planning time fence? I think it becomes redundant in ECC - yes? In fact, I do not see it in the stock reqs list (MD04).
So, in ECC, all that 'planners' can do is to manually reschedule planned/production orders - yes?
Any shortage alerts will only be visible in APO - yes?
Thanks for any advice on this...

Hi
Please find below the answers from my side.
Two questions in my mind...
So, if MRP type = X0 in ECC, the planning time fence is not seen in MD04.
First of all, we should not have any planning time fence in ECC, as it is not adding any value for products with MRP type X0. Yes in MD04  we can not see it.
2. How can ECC users easily distinguish between planned orders which are in the 'short term' from those which are beyond the SNP production horizon?
I think they have to use APO alerts. I think that should be right approach as APO is leading planning tool.
Thanks

  • Can system consider the unrestricted stock when planned with MD50???

    Hi,
    We have scinerio where FERT with Strategy 20 (MTO Process) is planned with MD50 against the sale oder. Every time Dependent items stock needs to be posted with Movement type 412E against that sale order or else dependent items stock though available in unrestricted is shown as unable against that sale order no. Enitre cost of the FERT material is accounted against sale order number.
    Can we avoid posting of sales order stock?? can we make system to consider the unrestricted stock when planned with MD50.
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    John

    if u want to consume the unrestricted stock, why u implemented MTO??
    what was the requirement to implement MTO, when u r asking such question in support............
    check first requirement of the client.......if u think they need to consume unresc stock...i will say...implentation was very poor,

  • Importing to iMovie: How do I use an external usb mic when recording with the built-in FaceTime HD Camera?

    Hello all
    I'm scheduled to work with a friend this week; I'm going to help him make a simple audition DVD.  I promised him I had the necessary equipment and such.
    I was importing from the webcam using iMovie.  If I can't use my external mic to record for the video, there is more involved in the editing process.   I was hoping to record the video and audio into one package.  I'm using the built-in FaceTime webcam on my macbook pro and a ZoomH1 on usb.
    I've tried changing the audio in system preferences: input to H1.  This works when recording with audacity or anything else.  I even changed the input on FaceTime to H1.  There aren't any preferences I can find in iMovie to change the input for importing video directly from the webcam.
    How do I change the audio input for direct import on iMovie?   
    OR
    Is there something else I can do to have HD video and HQ audio captured in one video file on my macbook pro?
    I suppose I can record the video and audio separately but that is usually much more involved.  This is why I got this usb microphone lol.
    Thanks in advance,
    -Seth

    I just found using QuickTime Player to record a movie works great.  I can easily change the audio input.  iMovie is silly. lol
    If I missed anything let me know.
    Thanks

  • Planning with APO

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a question regarding APO and BI Integrated Planning. If we are using APO DP is it a good option to implement BI Integrated planning as well. because both of them have the same planning and forecasting strategies. Is BI Integrated Planning and alternate option for APO DP or can it be used along with APO DP for planning on certain reports. Thank you very much for your time.

    Hi Akshay27,
    I have personnally never use the BI integrating planning, but based on my knowledges; hopefully somebody with more experience in this area will be able to complete this answer!
    Integrated planning indeed allow to realised more and more planning using BW infrastructure. The very big advantages is the user friendliness.
    However this does not exclude the use a DP. Both can be use together, for example DP for your power user and integrated planning for collaboration. DP will be the "master system" enabling you to maintain CVC, run complex statistical forecast, validate foecast.
    (I have seen a simialr implementation a couple of year ago using BPS).
    Note for exaple that the new functionality "customer forecast management" in SCM 7 use both DP and IP.
    You mentioned the possibilty to perform statistical calculation in IP... I haven't actually seen that, but I am not convince you will have the capacity of DP (seasonal planning, promotion, like profile... MLR, POS forecast...), If you know more, please let me know.
    I hope this help a bit; now if somebody could provide more information about IP, that would be great!
    Thanks and Regards

  • How do I use more than four PDOs when working with NI-Industr​ial Communicat​ions for CANopen?

    When I call CANopen TPDO Create.vi to create TPDO objects I can only input PDO1 through PDO4. How do I work with more than four PDOs?
    I see the other forum thread using an older version of CANopen, but it does not appear to directly translate into the newer NI-Industrial Communications for CANopen.
    http://forums.ni.com/t5/Automotive-and-Embedded-Ne​tworks/PDOs-on-a-CANopen-network/m-p/405001?requir​...

    Hi wireman,
    A good resource for CANopen is available here.  That page explains that typically in the CANopen standard, there are only 4 predefined PDOs in each direction (transmit and receive).  To use extra PDOs, additional configuration is required.  The configuration of the predefined PDO Channels refers to the COB-ID that they are linked to by default.
    According to the LabVIEW help files, the COB-ID is 'calculated' by adding the value of the PDO Channel and the Node ID, if the COB-ID is zero.  However, if the COB-ID is explicitly defined, then LabVIEW will ignore the calculation provided by the Node ID and PDO Channel.  So, if you need more than the four PDOs, you'll need to use the COB-ID input to differentiate which channel is being referenced.
    I hope this clears some things up, and please don't hesitate to ask for more advice.

  • I am unable to use the Live View function when working with JavaScript in Dreamweaver.

    I am currently trying to set up my own website with dreamweaver and am very familiar with Java and JavaScript. However, whenever I try to use the Live View function it never lets me. Additionally, I am unable to preview my work in a browser as the option to do so is greyed out.
    However, I have noticed that when using html in a project, all these functions are available. Any ideas how I can be able to use these functions?

    Is it possible you meant to say you were "very unfamiliar with Java and javascript" in your initial post?
    Javascript doesn't do anything without an html page to affect.
    Java and javascript are not the same thing, they're really not even related other than browsers can be made to render both. Java is its own programming language while javascript is basically html's helper monkey. I don't think it's even feasible to "understand javascript" without knowing html. My last post still stands, if you are coding javascript, you need an html based page to turn it into anything but plain code to a browser, so the option to view it will never come up. When you preview the page it's attached to, it will function correctly (as long as it has been attached to the page correctly).
    Java on the other hand can create programs that run without a browser at all and I've never gotten close to touching that monster.
    You may need to explain what you're trying to do and post the code here to get the help you need.

  • Measure using UseRelationship not working well when sliced with attributes from the same table

    Hi,
    I have Measure created using the 'UseRelationship' Function, which uses a different datekey to link to the DateDim than the one the table is directly related by. The measure works as expected except in one scenario.
    If I browse the measure using an attribute from the same fact table then the attribute is filtered using active relationship whereas the measure is filtered using the inactive relationship as shown below:
    FACT(2 rows)(Active Relationship to Date using DateKey1)
    SNo     DateKey1     DateKey2     Geo        Amt
    1         20100101     20120101    India      100
    2         20100101     20120101    US         200
    AmtMeasure:=CALCULATE(SUM([Amt]),USERELATIONSHIP(FACT[DateKey2],'Date'[DateKey]))
    If I browse the above measure in excel, with Year selected as 2012, I get 100+200=300. Now if I drag the Geo attribute against the measure I get 2 rows with 100 and 200.
    If I do the same in a power view report I don't get any results after dragging the Geo attribute, whereas I get the correct value of 300 without the geo attribute. I checked the DAX query which the power view generates and figured this is being caused because
    there are no rows in the table with DateKey1 having year 2012. I understand why this is happening this way in a DAX query and not in MDX, but shouldn't both behave in the same way and what is a work around.

  • Different family class used for input  and output when working with sockets

    I have seen more or less everywhere the following code to open a socket and to receive input and send output through it:
    Socket server = new Socket("anyservername", 25):
    OutputStream out = server.getOutputStream();
    PrintWriter pout = new PrintWriter (out, true);
    pout.println("Hello");
    InputStream in = server.getInputStream();
    BufferedReader bin = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(in));
    String response = bin.readLine();
    What I do not understand is:
    Why the BufferedReader needs InputStreamReader as an argument whereas printwriter does not want the OutputStreamReader as an argument but it is OK with just the OutPutStream?
    I would tend to believe that they should be more or less at the same level and use the same arguments?.
    In that sense if I use BufferWriter instead of PrintWriter I bet It should be OK the following code?:
    OutputStream out = server.getOutputStream();
    BufferedWriter bout = new BufferedWriter (out);
    String myOut = bout.writeLine();
    Cheers

    1. Does it even compile?
    2. While there is a fair amount of symmetry between reader and writer classes, don't assume it's exhaustive. Your best friend is the API:
    [http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/]
    3. Those were just examples. Code it the way you feel is best. I would specify charsets to make sure the encodings were platform independent. Networking and all that, don't you know...

  • Can't open app store in itunes when connected with ipad

    Hi. Could anybody tell me how I can use app store in itunes when connected with ipad 2? When I click app store, it just gives no response at all. Thanks a lot!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Do you have the power cable in, it won't show up with the power cable in.
    Additionally, there have been some issues with the update servers, it's possible you won't be able to complete the update procedure anyway.

  • I am trying to download the new episode of Game of Thrones on my iPad. We are currently travelling in Italy and have an unlimited pre- paid data plan with the Italian carrier Wind.  When I try download the episode through iTunes I get an error message

    Hi there, traveling through Italy with my iPad. Purchased a unlimited prepaid data plan with Italian carrier WIND.  Has been working excellent, but when I try to download a new episode of Game of Thrones, I get an error message which says that I have to connect to a wi fi network or download the episode on my MacBook.  Why can't I download using the microsim and prepaid data plan?  Any help will be great thank you!

    Unfortunately downloads larger than 20mbps require wifi due to most carriers having data limits. This "requirement" keeps people who are not familiar with data and what takes up a lot of data from going over.

  • Statistical Forecast not saved when generated with background planning job

    Hello All,
    The system I am working on is SCM 5.0 Support pack 15.
    When I execute the planning job in the background to generate a statistical forecast, the job completes sucessfully, I have a spool that shows the forecast profile was executed (Auto Mod 2) with the appropriate model messages and the last two messages are 'Data saved successfully' and 'No data has been changed; data must not be saved', but when I go into interactive planning to view the forecast, there is no forecast in my key figure.
    My planning area has the forecast settings maintained for Statistical Forecast, Corrected History, and Ex-Post Forecast key figures.  My forecast profile is looking at the History key figure and Statistical Forecast key figure.  My time series has been initialized for 36 months of History and 18 months of forecast.  My planning book is set to have the Statistical Forecast Key figure as output only.  My activity and planning job are set to execute in the appropriate planning book (in order to see the forecast alerts I have selected) with the specific selection profiles (no navigational attributes), and the aggregation level set (no navigational attributes).
    The only way for me to see a forecast is to change the Statistical key figure setting in the planning book to output/input, execute the forecast job in the background, and then go into interactive planning.  Am I missing something?  Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Roxane H.

    Hello Senthilrajan,
    I have executed the forecast in the foreground using the same planning book as the background job and same forecast profile (Auto Model 2)with a selection from the batch run (pulled a selection from the spool list) and it generated a forecast with the same messages as my background job except for the last two lines (Data saved successfully and No data has been changed, data must not be saved) that I was able to copy back into interactive planning.  I then used this selection in the background job to execute the forecast in the background and did not see a forecast in interactive planning and received the same messages as before -
    Data saved successfully
    No data has been changed, data must not be saved
    The reason we run the forecast in this book is to allow our Demand Planners to view the forecast alerts by book and/or selection directly in interactive planning instead of having to get their from the Alert Monitor.  It has worked in the past and is currently working in the same environment just with a different planning book, selections, forecast profiles, and data.  It generates a forecast with no 'No data has been changed, data must not be saved' message and the forecast is written in the key figure and is viewable in interactive planning with out manipulating the key figure to be input/output (it is set to output only).
    Any further assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

  • Have family plan with 250 data which I almost use each month.  Going on vacation and will be on the road for two weeks.  Should I up my data for a month then change back.  Is it worth it or should I just run over and pay the extra 15 per gig?

    Hello mlazaretti. Vacation time is awesome. (Especially a road trip!) Since you will be going out for two weeks, you never know if having extra data may come in handy. I highly recommend switching to the next tier up so this way you have more data. This way it is only $10.00 more versus $15.00, and you dont have to worry about overages. Then change back at the start of the next billing cycle.
    If you need help making this change let us know! Have a safe trip!
