Offline doc : Business package for business unit analyst

Hi experts,
I'm looking for an offline doc for the business package "business unit analyst 2".
I've found the online doc <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/5e/083f403f0a9354e10000000a155106/frameset.htm">here</a>, but I want something offline, printable.
Does anybody knows where I can find that ?

Hi Sunil
Your point about the prerequisites lead me to the solution. The settings were wrong in Virtual Room settings in the Visual Administrator and the Collaboration Room Backend Properties in the portal. These need to be correct as a virtual room is created by the system when the planning round is created.

Downloading Business Package Business Unit Analyst

Hi All!..
I'm trying to download from SAP Service Marketplace the Business Unit Analyst Business Package, but when I open the zip that contains the package it only has an SCAN FILE, do any of you know what's happenning here? Do any of you has the actual version of this BPs...??
Thanks in advance!!!...
Maria

Hi Maria,
when you say scan file, do yo mean an file called BPERP4BUA0.sca? If so that is correct. In EP6, the archive files you import are SCAs. Just specify the sca file on the import screen when you go to bring in the BP.
Hope this helps.

Report of all sales orders for a business unit

I am analyzing revenue, and I would like to run a report that would list all sales orders and the value of those orders in a particular business unit.
I require the value of each and every sales contract during a certain period. Can I run a report that lists all sales contracts opened during a particular period?

Hello,
from the standard SAP menu, under: "Logistics --> Sales and Distribution --> Sales --> Information System --> Orders" you can find some transactions reporting sales orders lists, such as VA05 or SDO1, which perhaps could fit your requirements. Otherwise you can create a query to merge the tables containing the information that you need. As of my knowledge there's not an organizational level called "Business unit" in SAP, so you should check if in the transaction mentioned above the field you use to identify the "Business unit" is available.
Hope to be useful.
Best regards,

Error count based on business unit and Vehicle type

Hi,
i have a custom error idoc table which contains idoc no, business unit, vehicle type and error message.
Now here my requirement is to display the total count(Error count) of each message based on business unit and
Vehicle type and display it in the output list as shown below. what is the best way to achieve this as there will be number(atleast 6) of error messages available for a business unit based on vehicle type and there are around 15 business units overall for which i should display the error count.
buisness unit| Vehicle Type | Status | Error message                            |                   Error count

Hi,
Assign business unit level read access to your entity for which you have written the Report.
Assign the respective business unit to the user, in your case assign business unit Partner to user Partner
and  business unit Manager to user Manager
Also use filtered view in your report if it is SSRS report.

Questions on setting up PeopleSoft FIN AP Business Unit for India with TDS

Hi,
Does anyone here have some advice for me on how to handle AP transactions for a business unit set up for India with TDS (withholding) and statutory reporting.
We are configuring AP BU for India in our existing database which has other BUs for other countries not using withholding. For India the way we understood on statutory is that all invoices must be recognised for withholding at the time of invoice entry or payment which ever ealiest. For PeopleSoft we always have to create voucher before we can make mayment so the earliest occurace will be at voucher entry that withholding should be deducted (at voucher post).
The problem that we are encountering is that if we have prepayment invoice, we can use prepaid voucher to record this. However, when we receive the final invouce and entered into PeopleSoft the voucher post reversed the original withholding lines and recreate in the final invoice with final invoice amount. This could be in different period. As for the India rule the way we understood this is that the entries that created at prepaid should not be reversed, also those withholding might already be paid to the goverment in prior period before receiving the final invoice. The final invoice should have withholding calculate just for the difference of the invoice balance.
Our other problem is on the statutory reporting that all transactions should be recorded in that particular period. Our current setup has AP close period at the end of each month which means we cannot enter invoices raised in previous period or have adjustments put in the period that already closed.
Any help and advice on how companies that has India AP business unit deal with the above mentioned issues are much appreciated.
Thank you.

Thanks Marc Sachdeva.
I don't mean where to set up withholding. I have alredy configured all withholding details and everything works fine in AP.
However, as India statutory comes in, I'd like to know how other companies handle cases like accounting entries for transactions in specific period if your system has AP/GL closed periods. Normal cases would be put entries in the next accounting period. But as my understanding on the Indian rules is that withholding must be recorded at the time of entering the invoice. So how should adjustment be made.
Another thing is the prepayment invoices, using PeopleSoft Prepaid voucher would cause the accounting entries for withholding lines to be reversed and then re-recorded when posting the final invoice (that matches with the prepaid). I would like to know how companies are dealing with such case as the TDS lines could be revsersed and recalculate in different accounting period. Also if the period that it revsered the TDS % could have changed and when the reverse happens it will recalculate withholding based on the new rate for the whole of invoice amt.
For example an invoice of 10000 INR, 50% is to be recorded and paid in advance so raise the invoice of 5000 INR in Feb. TDS is 10%.
- So vendor will be paid 4500 and 500 is for withholding.
- In April then receive final invoice of 10000 INR, record into PS as 10000 but matched to prepaid so the remaining invoice is 5000. withholding rate in Apr is now 15% so 15% should be applied to the remaining invoice of 5000 INR. As the prepaid voucher option reversed withholding lines and recalculate with final invoice total so the withholding to be deducted is calculated at 15% = 1500 (10000 * 15%).
- As the prepaid invoice withholding might have already been paid in March before the rate changed, the final invoice should have withholding of 750.
I'm not sure if my understanding of recording withholding for India is correct and whether it really needs to be recorded in the month that invoice is raised. As the way I understood and have been told it has to be recorded in that month. I.e. invoice received on 30 April must be entered into accounting period of April. Our business close AP/GL about a week before the end of month so if we receive invoice on 30th April but our AP/GL already closed on 25th Apr then 30th Apr invoice should go to May accounting period. As statutury requirement is to record this into April. How does anyone handle this?
Thanks.

How to set up Pymnt Method for different business units

Hi,
Can anyone shed some light as to how to set up P Method in FBZP in a way that one type can be identified according to its Business Unit?
To clarify, FBZP is currently set up in a repeated way:
Pymnt Methods:
T - Transfer - Business Oil
S - Transfer - Business Engineering
V - Transfer - Business Equipment
A - Boleto - Business Oil
N - Boleto - Business Engineering
C - Boleto - Business Equipment
As you can see, we are repeating same payment method as it is needed for business to identify which business unit this refers to.
Is there a way of setting up only one type of Transfer and one type of Boleto and how this will categorize the type of Business Unit ??
Any input is welcome
Regards
Roger

Hi Roger:
How about some enhancement on F110? The logic would be something like read all the proposal lines, group by profit center and then re-assign the payment method based on profit center. There are couple of user exits available starting with RFFOX###, depending on the payment method and the program you using.
Something similar to substitution rules user exit.
Not sure if there is any other standard configuration to combine lines by profit center.
Thanks.

Track Purchases/payments Sales/Receipts for 2 business units in 1 OU

Hi,
We have one Operating unit and need to capture the liabilities/payables for 2 different business units. What approach can be undertaken to set up the liability account ?
Should we maintain 2 different liability accounts ?
If the same supplier deal with both business then at which point do we enter different liability accounts ?
How do we track the purchases made for each.
Kindly through some light.
Same is required for the AR side too.

Hi
2.On the Purcahsing side , when entering the po the users should put the BU value in the segment when entering non-inventory(expense) item . How about the inventory item purchase ?
Ans:You can use two separate Sub Inventories for each BU
3. Any ideas to overcome the inability to receive cash against BU ?
Ans: There is an Account Generator called AR: Substitute Balancing Segment: Replace Balancing Segment. Using the WF customization, I understand this could be possible. But it will not be supported by Oracle because before the receipt hits the Cash account it has to pass through several intermediary accounts like unapplied receipts, undentified receipts, Confirmation account, Remittance account On account receipt etc., Only R12 Subledger Accounting has the supported solution. If you are using Oracle Public Sector Financials, then there is a solution for this called Multi fund receipt in 11.5.10.
4. Just like we can setup different transaction types in AR, can we have some means to identify the purchase/invoices of the 2 different BU ?
Ans: You need to capture only through a DFF. But I feel this is not required when you run the AP Trial balance report, you need to specify the Liability account. So if you give in that as BU2, you are going to get only BU 2 related invoices and if you specify BU1, it is going to filter BU1 invoices only. If it does not happen also you can customize this report to filter in that way.
Hope this helps

Future support for using PL/SQL core business logic with ADF BC

We want to migrate our large Forms client/server (6i) application to ADF, possibly using a migration tool like Ciphersoft Exodus.
One scenario could be to use ADF BC and ADF-Faces or a different JSF-Implementation for presentation and business layer but keep our heavy PL/SQL-businesslogic inside the Oracle database in packages, triggers, functions and procedures.
This scenario could be chosen due to the huge amount of interconnected logic inside the database (10 years of development; no technical components; any package may access any table and more of this kind of dependencies). The business logic nowadays held in Forms client will be moved mainly into the database as a prerequisite to this scenario.
Choosing this "keep-logic-in-DB"-scenario we need a good support by ADF BC to do so. We know and prototyped that it is possible to call some PL/SQL via JDBC from ADF BC and it is possible to use stored procedure calls for standard business entity data access (ins, del, upd, ..). But this does not solve our problems. We want to reuse core business logic coded in PL/SQL. This is much more than change the ADF standard behavior for an update with an own PL/SQL-call.
Now my question:
Will there be a kind of sophisticated support to use ADF BC in combination with database-kept logic?
If so, when will this happen and how will the common problems of transactional state inside the database and inside the ADF BC be solved? Any plans or ideas yet?
Many other clients do have similar applications built in Forms and PL/SQL and would be glad to hear about a path of direction.
I've read the technical article 'understanding the ADF BC state management feature' which you have contributed to. One current limitation is pointed out there: Using PL/SQL with ADF BC limits ADF AM pooling to 'restricted level' which reduces scalability.
Are you aware of additional main problems/tasks to solve when using PL/SQL heavily with ADF BC, which we have to think about?
Thank you for any response.
Ingmar

My main problem is two 'concurrent' areas holding state in an application system based on DB-stored PL/SQL-logic in combination with ADF BC.
For a new System everything can be made ok:
Sure, it is possible to build a new system with the business logic included in ADF BC only. All long-living state will be handled in the BC layer ( including support for UnitsOfWork longer than the webside short HTTP-requests and HTTP-sessions and longer than the database transactions.
For an old system these problems arise:
1. DB data changes not reflected in BC layer:
Our PL/SQL-logic changes data in tables without notifying the ADF BC layer (and its cache). To keep the data in ADF BC entity objects identical to the changed database content a synchronization is needed. BC does not know which part of the application data has been changed because it has not initiated the changes through its entity objects. Therefore a full refresh is needed. In a Forms4GL environment the behavior is similar: We do frequently requeries of all relevant (base)tables after calling database stored logic to be sure to get the changed data to display and to operate on it.
-> Reengineering of the PL/SQL-logic to make the ADF BC layer aware of the changes is a big effort (notifying BC about any change)
2. longer living database transactions
Our PL/SQL-logic in some areas makes use of lengthy database transactions. The technical DB-transaction is similar to the UnitOfWork. If we call this existing logic from ADF BC, database state is produced which will not be DB-committed in the same cycle.
This reduces scalability of ADF BC AM pooling.
Example:
a) Call a DB-stored logic to check if some business data is consistent and prepare some data for versioning. This starts a DB-transaction but does not commit it.
b) Control is handed back to the user interface. Successful result of step a) is displayed
c) User now executes the versioning operation
d) Call another DB-stored logic to execute the versioning. DB-transaction is still open
e) Business layer commits the transaction automatically after successful finishing step d). Otherwise everything from a) to e) is rolled back.
-> redesign of this behavior (= cutting the 1to1 relation between LogicalUnitOfWork and the technicalDatabaseTransaction is a big effort due to the big amount of code.
