VOFM - to create a formula / routine

Hi,
Could someone write a sample formula for pricing to read Gross Price from the sales order and pass it on to a variable.
Also if this variable can be read from the alt cond base value.
Or if any link to documentation where I can read some info on VOFM and related paths / steps.
Thanks very much for the help.

Hi,
Take a look at SAP Note 327220 (and subsequent related OSS Notes). It is an explanation of function "Maintain: Requirements and Formulas", which is also known as "VOFM".
Here are a few links which I think might be of interest to you:
1. SD QUATATION CREATE WITH REFERENCE PROBS
2. VL10 (VL04) problem
3. This is the best thing for you to do, I guess:
when you go to the transaction VOFM, you will just be seeing a blank screen with some menus at the top. Right? Now just select an of the menu items , Let us say Data- Transfer->Deliveries. You would see a screen with a table and an icon for documentation. Just read that documentation.
Furthermore, this documentation has hyperlinks which will actually take you to the corresponding node in the IMG where the particular activity is performed. And you can get further information from the IMG.
Reward points if this is helpful.

Naveen.

What is the Procedure to Create "Condition Value" Routine Using VOFM

Dear Guru,
I want to know Step-By-Step Procedure to Create "Condition Value" Routine Using VOFM.
Give me guideline how it will link to program RV64ANNN.
and if it doesnot link to RV64ANNN
what might be the possible reason and how to make it link with RV64ANNN.

Dear Guru.
I have encountered a technical issue related to Creation of User Routine for pricing procedure
(Routine :: RV64A978).
Before coming to issue I want to give you slight glance on my requirement.
I have got two requirements to write two routines for a new condition type -->> packing type .
>>Routine Number One First I Have wrote Requirement Routine         RV61A943
Routine Number two  Other I Have wrote calculate condition value  RV64A978
So as usual normal procedure of writing a routine I followed VOFM for writing routine for pricing procedure and routine for calculation (condition value).
I performed above respective process for both routines in VOFM.
And I have activated both routine from going VOFMMenu bar edit  Activate.
After activation automatic include is generated in both case .
INCLUDE RV61A943 . "FAMD PAckage Wt
Is generated in RV61ANNN
INCLUDE RV64A978 . "FAMD Package-Rate
Is generated in RV64ANNN
In case of Routine  RV61A943
I can able to find the main include routine RV61ANNN from where used function in SE38 and able to trace it.
And I am able to find it in the lists of Includes of RV61ANNN.
But In case of Routine  RV64A978
I can not able to find the main include routine RV64ANNN from where used function and able to trace it. Pls refer below picture.
But in RV64ANNN it is showing that routine RV64A978 is there 
So Guru I want to know following things >
1.     What might be the main reason in case of RV64A978 ??
2.     How I should approach to solve this issue??
Because what I understood unless routine RV64A978 is traceable from u201Cwhere usedu201D to find out its main routine RV64ANNN , the routine RV64A978 wont work in pricing procedure (I believe).

Creating Pricing Formula

Hi All,
I need to create a pricing formula ( through txn VOFM ) but i have a doubt regarding type of formula that i should use. In txn VOFM there are following type of conditions based upon which we can create a formula:
1) Scale Base
2) Condition Base Value
3) Condition Value
4) Structure of Grp Key
5) Rounding Rules
Can you please provide some documentation or explanation on these five types so that i can choose according to my requirement.
It's Urgent.
Thanks in Advance

VOFM-requirements, data transfer, formulas

Hi experts,
I am now learning how to create pricing procedure. The part that remains still unclear to me is the requirement part. I tried to find some documentation of it but failed. I want to a systematical understanding about how pricing procedure works with the requirement, which conventions the requirement (VOFM: also data transfer,formulas) has, and how can I create my own requirement, data transfer and formulas.
Does anyone know any good documentation on subject?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Fan

Hi Prasad ,
thank you very much for your reply.
This is indeed what I need. However, this is only the VOFM part 1. Do you have the link to part 2, 3, 4? I think there will be four parts of this documentation. Each specifies one subject regarding VOFM: copying requirements, data transfer,
requirements, and formulas.
Best regards,
Fan

Creating a formula for the Header to evaluate each record in Detail

I want to create a formula that notifies the user in the Header if there is a certain value in the report detail. I was able to create the formula but it only gave me the correct message when the 1st record in the detail had the value. Is there a way for it to read ALL records and if any of them have the value, to display the message?
Example:
Formula in Header: if ({@Total}>1) then "ERROR"
There are about 500 {@Total} fields in the detail and my formula only looks at the 1st one in the list.

Hi Shannyn,
There is this in-built faility provided by Crystal Reports called as 'Alerts'.
This will help you meet your requirment.
For more information on functionality / Creation of Alerts, please go to Crystal Reports Help and search for 'Alert'. You will find it very helpful.
Hope this helps.

Unable to create a formula on iPad and iPhone

I'm able to create a formula (like =DATEDIF) using Numbers on my MacBook, but can't get it to work using Numbers for iOS.
It says in the manual (in the app) that you can just touch the formula you want to use, but that doesn't seem to work here
When I touch DATEDIF in the list, I go straight to the explanation of this function, the formula refuses to be activated.
Moving a spreadsheet through iTunes from the Mac to the mobile units works OK.
That document functions then fine when I change a date in one of the cells that the formula uses on the iPad - but I can't create a similar formula in iOS.
It's probably something simple that I don't see, so I would be grateful if one of you could point me in the right direction

OK, now I've tried again...
And all of a sudden, it works!
When trying again (opening the list where you find the formula), the app switched its language (the iPad uses Norwegian as default, the app was using English).
What caused this, I don't know
But, most important: now the app behaves as it should

For the Datas in the column:
Start Date:
=[Sales revenue] Where([Month]=ToNumber(UserResponse("Enter Month(Start):")))
End Date:
=[Sales revenue] Where([Month]=ToNumber(UserResponse("Enter Month(End):")))
I got the Report format as i required

Creating a formula using a alphabetic drop down list?

I am creating a work sheet using formulas and drop down list. I have one drop down list that has a list of name and the second list is a list of letter that correspond to those names. (ex: column "J" on line "4 - 29" there is the letter
"A-Z" and then continues , in column "K" line "4" starts the list of names. In Cell B4 is the drop down list of names in column "K" to choose from, I would like the letter that corresponds to that name automatically
be put into cell A4, how do I create the formula in cell A4?

Hi Tina,
According to your description, please following these steps:
With your sample as shown in the following figure, select range “J4:K29”, and click
FORMULAS-Defined Names-Create from Selection, and check
Right column.
Then, use the enter formula in A4 “=INDIRECT(B4)”.
And I upload a TEXT.xlsx file on OneDrive, you can download this file via this link:

Create a formula based on another cell

I would like to create a formula which gives a total/percentage based on the content of another cell.
For example, if A3 contains text "apple", then multiply A7 * 5%; If A3 contains "banana", then multiply A7* 3% and so on.
I have tried using the 'IF' and 'IF-true' functions to no avail.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

How do I create a formula to convert words to numbers?

Hi,
Basically my spreadsheet is almost entirely words and as numbers (or excel for that matter) work with words (although this I have suggested as an improvement), I need to convert all the words to numerics.
For example. I have a question with a drop down asking for male or female (I've done drop down lists as I want to cross analyse the results at a later date). I need to create a formula so that numbers automatically counts up all the males and females and puts them in another overall table. I guess I do this by creating a formula for numbers to turn all 'males' into 1 and all 'females' into 2, then ask numbers to count up all the 1's and 2's and put them in a table?
Here are a couple of images which may or may not explain it further:

Wasn't how to "automatically count up all the males and females" already answered in my first post to your question How do I create a graph in numbers? The coloured text is a link to that thread.

Is it possible to create a formula that converts a resource hours into full time units in project server 2010

Hi
Is it possible to create a formula that converts a resource available hours into full time equivalent units in project server 2010? Say a resource has 160 available hours for any given month this will translate into 1 FTE for this month. If it is 80 hours
for that month then it will be 0.5 FTE and so on and so forth.
Thanks,
-Maurizio

Maurizio,
It's a bit late, but there are two OLAP cubes that can provide you with this information in a pivot table in Project Server 2010.
"MSP_Portfolio_Analyzer" and "Resource Timephased" contains capacity measures that be used to provide calculated measures when the cube database is generated. You change OLAP cube configuration in "Server Settings -> Database Administration -> OLAP
Database Management". In either of the aforementioned cubes, use "Calculated Measures" to create two measures:
Member Name
MDX Expression
Available (FTE)
([capacity]-[work])/[capacity]
Work (FTE)
[Work]/[Capacity]
These two fields will appear in the pivot table field list as "Values", and when combined with a "Time" column, can give you a picture of FTE usage and availability.
I prefer the portfolio version since it contains project/assignment data and resource data, letting you see just how resources are being utilized.
One thing I have not been able to get around is getting ""Maximum Units" for a resource factored into the measure. A common practice is to allocate more that "100%" to generic resources to represent teams for planning purposes. The OLAP measures will show
only 0.0 to 1.0 FTE for any resource, even if a resource represents more than one body.
If you have an SSRS query you could share, I would appreciated it!
Hope this helps!

Creating a formula

I need to create a formula in a field that will give a reply between 1 and 5 depending on the measurement contained in another field example number in field 1200mm I need to return the answer 2. Can any one help with that?

virginnumbers wrote:
In one Field I wish to place a measurement and the answer in a seperate field ranges are:-
from 0 to 2133 mm answer =2
from 2144 mm to 3352 mm answer =3
from 3353 mm to 4267 mm answer =4
from 4268 mm to 5600 mm answer =5
Thank you for taking the time to look at this problem with me.
LOOKUP should do it.
I've assumed you meant "from 2134 mm to 3352 mm answer =3" in the second line.
The formula for C2 is =LOOKUP(B6,$F$2:$F$6,$G$2:$G$6)
