WBS element AND project

All,
This is my question.
1 WBS Element can be assigned to multiple projects ?
I have seen in table PRPS table WBS Element is only the key field , But it related PROJ using the field PSPHI .
In that case it means there will 1 WBS Element can be assigned to multiple projects ?

How to populate WBS element and Project definition in Additional Tab

Hi,
I have a 2 requirements
1) we need to populate WBS element and Project definition of an order in PM
IW 32 trasnaction (Additional data tab).
2)Also i need to program settlement rules in CJ02 for WBS elements .
How do i approach ? when i do manually it is taking the values in IW 32 when the status is released.
So i think first we need to chnage the Status from Created to released and then start working on step 1 and Step 2
Kindly suggest.
Thanks,

PS-Relationship between the system status in wbs elements and activities.

Relationship between the system status in wbs elements and activities.
We have the following requeriment with the system status in PS. We have a project with complete technically status and we want to undo the complete technically status in one activity without changing the complete technically status in the WBS element or the project.
The reason is that after putting the complete technically status, users have to change the values in the P.O. We don´t want "open" all the project and we only need to "open" the activity where the P.O. are in.
Is that possible? How is connected the system status between activities, wbs elements and the project son I can change the status in the below step without changing the higher steps?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Bala
Yes, you have put it rather correctly.
We use WBS elements for booking and posting time (client requirement). So what I am looking for is WBS Elements with the system status TERL (Time and Expense Released).
I talked of the deletion flag also, because a WBS element flagged for deletion can't be used. It's one of the criteria to screen the WBS elements.
I hope it's clearer now.

WBS element and Cost Center

Hi Gurus,
As far as I know, when the a/c assignment category is P in a PO, the costs are assessed on the cost object WBS element and when the a/c assignment category is K in a PO, the costs are assessed on the cost object cost center. But, as I drill down a WBS element, I find Requesting and responsible cost center.
So, can I say that a WBS element is actually a child of the responsible cost center ?
And all the costs assessed on a WBS element are eventually assessed on the responsible cost center?
Please help in clearing my concepts.
Thanks,
Kumar

hi,
You assign the account assignment to WBS element based on the OPERATIVE INDICATOR...
By this you specify the attributes of a WBS element and determine which tasks the WBS element can carry out in the project...
Please check the LInk given for futher explainations:

Unable to edit WBS element once Project is released

Hi,
I am unable to edit the WBS element once Project has been released. Is this SAP standard behaviour? Is yes, is there a way we can make this editable and is it advisable?
Please advice.
Regards,
Sophia Xavier

Hi,
The point is I am able to edit the WBS element before I have released the Project. But, once I have released the project the WBS element is blocked for changes.
Infact the WBS element is editable until the higher level WBS element is released. But finally when I release the Project and system status changes to REL, the WBS element is blocked for changes i.e., it is not editable.I am just trying to understand if this is standard behaviour of SAP that WBS element becomes ineditable only overall Project is released. If the WBS element has to be changed after release, is there a way out?

Listing WBS elements and object relations

Hello Friends,
I want to output all wbs-elements and attached objects in a list, but I'm not sure how to do this. Is there a standard report for this? In trans cj03 you can only se the relation between one wbs-element and its related objects... I want to view them all. I considered to make a report with quickviewer but I am not sure which tables to connect, as the data-fields in transaction cj03 only reffers to structure fields... I would appreciate any input...
best regards
Ballo

Hi Robert,
Check out the conversion routine attached to the WBS element, and you need to add code in your program to convert it before downloading.
If no conversion exit is available, you need to write code to select its mapping from database table.

WBS Element and it's associated Employees

Hi All,
In CJ20N, we will be allocating Employees to a WBS Element.
I would like to know from which table, the WBS element and its Employees can be retrieved?
Regards
Pavan

Did you try with the infotype table PA0027 - Cost distribution infotype. Or you can check in PA20 and infotype number 0027.
Here the WBS elements will be assigned to the employees with their % of allocation.
Hope this helps you.

Problem in loading multiple lev1 and multiple lev2 WBS elements in projects

Hi guys,
I've a requirement to load (from file) projects with multiple level 1 and multiple level 2 WBS elements. I'm using CJ01 recording to load projects in step 1 and it loads all the projects successfully.
Next I need to load WBS elements of level 1 & level 2 under each projects and also level 1 & level 2 must be linked correctly. Now in this step what I'm doing is that am doing the CJ02 recording to load WBS elements (irrespective of levels) under each projects. But as in the data file, the sequence of WBS records are not guarranteed to be in the exact sequence of hierarchy of WBS elements, what's happening is that though WBS elements are getting loaded successfully, but level 1 & 2 are not getting linked to each other correctly. So the hierarchy is broken. Please help how to resolve this issue like how to design the LSMW correctly.
Alternatively we can use CJ20N for loading the correct hierarchy but here we need to select correct project/level 1/leve2 etc which is difficult in case if a project doesn't have level 2 or level 1.
Please suggest the easiest design.
Cheers guys.

Hi,
You have to use levels in recording.
I think using CJ01 only you can upload all the projects with hierarchy.
Just arrange the file records accordingly;
Level 1----
WBSE 1
Level 2----
WBSE 1.1
Level 2----
WBSE 1.2
Level 2----
WBSE 1.3
Level 1----
WBSE 2
Level 2----
WBSE 2.1
Level 2----
WBSE 2.2
Level 2----
WBSE 2.3
Now, hierarchy will be correct.

Harsh.

WBS Elements and Asset Under Constructions have different Cost Centers

Hello Experts,
We have created a WBS element in one of the projects.
As per standard process, when we create the WBS Element the Asset under construction is also getting created through the settlement rule within the WBS.
These assets should have the same Cost Center as the WBS has. However we are in a situation wherein the Cost Center in the asset under construction is different than the Cost Center in the WBS.
I have checked the settings like automatic account assignment, etc but all settings look correct.
Can you please explain first what could be the reason for such a difference between Cost Centers in WBS and AuC's and what is the solution to avoid it in future?
Thanks in advance
Leena

Thanks for your replies...
@ Alex - There is no Investment Programme ID maintained for this WBS in question since there is no IM for this project.
@ Abdul - Please elaborate more on Validation and Substitution.

Materials for Single wbs Element from project/Plant stock

Hi to all,
I would like to have the following scenarios for the single Project.
1) Some Activities in the single WBS Element will be using the Materials for specific to the Project. So MRP will be generated for the Project and PR,PO,Goods receipt will be done.
2) In the same WBS Element of some activity, wants to consume materials from the Plant stock. For this we donu2019t want to run MRP. From the reservation no, we want to take the materials for project use.
I have a single Network profile and I donu2019t want to create anymore.
Understand from movement type 411, we can take the materials from unrestricted Plant stock to project. Is there any other way/any config I need to check in account assignment category to fulfill the requirement to consume from Plant stock and also to use Project stock in a single profile.
Regards
N.Raju

Hi,
that is the only option, Std. SAP does not support for unrestricted plant stock ( for Project MRP or availability check).
same option-
1) transfer free stock( plant stock) to respective WBSE
2) Run MRP
3) Consume material.

Transferring wbs elements bewteen project definitions

I have created many wbs elements under a single project definitions and now have financial posting against them. Is it possible to transfer some of the wbs elements to a new project defintion?

Rich, there is nothing called transferring WBSE from one Project Definition to another. But you can do these.
1. Delete the WBSE, if there are no postings happend, and then create the WBSE with same id for the other project Definition.
2. Rename the WBSE id(for which the acutal cost exists) to some id, and then create the WBSE with the same id to other proejct definition..(i think it should work, check and come back)
But, I would like to ask you onething, why you want to mix up WBSE coding in a project. Suppose if your project Definition is A.001, then it is the good practice to maintain the WBSE which follows the code A.001.01, A.001.02 etc., From your post I understand that you want to create A.001 as project and A.001.01, A.111.01 as your WBS Elements. Why do you want to do like this?

Transfer WBS elements to Project Definitions

I have created many wbs elements under a single project definition and want to know if it is possible to transfer some of them to a new project defintion?

i think you are talking about something not related to Business Objects, are you asking about SAP BW?
kindly put your post to the right forum to get some usefull answer.
good luck
