WBS element change

I have a question for the project system,
As a part of restructuring process I have to open some of the WBS element of co.code 0400 to co.code 0015, from the 01/01/2007.
Is it possible to change the co.code in WBS elements of co.code 0400 or i should create new wbs elements by copying from co.code 0400 and then assign them to co.code 0015

Hi,
I would transfer it to new wbs-el. too - as Jonathan said.

Query Regarding transfer of WBS element change data

Hi All,
We have a requirement in which we need to transfer the change/create/delete information for WBS element in SAP to a third party system for certain set of specified fields.
The problem we are facing is that the change and create information dosen't get updated in the CDHDR and CDPOS tables, but the master table for WBS element (PRPS).
One way of fetching the change information is to compare the old and new field values for the specified fields, which seems to be a tedious job.
Just wanted to know if there is any other possible solution to the above requirement????
Thanks in advance,
Manish Gupta

You should also include Oracle Warehouse Builder in your evaluation. It uses Oracle gateways to pull data from 3rd party databases and supports loading from flat files as well. If these data sources support ODBC, then you might be able to load via the ODBC (Generic Connectivity Gateway), wouldn't be super fast, but it you could manage the dowtime...

Problem issueing material from one WBS element to another

Hi Guys,   This is my first post so be kind.
Our projects during their life cycle change their WBS element sub number.   Example New project starts with WBS element # E.7029.00.010 at some point in the project it moves on to the next level and the WBS element changes to E.7029.00.020 later in the project it will again change to E.7029.00.030. Ok you get the idea.
Now the problem.   When the project is at the .020 level we purchase inventory and recieve it into project inventory under the WBS elemement E.7029.00.020.
Now the project has moved on to E.7029.00.030 and we want to create a production order to make a prototype. The WBS element for the production order is E.7029.00.030 but the inventory is still under WBS element E.7029.00.020. When we go to issue the material to the job it says there is none in inventory under WBS E.7029.00.030. Which is right it is all under E.7029.00.020.
Is there a way that we can store the inventory under E.7029.00 and be able to issue it to any sub group of E.7029.00 so that it would not matter if the current WBS is E.7029.00.020 , E.7029.00.030 or E.7029.00.050?
Since our BOM's can be quite extensive and often contain a large number of new components this would be of great assistance.
Thanks for your time and consideration.

The project moves on to another stage.   During the development of new products the project goes through several stages before the new product is released for production and sales.   For example:
Stage 10 - concept
Stage 20 - initial design
Stage 30 - design refinement
Stage 40 - Bata testing
Stage 50 - Final design
Stage 60 - Production process design
At each of stages 20 - 50 changes to the BOM can occur. Material would be purchased at stage 20 and could continue to be used through the rest of the stages including after release to production.   But if the material is purchased during stage 20 then it sits in inventory under the WBS element ending in 020 but when the project moves on to the next stage the material will be used to produce prototypes for stages 30 - 60 as long as the material is included in the BOM at that time.

How do we get complete hierarchy for a WBS element??

Hi All,
Is there any FM to get complete hierarchy for a WBS element??
Or any other method that would achieve this requirement ??
Eg:
C.00103.1
C.00103.1.1
C.00103.1.2.3
C.00103.2
C.00103.2.1 etc
If i give C.00103.1, all the WBS elements in the hierarchy should be displayed.
Any pointers are of great help.

Prathima

Hi,
Available Methods
Getinfo : Read detailed information about WBS [ BAPI_PROJECT_GETINFO ]
Maintain : BAPI: Project maintenance [ BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN ]
SaveReplica : Replicate work breakdown structure (ALE) [ BAPI_PROJECT_SAVEREPLICA ]
The WBS hierarchy object type defines the hierarchy of the WBSelements. A project definition always has exactly one hierarchy. If theposition of a WBS element changes, the whole hierarchy has to berebuilt. Therefore, the WBS hierarchy object type has only one command:
Create. Every WBS element receives exactly one entry in the table parameter IWbsHierarchieTable with which it defines its position.
Command: Create
Use this command to create or change a WBS element hierarchy for aproject definition. Enter the WBS hierarchy object type and the Create
command in the table of the IMethodProject parameter. The commandrefers to all entries in the table of the IWbsHierarchieTable parameterthat contains the data for the data for the hierarchy. Each entry inthe IWbsHierarchieTable refers to a WBS element that describes its position relative to the other WBS elements.
Example
- Positioning WBS elements TRAINING , TRAINING.1 and TRAINING.2 . (WBS elements TRAINING.1 and TRAINING.2 are subordinate toWBS element TRAINING. WBS element TRAINING1 is positioned on the left of TRAINING.2.)
IMethodProject
OBJECTTYPE = WBS-Hierarchy
METHOD = Create
OBJECTKEY =

METHOD = Save

Hi,
You can create a Transaction Variant for the transaction VA02 in which you have to maintain the WBS Element field as output only.
1. Go to SHD0, enter VA02 in Transaction & give a name to the transaction variant and press Create.
2. Enter an order no., go to the item "Account Assignment" tab.
3. Check "Output Only" against WBS Element in the screen listing all the tabstrips & Fields.
4. Exit & Save.
You will be returned to the SHD0 screen.
Select the "Standard Variants" Tab under "Standard Vriants" tab. Press activate to activate the Transaction Variant.
Go to VA02 to test the variant. You will get the WBS Element disabled.
Revert in case of any doubts.

Vijay

Cannot change Status of WBS Elements

Hi Guys,
I am trying to change the status of a WBS element. When i try to change the status of the WBS element, I get the message that " THere are still open down payments for the WBS ". What does this actually mean??
I found the downpayment GL and looked for the open items. In the open items i was able to find a line item to which this WBS is attached. Then i tried to go to the document, in which this line item exists. Now in order to clear the open line item with the WBS, how should i clear that line item?? I want to know how to clear the down payment for this WBS or the found out line item.
Thanks.
Kris..

Hi,
Run the report S_ALR_87013536 - Plan/Actual/Down Payment as Expense for the particular WBSE that was showing in the error. Here you would see the value of down payment against the WBSE.
Run FBL3N for the down payment G\L by selecting the WBSE from dynamic selection. Here you can get the open line items with WBSE and relavent PO.
For clearing the down payment discuss with your concern MM and FI dept.
Hope this could help you.

Nag.

How to change WBS Element in FI Entry for Asset

Hi all,
I have a scenario where an asset has been capitalized with WBS element 1. After several months we realized that it has to go to WBS element 2.
We update the Asset Master Data with a new WBS Element 2.
Depreciation from this date onwards is posted to WBS Element 2 (this is expected), but in FI the asset acquisition cost is still in WBS element 1.
Does anyone know how to rectify the FI document with correct WBS element i.e WBS Element 2
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Regards
Pramod Saraswat

Hi Pramod,
In posted document you cant change the WBS element.
In order to post on WBS 2 , you have to reverse the acquisation entry posted on WBS1. Then update correct one in asset master then post acquisation.

Change of Source Structure for Partial Settled WBS elements - CJ02

Hi
As per standard SAP, the change of source structure under settlement perameters of WBS element is not supported when the settlement of WBS element is done either partial / full.
However, the client needs this change by doing any Z-Development as one time activity (since the source structure was changed for certain WBS elements as per change in business process).
Can i Know procedure to do the Z development to modify the source structure for partial settled WBS elements and also let me know the any side effects in this regard.
Regards
Anil

Hi Anil,
I agree with Ajay. You can try to change it in Debugging mode.
The values are handed over from include LCJWBF5Q (form project_settle_single using)
Some customer have also made a modification as a permanent solution.
Unfortunately in the standard it is not possible.

Changing WBS element in PO

Hi
In my Purchase Order, earlier it was account assigned to a WBS element A. When we ran CJI3, it showed the same. But now the account assignment of WBS element was changed to B. I have no idea how this got changed. I only can check from the Purchase Order history and found that "Profit center has been changed for the item".
How this could have happened? Any info reg this will be helpful. Thanks.
Reagrds
Ram

Hi,
You can check the same in item >envoirnment-> changes.
Also if your PO is made wrt PR & some one has changed the wbs in PO only then it will not show correct commitment values in PS reports.
If you want your data to be correct then you give authroization only to your Planning team to change the WBS element. You can ask your consultant to make these fields as grey when PR is converted to PO.

Vinay

Checking WBS elements when changing WBS element group

Dear Gurus,
Well I am a technical consultant, I use to dwell in the ABAP forum, so maybe I am going to say things without much sense, if so please tell me.
I have a problem. One of our customers uses transaction KJH2 to change WBS elements groups and they have asked us to check the WBS elements that the users can put in the transaction.
If a user adds a new WBS range both the WBS elements have to exist in the system, we have to check it somehow, probably using a user-exit or a BADI.
The problem is that I have been looking for a BADI or a USER-EXIT for many hours and I have been unable to find one which allows us to check this, same when the user inputs the WBS element as when we save the changes.
Somebody has some help? Any advice would be apreciated.
In the while I will keep trying to find it and if I succeed I will post it here anyhow.
So long I have put a break-point in the 'CL_EXITHANDLER' class and I have checked the BADIs that can be used when I make the process, none can be useful I think. I have tried to find a USER-EXIT and I have foud none.
Thanks in advance to everyone.

Hi Ayan,
Maybe you are right and we can't use a BADI for this. But we have a customer which has requested us to code this data check so I have to try.
I agree that this is master data but it is a simple data check without many consecuences (at least it seems so to me), maybe there is a way to do this.
Right now I think I am going to stop this until Monday as the FI consultant is now on vacation.
Thanks a lot for your reply.
