Hello Marc and Sander,
I checked the document status and tested the link myself using a PC external to the SAP environment and did not have any problem. You do have to be logged in to do this. If you are not, you should see a page that will appear which says that a login is required to use that feature. On some occassions, users see an error message instead. I apologize for that.
Kind Regards,
David

    Hi Cornelia,
    With the link Planning Modeler and Planning Wizard should be opened.
    I mean if we click on Start Modeler button in transaction RSPLAN, the link should redirect us to Planning Modeler.
    And if we click on Start Wizard button in the transaction RSPLAN, the link should redirect us to Planning Wizard.
    Regards,

  • Send IDOC from Business Connector to SAP faster

    Hi Developer!
    I need to send a very lot of IDOC converted from XML files from the Business Connector to SAP. The XML files are in different directories pro business partner, but they have a same type (ISU_MSCONS).
    My problem, that the import take a lot of time. Only in every 3 seconds (IDOC creation time) gets (or works up?) the SAP one IDOC. I start diferent services pro partner at the same time to import the IDOCs, but I couldnt short the 3 second work time in the SAP. So you can count it easy, that in 1 minute I can import 20, in 1 hour 1200, in 1 day 28800 IDOCs instead of 100.000.
    It is really parallel import? Have anybody any idea to make the import more faster. I know (asked the SAP Administrator) so, one BC - SAP connection (Program_ID) has more pools (= threads) in the SAP at the same time.
    Thanks any help,
    Charlie

    Hi Satish,
    You can achieve this requirement
    1)If your external system going to support web service cals then send IDoc from External system as a web service, in PI use sender side SOAP and receiver side IDoc receiver channel  to  send IDoc.
    or
    2)Use proxy program ,implement the same ALE logic in PI.
      or
    3)Copy the Extenal IDoc message in to file folder as XML,then use file adapter to pick up this message and send it SAP using IDoc.
    Regards,
    raj

  • Privacy on Verizon Business Plan

    My phone is owned by my employer and my plan is paid for by my employer. Does my employer have access to my text messages, emails and phone call records? As with a lot of people these days, I use my work phone for work and personal use. I'm concerned about my employer's ability to view anything and everything on my work phone that I consider personal. I read through the privacy policy but most of the information provided is regarding personal or family plans, not business plans.

    iPhone 5s is the phone type.
    I'd like to know what Verizon's policy is on the subject. Say, for example, my employer calls and asks for all of my text message history. Does Verizon hand it over or not? Does it vary from company to company? If so, why?
    Agreed that I shouldn't "expect" any privacy but just curious how easy it is for the employer to access the data on the phone.

  • How to enter the plan in SAP for semi finioshed parts

    Dear all,
    One of my client is manufacturing  both the Semi finished (Part "B") as well as  Finished parts (Part "A")  in their location.
    The production capacity of the Part "A is 40,000 units.
    But, the production capacity for the Part "B"is 60,000 units
    At present he is handling  the production unit with 2 different plans (manual plan).
    Now the question here is,
    1.He wants to feed both the plans in to SAP R3
    2.Users should make use of the MRP generated planned orders only
    How to configure is this?
    Your suggestions are greatly appreciated
    Thanks,
    CLS

    Dear Mr.Dharma,
    Thank you for your information.  We are following the process as mentioned by you. Here we have a problem - according to my requirement, i have plan for both materials A and B.
    Example :- The plan for item A = 20,000
    I am entering the demand in MD61. after running MRP system generates planned order for item A as well as item B for the qty of 20,000.
    Here the available capacity for item B is 40,000 hence we want to create planned orders for 40,000 for item B and 20,000 for item A.
    Regards,
    CLS.

  • Business Process: Final Demand Plan Key Figure in the past for APO DP

    Hello APO process experts,
    I have a BPX question for APO DP process owners, consultants or gurus:
    1.- Have you ever seen in any SAP APO customer, that in their APO DP planning books, they chose or designed to update the Final Demand Plan key Figure in the past closed historical buckets with the Actual Sales?
    Meaning that that in the Past closed historical Buckets, Actual Sales and Final Demand Plan, look exactily the same.
    Meaning that they create a dynamic Final Demand Plan key figure so to speak, yet they did not choose to create a key figure that also keeps the Final Demand Plan as originally entered.
    2.- Would you think that doing the above, without keeping any keyfigure in the planning book that actually shows what the Final Demand Plan was in the Past, is a good practice?
         The Demand Planner could still retreive the Final Demand Plan from BI reports, yet, dynamically they could never really see it in the planning book.
    3.- Do you think the above dynamic key figure would bias the Demand Planner's behaviour to manipulate the future open Final Demand Plan buckets to enter volumes in order sum to a monthly total, independently of what were the over and underachievements in the past (since they are not really visible to him) ?
    I would really like your feedback,
    thanks in advance!
    JD Loera

    Hello Thanks for your feedback.
    I agree with your point, and I hope that i still get more feedback from other Business Process Experts.
    I am trying to build a case for my client, to challenge the decision of their initial design as this practice is going to hurt the Demand Management process, if what they intend to achieve is a true "unconstrained demand plan"
    Much appreciated
    JD Loera

  • SAP Organizational Plan for SAP Business Workflow

    Hi,
    This is question is specific to SAP Business Workflow within ECC, relating to SAP Organizational Management:
    We have more than one instance of SAP, where one instance is used to run all of our business, except SAP HR (let's call this SAP Instance 1), and another instance that is only used for SAP HR (let's call this SAP Instance 2);
    We want to implement SAP business workflow (e.g. approving requisitions through workflow in ECC);
    Is it possible to use our SAP organizational plan that is already defined in our SAP HR instance of SAP (SAP Instance 2), instead of defining an SAP Organizational plan in SAP Instance 1 only to support SAP business workflow. 
    Is it possible to define an interface from SAP Instance 1 to 2, to look up the requisition approver, pass it back to instance 1, and then send the workflow to the appropriate person.  Or is there another better approach?  e.g. Replicate organizational plan that exists in instance 2 in instance 1?  SAP tools for this?
    From what I have briefly read online thus far, I understand that "The organizational plan is part of the PD component "Organization and Planning. The organizational plan is maintained on a client-dependent basis. An organizational plan which was created for personnel management purposes (or is to be created) can be used in SAP Business Workflow without any changes, provided the workflow functionality and the personnel management application run in the same client."  To me, this sounds like that the workflow functionality and organizational plan must exist in the same system and client.
    Any thoughts, suggestions, or any advice to share?
    Cheers,

    Hi AD1981,
    Standard solution would be using distributed Organisational Management. There is custom ALE for this (check tcode SALE: Application Link Enabling (ALE) -> Modelling and Implementing Business Processes -> Predefined ALE Business Processes -> Human Resources -> Master Data Distribution -> Set Up Distributed Organizational Management). Basically you would maintain organsation in HR system and distribute changes to other instance using ALE. Workflow would rely on the distributed org. structure.

  • SAP BW-BPS (Business Planning and Simulation)

    Hi All,
    Can anybody tell me, what will be the impact on SAP BW-BPS (Business Planning and Simulation) after upgradation fron SAP BW 3.5 to SAP BI 7.0.
    or what all care need to be taken before upgradation?
    Regards,
    Prateek

    Please allow me this opportunity to point out that "upgradation" and "updation" are not real words. The correct terms are "upgrade" and "update".
    Seems trivial, but I've seen them make their way into names of workflow steps and class methods.
    Yes, English is not logical!
    creation - yes
    deletion - yes
    updation - no   It's update.

    what are the different technical systems are there in the landscape.
    The technical system describes the physical view and the business system the logical view, respectively.
    So in most cases you must define both but while a technical system can only link to one WEB AS, more than one business systems can link to the same technical system.
    Tech System - Holds the tech details like installation no, db instance.
    Technical Systems are of following types:
    Technical systems are application systems that are installed in your system landscape. An example of an application system is a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) server. In the SLD, there are five types of technical systems:
    1.)WEBas java,
    2.)Standalone JAVA
    3.)Third party
    4.)Web as ABAP
    1) Web AS Java
    Web AS Java systems consist of one or more instances and each instance is installed on a separate host. An instance itself consists of cluster nodes that can communicate with each other.
    2.)Standalone Java
    Standalone Java technical systems are standalone Java applications that are installed in a computer system from an administration perspective. They can also be installed as an operating system service or as a daemon
    Web AS java belongs to the NetWeaver Comes with both ABAP and Java, Standalone instread comes separate from the netWeaver.
    3) Third party technical sytem
    It can be any of the technical sytem. let us say if you want to send a file to R/3, here the file reside in your local system. for that you can define your local system as a third party technical system.
    All those machines that comes under non sap, belongs to the third party.
    4.) Web AS ABAP technical systems, ranging from any SAP system to an APO server or CRM server, are based on the same Basis Component (BC), which includes the ABAP interpreter, ABAP Dictionary, ABAP Workbench, and so on. A dedicated database, which stores most of the data of the BC and the application components, is associated with the system.

    What is your file size and how many records are there in your file ? which idoc your using ?
    The file size that your server can process depends on various different aspects like the server hardware sizing, total available memory form both Java and ABAP side, the kind of interfacing you are trying to achieve, if your interface needs a complex mapping etc. Although there is no correct picture on theoritical Max file size, it will depend on the specifics of your landscape.
    I personally feel that, processing a 2 GB file is not a good idea as the message when converted to XML its size multiplies atleast 3.5 times to 7 times, which gets persisted at various stages of logging that the system does. You may want to consider other options like splitting the messages into smaller chunks, having no or minimal mapping and configuring the recordset per message property.
    Personally in one of the implementations we have had to process a Max file size of 350MB which gets processed once a month and that too during non-peak working hours.

    Selecting an IDOC depends on your requirement.
    example: if it is purchase order then the idoc would be orders.orders05
    if it is invoice,idoc would be invoic.invoic02.
