Hi
Header exchange rate picked up at time of PO creation with reference to document date in header.
If you fix exchange rate then it will be same for all items in purchase order.
In your case if exchange rate is different then check whether you have done goods receipt in two lots (say 8 items first and then 2 items) with different posting dates. Check accounting documents generated and in that document check translation dates for checking exchange rate in OB08 transaction.
And in invoice what is the currency you are using - if you do not use any special currency (foreign) then PO currency will be picked up. If exchange rate fixed indicator is not there in PO - depending upon system baseline date (posting date) exchange rate will be coming.
Thanks

BAPI for Production order creation against wbs element

dear all,
I am using BAPI (BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE) for Production order creation against wbs element.I am putting following input paramters in this
material no,
order type
plant
qty
basic start dt & end dt
wbs
But during GRN it is not taking the account assignment as project stock i.e. its picking movement type 101 but it should be 101Q.
For this what changes are required.
regards
ravi arora

Hi,
2 options i can think of:
1. Create a BDC program by recording co10
2. Create a planned order with order type PR using BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_CREATE, specify the WBS element & other details. Now use BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE_FROM_PLORD to create a production order with reference to the planned order created earlier.
I believe option 2 should meet your need. Check & revert.

Problems deleting WBS elements

Hi,
I'm trying to delete a number of WBS elements via CJ20N and I'm presented with an error message as follows:
"There are CATS records that have not yet been tran"
(Message no. CJ001)
I'm not sure exactly what this means or how to get around it (or even view the offending records) - Any ideas?
We are using WBS elements to capture project costs from Timesheets using CAT2.
I'm guessing that I need to transfer the postings against the WBS that I want to delete to another WBS - What transaction is used to do this?
Any pointers or advice will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
You can use transaction CJ88 to settel the wbs element.
Award points if useful.
Thanks & Best regards,

User Exit - adding defualt WBS Element in addi.tab for IW31 - Servi.Order

I am facing a problem with adding WBS Element in Addit.Data tab for Service Order creation using IW31.
At the time of creating service order using TCODE IW31, I have to maintian default values like WBS ELEMENT, for this I am using a USER EXIT "IWO10010".
The problem is getting dump error. Becuase, it is NUMC type and I am passing the value with character + numeric. Like "EX/1232/22".
Field length is NUMC - 8.
"CAUFVD-PSPEL"
If I create manually without using user exist, the field WBS Element is accepting the value and service order is creating successfully with WBS Element.
This is also same as CAUFVD-PSPEL.
I Couldn't understand How the SAP system will works?
Any solution for this.
Note: Creating Service Order IW31, Passing WBS Element with user exist with same field (CAUFVD-PSPEL) giving dump error showing "Passing Character values". If I create manually, and enter character + numeric in the same field CAUFVD-PSPEL, system creating service order without any error.
Help me out
thanks

PM Budget - Statistical WBS element

Hello,
My intention is monitoring the PM budget for a plant by linking every PM order to a statistical WBS element.
After posting on the PM order and performing costplanning via CJ40 i get a overview in transaction: S_ALR_87013543 - Actual/Plan/Variance Absolute/Variance %.
However. Not every PM order shows up in the report. I thought it had something to do with the moment you assign the WBS element to the PM order but this didn't prove to be a valid statement (before or after actual postings on PM order).
I can probably find out by extensive testing, but i was wondering if anybody knows if there are specific rules regaring the usage of statistical WBS elements in PM orders? More specificaly, when the assignment will NOT work and the actual costs will not show up in S_ALR_87013543.
Kind regards,
Peter Hageman

Settling was done towards a Costcenter. The WBS element used is a statistical WBS element, that only can be used for reporting purpose. how the settlement rule is set up doesn't matter in this case.
Issue no longer exists.
Solution was evident. WBS element in the order was stored on the location tab, and in order to use CJI3, you have to link it on the additional data tab...

IDOC and then create WBS element

Hi guys,
I need some help here.
The process is like this. I'm creating an IDOC which would then create a WBS element.
The message type used here is /ISDFPS/PS and Basic Type is /ISDFPS/PS01.
I'm posting the IDOC using FM "IDOC_INBOUND_SINGLE.
The segments that I'm populating are:
/ISDFPS/E1BP_PROJECT_DEF
/ISDFPS/E1BP_WBS_ELEMENT
Its posting and creating the WBS element successfully but there is a small issue.
Lets say I have a Project Definition A and under that I have a Parent WBS B
How do I put the newly created WBS element under the Parent WBS B?

Friends, Let me correct my stand here.
In my system, I simulated scenario, I am not getting REL status for higher level TECO WBS, when I undo TECO for network activity. I tried to find out why my system is behaving in that way. I referred note " 938066 - CJ20N: Cannot Undo TECO status of activity"
According to it correction is provided in Support package SAPKH60005 and I am at
SAP_APPL 600 0002 SAPKH60002 Logistics and Accounting .
So, My system is not correctly behaving. I have verified the same with one another note Note 542974 - Status inheritance in different transactions
Thanks to Ahmed & A Bhardwaj for overlooking me. So, I re look and got the reason. Rashid, take solution given by Ahmed & Bhardwaj ( The same is up to mark )

Creating WBS element using bapi BAPI_PS_INITIALIZATION

Hi All,
I have created Project definition successfully using function module "BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN" .
But while trying to create Wbs-Element for the project definition using same function module "BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN" we are getting the following error
Key does not correspond to mask: TR.XXXXX.X.X.XXX
Could any one help me out to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.
harsha p

Hi harsha p,
Error CJ609 "Key does not correspond to mask:TR.XXXXX.X.X.XXX" is always caused by an inconsistency between the project/WBS object number and the coding mask. Therefore, to solve the problem can you please try to run report ZZADJUSTPOSID from note 453280 attached?
The report should be imported into your system manually by SE38.
Please run it first in test mode to check the wrong entries and then correct them in update mode.
Best Regards,
Edna

Actual Date in WBS element

Hi,
Actually in my WBS elemrnt the actual Date fields are disabled in change mode, i need to enter the actual dates, How to do...
Thanks in Advance....

Entering actual start and finish dates for a WBS element, depends on below
1. WBS element has been further described using activities
2. Whether you have already entered actual dates for subordinate WBS elements.
WBS Elements W Activities
1. You can always enter actual start.
2. You can only enter actual finish, if all subordinate WBS element already have an actual finish.
WBS Elements W/o Activities
1. You can only maintain the actual start, if all activities that are assigned to WBS element have status "PREL" or "REL".
2. You can only enter actual finish if all subordinate WBS elements already have an actual finish and all activities for this WBS element have system status "final confirmation".
