What the function of product allocation firming

hi gurus,
a question about prodcut allocation. in mc94, what's the function in setting - firming: the switch-on, swich-off and unfirm period?
is there anyone has some idea on that.
thanks a lot.

Hi Daniel Zhou,
Firming is nothing but the usual term Fixing, or confirming. Firming defines whether the system is to create the new procurement proposals for material shortage within the planning time fence and how these procurement proposals are to be scheduled. No automatic change made to procrument proposal which are Firm during MRP run.
For details of Firming Type and usage just go through the link.

Hope clear to you.

Whats the function used in objective C to change language in an app

whats the function used in objective C to change language in an app

No. Actually its a not uncommon practise in iOS. See the app "Where is my Water" for instance. You can freely select what language you want to use in the game.
Another iOS app where the app does not offer this feature but should is XCom. For me the app uses German text with US-English movies and ingame speech. I would rather have complete english than a language mix, but I cant switch the game. I could swich my ipad to english, then the game would use english. But this would lead to other problems and its not really user friendly.
Speaking of language support. It is also ok to download languages after installation. After all it is only data, no executable.

Unable to confirm quantity on the sales order --- Product allocation issue

The following configuration steps were completed in the APO system.
1.     Maintain Product allocation object
2.     Maintain Product allocation group
3.     Maintain Product allocation procedure
4.     Create planning object structure with the necessary characteristics
5.     Maintain characteristic combination
6.     Create Planning area with necessary key figures
7.     Create Planning book and data view
8.     Maintain connection to planning area
9.     Generate Product allocation group objects
10.     Generate characteristic combination from planning area
11.     Allocate the stock for the CVC combination
12.                 Assigned the product allocation group to the APO product
Regardless of quantity in the planning book, it is confirming all the quantity on the ECC sales order. This is due to the material availability date being pushed out to 12/31/2011 which seems to be the last date of the planning area time series. The values on the planning book were maintained online (manual step).
Also when I run the simulation of product allocation under GATP>Reporting>Product allocation,
For the product allocation group and the combinations that I have, I get the message "No allocations defined for the current characteristic combination"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ashwin

Dear Ashwin,
I would recommend to use the transaction /SAPAPO/ATPQ_CHKUSG. Enter the PAL group and do the following:
First: run the transaction with the 3rd option. Select all assignments found by the report then press the button delete with incoming order qty -> this deletes all assignments without any order number
Second: run the transaction again with the 1st option. Select all entries. press the button "merge PAL assignments", press button execute, choose on the first popup "yes" and on the second popup "no" -> this should correct the shortages.
Check the note 676128 to get further information about the //ATPQ_CHKUSG and the options.
I hope this helps.

Tibor

Whats the functional difference between CUA and UME?

Hi All,
A small query regarding UME (User Management Engine) and CUA ( Central User Administration). Whats the functional difference between these two. I read in help documents that UME will be used for SAP WebAS Java server. But I read that it can be used for ABAP engine as well. Then why do we need to use CUA when we have user friendly interface tool like UME. According to my knowledge from help documentation, UME comes pre installed. so we dont need to install it as we have to do for CUA.
Can any help me in understanding the difference between these two. Thanks in advance. Good day.
Regards,
Farooq.

Hi,
Indeed good question.
It depends on installation type you selected. But are responsible for user administration in terms of creating, deleting, updating and role assignment tasks to users and groups.
--CUA is meant for ABAP Installation. CUA is responsible for entire landscape user administration works with RFC connection talking to all ABAP systems
--UME is meant for Java installations, plus UME is responsible for handling communication between ABAP users and java users.

Whats the functional difference between user IDs SAP* and DDIC?

Whats the functional difference between SAP* and DDIC? Can any one tell me please. I am new here. Thanks in advance.

Hi Farooq,
There are three user IDs in various SAP clients.
1. SAP* (Client 000 and 001)
SAP* denotes the default super user and has all administrative powers.
2. DDIC (Client 000 and 001)
DDIC user is responsible for the maintenance of the ABAP/4 Dictionary and the software logistics.
3. EarlyWatch (Client 066)
The EarlyWatch user has access only to monitoring and performance data.
Please check this link for more information on data dictionary objects.

Whats the functional difference between dbconole and using the Grid control.

I know this may seem like a strange question, but I was wondering if I only have one instance on my server, would benefit would i gain if I installed and configured the grid control
over the dbconsole that comes with the 11gr2?
I know the Grid control can discover many databases, but what else can it do that the dbconsole cannot?
thanks!

What is the functional specification

hai
sap gurus please tell me the functional specification how can we write the functional specification
can anbody explain in details and give me one good example for functional specification?
thanks
regards
anwar

Functional Specification:
To speak at macro level that is at project manager or at senior levels. The Functional Spec (Specification) which is a comprehensive document is created after the (SRS) Software Requirements Document. It provides more details on selected items originally described in the Software Requirements Template. Elsewhere organizations combine these two documents into a single document.
The Functional Specification describes the features of the desired functionality. It describes the product's features as seen by the stake holders, and contains the technical information and the data needed for the design and development.
The Functional Specification defines what the functionality will be of a particular area that is to be precise a transaction in SAP terminology.
The Functional Specification document to create a detailed design document that explains in detail how the software will be designed and developed.
The functional specification translates the Software Requirements template into a technical description which
a) Ensures that the product feature requirements are correctly understood before moving into the next step that is technical development process.
b) Clearly and unambiguously provides all the information necessary for the technical consultants to develop the objects.
At the consultant level the functional specs are prepared by functional consultants on any functionality for the purpose of getting the same functionality designed by the technical people as most of the times the functionalities according to the requirements of the clients are not available on ready made basis.
Let me throw some light on documentation which is prepared before and in a project:
1) Templates
2) Heat Analysis -
3) Fit Gap or Gap Analysis
4) Business Process Design
5) Business Process Model
6) Business Change & Impact
7) Configuration Design, which is just 5 % of Total SAP- have different names -
8) Future Impact & Change Assessment
9) Functional Design (Module Wise)
10) Risk Assessment
11) Process Metrics and Many More-- Which has impact on Business and its work flow

What are all the Function Keys for on my new KU-0841?

I just got an HP KU-0841 Keyboard and want to know what the Function Keys are for F1-F12.
Where can I learn about how to use them? Thanks

Hi,
Depending on application, or game. For example on one application which I use daily
F1 = Help (nearly all applications use this),
F2 = Slpit screen
F3 = End
F4 = Expand
F5 = Find / Re Find
F6 = Change
F7 = Up
F8 = Down
F9 = Swap
F10 = Left (one screen)
F11 = Right (one screen)
F12 = Cancel
Again, DEPENDING ON applicantion, you have to learn from application. Some applications allow you to re-program those keys.
Regards.
BH

How do I get what does the function does.

Hello.
I want to get what the function actually does like in
javascript:
object.onmouseout
what has hot a result of this:
function anonymus() {
what ever the function does
but in flash I tried to use this:
object.onEnterFrame
but I get this
[type Function]
Thanks

I'm not sure I understand...but then I'm not entirely
familiar with javascript... do you mean that you want to access the
actionscript definition of the function? You can't do that (except
maybe with a decompiler).
to call a function and get the result you use the open and
close braces, with arguments if required (for example):
object.onEnterFrame()
or
object.doMyThing("with this argument")
or just
doMyThing()
depending on where its defined and current scope.
but if you do trace(doMyThing) or trace(object.doMyThing)
it will trace: [type Function]
this is normal. In the same way that an object's string
output is [object Object] if you try to trace it. The difference
with an object is that you can access its properties and method
names (functions) without knowing them if they are not hidden by
using a for in loop. But you can't (AFAIK) get anything related to
the contents/definition of a function (or method) at runtime.

Srini

Hi Sumitra,
Thanks a lot for your quick response!
Actually to say availability check is working but not product allocation.
I checked the settings in Material master MRP 3 view for strategy group and it is 40.
Availability check is 02 assigned. OVZ9 settings are assigned correctly 02-A- SD Order.
Not knowing what is preventing to reserve the stock against product allocation!
Do you or any one know where to see the product allocation stock?
Best Regards& Thanks a lot for your help!

Product allocation error while creating a sales order

Hi Gurus,
My client is using the availability check against product allocation functionality in sales order.while I am creating the sales order and entering the material system is throwing the error message product allocation XXX is invalid,after pressing the enter button system has thrown another error "incorrect index structure for table XMVERF_POS/000010" and unable to save the order.
I have checked the material master and the product allocation is assigned in basic data 1 view,I have also checked the IMG settings it has maintained and assigned to infostructure.Please let me know is there any config settings are missing related to product allocation.
Regards,
hari challa.

Please check if storage location is populated for the material. Also may be this material is a non-stock material and not relevant for storage location check.. If you have any non-stock items in your order and if you are populating the storage location in the order automatically, then this happens. Please check your code and bypass the check for non stock items.
Hope this helps
Regards

Product Allocation: Removing a Material from Product Allocation

Hey folks!
I am new to the forums, so hopefully some of you sharks will bite on this one. I work for a consumer products company and we're having issues with product allocations.
We have had a material on product allocation for the past 3 months. We used a allocation rule that is modeled off of the S140 rule on the basic data of the material view. However, our production has now ramped up sufficiently to produce this product and provide normally.
1) How do we remove the material from product allocation?
We deleted the rule from the basic data view, but is there anything else we need to do? There are many remaining open sales orders that get the error "No Feature Combination exists for this selection error". I have ran rescheduling (V_V2) and have also ran the SDRQCR21 to rebuild requirements, but it still remains with this error.
2) Is there something we have to do with the infostructures? Something we have to do in MC64 or MC94?
3) Do we need to go through each sales order and delete the line item and replace the line item to get the normal ATP to function (we would rather not do this as we have EDI information connected to each line item)
4) Is there another report out there I need to run that I just do not know about?
Any help would be great. We are on ECC5.0 Hotpack 15. I will reward points if I can figure out how to.

Use MC94 to remove the quantities allocated.
Use MC62 to remove the planning hierarchy.
I believe that in your situation MC94 will work.
