WO Connected to WBS Element

Good Day Friends,
My business unit has requested to have the WBS elements printed on the shop papers for coresponding WO; however, I am finding it difficult to find the link between the ILOA table and the WO itself. Does a direct link exist, between the AUFNR and PROID, if so please help me connect the dots.
Thank you!

Case 1 -
table AUFK has AUFNR and PSPEL for this the WBS number should be in the additional data tab of the work order
Case 2 -
From table AFIH for AUFNR get ILOAN
for ILOAN get TPLNR from table ILOA

How to find out which WBS Element is assigned to which Cost center?

Hi all,
How to find find out that this WBS element matches this cost Center? I mean, How to find that all these WBS elements are assigned to this cost center? Can you all please give me the corresponding fields and tables? And what are the fields for COST CENTER GROUP and COST ELEMENT GROUP?
Thanking you all in advance,
Chandra sekhar

the connection is, when you post a FI-document:
you need a G/L - account and an account assignment
(WBS-Element or cost centre in you case WBS)
this data is put from FI per interface to Controlling:
here you have the cost-element (= G/L account)
and the CO-object
you'll find all combination of cost-elments and co-objects in Table cosp

WBS Elements not getting created in ECC Project System from CRM 7.0

Dear all,
We are trying to integrate SAP CRM 7.0 with SAP ECC-PS module. The objective is to bring in the marketing plan and elements data from the CRM system, and to create the corresponding WBS in project system. We have done most of the configuration as recommended by SAP in both the systems, and we see that the BDOCS are getting generated and sent to the ECC system. The following steps have been successfully completed:
1.       Set up the RFC connections between the two systems
2.       Selected the connection type as Middleware in CRM system.
3.       Installed the cProject Add on in CRM box.
4.       Created a project scenario (with project and network profiles) in the PS system and assigned the same in the CRM system.
5.       The Project Scenario in PS config has the same name as the Project Type in CRM config.
6.       Created and released the campaign ids being created in the CRM system.
As already mentioned, we can see that the BDOCS are coming to the ECC system and are getting stored in BDOC_TRACK table. However the issue is that the corresponding WBS elements are not getting generated in the ECC system. Is there anything that that we are missing in the ECC box which would trigger the WBS element creation?
Request you all to share your inputs which would be immensely beneficial for us in achieving this integration.
Thanks and Kind Regards,
Aditya Shrivastava

Hello Aditya,
We too are facing this issue.. if you have resolved the issue could you please let us know the solution ?
Some inputs related to our system,
We have upgrade from CRM 4.0 to CRM 7.0 SP07 and R/3 backend system is on 4.7 SP27, earlier we have completed the upgrade on sandbox without any issues which was upgrade to CRM 7.0 SP04 but with SP07 we are facing the problem of WBS Element not getting created in R/3.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,

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.

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...

WBS Elements

What are wbs elements in SAP. What is the different b/w internal orders and wbs elements.

hi
WBS is nothing but Work Breakdown Structure. It is mainly used in Project System (PS) module. Tcode : CJ20N
For any project defined we must have atleast one WBS. Within this WBS we can have networks. Networks are nothing but the series of activities. Material are used to perform the activities.
To explain in detail just consider one example:
Govt of india wants to have Roads to be build through out the india. So Project can be defined in sap as "Connectivity".
WBS can be roads within different states like Roads for Gujarat, Karnataka etc.. i.e. WBS Gujarat, WBS Karnataka etc.
We can define different networks for these WBS like Road Between Ahmedabad to Surat or Between Bangalore to Belgham.
For this network we can have many activities like Land selection, Land Preparation, Road Building, Final finishing etc etc.
Hemal's example was a good example. Project Systems comes into play only when the industry's business is based on projects like... Construction companies, Engineer to Order scenarios. You may not see anyone using PS module for retail business. As Hemal explained in that example, you have a main project which is broken down into WBS elements. You can use the TC CJ20N to create the project and the WBS elements. Each WBS may have mutiple Networks associated and each Network may have multiple Network Activities as explained in the example by Hemal.
On the Sales Order, if your client is implementing PS module, you may have to attach the Sales Order to the WBS element it belongs to. WBS element is nothing but a bucket where all the activities belonging to that particular part of the project are captured. In the example, WBS Gujurat will tell you how many Sales Orders were created for the Gujurat sector, howmuch was spent on raw materials, what's the currect stock ([roject stock) available. How many Production Orders have been confirmed and howmany of them are getting confrmed in the future. How many invoices have been generated or how much revenue has been generated for that particular sector. How many deliveries have been made, what deliverables are still not accomplished.
So as you can see, PS is the center stage for all the modules that are being implemented like FI/CO, SD, MM, PP in this example. You can have cost centers and work centers defined. You can also have profit centers assigned at the plant level and get reports on varius selection criteria.
In a complete cycle of PS, like in reality, you initiate a project, you confirm/release the WBS/activities as per requirement, you execute the project and you close it.
One cannot initiate an activity unless it has been released by the project manager. Everything is accountable here and every dime is counted and at the end you know howmuch did you spend or make on each sector (WBS). Dont get confused with the term sector here... I am using it just for the explaination purposes.
In one typical example, the company I was working with until not too long ago, had Deliveries from the Project (TC: CNS0). We never used VL01N. We used CNS0 to create a delivery and then used VL02N for confirming the picking quantity for the already created delivery document.
I hope this should help you at least a bit. I'm not a PS consultant so I may not know a whole lot but trying going to CJ20N and you will see a lot yourself.
PS concultants are one of the highest paid consultants. Their supply is less and so is the demand. They are expected to understand real world business processes very well and they are generally the center stage of a project.

for Internal oerder
Purpose
Internal orders are normally used to plan, collect, and settle the costs of internal jobs and tasks. The SAP system enables you to monitor your internal orders throughout their entire life-cycle; from initial creation, through the planning and posting of all the actual costs, to the final settlement and archiving:
Implementation Considerations
Order management within a company usually differentiates between sales-oriented orders, and internal orders. Sales-oriented orders (production or sales orders) are intended mainly for the logistical control of input factors and sales activities. Internal orders are categorized as either:
Orders used only for monitoring objects in Cost Accounting (such as, advertising or trade fair orders)
Productive orders that are value-added, that is, orders that can be capitalized (such as in-house construction of an assembly line).
Internal order management is the most detailed operational level of cost and activity accounting. It can be used for:
Cost monitoring, for example, where costs need to be looked at from object-related aspects, unlike in Cost Element Accounting or Cost Center Accounting
Assisting decision-making, when you need to decide between in-house production and external procurement
An enterprises internal orders can be used for different controlling purposes. For more information, see Classified by Controlling Objectives .
Features
You can use master data to assign certain characteristics to your internal orders, which enables you to control which business transactions can be used with the internal order.
Internal order planning enables you to roughly estimate the costs of a job before the order starts and to make an exact calculation at a later date. You can choose between various planning approaches to compare the effectiveness of different methods.
You can assign and manage budgets for internal orders.
You apply the actual costs incurred by a job to your internal orders using actual postings. In Financial Accounting, you can assign primary cost postings (such as the procurement of external activities and external deliveries) directly to internal orders.
In period-end closing you can use various different allocation methods (for example, overhead costing) to allocate costs between different areas of Cost Accounting.
Order settlement enables you to transfer the costs incurred by an order to the appropriate receivers.
The information system for internal orders enables you to track planned and assigned costs on your orders in each stage of the order life-cycle.
You can archive internal orders that you no longer require. See Archiving.

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.
Vinitha.

CAT 2 WBS Element drop down

Hi,
Could anyone please tell me, how could i fulfill the following requirement.
When a user enters his/her time sheet he/she only wants to see the WBS elements which they are assigned to and not all in the drop down list.
Best Regards,
Roville

Hi, 
I believe you have to enhance CATS, you need to add a Z field to hold WBS and write the custom search same as WBS field but in the select modify the query.
Then once the user saves the values , the value from z field needs to transfered to Standard WBS.
Display the z-WBS in profile
User exits:
CATS0001 (Set up worklist): This one defines a worklist in the upper part of the CATS screen
CATS0002 (Supplement recorded data): Here you can add values to customer defined additional fields or even modify the data entered by the user
CATS0003 (Validate recorded data): This one is to check entries for whatsoever
CATS0004 (Deactivate functions on the interface): CATS got a lot of buttons. Here you can get rid of the ones you don't need.
CATS0005 (Customer field enhancements): You can add fields to CI_CATSDB here to later on use to display or enter additional data
CATS0006 (Validate entire time sheet): Mainly serves to validate the hours entered if you don't use HR
CATS0007 (Subscreen on Initial screen): Customer popup, defines data valid for the entire time sheet(row)
CATS0008 (Determine recipients for the approval workflow): You can connect CATS to a standard workflow so that superiors can approve times entered before they are transferred (HR, CO, PS...)
CATS0009 (User-Defined Text Fields in the Data Entry Section): You got two 40 character text fields in the data entry part you can fill with this exit - display only
CATS0010 (Display User-Defined Fields in the Worklist): Same as above for the worklist
CATS0011 (Customer-Defined Functions): Add your own functions to the menu
CATS0012 (Customer Subscreen): Define CATS header
CATP0001 (Determine Target Hours): Define your own target hours
Good luck 
Thanks,

Service order and WBS Element

Hello Experts,
I have a question regarding WIP service order costs. Can we post the costs of a WIP service order to a WBS element? IF so where do we link the service order and project/WBS Element? How do we post the costs to WBS elements?
Appreciate your help and time in this regard.....
Thanks,
Harish R

My problem scenario is like this.
We have two plants A and B of the same Co.Cd. We are physically closing plant A and moving everything into B. Now the open service order costs from plant A have to be moved to plant B. How do we do this?
Do we have to create a new service order/WBS element for all old open service order/wbs element?
Also where do we connect the service order and wbs element?
Appreciate your help and time.
Thanks,

Serial Number&WBS Element

Hi experts,
1-) I can not deliver sales orders because it requires serial numbers.
Can anybody tell me how to cancel asking serial numbers?
2-)If it is not available how can I create serial numbers?
I created serial numbers by trcode IQ01 but again I can not deliver sales order.
3-)At "create material serial number " screen it requires a WBS element.
What is WBS element?
And what is the role of it?
Thanks&Regards

Serial Number Management :
Serial Number Profile
Working With Serial Numbers
Serial Number Master Record
Creating Master Records for Serial Numbers
Serialization Data in the Piece of Equipment
Maintenance of Configuration Data
Serial Number Profile:
Definition
A group of data, summarized by a four-digit identification code, that defines the conditions and business procedures involved when assigning serial numbers to items of material.
You enter the serial number profile in the master record at plant level for the material whose individual pieces are to be managed using material numbers. This means that an individual serial number profile can be assigned to a piece of material per plant. In this way a certain material can require serial numbers at one plant, and not at others.
Structure
The serial number profile contains the following information:
 The business procedures for which serialization
Can be performed
Must be performed
Is performed automatically
Is not performed
 Information on whether for a particular business procedure
Serial numbers can be assigned, for which a master record does not yet exist in the system
Serial numbers that already exist in the system as a master record must be specified
 Information on whether for a particular business procedure, a stock check should take place, and how the system should react in the event of inconsistencies
The business procedures for which an equipment master record should or should not additionally be created for each serial number
The equipment category that the system uses when assigning serial numbers automatically in the case of equipment master records.
Working With Serial Numbers:
Purpose
You use serial numbers to identify items of material, which enables you to distinguish between the individual pieces.
Process Flow
 You create a serial number profile in Customizing for Plant Maintenance and Customer Service.
 You create a material master record and enter a serial number profile.
 You create a batch master record for the material if it is to be managed in batches.
 You can create serial number master records in advance if you want to have a pool of serial numbers. From a technical perspective, an "incomplete" equipment master record is created for this.
 You can create configuration data for serial number master records.
 You assign serial numbers to the material when business procedures take place (for example, a goods receipt):
 Either you assign manually serial number master records that you created in advance, or
 The system assigns automatically new serial numbers and creates new serial number master records for this
Serial Numbers in Sales and Distribution :
Use
It is possible to assign serial numbers in sales orders, inquiries and quotations, as well as for deliveries and returns deliveries. This makes it possible to track individual objects when goods movements take place (for example, sale of goods to a customer).
Integration
In order to use the serialization functionality in sales orders, inquiries, and quotations, you must have implemented the Sales component, and to use the serialization functionality for deliveries, you need the Distribution component.
Prerequisites
A serial number profile with the following procedures must be entered in the material master record:
Profile Maintenance for Deliveries
 Procedure SDCC checks the serial number on goods issue. The serial number usage for it should be 03 = must.
 Procedure SDLS defines that the serial number should be created on delivery. The serial number usage for it should be 02 = can.
 Procedure SDAU defines that the serial number should be created in the SD order for items that are delivered. The serial number usage for it should be 02 = can.
 In this way, it is ensured that the serial number is assigned at the latest when the goods issue is delivered.
SDAU This procedure makes possible the use of serial numbers in sales orders, inquiries and quotations
SDLS This procedure makes possible the assignment of serial numbers for deliveries.
SDCC This procedure makes possible the assignment of serial numbers when performing completeness checks for deliveries.
SDRE This operation makes possible the assignment of serial numbers for returns deliveries.
SDCR This procedure makes possible the assignment of serial numbers when performing completeness checks for returns deliveries.
Serial Number Master Record:
Definition
Data record that contains information for serial number management. The serial number is given to an item of material in addition to the material number, in order to differentiate that individual item from all other pieces of this material. The combination of material and serial number is unique.
Structure
The following information is contained in the serial number master record:
 Status information
You can establish here, which system and user statuses are valid for the master record. If necessary, you can set or delete the user status, display the authorized business procedures and set particular system statuses.
 Stock information
You can see here in which plant and warehouse the item of material is located, or to which batch it belongs. You can also see what type of stock and special stock is involved. The stock information is recorded automatically when goods movements are performed, and cannot be changed manually.
 Partner Data
Here, for example, you can use freely definable partner functions and partners to specify in Customizing which companies are responsible for the maintenance of the serialized material.
Configuration data
Here, you can configure a item of material according to its characteristics or make reference to a configured object.
Example of Serial Numbers
Company X manufactures solar collectors (panels). They produce three different types:
 Type A
 Type B
 Type C
A material master record exists in Company Xs system for each type. For quality control reasons the company wants to know for each solar collector delivery which customer has received which type of solar collector, and which serial number(s) of the collector type was/were delivered to the customer.
For this purpose, each solar collector that is produced is assigned a serial number that, together with the material number, uniquely defines it.
In addition, company X wants to maintain and repair particular solar collectors that it sells directly to individual customers. For this reason, an equipment history is to be maintained for the collectors. Company X is able to do this by creating equipment master records for these serialized solar collectors.
History
Use
 You can use the history of the serial number master record to ascertain which procedures have affected the serial number. You can find all documents that have been created for the serial number here:
 Production and refurbishment order
 Maintenance and service notification
 Maintenance and service order
 Sales order
 Delivery
 Inspection lot
 Goods document
 Maintenance plan
 Maintenance contract
Status Management
Use
Serial number processing is linked to status management. There are two different types of status:
 System status
System statuses are set when you execute a particular function for the serial number. For example, you post a goods receipt in the warehouse and set the status In warehouse by doing this.
User status
User statuses enable you to further delimit functions allowed for a serial number on the basis of a system status. You can assign and delete user statuses yourself if you have the authorization to do this.
Copying the Partner into the Serial Number :-
Use
Within the framework of a delivery, partner data is automatically transferred from the delivery note into the master record of the serial number when goods issues are posted.
Prerequisites
You have set the indicator Copy Partner in Customizing for Plant Maintenance and Customer Service under Plant Maintenance and Customer Service ® Master Data in Plant Maintenance and Customer Service ® Basic Settings ® Partner Data ® Copy Partner Functions to Master and Transaction Data.
 Furthermore, you have assigned the partner determination procedure and the corresponding functions to the equipment category under Technical Objects ® Equipment ® Assign Equipment to Partner Determination Procedure.
Features
 The system copies the partner data from the delivery note into the serial number master record.
 If partner data has already been specified in the serial number master record, this data is overwritten with the data from the delivery note. However, the system only overwrites partner data for which the indicator has been set in Customizing.
Creating Master Records for Serial Numbers:
Use
You are able to create directly master records for serial numbers during the assignment of serial numbers for various business procedures, if the serial number profile allows this.
In addition, you can create master records for serial numbers in advance. This would make sense if you want to have a particular quantity of numbers in the system, that you can assign during a business procedure. in particular, this is the case when you are using serial number profiles that require serial numbers to already exist for certain business procedures.
Activities
You have two options for creating serial number master records for a material in advance:
 You create an individual serial number for a piece of material.
You use this option, for example, if in make-to-order production you manufacture one item per day.
 You create several serial numbers simultaneously for a piece of material.
You use this option, for example, if in repetitive manufacturing you manufacture several items per day.
You can also create serial number master records if no serial number profile is entered in the material master record. However, use in business procedures is only possible if the serial number profile has been entered in the material master record.
Working with Serial Numbers in Deliveries:
Maintaining Master Data for Serial Numbers in Shipping
Assigning Serial Numbers in Deliveries
Deleting Serial Numbers from Deliveries
Creating Equipment in Deliveries
Some points of interest with serial numbers:-
-You can assign a unique serial number to each material. This allows you to monitor goods movement for individual materials, for example, when selling materials to a customer. Using serial numbers you can also manage the maintenance of individual materials more easily in the system. You must first create equipment master records, however, for these materials.
-To use serial numbers, enter serial number profiles in the master record for the relevant materials.
-Serial numbers are usually specified in the delivery item. However, you can also define them in the order.
-You can also have the serial numbers assigned automatically by the system.
-You must specify all serial numbers, at the latest, before posting goods issue.

Work breakdown structure (WBS) - Element

Hi Friends,
can anyone explain me about work breakdown structure (WMS) , how it is used and where it is used and tables involved in it .
Please let me know .
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Roberts.K

I can tell you a little about it, I ran into it some time ago on a brief project. The WBS elements are part of a project management system spans several modules in SAP. The basic idea is that a project may be broken down into many components and sub projects spread out over the entire enterprise. A project add new construction to a building for example will have a budget, construction costs, finance costs, etc. and involve resources and time from many different departments within the enterprise.
The WBS elements are the means by which activities these projects and their associated costs are connected to particular components of the project and to the project as a whole.
At least that's what I remember from 4 years ago.

Project/WBS element documents - in CJ20N

Hello everybody,
I have a requirement to implement documents into PS module.
The tasks are:
1) attach document to proj. definitioon/wbs element
2) select the right document from list of templates
3) automatically fill in the data
4) possibility od manual change - mainly in CJ20N
5) verisons & statuses
I have in my mind three possible solutions, but as I've never done that before, I can't decide which one will satisfy my needs.
a) Documents assigned to WBS element (cv01n can create such a document - I don't know how to maintein them)
b) Somehow connect documents from Business document navigator (OAOR transaction)
c) Somehow connect Smartforms to definition/wbs element
Can anyone give me an overview and/or the way how to accomplish this task?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Petr

Hi, Thanks for your reply.
Two questions:
1) How do I connect it to the CJ20N (project Builder) to be able to change the document over there
2) Can I put there fields of the generated document, which I must fill manually (keyboard) - because the information can't be retrieved from the system
Thanks
Petr

Sale order - Wbs element Report

Hi
Is there any report for sale order wise wbs element report.
In my sale order i will give wbs element and now i want to check "for one sale order , what are the wbs elements"

You can check the WBS for a sales order from the table view of VBAP.
The WBS field is PS_PSP_PNR.
Goto SE16 and give VBAP.
Enter your sales order number and execute. Look for your WBS elements in foeld PS_PSP_PNR for the different line items.
You can also create a quick SAP query on this.
