Work status rule violation

Hi,
we have just migrated from BPC 7.0 to 10.0 and in the intercompany matching model now users get the error message that their currency translation job fails due to 'Work status rule violation'. In the past we did not have problems with these security and access settings.
Each user group can read&write only to their own entity, but can read all data, in order to see the matching figures from the sister companies.
Work status is set as following for data manager:
Unlocked - All
Submitted company - Mgr
Submitted group - Mgr
Approved group - Locked
Does this mean now in BPC 10.0 that, if any of the other entities has locked its data already, that another entity cannot run the fx translation properly anymore?
In the currency translation package, we have set the option to 'Yes', when asked whether to check for work status settings before running the package.
Would it now be better to set the 'Submitted company' setting in the work status options to 'All'. Or rather create a new 'Submitted intercompany' work status? Or would it not matter, if the users would check the box 'No' in the data package?
Or is this a totally other problem at all?
Thanks,
Melanie

Hi Melanie,
the simplest solution would be to ask your users not to leave the selection on <all> but select their entity.
Have you seen this post? http://scn.sap.com/people/sergey.nelyapenko2/blog/2013/01/10/how-to-deal-with-bpc-data-manager-packages-programmatically
It might help you find a way of getting there.

Need clarification regarding Work status rule

Hi All,
I have a work state "Submitted" which is controlled by "owner".
My work status is driven by following dimensions in the application:
u2022Entity - Owner dimension
u2022Category
u2022Time
Entity hierarchy is as follows : A
|____B
|____C
Now considering that user is owner of member "A", I set the work status to "Submitted". (Note: B and C does not have any owner)
It gives error "controlled by rule has been violated".
On the other side, one of the document tells states that "If the user is acting as an owner and the selected member has no parent, the user also acts as a manager (top hierarchy), they can select a work status controlled by "Owner", "Manager" or "Both"".
Going by this rule, in the scenario which i have explained above, it should set the work status as "submitted". But it is throwing error.
Kindly clarify if my understanding is wrong.

Hi,
The problem is arising because as per the setup, only the owner can change the work state to submitted. However, there are no owners for the child members.
You can try changing the setting to manager. If you login as owner of A, then you will be able to change the work state of A (since you are your own manager because A is the top node) and you will be able to change B and C also (since you are the manager).
Alternatively, you need to maintain the same user as the owner of B and C.
You have rightly indicated the statement "If the user is acting as an owner and the selected member has no parent, the user also acts as a manager (top hierarchy), they can select a work status controlled by "Owner", "Manager" or "Both"".
However, if you take a look at this statement, this is valid if the setting is manager. But in your case, the setting is owner. And there are no owners of the children.
Hope this helps.

Work Status error BPC NW 7.5

Hi,
I am having some trouble with Work Status for BPC NW 7.5.
When trying to change status I always get same message: "Controlled by rule has been violated". I've tried with differente ussers and I am suer they have all rights necessary to change status but, there is no way.
Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Raul

We have already made all tasks related to Work Status:
1. Configuring Work Status u2013 Like Unlocked, Submitted and Approved
2. Enter the Owner property in dim Entity
3. Configure the work status setting at the application level: Entity as owner, Time and Category "YES"
4. Aplication Administration --> Define the hierarchy as H1. We have defined the hierarchy in Entity PANETH1 also
But still didn't work... as we though it should. We have gone through the Admisnitration manual for BPC NW75 and check everything again. Everythign was correct. But, we checked all appendix also. There is where SAP explains how is all working. In some stage, BPC thogh we were the manager (because of the Entity hierarchy structure) but our Work status was not define for a Manager (because we don't need it). We made a try with everything in BOTH and is Working!!! Cool.
We are going to adjust everythign to our requirements now. But, we now itiis working correctly.
Thank you very much for you help.

Work status at application level

Hi Team
Can any one explain purpose of keeping dimension members in work status settings where dimensions are not relevent for work status at application level?

Hi Miguel,
You are comparing work status and the validation rules. However, these 2 are completely different functionalities.
For maintaining validations, please take a look at the below links from help.sap:

Jaydeep Jadhav

Hi All,
I too faced the same type of error. Below are the steps for the solution.
1. The error comes due to retro run with incorrect workschedule rule in IT0007.
2. You can check table V_T508A or V_001P_ALL to view the complete groupings of your personnel area/subarea,workschedule rule, Holiday cal,
3. Copy the existing record of IT0007>give the retro effective period as start date and enter the end date>select the populated workschedule rule from the drop down option-->save the record.
4. Run the psyroll in simulation mode and check the status.
Hope it may help you..

Customising error in work schedule rule

Hi All,
While running the TM schema TM04, i am getting "customising error in work schedule rule".
I could successfully generate work schedule with the same work schedule rule for the period 01-2006 to 01-2008.
I have configured all the nodes under work schedule. I have maintained payroll control record with retro accounting date as 01-2006 and the payroll date as 02-2006(i.e i released the payroll for run, so period got incremented).
In 0003, i have given TM status as 9.
I want to know if i missed anything in configuration. Can you please help me in this regard.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
You can also maintain the feature TIMMO.. the return value of this feature is Country Grouping..
You need to select the relevant country grouping and give the same as return value and activate the feature.

How to delete/hide work schedule rule

hi,
what is the process to remove work schedule rule
Thanks

Hi,
Work Schedule Change
Time administrators or business officers change work schedules through a PA40 Action (FTE or
Status Change).
System users who are changing a work schedule must pay careful attention to the effective date for such change. The Work Schedule change should always become effective on a date for which no time has yet been entered. Entering an effective date that occurs in a time period for which hours have already been entered will result in serious time entry errors.

List validation rule violations in Access 2013

In my list,
column validation is working good.
but in the access 2013
, there will be validation rule violations,
Can anyone tell me why?

Hi,
According to your description, the formula in use not working well in Access 2013.
I can reproduce this issue in my environment, seems that this formula is not compatible with Access 2013.
As a workaround, if there is a need to validate the number type of value, you can use a Number column to hold the input value instead. By default, the Number column
only accept number type of value.

i received the message "submitted data did not pass validation. you may need to resubmit data" on both ocassions.

I have 2 entities (companies) - C1111 and C1113.
I have the script logic for calculation keyfigures for this entities (it is automatic chain).
C1113 has entered the data and has locked it. When the C1113 will enter the data, the script logic will not been executed.
I have tested it and I have received that:
the script logic has broke when system has tried to write data into database after "Error Work Status check".
If I change the line of script logic as
*XDIM_MEMBERSET ENTITY = C1111,C1113
calculation for C1111 is executed.
Best Regards,
Svetlana.

Work status SPRUNCONVERSION

Hi,
We are using script logic in the package.
We would like to prevent the packed from running on u201Clockedu201D data.
Below is the code of the script. The statuscode of locked data is 3. The maxstatus parameter in stored procedure is set to 1 (unlocked).
*SysLib Stored_Procedure_Wrapper.lgl
//=============================================
// Currency translation logic
//=============================================
*RUN_STORED_PROCEDURE=SPRUNCONVERSION('%APP%','%CATEGORY_SET%','','GLOBAL','%SCOPETABLE%','%LOGTABLE%','' ,'' ,'', 1)
Unfortunately we still can write to the locked intersection.
We are using BPC MS 5.1.
Could you give us some advise how to solve this problem?

Mariusz,
If you define a business rule in a script logic file and call the script
logic file from data manager, the data generated by the business rule
will be posted to a locked data region since the business rule engine
cannot check Work Status. BPC has the limitation of the business rule. It has been earlier requested as an enhancement.

Work Status Report Date and Time Setting

Hi all
We are running BPC10 on servers configured with Central European Time which is currently 2 hours ahead of GMT allowing for Daylight Savings Time.
From what i can see in BPC10 date and times are now stored in GMT (Zulu time) in the Audit activity tables so when a user updates the work status at say 11:00AM local CET time then a value of 09:00AM GMT is stored in the Audit Activity Header table.
We have a report in excel that uses the EVLCK formula and will return the correct value of 11:00 am however if we run the Work Status Audit report on the Planning and Consolidation home page with user preferences set to Central European Time +1 then the time is displayed as 10:00am suggesting that daylight savings time is not accounted for. We need to set the time to Eastern European time +2 hours to display the correct figure.
Can anyone explain why this happens? Has DST been overlooked?

Hi Alan,
probably it's a bug, I think it's better you open an OSS message to SAP.

Work Status Report

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a work status report available in the system? What I would like to see is a summary of which dimensions are locked in BPC so that I can monitor it to ensure that someone doesn't accidentally open something by mistake.
Currently I have to go through BPC Web and check the dimensions manually. If there is no report can someone confirm where the work status data is stored so that I can have one built.
Is this the table (where "finance" is the application) - [dbo].[tblFinanceLock] ??
thanks in advance.

Hi,
You're right, work status information are stored in "tbl<App>Lock".
Concerning your first question, you can build a BPC for Excel report that retrieves work states.
Having for example an expansion on all entities, you can use EVLCK function (from 5.1 version) or EVASV function (in CPM 4.2). You can then do whatever you would like to send it to others via distribution list or other.
Hope this will help.
Kind Regards,
Patrick

How to fix an error (related to work schedule rule) in Time evaluation ?

Hi experts,
I am getting an error while running time evaluation - PT60.
Find the log
Log:TimeEvaluation General data
Schema ZM04 Time Evaluation Without Clock Times
00753402 Christoudas Natalie
Customizing error in work schedule rule 1 VM 01 5MTWTF Person rejected: 00753402
How to fix it? Its urgent.
Be assured of points for useful answers.
Rajesh

Hi All,
I have checked work schedules and work sc. rules. everything looks fine. Reason being fine, same work schrdule rule, i.e. 5MTWTF is used for other employees, whose payroll area, personnel area, personnel subarea, employee group and employee subgroups are same.
Why it is throwing error for one employee 753402.
I am providing you more information. In table V_T569r, if u select recalculation category as time evaluation, it is mentioned as 01.01.2003. Initially, one action called "Conversion take on" has been maintained as on 01.03.2002, where employee had payroll area -99 (payroll irrelevant) and personnel subarea - DAYY.
Then on 17.03.2008, another action ran "Conversion initial reassignment" where payroll area changed to "MT - monthly", subarea changed to DAYF. At that time PDC recalculation date in infotype 0003 was 01.03.2002 which was before recalculation date, i.e. 01.01.2003.
Time evaluation was throwing 2 error messages. one was solved by changing PDC recaluation date to 17.03.2008. But other error related to work sc rule 1 VM 01 5MTWTF still occurs.
Can some body now provide some useful information?
Thanks
Rajesh

HI, there are 8 steps you need to do below:
1. Group Personnel Subareas for the Daily Work Schedule
2. Group Personnel Subareas for the Work Schedule
3. Define Break Schedules
4. Define Daily Work Schedules
5. Define Period Work Schedules
6. Define Employee Subgroup Groupings
7. Define Groupings for the Public Holiday Calendar
8. Set Work Schedule Rules and Work Schedules
All of them belong to TIME MANAGEMENT. I think you miss some steps above.
Please check it again.

How to create and implement a new work schedule rule successfully?

Dear Community,
How to create and implement a new work schedule rule successfully?
In other words, what are all the basic steps to create and implement a new work schedule rule successfully?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Follow the below steps to create Work Schedule:
Holiday Calendar
Transaction Code: SCAL
Holiday calendar comprises of list of paid holidays to be given to employees on festivals by the company.
Personnel Area/SubArea Groupings
Go to SPRO --> Time Management --->Work Schedules --> Personnel SubArea Groupings
Maintain perosnnel area/Subarea groupings for work schedule.
i.e. Suppose in Mumbai you have WS = GEN ( 10 to 6) and in Chennai you have WS = NORM ( 8 to 4 )
Work Schedule
Go to SPRO --> Time Management --->Work Schedules -->Daily Work Schedules
Go to SPRO --> Time Management --->Work Schedules -->Period Work Schedules
Daily Work Schedule is actually your office timings with breaks (paid /unpaid) i.e. Planned Working Time which is then included
in Period Work Schedule to make a week ( M T W T F S S )
Daily Work Schedule (i.e. Day) -
> Period Work Schedule (i.e. Week)
Work Schedule Rules
Go to SPRO --> Time Management --->Work Schedules -->Work Schedule Rules and Work Schedules
After doing above mentioned configurations,maintain employee group/subgroup groupings in which you have to define which calendar is applicable for which type of employees for which work schedule.
You will maintain this work schedule in infotype 0007 - Planned Working Time of employee via transaction code - PA30
