YTD and Periodic

Hi Experts,
I have had a request from a client to build a balance sheet. The issue is that they have been using BPC 7.5 on a periodic basis for the finance application. They want a balance sheet to now be built and this has to be at YTD.
Their application parameters is not set to YTD.
Its is possible to build a YTD balance sheet with the application parameters set to periodic.
TIA
HHDJ

Hi there,
Are they currently loading balance sheet data on YTD or Periodic basis?
If they are already loading data to the B/S then you can just set the measure to YTD in instead of Periodic.
However if they want to start loading YTD B/S data into a Periodic application then that cannot be done because the application has been already setup as Periodic.
Could you create another App that's strictly YTD or convert the YTD B/S via an ETL process to make it Periodic?
HTH,
John

Exporting YTD and PERIODIC data

Hi all,
I've adjusted a data manager package so that the YTD and PERIODIC measures are automatically selected for export to a flat file. Whenever I want to save the package the script automatically changes and removes either YTD or PERIODIC.
Any idea how I can change the script so that both YTD and PERIODIC measures are exported to a flat file?
Thank you.

Should I just break down and buy server space to exchange complete files?
This the way I do with my co-work production or when work in a team with guys who live out of my country. You can pack/archive the whole project folder into Zip or (Rar - I do that using my PC) which reduces the project folder content globally.
There are quite many "free hosts" in our days so you can manage your work via Email or Skype and use such servers if you can not afford to buy any hosting space. To my opinion it is best to provide the original project when you use same apps, plugins etc. Any tricky export, audio file compression etc will be time consuming for your partner...

Loading data - YTD vs Periodic

Just to confirm...you cannot load some data as YTD and some as MTD, correct? Same app, same scenario.

Within a data file, you can mix records (different accounts) with YTD and Periodic. But I have not tried mixing YTD and Periodic records for same account and load it with "Accumulate within file" option.

P & L report for current period,YTD and previous YTD

I am trying to create a P & L report with the columns for current period,YTD and previous YTD, I have include the measures as the key of columns, which by using period or YTD we can retrieve the current period and YTD column, is there as easy way to get the previous YTD? although I can get it by using evtim to het every month and calculate the previous YTD.

resolved, just need to bring both time and measures in the columns

BPC Consolidation application - YTD or periodic

Hi,
YTD or Periodic - For legal consolidation (IFRS, USGAAP), what would be the best option for a customer with ECC, BW and BPC landscape. Are there any major issues in mapping specific consolidation process in YTD application (like reconciliation with ECC data ect).

Hello Lokesh,
The IFRS focuses mainly on the reporting aspects of financial results of an enterprise. Consolidated or not, for all listed companies, these requirements impose strict norms that need to be adhered to for reporting the financial results. Therefore, if an enterprise has many subsidiaries and the numbers are reported for the group as per the IFRS norms, it still presupposes that ALL the norms have been adhered to.
In respect of Business Objects Planning and Consolidation, SAP has come up with a Starter Kit for IFRS adoption. It is pre-configured with all reports, controls and rules for performing, validating and publishing a statutory consolidation in accordance with IFRS standards. An enterprise may have the desired setting for its Consolidation Definition. One of the settings is choosing a pre-defined variant that allows it to have either Periodic or YTD setting to be selected for a given category, data period and currency. For more information, follow this link:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/bofc10/en/FC10_SK_IFRS_ConfDesc_en.pdf
In my view, for legal consolidation, the consolidated financial information is valid only if it is YTD. The periodic values are needed only for calculating the movements - for Statement of Cash Flows. This aspect is well taken care of in the Consolidation Processing u2013 either Full Processing or Incremental processing.
If you want to reconcile the balances as per ECC, BI as well as BPC, you have to consider only the YTD values.
Hope this gives adequate information for clarifying your doubt.

Using variable 0P_FPER to calculate YTD Fiscal period

Could someone please explain the procedure for creating a variable which will use the value entered from the variable 0P_FPER - Period/Fiscal Year (Single Value Entry, Required) to calculate the YTD Fiscal Period.
Regards,
Craig Stephen

You have to create a Customer Exit variable for this :
<b>Customer Exit - > YTD from Fiscal Period</b>
<b>Let ZVCCYTDX be the tech name of Customer Exit Variable & 0P_FPER be the user entered variable for Fiscal Year Period.</b>
User Exit: ZVCCYTDX
Input: 0P_FPER
Output: Jan of Accident Year Range
Logic Description:
WHEN 'ZVCCYTDX'.
if i_step = 2.
clear loc_var_range.
loop at i_t_var_range into loc_var_range WHERE vnam = '0P_FPER '.
if sy-subrc = 0.
curr_year = loc_var_range-low(4).
concatenate curr_year '001' into jan_accidentyear.
CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
L_S_RANGE-LOW = jan_accidentyear.
L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'EQ'.
append l_s_range to e_t_range.
exit.
**endif.
endloop.
endif.
**Coding is not required if you can enhance the Datatarget with Fiscal Year and Posting Period.

YTD or Periodic ? Also the impact of Force Closing parameter

Dear expert,
I have 2 question :
1. YTDINPUT in Application Parameter :
Is there any concern if i put the parameter with Periodic ? For Example : Any function in bpc that cannot run in periodic data, maybe carry foward function?
What is the major consideration when i have to choose the periodic or ytd parameter?
2. In automatic adjustment at the business rules detail.
There is column named Force Closing.
I put the Source Flow is F0440 = ( Closing Balance Type )
I Put Destination Flow is Blank ( From what i'm read, it will write same as the Sorce Flow )
And I put The Force Closing is Check
Is that any problem with that ? Like Double data ?
Thx
Suprapto

Dear Wandi,
Thanks for your answer, but i think i need to be clear with my question:
For case no. 1:
I see in BPC Documentation, the recommended value in YTDInput Paramter is YTD and not periodic.
Why the recommended value is YTD ?
Out of the customer needs, what is the best pratices in bpc to store data in Legal Application , YTD or Periodic ?
Because, BPC comes with great function ( store procedure, business rules, etc ) example : business rules can set up to carry foward the value ,
If the parameter set to periodic, is the function that created in bpc will have to re-script again to make the value carry foward ?
Please see my cases not just only in carry foward case, but the consideration if the periodic is setup then what features in bpc that i have to re-create again manually in script.
For case no 2:
My service patch is 7.0.112
IF my settings is like that ? is it will create a dupplicate value ?
Because the source value is the ending balance, the destination is ending balance and the force closing is check.
From what i'm read in document, the force closing will create value in the ending value. Am I will create dupplicate data if the source value is the ending balance, the destination is ending balance and the force closing is check ?
Thanks for your help.

Convert YTD to Periodic

Is the default view (i.e. Periodic, YTD) an application setting or is it a setting for each individual Scenario?
We have an application where all of the scenarios have a default view of YTD. We would like to convert this to Periodic. I've found a setting in the Scenario dimension that is labeled "DefaultView". If I change this value will the scenario change to a periodic? Obviously I will need to make some changes to Rules, Journals, etc... but will this one setting change the scenario to a periodic scenario? I've been told that I will have to create an entirely new application.

Yes you can set each Scenario up with a different view if you want.
For example we have the default view set for Actual, and Plan as YTD and PlanFC as Periodic.

YTD or Periodic application

Hi all,
I must create a new application and I should choose whether to set it as Periodic or YTD.
Which one should you suggest to use? Is it only a matter of reporting or there might be other things to consider, such as performances of the db and so on? What are the main benefits with the different solutions?
Thanks a lot for your help
Francesco Gavarini

In a YTD app, YTD is the base member and Periodic is calculated. In a Periodic app, Periodic is the base member and YTD is calculated.
Think about how your users will enter data into this application and how data will be loaded through automated processes. Will users enter monthly or quarter balances or do they enter Year-To-Date balances? If they enter monthly balances and send those on an input schedule, then make your app a periodic app. If they enter YTD balances, then make it a YTD app. Keep in mind you can have a YTD app and a Periodic app in the same Appset, depending on what your requirements are.
Also, what is your logic going to run calculations on? Is it going to run calcs on YTD amounts or Periodic amounts?

Getting YTD and month same time

Dear Guru,
My source is providing that-month figures and from here, I can derive the YTD. But if I need to stage the 2 types of KFs together in the same record, how would you recommend to do it generally?
Thanks,
Suzie

Hi Suzie,
Have you looked at the available content variables for determining both the YTD and the month figures. I think you should be able to achieve both the figures in BEx report using the standard variables available for characteristic Fiscal year/period. Give it a try
Hope it helps

Consingment stock report with values and periods..

hello guys,
i have an issue here.. consignmet stock are "managed" within SD. Is there a standard report which cointains info about consigment stock, its amounts (values) and periods ?
Main point here - consingment stock is processed within SD, so for example t.code MB54 is not useful here .
Thanks guys !
Best regards,
Laimonas

Hi......MB54 wont help since that shows the Vendor consignment stocks.
Use MB52 creatively like this.
Goto MB52
Put your plant name.
In the section 'Selection : Special stock', Mark the check box and put 'W' in Special Stock indicator.
Choose the other settings as per your choice.
Execute.
Now you will see a whole lot of stocks along wioth the Consignment stocks. If you only want to see the consignment stocks, do like this
In the list, put you cursor on the column 'S' which is special stock (i think the 4th colm in the list). Now choose the filter icon and put the filter criteria a 'W' i.e. customer consignment stock.
You can save this is a variant with a name, say /ZCONS.
Now come back to the initial MB52 screen. In the bottom section for display options, put this variant name in the field Layout.
So now when you next run the report with this variant, you will only get the customer consignment stocks with their values.
Hope this helps.

How to populate member values to Year and Period Dimensions

Hi,
I have set up the following members in account dimension:
Lease From (Date Type)
Lease To (Date Type)
Lease Amount (Currency Type)
If I input Jan-2012 in Lease From, Nov-2013 in Lease To and 1,000 in Lease Amount, all in BegBalance->Fy12, how can I populate the 1,000 to the correponding Period and Year dimensions using business rule. I need 1,000 in Lease Amount->Fy12->Jan all way through to Lease Amount->Fy13->Nov. I do not want to create a input form with all the years and periods for monthly input as I may have over 100 lease information with different from and to dates.
Or is there any alternate method I can get the expected results.
Thanks.

Hi
This is a really complex problem! It may help you to look at the documentation around the CapEx planning module as this is Oracle's take on calculating asset depreciation etc on a similar basis (create asset in BegBalance -> NoYear and calculate which periods to poulate depreciation data in using dates, variables and rules). The business rules are presented in full in the doc below but I warn you the code is complex and not easy to understand, although you may get the principles
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/cpx_admin_11122.pdf
You ought to be able to do something using dates and period / year indicies (remember dates are stored in Essbase in something like the format YYYYMMDD, e.g. 20121107 so should be easy to compare whether the date for the period is within range of the dates entered).
I have also tried to do something similar using smartlists in a prototype before but this proved a bit more complicated and not necessarily any more reliable than using dates
Hope this helps

How to club the downpayment and periodic billing scenario in Sales Order

Hi experts,
Could you please let me know how to club the downpayment and periodic billing scenario in Sales Order.
Requirement is : If you have 10 lacs total amount and out of that 50% should be the downpayment and rest of the amount should be distributed among three equated instalments for 2 months each (periodic billing). This should work with one line item in sales order. Pls provide relevant inputs how to work out this scenario.
Your help would be appreciable.
regards....Diwakaran

Hi Yang,
Workflow is the best approach for any issue related to business objects.
Since you want call FM BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE, it will change SO. It means everytime any SO is changed there will an event being triggered.
object type: BUS2032
event: Changed
simple solution:
1. Please create object type (SWO1) and its super type should be BUS2032.
2. Add your own method and attach your custom FM which actually updates the qty & PR)
3. Create Task (PFTC_INS)
in basic data:
- provide object type which you have created
- provide method which you have added
goto triggering events tab
- Choose Object Category as BOR object type
- provide object type (better give BUS2032)
- provide event as CHANGED
Please have look into very nice video blog which helps you to create your workflow.

Need help in dynamic report for a range of year and period

Dear all,
I need help in creating an ALV report with dynamic columns based on the Year and period entered on the selection screen. for example if in the year we enter 2002 and period range from 10 to 12 then we should get the 3 columns display for cost(example) for period 10/2002, 11/2002 and 12/2002.
Can anyone help me in achieving this dynamically since the user can enter the year also in intervals along with the period and data also needs to be populated in the corresponding columns.
An example code would be of great help.
Thanks,
Amit
