sap fox formula data scope

2023-09-01T01:35:06+02:00

Hi SAP experts,

1. In the BPC standard we can use XDIM_MEMBERSET to scope data for our calculation/logic purposes. What should I do to do the same thing in the Fox formula?

2. In the BPC standard we can use EXPRESSION=0 to remove data. What should I do to do the same thing in the Fox formula?

3. I faced challenges when reading SAP help related to the Fox keyword FOREACH IN VARIABLE, FOREACH IN REFDATA, and FOREACH IN SELECTION. Could you please give me some examples to use those keywords?

Thanks,

Filter in exit variable can not handle amount of data

2023-09-22T10:57:52+02:00

Hello,

we have a planning sequence with filter. As a filter we have a variable exit. From time to time the result of the exit is that much that the planning sequence end with termination. Is this a known issue? Any ideas how to fix it?

Managing New profit center codes in SAC Planning that are not present while performing planning.

2023-09-24T22:38:11+02:00

Hi SAP folks,

The business has a requirement to see Plan Vs Actual data store wise in SAC.

Each store is mapped to a profit & cost center.

Planning cycle is done for April to March Fiscal year. Team begins planning in the month of January.

In January, there are certain stores that the business plans to open up in the month of August, Sept. But there are no such profit centers codes created yet in the system.
What should be the way this is managed in SAC planning (since it is not necessary that the store might actually open)? Also ensuring, once the profit center code is created then plan Vs Actuals gets reported based on the profit center?

Regards,

Gavin.

How to restrict the value help for a “characteristic as key figure” input enabled cell?

2023-09-26T11:25:45+02:00

How to restrict the value help ("Select Member") for a “characteristic as key figure” input enabled cell in SAP Analysis for Office. By default, all master data values are displayed.

Can anyone advise on MPS & SIOP ratio . In order to achieve 100% ratio.

2023-09-28T10:22:06+02:00

SAP data evaluated

MPS coverage ratio is simply calculating if all active FING or SFIN SAP materials managed for MPS planning are managed in MPS families.

We want to ensure that we run MPS for all active production materials in order to secure component purchase and give correct visibility to our suppliers at the end.

SAP table used to get the data and final calculation

PGMI - family and material assignment
S915E - material assignment to MPS structure
MARA/MARC - material master data

Main conditions to get all activa materials to compare with family assignment

If the same part number can be in several Family, we remove them
If the column “Flag Material for Deletion” contain Yes for some lines, we remove them
if material is assigned as “00-New” or “10-Obsolete” or “99-Blocked” (MARC-MMSTA) we remove them
MRP group and MRP profiles taken into account

FING material type

and MRP group = “0001” or “0011” or
and if combination* MRP profile = FG03 then MRP group = “0003”
and if combination* MRP profile = FG06 then MRP group = “0002”

SFIN material type

and MRP dependency to dependent requirement (MARC-AHDIS) = “1” (set up in MRP4 material view)

Remark: (*) the MRP group combination with FG03 and FG06 MRP profiles included in BW calculation logic is inherited from old business process dashboard

Can anyone help me.

SAC Planning via BPC: .submitData() for two tables with the same live model

2023-09-28T15:40:15+02:00

Hi Experts,

i am trying to distribute value from one table to another which share the same model (live connection bw query).

So code goes similar to this:

var resultset_A = Table_A.getDataSource().getResultSet();

var value_A = resultset_A[0][Alias.MeasureDimension].rawValue / countervariable;

//Zeroing the initial value

Table_A.getPlanning().setUserInput({"@MeasureDimension":"abc", "Dimension1":"xyz", "Dimension2":"0001"}, "0");

Table_A.getPlanning().submitData();

//Writing it into another selections with the countervariable calculation

Table_B.getPlanning().setUserInput({"@MeasureDimension":"abc", "Dimension1":"xyz", "Dimension":"0002"}, "value_A");

Table_B.getPlanning().submitData();

The problem is now with the first Table_A.submitData(). It refreshes also Table_B and while Table_B is also loading/refreshing the code Table_B.submitData() seems to have problems submitting the values because it is in an "Illegal State" (Maybe cause refresh?!). Both submitData return true though.

Do i really need to have somehow a hidden table where both columns i want to change are in the same table widget?

Max

Reason for the difference between RSA5 and RSA6 data

2023-10-06T10:59:09+02:00

Hello,

The data on the RSA5 and RSA6 screens in the development system are different, and the data on the RSA5 and RSA6 screens in the test system are equal to each other (SAP-R/3 - LO - MVKE table's fields). I looked to see if the porting to a customization test system in the dev system could have been forgotten, but I saw that the customizations in the MM module were the same in the development and test system. Where can there be a difference? How can I tell what's causing the problem?

Best regards,

Create planned orders only for subcomponents of production orders.

2023-11-08T13:28:02+01:00

Hello experts, the products we manufacture have many sub-components, and I need to place orders for these components. When MRP runs, it also generates planned orders for the sub-components, so I currently calculate the sub-component requirements manually. I only want the production orders to create planned orders for the sub-components. How can I achieve this? The company has recently started using SAP

Migration of Planning applications and Consolidation to BW4HANA

2023-12-26T06:41:21+01:00

Recently we went live with SAP BW/4HANA system.

During this process we have already installed and configured migration cockpit (shell migration) via our old BW 7.01 SP20 system, and used it to migrate all BW only objects (which are not a part of BI-IP A /BPS OBJECTS).

Since we already did it via BW only object our question is as follows:

Since very little info on this issue:

Any recommendations about migration process with our BW 7.01 sp20 system for BI-IP A /BPS OBJECTS to BPC 11 embedded (with Analysis) ?

Salient Features in B4HANA

2024-01-09T07:31:45+01:00

Hi All,

I would like to know where can we find these features in B4HANA system.

1) In BW 7.5, we have a feature in info package of "Color of Traffic light for an Empty request".

Where do we have this setting in DTP in B4 HANA?

2) In B4HANA, while activating Datamart datastore object, we have an option of " Activation with Zero elimination".

How to include this step in process chain?

Material kitting for items used in parallel (multiple packaging) - looking for solution

2024-02-15T09:58:17.101000+01:00

Hello everybody,

I am looking for a solution for the following cases:

Once the MO is released, the TO is received in the WH automatically and the users start the material kitting process (picking). Sometimes, some of the materials are used in parallel on the same line, but different assembly locations. The WH is informed for the total quantity needed, but not for the different number of packaging, due to the parallel usage.

example: total TO qty needed 10k pcs = 1 SU (packaging)

Issue: used in 3 sections in the line => 3 SUs (packaging) are needed = either 30k pcs or to repack the 10k to 3,33k in 3 packaging.

Do you know if there is a standard configuration that could solve this gap?

Thanks in advance and appreciate if you could share ideas.

Can recognize # as one of combination of CR?

2024-03-15T07:29:15.135000+01:00

Hi experts,

We implemented Characteristic Relationship - Create method using Exit Class.

But a problem has occurred.

ADSO 1 (combination is here) has # as one of fields member.

Then, Query recognize that one as "All Combination of Master Data" (I think...)

If it worked, the result combination will be 150,

but because of the field (which has #, one of member), the result combination is 210,000...

some blog says the buffer logic on create method can fix this situation, but i don't know how to implement it...
