Copy operator strange behaviour

$
0
0

Hello Experts,

 

I am using Copy operator to copy 20  KF pairs ( 20 source KFs to 20 Target KF)... System is not copying more than 10 KFs....Looks like there is a limitation of 10 KF pairs in one operator..

 

Any one experienced similar issue?

 

Thanks,

Krishna


Documentation for COPY Operator

$

I've a couple of questions regarding the COPY operator.

 

1. What is the difference between using the parameter SOURCE_KFID and PRE_SOURCE_KFID?

2. Can there be only one SOURCE_KFID for multiple TARGET_KFIDs? In other words, if KF-TEST has to be copied to KF-TEST1 and KF_TEST2, what is the most optimal method to do that?

 

Is there any documentation for configuring the COPY operator?

 

 

Thanks in advance,

Chendur

Copy operator strange behaviour

Hi,

 

I created a copy operator and activated the planning area. However I do not see the new copy operator in excel add-in. What could be the issue?


Also can we use copy operator to copy data from one snapshot key figure to another snapshot key figure?

 

Thanks

HCI - Test failed for connection with IBP datastore

$

0

Hi all,


In HCI, I have added the only datastore with type "SAP HANA application cloud", which is the IBP tenant of our customer.


When I test the connection with default configuration, I get the following error message :


Test failed for the default configuration 'default' of datastore : 'Customer_Name': [10]: invalid username or password


My HCI user has the following roles:

- Production Operator

- Administrator

- Integration Developer


Any ideas what might be the cause of the problem?

I guess it's a configuration issue in the link between HCI and IBP tenant?


Thanks,


Pierre

Templates HCI-DS : Server not registered

Hi all,

 

In HCI-DS, I am trying to use the template "SOP_MD_ProductMaster" to extract Product MD from ECC to IBP.

In the data flow, when I try to execute the task, it ends with the following error :

 

RFC CallReceive error <Function /BODS/RFC_ABAP_INSTALL_AND_RUN: RFC_ABAP_MESSAGE- Exception condition "SERVER_NOT_REGISTERED"

 

Extracting data from ECC using a simple table or extractor works well.

 

Any ideas what might be the cause of the problem?

 

Thanks,

Decimals in S&OP - clarification needed

$
0
0

Hello S&OP Community

 

I am looking for a clarification as to how decimal places
in S&OP work or behave. It is my understanding that this comes into play in
places.

    

A – When defining an attribute and it is intended to use
it as a key figure, one would choose DECIMAL as data type. By default, the length
is 18 and 6 decimal digits, the places after the decimal sign. I believe this
is set directly in the HANA database. Is this correct? Can this setting be
changed, e.g. to 20 length and only 4 decimal digits? At my customer, most of
the key figure data comes in with 4 digits – I assume when loading the system
will just will the remaining/last 2 digits with zeros.

    

B – When defining there actually and as far as I know, no
place to see or to define the length and the decimal digits. Is the setting for
key figures the same as for an attribute with data type DECIMAL, meaning a length
of 18 and 6 decimal digits? If different, what maximum length can a key figure
have and how many decimal places? Same as for part (A) of my question, would
the system load any key figure data with 4 decimal places and then fill in any
further decimal places with zeros? That would be my assumption but experience
has shown that it is always good to validate an assumption.

    

Which decimal separator is the system using? Comma or period
point?

Is this a global setting and can it be changed somewhere?

 

Thank you,

Jens


Error: Output table '3_101' has no column 'W1SPCODENUM' in the signature of the main function

$

Hi,

 

I have created PRODUCT master attribute Special Code. It is configured as a key / required along with PRDID i.e. the combination of PRDID + Special Code denotes my marketing product as I have the following situation:

 

PRDID  |   Special Code

100001  |   SC1

100001  |   SC2

....so a distinct product in my master data is a combination of PRDID & Special Code.

 

Steps followed:

  1. Copy SAP 2 , create a new planning area WTECH
  2. Add new attribute WSPCODE to WPRODUCT master data, also add it to those simple master data types which have PRDID
  3. Sequentially activate attributes and time profile
  4. Add WSPCODE manually to the planning area attributes
  5. Activate the planning area
  6. Add the forecasting parameters and add the Supply planning operator: SCM to the planning area WTECH
  7. Manually add the WSPCODE to those planning levels which have PRDID in them
  8. Re-activate the planning area : <Error encountered>

 

Error: E - Exception raised from InternalError: dberror(PreparedStatement.execute): 2048 - column store error: fail to create scenario:  [34011] Inconsistent calculation model;CalculationNode (3_101) -> operation (CustomLOp):Output table '3_101' has no column 'WSPCODENUM' in the signature of the main function,Details (Errors):

  - CalculationNode (3_101) -> operation (CustomLOp): Output table '3_101' has no column 'WSPCODENUM' in the signature of the main function

 

As I understand this error means that the forecasting / supply algorithms do not recognize WSPCODE as its a custom attribute.

Request your advice on how to resolve this error. Can I create a composite key for PRODUCT master data (PRDID + Special Code) in the first place? If not, then how do I address my issue where the client product master data has combination key with PRDID referring to marketing part num and Special Code to the different dies. the demand data is to be generated at marketing part num + Special code.

 

Thank you,

IBP S&OP - Cloud or on-premise ?

$

Working on a IBP S&OP pre-study now, where the customer does not have a  cloud-strategy in place yet.

 

Looking for a good and well-documented white-paper describing IBP S&OP's cloud security, confidential data security, authorisation concept etc.

Can you guide with a link to this (if it exists) ?

 

We would very much like to go for the cloud solutions, since the on-premise solution is not available yet.

Hi all,

 

In HCI, I am trying to add the Key Figure target table (from "Timeseries folder") and source table (from "Calculation Scenario Folder") to my IBP datastore.

In both cases, I have the following error message :

 

Cannot retrieve metadata - GetMetadata remote error: Could not find tables for ...

 

HCI error KF.jpg

 

Additional information :

- Test connection for this IBP datastore is successful

- I can add Master Data tables to this IBP datastore and use them to load data

- The related Planning Area is activated

- In this Planning Area, I have already loaded data into some KFs using IBP web UI

 

Any ideas what might be the cause of the problem?


Thanks,

Planning Level Hierarchy

Hi,

 

Based on the customization requirement from one of our client, I have to create a new Planning Level with new set of KFs attached to it.

The Query is:

 

If I create a new Planning Level say, PerProdLocABCXYZ, will this level be automatically included in the PerProdLoc Planning Level hierarchy?

If no, then what do I have to do to include this Planning Level in PerProdLoc Planning Level Hierarchy?

Hi Gurus,

 

We are working on a S&OP Demo, we understand that Cost Per Unit Key Figure shows the cost of an end-product, but it's only updated when Dependent Demand exists for the concrete time-period.

 

What is the definition of Dependent Demand Key Figure?  and Which is the relation with Cost Per Unit?

 

 

Thanks in advance!

IBP Demand Planning Statistical Forecasting - How to select Alpha,Beta,Gama?

Hi,

We are currently on Release 4.0 Support Pack 2 and attempting to get the most out of the statistical forecasting tools that are avaialble. Considering that the only outcomes are Linear, Trend or Seasonal generating consistant reliable forecasts appears to be a hit-miss approach.  All Alpha, Beta and Gama entries need to be manually entered for IBP to then select the optimum result.  Does anyone have a solution that can use historical data to generate an IBP starting point for the number of historical months / A-B-G parameters?

 

Thanks

How to delete Key Figure values In the Past

$

Hello,

 

I am working on a scenario based on SAP2 template which has an offset of -4 months as a predefined value.

I would like to reinitialize the scenario getting 0's for all the key figures related to inventory.

 

My idea is as follows:

 

  1. 1. Generate 0's for all the past horizon for Total Saleable Qty Key Figure
  2. 2. Execute a Profit Optimization Model getting a 0's for Constrained Demand Plan Qty Key Figures
  3. 3. Validate that all the Inventory related key figures are 0 like the Projected inventory in the DC's due to 0s on Demand.

 

In order to be able to edit Total Saleable Qty key Figure I have thought in the next options:

 

a. Change the offset to -28, all the past horizon, for the planning area and make the key figures editable. Change values to 0.

  1. b. Change the configuration of Total Saleable Qty key figure form "Editable in the Current or Future" to "All Editable". Make the changes and undo the configuration modification.

 

 

I would be really pleased if you could help me with this point.

Is this the best option to reinitialize the Past values?

Which is the best practice for this aim?

 

Thank you very much.

What's Cost Per Unit Key Figure?

$
0
0

Hi Gurus,

 

We thought that Cost Per Unit was the cost of holding inventory in the concrete location, but before some testing we can't see that.

 

That's our Key figure definition

Untitled.png


1- What is Cost Per unit?

2- Cost Per Unit value is recalculated by Profit Optimization Process even if we update the Key figure manually?
3- If Cost Per Unit depends of Dependent Demand, (Which is a calculated Key Figure) How can we define Cost Per Unit?

4- Where can we define Inventory Holding Cost.

 

Many thanks in advance!

Master Data Types not found under Planning Area

$

Hello Experts,

 

We are on IBP 4.0 Support Pack 2 Patch 1.

 

In IBP Configuration Web UI - In "Planning Area and Details" tab,  When SAP2 Planning Area is selected, I do NOT find some of the master data types which I expect to see like - Location Product, Resource Location, Resource Location Product etc. However I do see few MDTs shown under it like Component, Customer, Customer Product, Location, Product, Resource etc. My dropdown is set to - "Selected Attributes". Note, I am able to view all those MDTs from IBP Excel Add-in using Manage option when connected to SAP2, not through Config UI in SAP2.

 

And when I set my dropdown to "Available Attributes", I am able to find those master data types, but surprisingly they do NOT have checkbox marked as selected.

 

Am I missing anything? Why those MDTs are not shown as Selected? Aren't those part of SAP2 model?

 

Please help.

 

Thank you
