PS

Project Functionality of - SAP-PS (Project System)
The Project System module of SAP (PS) is specifically designed to provide comprehensive and fully
integrated project management functionality for SAP customers. When it was originally designed and
developed its core functionality was borrowed from and shared with the PP and CO modules.
So most of the PS objects (WBS elements, networks, activities, activity elements) are cost objects
similar to cost centers in CO, while networks have scheduling and resource management capabilities
that are very similar to PP. Whenever you need flexibility and frequent user interaction for resource
loaded scheduling activities, you still feel the remnants of an architecture and user interface that was
originally designed for the more static context of PP.
Shortcomings include user-friendliness since SAP did not manage to satisfactorily put the end user in
control to easily manipulate the data. In that respect, SAP's unsurpassed enterprise functionality often
is perceived as an issue by end-users. Also, and somewhat ironically, PS and PP are not seamlessly
integrated. This means that costs or dates do not roll up or cannot be pushed down between PS &PP.
What is SAP PS?

Projects are generally part of the internal processes of a company. To be able to control all tasks
in project execution, you need an organizational form that is specific to the project and which is
shared by all departments involved. Before you can carry out a project in its entirety, the project
goals must be precisely described and the project activities to be carried out must be structured.
A clear, unambiguous project structure is the basis for successful project planning, monitoring,
and control.
The high degree of integration between the Project System (PS) and other R/3 application
components means that you can plan, execute, and account for projects as part of your normal
commercial procedures. This means the Project System has constant access to data in all the
departments involved in the project.
The R/3 PS guarantees close and constant monitoring of all aspects of your project including
both technical and commercial aspects of the project.
Versions in Project Systems

Explain the type of version in SAP Project Systems. Basically, there are different kinds of
versions in PS. They are:
1. Project versions - these are basically snapshots of a project at different stages of a project.
Based on how the system is set up, a version could be created everytime the system status of a
project object is changed, for example. Or, you could manually create a project version in
transaction CNS41 or the like. You could create a version with a key and then you could compare
the different snapshots of a project against each other or against version 0 (operative project).
2. Simulation versions - these are essentially "play around with" versions. Meaning that you
could use them to try "what if" kind of scenario by changing dates, structure, milestones, etc...
and compare results with the operative version. For example, you may want to determine what
the impact is going to be of a certain change to the project before making the actual change to the
operative project. Then, you could create a simulation version, play around with it to make sure it
does what you want it to do, then make the actual change to the operative change or you could
convert the simulation version to the operative version also. I am not sure if they are hidden
issues in doing this, but to make the point here, the simulation version is a "play ground" for
"what if" scenarii for the project. The main difference, I believe, between the project and
simulation versions is that project versions cannot be changed/modified once they are copied,
while simulation versions can be. Also, you cannot copy a project version to an operative
version, but you can copy a simulation version to an operative version.
3. Planning/Controlling versions - these are the versions used for storing different kinds of
planning details for the project. Essentially, these versions are also "operational" and can be
changed as needed. For example, you may want to keep the operative version (version 0) always
for actual costs, while you will use planning version P1 to store planned values from ECP, then
version P2 for Unit Costing values, etc... Unlike simulation versions however, you cannot copy a
planned version to the operational
project (I don't think). You can however, copy one plan version to the other.
4. Progress Versions - These versions are used for carrying out Earned Value Analysis and other
measurements against project progress based on POC, etc. Progress version is controlling area
specific and defines the control data for POC and earned values. It is mandatory to maintain
progress version along with method of calculation. The system records progress analysis data in
the progress version. That is why you can get the result only if you maintain it in the progress tab
of WBS.
SPRO -> Project System -> Progress-> Progress Analysis -> Define Measurement Method as
Default.
Here you define the Version, Object Type, Plan/Actual, Default Measurement Method.
After that Version would be defaulted for the object in the hierarchy.
SAP PS Basics of Project System- http://www.sap-basis-abap.com/sapps.htm

This course covers basic SAP Project System in 10 lessons, including master data, project
planning, acquisitions, network activities and settlements using the new Project Builder. This is
an interactive simulation course and includes simulated SAP screens. This allows you to interact
with the screens just like a real SAP system, including entering data in fields and clicking on
buttons or links.
SAP PS Training Goals- This course will help you become familiar with SAPs PS (Project
System) module using the Project Builder. You will learn how to:
Create a Project with Work Breakdown Structures (WBS) & Network Activities
Create Project Plans with Easy Cost Planning and Project Planning Board
Create Requisitions and Purchase Orders for WBS
Run Settlements
Run Project Reports
This SAP PS training uses ECC 6.0 (newest SAP release) and includes 420+ training slides,
study guide for each lesson, 60+ pages of additional SAP documentation and email support.
The training is very clear and easy to understand. The fact that it can be done anytime is a
great feature as I could do it at home with no interruptions. Also having the capability to back
up and repeat a process is extremely helpful. With no set time limits, when I was ready to book
an asset, I could review just that section and get pointers right on the spot.

How to delete PS master data and transaction data?
This is a complex one. SAP usually does not allow you to delete anything. You will have to
archive and then delete the objects. If there are "bad" projects without any transactional activity,
you can mark the projects with status DLFL. To archive, use transaction code SARA.
You will have to get your entire functional team - MM, SD, FI, CO, PS - and decide on a
module-by-module and transaction-by-transaction basis on the best approach to purge this data.
You will also have to think about auditing and retrieval if this is production data.
Solution is Archiving. It's a seperate process better consult you basis consultants for this.
Archiving object you should be looking at is PS_PROJECT (T Code SARA)

How to schedule the network within the dates provided in the network header?
The problem is that every time I schedule the network, scheduling happens as per the date
given in assigned WBSE & not as per the dates specified in NTW Header.
Go to Project Planning Board. Click on the "Options" icon.
- Select the "Scheduling" option.
- On the tab "Scheduling parameters for activities", the "Scheduling method" selected should be
"X Network determines dates". In your case I believe it is "WBS determines dates".
You can set this in SPRO-->Project System-->Dates-->Date Planning in WBS-->Define
parameters for WBS scheduling--> Select Scheduing method as "X Network determines dates"

Planned Cost Differs from Actual Cost

Question : I have a problem. I have a standard activity which the price is $1 / hr. I have created
a project in which a activity has a planned hr of qty 1. But my planned cost comes in as '$0.83'.
But when I comfirm my activity, the actual cost comes in as '$1'.
Why is my planned cost differing? What is the cause of the $0.83 instead of $1. Where can i
check and change this.
Answer : I guess that you use different costing (and valuation) variants. so the system might
valuate plan and actuals differently.
Question : Where and how do i control it?
Answer : In the network header are two fields: one for the plan costing variant and one for the
actual costing variant.
You maintain the costing variants in the customizing: PS -> Costs -> Planned Costs -> Automatic
Costing in Networks -> Costing -> Define Costing Variants. Display the costing variant and
jump to the valuation variant. There you find how the determines the costs.
Validations in PS
Question : I am trying to use validation in the Project. Can any one tell when are the call up
points 110 and 120 trigerred ?
I want to validate one of the user defined fields in WBS.

Everything is working fine when I simulate the validation. But when I enter a value in the user
defined field and save the project then I do not get the error message as expected.
Does anybody have an idea what could be wrong ??
Answer : Please see if you have checked the check box for Automatic validation in the relevant
project profile.
Question : I want to validate the customer number in one of the user fields in WBS. The
formula builder in the validation screen, it seems, does not support table fields other than fields
from PRPS. Can this be done thru some user exits ?? If yes how ?? Can u guide me in this ??
Answer : To use a user exit in validations, you have to perform following steps;
- copy SAP standard program GGBS002 to ZGGBS002
- create a user exit in this program (such as U902, U903 etc)
- the user exit you defined in the above mentioned program will be visible in validations on
screen tab 'Exits'
- configure your validation with 'User exit' as option
WBS description doesnt appear completely in hierarchical
Question : In the hierarchical reports in PS de WBS description is not showed completely. Do
you know a way to make this appear completely?
Answer :We are on 4.6B and this is what you can do. :1) Execute report
2) Expand your results, if necessary
3) Click on any WBS line description
4) Follow the menu path Settings/Characteristic display
5) Choose lead column
6) Move object short description to the value set side of the panel
7) Move object long description to the lead column side of the panel
Save (if you have authorization). Note you can use this procedure for any other object that may
show up on the report display. i.e. navigation characteristics change the objects displayed.
Anyway to put checks before setting to TECO?
Question : Can anyone pl let me know about the followings:
Is there any way to put checks (in the form of tick mark etc) before setting the system status to
"TECO"- e.g. some documents are received or not etc.
Answer : You can set the system status to Technically completed TECO which can be later on
withdrawn. The necessary changes are reflected in the system status on saving the Network
With the setup of user statusses (tr. OIBS), you have the ability to disable the 'TECO' as long as a
certain user status 'e.g. waiting for documents' is active
Links to documents stored on the Web
Question : Is there a way to create a document (under a project) which refers to a URL and not
to a document stored on a content server?
Answer : Yes you can, but you need define in DMS customizing some points.
1.- Inner "Define Data Carriers" in Define data carrier type external "DMS" a record with this
information: TYP = IE, Description = That you want, Check ONLINE and EX, the inside this in
Define External DMS create a record with DATACAR = INTERNET, TYP = IE, Description =
That you want, Check EX.
2.- Inner "Define Workstation Applications" define an application for web pages without file
format, inside this in "Define Workstation applications in network" create records for options 1,
2, 3, the path of location of your navigator in your PC or you can put "%AUTO% iexplore.exe
%f". Then when you create a document in the Original field you can put the URL and in the
Data Carrier field put the name that you define in the customizing.
How to settlement auc to asset in PS?
Question : The cost of project have settled to auc(investment asset), but when the project is
finished, in AM or in PS i can't settle auc to asset?
Pls give me some suggestion! Any idea is appreciation!
Answer : You must set technically complete for your WBS & NW before settle AUC to Assets.
Updating the current Order cost plan
Question : We are in 46C. Starting a project, we establish an Order cost plan. We plan the
amount of work (in hours) and specify the work center for each of the activities. For material
components, we enter the forecast material costs in the field "Material planning". We see the
total and detailed by activity cost plan in CNS41 (Structure overview) in the column "Order cost
plan 000". At some point in time, the project advancement shows that we have to reconsider the
original cost plan, for instance because the actual costs collected so far are much higher than
foreseen at start-up. Management decides to change the cost plan 000 to reflect the new
forecasted budget. Management already told that they would like to be able to specify a new
total value for the Order cost plan 000 of the activity rather then to play with the amount of work
(hours) in the activity. They say it should be something like this (for labor): (actual cost) +
(number of hours to do * cost of work center) = order cost plan 000.
What options do we have to modify the "Order cost plan 000"??

Answer : There is a functionality called cost forecast (transaction CJ9L/CJ9M). I think this is
exactly what you require. The forecasted costs are saved in a separate CO version. You could try
to display this version in CNS41.
Create network from Sales Order
Question :
We are currently running 4.6C and have implemented SD and PS. The situation is we want to be
able to create a network automatically from the sales order during creation.
I've assigned the strategy group 85 to the material master and I've defined the network
parameters from sales order (via transaction CN08).
The result...
During creation of the sales order (transaction VA01), the network is created successfully but the
components are not transferred to the network. Is it supposed to or not? If so, what additional
configuration should I look at?
I'm not very familiar with the standard functionality so I'm hoping someone out there has
experience with this topic.
Answer : The components in assembly processing remain on the sales order only.
In case you are working with reasonably complex scenario on BOM and procurement, where
material items have their own dependencies schedulewise e.g to design, you should put the
materials on the network. The best way to accomplish this is to do the BOM allocation (transfer)
to activities and have only the invoicing item at sales order.
IM and FM
Question : Is that possible to use IM to control investment projects and FM to control general
costs? What is needed to be done in order to avoid conflicts between IM and PS ?
Answer : Investment Management() IM Module is highly integrated with controlling(CO) ,
project system(PS), and Asset Management(FI-AA) components.
IF you would like to implement IM & PS you might ask yourself what additional advantages are
offered by using IM .
These Include:
1- in PS you can represent the planned and the budgeted values of all projects . using IM you can
represent the budgeting process from the organization pointview. IM helps you track of budget
amounts that you carry forward for projects that were approved in prior fisical year.
2- Using AR in IM CAN help you decide what budget will be assigned to your organization Unit.
IM Handles Cost Planning & Budget Approval and PS Manages Project Execution with AVAC
for the Budget for each project.
Multiple Root WBS
Question : Can any one tell me in detail of advantages and Dis-advantages of Multiples Root
WBS in the project.And one more why do you using the same coding Mask for PD and Root
WBS.
Answer : Multiple Root WBSEs helps in budgeting scenarios where these WBSEs are funded
from different sources say a customer project has part scope of R&D (funded by R&D).
You may also want to fund these root WBSEs from IM programs (linking to position IDs.)
Question : Subject : PS Assets under Construction
I know that I can maintain the Plant for the WBS Element, what I would like to know is if it is
also possible to maintain the Location as well? I've heard that it is not possible but I would like
to hear other opinions. Any suggestions? We are on version 4.0B.
I would like to know since the Asset Management people here are asking if it's possible to
maintain it in PS or if this can only be done in AM.
MM is not included in this implementation, but we did set up the Plants and Locations.
Reply : Subject : PS Assets under Construction
you can maintain a location for a WBS element as well. Select WBS element, follow path Details
> Orgainsation. This screen has a field called Functional Location, apart from other orgainsation
details such as Controlling Area, Company Code, Business Area, Plant, Calender etc
Question : Subject : PS Network Status's & Confirmations
Is there a status that can be set for a network activity that will stop time confirmations from being
processed? TECO stops changes to the basic data, but allows further time confirmations.
Reply : Subject : PS Network Status's & Confirmations

you can lock account assignment for the network/activity in consideration depending on whether
the network is header/activity
assigned. This disallows the confirmation of the activities.
Any Variant Capabilities in CM07 Report

I am executing the CM07 report whuich is the Variable Capacity Planning Report.
Out of which, I like the results because I obtain the fields I need by going thru the
individual ''choose fields'' button.
However in 4,6c) it does seem to have any variant capabilities ???
I have to reenter the fields selection every item I back out of the report ... Which is a bit
anoying !!!
Anyone has any recipes for this so that columns/criterias selected can be save guarded for
the next time ???
There are Variant list capabilities for CM07 Capacity report.
Mainly via PS-> Information Systems->Resources->Tools->Resources->Selection->General
Profile (OPA6) and also via PS-> Information Systems->Resources->Tools->Resources>Selection-> Variant List Poifile Details (OPDT).
You create a new ''Z'' Variant Profile list with all the fields that you want to select and show in
yopur CM0? report .
Be carefull to click correctly on the greenish/yellowish arrow to bring up the field selections pop
up window...
Than associate this new Z Variant Profile to a newly defined ''Z'' General Profile...
Then after you can override with othe Variant Lists in the profile selection of the CM07 report
txn. itself if needed
Change Documents in SAP Project

In the Customising for Create Project Profile (OPSA) there are 2 fields for "Change
Documents".
Where and how is this useful during implemenation?
There are 2 outcomes for change documents and they should both be implemented if it's
important that you keep track of changes made to a project:
General changes (the one at the top)
- any field content changes made to a project WBS after it was first saved will be recorded in a
file. eg. if you changes the WBS description, the old value and the new value will be recorded, or
if you changed a person responsible, it would also be recorded etc. This information can be
reviewed in Info Systems report CN60 to old/new values and who/when.
Status Managment (the one checked in Status Management)
- any changes to System and User Status will be recorded, including the status history and
who/when. Changes can be seen in any project maintenance transaction (eg. CJ02, CJ20N) by
clicking on the "i" icon for a PD or WBS, then following the internal pull-down menu path:
Extras>Change Documents> For Status/All.You can then drill-down on the satus to see its
history.
SAP PS Interview Questions

Q1. For raising Client billing, is there any possibility of linking line items in SD module
with Activities / WBS in PS module?
A1. It can be linked through DIP Profile and do Resource Related Billing for raising billing.
Q2. Can Revenues be linked with Activities?
A2. No, it can be done at WBS level with 'Billing' operative indicator.
Q3. Can progress be updated in WBS elements?
A3. Yes, You can use Progress Analysis (EVA) for this.
Q4. We would like to compare the planned cost, actual cost & revenue for line items in SD
module. For this as what object should we consider the line item in PS module.
A4. You can use Billing level WBS in PS module.
Q5. In easy cost planning/ cost models, the resource requirement details (quantity and rate)
are given to get the cost of each line item. But to get planned cost of each activity, the
consultant is asking us to assign resources separately again in activities. If we consider the
line items as activities, should we assign the resources again or the same in easy cost
planning / cost models can be linked to get the resources assignment in a simpler method.
A5. Instead of this, you can use costing variant for Easy Cost Planning (not for the activities)
Is there any way by which we can lock two specific wbs elements say overheads and other
expenses, so that the user cannot release PR?
The easiest way would be to define the project release process in the bottom-up fashion. That
means, you will only release the activities/WBS elements that you need from time to time during
the course of the project. That way, charges won't be accrued on a WBS element until it's
released (so, don't release it until it's ready for collecting costs).
Is there any way by which we can stop the network from attaching further materials after
it is released?
This is controlled through the change profile, which is assigned to the network profile. In the
change profile, under the Component tab, you can define the release status of the activity at
which you can create/change/delete material components.
How can we set the options for capacity reports CM01?
This will possible depend on your config, but the options I use are:
Settings>General>
Tick, Cumulation of reqmts, Dyn. capacity cumul. and then select the hierarchy you have set
up.
I then select the financial year (as we are budget driven) using Entry type A and the start/finish of
the financial year.
I select period Month.
Then click tick.
I then select the work centre I require. or arm of the hierarchy.
You can then select standard overview and also select graphs or if you need a detailed list press
that button. *-- Jim Carter
Short Interview Q& As on SAP PS

Project Calculations
When we confirm activities and see it in cns41 report we can see that the POC is
aggregated at the Network,WBS and project level.
How does the system calculate this.. i.e on what factors and criteria?
PS, like, other Projects Programs used the Pondered advance has a project and structural (WBS)
phisical advance.
IF you have a Project with only 1 activitie. The 100% phisical advance of the activitie is passed
to the Project.
If you have a Prj. with 2 activities and both had 100% phisical advance. The project has 200%?
NO!, PS calculated this
Percent complete Activity A = 100 = A-POC

Percent complete Activity B =100 B-POC
Weigth or contribution of A = 30% A-Wgt
Weigth or Contribution of B =70%
B-Wgt
(The sum of the weigth need to be 100%)
The Project Advance will be A-POC*A-wgt + B-POC*B-Wgt
This implies = 100*30% + 100*70% = 30 + 70 =100
The weigth is a function of Men-Hours, Cost or Special-Weigth.
User Status Report
In the business scenario used here a status profile containing different User statuses with
authorisation controls has been set up in the Project Definition for controlling the process
of Project creation & approval. The process flow is as follows - The project is created by the
design team, after which it is sent to pre-audit team for approval, the pre-audit team
approves it, on approval the project is released and the rest of the process flows on. Each of
the above phases is marked by an user status and on completion of a phase the user sets the
next user status for the object.
Requirement : An ABAP report is required to be developed which shows the date and time
at which each of the user staus was set and released.
Go to transaction SE38, and enter RBSVCDOC in the field "Program". Select the Execute
button. Insert your WBS's object number, and select the tick box "SHOW_ALL" Execute the
program.
If the results is what you are looking for, then follow these steps to have your required report on
User Status Change Log:
1. Ask your ABAP program to copy function RBSVCDOC to a Z-Program, and 2. assign a Ztransaction code this copied Z-program. 3. You can also ask the programmer if he is able to
design a user defined input screen to this program.
Creating an Internal Activity at the Network Level
Trying to create an internal activity at the network level and whenever I go to the menu to
add an internal activity, the level moves up to the project level instead of remaining at the
nework level. This of course prevents me from creating the internal activity. Why this is
happening?
Work out the following path :
1) Go to "Structure Tree" (Top-left pane of Project Builder), click on Network Header.
2) In "Work Area" (Right pane) click on "Activities Overview" icon. Go to "Int. Processing Tab"
and define activity with relevant field details and Confirm.
This will create Int activity in the selected Network only. *-- Nabada More
Time calculation in work Center
My requirement is to calculate the time taken for a component which contains 4
Operations. Using Work Centers in PS Module.
Details of the Operations:
1. Chain cutting
2. Soldering
3. Lock fitting
4. Assembly
Time taken for soldering operation = 15 sec/soldering operation
One component contains = 20 soldering operation
Total time taken to finish one component = 300 sec
In one day we can make = 8 hr(28800sec)/300sec=96 nos.
How we can calculate this in the system Using Work Center.
You need to do folowing....
1) Define 4 activity type with these names and give the unit of operation as second - and assign
it to a cost center in kp26
with cost
2) Define a work center in CNR1...using usage project management 0006
3) Assign formulae SAP004 in the other formulae in scheduling tab and SAP008 in capacity
Tab.
4) Assign working hours for your WC in capacity tab header data as 8 hours and put number of
available capacity
(no.of people in Work center)
5) Assign all the activity types in the Work center costing tab
6) Give duration for all these activity in your project
7) Schedule the project and do costing.... *-- Ritesh Bhushan
FAQ on SAP PS
Workforce Planning and Project Status
When a project status is set back to REL from TECO or CLSD status, the work force planning
done is getting deleted completly at the activity.
Run cmp9(Evaluation again) and you will have workforce planning back.
WorkForce Planning
We are using CMP2 for doing workforce planning in our Org, we attach reources to activities,
now the issue is we want to put an end date to the resource attached so that the particluar
resource does not appear in cmp2 .
P.S - we have tried by attaching resource to WBS too, it doesn't work.
In CMP2 - mark the relevant line - press the bottom with the pencil - make a new end date and
save.
Next time you enter CMP2 the start date has to be after the end date you entered.
Be aware that the end date affect the work list for the person in CATS.
Table for System status (wbs)
I am trying to create one query to find out wbs status assigned Open PO. I have located the
relevant file for PO but not able to get table which stores system status.
The table names are JEST, TJ02T
Pass the OBJNR to the table JEST you will get System Status Number.
Once you get System Status Number pass it to table TJO2T you will get System Status text.
WBS and company codes
Is it possible to have two different company code within the same WBS structure?
For a single WBS element - NO
Within the structure - YES provided company codes belong to same controlling area
ISBD system status
Does anyone know if system status ISBD should be set if a budget tolerance with action
"warning" is exceeded, however the total budget is not exceeded. We have the following set up:
80% Warning
90% Warning with mail
100% Error message
At 80% the system status ISBD (Insufficient budgeting) is set; is this correct.
You are right. The status ISBD (Insufficient budgeting) is set once the tolerence limit 1 is
exceeded.
Project version: Can I go back to a previous version?
Can I go back to a previous version of a project? For instance, a new project version is created
automatically on release of the project. Is it possible to go back to the previous version in order
to "undo" the release?
Project versions are used as snapshots of projects at different status or manually triggered points.
You would not be able to go back to versions because the version is not the operative project.
You will not be able to undo a REL status.
Close the Project
How can I close the project, after closing any PRs and PO no Processing?
Open the project in CJ20N. Go to menu bar path: Edit-> status-> Close. Save project. Please note
that you must first have gone through the normal progression of status moves from CRTD to
REL to TECO before you will be able to close.

Project Functionality of SAP-PM (Plant Maintenance)

The SAP Plant Maintenance module (PM) is designed to handle the management and execution of
integrated maintenance processes. Such processes include preventative, routine and turnaround
maintenance, all fully integrated with purchasing, MRP, controlling and financial accounting performed
in SAP. The main objects used in PM are work orders, a series of which (often grouped by revisions)
are what typically is thought of as a "project". Such maintenance projects are planned by describing
the estimated work effort per "operation" (activity) and work center performing that work effort. By
linking operations inside work orders or across them a generic project schedule is created.
Unfortunately SAP-PM has only limited scheduling capabilities. Therefore effective enterprise project
scheduling for maintenance purposes requires either the use of the SAP PS module, the integration
with external scheduling tools like Primavera or MS Project, or for less complex projects the use of
external tools like GWOS (for more information about these tools please search this web site).
The basic master records used by Plant Maintenance are:
- Maintenance Notifications;
- Maintenance Orders;
- Functional Locations;
- Equipments;
- Materials; and
- Work Centers (Resources).
Functional Locations and Equipments contain fields that allow grouping by units, locations, or plant
locations.
Project Functionality of SAP-CO (Controlling)

There are several important touchpoints between SAP projects and the SAP Controlling module (CO).
All SAP cost planning and budgeting (in SAP terminology: budget = approved cost plan) functions are
handled using standard CO functionality. Objects relevant to project management in SAP are cost
objects. This means that planned, committed and actual costs can be charged to them like to a cost
center or an internal order in CO. Among these cost objects are WBS elements, networks, activities,
activity elements, maintenance orders, operations and suboperations.
Costs may be planned on many levels and in many ways, starting as investment management (IM)
level or WBS structure level cost planning, through primary cost element planning, and going on to
purchase requisitions, planned allocations, planned hourly use of resources with associated standard
cost rates, and many more.
Actual costs may be charged to SAP project objects in many ways, typically through goods or service
receipts, accounts payable invoices, general ledger (GL) postings, cost allocations or settlements. The
SAP system will automatically perform the relevant controlling postings in the background so that CO
plan-actual or plan-commitment-actual reports can be run in PS or PM.
Standard costing using standard cost rates associated with work centers (resources) are defined in
SAP CO, either internally calculated or manually assigned. This then means that cost center-based
controlling transactions have a direct impact on project costing. The moment you say "costs" in SAP,
you say "CO" automatically, even when dealing with projects in PS or PM.
Project Functionality of SAP-PP (Production Planning)

Production planning and project management in SAP have many touchpoints. They intersect
particularly in a make-to-order environment involving sales-driven projects. In principle there are a lot
of similarities between the production planning module (PP) of SAP and the Project System (PS) or
even Plant Maintenance (PM). Production orders are very similar to networks or maintenance
orders/work orders.
The main difference is that PP deals with ongoing operational aspects while PS and PM deal with
projects. Projects are defined as a series of activities with a start and finish date in order to complete
clearly specified deliverables at a high quality standard. From that perspective the main conceptual
difference to PP is the limitation in time. PP, PS and PM all define a series of tasks, link them through
relationships with each other, assign work centers to them to define where and by whom the tasks are
supposed to be completed, and then schedule and cost these tasks out.
Even the tools used in SAP are very similar or often the same (like work centers, definition of
relationships, resource leveling). This should not be surprising as particularly the PS module, and also
to some degree PM, has been built by combining PP and controlling (CO) functionality. It does indeed
seem that one reason why project management in SAP often is perceived as not user-friendly is due to
that fact. Many of the "logistics" functions of the dynamically changing PS and PM modules are rooted
in the much more static PP module. The result is great functional power but often clumsy screens and
transactions.
The assignment of internally produced materials (components) to projects in PS or PM reflects another
area where these modules intersect. In that case PP provides input to PS or PM, and the timing of this
input is synchronized through scheduling and MRP (materials requirements planning) transactions.
There are a number of limitations in the way PP on the one side and PS and PM on the other side
interact. At least in the standard SAP R/3 system costs and dates are not naturally rolling up or
synchronizing between these modules.
Project Functionality of SAP-SD (Sales & Distribution)

What does Sales and Distribution (SD) functionality have to do with the management of enterprise
projects? It does for more companies than may seem obvious at a first glance. For contractors using
their own SAP system to manage and deliver capital investment projects the SD module is where the
billable deliverables of their projects are defined. The same is true for everybody who uses the SAP
project system (PS) to manage the make-to-order production of complex products, whether they are
powerplants, aircraft parts, or the concrete bridges.
SAP has functionality that allows to tie reference (template) project structures to product codes so
that at the time of sales order creation the setup of a project structure can automatically be triggered.
This does then link SD and PS seamlessly, at least on a high level. As the project progresses,
milestone billing set up in SAP-PS can then trigger payments in SD, which again results in revenue
postings in the SAP financial accounting module (FI). There are a number of other reasons where SD
can interact with projects managedf in SAP. Mostly, however, it does so only when you take a
comprehensive look at the overall process, trying to ensure full integration. Not doing so may lead to
inconsistencies between what sales people or customer relationship personnel sees in SD and the
actual status of the delivery of products. One may just consider a situation where SD data from a
suppliers' system needs to be tied into a project master schedule managed by a general contractor. To
overcome the latter it is helpful to mirror and match purchase orders and sales orders between
supplier and customer, also in line with the way the general project is managed.
Project Functionality of SAP-IM (Investment Management)

The potential significance of SAP's Investment Management module (IM) is too often overlooked when
considering the management of complex enterprise projects. Nevertheless it should in most cases be
considered when designing scalable project management solution that center around SAP.
SAP IM is a tool designed to enable program management in SAP. Program management as defined
by SAP in that context means the process of defining a hierarchy on top of many projects with the
purpose of planning and controlling costs, including project appropriation management and budget
authorizations. Its strongest integration points, besides PS, are with the SAP Controlling (CO) and
Asset Management (AM) modules.
While IM was originally developed for the budgeting and high-level management of capital investment
initiatives, its functionality has been extended to allow its use for similar functions. It simply is a tool
that can perform such functions on top of any kind of PS projects.
Preferred Project Management Tool is...
SAP Project System (PS)

Enterprise/P3e
Microsoft Project
SAP with Primavera
Difference between SAP PS and PM?

The SAP world makes an important distinction between "PS" and "PM". The acronym "PM" is a source of frequent
confusion. For many project management professionals it simply stands for "Project Management", while in the SAP
community it is the abbreviation for the "Plant Maintenance" module of SAP.
The SAP PM module was not designed as a project management module. It still contains a lot of components very
similar to the SAP PS module, which is the project management module called "Project System". SAP define their
modules by function more so than by the process they cover.
The Process Building Blocks for Projects with SAP

Forget about technology and do not pay attention to modules: The key process blocks of Enterprise
Projects deal with functional aspects! To set up an effective project management system, these
functional aspects need to be clearly defined. If multiple tools are used, responsibilities per functional
aspect and project management layer need to be assigned to one tool only, for each layer of the
enterprise project (enterprise, project, and contractor).
Key process blocks or functions are:
1. Structures (WBS in
SAP-PS)
2. Schedule (Network)
3. Cost Plan (Budgeting)
4. Resources (Work Centers)

5. Actuals / T&E
6. Progress / Completion
Accounting :
Budget Exceeded Even When There is Amount Available

WBS element budget exceeded even when there is amount available. Is there any
percentage between the amount available and amount to be paid that the system
determines before paying an invoice. Where is this configuration made?
Check your budget profile in the IMG (trx. OPS9).
Select the F1 help function on the following fields:
1. "Total values" in the Timeframe block
2. "Annual values" in the Timeframe block
3. All five fields in the "Availability Control" block
Verify then if any conflict exist in the logic of your settings.
Secondly, go to your configuration settings in the IMG regarding the Tolerance limits for
Availability control.
Check your SPRO setting under Project System>Costs>Budget>Define Tolerance Limits.
As per the setting in spro for budget tolerance limit, system gives you the message. Here you
set at what %age of releases budget, system will give you message and the type of message also
like warning or error along with the area where you want to put this budget check.
The column "Activity" stipulates the action to be taken by the system when you reach the
percentage of expenditure as stipulated in the column "Usage".
Example:
Activity = 1 (Warning)
Usage = 95 (percentage)
In this example, the system will issue a warning when your total expenditure (actual costs) reach
95% of the budget amount. This is checked by the system, based on the settings in the budget
profile as stated above.
CLOSING A PROJECT
Subject: CLOSING A PROJECT
I tried to close a project # 2600000089. I am getting an error message " There is still WIP for
WBS 2600000089 ".
The long text suggests that " Calculate the WIP for WBS 2600000089 so that it can be cleared.
Then settle WBS 2600000089, including the cleared WIP in the settlement ".
I am not clear with this information. What should I do for this ??
We went from 3.1H to 3.1I about 20 days back. In 3.1H I have never come across like this..
-----Reply Message----Subject: RE: CLOSING A PROJECT
Typically this occurs for one of two reasons:
- You have costs on the WBS that need to be settled to a cost center or other WBS
- You have RA that still needs to be run and settled
This can get comlicated if you are not doing full settlement as you will have to open up the past
periods to fix it.
-----Reply Message----Subject: RE: CLOSING A PROJECT
You cannot close the project if you have a WIP value in it. It's because:
1. No invoice has been generated for that project. (fully invoiced status hasn't been reached). If
you generate the invoice, the WIP value will be transferred to cost of sales.
2. Invoice has been generated but the WIP value is not yet settled fully due to some provision as
provided by the difference between your plan values and actual values. Have both values equal
and run the RA and settlement again. Once WIP is zero, then change the status to CLOSED.
Investment Management
Subject: Investment Management - Urgent! Urgent !
We wish to incorporate monthly spending plans in IM(Investment Management). Has anybody
had any success in
implementing this in conjunction with having Annual and Overall Budget Management.
-----Reply Message----Subject: Re: Investment Management - Urgent! Urgent !
Have not tried using monthly plans in IM, but have used multiple plan versions in PS (all IM
measures in my co. are linked to
projects). PS reporting allows selection of the plan version for comparison to budget.
Most effective use is for cumulative monthly cost plans. Also suggest that you would want to use
a unique identifier for monthly
plans vs. overall project plans in your naming/numbering conventions.
Settlement Rule For a WBS Element

What is meant by WBS element and in what scenario, PM orders settlement rule created
with category as WBS?
Budget: Amount of resources allocated under a particular head in a financial year.
Budget Control: Having/ creating a control on the resources allocated in a financial year.
Original Budget: The initial budget that you have allocated to a WBS element.
Supplement of Budget: One time/ discrete increment in the original budget.
Return of Budget: Taking out the unutilized portion of the budget.
Transfer of Budget: Transferring the budget among two or more expense heads.
Project Definition: A framework for a business undertaking with a fixed goal to achieve with
given resources. The project definition contains dates and organizational information that are
binding for the entire project. WBS Element: Individual structural element in a work breakdown
structure (WBS) representing the hierarchical organization of an R/3 project. Describes either a
concrete task or a partial one that can be further subdivided.
Proposed Business Process : Assume there are seven expense heads in maintenance department.
There may be addition of expense head in near future. Based on the maintenance heads,
maintenance department will create a project in project system. This project will be used for
statistical purpose only & will not have any financial implication.
Upon creation of a project, WBS elements will be created as per the expense heads. So for each
expense head, there will be one top level WBS element. Again these WBS elements will be
divided in twelve WBS elements. These twelve WBS elements represent twelve calendar
months. Budget will be allocated to each WBS element & the WBS element will be released
from the project.
Maintenance department will create maintenance orders as per their work requirements. These
orders will be settled to cost centre, which is maintained in the settlement rule. Also WBS
element will have to be mentioned in each order so that the budget control can take place. So as
to capture cost from each maintenance order, the WBS element field will be made ?mandatory
field? in maintenance order.
So when a maintenance order is released, system will do a budget check against the WBS
element mentioned. If the budget check status is OK, order is released or else it will stopped
from release. If the order is stopped from release, maintenance department will have to
supplement the budget. Upon supplementing, the order is released again & the maintenance cost
such as, labour, material costs can be booked on the order. Again the order cost is settled to cost
centre & at the same time, budget is consumed from the respective WBS element.
Every year, maintenance department will copy the previous years project so as to save time &
efforts to create project & WBS elements. And the maintenance department will assign the
budget allocated to each WBS element in a financial year. It is also possible to return the
unutilised budget or, transfer of budget from one WBS element to another.

Settlement From WBS to AUC that was created from other WBS
How can make a settlement from a WBS to an AUC that was created from other WBS ?.
The system send me a message AA 311 You cannot posted to the AUC ( Investment Support
Measure ). The Help told me that I need flag a WBS like a Capital Investment Measure, I
search in all fields of the structure but I dont found nothing.
Go to the WBS element Control data tab and enter the investment profile field. Then it will allow
you to create an AUC.
What is the correct procedure for settling the WBS element costs to an AuC & then to as
asset? For settlement to AUC settlement rule is not required. Follow the steps:
1) For WBS element where the asset has to be created, AUC willbe created automatically when
the WBS element is in release status to get this investment profile should be assigned to WBS
element in Control Tab
2) You can see in the syatem status show as AUC to see the AUC number follow the path
EDIT---> WBS element ----> Investment program----> Asset under Construction where you
can see the AUc which is created automatically
3) Once the above two steps are throughfor settlement to AUC goto transaction CJ88 give the
WBS element number select the processing type as partial captalization and execute all the costs
pertaining to that WBS elements will be automatically settled to the AUC which is created for
that WBS element
Project Objects
Subject: Project Objects
We have found that there are more than one WBS for an object. This is
supposed to be a unique relationship i.e. one to one.
On doing an object find for a Project Characteristic you obtain the
object numbers (that is WBS elements internal numbers) of the objects
that contain the characteristics. Using T.code SE16 you can find the WBS
element number of the object. On doing this search we have found
multiple WBS elements for the same object number. On investigating the
situation, we found that in most instances the "other" object another
WBS element in the same structure or one created shortly after the
correct WBS element.
We have not yet found out why this happens, what the solution is or if
we have found all occurrences.
-----Reply Message----Subject: RE: Project Objects
In PRPS, there is 4 fields that refer to an SAP object:
POSID is the WBS element identifyer the user see on the screen
PSPNR is the internal SAP project item number (which IS unique)
OBJNR is the SAP object number (made out prefix 'PR' and the internal
project item number. It is also the number that is stored in the Costs tables.
PSPHI is the internal current number of the project the WBS element belongs
to.
All these numbers are absolutely unique. But all WBS elements in the same
project will share the same PSPHI, which indicates the project (from the
PROJ database).
The reason why you have an internal SAP number (PSPNR) and an external
number (POSID) is to allow the user to change the WBS element identifyer
without losing all the history.
Check to make sure you were looking at the right object number.
Various Cost Planning Methods in PS

I have come across various cost Planning methods like:
(1) Easy Cost Planning
(2) Unit Costing
(3) Detailed Cost Planning
(4) Network Costing

When do we go for each of these methods, practically.
In general implementation, which Cost Planning would be used?
Here is a very brief overview for you:
Easy Cost Planning(ECP) is really Unit Costing with a pretty face (MysapCom). It is used in
Transaction CJ20N (Project Builder) only.
You can set up 'Cost Models' in ECP using Characteristics which can be used to calculate values
and automatically create Cost Plan Line Items - this is useful for companies who have pre-set
planning methods (eg. Planning costs for building a bicycle, or a chemical test that requires
known materials, labour, services and general costs.). It is a very flexible tool.
An extention to ECP is Execution Services, which allows you to automatically generate Material
Reservations, Purchase Requisitions and Activity Allocations. Its disadvantages (versus
Networks) is that the planned costs are all aggregated to one WBS (unless you split your WBS's
up to reflect the work you are doing - Labour, Materials, Equipment etc).
Therefore, actual costs hit the WBS itself, not the line-item to which you planned. Disadvantages
of ECP is that it does not distribute planned costs across time (no distribution rule). Also, there is
no scheduling (start-finish, dependencies). Configuration for ECP is relatively straight forward.
Costs for ECP can be planned against any Plan Version (default is Plan Version 0).
Networks allow you to plan costs via objects called Network Activities. They can be maintained
not only in CJ20N, but also in CJ2D. They are a little more complex to use, but they allow you to
have a networked structure. Each Network Activity can have planned costs for Work
Centre/Activity Type, Stock/Non-stock Materials, Services and General Costs by Cost Element.
Activities can have a list of Material Components.
Networks will generate Material Reservations and/or Purchase Requisitions automatically.
Configuration can be very complex. All costs for Networks are sent to Plan Version 0.
Distribution of costs across time is supported.
Detailed Cost Planning is used when you simply want to plan your costs via Cost Elements. You
can plan these costs against any Plan Version.
For a quick, easy planning method, ECP cannot be beaten as long as you don't want complex
scheduling.
It is impossible to list all the feature/advantages/disadvantages to the planning methods in this.
Asset Value Date in Settlement

We are doing line item settlement in our system. As the settlement is done at the WBS level,
all the assets capitalized would have the same asset value date. Is it possible to have
different asset value date for different line items?
Yes, provided you do the settlement run on different dates. Also check the FI settings for
settlement strategy.
SAP Standard defaults the following scenario:
An asset can only be capitalized when the asset is in use/productive. This means the
deliverable/asset must be completed.
This is the same as the status TECO (technically complete). When you capitalize (settle to asset),
then the system takes the date when the WBS status changed to TECO, and defaults this date as
the asset value. All the line items in the WBS will therefore assume the TECO date of the WBS
and that is why all the line items in the WBS have the same asset value date.
All the individual line items contributes together to one unique asset, and all have the same value
date of the unique asset, which was derived, from the TECO date of the WBS.
This can be adjusted and changed in the FI-AA module, but make sure you understand the
implications. The asset value date is used to derive the start date for depreciation, and
depreciation is normally governed externally by a governmental institution, and your company
must adhere to this external requirements. Consult with your company's auditor/financial
executive to get the applicable rules and make sure your settings faals within this requirements.
Logistics :
PS Substitutions
We have configured Partner funcitons to used at PD and WBS element level. We want to
enter the 'customer number' as partner at the PD level and then want to copy it
automatically in all the WBS elements under the project.
Is it possible to do such a thing? We are unable to use substitutions coz Partner fields do
not occur in the substitution fields.
This is reasonably easy to achieve with substitution exit, where you can retrieve data from any
logically linked objects and use these as substitution source data. This is described in note
440186, chapter 4.
However, with this technique you can only maintain the fields of PRPS, e.g. user fields USR*.
If your intention is to substitute corresponding Partner role in each level of WBS, I think that will
not be possible with this technique directly.
You should additionally check if there is a user exit at partner maintenance to complete the
scenario.
Normally you can use user exit RGGBS00 to insert a user specific into subsititution.
But in your case, it's a little complex, because the partner is in another table (not in PRPS).
however you can try to insert your own field into table GB01 and regenerate with program
RGUGBR00 (note 42615).
Progress Analysis to measure EVA

Q- I am currently working on a Chemical industry Re-implementation. My client wants
to implement Progress Analysis to measure EVA. They current use WBS elements (No
Networks). I have been trying to find an instance where progress analysis (EVA) has been
implemented for WBS so I can decide what needs to be in place. Anyone who has some
imformation on these should please give me an insight or documentation. This would be
greatly appreciated.
Tony
A-Unfortunately, from my experience, I can say that Progress analysis/ EVA Earned Value
Analysis in PS cannot be done without the activities and of course withouth the networks. We
had the same problem, as in our company as we had before only WBS and we needed EVA. For
EVA PS has the Transaction CNE5 and in this kind of reports (see also CN41) values of rhe the
field "actual work" will be "built up" on basis of activities confirmations. As I can suggest you, if
the company does not want to change the current structure of the projects, a soulution would be
to i! ntegrate PS with BW, if they have BW there, and to generate the needed reports for
analysing the EVA in BW.
Otherwise I have not heard to be possible to have Progress Analisys without activities in SAP
Standard.
Elena Manole
Thanks for the reply. It is very helpful. It confirms what I thought.
Tony
Progress analysis at WBS level is also possible., Use estimation method and put the ACTUAL
WORK DONE.
Mukesh
I agree with Mr Mukesh. We are using the EVA method estimation and actual work done for
WBS.
Please create a new "Z" method of EVA which will allow confirmation of WBS in a similar way
as being allowed for activities. You can then confirm the WBS for actual progress of work and
enter the % completion of actual work to get schedule vs actual curve.
Salim Mohsin Shakir
Using the Estimation method with WBS means you are not really doing EVM in SAP. You
would need to calculate the percentage using another tool. Also, since your WBS schedule dates
are not dynamic, the forecasts would be very difficult to create. If the company is reimiplementing, have them implement Networks Activities, at a minimum of one Activity per
WBS.
Sequence Of Operations To Get EVA

In my project system I want project progress analysis on the basis of only time
proportionality. Cost will not be consider for progress andtheir are different units used like
m, m3, km & hr for work in internal & external activities, so is it possible to do such setting
on the basis of confirmation in customisation?
Yes it is possible do through activity confirmation. It all depends on EV basis, their you need to
set time proportionality.
You need to perform sequence of operations to get EVA. for time prop. you need to maintain
scheduling, activity confirmation etc.
Define default meas method as Time prop for objects in customising.
You need to do customization settings for EVA for progress version, statistical key figures, value
catagories, progress cost element etc.
You can go the following customizing steps... this will help you to configure as per your needs.
This is not as per your need, as only you can understand what all the customizations you need to
do........
1. Create Progress Version 101 with exclusive use 'Progress Analysis'. I have selected Plan &
Actual check boxes.
2. Settings for Progress Versiona) Plan version - '0'
b) EV basis - Cost plan (active project, annual values)
c) POC weighting - Cost plan (active project, annual values)
d) Planning type - Basic dates
e) Early / Late - earliest possible
f) Both reference boxes selected
3. SKFs- I created three SKFs 10 (Non-Aggregated POC), 20 (Aggregated POC) and 30 (POC
for RA) with unit of measure '%' and selected the Key value category 'Total values'.
4. I need to assign these SKFs to different value categories. I created three value category 10, 20
& 30 with selection 'SKF with total values' and unit of measure '%'. Then I assigned SKF 10 to
VC 10, SKF 20 to VC 20, SKF 30 to VC 30
5. I assigned measurement method as default value:

a) WBS (Plan) - Cost Proportional
b) WBS (Actual) - Cost Proportional
c) Internal Activity (Plan) - Cost Proportional
d) Internal Activity (Actual) - Degree of Processing
c) Exernal activity(Plan) - Cost Proportional
d) Exernal Activity (Actual) - Degree of Processing
6. I made progress cost element '6511100' (Secondary cost element) with Cost element category
as 61.
7. I maintain a value catagory 6511100 with Cost radio button selected.
And assigned the progress cost element to the value catagory. i.e Cost element 6511100 to value
catagory 6511100.
8. I maintain the assignment of cost element group. ie. I assigned progress cost elemnt to cost
element group with default radio button selected. In the cost element group, I have selected
certain cost elements which we regularly used (cost elements for project materials, project
manhours, project contracts, spares etc)
Run CJEN first then CNE1 and CNE5
Milestones
Subject: Milestones
We don't use networks and activities.
The same time we want to use milestones only with WBS-elements for basic POC evaluation.
For instance for WBS we can attach several milestones with different POC, like 10%, 50%, 80%.
What is the tool in the system to confirm that particular milestone is reached? How can I change
milestone status?
-----Reply Message----Subject: RE: Milestones
each milestone attached to a WBS element will have an actual date field open for entery when u
release the WBS element. this will determine if the milestone has been achieved or not.
the %age entered in the milestone for POC will be considered in the progress analysis.

-----Reply Message----Subject: RE: Project profile
Hi there,
Have you ever used validations rules. That may work well in such a situation. You could use a
rule like this : "If profile ID is
ABC then error message 333". If you heve not used these rules before tell us about that and we
may help you.
-----Reply Message----Subject: RE: Project profile
You can delete the profiles but you may encounter problems creating new WBS elements in the
old projects. The profile is
only used to provide defualts to these elements, so you will have to enter the values manually
(e.g. Project Type).
The other probelm area that comes to mind are any reports that use the profile as part of dynamic
selections.
Capacity Planning in PS module; Calendar like in MS

Projects
With Pool Capacity we can generally define capacity for a group of expertise in a given
Work Center. Meaning that if I have 10 peoples working at 40 hours a week each, my total
capacity on a weekly basis is 400 hours.
If the demands from activities in my various projects using that Work Center exceeds the
400 hours then I'll be under capacity and Gantt's in Planning Board will show in red !!!!!
However if I decide to go for Individual Capacity planning using HR module; then from
what I read the individuals already defined in HR as employee number; will be tied to the
Work Center and automatically taken and represented in Gantt's chart individually.
The link is to tie them as employee number to the Work Center in HR.
My question is; likewise in MS Projects; where we can define availability via the calendar;
we can grey out days when an individual is on vacation or not available.
And that will reflect in the overall availability...
In PS is there a way to get an ''equivalent'' calendar !!!!
I did not see anything in PS itself to lock individual's dates !!!!!
Would this be in HR ???
Mainly when I want to reserve vacation time ahead for indivial labour resources..!!!!
I am not an expert in this area but I know a bit about it (I made it in a customer, but at the end I
had to undo it). Actually I cannot work with networks so all I have it is my memory.
The pool capacity works as you say, but it seems that you are using the capacity availabality
feature. I understood that if you use that, the system only checks if there is capacity avalibale, but
not makes a capacity "commitment", it means, other networks can plan that capacity as own (this
is made in the "levelling" section). At last, I only used the first feature so only had a look on the
second.
I do not know how to plan people from HR module but:
- In CMP9 you can assign people to networks in basis to its Work Center in individual days (but
it is very boring for the user).
- In the activity tag "Personal Assignment" you can assign people to an activity. This uses the HR
information (working start time, absences, substitutions...). But this is not a capacity check or
plan (at the end, I used that information to make a customer-specific report).
- The function "HR_PERSON_READ_WORK_SCHEDULE" can be used to know the exact
avilabilty of a person (it will show you working hours, if that day is holiday, if there is a planned
absence or substitution... everything). But you need to report previously that data to the system.
(if you use it, take a look to the HR_PERSON_INIT_WORK_SCHEDULE too).
- The working factory calendar of the activity it is used to plan the capacity ==> maybe you
would need to make a calendar for each employee (too much work I think).
Note that in MS project when you "gray" days is for all the activities, to make that in PS you
should make a factory calendar with those days as no working days. I have talking to "gray"
those days for each activity.
Sorry if this is not very clear (it has taken me an hour with several interrupts).
I very much agree with Guillermo, and I would suggest to go for his ideea. In my opinion using
personal capacity planing in PS-HR is very inflexible and deficitary.
However, the link PS-HR you are asking for,
1. In work center (Transsaction: change work center) you will have to assign the persons from
HR, you will have to be carefull as in the transaction there are 2 methods/buttons to assign
persons to a work center. now I cannot tell you by heart which one is effectively linking the HR
with PS, as only one works, you will have to try both of them (swich to capacity view and you'll
see one button sth. "Link to HR" and then the other option is in the menu bar)
2. In HR - you will have to work with your HR colleagues maybe, should be maintained some
HR Infotypes: Transaction PA61,
Infotype 0007 - planned working time (e.g. 8 hr. a day)
Infotype 0005 - vacation
Infotype 2001, type pf Infotype 0100 - absences
For the infotype 0007 - you will have alreadythe Arbeitszeitplanregel "rule to plan the working
time", if I translate correct from german, which will set the calender for you. This is made with
another HR transaction for the HR calender ....this calender(e.g. factory calender) has to be then
generated/activated for every month (separate transaction). I do not remember all the transactions
codes now, but is pretty much intuitiv, as the system will give you the steps while maintaining
the Infotypes.
3. Then you plan the persons in the Activities for a determined period of time. In CMP9 you'll
see the availability with the standard working hours (8Hr/day, as set in HR in calender) and the
absences (as planed in HR in infotypes) with empty cells (Nota Bene: these cells have in
transactions CMP2 and CMP3 a change modus, are not grey or inactive !!!!!) You can change the
planing then with the transactions CMP2 or CMP3, one is from project, the other from
workcenter point of view . If you make changes in CMP2 or 3 you will not see the changes in
Project builder for example. With CMP9 you can only view the personals planing for a
workcenter, a project...
I remember there is another transaction to see the personal availability somewhere in the
Infosystem> PS>capacity. You'll have to look for it and generate it from Mandant 000.
Unfortunately, there are some more constraints, which you will discover while testing.
Project Status set to TECO

When I set a project on status TECO. We can still do confirmations on the project.
Is there a setting or a way in which we can set the project to TECO and not be able to do
confirmations on that particular project?
There is no link between TECO and actual confirmation. It might possible that the project is
technically completed but non technical activities are still pending..
All WBS elements, networks and activities are set on status TECO in the project. I have set
the status over a week ago and yet am still allowed to do confirmations to the activities in
the project.
We did not experience this problem before. It is the first time and it happens for all
projects that are set to status TECO.
If you have networks and activities involved your best bet is to use project builder to make a
status change at the project definition level which will cascade down to wbs elements, network
header and network operations.
You may try setting a DLFG flag and see if it prevents confirmations from occurring on the
activities. If you need to undo the deletion flag the sequence is as follows:
Using CJ02 undo DLFG at project definition level then select all wbs elements and perform the
same. using CN22 undo DLFG at network header level then select all activities and perform the
same.
Project builder allows status set downwards but not undo on all components, therefore requiring
CJ02 and CN22 to undo.
List of RA caculated values

In the part of "Result Analysis data" in the result screen after RA operation, there is a field named
L(r).
List of RA caculated values:
R(p) = Planned revenue for valuation
C(p) = Planned costs for valuation
M(p) = Planned costs for complaints and commissions for valuation
S(p) = Planned special costs (cost of sales = actual costs) for valuation
L(real) = Realized loss
N(p) = Planned values not taken into account
R(a) = Actual revenue
C(a) = Actual costs
M(a) = Actual cost of complaints and commissions

S(a) = Actual special costs (cost of sales = actual costs)
N(a) = Actual values not taken into account
D(a) = Down payt
C(c) = Calculated costs
R(c) = Calculated revenue
C(av) = Valuated actual costs
M(av) = Valuated cost of complaints/commissions
POC = Percentage of completion
C(r) = Reserves for unrealized costs
R(r) = Revenue surplus
C(z) = Work in process (capitalized costs)
R(z) = Revenue in excess of billings
M(r) = Reserves for cost of complaints and commissions
COS = Cost of sales
R(n) = Revenue aff. net income
Project System Status -Deletion Flag Active

One problem with the network triggered by a SO with CN08 linkage. The network
appears in display mode with system status -deletion flag active. How to change the
system status and delete the network?
Here is the deletion flag behavior I have observed.
We are using assembly order processing and also use CN08.
Using CN22 or CJ20N to create DLFG you set the status on the network header
Edit>status>deletion flag this rolls the status down to the activity level.
To reverse the deltion flag you must first:

cancel the deletion flag on the network header, then select all activities in the activity overview
and cancel deletion flag.
Now some people believe that when the deletion flag is set that it removes all of the activities
from the network.
This is false, users who do not see the activities after the deletion flag is set must use the
following menu path to "reveal" the activties:
Edit> Object> Display Deleted>On
Which table is the system storing the Project Def, WBS, NW and NWA system and User
status?
Check these tables:
PROJ : Master data for project definition
PRPS: Master data for WBS
PRHI: Master data for project Jerarquie
TJ02 - a list of all System Status'. You can use transaction BS23 to see these, or SE16n via
normal enquiry
JEST - current System/ User Status by object number (WBS and Network)
JCDS - history of System/ User Status by object number (WBS and Network)
Needless to say, you have to get the object number first by looking at PROJ, PRPS for Projects
and AUFK, AFKO, AFVC, AFVU or AFVV for Networks.
Use SE16n to see the contents.
PS: Status "code" contained in JEST for particular object number, after selecting object number
of choice from JEST to obtain status text simply join JEST to TJ02T linking JEST-STAT to
TJ02T-ISTAT and finally pick language TJ02T-SPRAS .
Stop Commitments Before Release Of Projects

We are creating projects via Appropriation requests. The theory is that no commitments
should be created before the project is released. However, we have proven that users can
change the Res./Purc. indicator to 'immediate' before the project has been released. If the
approver does not pick up that the project is not released yet, they can even create a
Purchase order.
You can not remove authorisation for the "immediate" indicator, because the indicator
changes when you release the project from "from release" to "immediate".
How can we stop ANY committments from being created until the project has been
released?
In OPSC make sure the Release immediately has been unmarked.
In transac OPUA (field selection network header) go to influencing choose network profile or
controlling area depending on which you want to customize. Set the field "Reservation/Purc.req"
CAUFVD-AUDISP make it to only displauy.
Go to transac OPUC (field selection network details) go to influencing, choose network profile
or contolling area to which you want to customize the setting. Set it to change and in the field
"Reservation/Purc.req" - AFVGD-AUDISP make it to only display.
This would prevent the users from changing it to display when they create and assign activities to
networks/projects.
One more customization, in transac OPUU in the network tab make sure the setting is for 2 (from
release)
or
A very effective way to handle this is using User status management .go to tcode bs02 and define
a status profile which can be defaulted in the project profile, in the status profile define proj
definition,WBS,network header and network activity as the infulenced object types.
Create a status "blck" as an initital status and in the business transaction field block PR and PRQ
creation.
Next create a status"allw" which will be set after project is released and allow PR and PRQ
creation after status is set
What is WBS element?

1) What is WBS element?
2) What is the Tcode to get to that screen?
3) What is the need and pupose of WBS element?
4) Do we happen to work on Functional module during our implementaion project?
5) In what scenario/situation we will be working on WBS?
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.
Aggregate POC Calculation

When we confirm activities and see it in cns41 report we can see that the POC is
aggregated at the Network,WBS and porject level. How does the system calculate this.. i.e
on what factors and criteria?
Result analysis determines the costs & revenues belong to the period, along with the Work in
progress (WIP) or Reserves.
Result analysis calculation is based on the planned / actual Cost & Revenue.
POC (Percentage of Completion) determines by the valuation method you opt
The formula for POC :
POC = R (a) / R (P) Revenue Proportionate
POC = C (a) / C (p) Cost Proportionate
Result Analysis Determines:
- Calculated Costs C(c) = POC X C (p) Same for Revenue
- WIP (If C(a) >C (c) ) WIP = C(z)= C(a) - C(p)
- Reserves for unrealized costs (if C(a) < C(c) )
C( r ) = C (c ) C(a)
- Revenue Surplus (if R (a) > R(c) )
R (r) = R(a) R(c)
E.g.
Revenue Proportionate RA:
In some project you have R(p) =3000$
C (p) = 2000$
R (a) = 1200$
C (a) = 1000$
Then POC = 1200 /3000 = 40 %
C(c) = POC X C(p) = 40 % X 2000 = 800$

WIP = C(z) = C(a) C(c) = 1000-800 =200$
Dynamic Selection on Report Not Working

I have several reports on which the dynamic selection is not working. For instance, the
report CN43N. The report is outputting all data in a year i.e it is disregarding the condition
I specified in the dynamic selection fields.
Is there some configuration to make to this report so that the dynamic selection works?
Include field are only possible for fields are realte to PS table:
1. Execute Transaction SE36.
2. Logical Database Builder: PSJ
3. Choose "Extras -> Selection views".
4. Copy selection view "SAP" to "CUS".
5. Change view "CUS".
6. Go to "Tables", select the correct table, for example table ACT01 for object type "Activity".
Here, you must ensure that this table is also listed under "Extras -> Dynamic selections" - only
these tables can be used.
7. Double-click on the table name.
8. In the "Fields of the table", select the fields desired and allocate them to one of the
"Functional groups".
9. Save.

The Project System has no organizational structures of its own; you incorporate it into the existing
structure by making assignments to the organizational units in Accounting and Logistics. It is this
which enables the Project System to present data clearly and in many different ways.
Q ; My company is contemplating the implementation of SAP Project Systems (PS)this

year. But having already implemented CO (internal orders) and IM, which covers some
aspects of the life cycle of capital projects, to what extent will there exists duplicity in the
SAP system, and what aspects of the installed modules will be subject to
change/modifications to accommodate PS? Also, what kind of implementation time can we
expect?
Answer : SAP PS is designed to work well with both CO and IM. The PS module will
allow better management of your projects. Allow adequate time in your project to
review your requirements and understand the impact this new module will have on
your existing setup. Also include time for testing and training so that you can ensure
the new features work properly and your clients understand how to achieve the
benefits.
What parameter is used to extend the maximum number of GUI sessions in a 4.6C
environment?
RESPONSE
The parameter is "rdisp/max_alt_modes" and its default value is 6 sessions. The
minimum is 2 and the maximum is 16. Use transaction RZ11 to get additional
information about the parameters and use RZ10 to implement the parameters.
also, you might want to look into these other parameters:
login/multi_login_users
login/disable_multi_gui_login

Validation in PS - WBS
I want to validate the customer number in one of the user fields in WBS. The formula builder in the validation screen,
it seems, does not support table fields other than fields from PRPS. Can this be done thru some user exits ?? If yes
how ?? Can you guide me in this ??
Answer :
To use a user exit in validations, you have to perform following steps;
- copy SAP standard program GGBS002 to ZGGBS002
- create a user exit in this program (such as U902, U903 etc)
- the user exit you defined in the above mentioned program will be visible in validations on screen tab 'Exits'
- configure your validation with 'User exit' as option
How To Create a Multilevel BOM

How To Create a Multilevel BOM and How Does It Work
{mosbanner:id=23}
Multi level bom is a Bom which it has different components at different level..for example:
- A ( finished material)
- B ( semi finished)
- C ( Raw material)
When you run the MRP, Bom will explode upto last level and it will plan the requirement of each individual material.
What ever may be the kind of BOM to be created transaction codes are as below:
- CS01 : BOM create
- CS02: BOM Change
- CS03: BOM display
Pre requisites are material master record for the materials.
What you have to keep in mind is:
1. BOM creation is through CS01 only.
2. When you have to create multilevel BOM, you have to carry craetion of BOM level by level.
3. First create BOM for assemblies (means materials which are produced inhouse, means materials with procurement
type "E" in the material master MRP 2 view).
4. Finally create BOM for the finished product using these assemblies as components.
5. When you see the BOM of finished part after creation through CS03, you can find these assemblies with a tick
mark in the field "Assembly". When you double click you can see the susequent BOM of these assemblies.
6. Example would be for a vehicle suppose engine, front wheel, back wheel are the "E"parts. Create BOM first for
these engine, front wheel and backwheel with respective material components.
Then create BOM for vehicle with these three "E".
When you see the BOM of vehicle after creation, you can see a tick mark against these E parts which shows that
they have BOM furtehr down and you can double click and see the components of these
Validation in PS
am trying to use validation in the Project. Can any one tell when are the call up points 110 and 120 trigerred ?
I want to validate one of the user defined fields in WBS.
Everything is working fine when I simulate the validation. But when I enter a value in the user defined field and save
the project then I do not get the error message as expected.
Does anybody have an idea what could be wrong ??
Answer :
Please see if you have checked the check box for Automatic validation in the relevant project profile.

Hierarchical Structure of the Project definition
A few Definitions of the terminologies used in the above diagram:
Project:
The project definition is the binding framework for all organizational elements within a project.
Work Break down Structure:

With a work breakdown structure you can divide the project into useful steps, specify fixed or
"basic" dates, specify the work involved, and determine project costs. The individual levels of
the hierarchy in a work breakdown structure enable you to organize a project into steps.
Work Break down Structure Element (Sub WBS):

You can further break down these steps into individual elements. Maximum steps supported
are 99.
Network:
It is a special type work order on which cost can be planned, controlled and monitored.
Activities:
These are the actual tasks that are to be executed for the completion of the project

SAP R/3 is based on a three tier client/server technology. Typically, it is made up of three functionally
distinct
layers
namely:
the
user
interface,
business
logic
and
database.
The user interface, which is otherwise known as the presentation server displays the interface for
users' communication with the SAP system. It is often referred to as the SAP GUI. As a matter of fact, it
is a program called sapgui.exe. The application server is where the business logic and data
manipulation takes place. Data processing, SAP administration tasks and client request/feedback
management are handled within the business layer. The database layer is synonymous to the database
server and it typically acts as a data repository for tables and other database objects and structures
Ideally, an R/3 system is composed of one database server, one or more application servers and one or
more presentation servers. SAP Business One on the other hand is composed of a database server and
one or more presentation servers.
the difference between SAP Business One and SAP R/3. The non technical answer to this question is
that; SAP Business One is SAP's offering for small and mid size companies, while R/3 is SAP's offering for
large companies.
Procedure: What to Do in Case of Power Failure in SAP Project.
The procedure to be followed in case of a power failure in the power sources of either the
productive or backup server.
1. Check the UPS Make sure the UPS is functioning properly, and check the remaining
time. You should have approximately XX minutes to shut down the system.
2. Log onto SAP and check for users and processes If any users are still on SAP, send a
system message for them to log off immediately. Check for background processes,
interrupted user processes, and other processes that may need attention before shutting
down, and record them in the Power Failure Log.
3. Stop SAP and Shut Down the Database Refer to Starting/Stopping the Database and SAP
for detailed instructions on shutting down SAP and the database.
4. Shut down the Server Refer to Powering On/Off the Server and the UPS for detailed
instructions on powering off the server
5. Power Off the UPS Refer to Powering On/Off the Server and the UPS for detailed
instructions on powering off the server

SAP Project System - A ready Reference ( Part 1 )
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/9622
Being a beginner in SAP PS is a challenge. As a techie, When I started my

ABAP Program in PS Module, I found a lot of scattered information but there
is no article or blog with consolidated information even on basic
terminologies of SAP PS. This blog is my attempt to provide an insight of

basic techno-functional aspects and terminologies of SAP PS to a novice.
In my first blog you will find the important terms of the PS module. I have
tried to explain them with the help of an example. Following this is the next
blog https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/9659 where the technicalities of the same
are covered.
The Project System (PS) module of SAP is specifically designed to provide comprehensive and fully integrated
project management functionality for SAP customers. A Project is a complex undertaking, bringing with it
huge data of different type.
At the beginning of each project, whether it involves developing a new product, make-to-order engineering or
internal organization, you need to define and set up the structures necessary to manage your project and
incorporate them into your existing organizations and processes. Before you can run a project in its entirety,
you must first describe the project goals precisely and create a structure for the project activities to be
carried out. A clear project structure provides a basis for successful project planning, monitoring and control.
Organizational Structures in Project System:
"
You create and manage your project structure in SAP R/3 Project System, by means of work breakdown
structures and networks.The WBS describes individual phases and functions of a project. Network contains
the individual project tasks and the dependencies between them in the form of activities and relationships
Some important terms:
Project Definition
Project Definition is general description of the project that you want to manage. It is a framework laid down
for all the objects created within a project. It contains organizational data that is binding for the entire
project.
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

WBS is a hierarchical model of the tasks to be performed in the project. It provides overview of the
project and forms basis for the project organization and coordination.It shows work, time and money spent
on the project. You can use it to plan dates & costs and allocate budget. The Work Breakdown Structure can
be displayed according to:
Phase
Function
Object
Individual tasks required to carry out the project is called WBS elements.
Network
The network describes project processing. Thus the Network contains instructions on how to carry out
activities in a specific way, in a specific order and in a specific time period.Main elements of network are
activities and relationships. It forms the basis for planning, analyzing and monitoring time schedules, costs, &
resources.
Activities
Activities are used to plan project staffing, capacity, material, PRTs, and service requirements. When
activities are assigned to WBS elements, detailed view of costs, dates, and capacities at WBS element could
be obtained. Its a task in a network which has a defined start and finish. An activity can be broken down into
activity elements.Three categories of activities in the Project System:
Internal Activities
External Activities
General Cost Activities
Activity element
Activity element is an activity which is subordinate to another activity. Activity elements contain the same
information as activities.Three categories of activity elements in the Project System:
Work elements
External Elements
General Cost Elements
Activity Type
Its a physical measure of activity output of a cost center .e.g. hours, number of units produced, machine
times, production times.
Milestones
Milestones are the events in the project to which particular importance is attached Or which trigger
predefined functions. In general they indicate transition between different departments or phases.
Milestones are assigned to activities and WBS elements:In PS milestones are used to:
Trigger predefined functions in network activities.
Carry out earned value analysis.
Determine dates in billing plan for sales orders.
Relationships
You use relationships to depict chronological and technical dependencies between activities. The relationship
determines the nature of the link between the individual activities. :
FS Relationship : An activity does not start until the preceding activity is completed.
SS Relationship : An activity can not start unless another activity has started.
FF Relationship : An activity can not be completed until another activity has been completed.
SF Relationship : An activity can not be completed until another succeeding activity has stared.
Confirmations
It is a part of network control. It documents the state of processing for the network activities and activity
elements. There are two types of confirmations Partial & Final.Confirmations are used to record:
The work center where the activity was carried out.
The person who carried out this activity.
The yield and scrap produced in an activity.
The actual values for the duration and dates.
Settlement
As a rule, projects are used to collect and monitor costs, but are not usually the final cost object. For this
reason the costs in atypical project will be settled at the end of the period.To this end, you store settlement
rules in the activity / WBS element requiring settlement. They contain information on settlement receivers,
cost apportionment and control data. Settlement receivers could be cost centers, G/L accounts. Etc.
Budget
The budget is the approved cost structure for an action or project in a particular period.Budgeting differs
from cost plan in that it is binding. In the approval phase you prescribe your project funds in the form of
budget. It is possible to allocate overall and annual budget in parallel.
Work Centers
Work center represents the resources responsible for executing an activity. In a work center, you can enter
the available capacity and an operating time. You can arrange the work centers in a hierarchy for capacity
evaluation purposes. Internal activities are assigned to work centers (resources) to be completed.A work
center is a physical unit within a company where an activity is performed.
Profit Center
It is subdivision of business organization which is set up for internal management control purposes. Profit
centers divide business up on a management basis. The basic aim of profit center accounting is to present
areas of the business as entities operating independently in the market.
Lots of jargons .let me site an instance of the construction project of a building..
Let say there is a construction company that is going to construct a Multi-Storey building.
Project Definition. The entire activity plan

for this project will come under this project definition. Overall budget needs to be estimated,
The first thing that needs to be created in the system is
assigned and get approved for the project. Project timeline needs to be decided. Project could be then
subdivided into separate parts which are actually
WBS elements:
1.
Land Acquisition
2.
Procurement
3.
Construction
4.
General
WBS elements
lets say in this e.g. we have 4 main
To every above WBS, budget and time line need to estimated.

Now to take an example we will drill down two WBS elements namely Land Acquisition and Construction.
- Land Acquisition could be sub divided into activities as in
Generation of request document for the land.

Soil testing
Approval for construction
Preparation of purchase order of the land
Above 4 activities should be done in sequence. As in second activity will start only after request document
for the land is completed and so on. Hence these activities have FS Relationship between them.
- Now take WBS element Construction.
It could be sub divided in to floor wise tasks. Let say, we have four story building and each floor has 4 flats.
So under WBS element Construction we may create separate
sub WBS element for each

last level of WBS elements
one for each flat on the floor. This way we will have hierarchy of the WBS elements.Finally
floor. Each sub WBS element of floor may be divided further into
last level of WBS elements i.e. WBS elements of the flats will have activities like
1.
Plumbing
2.
Electrical work
3.
Flooring
4.
Painting
5.
Furniture
These activities form the Network.
external activities as they are given to a outside

contractor. While the other activities are done by company labor so they are internal activities.
Let say Plumbing and Electricity work are the
Plumbing and Electrical work could be started simultaneously.While flooring needs be done once the
plumbing and Electrical work is complete. Hence they have FS relationship and so on. Now if we talk about
milestones:
1.
2.
3.
4.
First milestone could be purchasing the land

Second could construct the base of the building.
Third could be construct the floors
Fourth could be completion of plumbing and electrical work for all the flats.
And so on.
As I have said that Work center represents the resources responsible for executing an activity For the above
activities, work centers could be the company labor required for the construction, labor provided by the
external service center for plumbing and Electricity work. while Profit Centers could be the finally
constructed flats.

hi sheetal i am working on a report in PS and need to pull the last posting date with amount spend
on the project.... where can i those.
This is a very useful blog for all the techis...Very simple language and a lot of useful content...
Keep it up.
Both the parts are very much descriptive and can be used as reference for techies.
Starting point for beginners.
PS module generally remains behind in implementations for various reasons.
This would motivate ps-related persons in
understanding basics & methodology of how
SAP makes it easier in doing so.

In my previous blog https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/9622 , I had explained Basic PS

terminologies with the help of a simple example.
Now let me go to some technicalities of the same.
If some body asks me to develop report in PS module what basic information do I need?
Mainly I need to find out three things :
Master tables and there relationship with each other.
Standard transactions in PS module and
BAPIs used to deal with PS data.

Let's start with the master table
PS Master Tables and their relationship:

Hey, thanks for the blog on Project System. I think you might be interested to know about the Project
System ES bundle.
This ES bundle offers enterprise service-based integration with SAP Project System. One simple use would be
to have a contractor with a handheld update project status via an enterprise service (telling you, for
example, that the wiring on the third floor of the building is 50% complete, for example).
thanks for appreciating my work.

Give me some time , even i am not aware about this problem ..let me ask sdn team regarding the same.
Hey you can print this blog. Just Scroll the blog to right most corner and u will see PRINT option.

Template ( CO) -Controlling (CO)

A dynamic allocation tool that uses functions and formulas to calculate numerical values and the values of
Boolean expressions (true or false).
This tool is used for various purposes such as sender-receiver allocations and as an aid for formula
planning. Instead of preassigned allocation data, the template uses a generic description for any data
(such as the sender object, quantities, and costs). Since this data is not known at the time the template
allocation is performed, it is determined dynamically when the values are calculated.

Project Systems (PS)

End-to-end Project Management-environments developed from SAP WBS-elements
and networks. Specialty solutions include user status settings, project
version control, CATS (Cross Application Time Sheet), resource related
quote and billing tie in with SD. Provided: BPR, configuration as well as
requirements definition for specialty ABAP/4 reports and outputs.
SAP Project System (PS) - SD integrations:

The PS SD Integration is mainly for the customer projects.
System will generate projects/network during creation of sales order.
Your
sales
order
value
will
go
to
PS
as
planned
revenue.
When you do billing in sales order you will get actual revenue in the
project.
When the milestone is achieved or confirmation of the network activity,

billing block will be removed in your sales order for billing.
Also the DIP profile is another area to check out in PS-SD. The idea is to
use this in Resource Related Billing scenarios. Its a very interesting
feature that has been introduced in 4.6C onwards. This enables you to
select at various levels (like Cost element etc) how the billing needs to
be done.
Use the following path for DIP profile configuration.
SPRO-Project Systems-Revenues and Earnings-Integration with SD DocumentsCreate Quotations and Project Billing-Maintain Profiles for Quotations &
Billing.
The order should be project order. (PS1). In the material master strategy
group should be 85 (tab MRP 3) also put item category group as 0005 (tab
Sales Org.2)
First to create standard wbs and network as per project requirement. Please
also attach mile stones for billing plan. attach the material to the
network with the tcode cn08.
to create the sales order with the material then project will be created in
the back ground, the sales order number and project number will be the
same.
The revenue planning will be done automatically, only we need to plan the
cost. Any changes in the sales order will effect the project and vise

The details of CO settings for PS - SD integration

The CO Setting is: Maintain Assignment of SD-Conditions to CO-PA Value Fields
Controlling > Profitability Analysis > Flows of Actual Values > Transfer of
Billing Documents > Assign Value Fields (KE4I)
Assign Sales Orders to Project Account
This section describes which standard settings and values must exist in
Customizing for you to be able to assign a sales document (customer
quotation or sales order) to a WBS element manually.
The settings you need to line projects and sales documents manually are
prescribed by SAP. If you use these standard settings, you do not need to
make any additional settings in Customizing.
Strategy Groups
SAP has predefined strategy group 21 (with strategy 21) for the link
between sales documents and projects.
Notes:
If you do not maintain the strategy group for the material in the sales and
distribution document item, you cannot assign that item to a WBS element.
Alternatively, you can assign the strategy group to a material using MRP
group 0021 (also predefined).
Requirements Classes
SAP has predefined requirements class 80 with account assignment category D
(assignment to WBS element) for the link between projects and sales and
distribution documents. Requirements class 80 is assigned to strategy 21
using requirements type KP (also predefined).
Recommendation
do not change the standard settings supplied by SAP.
You need to set the SD/PS Assignment indicator on the control tab page of
the standard project definition, for PS-SD integration, assembly
processing.
During inquiry you can enter your WBS element, and do your project planning
cost and after that become your estimate price send to customer thru
quotation.
To ensure a one-to-one match between the project and its related sales
document, the number of the standard WBS element should always be longer
than ten characters.
Some more steps related to IDES data...
1).Requirement class 80 and requirement type KP.(Tcode OVZH)

2). Maintain the above in strategy 85 in planning strategy in SPRO.
3). Maintain requirement type and class for item category in VV07.
3) Create standard templates thru CJ91 and CN01.
4).Create materials thru MM01 and select material type as KMAT and strategy
group 85 as defined above and maintain item category as u have maintained
in spro.
5).Assign materials to network and WbS thru CN08.
With currency with PS and SD?

We have ATO process and have some issue with USD and CAD currency with PS
andSD
we are using a group currency in the controlling area (type 30 set as USD).
In addition we have object currency turned on for the Controlling Area so
we have company currency in parallel for each company assigned to the
controlling area. Within CO everything is working fine, the issue appears
to be when the CO-PS planned amount is passed to the sales order EK01
condition. In this case, CO-PS has both object currency and controlling
area currency but it uses the controlling area currency as the amount
passed to the sales order.
