SAP Note 26341 - Transfer of lot size ind. costs from MRP profile

Symptom:

You create an MRP profile, selecting the field "Lot size independent costs". You then create the MRP view on a material, entering the MRP profile as a reference. If, in the company code for the plant, a currency applies that does not have two decimal places, the lot size independent costs are not transferred correctly. (If, for example, the currency is the Italian lira, the value 1.00 is changed to 100.)

Cause and prerequisites

The currency field of the company code is assigned to the field "Lot size independent costs". However, this assignment does not make sense here since the MRP profile applies to all clients.

SAP Note 26347 - IBIP:Message batch input RIWO00-SELEC(02) not ...

Symptom:

RIWO00-SELEC(02) on SCREEN SAPMIWO0 ( 3400 / 4000 / 3000 / 1000 )
not available.
FM: S 00349 S00349 field RIWO00-SELE screen SAPMIWO0 nnnn

Cause and prerequisites

1. The window size you are working with is smaller than the standard size of 25 lines.

2. Variable step loops larger than 25 lines not capable of batch input.
Compression within border has too much space.
Refers to Release 3.0A-3.0C

Solution
1. Enlarge your window by at least 25 lines. If this is not possible,
use the second solution.

2. Another method is to change the loop from variable to fixed. This
ensures that two loop lines are always available for batch input.
For this, start Transaction SE52 for program SAPMIWO0 and the
corresponding screen. Confirm function key 'LOOP' and afterwards
'Fixed Loop'. After this, save and generate the screen.

3.) Special procedure for 3.0A-3.0C, if the batch input for a window
with 25 lines does not work.

SAPMIWO0 3400 / 4000 must be zoomed out.

Transaction: SE51
Program: SAPMIWO0
Screen: 3400/4000/3000
You must gain an additional 2 lines. You can check this by the number of lines occupied in the screen attributes.

Delete the outer border. You can also delete blank lines. The step loop must not be within a border.

*--------------------------------------------------------------------*
The result should resemble the diagram below.

SAP Note 26329 - oncatlgr: "The catalogers' named pipe is missing."

Symptom:

When carrying out database archives via CCMS (transaction DB13), the archive terminates and the following error message appears in the file '~adm/archive.log':
21:30:47 The catalogers' named pipe is missing.
21:30:51 Attempt to start cataloger failed.
In most cases, there are several oncatlgr's in the process list after such a termination.

Cause and prerequisites

The program 'infarcexe' (which is started by the R/3 System) tests first whether an oncatlgr process is already running in the system and whether the named pipe of this process ('/tmp/IX_ARC_CAT_V6.') exists.
If the named pipe is missing, then the above error message is written to the log file and a new oncatlgr is started.

There are two reasons why this named pipe can be missing:

      a) If the system runs using database version 7.x (for example, under OSF/1 on a DEC alpha), this error message appears continually since the name of the pipe has changed to '/tmp/IX_ARC_CAT_V7.' in this case.
      b) The named pipe in the '/tmp' directory was deleted manually.
Solution

This problem has been corrected starting with SAP release 2.2G and 3.0C.

Until then:

  • Under the user informix, stop all oncatlgr processes using "stop_onctlgr".
  • If the system runs using database version 7.x, use the following workaround until a new infarcexe is released:
    su - informix
    cd /tmp;
    ln -s IX_ARC_CAT_V7. IX_ARC_CAT_V6.
  • Use Note 24253 to help get rid of any inconsistencies that may arise.

SAP Note 26317 - Set up for LOGON group for autom. load balancing

Symptom:

It is unclear how the LOGON groups should be set up for automatic load balancing.

Other terms

CCMS
Transaction SMLG
Group logon
Group logon procedure
SAPLOGON
SAPGUI

Reason and Prerequisites

Group distribution can be configured in a variety of ways.

Solution
Introduction

LOGON groups are used to automatically distribute user logons to individual instances or to groups of SAP instances (Applications Server).
The idea behind this is that a user does not log on to a special instance but rather logs on to a so-called LOGON group, and is then logged on to the relevant instance with the lowest load (that is, the best average response time. The advantages of using this procedure are twofold:

    1. Users are no longer tied down to individual instances that might possibly become overloaded.
    2. Since users now log on to logical LOGON groups and not to physical instances, instances can be exchanged or created within a group without the SAPGuis having to be reconfigured.
LOGON group maintenance

LOGON group maintenance and configuration can be carried out using Transaction SMLG (Tools -> Administration -> Computing center -> Management system -> Configuration -> LOGON Groups).

      a) A common group is used for all instances. If only a small number of instances exist, this configuration is the best solution as regards optimal load balancing and redundancy. Only if a larger number of instances exist does it make sense to distribute users for each specific application to two or more instances. Example of a system with only a few instances:
      Instance Group Max. no. users Max. average resp. time
      app1_C11_00 Public
      app2_C11_00 Public
      app3_C11_00 Public

      Example of a system with a large number of instances:
      Instance Group Max. no. users. Max. average resp. time
      app1_C11_00 FI-Users
      app2_C11_00 FI-Users
      app3_C11_00 SD-Users
      app4_C11_00 CO-Users
      app5_C11_00 CO-Users
      app6_C11_00 SD-Users
      b) One or more LOGON groups are set up for several instances. Several groups can be allocated to the same instances.
      In this case, the users of a LOGON group are distributed in such a way that the load on each of the relevant instances is as little as possible. If only a limited of users are to be allowed access to instances, or if a predefined average response time may not be exceeded, then maximum values can be entered for the number of users or for the average response time. The optional definition of these values guarantees as much as possible that users are only logged on to the instance if the limiting values are not exceeded. However, the definition of limiting values does not prevent users from logging on to the instance directly. It is also possible to log on to an instance with exceeded threshold values if all of the instances available for the LOGON group in question were also defined with limiting values and these were subjected to a relatively greater load. Example:
      Instance Group Max. no. users Max. av. resp. time
      app1_C11_00 FI Users 20 1500
      app1_C11_00 SD Users 20 1500
      app1_C11_00 Adminstration 20 1500
      app2_C11_00 FI Users
      app2_C11_00 CO Users
      app3_C11_00 SD Users


Note: The definition of limiting values is optional and is not normally visible. You can make this visible by choosing Properties -> Display Variants -> Change in the menu list. Double-click the logon group and a dialog box opens that allows you to adjust the limiting value.
Limiting values must always be kept uniform for each instance (this is regulated automatically by the maintenance Transaction SMLG), since the average response time or the number of users can only be calculated globally for each instance and not for user of a specific group. In other words, the limiting values apply to one instance, regardless of group, but at the same time, can be set up differently for the same group for another instance.
However, in most cases, it is unnecessary to specify limiting values since the sole aim is to achieve an even distribution of users with regard to system load.

      c) Groups are set up for only one instance, but several groups can be allocated to an instance. The distribution of user logons resulting from this configuration is not dependent on the system load. That is why it does not make sense to define limiting values for user number or average response time either. The disadvantage of this is that if an instance is not available an alternative instance is not automatically provided. The group definition must then be changed so that the logons of the group affected are redirected to other instances.
      Example:
      Instance Group Max. no. users Max. av. resp. time
      app1_C11_00 FI Users
      app2_C11_00 CO Users
      app3_C11_00 Administration
Technical information
The utilization information is determined for every instance by a report which is executed automatically every 5 minutes. This report stores information in a special storage area in the message server from which the SAPGuis can then request the best instances of a group at that particular point in time. To avoid situations where a large number of users want to log on within this 5-minute period (this would lead to a large load being placed on the best instances of a group at that particular point in time), the utilization information for each instance is updated after every fifth logon.

SAP Note 26313 - No reporting tree for current application (PS)

Symptom:

The message "No reporting trees were created for the current application" (message KN124) appears when report selection is accessed in the Project System (transaction CJR1).

Cause and prerequisites

Transport error.

Solution
Please register reporting tree PS01 for the application PS: R/3 Customizing Implementation Guide -> Project System -> Information system -> General functions -> Create/Change report selection (transaction OPIR)
Enter report tree PS01 (can be selected via 'Possible entries') and save your entry.

SAP Note 26312 - SAPDBA: data file "" could not be created.

Symptom:

The following problem occurs during the restore/recovery with SAPDBA:
After the successful restore of all data files of the database, SAPDBA possibly tries to create further data files with "ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE ..." and reports:
SAPDBA: The specified datafile does not exist
or the size is not specified.
SAPDBA: The restore of datafiles failed, the database was changed.
SAPDBA: data file "" could not be created.

Cause and prerequisites

SAPDBA selects the files belonging to the database from v$datafile.
As a result, SAPDBA reads an empty file name in a double line due to the ORACLE bug described in note 21762 and tries to generate the file "" instead of ignoring it.

Solution
The ORACLE bug should be corrected as of Version ORACLE 7.3.
SAPDBA will ignore empty file names as of 3.0B or 2.2G (2.1M).

If the error occurs, as described, after the restore, you cannot continue with sapdba. Check the log to determine that no other errors occurred during the restore. This is most likely.
Then you have to recover manually:
sqldba lmode=y
SQLDBA > connect internal
SQLDBA > recover database [until ...]; (see notes 4161, 4164)
SSQLDBA > alter database open [resetlogs];
SQLDBA > exit


To avoid the same error during the next restore/recovery, it would be possible to delete the unnecessary entry from the control file. However, this can only be done by recreating the control file:

complete OFFLINE backup of the database! sqldba lmode=y
SQLDBA > connect internal
SQLDBA > alter database backup controlfile to trace;
You can now edit the file $ORACLE_HOME/saptrace/usertrace/ora_.trc (delete the comments) and use it to recreate the control file: SQLDBA > !cd saptrace/usertrace
SQLDBA > ora_.trc
SQLDBA > exit

SAP Note 26311 - Scheduling agreement and bill of material - quantit

Symptom:

Sub-items in a sales document, which contribute to the availability check / transfer of requirements. The main item does not contribute to these. If the quantity is then set at zero in the main item, then the corresponding schedule line in the sub-item is deleted. If the quantity is entered again in the main item, no schedule line is created in the sub-item.

Cause and prerequisites

The system cannot tell, whether the schedule line in the main item was deleted seperately or due to a change in the main item.

Solution
The following correction prevents the schedule line quantities being changed to zero in the main item. The corresponding schedule lines must then be deleted instead.

SAP Note 26309 - RGCEDR20: Identical file names

Symptom:

The PC download of financial reporting data from R/3 Financial Accounting for the R/2 consolidation by means of program RGCEDR20 creates identical file names ("POS_0000"). Each file contains data of a company. As a result, data was only downloaded for one company.

Cause and prerequisites

Integral values were used as company ID. Six characters are available which were not completely used.
Example: Company '1' is stored internally as '000001'.
Company '99' is stored internally as '000099'.

The file name is made up of the fixed text fragment "POS_" and the first four figures of the company ID. As a consequence in this above example, file name
"POS_0000" is used for every company.

Solution
Not the first four figures of the company ID are to be used but the last four.

SAP Note 26306 - Syntax error SAPLSUM5 RV_DELIVERY_ADD

Symptom:

Cause and prerequisites


Example: Matchcode MBAN
The error occurs in function module MC_UPDATE_MBAN, which is generated by report SAPMACOP. This function module has a syntax error, which causes an ENDFORM statement to be inserted in the wrong place.

Note: This error also occurs with other matchcodes! A syntax check
in the main program, e.g. SAPLSUM5 (using SE38) determines
the incorrect line number in the program. It is then possible
to determine the matchcode affected.

SAP Note 26304 - MB90: No collective slip after upgrade from 2.2C

Symptom:

After the release upgrade from 2.2C to a later release, it is no longer possible to edit the collective slips created in 2.2C with MB90 (Material document -> Edit output).

Cause and prerequisites

Up to and including Release 2.2C, the collective slips were created with line item number 0000.
As of Release 2.2D, they are created with line item number 0001. For this reason, the "Collective slips" indicator is no longer necessary. It was made suppressed on the initial screen of transaction MB90.

Solution
Display the "Collective slips" indicator again on the initial screen of MB90 to edit the "old" collective slips. To do this, see correction in program RM07MNDR.
If you have edited all collective slips with line item 0000, you can suppress the indicator again, since all new collective slips are listed together with the individual slips.

SAP Note 26301 - General info. on depreciation method conversion

Symptom:

It is not clear when a conversion of the depreciation method is carried out.

Solution

Generally, it only decided with the annual balance carried forward whether the valuation is carried out according to the original method (calculation key) or according to the conversion method (conversion key in the calculation key).
Exceptions are:

  • Conversion method '1 = conversion if the depreciation of the conversion key is greater than the one of the calculation key' .

Here the system also checks for the original acquisition, in addition to the annual balance carried forward, whether to switch to the conversion method.

  • Conversion method '5 = Conversion upon end of planned life'

If the end of planned life is not a fiscal year-end, the decision as to which method applies is made individually for each transaction ( annual balance carried forward or transaction ) by means of the asset value date. The calculation for one transaction, however, is not carried out according to two methods ( period preceding the end of planned life and period following the end of planned life ). For the decision as to which method applies, it is only relevant whether the asset value date of the transaction precedes or follows the planned life. This means that a conversion following the end of the planned life for an annual balance carried forward is only carried out upon completion of the fiscal year, which is at the end of the useful life. For a transaction, it is decided individually whether its asset value date precedes or follows the end of the useful life.

Note
The conversion to another percentage rate or base value in the levels of a calculation key is not to be seen as a conversion method in this context. This conversion to another level is carried out period-specifically for each transaction.

Example of conversion following the end of planned life

  • Depreciation start date: 07/01/1995
  • Useful life: 5 Years
  • End of useful life: 06/30/2000
  • Acquisition and production costs: 100
  • Depreciation method: linear, percentage rate according to useful life, base value 100% of the acquisition and production costs
  • Conversion after the end of useful life: linear, percentage rate according to useful life, base value 50% of the acquisition and production costs


The result is the following depreciation development

  • 1995: 10 (100/60*6)
  • 1996: 20 (100/60*12)
  • 1997: 20 (100/60*12)
  • 1998: 20 (100/60*12)
  • 1999: 20 (100/60*12)
  • 2000: 18 (100/66*12) or alternatively 2000: 10 (100/60*6)
  • 2001: 10 (50 /60*12)

Thus, a conversion is not carried out in the year 2000, however, the useful life is internally increased by the 6 months and the calculation is continued with the old method since it was determined, that the depreciation is to be carried out also after the end of the useful life and also 'below zero'. If you want the alternative display, you must change the calculation key so that a calculation is only carried out up to the end of the useful life and not 'below zero'.
A transaction with asset value date up to 06/30/2000 is calculated with theold method; a transaction with asset value date as of 07/01/2000 is calculated with the conversion method.

SAP Note 26231 - Discounts on characteristic level (VA00, VA01)

Symptom:

In object dependencies, a price and a discount are set up as actions on characteristic level. The price was given condition type VA00. The discount was given condition type VA01. When a sales order is created and this characteristic is chosen, the price VA00 and discount VA01 are taken.

However, discount VA01 affects not just the VA00 condition for the same characteristic, but also the entire price which was accumulated up to the corresponding level of the pricing procedure.

Cause and prerequisites

..

Solution
In Release 2.2:
---------------
Define different condition types for each characteristic and add further levels to the pricing procedure.
Example: 50 VA00 ( Variant condition for characteristic A )
51 VA01 (Discount for characteristic A, i.e. ref.step 50)
60 VB00 (Variant condition for characteristic B)
61 VB01 (Discount for characteristic B, i.e. ref.step 60)

As of Release 3.0:
------------------
Explode BOM for the configurable material in the sales order. If a component results for every characteristic/characteristic value, and this component is an independent item in the sales order, then material price PR00 can also be used for the component instead of pricing it via VA00. A 'normal' material discount (instead of discount VA01) can then also be used for this item.

Cause and prerequisites

1) The company code in the billing document is determined from the sales organization in the standard system. If a different company code is now set via the data transport into the billing document ( VOFM ) and the two company codes have different local currencies, then this error occurs.
2) As of 2.2F (note 22771), the company code for the intercompany billing document is no longer determined from the sales organization but from the plant for intercompany billing. If both of these company codes have different local currencies, then this error occurs.

SAP Note 26189 - Creating total for each main asset number

Symptom:

Customer wants to use summarization to main numbers in reporting but the main number is a non-capitalized fixed asset and is therefore rejected in some reports (RAGITT01 RABEST01, and so on ) for these variants.
A deactivated fixed asset acts in the same way as a non-capitalized asset.
Report RAVERS01 does not support function 'Totals per main no.'.

Cause and prerequisites

Since the main number is not capitalized, it is not listed.Since the main asset master record is used as 'basis' for the summarization to main numbers, the subnumbers are also not listed.

Solution
    1. From the viewpoint of SAP, there is no simple solution.The error is corrected with the conversion to a new reporting method. This occurs with Release 4.6 with the ALV reports, it cannot be implemented in advance.
2. A good workaround is a separate sort version, where the lowest sort level is the asset number (field name 'ANLN1') and the report is called with the function 'Create group totals only'.

SAP Note 26185 - PPPR: Sorting components in withdrawal papers

Symptom:

The output sequence of the withdrawal slips or component sorting in the material provision list does not meet the company-internal requirements.

Cause and prerequisites
Solution
The sort sequence can easily be adapted: Copy the layout set and the respective report to make the changes in your own customer-specific copies. Since the standard reports and layout sets change sometimes, it is not always guaranteed that you can print your changed layout set with the standard report after the next upgrade.

SAP Note 26182 - PPPR: Assigning print reports and layout sets

Symptom:

The printing of shop floor papers is terminated.

Cause and prerequisites
  • Incorrect assignment of layout sets and print reports. The correct assignment is described below according to release.
  • Another reason may be an outdated layout set translation. In this case, you should be able to print with logon language German. There generally is a special solution note here.
  • When you print your own client-specific layout sets using a standard report, the error may occur after an update because the standard report and standard layout set were changed. In this case, you would have to copy the print report in addition to the customer layout set into the customer name range in order to make the modification independent of the changes in the standard system.
Solution
The following layout sets and print reports are currently delivered:
List Report Layout set
Object list PPPROBJU PPPR_OBJECT-LIST
Operation control ticket PPPRSTEU PPPR_JOB-CTRTICK
