n Projects are planned tasks with specific characteristics:

é They are usually complex, unique, and can involve a high degree of risk.

é They have precise targets which are agreed between the ordering party (project sponsor) and thecontractor.

é They are limited in duration, and are cost and capacity intensive.

é Several departments are involved in a project.

é They are subject to specific quality requirements.

é They are often strategically important for the business carrying them out.

n Projects are usually an integral part of a company’s business processes. If you want to be able toregulate and control all of the tasks involved in carrying out a project, you will need to set up aproject-specific organizational team. From an organizational point of view, this should be located"between" the user departments involved (i.e. act as a central interface).

n Projects are a balancing act between differing demands and bottlenecks. For instance, limited resourcesare available or the costs framework has been predefined. Projects can involve a high degree of risk fora company, as in general the costs are high, but there is no guarantee that they will be concluded.

n The project itself comprises several phases. A high degree of precision is required when planningand coordinating large and complex projects. When planning the flow of a project, you will scheduledeadlines and dates, make resources available, and allocate funds. The Project System supports youin all project phases.

n The various phases depicted above represent an ideal project flow. In your own specific project, youcan omit certain phases, overlap phases with other phases, or allow certain phases to run in parallelto each other.

n The success of any project is only partially dependent on the planning tool used (for example, theR/3 Project System). This training course does not examine the question of how best to structuredifferent types of project. There is a wealth of literature available on this subject. The points listedabove are simply basic rules that you must observe in order to manage projects successfully.

n A work breakdown structure (WBS) is a model of a project, and shows the project activities to befulfilled in hierarchical form. It forms the operative basis for planning costs, revenues, and payments,as well as for scheduling, and budgeting.

n Activities are used to show the flow of a project or of the actions involved in a project. Individualactions can be linked to each other in terms of so called “activities”. Activities form the operativebasis for planning and controlling dates, costs, and resources (personnel, machinery, materials).

n When activities are assigned to WBS elements, the dates and costs defined in the individual activitiesare totaled up (aggregated) at the WBS level, and can be evaluated. Activity funds already assignedare checked against the budgets of the WBS elements.

n The work breakdown structure is the operative basis for further planning in projects. The focus hereis on planning and monitoring costs, budgets and basic dates. Networks and network activities aremore suitable for planning resources and scheduling than WBS’s and WBS elements.

n Common abbreviations in R/3:

• WBS (work breakdown structure)

• WBS element (work breakdown structure element)

n A work breakdown structure comprises work breakdown structure elements and their hierarchicalstructure.

n The project definition contains default values and profile data for the WBS elements, for exampleassignments to particular organizational units in the R/3 system. The basic dates for the entire projectand the planning parameters for costs and dates are stored at the project definition level. The projectdefinition thus forms a frame round the project.

n 1RWH��A project definition is not an account assignment object (that is, you cannot post to it).

n The WBS elements form the operative basis of a work breakdown structure. Planning data and actualdata is recorded and aggregated at the WBS element level.

n In addition to the transactions above, you can also use the Structure/Dates information system tomake changes to existing work breakdown structures. You can also use the Information System tocreate new project structures.

n You can use the structure planning, project planning board, and "Create work breakdown structure"transactions in the R/3 Project System to create a work breakdown structure directly.

n One example of how to create a work breakdown structure indirectly is to call up the "Create Network"transaction and to copy from a standard network. If the standard network is assigned to a standardWBS, you can generate a WBS when you save your new network.

n Assembly processing is another indirect method of generating a network or a WBS from a sales order(see the unit entitled Assembly Processing).

n The project profile is the most important profile for the work breakdown structure. It contains defaultvalues and control data for the project. For the sake of clarity, the project profile is subdivided intofour sections: Control, Organization, Planning board/dates and Controlling. The various fields in theproject profile are dealt with in more detail in the appendix.

n In the "Project Number Coding Mask" table in Customizing, you define the appearance of the codingmasks in the Project System. Please note that, even though you can make additions to the masks later,you cannot take anything away if WBSs have been already created using this project coding mask.

n In the "Special Characters" table, you specify the special characters for WBSs, and you also specifythe following for the project coding: whether coding must be used, how long the key should be, andwhether this length is compulsory. In Release 4.6, there is a new indicator which you can use todefine a temporary placeholder for determining a project number automatically. This placeholder isonly used if a free project coding FDQQRW be determined automatically.

n You use operative indicators to define the characteristics of a WBS element, and to specify whattasks the WBS element will assume during project execution:

é WBS elements for which you want to plan costs are flagged as planning elements.

é WBS elements to which you want to post actual costs are flagged as account assignment elements.

é WBS elements for which you want to plan or post revenues are flagged as billing elements.

n Other indicators for WBS element functions during project execution are: Statistical and groupingelement

é The "Statistical" indicator specifies whether a WBS element is used only for statistical purposes,or whether it works with real costs. You can only specify that a WBS element is statistical if it isan accounting element or a billing element.

é You use grouping WBS elements to group the material requirements from several WBS elementsfor components kept in project stock in one or more projects on one WBS element.

n The statuses determine which business transactions are permitted and which are prohibited in thesystem. The system statuses have been set up by SAP and cannot be changed. They control the mainbusiness transactions. You can, however, define your own user statuses to attain a greater level ofdetail.

n You define user statuses in the status profile in Customizing. You can enter your user statuses here,and define which business transactions are permitted or prohibited

n You can also specify the sequence in which user statuses should occur.

n The user status can be set or deleted manually for several WBS elements at the same time.

n Individual status profiles can be defined for a project definition and WBS elements. If a status profilehas not yet been defined in the project profile, you can still specify in the application which statusprofile should be used the first time you set a user status.

n Milestones are events that are of particular significance or interest to the project flow.They are assigned to individual WBS elements or activities (see the unit "Networks").

n Milestones can be used both in operative WBS’s and standard WBS’s.

n Milestones are created either manually or by copying from a standard milestone. If you wish, youcan also include a group of milestones. A so-called "milestone group" is made up of several standardmilestones. It is created in Customizing for PS, and individual standard milestones are assigned tothe group.

n Standard milestones can only be used to copy from (in other words, they cannot be used in theoperative process).

n As of Release 4.5, you can use milestones for the purposes of milestone trend analysis.

n You can enter specific data in user-defined fields for every WBS element. The system provides twotext fields 20 characters long, two text fields 10 characters long, two quantity fields with quantityunits, two value fields with currency units, two date fields and two checkboxes.

n The field key determines the name of the respective user field, and specifies whether it is ready forinput. If you change the field key for the WBS element, the name of the user-defined field itselfchanges, but the contents of the field stays the same. If you evaluate user-defined fields in theinformation system and use different field keys, this can cause confusion and lead to misinterpretation(due to the different names of the user-defined fields). You define field keys in PS Customizing.

n You can define a user exit that enables you to develop your own special checks for user-defined fields.

n If the user-definable fields available do not satisfy your requirements, you can use a user exit todevelop additional fields for WBS elements (and the project definition).

n The network profile and network type are important tables in PS Customizing where you specify thecharacteristics of a network. They store default values and control data for the network in question.

n When you create a network, the network profile and the network type are passed on to the system, asis the reference to a plant. The system takes the plant and the network type, and, on the basis ofthese, searches for control data and default values in three other tables in Customizing: the3DUDPHWHUV�IRU�QHWZRUN�W\SH��the�&RQILUPDWLRQ�SDUDPHWHUV�and the 6FKHGXOLQJ�SDUDPHWHUV�profiles.

n The network header contains default organizational assignment and control data that applies to theentire network (similar to the project definition for WBS elements). In the network header, you canassign a network to a work breakdown structure, a sales order, or a superordinate network (if youwork with subnetworks).

n Activities form the basis for planning and executing networks. Each activity can be assigned to anyWBS element (as long as it is an account assignment element). The network is scheduled at theactivity level.

n Relationships determine the order in which activities are carried out. Consequently, relationships- and the duration of the activities - are essential for scheduling networks.

n You use activity elements to split activities up into more detail. The planning data entered foractivity elements supplements the planning data of the activities.

n Internally processed activities contain a work center at which the work is to be carried out.They contain the working time and the duration of the activity. The assignment of the work center to acost center provides an activity type and a rate so that planned costs can be calculated for the activity.

n External activities are used for procuring activities or services that are not procured within yourcompany. Purchase requisitions are generated that are processed in Purchasing.

n General cost activities allow you to plan cost that cannot be assigned to neither internal nor externalactivities, for example expenses or insurance premiums.

n Activity elements allow you to map network activities in greater detail. For example, it is possible tocomplement an internal processing activity, which describes the transportation of a material, with acost element, which describes the insurance for that transportation process.

n Activity elements have almost the same functionality as activities. Types of activity elements include:internal processing elements, external processing elements, and general costs elements. All activityelements have a date reference to the activity to which they are assigned. The activity elementsthemselves do not affect scheduling. For this reason, they do not have any relationships or durations.Materials and relationships are assigned to the superior activity.

n Example: several departments in your company work on the same activity. You use activity elementsto enable each department to plan independently while at the same time being bound to thescheduling data defined for the higher-level activity.

n All of the functions you need to create a network are available in the network structure graphic(functionality for inserting activities or relationships, for example).

n You can access the network structure graphic from various transactions in the Project System (fromthe network, from time scheduling, and from the Structure/Dates information system, for example).

n The cycle analysis is a function that you can only perform in the network graphic. A cycle is a closedsequence of relationships and activities ("closed" means that, when you start out from an activity,you end up back at the same activity, when you pass through the sequence of relationships). If theactivity-relationship-activity path is cyclical, you will not be able to schedule the network. Cycleanalysis is a tool that enables you to detect cyclical relationships, and correct them.

n Resource planning in networks includes the planning of internal and external activities, theprocurement of materials, the assignment of texts and documents as well as the planning ofmilestones. When you plan milestone dates or determine the dates on which materials are required,you can reference the dates of the superordinate activity (you can of course also enter definite dateswithout referencing the activity).

n Milestones are events that are of particular significance to the project flow. You can assign milestonesto activities or WBS elements.

n If you want to use particular milestones several times in project planning, you should create standardmilestones, and use these as templates to copy from.

n You use milestones in the Project System for the following tasks and functions:

é To trigger defined milestone functions in activities

é For the milestone technique of progress analysis

é To determine dates in a sales order

é For information purposes

é For milestone trend analysis (as of Release 4.5)

n There is an exchange of data between the network and the subnetwork: the WBS assignment, salesorder assignment and, if applicable, configuration data are taken from the header of the network.The basic dates of the activity are copied to the basic dates of the header of the subnetwork, and it ispossible to copy the settlement rule, the profit center and the business area.

n The control key of the higher-level activity is changed on the basis of the network type of the higher-level network and of the subnetwork. This determines which tasks are carried out by the higher-levelactivity (relevance for costing, relevance for scheduling, etc.)

n You can also copy the relationships of the higher-level activity to the subnetwork.

n You can also create maintenance orders (PM orders) as subnetworks of a network.As of Release 4.6, you can schedule these PM orders from the Project System.

n You can define subnetworks for subnetworks (until you have achieved the level of detail you require).In other words, you can create a subnetwork for a subnetwork for a subnetwork, and so on.

n There are several reasons why activities are assigned to WBS elements. First, this means that datescan be exchanged between activities and WBS elements during scheduling. Second, this assignmentis used for cost planning purposes. Third, it is possible to define a settlement rule automatically forthe activities. For example, you might define a rule whereby settlement is made to the correspondingWBS element, or you might specify that the settlement rule of the corresponding WBS elementshould be used.

n Activity elements are also assigned to WBS elements. The assignment has the same functionality asin the case of the activities, but has no influence on time scheduling of WBS elements.

n If you use templates that are assigned to each other (that is, if you use standard networks that areassigned to standard WBS’s), there are two ways in which you can proceed. Either you start bycreating an operative network (from a template) - in this case, a WBS will be assigned when yousave. Alternatively, you can start by creating an operative WBS (by copying a template and all itsactivities) - in this case, the activities will be included right from the start. In the latter case, you canuse the Project Builder, project planning board or structure planning transactions.

n The term "version"�is used in different�contexts in the Project System. Different types of versionsinclude simulation versions, project versions and CO planning versions�

n Simulation versions in the Project System are versions that you can change. You might, for example,create simulation versions in the following situations:

é In the quotation phase: generally speaking, there is still no operative project at this point.

é To draw up alternative planning scenarios for existing operative projects or parts of these.

n Project versions are snapshots of a project at a specific point, and are used for documenting theprogress of a project over time. Both quantities and values are stored in versions. Project versions arecreated either manually, or automatically when a status changes. In the latter case, the project profilecontains a reference to a version profile which specifies the name of the project version to be createdwhen a particular user or system status is set.

n CO planning versions are used to plan costs and revenues. You can copy values from one version toanother. You can change planned values manually in every version - the costed values are retained.

n Simulation versions are used to draw up alternative "what if?" planning scenarios. They are createdmanually, can be changed, and, if necessary, deleted easily (unlike released operative WBS’s withactivities).

n When an operative project is copied to a simulation version (or vice versa), a log file is created.This contains the objects that were transferred and any error messages that were issued in the process.

n Simulation versions can be created either for an entire WBS, or for subhierarchies of a WBS.

n Simulation versions are edited using the project planning board, or - as of Release 4.6C - using theProject Builder.

n At the beginning of a project, you can use simulation versions to simulate projects before youactually transfer them to an operative project. Simulation versions are particularly useful during thequotation phase and for comparing different "what if?" scenarios. It is possible to plan severalsimulation versions. You can then decide which version is the most suitable.

n Even when a project is running, you can copy operative projects to simulation versions, analyze andwork with these, and then transfer them back to the operative project. The system can conduct a testrun to see if it is possible to transfer a project or simulation version.

n If you want to work with simulation versions, you must create simulation profiles and version keysin Project System Customizing.

n When you transfer data from operative projects to simulation versions (or vice versa), the followingobjects are copied:

é Work breakdown structure

é Network with activities, activity elements, relationships, and subnetworks

é Milestones

é Materials for the activity

é Documents, PS texts and long texts (depending on the simulation profile used)

é Capacity requirements

é Invoicing plan for the network, and billing plan for the WBS element (as of Release 4.5A)

n The following objects are not copied:

é Other orders that are not networks (e.g. no production orders)

é Production resources/tools

n Costs that you have planned manually for operative WBS elements are transferred to the simulationversion. However, this cost planning data cannot be changed in the simulation version.You can only change costs at the network level in simulation versions.

n Customizing for simulation versions comprises two steps:

é The key for simulation versions merely determines how the names for simulations are formed.You should work with version keys right from the start, since they cannot be created afterwardswithout deleting existing simulations.

é The simulation profile determines whether texts should also be copied (in addition to the structureinformation) from simulations to operative projects (and vice versa). If you work without asimulation profile, all texts are copied. The simulation profile is contained as the default value forthe project definition in the project profile.

n Prior to Release 4.6C, the project planning board was the only transaction available for changingsimulation versions. The functionality available here is the same as for editing normal operativeprojects.

n The project planning board has been enhanced extensively for Release 4.6. For example:

é Extended toolbar

é It is now easier to create new objects (activities, milestones, ...).

é Activities and activity elements can be confirmed

é Integrated cost and material overview, overview of assigned maintenance orders

é You can now create several relationships at once with a single click of your mouse.

n In the appendix you will find an overview and brief description of the icons in the project planningboard.

n The time settings for the chart area of the project planning board are determined by three profiles,which are defined in the project planning board profile.

é The time profile determines when the evaluation period starts and finishes. It also specifies whenin the evaluation period the planning period starts and finishes. Consequently, the start and finishof the pre-evaluation period and post-evaluation period are also set.

é The scale of the time axis determines the ratio used for the pre-evaluation period and post-evaluationperiod with respect to the planning period. The scale of the planning period is entered directly.

é The profile for the time scales determines the individual time periods (year, quarter, monthlyperiods. ...). It determines when a specific period is used, and the display size of the period.

n If you create a sales order for a material to which a requirement class for assembly processing hasbeen assigned, the system automatically creates a so-called assembly order in the background, andstarts assembly processing. In this case, assembly processing omits the MRP planning stage, andgenerates an operative order directly from the sales order. You can create the following assemblyorders: network, production order, planned order, process order, maintenance or service order.

n In assembly processing, you can use the entire functionality of both sales orders and assemblyorders. For example, scheduling is carried out for the sales order and the assembly order in one runto ensure that they both have accurate delivery dates and quantities. Because of the direct connectionbetween the sales order and the assembly order, all additional changes made in one document areautomatically reflected in the other document.

n To use assembly processing (with networks), you need a suitable standard network as a template forthe network that is to be created.

n A material must be entered in the sales document. At least the sales views (item category group)must have been defined in the corresponding material master. If you determine the requirements typevia the MRP group or strategy group, you will also need the MRP views of the material master.

n The "Network parameters for sales order" table forms a link between the material and standardnetwork. If you want to have completely automatic assembly processing, you must make entries inthis table. Otherwise, a dialog box appears in sales order maintenance where you can enter themissing data.

n In requirement type determination, the system determines a requirements type and requirements classthat enable assembly processing. In the standard system, you can use requirements class 212 andrequirements type KMPN as templates.

n If you use assembly processing, you use it to create a network (by copying from a template). If thetemplate is assigned to a standard WBS, an operative WBS will also be created when you save thesales order. Creating a network in assembly processing is the same as creating a network (by copyingfrom a template) in the Project System.

n A standard network is structured in much the same way as a network. However, there are differences:for instance, a standard network has the same internal structure as a task list (comparable to thestructure of a routing in Logistics).

n You assign materials, milestones and PS texts to a standard network. Material are assigned by meansof material BOMs and standard BOMs (see later in unit).

n You can define possible statuses for standard networks in PS Customizing.

n Standard networks are task lists in the R/3 System (as are routings, for example), in contrast tooperative networks, which are orders. This means that there are small differences between a standardnetwork and an operative network:

é Materials are assigned by means of BOMs

é Standard networks can be stored as multiple alternatives

é The data in the standard network header is different (usage, planner group,...)

é Responsible persons (planner group)

n You cannot assign materials directly to a standard network, but only indirectly using bills of material(BOMs). The BOM in question can be either a material BOM or a standard BOM.

n A standard BOM does not have a "header component"; it is a tool that is only used for assigningmaterial components to a standard network. It is created and edited directly in the standard network.

n In a second step, the individual BOM items (materials) are assigned to the activities of the standardnetwork.

n The explosion of phantom assemblies is multi-level so that the individual materials can be assignedto the network activities.

n You use standard WBS’s as templates for operative WBS’s. You can use standard WBS’s to plan thestructure in advance (that is, the WBS hierarchy, organizational assignments, control data, and projectdocumentation). Unlike operative WBS’s, standard WBS’s do not have user statuses.

n It is QRW possible to plan operative data with standard WBS’s. For example, you cannot use a standardWBS for cost planning or time scheduling purposes.

n The sales department obtains its central control keys from three different sources: the material master(which item is purchased?), customer master (which customer is buying/what conditions have beendefined for this customer?) and the SD document (what kind of contract applies, which sales area isresponsible?).

n A default item category is proposed when the order is entered in the system, but users can change itas required (possible item categories are defined in Customizing).

n In the material master, the admissible planning strategies are assigned to the material (based on theplanning strategy group). This assignment is needed to find the correct requirements type inindependent requirements management and sales order management.

n The default requirements type is determined by the main strategy of the planning strategy group.You can define substrategies (and, consequently, alternative requirements types) manually in thesales order.

n The individual requirements types are assigned to requirements classes.

n The requirements class controls the transfer of requirements between SD and PP, the relevance toMRP, the availability check in SD, and other procedures.

n If the planning strategy group is missing in the material master, the system looks for therequirements type for the sales order by using the item category group (sales view in the materialmaster) and the MRP type. This method can be used explicitly for special sales orders.

n As of R/3 Release 4.0, you can enter quantities greater than one in the sales order for assemblyprocessing with networks. All activities for which an execution factor has been defined aremultiplied by the factor in question. In the case of activity elements, the execution factor of thehigher-level activity applies.

n In the network activity or activity element, the following planned data is multiplied(in accordance with the execution factor and the quantity in the sales order item):

é Duration

é Work

é Costs

é Material

n If the quantities in the sales order item change, the network is adjusted accordingly.

n Assembly processing can be expanded to include several sales document items. An individualnetwork will be assigned to each item in this case. The individual networks are assigned to a workbreakdown structure. This means that the standard networks used must have assignments to the samestandard WBS.

n The individual networks can be scheduled from the sales order. If the networks are connected bycross-network relationships, you will be able to schedule the entire overall network.

n The finish date of a network is proposed as the confirmed delivery date.

First, you can define detail screens within the application - in this case,the screens are user-specific. Second, you can define detail screens in PS Customizing - in this case,the screens are generally applicable.

n You can define detail screens of your own in Customizing - these are then included in the tab pages.

n Validation is a means of checking input that is not available in the standard R/3 system. For example,you can check if the ELOOLQJ�HOHPHQW indicator is set at the first level of the hierarchy when the projectis of the project type "&XVWRPHU�SURMHFW".

n If validation detects that a statement is incorrect, the system can react in different ways: a warning,an error message or an information message can be issued.

n Substitution involves writing specific values to master data fields of a WBS (or network) if aprerequisite is met. For example, if the person responsible for the project is Ms Morris, then costcenter 4290 is substituted (i.e. written to the appropriate field).

n In Customizing for PS, you can define default values for validation and substitution in the projectprofile (or network profile). You can use a special indicator to specify whether a validation orsubstitution should be carried out when the WBS is saved. In this way, you can prevent incorrectWBSs being saved. You also define rules for validation and substitution in PS Customizing.

n You can use a validation to check several values at the same time. You can use a substitution to setseveral values at the same time. Substitution is also suitable for mass changes. You can also set upuser exits for substitution.

n You can use the mass change function to make cross-project changes to fields pertaining to projectdefinitions, WBS elements, networks, activities, activity elements, milestones and relationships.

n You can test the extent of your changes before you actually make a mass change.

n The same authorization objects as for individual changes are used for mass changes.

n Remember that, if you make a mass change, this might mean that a large number of objects will bechanged simultaneously.In many cases, you cannot undo the changes made. For this reason, always be particularly carefulwhen you use this transaction.

n You can make a mass change directly. In this case, you select the fields to be changed, and you definenew values without knowing what the old values were.

n If you go to make a mass change in the table view, you have the option of displaying the original values.

n A log of changes is output for every mass change. You can save this log, and analyze it later.

n The table form for mass changes has several advantages compared to the simple transaction:

é The old values of object fields can be displayed (for instance, the field "Responsible person" of theobject "WBS element".

é Only the selected objects are changed

é You can select objects using conditions (for instance, select all WBS element with company code1000 or 2000).

n The EPS 4.0 interface is based on SAP BAPI technology. R/3 is broken down into Business Objects,which are structured according to business criteria. Business objects in the Project System are:3URMHFW'HILQLWLRQ��:RUN%UHDNGRZQ6WUXFW�and�1HWZRUN. These business objects can be processed bythe BAPIs of the EPS 4.0 interface. For example, you can use the BAPI PDLQWDLQ to process a WBS,and the BAPI JHWLQIR�to read activity or WBS data.

n You can find a description of the EPS 4.0 interface in SAPnet - after logging on, use the alias PS(see also Online Service System (OSS) note 144 467). You can also download the current version ofOpen PS for Microsoft Project from here. Enter the following URL in your browser:http://service.sap.com/ps. If this doesn’t work, see the Online Service System note above.

n You can use configuration in the Project System if you wish to produce a complex product which hasdifferent variants. The networks and work breakdown structures are basically identical for thedifferent variants, but they have specific characteristic values, might have alternative or additionalactivities, have different quantities (of material components, labor, or duration), or differentproduction resources/tools.

n If you want to use configuration, you must use configurable standard networks. The only configurableobject in the Project System is the standard network. Materials and maintenance plans are configurableelsewhere in the R/3 System.

n When using configuration, you usually start out from a standard superstructure. In other words, thestandard network and standard WBS contain all objects that might be needed for any product variant:that is, all activities, all activity elements and all materials.

n WBS’s are configured indirectly: the activities of configurable standard networks are assigned to theelements of a standard WBS. If you create and configure a network (by copying from a standardnetwork), only elements of the standard WBS that are assigned to the activities selected in theconfiguration, or elements that are hierarchically above such WBS elements can be copied into anoperative WBS.Example: Activity 1000 is selected in the configuration, and assigned to a level-2 WBS element(A1000). The work breakdown structure now contains this element (A1000) and also its higher-levelelement from level 1 of the hierarchy.

n You use characteristics and characteristic values to specify the details and attributes of differentvariants. In standard structures, object dependencies refer to the characteristics and their values.This determines which activities and activity elements are copied to the operative structure for a certainvariant. Once you have entered the necessary data for the network header, you go automatically to thetransaction for assigning characteristic values (i.e. configuration).

n Object dependencies for the objects selectable in configuration (activities, activity elements, workcenters, material components) are defined in the standard network. Object dependencies for thecomponents or BOM items assigned to the activities are defined in the bill of material (for aconfigurable material) used.

n Archiving/deletion is usually processed from the general archiving menu. However, you can alsoarchive or delete operative PS data from the "Basic data" area menu.

n Archiving/deletion can be run in the background. If, for example, you set a deletion flag in thebackground for several projects, the deletion flag will be set for all objects that meet the prerequisites.,PSRUWDQW: In releases prior to Release 4.5, the deletion flag was not set for any of the projects if theprerequisites were not met in only one project.

n You can also set and remove deletion flags for WBS’s and networks manually.

n Deletion indicators can only be set in the background. Once set, they cannot be undone.

n Residence times are set only for networks. They are defined in the network type.

In the following exercises, you will work through the steps required forarchiving a project. At the same time, you will delete your project(E-99##) and all its activities from the database.

1-1 In the Project Builder set a deletion flag for all objects in your project E-99##.

6$3�PHQX/RJLVWLFV�→�3URMHFW�6\VWHP�→�3URMHFW�→�3URMHFW�%XLOGHU�6HOHFW�3URMHFW�%XLOGHU�E\�GRXEOH�FOLFNLQJ�1-1-1 Open project E-99## from the worklist, and set the deletion flag for the

project definition. Save your project.

The deletion flag is passed down automatically within the hierarchyof the work breakdown structure. This means that, if you define adeletion flag for the project definition, it will be passed on to allWBS elements, and from there, to the assigned activities. Of course,you can also use the archiving tool to create the deletion flag. Usethis option if you want to process a large number of projectstructures.

n Re. 1): In assembly processing, you can generate a (header-assigned) network without a projectwhen you create a sales order. In this case, the sales document item is a cost object in its own right.

n Re. 2): In assembly processing, you can generate a network when you create a sales order. When yousave, a work breakdown structure is created, and the sales document item is assigned to a WBSelement in the work breakdown structure. In this case, the sales order represents the sales view, theproject is the controlling instrument, and the network represents logistical processing. Alternatively,you can create work breakdown structures and networks, and assign the sales document itemmanually.

n Re. 3): You can assign a sales document item to a WBS element in a project. Controlling is carriedout for the project. You can assign orders or documents to the project.

n Re. 4): You can use assembly processing or MRP planning to create a production order, and thenassign the sales document item to a WBS element in the project. You then assign the productionorder manually to a WBS element in the project.

n The sales document item must be controlled by an account assignment category with a special stockindicator (��4�or EODQN� For example 1 above, the best choice would be account assignment category(� in case 2, the best choice would be 4�or ',�in cases 3 and 4, account assignment category *would also be possible.�

n CEP is short for &ROODERUDWLYH�(QJLQHHULQJ�DQG�3URMHFW�0DQDJHPHQW.n The aim of CEP is to ensure the efficient transfer of information and knowledge between a project

manager in your company and external partners when all are working on a mutual project task.

n There are two different CEP scenarios:

é Competition ScenarioAs part of a bid invitation, for example, every participant modifies the same processing objectsand thus competes with the other participants for an order. During the entire process, none of theparticipants can view the information submitted by the others.

é Cooperation ScenarioAll participants are involved in the transfer of knowledge, and are notified automatically of changes.

n The relevant objects pertaining to a project task are put into a folder in the R/3 system by the initiator.

n The initiator creates a separate recipient list for each folder so that the participants can be notified bye-mail - this means that it is also possible to send comments and other texts. The Internet link definedin Customizing is automatically written to the e-mail - this is the link that enables externalparticipants to log on to the R/3 Internet server.

n Once a participant has logged on via the Internet link, a list appears showing all of the folders that heor she has to process. The participant selects an entire folder, or individual objects in a folder, anddownloads these to his or her PC. It is always possible to download further objects at any time.

n The participant can log off from the Internet server, and process the downloaded objects offline.

n If the participant wishes to send back changed objects to the initiator, he or she simply logs on to theR/3 Internet server again. When objects are sent back, a so-called "successor folder" is created - thisis assigned to the corresponding original folder.

n Before transferring data, the initiator can compare a participant’s successor folders with the originaldata structure in the R/3 system. The objects that are to be transferred to the R/3 system are thenselected in the results overview of the comparison, checked, and transferred to the original structure.This data transfer is documented in a log file.
