Project Functionality of - SAP-PS (Project System)

The Project System module of SAP (PS) is specifically designed to provide comprehensive andfully integrated project management functionality for SAP customers. When it was originally designedand 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 objectssimilar to cost centers in CO, while networks have scheduling and resource managementcapabilitiesthat are very similar to PP. Whenever you need flexibility and frequent user interaction for resourceloaded scheduling activities, you still feel the remnants of an architecture and user interface that wasoriginally designed for the more static context of PP.

Shortcomings include user-friendliness since SAP did not manage to satisfactorily put the end userin control to easily manipulate the data. In that respect, SAP's unsurpassed enterprise functionalityoften is perceived as an issue by end-users. Also, and somewhat ironically, PS and PP are notseamlessly integrated. This means that costs or dates do not roll up or cannot be pushed downbetween 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


2/177

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 whatthe 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 operativeversion, 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 operationalproject (I don't think). You can however, copy one plan version to the other.

4. Progress Versions- These versions are used for carrying outEarned 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


3/177

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 PSBasics 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 SAP's 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 homewith 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 haveto 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?


45/177

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 determinesdates"

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?


52/177

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

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.


54/177

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.

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 newtotal 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"??


55/177

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 ?


56/177

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.


57/177

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.


58/177

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)


59/177

- 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


60/177

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

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 Z-

transaction 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 ishappening?

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.


63/177

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
