Balancing issue in POSDM

$

0

Hi Aram,

There is a requirement for count/value check in POSDM when the balancing issue occurs.

 

If the line items of a tender type is small, this could be done by manual check but is difficult for a tender type with large number of line items.

 

As per findings this can be achieved by the FM -/POSDW/SEARCH_TLOG. But this isn't in compatible extract manner to collect the output. It would be helpful if this can be developed as a report/table extract.

 

Please suggest if there are other options as the table /POSDW/TLOGS too has the transaction data which is merged.

 

Thanks and Regards,

Hi All,

 

I need some help regarding consignment return in retail using inter-company vendor.

I'm using item category NKN for fill-up and NKR for pick-up with movement type 635 & 636.

The fill up process goes well, we can create the DO fill up using inter-company PO in VL10D.

But when i try to do return from store to inter-company DC the shipping tabulation in the PO is missing. So i can't generate the DO pick-up because of that.

 

Best Regards,

Kindly let me know how can I configure this scenario .

Brand to Fan - What Retailers can learn from top sports experiences to turn customers into hyper-loyal fans

On Sunday January 11 Pat Bakey, Global General Manager Consumer Industries of SAP has opened the 104th Annual Retail Convention and Expo in the Jacobs Javits Center in New York with the session Game Changers - Loyalty and Performance from Passionate Sports Fandom on what makes Top Sports franchises and world class retailers successful.

 

Here is a summary of the key points:

IMG_2155[1].JPG


Here is a summary of the key points:


Start with a look at how Retail is changing:

  • Retailers are moving further away from consumer relationships defined only by transactions to continuous relationships defined by experiences.
  • Retailers are moving from broadcasting their messages to listening to each customer’s message and entering into an open and ongoing dialogue and connection with the consumers.

It is this connection with the consumer, we’ll come to think of him as your ultimate fan, which can drive your business to new heights.


The word fanatic describes someone with obsessive interest in and enthusiasm for something. Fanatics are probably nowhere more evident than in the world of sports – The ultimate fan – LIVES THE BRAND – not just at the game, but each fan embodies the brand before, during, and after the game.  In the case of football, for the whole week, the whole season, the playoffs, throughout the draft, and into summer camp and pre-season – the whole year!


Sports has moved beyond defining the fan experience as a Sunday at the stadium, an 82 game season, a World Cup every 4 years.  It is an always on, always engaged experience. Retailing is the same --- it is not about a shopping trip to the store or a browsing adventure on line.  It is about a continuous and immersive relationship with the retail brand.


Technology and the social sphere have redefined and enhanced the engagement. The ability to be connected to your team anywhere at any time has created a generation of hyper-fans who challenge sportscasters if they are off even a percentage point on a stat. The brand is now experienced in a very personal way by each fan – and the brand must be meaningful in every interaction; and those interactions are dictated by the fan. What we see happing in Sports is that technology is both changing the fan experience and the way the game is played.


Big Data and incredible advances in processing speeds from in-memory technology have delivered new performance insights to coaches, players, and even fans, let's just look at a few examples:

  • Sophisticated scouting reports are now augmented by in the moment player feedback. 
  • During the Soccer World Cup, the German team took advantage of those advancements. It was the players that received the information and were empowered to improve their performance.
  • In Women’s tennis coaches are out there providing in the moment coaching to players based on real-time data during the game.


Now the links between sports and retailing are surprisingly easy to make - the retail store is like the traditional stadium. You run plays with your staff to beat the competition. The Retail staff needs to react and respond in the moment to customer and competitive pressures to deliver the best outcomes and experiences. This is what can turn a shopper into a life-long fan.


But now the store is extended by your kiosks, your call center, your website and apps. Shopping is no longer a transaction or event; it is an experience available to your fans 24 x7. Successful Retailers know that it is not just about a shopping trip to the store or a browsing adventure on line.  It is about a continuous and immersive relationship with the retail brand. And your brand is experienced in person, on TV and cable, through social channels, on devices big and small and soon through wearable technology.


The consumer is in charge and is completely redefining the brand experience, and it is all about the experience -- your brand is active and alive wherever and whenever your fans engage. Winning in retail is all about connecting your brand with your customer and having everyone on your team committed – your fans already are!


The best companies will see the opportunity, leverage information technology, empower employees, connect with customers - all in real time – that is the nature of the business.

VPRS from INFOREC and not from MBEW-VERPR

Hi,

 

During POS sales update in ECC 6.0, the VPRS (cost) was taken from MAP value in Table MBEW.

This is not the same as the agreed PP price as stored in Purchase info record.

How can I configure the sales pricing procedure to seek VPRS from PIR instead of MBEW?

 

Thanks

[POSDM] Credit card number masking

Hi Experts

 

We have a requirement to mask the credit card number on display (i.e. POS workbench) BUT show full card number on data level for BW data processing.

I am able to mask the card number on display through the config below:

Cross Application Component --> Payment Cards --> Make Security Settings for Payment Cards. (Masked Display and Encrypted When Saved)

 

Appreciate if you can kindly guide me to the setting for allowing to show the full card number on data level.

 

Moreover, I have searched in the note here that Installation of the encryption library "SAPCRYPTOLIB" is needed. Is it true?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi All

 

Question 1 We are activating MRP for first time , Please confirm if below are configurations or front End transactions that need to be done or any more

 

1.Activate RP flag in site master

2.MRP site parameters -OPPQ

 

Do we need to do any more configurations , How about Planning file entry's

 

 

 

Question 2 - We are uploading PIRS for finished goods , Planned orders are created and Purchase requisition's are created for BOM components

Requirement is we don't want any planned order for Finished goods as we are not going to convert planned orders to PR's , we are using this only to have dependent requirements

 

Is the solution of using Special procurement key 50 for finished goods OK, so planned orders are not created but dependent demand are created, we will do MD74 to re organize PIR .

 

Please suggest

 

Thanks

Dear Gurus

 

Just like the Movement Type 309 is used to transfer the stocks of a particular article to Another Article, Is there a Movement Type for transferring the Consignment stock from one article to the other?

As I see, in MB1B there is no Movement Type 309K.

How should I go about this. Kindly suggest.

Need advice on sending data from POSDM to ERP

$

Hi!
I need advice on methodology of using POSDM.
I have the following scenario:

 

1. During the cash session every POS system sends detail checks to POSDM one-by-one.
Checks should be loaded in BW (cubes, reports) immediately.
There is no any problem in that task.
For loading checks from PI to POSDM i'm going to use IDOC /POSDW/POSTR_CREATEMULTIPLE01.

 

2. In the end of session POS system sends Z-report with total amount, type of payments etc. There can be several session and several Z-reports on every POS during one day. Of course, we have an unique session number.
And at the moment of Z-report coming I have to do in POSDM several tasks:
A) To collect and to aggregate all detail checks for that POS and that POS session.
B) To check if total amount of detail checks is equal to total amount of Z-report.
C) To send to ERP IDOC WPUUMS with aggergated checks only for that session
D) To send to ERP IDOC WPUTAB with payments only for that session.

 

The way of implementing step 2 is not clear for me. The questions are:

1. What is the best way for sending Z-report to POSDM? Should we send IDOC WPUTAB from PI to POSDM? Or something else?
2. Should I use two-steps processiing in POSDM in such situation?
3. How to trigger tasks of step 2 (agregate and send to ERP checks from that POS session)?

What should I setup in POSDM for it automatically start these tasks in the moment of coming Z-report?
4. Where should I realize the logic of filtering checks only from current shop and current POS session?

Any advice are welcome, thanks.

POSDM - Tax at header with apportioning enabled, incorrect postings

$
0
0

Hi Experts,

 

My Client has implemented SAP POSDM. In the current design, we bring taxes at the header level. So if a transaction has both sales and returns, the tax is apportioned among sales and returns line items.

 

In ECC tax is always positive and is positive for sales and negative for returns. Hence postings are incorrect.

 

When a transaction containing a sale and return is processed, the tax is apportioned between the two line items. A real example is a transaction below

 

Sale = +189.99$

Return = -99.99

Tax = +12.06

 

When the transaction is processed and aggregated,

 

WPUUMS is generated as

 

Sale +189.99 Tax 7.91

Return -99.99 Tax -4.15

 

So this is the problem where the net tax posted is 3.76 and not 12.06. POSDM is apportioning the tax among the line items because Tax is sent at Header and not line item level.


Thanks


A Recap of #NRF15: Complex Retail Trends, One Simple Question

$
0
0

It’s only January, but industry insiders are already buzzing about the latest innovations coming out of CES and, most recently, NRF’s BIG Show 2015 in New York City. If you followed these events, like us, your mind is probably reeling with the endless possibilities for the future of retail and technology.

 

With so many emerging trends, one can easily be overwhelmed by the rapidly changing landscape and the implications for businesses and their customers. To help make sense of it all, we’ve put together this infographic capturing the leading topics in social media at NRF this year.

 

SAP Graphic - Twitter 1.jpg

Following is a recap of the top three breakout trends that had event attendees talking most:

  • Investment in Mobility(22% of #NRF15 social conversation): Within this trend, most conversation centered on the shift from fixed to mobile Point
    of Sale (POS).  With the rise of connected consumers, companies need to be equally connected to deliver the most streamlined, personalized path to
    purchase.  Among the brands doing it right is Ulta Beauty, whose new mobile app engages both employees and consumers for a highly customized shopping experience.

 

  • Retail Technology Solutions (19% of #NRF15 social conversation): The most popular topics in this category were RFID and beacon technology.  While they are transforming customer interactions, they are also creating a wealth of new data that can shape future retail strategies.

 

  • Global E-Commerce (15% of #NRF social conversation): As companies seek to grow their retail footprint, the need for a global e-commerce framework arose as a top concern. Specifically, the capacity to collaborate with the right local partners, and tailor content across multiple markets.

 

While leading topics of conversation at #NRF15, these trends have in fact been gaining momentum for the past few years.  What has changed is the willingness of retailers to invest in the systems that harmonize the various channels for customer engagement.

 

Across all trends that surfaced at the BIG Show, one point was abundantly clear: the ability to meet the needs of today’s empowered customer – mobile, global, and multichannel – can make or break a business.  The companies poised to succeed are those that run simple by offering integrated experiences at all touch points based on a complete view of each customer. In other words, to rethink operations and reimagine the customer experience by removing the complexities which hinder a business.

 

So… are you ready to Run Simple?
