Resequencing of meters (street route sequence) from Itrons back into SAP

$

Hello Experts,

I need help in developing the resequencing program for the Itron upload. We use FTP (a file is sent and received) for Itron read downloads & uploads. Our client resequences their meters very often. The Itron upload file comes back with the resequence flag set 'Y' in position no.52 of the RHD record. Also, in the MTR record of the Itron upload file, we get back the 'Original meter read sequence (sent in the download file)' - position 62-69 and the 'New Read Sequence (position 70-77).

 

I need help coding the above requirement into the program. Right now I am thinking like., If the sequence flag is set to Y in the RHD record, capture the new sequence in a z-table which contains the MRU, Device number, date, old sequence and new sequence. Then after the upload program runs, create a z-program to adjust the sequence in the table ELWEG (street route).

 

Any help and suggestions are highly appreciated.

SAP IS-U Load Settlement training and project implementation

$
0
0

I am on an IS-U Load Settlement project and responsible for data migration.   I wonder if there is any training specific to Load Settlement?

 

It's a deregulated generation market but regulated distribution.


Per government definition:

Load Settlement, ...., means the process of determining the hourly consumption of electric energy of each customer in Alberta and providing that information to the Independent System Operator, retailers and regulated rate providers in order to identify responsibility for purchases of electric energy exchanged through the power pool.


Also this project has a parallel run before go-live.   If the parallel-run environment is set up as identical to the production environment, what kind of endeavor is this? Considering the interfaces and migration efforts, I think the parallel run is going to be a go-live simulation, with at least the same amount of go-live effort.  But I am not sure about the technical setup.


Thanks guys.



Meter reading not visible in EL31

Hi Experts,

 

We have a situation where the meter reading is not seen on installation and EL31.

 

There are 4 registers out of which only register 2 is billable.

After it is billed , there are changes done on other 3 registers' meter readings.

 

The meter reading date is changed to 00.00.0000 in EL29. Also the meter reading status is changed to '0'.

 

After these changes , we do not see meter reading for register 2 in EL31 and on installation.

 

However we could not replicate the same on quality.

 

Is it possible to change the meter reading date to 00.00.0000 and meter reading status to 0 in EL29? How can it be done ?

 

Thanks,

Nachiket

But we have maintain the grouping rule for business partner also in spro.

 

Please suggest, so that we can provide the solution to our clients.

FQ events to change Payment file name for Payment Medium

$

Hi,

 

I have observed that we can give only static payment file name along with file path in the variant for Payment Medium program (SAPFKPY3). When Payment file is generated, post payment run (FPY1), the static payment file name is appended with a 3 digit counter,like FILE001, FILE002 etc. and saved into the file path.

 

Whether there is any FQ event where we can write a logic to have dynamic file name or  dynamic parts to be appended with the static file name. Also how to stop the counter being appended with the file name.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Collection Item field (INKPS) in DFKKOP table

$

Hi Experts,

 

I need some information on Collection Item Field (INKPS) in DFKKOP table.

 

1. What is the significance of this field?

2. This field is common between DFKKOP table and DFKKCOLLH table, So can we expect in both the tables data should be same in this field for a particular OPBEL.

 

Currently the issue we are facing is INKPS is always populated in DFKKCOLLH table, but for the corresponding OPBEL in DFKKOP table the INKPS field is blank.

 

Any idea what could be the reason?

 

An early response will be of great help

 

Thanks

Purpose of table TIBAN

Hi Experts,

 

According to what I think TIBAN table was only used for the migration to SEPA and  suspect it is now used by SAP as a kind of archive, to register false mandates or something like that. In the last 3 months, only 3 new records were added to this list.

 

 

Can you confirm if above conslusions are correct? If not correct, what the purpose is of this table?

 

Thanks in Advance. Looking forward to relevant replies.

SAP ISU Certification - C_FSUTIL_60 SAP Certified Associate - Utilities with SAP ERP 6.0

$

Hi All,

 

In this post I just want to share my experience passing the SAP certification exam C_FSUTIL_60 SAP Certified Associate - Utilities with SAP ERP 6.0.

 

As most of the SAP certification exams, this one consists of 80 questions from the following area (number of questions are aproximative as are cited from memory):

Configure basic functions - 9 questions

Create master data - 9 questions

Validate integration - 8 questions

FI-CA Post Items - 9 questions

FI-CA Manage payments - 8 questions

Customer Service - 9 questions

Device Management- manage devices - 5 questions

Device Management-Process meter reading - 9 questions

Billing and Invoicing - 14 questions

 

There are questions with 1 answer and questions with multiple answers (the number of correct answers is specified). Questions with one answer have usually 4 answers to choose from and the ones with multiple answers have 5 answers to choose from.

The passing score is 53%, meaning you need to answer correctly to 43 questions.

My weak area is FICA but I scored 88% for FICA- Post Items but only 37% for FICA-Manage payments.

The certification can be done online. I took the exam at an authorized PearsonVue center, more details here:www.pearsonvue.com. The cost is 500 USD or 300 EUR.

 

Some sample questions:

1) About installation facts - one factor operand has value 1 at the installation facts starting from 1 sept 2012,  value 2 at the rate category facts level starting from 1st June 2012 and value 3 at rate facts starting from 1st July.

Q: What value is taking into account by billing engine for billing period 1.06.2012 to 30.06.2012

 

2) EASIBI transaction is execute successively but the are no posting to FICA. When can this happen? (2 answers are correct)

a) the print document is outsorted

b) the meter reading is implausible

c) the processing option was set to billing

 

3) Other question was about EL31 - Monitoring meter readings: for which master data you can see meter reading result with the following options:

a) Contract account

b) Contract

c) Premise

d) Tehnical installation

 

4) There was another question regarding register relation ships. The question had a picture where 3 devices where linked (dev 2 to dev 1 and dev 3 to dev 1) and there was the description of how this construct is behaving (the dev2 consumption is deducted from dev1 consumption) and the question was what kind of relationship is defined betweek the dev1 and dev2 and it had a few options, one of them was the serial switching.

 

 

There were some tricky questions I don't remember :), specially in the FI-CA :).

Other sample questions are here:

If anyone else has passed the certification exam, please feel free to share you experience in this post.

Mercedes gives EV batteries second life with storage project

A consortium led by automobile manufacturer Mercedes-Benz will set up a grid storage facility in Germany that will utilise used automotive batteries for home and industrial energy storage applications.

 

The project is based on the premise that when EV and plug-in vehicle batteries reach the end of their working life for automotive applications (no longer reliable to start a car), the battery still has up to 80% of its original storage capacity remaining.


The project is expected to be the “world’s largest grid storage facility using used batteries,” and will have the capacity to store 13MW of power, which will be enough to provide electricity to 130, 000 homes.

 

The batteries will also be connected to incorporate wind and solar power (...) Read on >

SAP IS-U training without the context of CRM

I am working at a client with SAP IS-U but no integration with SAP CRM.  Instead they are using MS Dynamics CRM with some real-time integration using BizTalk and/or BAPI calls. 

 

I wanted to get some fundamental training in IS-U master data and processes, without having to learn CRM.  I looked on SAP website and it says I should start with iut110,  but it has the CRM element in it.

Can someone recommend IS-U training without the CRM element?  Thanks.
