Project role definition not possible

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

has anyone an idea to really enable the ressource management of a new installed cprojects 4.5 system (without WFM-Server)? I did use the ressource management in cprojects last year at a cp 4.0 installation but this time it doesn't work at all.

We have two unsolved questions which should belong together:

I. Two errors when you start cProjects: "Communication with the WFM Core system is not possible" and "WFD not yet converted". But the WFM-/WFD-Server is not intended to be used. There should be no messages (see customizing).

II. The complete area of ressource management in cProjects is empty and gray - no possibility to define any new project role and there is no predefined project role. It is possible to define project structures using different project types.

The system: cProjects 4.5, latest SP and IDES SAP ECC 6.0

Used roles / profiles: SAP_CPR_PROJECT_ADMINISTRATOR / SAP_All

Customizing concerning project roles / WFD:

1. Resource Management > Workforce Deployment Server > Dispatcher Settings > Switch between liveCache and BuiltIn-Dispatcher:

active built in dispatcher defined in dispatcher settings (not the liveCache option).

2. Resource Management > Basic Settings for Project Roles > Define Project Role Types:

no use of WFD-Server in the defined project role types.

3. Resource Management > Qualification Management > Active Qualification Search...:

no User Qualification Comparison of WFM Core (Value abbr. empty).

Hopefully someone can help me with ideas, solutions or documents.

Thanks,

Hi

Check this note:  1039443 

Also there are few authorization for WFM which you are not using but if your Basis activates then add S_RFC

You can check the authorizations in SAP_CPR_USER

These were not there for 3.1

Hi,

thank you for the quick reply. This note was given for cProjects 4.0 and was not relevant.

Thanks,

Just for info:

We just found the answer in another notification - running an xpra was needed:

... From my observation based on the above descriptions, you have upgraded

WFM Core from 110 to 200. But you have not run the xpra: /SAPAPO/WFD_

XPRA_20 after upgrade. WFD server cannot be used untill xpra: /SAPAPO

/WFD_XPRA_20 is run.

We disabled WFM Core on our cProjects 4.5 using this steps:

1. Enhancement spot CPRO_WFM

a) Use transaction SE18 to create the enhancement spot CPRO_WFM with the short description "cProjects: WFM Integration" in the package PRP_WFM.

b) Create the BAdI DPR_WFM with the short description "cProjects: WFM Integration"

c) Select the specification "Reusing Instantiation" as the instance creation method and expand the node DPR_WFM in the tree on the left.

d) Double-click "Interface", enter the interface IF_EX_DPR_WFM on the detail screen on the right, choose "Change interface", confirm the dialog box with "yes" and create the interface in the package PRP_WFM.

e) Save the enhancement spot.

f) In the interface, enter the public method IS_WFM_CORE_ACTIVE with the description "Is the WFM core active?" and add the following parameters:

Parameter RV_NOT_ACTIVE

Type Returning

Pass value X

Optional

Typing Method Type

Associated TypeXFELD

Default value

Description "WFM core is not active ('X' = yes, ' ' = no)"

g) Activate the interface and the enhancement spot.

2. Implement the attached correction instructions and activate all relevant program objects.

3. Use transaction SE19 to implement the enhancement spot CPRO_WFM.

Hope it will be usefull.
