Planning book - User assign

[Former Member]

Hello,

We have to group multiple products in to one profile... So that the user can generate forecast and their results in a single group.

How it is possible in DP ? .. How we can assign user to a particular planning book only ? .. Any suggestion will be highly appreciated

Thanks

Nic

Hi Nick,

Please see below details which will help you achieve authorization in Pbook at Master Data selected.

Planning Book Selection BAdi /SAPAPO/SDP_SELECTOR is used for coding the authorization check against any navigational attiribute. The code can check Z: COMPCODE authorization Object in the User Role profile of the user and the value of navigational attiribute maintained in it. For all materials being loaded in Selection Id, It validates the navigational attiribute as maintained for Characteristic info object against that navigational attribute maintained in the role authorization. Material belonging to different company/dept code/codes other than what the user is authorized to are filtered out from the Selection List. If the material is not maintained in that info object, then it is not filtered.

This check can be done for all three planning books, DP GATP & SNP.

Impact: A user can only view/load materials belonging to his own company or dept. in the Planning Book.

You may need to discuss this with your ABAP er to look into BAdi and analyse further

Thanks

Dear Nick

As mentioned correctly you can make the different selection fort he group of products and assgin the different forecasting model with T-code /SAPAPO/MSDP_FCST2 - Assign Forecast Profiles to a Selection.

With help of APO authorization, you can also give the different access to different persons.

Hi Nick,

We can create the selection id for the list of product location combination and assign that selection-id to the forecast profile.

For assigning the planning book to the particular user:

txn:/sapapo/sdpplbk (Assign user to planning book)

here you need to mention user name, planningbook & data view.
