Period-wise planning in CJ40

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I have a requirement as mentioned below. Tried to goolge for the solution, but was unfortunately not successfull.

I would appreciate if someone can give some inputs on the below.

We are developing a customised 'excel upload' tool for uploading plan values.

The planning is against WBS elements (only) and for a year and for the particlur period/month.

Now i am trying to choose a transaction, which would help my abaper to write his BDC/code for the upload tool.

In CJ40 , I am not able to plan period wise , without entering a cost element. Do we have any way to plan this?

In CjR2, i am not able to create a planning layout without entering a cost element/activty types etc.

So i am not finding a single transcation , which would allow my planning against wbs , for year , for period.

Requesting your valuable inputs over this.

Thanks in advance

Hi

I suggest that you plan the cost taking a dummy cost element which you use to satisfy the system..

That cost element can be filtered out/exempted when running any cost element-specific report.

Hello B P singh,

Thanks for your reply.

But what exactly you mean by dummy cost element.

What is the cost element category i need to use to create this?

Are there any other implications of using this.?

please let me know

Thanks and regards

Check out the WIKI space on this site and check out the topics posted under PS. You will find a link for Excel based cost planning that is posted by Sreenivas Kadiam. That should help you.
