Easy Cost Planning - Execution Services

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am fairly new to Easy cost planning but I cannot get the "Execution Services" button to appear when accessing Easy Cost Planning via CJ20N.

I have defined Execution Profile, Execution Service and assign to Project Profiles.  Is there anything I might be missing?

Thank you;

Werner

Dear Werner,

Please also check if ECC Extension EA-PLM is actived in your system.

And please refer to the following information if you are doing Easy cost planning in multiple CO versions.

1) You have to maintain different CO versions.
   Customizing path:
   Project System
   -> Costs
      -> Planned Costs
         -> Easy Cost Planning and execution Services
            -> Easy Cost Planning
               -> Define Alternative CO Versions

2) You have to activate multiple CO versions for ECP.
   Customizing path:
   Project System
   -> Costs
      -> Planned Costs
         -> Easy Cost Planning and execution Services
            -> Easy Cost Planning
               -> Activate Multiple CO Versions

Below online documentation is regarding Easy Cost Planning in Multiple CO Versions.

Hi Edna,

Thanks for the reply.  I have done steps 1 and 2 for multiple CO versions already.  Can you maybe provide more information on how to see if ECC Extension EA-PLM is activated?

Thanks;

Dear Werner,

Please try to check in SFW5 or goto SPRO->Activate Business Functions to see if the extension EA-PLM has been activated.

Hi Edna,

I can confirm that the Extension EA-PLM is active.

Any other possible checks?

Is your planning profile attached on the Project ? Check Control data tab.

Hi Ankush,

Yes, plan profile is linked to project profile thus defaults on the Control tab.

Any other suggestions?

I find it a bit inconsistent as the Execution services button comes and goes every time i make some changes in the data on the control tab for example: if i change the value for  Plan meth/Forecast, and then go into the ECP screen, Execution services buttom diasppears but then i go out of the project and it somes back again. Worth a try.

thanks

Are you getting Message no. KPN083 ?? or any other when you click on ECP in cj20n.

Hi Sanjeev,

Not getting any message.  ECP screen opens up fine but no Execution Services button.

[sanjeevc]

In your case you need to define CO version for ECP other then regular CO version.

If you processed multiple CO versions with Easy Cost Planning before the activation, you cannot change the leading CO version

you have to activate multiple CO version.
