RPM_FICO_DATA_TRANSFER program unavailable in PPM 5.0 system

[Former Member]

I am unable to find program RPM_FICO_DATA_TRANSFER in the PPM 5.0 system.

Neither is the RPM_FIN02 (older version) available in the system.

Other PPM 5.0 programs like - /RPM/FICO_INT_PLANNING ara availabe.

Any suggestions for next steps?

Hi,

Could you tell us, where are you searching / executing these transactions since i am able to execute these transactions in our PPM 5.0 system.

And also updates us on PPM 5.0 Support package you are using.

I am looking in se38 for RPM_FICO_DATA_TRANSFER.

My current Support Package for PPM 5.0 is 6.

Interestingly, I find information about /RPM/FICO_INT_PLANNING program also includes 'FICO Integration' along with 'Planning' and 'Rollup'. Does it suggest we can use his program to bring data from FICO/PS to RPM_FIDATA table in PPM and also eventually to Financial/Capacity Planning in PPM?

Also, any suggestions on next steps on how to find the RPM_FICO_DATA_TRANSFER program missing in the system?

Did you check the PPM system or the ECC system?

We have them on 2 different servers and this one only exists on the ECC system.... not on the PPM side...

Got that!

I was confused when I read information about  program /RPM/FICO_INT_PLANNING in the PPM 5.0 system which is same as RPM_FICO_DATA_TRANSFER in ECC system.

Do you know use of /RPM/FICO_INT_PLANNING program in PPM 5.0 system for the "Integration" option on selection screen. I have a feeling it could be used in place of RPM_FICO_DATA_TRANSFER if PPM and FICO/PS are on same server.

Any thoughts?

Hi

See the 2 screenshots below which was sent to me from mr. P Kumar of SAP a while back:

1. Push mechanism via RPM_FICO_DATA_Transfer

2. "Pull"mechanism via /RPM/FICO_INT_PLANNING

From the above you will see that the first program "pushes"data from ERP side, and the second "pulls"data from PPM. Yes, you can therefore use either of these programs.
