Hi Ganesh

Please follow below stepwise process -

1. Create alert type using SPRO or else use

Use Transaction : /SAPAPO/ATYPES_SDP - Maintenance of Dynamic/Database DP/SNP Alerts

2. Create macro - write the necessary logic so that alert can be generated using this macro.  Please thoroughly test the macro logic.  Make sure exception condition is correctly defined in the macro.

Use Transaction : /SAPAPO/ADVM - Macro Workbench

3. Create activity - add above alert macro into this activity.

Use Transaction : /SAPAPO/MC8T - Activity

4. Create DP Job - include above activity in this DP job. Specify selection id and required aggregation levels.

Use Transaction :

/SAPAPO/MC8E - Mass Processing: Change Planning

/SAPAPO/MC8G - Schedule Mass Processing

5. Create variant - Existing alerts can be deleted (Program: /SAPAPO/AMODAL_DELETE) before it is regenerated by using above DP job.

Use Transaction : /SAPAPO/AMON_REORG - Delete Database Alerts

6. DB alerts are stored in /SAPAPO/AM_ALERT database table.

7. Create alert profile using Alert Monitor -/SAPAPO/AMON1 - Select appropriate Time Horizon, Planning Version Planning Book/Dataviews, Selection ID, Alert Type and Thresholds,

Use Transaction : /SAPAPO/AMON1 - Alert Monitor /SAPAPO/AMON_SETTING - Alert Monitor Settings

Also please do refer SAP Note# 495166 - Tips and Tricks for Handling Alert Monitor

Hope this will help.

Thank you

Hi,

Please check that for the criteria defined in the alerts (threshold level), are those being met i.e. MAPE in your case in the corresponding planning book/data view.

Hi Ganesh,

All alerts are configured in alert monitor /SAPAPO/AMON1. You need to create your alert profile under APO: Forecast Planning.
