How to get resources info from SAP ERP to cProjects

[Former Member]

Hi guru’s,

I am not able to find either business partners or any resources in cProjects which were defined in SAP ERP.

My questionnaire here is

How to get resources name and number in cProjects from SAP ERP?

I am looking for assigning task and Roles to a resource in the ‘roles’ tab available in projectsStructureproject elements.

Could anyone please help in resolving this issue?

If any document is available then please mail to sureshj9@gmail.com

I will give full points for appropriate response. Thanks in advance.

Hi

What Neil said is right.

You can refer to my wiki

https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/HR_CATS_Cproject+Scenario

I have explained the flow in this post.

After doing HR integration in oo_central_person or in SPRO

you need to transfer HR master to cProject > business partner by may be running a report HR_sync

then you have HR data with name and details like qualification etc (based on infotypes maintained in HR) to cProjects.

Use this number to assign to role.

then assign to task.

Dont forget to award points if useful

Hi Niranjan,

Thanks for your reply. Still I am not able to resolve issue. I am not able to view resource details. Could you be more elaborative on your info.

I have entered BP data in SAP easy access. But no details are coming into cProjects.

Please provide me step by step process.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Guru's,

I have been getting the following error message while searching for a resouce in cProjects:

Person is not known in WFM Core

Message no. PRP043

Procedure

Persons are created via ALE distribution or using a report in WFM Core.

Please help me in resolving the problem.

Hi Suresh,

Are you using WFM core with cProjects?

If not, then please make changes in your Role Type.

Goto IMG --> Collaboration Projects --> Resource Management --> Basic Settings for Project Roles -->

Define Project Role Types

Select the appropriate role type and untick the 'WFD Server' option.

Now when you try to assign a business partner to this role, you will not get the mentioned error message.

Alternatively, if you are using WFM Core, you would need to maintain the same for each business partner before you assign it to a role.

Let me know if this helps.
