Hi,
updating employees in CATS with WBS will produce actual cost in WBS, however the CATS with network and activity is not producing actual cost in activity rather it is only producing confirmation. Is there anyway I can use CATS to update actual cost to cost activity without having confirmation?
Thanks
Hi All,
from time to time make the business department a mistake by the Posting of the costs on the WBS-element. They choice the
the rong wbs-element.
Now can we repost/rebook this cost on the right wbs-element.
Thank you so much for you Ideas and answers.

Hi
Is there a report of some sort where I can view the settlement rule against the NWA for a project or a suite of projects? We are checking settlement rules as there are some who drag and drop NWA in the structure without check settlement rule.
I know I can do this individually with project builder etc, however this will take some time.
Kind regards
Wendy

Hello Every body,
I am new to SAP.
Can anyone advise me towards some useful information on Results Analysis,
Am aiming to understand Results Analysis from SAP Cost Controlling perspective and how the data is collected and calculated?
I have already studied all the sap library documentation related to Results Analysis, there are so many transactions mentioned and i m very much confused.
There is much theoretical information available but no practical implementation info is available.
Kindly guide me through the entire process and sequence of the Results Analysis
Like which t-code should be executed first and what are the pre-requisites and whatu2019s the output of each transaction/process.
what exactly is the need, uses and the output of the Results Analysis?
if any body could provide some readymade notes like pdf etc, APART FROM THE SAP LIBRARY it would be great.
Hoping for an early response and Thanking in advance.

Hello,
I am investigating the possibility to plan and control the development costs at the company with the SAP PS or PPM. Thus, the goal was having team members booking their labor hours to the projects (Maybe through CATS?), so that project managers could have a detailed and exact overview of the costs of their projects attributed to each person and department. However, since a development project takes place at several sites, with team members in different plants working for it, I have been told that with SAP PS it is not possible to do it because at PS a project would be attributed to one Plant, and therefore people in other plants, from the same company, would not be able to book their labor hours to the projects. Is that really so? Is there a way to bypass this problem? Can different WBSs at the same project be attributed to different plants?
Thanks a lot for any help!

Hello friends,
Request your inputs for my queries below-
1 1. Once we post timecards in CAT2 against to a WBS, we can see actual costs booked against to the same WBS in CJI3. Then how exactly, the t-codes CAT5 and CAT7 makes difference, as the costs were already flew into PS (in CJI3)? What is the significance?
2.2 When we post time cards in CAT2, it book costs on a WBS. How does it picks cost elements for postings? Where exactly, these cost elements would be maintained?
33. Can we restrict cost element while we use CAT2 (means, can we use our own selection of cost element for posting in CAT2)?
Thanks,
Sumanth.

SAP PS Gurus,
I have a requirement to show capitalized, expense, R&D, in the same project. Currently, we have a standard project def with the appropriate settlement profile assigned for each standard project def., because the settlement rules are different for each type of the operations. How can this be
set up in SAP PS to support this requirement?
Thanks
Shirley
i want a report that should display the details of actual budget consumed against the WBS, just like when we run Tcode:S_ALR_87013558 and select GOTO>>Line Items>>Project commitment line items and we get all the break-ups for commitment budget with matching figures.
However same options is not available for details of actual budget consumed with matching amount figures. Is there any option for this requirement??how we can get the details for actual budget consumed against any WBS??
Hi'
I hope some of you can help us 
Our solution:
* Material A is added at Contract i VA41
*A project with network and activities is created automatically (assembly processing)
*The project are changed to fit each delivery - end up with 2-30 WBS-elements
*CATS-confirmations at the network activities are created in CAT2 and transferred to the project through CAT5
*DP91 capture CATS-confirmations with activity type A = material A, B = material B and C = material C (material determination)
The DMR contain 1 line item per activity type
Now we would like the DMR to have these line items:
WBS 1 with activity type A
WBS 1 with activity type B
WBS 1 with activity type C
WBS 2 with activity type A
WBS 2 with activity type B
WBS 2 with activity type C
WBS 3 with activity type A
and so on.
How can we solve this issue?
The WBS-elements have different names for each project. We had not succes to create a Set reflecting this.
How can we make the setup resulting in the mentioned DMR line items.
I hope for some input.
Thank you in advance

SAP Gurus,
I am working on a project to replace Primavera with CA PPM for PLC. Resources will be assigned in CA PPM and sent to SAP via integration interface. In order for the resources to enter time for a WBS or multiple WBS for different projects, where in SAP should resources be stored?
Resources will need to charge time to projects using CATS.
Thanks
