|---|---|---|---|
UDF | Links to WEB SAP Gui New configuration tools was created which allows generating UDFs that will bring links to SAP WebGUI transactions for selected objects. | ||
Users/Employees | Transfer skills during employee transfer Employee’s skills are transferred automatically during Employee transfer. No additional customizing is required to enable it. Check users functionality | ||
Warehouses | Improve 'Storage Location Owners' handling Two new transactions were created /PACG/ECM_WRHSE and /PACG/ECM_WRHSK which allow defining FSM relevant warehouses (regular and consignment) and also link additional owners - all in single transactionActivity | Add a work center determined for technician to an activity object Work center determined for technician during processing of inbound activity will be stored in activity record. Additionally new customising option was added in /PACG/ECM_STCD ‘Overwrite service order operation's work center’. It controls if technician’s work center should be populated to the operation Extend activities' customizing - number range definition SAP gives possibility of defining multiple number ranges within single number range object. It is now also possible in the Connector to assign separate number ranges to the activities depending on the company they belong to. To learn more check /PACG/ECM_ACTIVE. Technician unassignment in SAP It is and was possible to automatically release activity by assigning technician to an operation in SAP. It is also possible now to do opposite - unassign activity from planning board by removing technician in service order’s operation | |
Customers | Contact deactivation should delete contact person record or end its validity period FSM offers functionality of deactivation of contact persons. To keep FSM and backend system aligned Connector can delete deactivated contact person or end its validity period Transfer default customers unconditionally Customers set as default (e.g. in transaction /PACG/ECM_SCTDD - Service call typ - Default values) can always be sent to SAP FSM to the company assigned in the above transactions, even if their sales area/company code/no object assignment would indicate that they shouldn’t be sent. In certain scenarios, those generic customers usually do not have sales area but are still required for every company. | ||
Activity | Add a work center determined for technician to an activity object Work center determined for technician during processing of inbound activity will be stored in activity record. Additionally new customising option was added in /PACG/ECM_STCD ‘Overwrite service order operation's work center’. It controls if technician’s work center should be populated to the operation Extend activities' customizing - number range definition SAP gives possibility of defining multiple number ranges within single number range object. It is now also possible in the Connector to assign separate number ranges to the activities depending on the company they belong to. To learn more check /PACG/ECM_ACTIVE. Technician unassignment in SAP It is and was possible to automatically release activity by assigning technician to an operation in SAP. It is also possible now to do opposite - unassign activity from planning board by removing technician in service order’s operationConnector Cockpit | Add object number to IDOC cockpit In the Connector Cockpit, in the IDOCs report, next to already presented information also an object’s key to which IDOC relates to is displayed. 'Set to processed' functionality changed. Authorization check on SMQ1, SMQ2, ST22 and SWU3 from /PACG/ECM_COCKPIT_S and /PACG/ECM_COCKPIT Authorization check was added to the Cockpit. From now on user who wants to run standard transaction through it must have necessary authorizations Authorization object Z_IDOCRSND In addition to authorizations checks mentioned above new authorization object was added. It is required to execute ‘RESEND’ from the Connector Cockpit | |
FSM Connector (general) | Disable use of HASH as optional functionality Due to its overall functionality and impact on Connector’s performance the hash mechanism is no more optional and can’t be disabled 'Force sending' for all sending transactions ‘Force sending’ option was added in all sending reports New business object /PACG/ECM4 In order to handle attachments added to service checkout new business object was implemented. 'Use WFM' should not be used | ||
Materials | MM06 flag for deletion on item level triggers no event Setting deletion flag in MM06 transaction will now trigger relevant events and send deletion flag for corresponding objects to FSM Add config option steering batch determination New option ‘Batch if any plant matches’ added in /PACG/ECM_ICONF. It allows checking in all relevant plants (all plants assigned to given company) if given material is batched or not and if in any of them it is then it will be sent to FSM as such | ||
Service Order | Add Material consumption as Component in Service order New options added in the /PACG/ECM_CMAT2. It gives now possibility to added consumed materials to components of related order not only as text items but also as stock and non-stock items Check if customer lock before sending service order Checks on service orders and activities got aligned to avoid situations when order is transferred to FSM and activity not No update of control key in service order Only control keys listed in the transaction /PACG/ECM_CKDET can be changed by Connector during operation update Send service call ONLY The program /PACG/ECM_SCALL gained new option ‘Send Service Call Only’. By default service orders are sent with related objects like time tasks, activities and others. With this option enabled only service order objects are sent to FSM | Cockpit | Add object number to IDOC cockpit Changes in FSM Cockpit - possible use cases of 'Set to processed' functionality Add object number to IDOC cockpit Authorization check on SMQ1, SMQ2, ST22 and SWU3 from /PACG/ECM_COCKPIT_S Work center determination based on work center of functional location In the configuration transaction /PACG/ECM_SCTD |
Time Effort/Expense/Material consumption/Stock transfer | New BAdI /PACG/ECM_BADI_COSTS created This badi can be used posting costs in reference to service order/operation. It lets overwriting original operation with other, determined based on custom logic | ||
Warehouses | Improve 'Storage Location Owners' handling Two new transactions were created /PACG/ECM_WRHSE and /PACG/ECM_COCKPIT | ||
FSM Connector (general) | Disable use of HASH as optional functionality Due to its overall functionality and impact on Connector’s performance the hash mechanism is no more optional and can’t be disabled 'Force sending' for all sending transactions ‘Force sending’ option was added in all sending reports New business object /PACG/ECM4 In order to handle attachments added to service checkout new business object was implemented. | ||
Add a badi for operation determination | Work center determination based on work center of functional locationWRHSK which allow defining FSM relevant warehouses (regular and consignment) and also link additional owners - all in single transaction | ||
UDF | Links to WEB SAP Gui New configuration tools was created which allows generating UDFs that will bring links to SAP WebGUI transactions for selected objects. | ||
Users/Employees | Transfer skills during employee transfer Employee’s skills are transferred automatically during Employee transfer. No additional customizing is required to enable it.
