General presentation

Objective of the application

i-MEP stands for Integrated Manufacturing & Energy Performance

The I-MEP application provides to business the possibility to analyze the production's target cost, actual cost, the variance for each cost item in process order, the cost collector, and to determine energy consumption and CO2 emission during production process.

BI manufacturing reports will replace house solutions :

• on RCS (WP1) : programs ZWPP40A/B/C
• on Solvay (PF1) : program Z1K_MATCOST (Prix de Revient)
  
  

Describe in a few words the content of application + link with functional or technical specifications (google links) done with during the project or linked with PPMO

Tool Leader + IT leader of the application: Name of project or main leader for the application + reporting coodinator

Rules & Explanations

Source tables

Table ZWPPMCKOST / i-MEP extraction table

This table exists on both systems PF1/WP1, but the structure is slightly different.

Following additional fields exists for PF1 table, but not for WP1 table : append ZWPPMCKOST_EXTRA

This table is filled via program XXX and contains only the values for the previous period (The table is emptied before each loading)

Table ZZX_CO2_COEFFS / Energy and CO2 Emission Coeffcients

This table exists on both systems PF1/WP1, and is filled manually by Energy Carbon team

Table TKKH2 / Origin Group Texts in CO Object

This table exists on system PF1 and contains texts for Origin Group.

View ZBW_V_TKKH2 / Origin Group Texts

This view exist on system PF1 and references table:

View ZBW_V_CKPX / Cost Objects Hierarchies

This view exist on system PF1 and references tables:

• CKPE / CO-PC Cost Object Hierarchy: Individual Objects
• CKPH / Master Record: Cost Object ID Number
• CKPHT / Texts for CKPH

View contains all levels of Cost Object Hierarchy as attributes, as well as the associated texts.

View is filtered on CKPHT Language = English. (obsolete)

Tables are filled from table KKPHIE. (To be confirmed)

View ZBW_V_ETABR3 / Establishment Texts

This view exist on system PF1 and references tables:

At datasource level (PF1/WP1)

For PF1 only:

• DataSource DTS_ZBW_V_TKKH2, based on view ZBW_V_TKKH2, returns Origin Group Texts.
• DataSource DTS_ZBW_V_CKPX, based on view ZBW_V_CKPX, returns Cost Object Attributes & Texts.
• DataSource DTS_ZBW_V_ETABR3, based on view ZBW_V_ETABR3, returns R/3 Establishment Texts.

Datasource : DTS_ZBW_V_ZWPPMCKOST based on view ZBW_V_ZWPPMCKOST

Controlling Area (0CO_AREA)

The controlling area is unique on PF1 ( value CHEF), but not on WP1 ( Z006, Z025, Z026...)

The controlling Area is not available on ECC side specific tables, but, in order to match the BI referential, this information is necessary to get referential attribut and texts (example 'Cost Center' C_COSTCTR, 'Profit Center' C_PFT_CTR)

To get the information extractor are based on specific view with follow the business rule given : 

• A plant belongs to a single company code (link found in table T001K where 'Valuation Area' (BWKEY) corresponds to the plant (WERKS)
• A company code belongs to a single controlling area (link found in table TKA02 / field 'Business Area' (GSBER) is always empty) 

Cost Component Structure (0CCOMPSTRUC)

The Cost Component Structure id is not unique on PF1 (on WP1, only id Z1 is used), and the id is not part of source table ZWPPMCKOST.

The append ZEXTRA_FIELDS has been added to extract structure of the data source (ZOXDF10019). Fields belonging to the append are field within class ZDTS_ZBW_V_ZWPPMCKOST.

To get the information :

• by default set id to 'Z1' except for exception managed in table TCK07 'Costing Variants for Organizational Units'
• Exceptions for certain company codes (BUKRS)
  • ignore value '++++'
  • keep only one valid record by company code (the latest)

Cost Element Texts (0COSTELMNT) & Statistical Key Figure (0STKEYFIG)

Some Cost Elements do not fit the standard format for this Master Data - coded on 6 characters, they stand for Statistical Key Figures that are not used.

Statistical Key Figures are now loaded using generic datasources 0STKEYFIG_ATTR (Attributes) and 0STKEYFIG_TEXT (Texts).

Texts from Statistical Key Figures are then copied in Cost Element texts.

DataSources exist in SOLVAY PF1 Dataflow only.

At business level (WBP)

GBU (CPFCTR1_2)

The GBU available for reporting is BFC Global Business Unit (CPFCTR1_2)

• For RCS WP1 data, the GBU is taken from the Profit Center (Navigational attribut 0PROFIT_CTR__CPFCTR1_2)

• For Solvay PF1 data, the GBU is calculated at Business Level following below rule
  
  Case 1: Profit Center (0PROFIT_CTR) & Company Code (C_COMPCDE)are filled

  Case 1a: Profit Center is 10 characters long + starting with 'F' + plant is filled

  • Concatenate Profit Center, Company Code, Plant
  • Read MasterData Technical Business Area (C_TECHBA) and get GBU (CPFCTR1_2)

  Case 1b: Profit Center on 5 positions starting by 'D' 

  • Concatenate '00000', Profit Center, Company Code
  • Read MasterData Technical Business Area (C_TECHBA) and get GBU (CPFCTR1_2)

   Case 2 : Plant (C_PLANT) & Material (C_MATPNT2) are filled

  • Read MasterData Material Plant (C_MATPNT2) and get Profit Center (0PROFIT_CTR)
  • Then apply Case 1a and Case 1b

   Case 3: Controlling Area (0CO_AREA), Cost Center (C_COSTCTR) are filled

  • Read MasterData Cost Center (C_COSTCTR) and get GBU (CPFCTR1_2)

Exclude activity and Balancing movements (C_EXACBMO)

The flag is set to 'X' when :

• cost element, first 2 positions = '98'.
• index 1 = '9' and origin, first 2 positions = 'KL'.

This rule is settled in transformation at Business Level for SOLVAY PF1 only

Material Ledger Costs Split (K_MLWRT)

For SOLVAY PF1 (DBCOPP01/04) and Flat Files (DBCOPP03), Material Ledger Costs are split between 3 components:

• Material Ledger Fixed Costs (K_ML_FC)
• Material Ledger Variable Costs (K_ML_VC)
• Material Ledger Dependencies (K_ML_DEP)

From Flat File, for index1 = 3 or index1 = 9, we check that K_MLWRT is not null.

At all times, K_MLWRT = K_ML_FC + K_ML_VC + K_ML_DEP.

Origin Split (C_ORIGIN)

In DBCOPP01/04 (SOLVAY PF1), Origin details have been split between 5 infoObjects:

• Origin Activity Type (C_ORICACT)
• Origin Cost Center (C_ORICCTR)
• Origin Order (C_ORICORD)
• Origin WBS Element (C_ORICWBS)
• Origin Material (C_ORIMAT)

Their value is dependent on the Index1 value and C_ORIGIN structure:

• For index1 = 1 or 3, C_ORIMAT = C_ORIGIN. For index1 = 5 it is the same but we check first that LOGSYS/C_ORIGIN exists as C_MATNR2.
• For index 1 = 5, C_ORICACT = 0ACTTYPE (Activity Type) and C_ORICCTR = C_COSTCTR (Cost Center)
• For index1 = 9, depending on the first 2 characters of C_ORIGIN:
  • When 'KL', C_ORICCTR = C_ORIGIN+6(10) / C_ORICACT = C_ORIGIN+16(6)
  • When 'KS', C_ORICCTR = C_ORIGIN+6(10)
  • When 'OR', C_ORICORD = C_ORIGIN+2(12)
  • When 'PR', C_ORICWBS = C_WBS_EL2 where C_WBS_EL2__C_OBJNR = C_ORIGIN+0(10)
  • When '00', C_ORIMAT = C_MATNR2

Origin Group (C_HRKFT)

Origin Group is collected as a subchain of CO Key Subnumber (C_COKSNB)

Origin Group Texts are collected from SOLVAY PF1 by datasource DTS_ZBW_V_TKKH2.

Total Actual Quantity Conversion

Total Actual Quantity is converted to fill the values of the following attributes of Activities DSOs (DBCOPP04 for SOLVAY PF1, DBCOPP05 for RCS WP1):

• Total Actual Quantity Standard (K_ACQTSTD)
• Total Actual Quantity in EP (K_ACQTYEP)
• Total Actual Quantity in Scope 1 in CO2 (K_AQT1CO2)
• Total Actual Quantity in Scope 2 in CO2 (K_AQT2CO2)
• Total Actual Quantity in Scope 3 in CO2 (K_AQT3CO2)

Conversion is based on Real Factors DSOs (DBCOPP10 for PF1, DBCOPP11 for WP1) and ZBW_V_CO2_COEFFS DSOs (DBCOPP07 for PF1, DBCOPP08 for WP1).

If coefficient Real Factor Conversion (K_RFACONV) exists in Real Factors DSO, TAQ Standard and TAQ in EP are calculated using that coefficient. Otherwise, they are calculated using Local To Standard UoM Conversion (K_UOMCONV) and Primary Energy Coefficient (K_ENGCOEF), respectively, from ZBW_V_CO2_COEFFS DSO.

TAQ in CO2 are always calculated using coefficients CO2 Emission Scope (K_CO2EMI1/2/3) from ZBW_V_CO2_COEFFS DSO if they exist.

Interface

The user can choose an Excel flat file from his local computer by using the "File to load" browser.

Once the file is choosen, the user can preview the content to be uploaded from his selected file by clicking on "Preview" icon.

Preview is color-coded: green entries are correct, while yellow ones return warnings and red ones return one or more errors.

 Once the file is choosen, the user can start the content checking of the file by clicking on "Check file" icon.

If errors and warnings exists, they wille be listed with a description of the error at the end of each line.

Once the file content is checked and all errors corrected, the user can load the file to BW application server (AL11) and raise the event PC_CO_IMEP_15 by clicking on "Load file" icon.

 The event PC_CO_IMEP_15 triggers the process chain PC_CO_IMEP_15 - "IMEP: META - T - Main (Flat Files)".

This process chain load the user's file data into IMEP BW application.

 The user can view the history of loaded files by clicking  on "History" icon.

 The user can exit the program by clicking on "Exit" icon.

Sub  Chains

Loading frequency

IMEP is loaded daily. Current month is loaded every day while Previous month is loaded from 01 to 08 only.

Events on Solvay ECC (PF1) and RCS (WP1) starts BW Process Chains.

Flat File (Excel file) can be loaded manually in transaction ZIMEP_FILE, at will.

Average performance

if possible, give some information on average process chain duration, amount of data loaded and total data volume example: daily process chain loaded in 30 min, weekly chain loaded in 1h15, with around 2k to 10k lines in DELTA mode for a total of 10M lines in cube. The purpose is to give a general overview of the volume of data managed y the application

Record Keeping

Business requires 3 years of historical data in addition to current year. (Y to Y-3)

The number of years to keep can be maintained in Global Filter (C_GLBFILT) masterdata (Stream IMEP / Rule RCS_HISTO or SOLV_HISTO/ Counter '001')

Older data are deleted from DSOs/Cubes at the end of the RCS and Solvay process chains (PC_CO_IMEP_01/08/20/25).

Data availability for go live (01.2017)

From Solvay PF1 : 2014 + 2015 + 2016

From RCS WP1: 2015 + 2016 (2014 was not available anymore as year was archived in WP1)

Recurring procedure

Reload data on a given period

1. Update data in C_GLBFILT (Stream = IMEP). You need to change the period in ***_LOAD and ***_DEL to the period you are using. 
   Depending on what you are reloading, *** is either SOLV or RCS:
   
2. The previous step is usually done by program ZBW_IMEP003 when the Process Chain starts. Thus, you need to disable the variant used in the PC to keep the period entered manually.
   To do so, open the Process Chain you will use for the reload (PC_CO_IMEP_01 for Solvay and PC_CO_IMEP_08 for RCS) and check the first program.
   Variant will always be ZVAR_PER_***:
   
   Open the variant to Change it, check the "Initialization?" button:
   
   Save and leave. Don't forget to come back to uncheck the button once you are done.
3. Run the Process Chain using Function Module (SE37) RSPC_API_CHAIN_START, keep an eye on the process.

Planned Evolution

Detail planned major evolution if already known. Example: complete decommissioning of application is planned in 2017 / Extension to solvay perimeter planned in 2nd semester of 2016
