16.1.1 OPS_PS_CI_2: Business Function Project System, Extended Usability
and Performance (New)
Use
As of SAP enhancement package 6 for SAP ERP 6.0 (EA-APPL 606 and SAP_APPL 606), the business
function Project System, Extended Usability and Performance is available. With this business
function, you can use the following enhancements in Project System (PS):
Performance Improvements in the Project Builder
You now have the option to load projects and networks without loading specific data. You can exclude
this data on the Project Builder: User-Specific Options screen. The performance improvement options
are:
- Exclude Material Master Data
If you select this option, material master data is excluded when you load a project or a network in
the Project Builder. However, note that all relevant data and fields are displayed when you access
material component details (in the detail or overview screens), or when you explicitly perform a
material availability check.
- Exclude Purchase Order History
If you select this option, purchase order (PO) data is excluded when you load a project or a network
in the Project Builder. If this option is selected, the following fields are no longer displayed in the
Project Builder:
- GR Quantity (including the unit) on the Purchasing Data tab
- PO Exists on the Procurement Parameters tab
- PO IDs on the Procurement Parameters tab
- Received (including the unit) on the Procurement Parameters tab
Performance Improvement Options in the Project Builder and Network Transactions
You can use a BAdI to override performance-related user options that have been specified in the Project
Builder. Note that in the network processing transactions, the system loads material master data and the
purchase order history by default; and this BAdI allows you to exclude this data. For more information,
see Customizing for Project System under Structures -> Operative Structures -> Network ->
Enhancements for Networks -> BAdI: Options for Improving System Performance.
Display of Nonarchived and Archived Line Items
You can display nonarchived and archived line items in the Display Project Actual Cost Line Items
screen. In the line item reporting of Project System, you can access line items from the archive and the
database in parallel, if you use the archiving object CO_ITEM.
