BSI Tax Factory upgrade from 9.0 to BSI 10D directly??

Hi Experts,
I know most of the BSI customers have upgraded from Tax Factory 9.0 to BSI Tax Factory 10.0 as BSI 9.0 support is going to be end of this November 30(2014)..We understand that there is new feature came up BSI 10.0 which is Browser based login to the BSI 10 which runs based Tomcat XML services which needs to be installed on the central windows server server and should be up and running for 24/7..which became a little budget issue for our cllient..
Client dont want go for buying new windows servers for installation of Tom cat services exclusively..Because of all these constraints we have decided to go to BSI 10D which is having GUI logon feature like BSI 9.0 intead of Tom cat xml services for browser based which is released on 26th July 2014..
So here My question is ..Is there a possibility to upgrade from 9.0 to 10d directly?? If yes what is the procedure to upgrade from BSI 9.0 to 10d..
Your inputs in this Upgrade can be really highly appreciated
Thanks
Naresh

BSI Tax Factory Upgrade 8.0 to 9.0

Hi BSI,
We are upgrading our BSI tax Factory from 8.0 to 9.0. We are running:
Windows 2008 R2
SQL Server version 10.50.1777
I'm able to connect to the database using login TF90 through SQL Server Management Studio, the ODBC Data Source Administrator and the TaxFactory Client is connecting fine too.
But when running report RPUBTCU0 from the SAP system , its caught under ABAP dump-> SYSTEM FAILURE.
Looking at the error.txt.

We managed to solve this by changing tf90server.bat file.
from - I:
CD I:\BSI\Server9.0
tf90server.exe %*
To - I:\BSI\Server9.0\tf90server.exe %*
Now we could run report RPUBTCU0 without error.

BSI Tax Factory Upgrade

We are upgrading BSI Tax Factory from 8.0 to 9.0. Starting with BSI Tax Factory version 9.0 the standard schema no longer reads this parameter of the UPAR1 function. We have to define the BSI Tax Factory version in two Customizing activities,
Specify BSI Tax Factory version for customizing settings and Specify BSI Tax Factory version for master data and tax calculation. The second one is feature 10BSI and it looks like we have to maintain this feature when we use two versions of
SAP.We are planning to use only 9.0 after our upgrade and still we have to maintain this feature? In the first step specify tax factory version has start date and which date we have to enter ? start of the new payroll period and if we specify start of the
new payroll period when it retroes will it have a problem. Please explain whoever has done the upgrade.
Thanks for your help.

You should be fine leaving feature '10BSI' as is (return ' ' ) as it will then use BSI version defined in new config table. Retro back to period prior to BSI 90 upgrade should be OK as it will also uses BSI 90 engine (i.e. date in config table is compared with system current date, not payroll start / end date .

BSI Tax Factory Upgrade:HR Support packs

Hi All,
We are starting with upgrade of BSI tax Factory from 8.0 to 9.0. And as per SAP main note '1469858' for upgrade, the support
pack required is 'HRSP61' but we currently have 'HRSP59'. Also, CLC 61 was applied for 2010 year end activities.
So, with CLC 61 present, would it be possible to upgrade to 9.0 without upgrading to HRSP 61 ?
In other words I want to confirm if CLC 61 includes the Tax Factory 9.0 updates.
Thanks,
Avinash

Hi Avinash,
I just updated relevant information for your query in the following thread:

BSI Tax Factory 10.0 upgrade

Hi Gurus,
We are in the process of upgrading BSI tax factory 10.0. Could you please let me know what should be the start date of changes in table VV_T5F99K2_US_BSITF for parameter BSITF

Hi Arun,
I would say you use same date already there and just replace V90 under value by V10 in your development system.
Run few tests for regular, retros, off-cycles with deductions/payments changes in past, generate claims, etc for different states, locals and compare same scenarios test results for V90 in your quality against V10 in development to see if functionality does not vary.
You can switch functionality from V10 to V90 in case there are too many differences in tax calculation at any time although there should not be issues as both would use check date to calculate taxes.
I would recommend you can look at discussion below for any queries on BSI TF10.

BSI Tax Factory 8.0 with 4.6C

Hi all,
Our client is in the process of implementing net payroll. We are on 4.6C During the process of implementation, BSI has released the new Tax Factory 8.0. BSI has announced that, they will stop support to Tax Factory 7.0 by the end of this year.
My question is does 4.6C supports Tax Factory 8.0. I am unable to get any clear information through OSS notes too. The OSS notes released in this regard is too vague and don't specifically mention the compatability.
If it's an upgrade from Tax Factory 7.0 to 8.0, SAP has given some pre-requisites to apply as patches, but if its a new installation of Tax Factory 8.0, SAP OSS note is silent on any service packs and applying patches to 4.6C. They have given information only for Enterprise versions 4.7 and above.
Does any one has any idea about this situation or any information of compatability of BSI Tax Factory 8.0 with 4.6C as a new installation.
I appreciate your time and look forward to get some help in this regard.
Thanks

Yes, BSI 8.0 is compatible with 4.6C
There is a note out there - 1022656.
You either go to HR SP C6 or implement the attachment within the note.

BSI Tax Factory on ECC 6.0 Unicode

I'm looking for some help with using BSI Tax Factory on an ECC 6.0 Unicode System. Does anyone have any experience with using BSI Tax Factory on the Unicode version of ECC 6.0? Were there any special steps that were taken in order to make it work? I spoke with someone at BSI and they told me that Tax Factory was not Unicode compliant and that I should talk to someone at SAP to find out what steps needed to be done to make the system work. While I inquire further with both SAP and BSI I thought I would post something here as well to see if anyone could offer any assistance.
Thanks in Advance!
-Nick

Hi Nick,
BSI TaxFactory is not unicode complaint. But in the past we have had customers who converted from non-unicode to unicode and had no problems with BSI TaxFactory.
Export the BSI related data from the DB and import it back after the unicode conversion. And everything works fine!

BW Upgrade from 3.5 to 7.3 directly

Hi All,
We are planning to upgrade one of our client systems from 3.5 to 7.3 directly. After checking with SAP we have come to the conclusion that we can upgrade our system directly to 7.3 version without going to 7.0 and then to 7.3 process.
But now my question is what are the security related work we are going to perform after the 7.3 upgrade as the older version 3.5 authorization concept is not supported in the 7.3 version.
Kindly suggest if any one has performed the direct BW upgrade from 3.5 to 7.3.
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
We have started to perform the BW upgrade activity. After performing the pre-Upgrade steps we are starting the Upgarde. When we were trying to toad the SAPUP as described in the guide we have got the below error :
To start the Upgrade :
Login as QSECOFR user load the upgrade tool
Command : QSH CMD('/<DVD mount directory>/DATA_UNITS/UM_SAPCAR_OS400_PPC64/loaduplib <SID>')
   ******    SAP Upgrade Control Program - Loading tool libraries ...    ******
   SAPCAR: processing archive /bwupgd/BWUpgradeSW/InstMasterUpgrMaster/51042312/

   [: 001-0062 Syntax error evaluating expression: primary not found.
   Fixing file system authorities ...
   Checking IGS file system settings ...
Finished sucessfully.
So we had raised the SAP message for the loading issue then SAP recommended us to run the below commands twice and error will be resolved :
QSH CMD('/QOpenSys/usr/bin/sh -x /<DVD mount directory>/DATA_UNITS/UM_SAPCAR_OS400_PPC64/loaduplib <SID>' > /usr/sap/<SID>/loaduplib.trc 2> /usr/sap/<SID>/loaduplib.err')
Which I did and then :
2. ADDLIBLE SAPUP
3. STARTUP SID(BWD) TYPE(*ABAP) DVDPATH('<DOWNLOAD DIR>') UPGDIR('/usr/sap/<SID>/upg')
I can see that the JOB is started and when I start the GUI on browser using http://<HOSTNAME>:4239
Its not opening the upgrade GUI.
Please some one help me in resolving the issue as AS400 is new to me and for the 1st time that I am working on this OS.
Thanks in advance.....
Thanks & Regards.

BSI Tax Factory 10.0 - SP level

Hi All,
Is it a recommendation or requirement to be at SP 65 (6.04) to apply the notes for phases I, II, and III?
What is the difference between 'Base HR SP' and 'Synch. HR SP' ?
What SP is required for the new tool (sync payroll tax data)? We would rather not update to SP65, then a month later need to update to SP8x?.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

BSI Tax Factory 10.0

I have completely installed BSI TF10.0.d and have begun testing in my development system attempting to use the 'Switch Concept' as outlined in SAP note 1519016. Up until this version, it has always worked fine. Now, the only version referenced in the log from my payroll simulation is TF9.0.j update level 146. Has there been any change that disabled this functionality? Am I missing something?
Best regards,
Michael

Where did you install Tf10? Stand alone server? Work station?

Can I upgrade from Mac OS X 10.0 directly to 10.4 on my iMac G3?

can i go from 10.0 directly to 10.4 on my G3, and will the install affect the 9.2 that coexists currently w/10.0? i have a hp inkjet working under 9.2 that i don't know will work w/10.4 and i would like to continue to have it available(i do have the mac install disc from hp which i believe will work w/osx).

You will need at least 256mb of RAM to run Mac OS X 10.4 (512mb or more is better). You'll also need sufficient free space on the hard drive. Be sure to install any required firmware before doing the update; I don't know your specific G3 iMac model, but here's a list.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117
Going from 10.0 to 10.4, it may be better to use the "archive and install" option rather than upgrading the existing installation. This gives you a fresh Mac OS X 10.4 System, rather than updating the existing System. Existing data, including the 9.2 System Folder will be preserved. It should not affect your ability to restart from that Mac OS 9.2 System Folder.
As a precaution, you should do the following. Back up your critical data. When you start up from the 10.4 Installation Disk, at the first Installer screen, go up to the menu and run Disk Utility. Use both the Repair Permissions and Repair routines (First Aid tab) on the internal drive.

Can I upgrade from Mac OS X 10.4 directly to 10.6?

This is my first Apple system and it is all rather new and strange compared to Microsoft PCs.

Fist, what kind of iMac do you have? iMacs cover over a decade of models which translates into a hundred people years! Go to the Apple in the upper left corner, then "About This Mac", then "More..." and copy and paste the basic information there into a reply (omit the serial number).
If you have an Intel Mac then you can upgrade to 10.6 directly. If you have a PPC Mac then 10.5 is the farthest you can go. In either case you need black, retail version discs, not grey discs that will onyl work in a specific Mac model. It is common to see grey ones for sales on the used market, so beware.
The information in this post will help with any version of OSX: Texas Mac Man, Leopard disc sources - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16207246

How can I upgrade from my OS 10.4.11 directly to 10.6?

by a single purchase of latest version?

Yes; purchase the 10.6.3 retail disc from the Apple Online Store.
That can normally be installed directly over Tiger, leaving your data, applications and settings untouched.
However, I have had two occasions when that didn't work and I had to erase the Macintosh HD before the install would complete, so make a full backup to an external drive first (you should always have a backup anyway).
Once you've got a good installation, you can update to 10.6.8 with the combo update.
This all assumes your Mac is up to spec for SL;
Other things to be aware of;
There is no Classic environment in Leopard or SL - Classic applications will not work.
If you have applications running on PPC code, you'll need to ensure you select Rosetta from the optional installs on the 10.6.3 disc.
You will almost certainly need updates for your printer and scanner drivers if they're available - I had to change my printer.
Some applications will need updates, possibly paid-for ones (Adobe particularly). Check http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/ for possible problems.

BSI upgrade from 8.0 to 9.0

Hi Experts,
New BSI Tax factory 9.0 has been released recently. I would like to know what are the steps needed to upgrade tax factory from 8.0 to 9.0.
